• Gui Mei gave Chen Jianjun a recording Soul Tool, and Chen Jianjun asked what Gui Mei needed him to do.

• A month later, Chen Jianjun met Xiao Bai near Sea God Island and told her he had come to see Bo Saixi.
• Bo Saixi summoned Chen Jianjun, who handed her the Soul Tool and told her to inspect it; after viewing its contents, she erupted in anger.

Chen Jianjun warned Bo Saixi that Chuan Ling wanted Sea God Island and that the island could not remain safe by staying out of mainland conflicts. After he left, Bo Saixi and the Sacred Pillar Guardians watched a Soul Tool recording that exposed the mainland alliance's betrayal, and they turned against Ning Fengzhi and Spirit Hall.

• Bo Saixi questioned Chen Jianjun about Chuan Ling's plans, and Chen Jianjun said Xu Xiao and the others wanted Sea God Island itself, not its people or inheritance.
• Chen Jianjun warned Bo Saixi that the island would face danger if it made the wrong choice, but Bo Saixi insisted Sea God Island would stay out of mainland conflicts.

• The Sea Witch watched the recording and condemned the people who had betrayed Sea God Island, and Bo Saixi ordered that they be crippled and expelled when they returned.
• Bo Saixi summoned the seven Sacred Pillar Guardians, showed them the recording, and heard them denounce Ning Fengzhi and Spirit Hall.

Bo Saixi and the Seven Sacred Pillars debated how Sea God Island should respond to Spirit Hall and Chuan Ling, then Bo Saixi decided to seek the Sea God's guidance. As Chen Jianjun fished, Bo Saixi summoned the Sea God, who appeared above the island.

• Bo Saixi heard the Seven Sacred Pillars argue for fighting the mainland powers, then explained that Chen Jianjun had shown little interest in an alliance and wanted Sea God Island and the Sea God's Divine Artifact.
• Sea Dragon Douluo suggested allying with Chuan Ling, but Bo Saixi warned that an alliance would not guarantee their safety and said she would seek the Sea God's guidance.

• Bo Saixi called upon the Sea God as blue-gold light rose from the Sacred Pillars and Sea God Island trembled.
• The Sea God appeared in the sky and asked what Bo Saixi wanted, while Chen Jianjun continued fishing without concern.
