Within the Glazed Land, Huizang forcibly opened the Desire Realm Heaven, awakening the Desire Realm Heaven Demons one after another. They appeared within the Glazed Land, wreaking havoc everywhere.
However, because of the Buddha-Words Barrier, these Desire Realm Heaven Demons could not leave the Glazed Land. They could only tempt the living beings within it, drawing them into a vortex of desire.
And within the Glazed Land, only Shi Ying, Jinghui, and the others remained.
