In the midst of the fight, Lin realizes that he is the one who is going to die. He curses the old man and tells him to split up so that he can kill him. He tells Lin that he will help him when he finishes breaking the third formation. Lin is amazed at the speed at which he is able to kill a man, but he is unable to escape. He asks who the man is, and the man says he is a "passerby" from the underworld. Lin asks if it is worth being called an immortal, but the man replies that he has "cultivated the golden elixir" to become immortal. Lin tells him that he cannot kill him, because he has left him no choice. He says he will kill him with his injury.
