Little Medical Immortal revealed that the world now belonged to him and might recover, then vanished, leaving Lu Ye stranded on a barren peak with Yiyi and Amber.

Lu Ye entered a brilliant star within the Heaven and Earth Origin and experienced the life of Qin Zhao, a powerful cultivator whose memories revealed that the stars held the imprints and cultivation knowledge of the Dragon Ascent World's past inhabitants. He realized he could explore these imprints for techniques and insights, but the experience depleted his Mind Power, so he returned to his body and began recovering.

• Yiyi and Amber noticed that Lu Ye's soul had vanished from his body again and waited for him to return.
• Lu Ye witnessed Qin Zhao's life, from his birth and departure for the Refinement Pavilion to the sect's destruction, his revenge, and his death.

He entered and began examining its protected treasures, fascinated by the pavilion’s intricate formations.
