Han Li immobilizes him and travels there alone. He is cautious of any traps. Turns out the traps triggers a demonic beast: A Golden-backed Demon Mantis. Its attack ruins the White Lustruous Shield. After a fireball attack, it unleashes its wings. It also ruins the Golden Beetle Swarm Swords. He embarks on his flying boat and throws it off with his dragon missiles. When it hits the boat, he hides with his invisibility veil. He waits to use his Blood Spirit Drill, but the mantis senses a boar which it grabs and flies off. Turns out the bag is empty and it was a trap to kill him.
Qu Hun uses his skills to remove the talismans, when Han Li attacks. Turns out he had a magic treasure on him. He uses an obr to enhance his qi, but it's destroyed by Han Li's Blood Spirit Drill. Han Li then grabs the magic treasure Green Brilliance Sword, which is claimed ownership of at Core Formation Level. The demonic cultivator soul dies, asking Han Li to use the crushed orb to replenish his family's qi and blood, their vitality which has been sapped by being near his demonic aura.
