Arc 27Ghost Valley and the Sacred Beasts
Chu Xinghe tried to turn the Fox Clan’s mining and charm breakthroughs, the Demonic Sect’s schemes, and Ghost Valley’s failing seal into opportunities to waste resources. The arc left him with White Tiger’s agreement to restore Ghost Valley’s formation after he presented the Beast God’s command.
- Zheng Yu secured a second Blood Spirit Stone vein for Martial Emperor City, while Ji Moran faced blame for selling the Horse Clan’s territory and Yuan Ying was branded a traitor by the Ape Clan.
- Chu Xinghe assigned the Divine Fox Ridge mine to the Fox Clan and taught them Tieniu’s Mining Technique, but the foxes struggled until Wan Lin taught them the Art of Charm and they rapidly mastered both skills.
- The Fox Clan developed powerful Charm Arts and achieved mining yields as high as ninety percent, frustrating Chu Xinghe as he tried to hinder their progress.
- Yuan Ying joined Wu Xingyun and Tantai Jing in a plan to steal from the Vast Heaven Sect, but the thief rat exploded after consuming contaminated spirit stones, and the Demonic Sect turned to earning resources through ordinary work.
- Chu Xinghe taught the Spirit Crane Palace and its guests the Voodoo Arts, leading them to make costly poison pills, then clashed with the Grand Elder and Gu Mingchao over lessons and assignments.
- After ghosts began escaping Ghost Valley, the Vast Heaven Sect enlisted the Formation Spirit Clan to repair its seal, while Tantai Jing and Chu Xinghe both sabotaged the formation until it collapsed.
- Chu Xinghe gathered two million Blood Spirit Stones and visited White Tiger, while the Beast God prepared a handwritten decree that could command the Four Sacred Beasts to leave Spirit Beast Island.
- White Tiger and the other Sacred Beasts accepted Blood Spirit Stones and promised future aid, but White Tiger refused to leave until Chu Xinghe presented the Beast God’s decree, after which he agreed to restore Ghost Valley’s formation.
