Blind and barely able to move, he salvaged weapons and corpses from Crystal Island while resolving not to invoke the god again unless he had no other choice.

• Yang Yi realized the Mother of Ten Thousand Limbs had destroyed Crystal Island merely by appearing and checked his status, finding that he had gained nothing from the summoning besides a Burning Giant's Heart and severe penalties.

Yang Yi returned with legendary creature remains and other loot, only to discover the Maw of Gluttony had eaten most of the corpses and was growing stronger. Su Na investigated his crystal-shattered body and began planning the Flesh Reshaping Plan, while the Burning Giant’s Heart revealed that it could sustain him with a body of flame.

• Yang Yi and Su Na counted the recovered items, then Yang Yi discovered the Maw of Gluttony had eaten six of the eleven legendary creature corpses.

• Su Na and Yang Yi agreed that he would monitor his sanity and she would wait until he recovered before considering the Stone of Truth.

Yang Yi checked the ship’s overflowing supplies, then tested several corpses on the Execution Rack to learn their Hunt effects. Near the designated coordinates, he deployed the Twilight Veil and received new weapons from Cui Xiya, leaving him with two Terrifying Screech Cannons and plans to sell the weapons.

• Yang Yi upgraded Spatial Storage Items to increase the ship’s capacity and decided he would refund buyers if the crystal diamonds he had sold turned into corpse fragments.
• Yang Yi used a sewn Chest Devourer as a Hunt and found that it increased capacity by 50,000 and doubled the chance of catching treasure chests.

After settling the crisis, he sold a powerful sword and planned to explore the Death Plague Sea and contact the Deathbirth Society while waiting for Yu Dawei.

• Shen Guanquan found that his unused crystal diamonds had turned into corpse chunks, and Yang Yi received a flood of refund requests from buyers.
• Yang Yi calculated that he owed 9.07 million Conch Coins, while buyers who had already used the diamonds gained mutated buildings and weapons with unusual effects.
• Shen Guanquan led a task force to the Musician, where Wang Yuan had subdued the ship with a suona before guards tranquilized him.

• Zhang Zhi directed the Iron Brotherhood to focus their fire on the sea monster's tentacles, but a powerful mechanical tentacle cut an ironclad ship in half.
• Yu Dawei summoned the Iron Will and ordered Zhang Zhi to fire the Whaling Harpoon Gun, launching Yu Dawei into the sea monster so he could attack it from within.
• Three hours later, the sea monster surfaced dead, its body partly converted into rusty machinery by Rust Disease.

• Xu Da sped across the desert in the Gale while the Salt Knights pursued him.

• Yang Yi bought Stealth Capsules, gave each of the three of them 30, and browsed forum posts about special Expansion Buildings.

• The Deathbirth Society’s commander reviewed footage showing Crystal Island sinking and a Beak-Masked woman, a robot, a Light Fairy, and an octopus-like monster aboard a Skeleton Ship.
• The commander guessed that the crew belonged to the Radiant Holy Church and that a Paladin had resolved the Crystal Island incident.

The Deathbirth Society watched a strange creature from afar and chose not to approach, while Yang Yi prepared to receive a newly assembled body. Su Na revealed that she had used her own flesh and lent him his original right eye, leaving him furious as the surgery was about to begin.

• The Deathbirth Society Captain guessed the creature in the footage might be a Paladin and ordered his crew not to approach it.

• Su Na explained how she had made the bionic limbs and organs using compression casting and Flesh Printing Technology.
• Yang Yi examined the prepared body parts, whose attributes varied and whose use could cause severe rejection.

• Su Na rapidly implanted the bones in Yang Yi’s head, then restored his eye, teeth, and tongue while tiny spiders repaired his flesh with the Limb Restoration Spell.

• Yang Yi reattached his right hand with magic, transformed it, and used it with his other hand and tongues to suppress the heart while Su Na continued operating.

Yang Yi survived the surgery and rebuilt his chest around the Burning Giant's Heart, gaining a fully restored, transformed body. As he celebrated his recovery, Su Na demanded that he return her right eye.

• Yang Yi stopped Su Na before she finished the surgery and left the cabin with his chest still open to release the Burning Giant's Heart underwater.
• Yang Yi used Limb Restoration Spell to rebuild his chest, and tiny spiders replaced his blood vessels with black vessels that carried fire from the heart.
• After fifteen minutes, Yang Yi's chest was stitched shut, his Qi and Blood began recovering, and he returned to the deck with a complete wolf-transformed body.

• Su Na told Yang Yi they would begin the second round and demanded that he return her right eye.

• Yang Yi suspected the request might be a trap, ended the exchange without revealing his intentions, memorized the coordinates, and later noticed a familiar book mentioned in World Chat.

Yang Yi uncovered a hidden message in Volume Nine: Scorching Muscle Hell, which suggested that the Death Plague infected were imprisoned inside the artificial satellite. When Three Eyes revealed the satellite aiming a weapon at the Nightmare Star, Yang Yi warned the crew, and the ship narrowly escaped the devastating blast.

• Yang Yi bought the pages of Volume Nine: Scorching Muscle Hell from a player, who leaked their conversation and sparked rumors about Yang Yi's preferences.
• Yang Yi shared the covers of two other volumes and said the book series contained a major secret he would reveal after verifying it.

• The Nightmare Star used the Great Sea Lung Jet to leap clear of the target zone, and the satellite's beam blasted a huge hollow in the sea where the ship had been.

The Deathbirth Society ordered Gilbert to eliminate or drive away Yang Yi, fearing his unstable condition and power could create a dangerous new Death Plague. A satellite attack damaged the Nightmare Star, and Yang Yi survived while worrying that the Burning Giant's Heart was making him increasingly quick to anger.

• Headquarters sent Gilbert a recording of the Nightmare Star and ordered him to eliminate or drive away its target at any cost.
