This chapter opens with a discussion between the evil minister and his disciple. The evil minister says that he has taught his disciple the soul-eating evil minister's technique, which will make the soul serve the evil spirit for all eternity. The disciple is horrified at the idea that his master has taught him such an evil practice. He feels that he is in pain and hopes that beihai will be able to take care of the soul devourer. The devil is moving so fast that the disciple feels like he has been struck by a thunderbolt. He thinks that his inner beings have been killed by the devil, and that he now has only hatred left for the devil. He fears that the devil is going after Luo zheng. The heaven-lord resurrector tells him that the three souls have been revived and that they are ready to die. He asks the devil if he has another helper, and the devil replies that he does not need to ask for help, as he can defeat the devil himself. He also thanks the devil for his help in killing the three gods. He says that they must keep their promises.
