The monk notices that the disciples of his sect are almost completely wiped out. He wonders what the creature is doing in the palace, and wonders if he should follow it to find an exit. The monk realizes that the creature must have been the one attacking him, and he decides to follow it. The creature enters the palace and asks the monk why he is running, and the monk replies that he is the "Thousand-Shaped Beast spirit" , and that he must return to his thousand-shape core immediately. He tells the creature that the tearing of the palace has disappeared, and then he asks the creature to follow him so that he does not know the vastness of Heaven and Earth. He says that anyone annoying him will certainly end up in a bad end. He then tells the two intruders that he has been guarding the "treasure ofjiujiang" for over 360 years. He asks them not to tell him that they are aiming for the treasure, but first, he must tell them bluntly. They are not the only group to have come to him in these 300 years, he says, and those who came before them, he has eaten them. He calls for them to stand up and fight another fierce battle, and says that they have already been "fed up with fighting" for 300 years and that they should not fight today. Instead, they should have a verbal fight. He gives them three questions, and asks them to give him the correct answers.
