Xiao Jin forced Yao Xiaotian and an old man to take him to the Nine Nether Underworld Python Clan’s Yellow Springs Stone Tablet, seeking the Yellow Springs Demon Saint’s soul techniques. Inside the tablet, Xiao Jin confronted the Demon Saint’s remnant soul, who was astonished by Xiao Jin’s Emperor Realm Soul Power and began examining him.

• The Yellow Springs Demon Saint questioned how Xiao Jin had Emperor Realm Soul Power at such a young age, and Xiao Jin complained about being examined.

Xiao Jin considered reviving Yellow Springs Demon Saint so he could recruit him, but discovered the necessary soul-restoring treasures cost more Breakthrough Points than he had. He offered the Demon Saint a deal and tried to convince him that a higher-quality Soul Infant Fruit could repair his remnant soul, leaving the Demon Saint reluctantly willing to believe him.

Medusa transformed from the Seven-Colored Sky Swallowing Python, sensed a summons from the lake, and was caught by Xiao Jin when she tried to flee.

• Hun Tiandi dismissed Hun Mie Sheng’s plan to wait for the thief to reappear and began considering how the Soul Clan could make up for the lost Soul Origin.

Meanwhile, the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan faced mounting defeats from the Pill Alliance, and Huang Tian sought a way to save his clan as Xiao Jin remained unreachable.
