• Zhang Yuanqing reported seeing green sky lanterns arranged like the Big Dipper, and Xiahou Aotian identified the layout as a Seven Stars Formation with hidden formation eyes.
• After Zhang Yuanqing's eyes regenerated, Fu Qingyang led the group into the formation, where Xiahou Aotian recognized seven connected lantern patterns and identified their position as the Kaiyang Star.
• The group tested the lanterns and learned that leaving the candlelight or ignoring a descending lantern triggered lethal sword-qi attacks.
• Zhang Yuanqing destroyed a blocking lantern to gauge the attack, and the sword qi shattered his armored yin corpse and blinded him again.
• When the lanterns drifted east, the group ran after them, but sword qi rained down despite their staying within the lantern light.

Zhang Yuanqing and his team survived the Seven-Star Lantern Formation’s sword rain by learning to perform the Yu Step, but discovered they had only minutes to find its hidden cores before the formation turned deadly. They began searching the lantern formations after Zhang Yuanqing’s golden light dispelled the concealing smoke.

• The Seven-Star Lantern Formation’s sword rain injured Zhang Yuanqing, Demon Eye Heavenly King, and Princess Yinyao, while Fu Qingyang emerged unscathed.

• The Qin Dynasty Occultist warned that the formation would become a killing formation when the Dipper’s handle shifted to winter, and Xiahou Aotian confirmed they could traverse the spring formations safely.

Xiahou Aotian proposed exploiting dungeon spiritual-power infusions to grow stronger beyond the experience recorded by a Role Card, but Zhang Yuanqing learned the Three Talents Pill formula risked driving him mad and considered asking Old Clapper to improve it. Meanwhile, the Pure Yang Sect Leader began a covert investigation to discover Yuanshi Tianzun’s identity, and the Grand Protector refused to help.

• Xiahou Aotian explained that Zhang Yuanqing could devour other Spirit Realm Walkers’ spiritual power during a dungeon infusion, boosting his actual strength without changing his recorded experience or gaining level-up skills.
• Zhang Yuanqing gave Xiahou Aotian the Three Talents Pill formula, and Xiahou Aotian warned that it lacked a way to purify mental corruption and could turn Zhang Yuanqing into a lunatic.

Zhang Yuanqing manipulated Princess Yinyao into helping him persuade Lady of Three Paths Mountain to improve a dangerous pill formula, then obtained the revised instructions. As he searched for a Star Official to use in an experiment, Li Dongze and Chen Yuanjun investigated a missing-person case while the Pure Yang Sect Leader gathered files on people connected to Yuanshi Tianzun.

• Zhang Yuanqing used a Yin Jade Crystal to convince Princess Yinyao to help him ask Lady of Three Paths Mountain to revise the Three Talents Pill formula.

Zhang Yuanqing and his companions learned that vampires, witches, and Icefire Demon Wolves were connected to the unopened Third District and investigated what had become of its ancient practitioners. They bound Augusto to Zhai Cai with a knight’s contract, then discovered Sovereign-grade treasures in the ruins.

• Augusto explained that vampires and witches descended from beings who stole Odin’s Rune magic, and that the Norse gods perished in Ragnarok.
• Zhang Yuanqing and his companions connected Ragnarok to an ancient calamity that devastated the Third District, while Uncle argued that the Icefire Demon Wolf arose during the disaster and wandered into the First District.

• The Holy Knight’s remnant spirit appeared and used its rules to force Zhang Yuanqing, Zhai Cai, and the chairman out of the void.
• The chairman fought the Holy Knight but was overpowered, then used the Explorer’s gear to hide the group briefly while he began preparing a sealing array.
• The chairman lured Augusto out of his coffin to distract the Holy Knight and explained that they needed to weaken and seal the armor.

• Zhang Yuanqing learned the set’s abilities and struck the Holy Knight with a lightning orb, blasting him backward.

Zhang Yuanqing, Zhai Cai, and the president defeated the Holy Knight and claimed demigod-grade items from the vault, including golden Knight armor and a sealed Wind Mage item.
