- Dongfang Taiyi and Blood Phoenix Ancient Emperor became Immortal Weapon spirits, while Boundless Heavenly Venerable and Duan De completed further transformations, and Li Ming began studying how to help others pursue longevity.
- Silver Dragon Emperor sought Li Ming's guidance and left for the Strange World, while Li Ming helped Blood Phoenix Ancient Emperor break free of his weapon and be reborn.
- Blood Phoenix Ancient Emperor left for the Strange World after failing to reach his Fourth Lifetime, and Dongfang Taiyi awakened, attained Emperor Enlightenment in his Third Lifetime, and followed him.
