• He Butan led the Starlight Convoy onto Nine Nether and showed them Future Town on the Aberration’s back.

• He Butan revealed that the Spiritual Cultivation Society pursued him because he had stolen the Wish Grail, Curio number four, which could grant wishes.
• He Butan said the Grail could not end the apocalypse or sever Lin Yi’s connection to the Desire Mother Tree without an impossible price, and that severing the connection would kill Lin Yi.
• He Butan explained that resurrecting someone would erase their memories and require the death of one of their blood relatives, causing Zhu Cheng to abandon the idea of bringing Jiang Ya back.
• He Butan said wishing for potion ingredients would cost part of the wisher’s body, so Lin Yi dismissed the Grail as useless.

In the Void Hall, Kong Buyu learned that Lin Yi and Zhu Cheng were in the colossal Weird Domain and announced that the Fire God Convoy would soon arrive.

With rival convoys expected to arrive, he raced to gather materials and helped Zhu Cheng complete her collection so she could advance.
