After his bullying of the cult’s members drew Ye Xishui’s attention, he told her that he was stuck at level sixty-six and needed help overcoming the bottleneck.

Long Xiaoyao advised Zichuan to use a powerful Head Spirit Bone as a fulcrum to balance the powers of destruction and life and eventually condense Soul Cores. Zichuan decided to seek the Evil Eye Tyrant’s Head Spirit Bone and entered the Demonic Forest, where he began fighting off its Soul Beasts.

• As Zichuan prepared to seek another way, the true God of Destruction appeared in a powerful Divine Sense form and made time and space seem to stop.
• The Evil Eye Tyrant Sovereign trembled in fear and reverence as its spiritual power collapsed before the God of Destruction.

• As Zichuan's Soul Cores began to crack, the God of Destruction used his remnant's final strength to stabilize them and urged Zichuan to complete their fusion.
