Lilith suppressed her power to remain in the Star Realm and searched the battlefield where Vivian had fallen, finding Vivian’s true spirit but postponing any resurrection. She then visited wounded Wizard Civilization leaders, including Dragon Mother, while fighting through her summoned forces rather than intervening directly.

• Lilith used the Self-Sealing Technique and Sealing Clothes to lower her power to Level-7 Early-Stage and remove the Astral Realm Will’s restraints.
• At Vivian’s place of death, Lilith gathered soul fragments and found Vivian’s true spirit, but decided to delay resurrection until she left the Star Realm.

• Dragon Mother complained that Lilith had not helped stop the devil emperor, who had carried a valuable treasure.

Lilith returned to the Wizard Civilization’s command headquarters with the exhausted Dragon Mother as the counteroffensive pushed the Evil Tide forces back. The Six-Winged Demon Ancestor ordered the Evil Tide legions to withdraw from Wizard World, leaving many of them to break out on their own.

• Dragon Mother collapsed from her injuries, and Lilith caught her and told her to rest.

• The Six-Winged Demon Ancestor and Mist and Haze Demon Ancestor used the Time-Space Crystal Diamond to escape with four Level-8 demon emperors, while Saine, Master Douglas, and other Wizard World Dominators attacked the Evil Tide forces left behind.

• The Ai Youlan Butterfly fleet combined its shockwave launchers with newly developed shells to immobilize Geluomuzi, whose pained roar reached Saine across the stars.

Saine arrived at the Titan Star Territory and found Baxia and the other allied Dominators safe, thanks in part to Yin’s intervention.

Saine visited the wounded God King Odin and the devastated Myriad Springs World Cluster, where Destruction Spring’s grief and fury had driven him to Level-8 Late-Stage strength. As Wizard Civilization continued reclaiming territory from the retreating Evil Tide, Saine and Aurelia watched the enemy’s distant forces, including those withdrawing with Sylvanas.

• Saine suspected Little Tenth and the Minghe Remnant Clan had gone to reclaim the Death Crown, and he considered how it might benefit dark magicians, Undead Magicians, and Lina.
• Saine learned that the Dark Flame Master had reappeared as a True Spirit deep in the Evil Tide occupation zone, so he ordered Dao Dali, Karl, Zi Lixiang, and the other Dominators to monitor him.
