With the World Tree's petals missing from the Eye of the Heavenly Pool, the gathered cultivators emerged and several of Ye Qiubai's companions advanced in cultivation. Deputy Hall Master Lin demanded the divine treasure and ordered Ye Qiubai's group back to the Sacred Hall for a search, prompting Mu Fusheng to warn them to flee.

• At the bottom of the pool, Ye Qiubai and the others found the World Tree's petals gone, and they suspected He Mengshen had taken them.

After the group purified the corpse puppets, Kong Zhuxin led them toward the fallen Banan Divine Kingdom, while He Mengshen watched events unfold from the Supervisory Sacred Hall.

Xiao Hei arrived at the Nine Nether Underworld for the Nether Lord's succession and met candidates who doubted he belonged there because he could not use the Power of Reincarnation.
