The fox asks the emperor why he went against the other emperors, and the emperor replies that both he and the fox are also creatures, so why can't he stand by and watch the emperors get annihilated? The fox replies that in order to be a saint, the emperor must "transcend the tribulation" and "become a saint" . In other words, in order for the emperor to be victorious, he must become a saint. The fox says that he's been raising the emperor for a hundred years now, and that's why the emperor has been defeated so many times. He says that even if the emperor is the strongest, he'll still be defeated by the emperor who is the most powerful. He asks the god emperor to come down and heal him. He's healed, he says, and he wants to help the emperor unite the heavenly world.
