• Ling Yi chose to wait until after midnight to draw a new entry and observe whether Qin Ya’s system recovered after its Main System function module was devoured.

When cultivators fled toward their location, Ling Yi chose to stay and let Qin Yuran fight the human devils for points and Devil Crystals.

• Hu Ji explained that the Demon-Subduing Secret Realm had formed around a fragment of the sealed gateway to the Demon Realm and that entry by someone above the Nascent Soul Realm could attract its powerful figures.
• Ling Yi dismissed the so-called original text as unreliable and recalled that he had devoured Qin Ya’s system module, Charm Demon Aura.
• Ling Yi, Qin Yuran, and Hu Ji saw thousands of cultivators fleeing as human devils approached, and Hu Ji suspected a devil tide had begun after another city fell.

• Ling Yi decided to stay and activate his Entries without killing the human devils, while Qin Yuran would kill them, collect Devil Crystals, and create Heavenly Dao Body clones for Ling Yi to strengthen.

Ling Yi and Hu Ji watched five Qin Yuran slaughter monsters in the Demon-Subduing Secret Realm while Ling Yi absorbed the rewards from across a vast area.

After returning from the Demon-Subduing Secret Realm, Ling Yi ended his partnership with Qin Yuran and planned to leave the sect, capture Qin Ya, and ascend to the Immortal Realm. Qin Yuran chose to travel alone until her state of mind was perfected, while Hu Ji promised to settle the Demon Clan's affairs and follow Ling Yi.

• Ling Yi noticed the Heavenly Mysterious Sect's patriarch, Situ Wan'er, watching him and recalled her connection to the events of the original story.

After most of the disciples died in the Demon-Subduing Secret Realm, Situ Men blamed Ling Yi, but Qin Yuran struck him down before he could act. Situ Wan'er intervened and tried to speak with the group, who planned to leave after watching the Cold Nether Sect arrive; Ling Yi stayed to test another suspicious character.

• After the Demon-Subduing Secret Realm closed, Situ Men demanded to know how his son Situ Jie had died and pointedly confronted Ling Yi.
• Qin Yuran shouted at Situ Men, sending him flying, and Situ Wan'er warned him that Ling Yi's group included someone at least in the Spirit Transformation Realm.

• Ling Yi reflected that his Clones had found more than twenty potential leeks at opportunity sites, while he and Hu Ji joked about what leeks were.

• Ling Yi used his Devouring Entry to drain most of Yuan Ming’s system energy, putting the system to sleep, then extracted its God Grade Sign-In function module and stored it.
• Yuan Ming learned that Ling Yi had found more than twenty people who transmigrated into books and planned to harvest their systems.

Yan Chaoyun recognized Ling Yi and questioned how he knew the future; Ling Yi suggested that he, too, had transmigrated into the book.

• Yan Chaoyun accused the Curiosities Pavilion of selling her a fake and demanded compensation and the genuine ugly stone, while Yan Yunxi asked the shopkeeper to make an exception.
