Chapter Summaries

Yang Tianyou’s group followed an injured Blood Race member fleeing Spirit Transformation Red Trees through the Blood River Secret Realm. After Yin Wuqi self-destructed and destroyed many pursuing branches, Yang Tianyou used a spatial Talisman to seize an opportunity and returned to the Flying Shuttle, declaring that they had struck it rich.

• Zhiming detected Spirit Transformation Red Trees fighting in a concealed space, but Yang Tianyou initially ordered the Flying Shuttle to retreat rather than approach.
• Zhiming sensed two Blood Race members fleeing the Red Trees, including one badly injured fighter heading toward them, and Yang Tianyou ordered the shuttle to follow from a safe distance.
• Yin Wuqi fought the Red Tree branches for a day while trying to escape, but his strength dwindled until the trees bound him.
• Yin Wuqi detonated his Blood Soul Essence Core, blasting apart the surrounding Red Tree branches and clearing part of the Blood River.
• Yang Tianyou activated a Fourth-Tier High-Grade spatial Talisman, vanished, and reappeared aboard the Flying Shuttle covered in wounds and rejoicing over their haul.

Yang Tianyou used the Heavenly Sun Flame Furnace to devastate the island and break through to the Inheritance Hall, then escaped with the True Blood Pool. He split from Yunhua to hide the pool and its route, leaving Yunhua to return to Qin Province with the recovered treasures.

• Yang Tianyou sent a concealed Formless Insect onto the island with a Void Worm's Insect Molt, then used the Void Worm's Spatial Exchange to swap the molt for the Heavenly Sun Flame Furnace.

• Wang Shan activated the Teleportation Formation, sending Yang Tianyou and the others to a cave in southwest Mo Province.
• Yunhua used her Essence Blood and the Illusion God Pearl to conceal the True Blood Pool from the distant Blood Race Sage Manifestation for a month.
• Yang Tianyou set out for the Chaotic Sea with one Dragon Tortoise to deliver the True Blood Pool, while Yunhua took the other Dragon Tortoise and the Inheritance Hall treasures toward Qin Province.

The Blood Race tried to identify who had taken the missing Blood Source and suspected the Ye Household, while Ye Wuyou investigated the Blood River Secret Realm. After discovering that it produced Blood Sources and that the Blood Race could enter it, Ye Wuyou decided to investigate further before telling the other Eight Directions Forces.

• The Red Tree King learned that humans had taken one Blood Source, while the Blood Race's Sage Manifestation members discovered the other was being carried west at roughly Nascent Soul Great Perfection speed.
• The Blood Race members suspected the Ye Household and decided to contact its leaders about trading for the Blood Source without revealing too much.
• Ye Wuyou received the Blood Race's vague, threatening message and inferred that the Blood River Secret Realm held a valuable treasure, so he flew there to investigate.
• Ye Wuyou entered the Dark Space, found traces of the stolen Blood Source and the battle between the Blood Race and Red Tree Clan, and concluded that the realm could produce Blood Sources and that the Blood Race could enter it.
• Ye Wuyou chose not to inform the other Eight Directions Forces yet, deciding to investigate the Blood Source's destination and prevent the Red Tree Clan from keeping the realm.

• Yang Xuanye told Yang Xuanwu that the Lineage had made an enemy of a Spirit Transformation Devil Cultivator and that Yang Tianyou was already on his way to the Chaotic Sea.
• Yang Tianyou contacted the Eight Desolations Saber Saint because the Flying Shuttle was too slow and the Illusion God Pearl’s concealment would soon fail.
• The Eight Desolations Saber Saint appeared aboard the Flying Shuttle, examined the True Blood Pool and Blood Source, and transported Yang Tianyou toward Four Symbols Island in a Golden Blade Light.

Yang Tianyou brought the Blood Source to the Eight Desolations Saber Saint, who removed the Blood Race’s tracking presence and warned him about an ambush near Four Symbols Island. The Blood Source was set to be refined into Sage Manifestation Pills, while the Blood Race expert lost its trail.

Yang Tianyou traded a small bottle of Immaculate Spring Water for pills from Mo Chengkong to help his clansmen, then gave most of his remaining supply to Yueyang for his Bloodline Metamorphosis. After watching their bond, Mo Chengkong and Fairy Nishang decided to strengthen ties with the Yang Household and Four Symbols Sect ahead of the Two-World War.

• Yang Tianyou used Immaculate Spring Water to help Yang Tiankang rebuild his body and left Yang Xuanye and Little True Person Yueyang to watch over him.

Back at Great White Residence, Yang Tianyou and Yunhua discussed their Four Symbols Sect backing and agreed that Yunhua would wait fifteen years to use the Taiyin Crystal before attempting her Nascent Soul breakthrough.

After the deaths of its senior leaders, the Hidden Dragon Sect appointed Yang Qiongchuan as sect master and shifted to a defensive strategy. In Xuan Province, Ye Wuyou suspected the Yang Household had obtained the Blood Source but decided not to expose the secret, considering how he might approach them instead.

• Yang Qiongchuan became the Hidden Dragon Sect's sect master, while Yang Xuanying and Yan Xia Ke became its Grand Elder and Second Elder.
• The Hidden Dragon Sect adopted a cautious approach, and Yang Qiongchuan drove back hostile forces that tried to exploit the deaths of its leaders.

• Ye Wuyou resolved to mention only the discovered Dark Space at the upcoming gathering and to sound out the Yang Household for clues.

• Yunhua finished refining the Taiyin Crystal and began her breakthrough at Wolf Pool, drawing on Moonlight and Taiyin Qi.
• Yunhua's Golden Core shattered and her Nascent Soul formed, while thunderclouds gathered above her.

• Old Man Taiwu engaged a Nascent Soul member of the Foreign Races while Yang Xuanwu and Wang Shan escaped by Flying Shuttle.

Yang Tianyou killed the Dwarf Child and discussed the Yang Household’s progress and its enemies with Yang Xuanwu. Later, while cultivating in seclusion, he broke through to the Star Dao Force Realm, though he expected the Metal Element Dao to take another decade or more.
