He left the settlement with a better understanding of fire laws and a stock of Sun Essence Iron, but concluded that the dangerous land was an unreliable route out of the Despair World.

• Saine traded Energy Crystals and Sage's Stones with the Red-Footed Centipede for most of the next Energy Tide's harvest.
• Zi You again offered to help Saine leave the Despair World if he joined the Abyss World, but Saine ignored the recruitment attempt.
• More than two hundred years later, Saine and Wall-E's research robots observed the Spark Rule Dangerous Land's Sun Essence Iron eruption.
• Saine transformed into his Ash Demon true form and explored the rising Fire Element Energy Tide before withdrawing in its third year.
• Saine concluded that each eruption corresponded to a fire Rule Anomaly caused by a medium-sized or larger plane's destruction, making the dangerous land an implausible escape route.

• After several decades, Saine unearthed a white shell fragment nearly ten thousand meters below the ruins and brought Tourmaline's sea pearl near it, causing the fragment to glow and display patterns.

Saine left an ancient oceanic civilization relic with a damaged seashell containing an incomplete technique for controlling Sea Beasts, which he planned to give to Bai Xing. He then reached the Austia Civilization Relic, found it scarred by battles, and prepared to seize it for his future experiments.

• Saine studied the seashell’s fragments about the Hai... Yun civilization and found an incomplete cultivation technique that could inspire his Mental Strength research.
• Saine decided to bring the sea race cultivation method to Bai Xing, whose ability to command Sea Kings made it especially suited to her.
• After finding nothing else of value, Saine left the oceanic relic and continued toward the Austia Civilization Relic, which he intended to turn into his Mechanical City.
• Saine found the Austia relic heavily damaged and covered in battle scars, while Zi You denied that Abyss World creatures were responsible.
• Saine asked Zi You to help him seize control of the relic and promised to triple her Magic Potion supplies; Zi You demanded rare potions and the method Saine used to compress Gongsun Wudi’s power, and Saine agreed.
