Long Zhanye entered the devastated Mingyue Hotel and drew the Sea God's Divine Consciousness Fragment from Tang Wutong, but it fused with him instead, forming a new brand with Medusa's mark. The burst of light distracted Niu Tian during his battle with Zhongli Wu, leaving him gravely wounded as he struggled to escape with Xiao Qi.

• Long Zhanye found the Mingyue Hotel in ruins and Shangguan Wei'er tried to stop him from reaching Tang Wutong upstairs.
• Long Zhanye entered Tang Wutong's room and used his divine powers to draw the Sea God's Divine Consciousness Fragment from her Sea of Consciousness.

Long Zhanye escaped the Holy Spirit Cult with the Sea God’s Divine Consciousness Fragment and Niu Tian’s severed arm, then returned safely to the Evil Monarch Soul Master Regiment. He shared five Soul Bones with Ye Guyi, who absorbed two Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bones and reached level ninety-two.

• Ye Guyi absorbed the two Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bones and raised her Soul Power to level ninety-two; Long Zhanye stored the remaining three for later.

After returning to the Body Sect, Long Zhanye learned that a Sun Moon Empire ambush had devastated the sect and that Heaven Dou was nearing defeat. He proposed disguising the sect as conquered territory under his command of the Evil Monarch Soul Master Regiment while he worked toward becoming a Level 9 Soul Engineer, but the elders feared Heaven Dou would fall before he could intervene.

• Long Zhanye returned to the Body Sect and learned from Great Elder Golden Roc that Heaven Dou City had fallen and the sect had lost three elders while Du Busi was grievously wounded in an ambush.
• Long Zhanye told Du Busi and the surviving elders that the eight Sun Moon Divine Needles could deter attackers temporarily but would eventually be exposed as imitations.
