Ye Buyu remained alive but trapped as [Nightmare] announced its plan to regain its peak, and the city began evacuating as the Doomsday Tower sounded its alarm.

• Su Wuwei said he had stopped himself from becoming [Sun's Sorrow] and given himself his name, creating a closed time loop with no traceable origin.

Ye Buyu prepared to leave the Present World with Hold Up the Heavens, and Little Wan awakened to open the Myriad Worlds Silent Palace. Little Wan joined the group, but her attempt to pretend she did not know them only made the experts more suspicious.

• Ye Buyu and the others fled through the barrier into the World Behind the Door, and Wei Changming announced that the Present World would begin the Purging plan and fortify its territory.

• Ye Buyu asked Little Whale to stop so Wan Lan could study the wind energy, and the group waited an hour for her to finish.
• Wind and Thunder King entered the Thousand-Wind Ancient Road but saw only the ancient winds and wondered whether Hold Up the Heavens had already left.

[Wind and Thunder King] encountered a toll collector on the Thousand-Wind Ancient Road, and Wen Ling paid for him to travel to Judgment. Meanwhile, Little Whale brought six people into a war-torn world, where Little Wan casually caught and returned a missile.

• [Wind and Thunder King] learned that passage on the Thousand-Wind Ancient Road required Thousand-Wind Coins or costly materials, and the collector first demanded a Level Ten Calamity core.
• Wen Ling paid ten Thousand-Wind Coins and directed the reluctant [Wind and Thunder King] to Judgment, warning that he would be in danger elsewhere.
