• Lu Feng used the Aura Mimicry Technique on Pangu’s aura, and Tongtian suddenly looked outside from Biyou Palace.

Lu Feng then appeared in Luohu’s demonic world, while Hongjun gathered four Saints and prepared them to attack Luohu and claim resources that could help them break through.

• Tongtian sensed Pangu’s aura nearby and brought Houtu to investigate, leading them to Lu Feng’s territory.

• Lu Feng denied ever claiming to be Pangu and let his aura convince Luohu he was a powerful Chaos Lifeform.
• Luohu wondered whether Lu Feng had come from another chaos world, and Lu Feng asked if Luohu had already guessed his identity.

Lu Feng punished Luohu for testing him, then offered to help him break through to Dao Integration in exchange for everything in the world. Luohu hesitated over the price as Lu Feng warned that Hongjun would arrive within days.

When Di Xin arrived at Golden Ao Island seeking Lu Feng as his master, Tongtian mistakenly believed Di Xin had come to become his disciple and summoned him for an assessment.

In Zixiao Palace, Hongjun prepared the Four Saints for the coming battle against Luohu.
