• Li Han explained that Silver Moon could become the Bamboo Cloudswarm Swords' sword spirit and activate their preserved soul skills, and Silver Moon agreed to the painful process.
• Li Han activated the sword spirit formation, and Silver Moon turned into green smoke and merged with the nine swords; after a powerful Soul Power fluctuation, all nine swords fell to the ground.

The next day, Ning Fengzhi arranged to buy talismans in bulk, but Han Li declined the offer on his master’s behalf and showed him two more kinds.

• Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo agreed that the talisman maker’s value to the sect could exceed their own and urged Ning Fengzhi to recruit him.
• Ning Fengzhi suggested that Rongrong’s friendship with Han Li might help bring him into the sect, and Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo objected until he clarified that he would not force her into marriage.
