• Xu Jingming confirmed the creature’s death and flew toward Su Qingli.

Xu Jingming found that a dead Void Creature’s Mental Strength had trapped Su Qingli in an illusion, so he took her out of the Space Turbulence Layer and used Spirit Nourishing Fluid to wake her. Su Qingli opened her eyes, but her flushed face and seductive gaze left Xu Jingming baffled.

• Su Qingli woke up flushed and breathing rapidly, then called Xu Jingming with an uncharacteristically seductive gaze.

Su Qingli awakened but remained trapped in a lust illusion caused by the Void Creature's Mental Strength, and Eva warned that the illusion could permanently damage her if it continued. Unable to control her Mental Strength or resolve the illusion alone, Su Qingli agreed to let Xu Jingming help her, and she embraced him as her consciousness began to fade again.

• Eva realized that the Spirit Nourishing Fluid had also strengthened the Void Creature's Mental Strength rooted in Su Qingli's Mental Sea, leaving her awake but trapped in an illusion.

• Xu Jingming explained that he needed to enter Su Qingli's Sea of Consciousness, but she said she could not stop her Mental Strength from resisting the illusion.
• Eva advised Su Qingli to resolve the lust illusion rather than suppress it and warned that prolonged exposure could permanently damage her.
• After Su Qingli said she did not know how to resolve it herself, Xu Jingming offered to help, and she agreed before losing focus and hugging him.
