• Ye Tian demonstrates overwhelming power and confidence. He rescues the Divine Phoenix Maiden, treats Chen Fan as no real threat, and shows little interest in hearing the mysterious remnant soul out.

• Ye Tian effortlessly destroys Long Nu’er’s first palm attack with a single finger. He then neutralizes her True Dragon Fist and withstands her spear techniques and divine abilities without injury.
• Long Nu’er’s attacks prove ineffective against Ye Tian’s overwhelming physical strength. He strikes her in the abdomen, pursues her as she flies backward, and stomps down on her, continuing to humiliate her.

• A black hole appears, followed by six mysterious heavenly roads—Gods, Immortals, Demons, Devils, Humans, and Asuras. A Daoic voice says opportunities and keys can be found along them.
• Ye Tian chooses the Asura Path, known for demanding slaughter and associated with the legendary Asura Martial God.

Character developments

• Ye Tian is increasingly cold, decisive, and domineering. He treats Long Nu’er as a captive, not an equal, and is determined to test the Asura Path.
• Long Nu’er remains defiant in principle, but her injuries leave her powerless. Her experience of being treated with contempt unsettles her, since she was accustomed to being revered as a princess.
