• The Soul Bodies in the ruins began murmuring and then loudly called the bluish-black man their Palace Master.

Tens of thousands of Soul Bodies merged into a single Six-Star Dou Sheng, alarming the six clans before the fused soul flew away. It found Xiao Lin’s true body and spoke to him, shocking him with what it said.

• The six clans watched in fear as the Soul Bodies merged, while Hun Yan remained under attack from the bluish-black man, now an Eight-Star Dou Sheng.
• The Soul Bodies combined into one powerful being, and the six clans feared they could not stop it.
• The fused Soul Body ignored the six clans and flew toward Xiao Lin’s true body.
• Xiao Lin realized the fused soul had likely detected him when he lost control of his emotions, then was shocked when it spoke.

Xiao Lin learned from a fused Soul Body that the ancient Myriad Formation Spirit Palace had fallen because of an Extraterrestrial Evil Race Demon Emperor. The Palace Master had killed the invader by sacrificing himself, but the demon's remains corrupted his body and gave rise to the blue-black man.

• The fused Soul Body begged Xiao Lin to save the ancient Palace Master, and Xiao Lin asked to learn why the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace had been destroyed before agreeing to help.

Xiao Lin learned that the former Myriad Formation Spirit Palace had been destroyed after its Palace Master, Shi Lingdao, sacrificed himself to stop an Extraterrestrial Evil Race Demon Emperor and became a dangerous new soul. After Xiao Lin agreed to put an end to Shi Lingdao’s suffering, he approached the battle where Shi Lingdao was overpowering Hun Yan.

• Xiao Lin learned that the strange energy turning people into Red-Haired Monsters was an imperfect form of Demonic Qi left behind after the Demon Emperor’s death.
• The merged soul explained that Shi Lingdao had built the obsidian altar to weaken himself, but the energy it drew out infected the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace and led its people to seal themselves away.
• Xiao Lin realized that opening the former sect and letting the six clans enter had disrupted the safeguards, allowing Shi Lingdao’s newborn soul to take control and threaten the Dou Qi Continent.
• Xiao Lin resolved to end Shi Lingdao’s suffering and accepted the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace’s legacy, prompting the merged soul to acknowledge him as Palace Master.
• Xiao Lin learned Shi Lingdao’s name and former strength, then saw that Shi Lingdao was overwhelming Hun Yan with his Spirit Array Master techniques.

Shi Lingdao defeated Hun Yan with the Fallen Thunder Sword Spiritual Formation and revealed that he was a Spirit Array Master, a lost legacy on the present-day Dou Qi Continent. He trapped Hun Yan in the Ninefold Soul-Locking Formation to capture his soul and learn about the world outside.

• Shi Lingdao cast the Ninefold Soul-Locking Formation around Hun Yan to capture his soul.

• Shi Lingdao mocked Gu Nanhai and the others as they debated whether to fight or flee, while he kept attacking Hun Yan with the Ninefold Soul-Locking Formation.
• Hun Yan weakened by his injuries and the formation’s attacks, then chose to self-destruct rather than be captured.
• Hun Yan’s explosion destroyed the Ninefold Soul-Locking Formation and sent a shock wave at Shi Lingdao, who was too occupied to stop Hun Yan’s soul from escaping.
• Hun Yan’s soul fled toward the entrance, but Xiao Lin reached out with a giant hand and captured it.

Xiao Lin captured Hun Yan’s Heaven Realm Great Perfection soul after Hun Yan’s self-destruction and refused to accept his offer to end their feud. When Shi Lingdao demanded the soul and threatened the six clans, Xiao Lin transported himself and Shi Lingdao to another space, leaving the clans astonished by his mastery of the formation method.

• Xiao Lin compressed Hun Yan’s soul into a ball and ignored Hun Yan’s pleas and promises to end the conflict with the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace.

• Xiao Lin declared himself the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace Palace Master and said the original Shi Lingdao was dead; Shi Lingdao reacted furiously.

Xiao Lin and Shi Lingdao fought a fierce Spiritual Formation duel, layering powerful formations until their battle consumed their strength and shattered the surrounding Void. As Shi Lingdao believed Xiao Lin was nearing his limit, Xiao Lin revealed that he had already achieved his objective and claimed victory.
