• Chen Fan linked to Mo Wuyou in the [Future] and learned that their connection resumed according to when each side activated its token.
• Chen Fan asked Mo Wuyou to shout '[Rogue Cultivators Are Safe]' through a spirit-artifact megaphone.
• Before Mo Wuyou could speak, a voice from the void called him its lord and said it had waited for him for far too long.
