Ning Rongrong proposed a chastity belt for Qian Renxue, but Chu Xiu persuaded her to help him target Qian Renxue instead, just as Qian Renxue called him outside.

• Tai Cai refused to let Chu Xiu call him master at first, but accepted him as his disciple after Chu Xiu insisted their bond was lifelong.

• Qian Renxue called Chu Xiu outside.

• Ah Yin confessed that she had explored the island and revealed that it was isolated, circular, over a hundred li wide, and contained varied terrain and extreme climates.

Chu Xiu discovered that he could cultivate magic power on the deserted island by absorbing energy from Spirit Rice and Ah Yin’s sap. After days of meditation, he formed a vortex in his dantian and created a flame with his magic power, leaving Ah Yin and the others astonished.

• Chu Xiu told Ah Yin, Qian Renxue, Shui Bing'er, and Ning Rongrong that he had made a promising discovery, but kept his theory of immortal cultivation to himself.
• Ah Yin, Shui Bing'er, and Qian Renxue used Spirit Beast blood to nourish the Spirit Rice field and wild apple tree, which produced mutated crops and seven mutated fruits.
• Chu Xiu and the four women ate the fruits, doubling the women’s strength and improving Chu Xiu’s mental power; he then gave Ah Yin the other mental power fruit.

• Chu Xiu demonstrated a flame produced without soul power and explained that he had condensed it using magic power.
• Chu Xiu told the women that magic power came from forming an energy vortex in the dantian, and Qian Renxue gained 10 Bond Value points after believing it could help them escape and challenge a god.

• Ning Rongrong and Shui Bing'er looked forward to cultivating, and Qian Renxue decided to begin practicing the next day.
• Chu Xiu announced that he and Ah Yin would sleep in the same room, shocking Ning Rongrong and Shui Bing'er.

Chu Xiu told Ah Yin about Tang San after pressuring her to call him husband, then spent the night with her. The next day, Qian Renxue proposed exploring the mountain summit for stronger sources of energy, and Chu Xiu decided to develop a method for cultivating spiritual energy.

• Chu Xiu made Ah Yin call him husband by promising to tell her about Tang San, while Ning Rongrong left and Shui Bing'er advised him to soothe her later.
• Chu Xiu told Ah Yin about Tang San's achievements and his conflict with him, and Ah Yin offered to make up for her son's wrongs before Chu Xiu spent half the night with her.
• The next day, Qian Renxue suggested that stronger spirit beasts gathered near the summit because something there attracted them, and proposed searching for energy-rich plants.
• Chu Xiu warned that exploring the summit was too dangerous and said he would work out a way to circulate spiritual energy through the body so the others could cultivate.
