Wu Wangyan leaves Wu Shiguang. She prepares to sever her spirit tail to break from Wu Xiangmoon, but Wu Shiguang rushes in just in time to stop her.

Wu Shiguang saves Wu Wangyan. The Jiu Ying learns he can’t transform into a dragon and uses Yuan Wuhuo to uncover how to slay a dragon.

The group learns that Li Jie turned the tables on Yuan Wuhuo. Ji Ling and Lu Wuyi affirm their feelings, but the last Jiu Ying fragment lies within Lu Wuyi.

Wu Shiguang leads the group into the painted world, where a black-clad figure arrives to take something from Mu Long.

As tensions mount, Ji Ling fights to save Lu Wuyi. Meanwhile, Wu Shiguang transforms into a ferocious dragon to confront Jiu Ying’s lingering power.

Battles rage as the allies confront their enemies across land and sky, fighting to restore order and usher in a new era for the mortal world.

Lu Wuyi tests Ji Ling, and the two part on bad terms. Ji Ling and Li Jie are then ordered to retrieve Wu Shiguang’s Dragon God power.

Wu Wangyan carries out the mission alone and teams up with Wu Shiguang. Lu Wuyi then witnesses Ji Ling change back into a wooden figurine.
