Mo Yu entered the Black Corner Region with a merchant caravan and learned that Blazing Flame City was hosting an auction featuring Fire Radiance Stone, a material needed to refine the Spirit Fusion Holy Chalice. He arrived at the city eager to find rare treasures and establish himself in the region.

• After splitting up with Xiao Yan, Mo Yu crossed the Black Region Great Plain and joined Ge Duo’s caravan to avoid the dangers of traveling alone.

• Mo Yu explained to Uncle She that Fire Radiance Stone was needed to refine the Spirit Fusion Holy Chalice, which could help Queen Medusa resolve her soul problem and strengthen Soul Power.
• The caravan crossed the great plain without encountering a Black Storm, and Mo Yu declined Ge Duo’s payment for his help.
• Ge Duo brought the caravan to Blazing Flame City, where Mo Yu looked forward to the auction and the rare treasures it might offer.

Mo Yu gathered materials and refined two Fourth-Grade Weapons to raise money for the Spirit Fusion Holy Chalice. After the Blazing Flame Auction Hall appraised them and granted him a second-level VIP seat, its appraiser suspected Mo Yu was a skilled Artifact Refiner and decided he might interest the Sect Master.

• Mo Yu entered Blazing Flame City and learned that the Hundred Refinement Pavilion was the place to find artifacts.
• Mo Yu found most auxiliary materials for the Spirit Fusion Holy Chalice at the pavilion but could not afford them, so he bought materials to refine weapons for auction.
• Mo Yu refined an Ice-Fire Duality Sword and a Formation-Breaking Overlord Halberd, both Fourth-Grade Weapons.
• Mo Yu brought the weapons to the Blazing Flame Auction Hall, where an appraiser valued them and issued him a second-level VIP seat.
• The appraiser concluded that Mo Yu was likely a capable Artifact Refiner and thought the Sect Master would be interested in him.

Mo Yu attended the Blazing Flame City auction, where he noticed the Savage Beast Sect’s Young Sect Master Gao Ba and learned the sect was seeking a mysterious final auction item to help its leader obtain a powerful Magical Beast bloodline. The auction opened with weapons and other treasures, and Mo Yu waited for the Ice-Fire Duality Sword’s bidding to begin.

• Mo Yu entered the auction through the VIP passage using his second-level VIP card and was seated near Gao Ba, who sensed hidden strength in him and wanted to fight him.
• Gao Ba and his guard Zhang discussed the Savage Beast Sect’s plan to acquire a mysterious item, using funds raised by raiding small sects, to win a High-Tier Magical Beast bloodline for the Sect Master.
• The white-haired auctioneer opened the auction and sold the Blazing Flame Sword, a third-grade Fire Element Magic Core Weapon, for two hundred thousand Gold Coins.
• Mo Yu watched the early lots pass without bidding, noting that his own top-tier Fourth-Grade Weapons could attract more attention.
• The auctioneer presented the Ice-Fire Duality Sword, described its ability to handle and fuse Ice and Fire energy, and set its starting price at five hundred thousand.

At the Blazing Flame Auction, Mo Yu sold two Fourth-Grade Weapons, bought Fire Radiance Stones needed to refine the Spirit Fusion Holy Chalice, and turned his attention to an unknown map. The chapter ended as the auctioneer presented the map and invited bidders to gamble on what it concealed.

• Mo Yu watched Qiushui win the Ice-Fire Duality Sword for 1.2 million Gold Coins after refusing Gao Ba's offer to join the Savage Beast Sect.

• Mo Yu earned more than two million Gold Coins from the two weapons and purchased the fourth set of Fire Radiance Stones for 850,000 Gold Coins.
• The White-haired Auctioneer introduced an ancient piece of black fabric that might be an unknown treasure map, though the auction house did not know what its patterns meant.

Mo Yu bought a mysterious cloth fragment and an Emerald Blue Crystal at the auction, then watched as the heavily guarded final item was revealed to be a Seventh-Grade Form Transformation Pill. The chapter ended with the auction hall stunned by the pill’s appearance.

• The auctioneer secured the stage as hidden experts and Blazing Flame Sect Elders guarded the final treasure.
• Mo Yu recognized the pill in the cold jade box as a Seventh-Grade Pill when its red light and spirit-forming pill energy filled the hall.
• The White-haired Auctioneer revealed the treasure as a Form Transformation Pill.

Mo Yu discovered that the Form Transformation Pill at the Earth Flame Auction House was flawed, but Uncle She revealed that his bloodline could raise Purple Fire’s chance of transforming to eighty percent. Mo Yu decided to obtain the pill by force if necessary and left the auction before bidding began, planning to target whichever major force bought it.

• The auctioneer revealed that the red pill was a Seventh-Grade Form Transformation Pill, drawing the attention of the Savage Beast Sect and other forces.
• Uncle She explained that the pill could help Purple Fire break through and transform, prompting Mo Yu to consider building his own force around Purple Fire.
• Mo Yu detected that the pill was flawed, and the auctioneer admitted its chance of transforming a Magical Beast was only fifty percent.
• Uncle She said his Seven-Winged Purple Gold Snake bloodline could raise Purple Fire’s chance to eighty percent, and Mo Yu resolved to obtain the pill despite lacking the Gold Coins to buy it.
• Mo Yu agreed with Uncle She to seize the pill from its buyer and quietly left the auction before the bidding began.

Mo Yu collected his auction proceeds and purchases, evaded Blazing Fire Sect pursuers, and followed their group to steal the Form Transformation Pill. He watched as the Savage Beast Sect confronted them, and the arrival of Huo Cong brought the two factions to the brink of battle.

• Mo Yu received the Purple-Gold Card and his purchased items from Steward Wang, then learned that the Blazing Fire Sect had won the Form Transformation Pill.
• Mo Yu escaped Blazing Fire Sect followers using spatial power and tracked the sect outside Blazing Flame City, intending to rob them on the road.
• Uncle She sensed the Savage Beast Sect approaching, so Mo Yu hid and watched as Gao Li demanded that Elder Lie surrender the pill.
• Gao Li threatened to kill the Blazing Fire Sect party, but Huo Cong arrived and challenged him.

Gao Li’s Savage Beast Sect ambushed the Blazing Fire Sect to seize the Form Transformation Pill, using a Calamitous Poison Thunder Bomb to cripple its forces. Just as Gao Ba claimed the pill, Mo Yu appeared and took it for himself.

• Flame Cong confronted Gao Li, and the Blazing Fire Sect and Savage Beast Sect began fighting while their leaders battled separately.
• Mo Yu and Uncle She watched from concealment as Gao Ba revealed a poison-charged Sub-Thunder that Mo Yu recognized as linked to Xiao Yi Xian’s Mysterious Yin Poison Demon Thunder.

• Gao Ba killed the Blazing Fire Sect Elder, searched his Storage Ring, and found the Form Transformation Pill.
• Mo Yu appeared on a withered tree and took the Form Transformation Pill from Gao Ba.

• Mo Yu vanished again as Gao Li attacked, escaping with the pill while the two sect leaders turned their anger on each other.

Mo Yu escaped Gao Li and traveled deep into the mountains, where he and Uncle She began Purple Fire’s transformation using the Form Transformation Pill and a Seventh-Tier Beast Skeleton. Purple Fire survived the dangerous fusion and began breaking through to the Fifth-Tier as its transformation flames were absorbed.

• Mo Yu escaped Blazing Flame City with the Form Transformation Pill and chose a remote mountain peak for Purple Fire’s transformation.
• Uncle She warned that fusing with the Seventh-Tier Beast Skeleton could kill Purple Fire, and Purple Fire chose to risk the attempt.
• Uncle She used the Form Transformation Pill and Purple-Gold Seven-Winged Snake Bloodline to engulf Purple Fire in transformation flames and extract its original lion bones.
• Mo Yu sent the Seventh-Tier Beast Skeleton into the flames, where Purple Fire’s flesh struggled to fuse with it against the skeleton’s resistance.
• As Purple Fire neared its one-hour limit, its fusion succeeded, and its Lion King’s roar shook the mountain’s Magical Beasts.
• Purple Fire absorbed the transformation flames and began breaking through to the Fifth-Tier, relieving Mo Yu and Uncle She.

Purple Fire completed his transformation after absorbing the Form Transformation Pill and the Seventh-Tier Beast Skeleton, gaining human form and immense strength. Mo Yu learned that the skeleton belonged to the fallen Absolute Earth Mighty Lion Clan, then traveled with Purple Fire to Stone Rock City, where a demand for Scarlet-Refined Divine Copper caught his attention.

After Purple Fire drove off the Wolf Fang Gang, Ling Feng offered the copper and asked to pledge the Fierce Tiger Gang’s allegiance to Mo Yu.

• Mo Yu learned that the Fierce Tiger Gang possessed Scarlet-Refined Divine Copper and sent Purple Fire to clear a path through the Wolf Fang Gang’s encirclement.
• Purple Fire blasted dozens of Wolf Fang Gang members aside with a lion’s roar, then revealed Mo Yu as the one he served.
• Mo Yu met Ling Feng, the Fierce Tiger Gang’s leader, and offered to save the gang in exchange for the Scarlet-Refined Divine Copper.

• Ling Feng agreed to give Mo Yu the Scarlet-Refined Divine Copper and asked to lead the Fierce Tiger Gang in pledging allegiance to him.

Mo Yu accepted the Fierce Tiger Gang’s allegiance and turned it into Yuan Manor, appointing leaders for its first three halls. He ended the chapter by declaring that Yuan Manor’s first campaign would destroy the Wolf Fang Gang and take control of Stone Rock City.

• Ling Feng pledged the Fierce Tiger Gang’s allegiance to Mo Yu, hoping to avenge his father, who had been killed by the Savage Beast Sect.
• Mo Yu inspected the gang’s headquarters and members, accepted Scarlet-Refined Divine Copper from Ling Feng, and learned that Meng Yang was the gang’s Second-Grade Artifact Refiner.

• Mo Yu established the Mighty Lion Hall under Purple Fire, the Fierce Tiger Hall under Ling Feng, and the Weapon Hall under Meng Yang.
• Mo Yu declared that Yuan Manor’s first battle would be to annihilate the Wolf Fang Gang and dominate Stone Rock City.

Mo Yu led Yuan Manor to attack the Wolf Fang Gang and absorb its remaining members after Ye Cang fled. He placed the former gang members under Purple Fire in the Mighty Lion Hall and ordered Ling Feng to begin the merger.

• Mo Yu ordered Yuan Manor to destroy the Wolf Fang Gang and set out with Purple Fire, Ling Feng, and more than fifty elite fighters.

• Mo Yu assigned the recruits to Purple Fire's Mighty Lion Hall and told Ling Feng to begin the merger and remove the gang's parasites.

Mo Yu strengthened Yuan Manor’s hold over Stone Rock City, cultivated his soul with the Little Holy Chalice, and used Vermilion Bird Sky-Burning Thunder to reveal the secret of an ancient map. The map displayed the words “Life Devouring Pill,” leaving Mo Yu with a newly uncovered mystery.

• Mo Yu’s forces recruited new members for Yuan Manor, while Meng Yang reported that he had refined Blazing Flame Longswords and was nearing advancement to a Third-Grade Artificer.
• Ling Feng told Mo Yu that Yuan Manor had found no news of the Seven-Colored Ancient Vine or the soul-element sixth-tier Magic Core.
• Mo Yu cultivated with the Little Holy Chalice and sensed that his Soul Power had grown significantly, bringing him closer to the Fifth Grade.
• Mo Yu examined the mysterious map he had bought at the Blazing Flame Auction Hall, and Uncle She identified its parchment as Abyssal Demon Crocodile hide and suggested using lightning on it.
• Mo Yu struck the parchment with Vermilion Bird Sky-Burning Thunder, revealing a topographical map and the words “Life Devouring Pill.”

Mo Yu discovered that his map revealed the location of the Life Devouring Pill near Jia Nan Academy and planned to obtain it for Yuan Manor. When the swordsman Qiushui came seeking repairs for his damaged Ice-Fire Duality Sword, Mo Yu offered to fix it in exchange for Qiushui joining Yuan Manor.

• Mo Yu and Uncle She recognized the map's secret as the location of the Life Devouring Pill, and Mo Yu decided to retrieve it on his way to Jia Nan Academy.
• Meng Yang brought Qiushui to meet Mo Yu after Qiushui traced the forging method of his Ice-Fire Duality Sword to Yuan Manor.
• Qiushui revealed that a battle with a One-Star Dou Wang had badly damaged the sword and asked Mo Yu to repair it.
• Mo Yu agreed that the sword could be repaired, then asked Qiushui to join Yuan Manor instead of paying him.

Mo Yu recruited Qiushui as Yuan Manor’s Guest Elder by promising to forge him a fifth-grade sword, then left Stone Rock City for Jia Nan Academy. After retrieving two Seventh-Grade Life Devouring Pills and reaching Peace Town, Mo Yu saw the corpses displayed on the Death Spirit Tree at the town gate.

• Mo Yu persuaded Qiushui to join Yuan Manor for two years in exchange for an Ice-Fire Four Symbols Sword, and repaired Qiushui’s damaged sword.

Since the Inner Academy selection tournament had ended, Mo Yu applied to enter through a special challenge against an expert near the bottom of the Power Ranking, and Huo De arranged for him to travel there that night.
