• The Undead Holy Magic Cult bypassed the Star Luo imperial family and spread its new decrees throughout the empire and beyond, prompting factions to scramble for countermeasures.

The Undead Holy Magic Cult’s decree stirred reactions across the continent, while Dazhuang learned that older applicants could still study and villagers drove Pockmarked Zhao away for slandering the cult. At the cult’s headquarters, Huo Yuhao and Electrolux completed ten thousand Martial Soul Awakening Puppets and discussed how Magic-Carved Puppets could help the cult become self-sufficient.

• Huo Yuhao questioned why Electrolux was turning the Undead Demiplane’s native undead into Soul Beast and Soul Master undead when they already had enough Soul Rings.
