Lu Yuan summoned Stonehide Lawachurls from his Void Realm to help bury the dragon remains in Dragon Valley, and their work brought him waves of energy and Dragon Souls. As Gu Yuena, Xiao Xiao, and Gu Qiu'er joined the effort, the Dragon God suspected that Lu Yuan came from a higher-order world beyond this universe.

• Di Tian proposed burying the dragon remains, and Lu Yuan agreed to find a way to speed up the work.

• The Dragon God secretly observed Lu Yuan cultivating and concluded that he seemed to come from a world of higher order than the surrounding universe.

Lu Yuan absorbed Dragon Soul Remnant Echoes from the buried dragon remains, which showed him visions of the Dragon Clan’s deaths and condensed into memory crystals. After returning to camp, he joined Gu Qiu'er and Xiao Xiao in setting up tents while the Dragon God remained uncertain whether to interfere with their journey into Dragon Valley.

• Wang Dong returned to the dormitory in anger after seeing Huo Yuhao accept food from Wang Chun’er, while Wang Chun’er played on his concern and blamed herself for upsetting her.

• Di Tian showed Bi Ji the Fire Dragon King egg, but Bi Ji found that her healing power had little effect on its depleted vitality.
• Gu Yuena used Life Gold to nourish the egg, which continued absorbing its power even after she stopped guiding it.

After the Dragon Egg replenished some of its lost origin from Life Gold, Di Tian brought it to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, where the Fire Dragon King began restoring it in the Sun Spring.
