Beside the Lake of Life, Di Tian explained that he had saved Tang Chuan partly for Rui'er and partly because he saw hope for the Soul Beast Tribe, then asked him to heal someone once he reached Di Tian’s level.

• Tang Chuan understood that Di Tian was investing in him as a possible way to heal the Silver Dragon King’s wounds from the Asura Divine Sword, but pretended not to know.

Tang Chuan followed Xiao Rui'er into a cave in the Star Dou Great Forest and met the imprisoned Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, whose vast cultivation had made it a resource for the forest’s powerful beasts. The silkworm begged Tang Chuan to free it, then resolved to seize this possible chance at freedom despite doubting he could break Di Tian’s restraints.

• Xiao Rui'er told Tang Chuan how Xiong Jun captured the nearly million-year-old Ice Silkworm and how Di Tian imprisoned it so the beasts could absorb its energy.

As Di Tian and the other Ferocious Beasts rushed to investigate, Xiong Jun attacked the unconscious Tang Chuan in a rage.

In the City of Slaughter, Tang San reached level sixty and vowed to destroy Tianxing Academy and take revenge on his brother when he escaped.

Meanwhile, Titan Giant Ape and Sky Azure Bull Python blocked Spirit Hall’s reconnaissance squad, forcing it to retreat and report to the Pope.
