• Lu Yuan offered to swallow the Fierce Sha, and Ao Lan realized he might finally be able to clear the river bend.

Lu Yuan helped the Dragon Clan deal with the Turbid Sha in a bend of the Azure Mystic River by swallowing the Sha gathered there. Ao Lan and the aquatic generals watched in shock as he rapidly cleared the enclosed waters, and he appeared far from reaching his limit.

• Ao Lan brought Lu Yuan to a river bend where Turbid Sha had accumulated for thousands of years and explained that deep Sha Crystals were difficult to remove without harming the river’s earth veins.

He agreed to exchange help clearing Turbid Sha from the Dragon Clan’s water veins for more water resources, then followed Ao Xuan toward a larger vein outlet in the east.

Ao Lan and Ao Xuan discovered that forests, streams, and small beasts thrived on Lu Yuan’s back, and the chapter ended as Lu Yuan reached the Eastern Sea and felt its Water Spirit Qi soothing the chaos origin within him.

• Ao Xuan explained that the Eastern Sea held far more Water Spirit Qi than the rivers along their route, and Lu Yuan said he wanted to trade for surplus profound water essence rather than take the Dragon Clan’s protected resources.
• Ao Xuan warned that Lu Yuan’s true form was too large for the Dragon Court, so they agreed that Lu Yuan would wait in the outer sea if the Ancestral Dragon wished to meet him.
• Ao Lan noticed forests, streams, lakes, and spirit beasts living on Lu Yuan’s back, and Ao Xuan confirmed that Lu Yuan’s body sustained a stable ecosystem.
• Lu Yuan explained that small beasts had settled on him while he slept and that he had let them remain rather than drive them away.
• Lu Yuan reached the Eastern Sea, breathed in its dense Water Spirit Qi, and felt it calm the chaos origin inside him.
