• After the ceremony, Huo Yuhao changed out of his formal robes and left Heaven Dou City with the Snow Empress and Electrolux for Sunset Forest.

Huo Yuhao, the Snow Empress, and Electrolux discovered that a vast sea of poisonous flowers was killing soul beasts in the Sunset Forest. As Electrolux considered how to use the flowers without destroying them, he noticed their uniform age suggested the valley’s growth had been influenced by an outside force.

• Huo Yuhao and his companions entered the Sunset Forest, where the Snow Empress said she believed he could change the destruction of soul beast habitats.
• Electrolux traced the forest’s growing barrenness to deadly miasma and identified the distant sea of Jade Phosphorus Seven-Absolute Flowers as its source.
• The Snow Empress cleared the poison fog and protected Huo Yuhao as the three reached the flower-filled valley, where thousands of poisonous flowers included ten-thousand-year Jade Phosphorus Nine Absolute Flowers.

• Electrolux proposed using some flowers to create undead plants but insisted that at least half remain to preserve the valley’s ecological balance.
• Electrolux observed that the Jade Phosphorus Nine Absolute Flowers had nearly identical cultivation and suspected that an outside force had shaped the valley’s growth.

Huo Yuhao, Snow Empress, and Electrolux crossed the poisoned flower sea and discovered the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well hidden in the Sunset Forest. When Huo Yuhao approached the well, the Infernal Delicate Apricot woke and attacked them with flames, but a towering chill rose from within the fire.

After learning that Niu Tian and Tai Tan were waiting at Clear Sky Castle and that the Immortal Herbs guarded Tang Sect inheritances, Huo Yuhao took the Poison Use Technique and confronted the Aromatic Silk Beauty about her assumptions about him.

• Huo Yuhao used the Great Desolate Imprisoning Heaven Finger to intimidate the Aromatic Silk Beauty and demanded answers about Tang San’s descendants.

• The Aromatic Silk Beauty realized Huo Yuhao’s identity and protested that he was nothing like the gentle, love-struck person Niu Tian and Tai Tan had described.

Huo Yuhao advanced his Spirit Talisman Master cultivation and began investigating whether qi was the underlying essence of soul power and medicinal energy. He decided to use the Life Creation Talisman Array to study qi and considered turning it into a furnace that other Soul Masters could use.

• Huo Yuhao absorbed Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew, stabilized his Spirit Talisman Master realm, and advanced to the advanced level.
• Huo Yuhao tried refining medicinal herbs with the Life Creation Talisman Array and detected medicinal qi, then exploded the array while attempting to condense soul power and spiritual power into a pill.
• Huo Yuhao proposed that soul power was one manifestation of qi and that cultivating qi directly might help Soul Masters and Soul Beasts escape the limits imposed by Soul Rings.
• Huo Yuhao chose to use the Life Creation Talisman Array as a Qi Refining Furnace and study qi through medicinal herbs and metals.
• Electrolux suggested that Huo Yuhao refine the array into a usable furnace and involve the Heaven Dou Empire in researching qi.

Huo Yuhao uncovered the dragon bones and demigod-level dragon souls beneath the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, then dealt with the immortal herbs before testing whether the Silver Dragon King's Scale could call to the souls. The spring showed no response at first, but a sudden change began as Huo Yuhao started to give up.

• The Snow Empress warned Huo Yuhao that the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well's springs were too dangerous to enter, and Huo Yuhao learned through Heartstring Resonance that dragon bones and incomplete dragon souls lay below.
• Huo Yuhao exposed the aromatic silk beauty's plan to use the dragon souls against them and ordered the Snow Empress to uproot her and the infernal delicate apricot.
• The aromatic silk beauty revealed which herbs had served Tang San, and Huo Yuhao let the other herbs remain while the Snow Empress took cold-attribute plants and seeds to the Far North Core.
• Huo Yuhao used the Great Desolation Scripture and the Far North's fortune to nourish the herbs and encourage their propagation.
• Huo Yuhao lowered the Silver Dragon King's Scale into the Ice Spring to call to the dragon souls, and a sudden change erupted after nothing happened at first.
