Ji Dong woke up from his slumber and learned that Tianji had already departed, making it naturally more difficult to contact them. By all accounts, he shouldn't have known Li Yonghao's whereabouts either. However, while he couldn't reach Tianji, he could still reach someone who held even greater sway over the situation than Tianji and the others. That person was his senior brother, Thunder Emperor Frey.
Using the Stone of Thousand Miles Communication, Ji Dong contacted Frey and informed him of his survival. At the same time, he received news from Frey that the Red Lotus Heavenly Fire was about to extinguish and that the Dark Heavenly Stem Saints were set to return from the Dark Fortress.
