Hongning asked Baibuqu what the test was about. Baibuqu said it was to test spiritual roots, which come in five types: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. The weakest is earth. Without any spiritual root, one couldn’t stay to cultivate. Hongning just wanted to stay and find the Lemon Sprite and thought having the weakest earth root would be fine. She saw Bailing there and realized he took the Lemon Sprite, which strengthened her resolve to stay. The test began.
Baibuqu thought he would have a fire root but ended up with the weakest earth root. He couldn’t believe it, but Tian Nanxing said the spiritual sword never made mistakes. Another person took the test—though powerful, he had no spiritual root and was dissatisfied. Jinxiu appeared. Seeing how powerful Jinxiu was, the man admitted his mistake and conceded. When it was Hongning’s turn, she begged the spiritual sword to give her an earth root, but after two tries, she had none.
Jinxiu ordered her taken down the mountain. Hongning asked for one more try, and the sword emitted a purple light. Tian Nanxing said no one had ever had a purple light before. Hongning replied that Jinxiu had said as long as it emitted light, it counted. Even if it was purple, she had passed. Jinxiu said Hongning had no spiritual root and ordered her removed from the mountain. In the dungeon, the demons rioted, claiming the Demon King had appeared.
Jinxiu led people over. Hongning wanted to see too and went with Baibuqu. The demons were excited, saying they saw the Demon King and could use him to boost their cultivation. A scorpion spirit emerged and fought Jinxiu. Jinxiu said he had once spared the scorpion for his potential fate but now had no choice and destroyed him. Hongning noticed something wrong, dashed forward to shield him, and got injured. Jinxiu quickly carried her back.
Bailing brought food back for Lu Yao and stole herbs from the medicinal pavilion to treat her wounds. He told her to stay there and not wander. Though Hongning woke up, she refused to get up. Bailing asked Jinxiu how long this would last. Jinxiu saw through it and said, “You can never wake someone who pretends to sleep. ” He deliberately ate a bowl of noodles in front of Hongning and said it was delicious.
Starving, Hongning hurriedly ate the noodles after he left. Bailing came to see Hongning. She asked if he had brought back a demon. She meant the Lemon Sprite, but Bailing thought she knew about Lu Yao and told her not to speak of it. Hongning agreed and believed the Lemon Sprite was indeed here. Bailing took Hongning and Baibuqu outside to teach them how to cultivate. When it was mealtime, Bailing quickly left.
Hongning said he hadn’t finished teaching, and Bailing replied they’d continue next time. Jinxiu came to check on the disciples' training and, upon hearing Bailing had taken Hongning and Baibuqu away, hurried over. Baibuqu had gathered information and told Hongning. She thought that if she wanted to save the Lemon Sprite, she’d have to start with Bailing. Jinxiu found them, and Hongning was dozing off. He taught them how to cultivate and asked what they saw.
Baibuqu said he saw only darkness. Jinxiu asked Hongning what she felt. She said she felt Jinxiu. Jinxiu thought it was nonsense. He told the disciples to keep an eye on Hongning and not let her wander. They found it baffling.
