Chapter Summaries

After five years away, Ning Xiaochuan reunited with his family and returned with Su Linger to investigate a spreading black fog near Qingyun City. They traced its source to the Ning Family Old Mine and entered the cave to confront the unknown threat.

• Ning Xiaochuan and Su Linger learned that black fog was spreading across the Open Source Continent and set out for Qingyun City after promising Bai Ling they would return within three days.

• Ning Zhantian reunited with Ning Xiaochuan and showed him a strange living ore containing a designed Biological Imprint.
• Ning Xiaochuan sent Ning Zhantian back to defend Qingyun City and entered the Mine Cave with Su Linger and the Sacred Spirit Dragon.

Ning Xiaochuan, Su Linger, and the Sacred Spirit Dragon uncovered a living growth beneath the mountain and fought a parasite-driven assault on Qingyun City. After the sorcerer infected Ning Xiaochuan with Red Threads, he suppressed them for now and decided they must return to the Sacred Source Land as outbreaks spread elsewhere.

• Ning Xiaochuan and Su Linger found a pulsating tumor in the mine cavern, fought its regenerating tentacles, and fled as the mountain collapsed.

True Man Xuanyu stabilized Ning Xiaochuan’s infection with Dark Origin Qi, and the group prepared to travel to Sky City to study the ancient murals and find a way to seal it.

• Star Radiance identified the Red Markings on Ning Xiaochuan as a primordial bloodline, and the group connected the Bloodline Mother’s weakening seal to the Void Master’s disruption of the earth veins.

• Ning Xiaochuan decided to travel to Sky City, while Su Linger discovered that the Bloodline Mother’s markings resembled patterns on the Primal Crown and that it could adapt to their powers.
• The Red Markings spread onto Su Linger when they adapted to her Profound Ice Power, but True Man Xuanyu arrived and used a staff containing Dark Origin Qi to stabilize them and reveal their energy flow diagram.
• The Sacred Spirit Dragon’s Dragon Breath made the Red Markings respond, leading Ning Xiaochuan and Xuanyu to suspect that learning to communicate with the Bloodline Mother could help them transform its threat into strength.
• Xuanyu agreed to accompany Ning Xiaochuan to Sky City the next day to investigate the murals for clues to a permanent seal.

Ning Xiaochuan and his allies discovered that the Five Powers, the Primal Crown, the Void Master, and the Bloodline Mother were bound in a fragile balance, while a Black Robe Sorcerer was transforming into a Primal Envoy. With seven days until the full moon, they planned a three-pronged effort to stop the transformation at the world’s Connection Points.

• Bai Ling’s imitation Primal Crown stabilized the cracking Energy Membrane long enough for Xuanyu to teleport the group back to the Observatory Tower.

• The group prepared to act before the Primal Envoy completed its transformation at the full moon, seven days away.

Ning Xiaochuan, Su Linger, and the Sacred Spirit Dragon confronted the emerging Primal Envoy in the Mine Cave, escaping after it fused tendrils with Ning Xiaochuan’s Red Markings.

After using all three fragments to wield Crown Power and drive the Envoy away, he learned the fourth fragment was in the Abyss of the Deep Sea and set out as the full moon approached.

• Ning Xiaochuan and Su Linger returned to the Tianyuan Sect, where True Man Xuanyu revealed that the Soul Suppressing Bell held a Primal Fragment.

Five years after failing to break through their realm, Ning Xiaochuan and Su Linger discovered a hidden space beneath the Eye of the Storm and a connection to the Primal Dragon’s three World Gate Tokens.
