As the battle continues, the ghost warns Biron that he will not be able to enter the sacred palace without the permission of the emperor. Biron tells him that the emperor has ordered his army to guard the palace, and that without any help, he will have no chance to enter. The ghost tells Biron to be his ally, as the emperor will not allow him to enter without his permission. When the ghost returns, he tells the boy that he has the power to give the boy his power of heaven-pivot, which will enable the boy to pull the arrow out of the universal altar. The boy agrees to help the ghost, and Biron promises to pick him up.
