• Hong Jun used the Jade Tablet of Creation Fragment to investigate Seven Killings, but every deduction identified him as the Seven Kill Star God, leaving Hong Jun to wonder how Di Tian had transformed his foundation.
• Greedy Wolf mocked Di Jun and slapped him repeatedly as Di Jun endured the humiliation and accused the Star Court of abandoning its past benevolence.
• Greedy Wolf slapped Taiyi and challenged him to repeat his accusations against Di Tian, making the gathered Innate Sacred and Supremes question whether the Di Jun Brothers had been lying.
• Luo Hou wagered that Hong Jun would open the Purple Cloud Palace to save Taiyi, while Di Tian said Taiyi’s hesitation had already damaged his credibility.
• Haotian Child announced that Hong Jun would begin the lecture early, and Di Tian led his companions into the Purple Cloud Palace.

• Luo Hou approached Hong Jun as Seven Killings and greeted him with a pointedly courteous apology.
• Hong Jun politely answered Luo Hou, hiding his unease over the possibility that Seven Killings was Luo Hou despite being unable to divine any trace of him.

• Di Tian called Haotian Child an arrogant servant who deserved death, while Haotian Child knelt and begged Hong Jun for mercy.

Hong Jun punished Haotian Child for closing Purple Cloud Palace early, then lectured on the Path of Quasi-Saint while Luo Hou identified its hidden flaws. As the lecture ended, Di Tian challenged Hong Jun to admit that the path contained a fatal flaw.

• Hong Jun agreed with Di Tian's accusations and ordered Haotian Child to kneel outside Purple Cloud Palace until the lecture ended.
• Hong Jun began his lecture on the Three Corpses and the Path of Quasi-Saint, while Di Jiang and the other listeners largely ignored him.

• Di Tian said he could create the required treasures, and Luo Hou noted that Hong Jun's lecture would give Di Tian a chance to reveal this advantage.
• After five thousand years, Di Tian loudly asked Hong Jun whether he had discovered the fatal flaw in the Path of Quasi-Saint.

Di Tian exposed a fatal flaw in Hong Jun’s Path of Quasi-Saint, turning the beings in Purple Cloud Palace against Hong Jun. Hong Jun gave Di Tian the All Heavens Celebration Cloud to repay him, while the gathered beings remained suspicious of his intentions.

• Hong Jun questioned Di Tian’s claim that the Path of Quasi-Saint contained a flaw and defended his deductions with the Jade Tablet of Creation.
• Di Tian explained that treasures used to sever the Three Corpses had to match the cultivator’s Dao and share the same root, origin, and Laws, or their origins could clash and destroy the cultivator.

• Zhu Rong accused Hong Jun of teaching a useless method that could have ruined the Myriad Spirits’ futures if Di Tian had not exposed its flaw.
• Hong Jun bowed to Di Tian, thanked him for revealing the mistake, and offered him the All Heavens Celebration Cloud, which Di Tian accepted.

Hong Jun watched the crowd turn to Di Tian and secretly resolved to use the Jade Tablet of Creation Fragment and his reserves from the Three Thousand Chaos Demon Gods to challenge him.

• Hong Jun relaxed after Di Tian called his earlier conduct a reckless mistake, but Di Tian then announced that the fatal flaw in the Path of Quasi-Saint could be resolved.
