• Starlight Hall began auto-resurrecting at Wan Ling Mountain Summit and sent Ye Qingxuan an early warning, prompting him to power the Dongxuan City Guard Great Formation.

In Xingluo City, Xingze Jun witnessed the immense celestial phenomenon caused by the clash and ordered an investigation, resolving to break through and uncover Dongxuan City’s secrets.

• Gu Daoxu admitted defeat and led the Treasure Pavilion away while the Starlight Hall continued fighting to suppress the Shocking Heaven Bell outside Dongxuan City.
• Bai Li questioned Xingze Jun about leaving after the East Xuan Auction, and Xingze Jun identified the phenomenon above Dongxuan City as the result of Seventh-Rank Void Glimpse Realm power.
• Xingze Jun ordered Bai Li to investigate Dongxuan City and vowed to visit once he had broken through.

Xingze Jun chose not to intervene, telling Bai Li that Xingluo City would wait for the right moment as he continued studying the Dragon Fish.
