Chen Fei and Guo Linshan encountered Fu Zhaoxing’s group fleeing a strange band of pursuers, and Fu Zhaoxing tried to recruit them to fight back. Yu Doushan appeared, let Fu Zhaoxing’s group chop him apart, then began reforming from the scattered flesh, leaving everyone stunned by his unnatural ability.

• Chen Fei and Guo Linshan fled when they saw Fu Zhaoxing’s group pursued by people and Rabbit Demons.
• Fu Zhaoxing and his companions used the Flying Peng Style to escape, while Chen Fei noticed the technique’s vulnerabilities.

• Yu Doushan appeared before the groups, and Fu Zhaoxing’s companions attacked him until his body collapsed into minced flesh.
• Yu Doushan’s flesh produced tentacles and reformed into a blood shadow, prompting Fu Zhaoxing and the others to attack again as Guo Linshan watched in disbelief.

Chen Fei warned Jiao Xiangyuan’s group that a flesh-like monster was possessing martial artists and hunting people across the secret realm. Fu Zhaoxing arrived with two survivors to confirm the danger, and the monster was still pursuing them.

• Chen Fei sensed that Yu Doushan’s transformation came from control over his flesh and blood rather than a cultivation technique, then fled with Guo Linshan as pursuers closed in.

• Jiao Xiangyuan pierced Yu Doushan's heart and shattered him with the Splitting Sword Art, while Chen Fei and the others watched for signs of recovery.

Chen Fei discovered that the Rabbit Demons’ rapid regeneration depended on Spiritual Power and used his Eternal Moment Mind Skill to disrupt it, killing one for good. He realized Yu Doushan had waited for others to strike first because their attacks let him learn and adapt.

• Chen Fei looked toward Yu Doushan and understood why he had only attacked after others struck him first.

He taught the martial artists to gather Spiritual Power and helped Jiao Xiangyuan confront the unusually perceptive Yu Doushan, leaving Yu Doushan exposed to Jiao Xiangyuan’s Starfall Sword.

• Chen Fei, Guo Linshan, and the others used their Spiritual Power to wear away Yu Doushan's scattered flesh, while the Rabbit Demons were defeated one after another.

• Yu Doushan offered to lead Chen Fei to the Iron Tokens in exchange for his life, and Chen Fei agreed; Yu Doushan recognized that Chen Fei was lying.

• Chen Fei chased down the Rabbit Demon and killed it with a sudden burst of speed and a sword strike.
• Ginseng Baka emerged from a burrow, enlarged itself, and struck at Chen Fei before deciding that it had avenged its friend and letting him go.
• Baka explained that it had learned to speak after absorbing a human the Rabbit Demon had given it.
• Chen Fei asked Baka about an Iron Token, and Baka said it had seen one near the Ghostly Sophora Tree.
• Baka demanded living humans or Dream-Weaving Lotus seeds in exchange for the Iron Token, but Chen Fei refused or lacked both.
• Chen Fei offered to prepare a dish from Baka’s medicinal herbs, leaving Baka curious about the trade.

Chen Fei killed the Rabbit Demon, collected his Iron Tokens, and declined Jiao Xiangyuan’s invitation to join his group so he could return to Baka alone. Baka began offering Chen Fei its herbs for a meal, revealing a large stash of rare, decades-old medicinal plants.

• Jiao Xiangyuan divided the Iron Tokens, giving Chen Fei three and Guo Linshan one, and Chen Fei returned to report that he had killed the Rabbit Demon.
• Chen Fei reached six Iron Tokens, declined Jiao Xiangyuan’s offer to travel together, and let Guo Linshan stay with Jiao’s group.
• Chen Fei hid his Iron Tokens in the Space Grid and went back to Baka’s burrow alone.
• Baka brought out more than thirty medicinal herbs, all over fifty years old, with the oldest nearing a hundred years.

Chen Fei used his pill-making knowledge to craft two intensely flavored medicinal juices that won over the powerful demonic creature Baka. Baka agreed to trade the Iron Token for twenty bowls of juice and set off to retrieve it.

• Chen Fei mixed medicinal herbs into two unusual juices for Baka to taste.
• Baka enjoyed both flavors and asked Chen Fei to make him more.
• Chen Fei reminded Baka that the medicinal juice was part of a trade for items such as the Iron Token.
• Baka demanded ten bowls of each juice in exchange for the Iron Token, and Chen Fei readily agreed.
• Baka agreed to fetch the Iron Token from the Ghostly Sophora Tree while Chen Fei prepared the medicinal juice.

Chen Fei traded medicinal brews for Baka’s Iron Token and learned that Baka could help him obtain Crimson Fruits. The chapter ended with Chen Fei planning to lure away the snake guarding the fruit tree while Baka took the fruits.

• Chen Fei refused to prepare the medicinal brew until Baka returned with an Iron Token, then waited while sorting herbs and considering what other brews he could make.
• Baka returned injured after fighting the Ghostly Sophora Tree and gave Chen Fei an Iron Token in exchange for eleven bowls of each medicinal brew.
• Chen Fei spent an hour preparing twenty-two bowls of brew, and Baka drank them all before asking Chen Fei to keep making more.
• Chen Fei asked Baka about more Iron Tokens and the Dream-Weaving Lotus, but Baka said he had seen no other tokens and could not defeat the lotus plant.
• Chen Fei asked about the Crimson Fruit Tree, and Baka said he knew it but could not beat both the tree and its guarding snake alone.
• Chen Fei proposed luring the snake away, and Baka agreed he could take the fruits from the tree.

Chen Fei lured the python away from the Crimson Fruit Tree so Baka could reach it, while repeatedly attacking the python and drawing its pursuit. The python ignored the tree’s summons and continued chasing Chen Fei as Baka charged within striking distance of the tree.

• Chen Fei and Baka agreed to split the Crimson Fruit, and Chen Fei went ahead to lure the python away from the tree.
• Chen Fei found only one fruit remaining and provoked the python with arrows, then used his sword and continued shooting as he fled.
• Chen Fei’s attacks damaged the python’s head but failed to pierce its skull, so he kept leading it farther from the Crimson Fruit Tree.
• When the Crimson Fruit Tree summoned the python, Chen Fei fired three arrows at its eyes; the python survived and chose to keep pursuing him.
• Baka transformed into a giant and charged within five meters of the Crimson Fruit Tree as its branches struck him.

Baka fought through the Crimson Fruit Tree’s attacks, took a Crimson Fruit, and returned to Chen Fei with a branch from the tree. After sharing the fruit, Chen Fei drank his portion and felt as if his body were catching fire.

• Baka transformed into its berserk form, charged through the Crimson Fruit Tree’s branches, and tore off a fruit with part of a branch.
• Baka kicked the Crimson Fruit Tree before carrying the fruit back to the burrow, while the python abandoned its pursuit of Chen Fei and rushed toward the tree.
• Chen Fei examined the branch and accepted it from Baka as a potential spiritual material.
• Chen Fei offered Baka a choice between a nourishing preparation and a tastier one, and Baka chose flavor.
• Chen Fei prepared the fruit’s outer flesh as medicinal juice for Baka and kept the inner portion for himself.
• Chen Fei drank his portion after refining it with other herbs, and his body felt as though it were about to ignite.

Chen Fei refined most of a Crimson Fruit and gained substantial cultivation progress, then persuaded Baka to seek out other spiritual materials for medicinal juice. Baka returned with Ghostly Sophora Tree fruits and leaves after a fight, and Chen Fei discovered that the materials had a chilling effect on his Spiritual Power.

• Chen Fei dissolved and refined most of a Crimson Fruit, raising his Marrow Refinement Realm progress to nearly seventy percent.

• Baka returned after fighting the Ghostly Sophora Tree and gave Chen Fei its fruits and leaves.
• Chen Fei tested the Ghostly Sophora Tree materials and found that his Spiritual Power became cold and still, allowing him to sense every change in his thoughts.

Chen Fei prepared Ghostly Sophora Tree medicine to help Baka resist the Dream-Weaving Lotus’s Spiritual Power, but they arrived at the pool to find a large group attacking the lotus behind a barrier powered by a spirit artifact. Pan Baoxue recognized Chen Fei and accused him of plotting against the lotus, just as an expert archer’s warning shot landed before him.

• Chen Fei explained that the Ghostly Sophora Tree leaves gave him an unusually precise awareness of his body, and Baka said the tree had only a few leaves near its fruits.
• Chen Fei persuaded Baka to try the Dream-Weaving Lotus again by refining the leaves and fruits into medicine that could resist its Spiritual Power suppression.
• After nearly an hour, Chen Fei finished the medicine, and he and Baka headed toward the pool.
• They found more than forty martial artists attacking an injured Dream-Weaving Lotus, whose Spiritual Power was blocked by a blue barrier from a luminous pearl that Chen Fei recognized as a spirit artifact.
• A man who had previously provoked a demonic beast against Chen Fei recognized him, and Pan Baoxue accused Chen Fei of plotting against the lotus.
• Several figures rushed toward Chen Fei, but an expert archer fired an arrow into the ground before him.

Chen Fei tried to leave the group guarding the Dream-Weaving Lotus, but Pan Baoxue accused him of wrongdoing and urged Ma Xuefei to seize him for his Iron Token. Lei Yingchao and Ma Xuefei attacked Chen Fei, who dodged them and struck back by shooting off Pan Baoxue’s arm.

• Chen Fei assessed the group surrounding the weakened Dream-Weaving Lotus and declined to challenge their more than fifty members.
• Pan Baoxue told Ma Xuefei a false account of his encounter with Chen Fei and proposed detaining him, then revealed Chen Fei carried an Iron Token.
• Chen Fei tried to leave, but Ma Xuefei shot at him and Lei Yingchao moved to seize him after noticing the Iron Token.
• Chen Fei evaded Lei Yingchao’s grasp and Ma Xuefei’s arrows with Void Roaming Steps, then demanded to know why they were stopping him.
• Lei Yingchao accused Chen Fei of acting suspiciously, and Chen Fei fired an arrow past him that severed Pan Baoxue’s arm.

Chen Fei escaped Lei Yingchao’s group and learned from Baka that uprooting the Dream-Weaving Lotus would summon the powerful Earth Rat. As the gathered martial artists neared capturing the lotus, the Earth Rat appeared and killed several guards.

• Chen Fei wounded Pan Baoxue, evaded Lei Yingchao and Ma Xuefei, and escaped while their group abandoned the pursuit.
• Baka told Chen Fei that the Dream-Weaving Lotus could not be killed because the Earth Rat would appear if its true body faced destruction.
• Chen Fei and Baka returned to watch the pool, where martial artists had destroyed most of the lotus’s roots while carefully preserving its body.
• A black streak rushed toward the pool, and several guards stiffened before being torn into chunks of flesh.

Chen Fei watched the Earth Rat overwhelm the martial artists attacking the Dream-Weaving Lotus, even as Lei Yingchao and the others tried to hold it back. After the Rat Demon transformed and broke through their siege, the surrounding fighters were left mortally wounded.

• The Earth Rat killed martial artists on its way to the Dream-Weaving Lotus, and Lei Yingchao blocked its charge with the Iron Grasping Hand.
• Ma Xuefei struck the Earth Rat with a charged arrow, but it left no mark; Lei Yingchao then used the Body Sacrifice Technique and was gravely wounded by the Rat Demon.
• More than a dozen martial artists joined the fight while the others attacked the Dream-Weaving Lotus, whose barrier surged as its roots and leaves began to break apart.
• Chen Fei watched from several hundred meters away as Baka said the Rat Demon had been enraged.
• The Earth Rat shrank after shrieking, evaded the encircling martial artists, and struck them all with fatal wounds.

Chen Fei watched the Earth Rat slaughter more than a dozen martial artists before Xiao Lingling trapped it with the Exquisite Pearl. When the Dream-Weaving Lotus self-destructed and its essence fled, Chen Fei pursued it as other survivors raced to claim it.

• The Earth Rat killed more than a dozen Organ Refinement Realm martial artists, then returned to its small form and paused to rest.
• Xiao Lingling used the Exquisite Pearl to trap the Earth Rat while her group continued attacking the Dream-Weaving Lotus.
• The Dream-Weaving Lotus self-destructed, releasing a wave that incapacitated the nearby martial artists and sent its remaining essence fleeing.
• As the Earth Rat cracked the weakened barrier, Xiao Lingling reinforced it and flung the Rat Demon away to conserve the Exquisite Pearl's power.
• Chen Fei followed Baka after the fleeing Dream-Weaving Lotus, dodged Ma Xuefei's arrows, and raced past Ling Jiahua, who failed to stop him.

Chen Fei pursued the weakened Dream-Weaving Lotus and seized it after it escaped underground, despite An Shiji, Duan Yinfeng, and Wei Baolai trying to claim it. He fled with the spiritual herb as the three gave chase, but a sudden sense of danger warned him that the Rat Demon Xiao Lingling had thrown away was approaching.

• Ling Jiahua and Ma Xuefei watched Chen Fei race ahead toward the Dream-Weaving Lotus, while three Organ Refinement Realm cultivators also pursued it.
• Chen Fei drank mind-calming medicinal juice and followed as the Dream-Weaving Lotus slowed; An Shiji, Duan Yinfeng, and Wei Baolai arrived and fought over the herb.
• The Dream-Weaving Lotus unleashed a charged mental attack and burrowed into the ground, but Chen Fei tracked it and blasted it back out.
• An Shiji attacked Chen Fei with Four Directions Seal, but Chen Fei blocked the strike, seized the exhausted Dream-Weaving Lotus, and erased its Spiritual Wisdom.
