Bai Jue leaves for Chaos Hall to ask Zhiyang for the materials to build a new sword as Shangu had progressed significantly. Both Zhiyang and Tian Qi chastice him for opening her God vessels alone as their powers oppose each other. While Bai Jue is away, devils attack Shangu and she leaves to fight them alone. However, her first Thunder Trial appears. Bai Jue takes it in her stead as she still did not have a strong foundation. In the Nether World, The Devil Overlord Xuanyi learns of this. Bai Jue makes the sword for Shangu, but loses consciousness. Hongri tells Shangu what he had done. Guilty, she uses her Original Being to heal him and formally accepts him as her master. While on their way to repair the barrier on Mount Lookout, Shangu is kidnapped by the Devils. Bai Jue utilises this chance to follow her there and call the other Gods and lock Xuanyi in a God Holding Platform. Xuanyi's subordinate Mo Yu tells him that their plan had succeeded. Shangu is upset, knowing that she wasn't aware of Bai Jue's plans and had been used for his motives. She doesn't return to Changyuan Hall for a week, but decides to go back to get her Original Being along with Yuemi.
