The chapter opens with a flashback to the time when the "fateless one" was a common occurrence among the cultivators in the ancient world. The narrator tells us that the story of the fateless is a long-ago one, but that he survived it because he was "almost brother" to the cultivator. He says that he stumbled upon the "secret treasure" of the "tite" world, and he invites the protagonist to come along with him to find out more about it. The protagonist agrees to go with him, and the two will meet half a year from now in the "yinluo world" . He tells the protagonist that the secret treasure is a "hundreds of thousands year-old story," but he doesn't know how to unlock it. He suggests that the protagonist take a "phoenix horse" to speed up his journey. He warns the protagonist not to think too highly of fateless, but to think of fate as an unknown path.
