In front of his soul pool, the holy fire passes him, and the flames are avoiding him. The alchemy bastard tells him to move to a safer place, but the wizard tells him not to worry, as the flames will not stop until they take a single step forward. As long as they do so, they will not be in danger, but as they move forward, new dangers will appear. The holy fire is the strongest fire, the wizard says, and it can deal with the power of the Taiyin. The bastard says that the three-sword sword could not survive the fire. The wizard exclaims that they are lucky, because the taiyin power does not affect them. He tells the bastard to stop bragging, and says that he won the battle, and that he is alive. He then tells the story of the first battle, when he broke the palace, and how he was able to do it. The young man tells him that the arbiter, the messenger of the undead demon clan, came to welcome them. The arbiter gave the young man a special liquid that can dissolve the curse power, and he accepts the reward.
