• Kui Yong revealed himself to Feng He, who recognized the Imperishability Chapter and agreed to serve as his errand-runner rather than risk being killed.

• Kui Yong left Feng He behind and went to search for Huang Xiao, whose Longevity Chapter had helped prompt his early emergence.

• Kui Yong searched the surrounding terrain for traces of Huang Xiao and chose to take his time, hoping to obtain the Longevity Chapter before Huang Xiao learned he had emerged.

Huang Xiao and the others studied the fine-needle formations inside Mo Pozheng’s formation while the outer formation around the Divine Beast Holy Land neared collapse. Huang Xiao pushed to act before the Demon Hall could seize the divine beasts, but Xuanyuan Xing urged caution, leaving the group divided.

• Huang Xiao, Xuanyuan Xing, Shi Hen, and Li Bai compared their progress and found they had comprehended formations around only sixteen fine needles between them.
• The four realized they had no way to contact Xuanyuan Jade Butterfly and the others outside the formation.

After Kui Yong reinforced the Divine Beast Holy Land’s formation to prevent anyone from taking the Soaring Immortal Fruit out, Xuanyuan Jade Butterfly and Fan Zhuolang questioned his motives and strength.
