The next morning, the group gathers in the middle of the mountains to discuss the situation. The eagle has saved the group from many dangers, and they are grateful for it. They discuss whether or not chen-qin went with the pill hall sect and the bloodline sect, and the elder says that it is impossible for him to stay in the five countries, since he would be wasting his talent and life by following the main road. They wonder if he has already attained the first stage of divine power, and if he will be able to cross the mountain range alone. They decide to go after the brat, but the eagle warns them not to do so unless they really have to, since the sky is full of birds and blood beasts.
