> Resúmenes de The Unclouded Soul
Xiao Yao examines the dragon beads and is horrified to find that the Dragon Essence Pearl has been replaced by an Illusion Beast. This revelation explains why Long Zhi failed her tribulation; she had lost the pearl's sacred protection. To make matters worse, Long Zhi reveals before her death that she was the one who, disguised as Ao Hen, killed Hong Ye’s father to prevent Xiao Yao from being distracted by human emotions.
The Dragon Palace falls into a state of panic, as the treasure house's barrier can only be bypassed by those with dragon scales. Xiao Yao confronts Long Yu, who tearfully admits he allowed Hong Ye to see the pearl under the pretense of choosing a wedding gift, unintentionally facilitating the theft. Meanwhile, the great demons Ao Hen, Qiongqi, and Tengshe find themselves ensnared in a lethal magic array. As they sink into the shifting sands, Hong Ye sheds his disguise.
He expresses a long-simmering resentment toward the demon kind, who have enjoyed near-immortality while humans suffered under their oppression for tens of thousands of years. Hong Ye believes that with the power of the Yuli Spring, the era of human endurance is over. Despite his betrayal, he claims his actions were driven by a desire to obtain the power necessary to stand as an equal beside Xiao Yao for eternity.
Xiao Yao arrives at the Yuli Spring just after the great demons are submerged. Hong Ye admits that their wedding and the theft of the pearls were all calculated steps to reach the Spring and protect his race. However, he maintains that his love for her was a genuine instinct. He begs her to step forward with him so they can rule the world together, but Xiao Yao is repulsed.
She questions the value of immortality bought with the blood of others. Recognizing that Hong Ye has become the very tyrant he sought to overthrow, she kills him. Hong Ye does not resist, believing he owes her his life, but he worries that she will be left to face millions of years of loneliness without him. Returning to the Dragon Palace, Xiao Yao addresses her people.
She explains that the eight demon pearls, tainted by human desire, have transformed into the Kunlun Mirror. She shatters the mirror, warning that its fragments contain the world's suffering and must never be reunited. Xiao Yao uses the Azure Dragon's power to place Hong Ye’s spirit into a five-thousand-year slumber, hoping he will awaken without his human memories to atone for his sins among the demons.
Before dispersing her own consciousness to vanish from the world, she tasks Long Yu with three duties: to become the Monarch of All Demons, to guard the sealed locations of the three great demons, and to erase her name from the dragon clan records. Ten thousand years later, the Heavenly Mother observes that Xiao Yao’s sacrifice did not bring lasting peace, as the allure of the Yuli Spring caused the conflict between humans and demons to intensify.
Hong Ye finally awakens in the Demons' Valley and is greeted by an aged Long Yu. Although Hong Ye has no memory of the past, Xiao Yao eventually returns to find him. She remains firm in her choice to stay by his side, pointing out that he has already spent thousands of years serving the valley to repay his debts. The group realizes a new disaster is looming as the Kunlun Mirror fragments begin to stir.
To permanently seal the Yuli Spring, they must recover the eight shards, which represent the burdens of existence: Love and Separation, Lasting Resentment, Unattainable Desire, Unresolved Attachment, Birth, Aging, Sickness, and Death. They split into four groups to track the shards, with Ao Hen maintaining his competitive spirit by challenging the others to a race. On the human side, the appearance of four "disaster stars" in the sky sparks terror.
Bing Zhu of the Feiyu Guard restores order among the panicked Imperial Guards through force. Lu Pianpian and her allies, realizing the demons are moving to collect the fragments, decide to intercept them individually, targeting the entity at Mount Buchou first.
