Bibi Dong absorbed the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's Soul Ring as the Evil God Pearl transformed it into a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring, raising her Soul Power to level eighty-four. In the God Realm, the Evil God King sensed her as a potential successor and proposed a bet to the Kindness God King over whether they would pass on their Godhoods and leave the God Realm.

As the spider tried to escape, Bibi Dong began using a lightning skill that Ling Jing recognized as the Dark Demon Evil God's innate ability.

• Bibi Dong gained a blood-red Soul Ring after absorbing the Dark Demon Evil Tiger's Origin Pearl, and wondered whether the Evil God's recognition meant she could inherit a Godhood.

Qian Jun and Jiang Mo carried Ling Jing and Bibi Dong away, leaving the battle’s outcome undecided.
