• Yun Feng spotted a patch of sparse moss on the cliff and inferred that Tang Hao had left the marks while climbing toward Ah Yin’s cave.
• Yun Feng climbed to the waterfall’s middle, secured Blue Silver Grass vines against the cliff, and cautiously entered the torrent to search for Ah Yin’s hiding place.

Yun Feng found Ah Yin in her hidden cave and uprooted her to take her away, then discovered and claimed the Spirit Bone Tang Hao had left there. Ah Yin could only watch helplessly as Yun Feng took both her and the treasure.

• Ah Yin worried that Brother Hao would return and find her gone, while Yun Feng left with her and the Spirit Bone.

Yun Feng escaped with Ah Yin and absorbed her Hundred Thousand Year right leg Spirit Bone in a secluded cave. As he cultivated, Ah Yin absorbed the energy he released, and the two began to resonate and merge.

• Yun Feng put Ah Yin in a box, tossed her over the waterfall, and climbed down by another route.

• Yun Feng and Ah Yin began to merge as Ah Yin’s influence turned the roots of Yun Feng’s hair blue and made his skin more radiant.

As they confronted how their bond had formed, they discovered they could hear each other’s thoughts, leaving them to understand a new connection called Soul Resonance.

• Ah Yin promised she could repay Yun Feng with anything if he agreed to help her.

• Yun Feng explained that Blue Silver Grass had infinite possibilities, while Ah Yin stared in disbelief at the armor covering him and his Martial Soul.

• Yun Feng covered his nose and mouth, then used his Spirit Skills to enlarge, armor, and empower the Blue Silver King vines as the Three-Leaf Orchid released bewildering gas.
• The Three-Leaf Orchid tore itself from the soil and ran, and Yun Feng let it get a short head start before his vines slammed toward the ground.

Yun Feng killed the Three-Leaf Orchid, absorbed its Spirit Ring, and gained a flight-based Rapid Speed skill that let him unleash devastating attacks. After recovering from an overpowered test, he headed toward Shrek to verify Tang San’s identity and continue advancing his plans.

• Yun Feng kept attacking the Three-Leaf Orchid until Ah Yin confirmed it was dead, then asked her to guard him while he absorbed its purple Spirit Ring.
• Yun Feng absorbed the Spirit Ring and changed its effect into the Sharp-Tailed Swift’s Rapid Speed, his fourth Spirit Skill.
