Ning Que is ecstatic about the successful bomb test, attributing the accomplishment to his original ideas. He asks his Fourth and Sixth Brothers to manufacture more bombs for the Tang military. His brothers support him, acknowledging his unique idea of using fire talismans with iron pots. Ning Que then takes Mu You to Yanming Lake. She immediately recognizes that it is a good place for formation.
Ning Que confirms his choice, explaining that the lake is the left key point of the God-Startling Formation, which is strategic for his impending battle with Xia Hou. Mu You promises to set up a protective formation around the lake within ten days. Long Qing arrives at the Sage's secluded mountain cave, seeking answers to his questions. The Sage senses Long Qing has seen the Cultivation Pill. Long Qing denies any selfish intent, claiming he only glanced at it.
The Sage says that the Cultivation Pill is rare, capable of dramatically increasing a cultivator's power. He adds that it is the last one. The Sage reveals that the final chapter of the Scroll "Sha" of the Almighty Book contains the formula for refining the Cultivation Pill. Li Manman advises Ning Que against letting hatred blind him. Ning Que declares that fighting Xia Hou is his destiny, regardless of the outcome.
Meanwhile, Long Qing borrows a medicine tripod from Uncle Yicheng to refine the Cultivation Pill. Uncle Yicheng advises him on the importance of a settled mind. Long Qing asserts that he craves power because he understands loss. Uncle Yicheng grants his request.
Ning Que takes Sangsang boating on Yanming Lake, explaining the abundant natural Qi due to its connection to the God-Startling Formation, in addition to the formation from his Seventh Sister, and secret weapons from his Fourth and Sixth Brothers. He tells Sangsang that if he fails to defeat Xia Hou, she should return to Wei City and seek protection from General Mashi Xiang. Sangsang insists on staying by his side.
Xia Hou, returning to the capital to resign his post, detours to West Shrine to meet the Hierarch, confronting him about the altered Cultivation Pill. Xia Hou says that he only used half of it to reach the peak of Tao of Martial arts but also has been suffering from its backlash. The Hierarch admits to the alteration, promising to remove the side effects only after Xia Hou defeats Ning Que.
He promises Xia Hou a welcome to Peach Hill and a happy life for Xia Tian if he succeeds. Xia Hou accepts the terms. After Xia Hou leaves, the Hierarch tells an aide that the other half of the Cultivation Pill's power is intended for Ning Que, implying his intent to eliminate Ning Que. Princess Li Yu visits Ning Que at his residence. She dismisses Sangsang to speak privately with Ning Que.
Li Yu attempts to sway Ning Que, informing him that Lord Zeng supports the Queen in the royal succession. She reminds him that Xia Hou, the Queen's brother, wields military power. Ning Que rejects her attempts to involve him in political schemes, asserting that the decision of succession rests with the Emperor of Tang. Li Yu then says that Chu Zhongtian and Wangyin did not attend Ning Que's housewarming. She advises Ning Que to keep his distance from the princess.
Later, Ning Que teases Sangsang about her ambition to become a Tang General. He boasts about his pride in his craft and in having Sangsang. Li Yu teases him about rumors linking him and Mo Shanshan, which he denies. Long Qing, struggling to refine the Cultivation Pill, seeks guidance from the Sage, who tells him that he must commit "painstaking efforts" and devote his entire "heart and blood."
Taking the Sage's words to heart, Long Qing performs a painful self-sacrifice, adding his heart's blood to the furnace, but the efforts fail, eliciting a scream. Wangjing Lue summons Ning Que to General Xu Shi, who is dining. Ning Que advises him against eating greasy food. Xu Shi warns Ning Que against confronting Xia Hou, revealing that even powerful cultivators cannot withstand a full military assault and that Xia Hou is unkillable.
Xu Shi warns Ning Que to respect Tang law and reveals he couldn't find Ning Que's past before the age of ten. Ning Que states his residence at Yanming Lake and invites Xu Shi to arrest him. Xu Shi reiterates his warning about Xia Hou's return before Ning Que leaves. Uncle Yicheng congratulates Ye Qing, the Universe Traveler of the mysterious Zhishou Temple, on his emergence from fifteen years of meditation.
Uncle Yicheng acknowledges Ye Qing's breakthrough, noting that he has comprehended the mysteries of life and death, and suggests Ye Qing remain to inherit the Master's position. However, Ye Qing declines, stating his desire to travel the world.
