Shen Li notices that Xing Zhi often goes to a certain room in the West Courtyard, so she sneaks in when he's not paying attention. It turns out to be a room containing memorial tablets of Ancient Gods. From there, she glimpses some memories of the Ancient Gods and learns about Xing Zhi's past. She discovers that Sky's Beyond used to be lively, but now only Xing Zhi remains, with all his former friends turned into memorial tablets. Shen Li can't help but feel sorry for Xing Zhi. Xing Zhi explains that the power of the Ancient Gods is so great that they cannot fall in love. If Xing Zhi's divine form perishes one day, the Xutian Abyss will also disappear, and the Spiritual Realm will be affected. Shen Li finally understands why Xing Zhi keeps turning her down.
