Chapter Summaries

Qin Jishi watched helplessly as Bailong was overwhelmed by Crimson Eye and Corpse Burner, then sealed inside the Heaven Burning Corpse Refining Cauldron. Bailong endured the Nine Nether Demonic Fire while Qin Jishi, desperate to reach her, begged Hong'er to break the barrier.

• Qin Jishi spat out blood, and Hong'er gave him a healing pill as he crawled to the barrier and called for Bailong.
• Bailong silently endured her injuries, believing that Qin Jishi needed enough hatred to awaken the evil within him and return to his peak.
• Corpse Burner and Crimson Eye attacked Bailong together, and Crimson Eye struck her from behind while Corpse Burner summoned the Blood Pupil Eye.
• Crimson Eye threw Bailong into the Heaven Burning Corpse Refining Cauldron, where the Nine Nether Demonic Fire began to consume her.
• Qin Jishi saw Bailong's body turning ethereal inside the cauldron and begged Hong'er to break the barrier.

Hong'er and the others joined forces to break the barrier trapping White Dragon, while Crimson Eye and Corpse Burner attacked from outside. After the violent clash, the dust cleared to reveal a sight that shocked the two attackers.

• Hong'er unleashed her phoenix power against the barrier, but her flames left it unharmed.
• At Qin Jishi's urging, Hong'er began overdrawing her potential, and Qin Si, Liu Wuxie, Xuanyuan Batian, Xuanyuan Changkong, Qin Xiao, and the others joined her attack.
• Crimson Eye recognized Qin Si as a threat and urged Corpse Burner to destroy the barrier before the group could turn the fight around.
• Crimson Eye and Corpse Burner struck from outside as Hong'er and the others attacked from within, shaking the barrier and devastating the surrounding area.
• After the dust cleared, Crimson Eye and Corpse Burner stared in disbelief at what they saw.

Crimson Eye and Corpse Burner failed to break the White Dragon’s barrier but believed the battered group could no longer threaten them, so they prepared to refine her. Feng Xueyi revealed that Qin Jishi’s injuries were too severe for her to be sure he could ever cultivate again, then hinted at a bold conjecture that might still save him.

• Crimson Eye and Corpse Burner found only a tiny crack in the barrier and decided to refine the White Dragon while their enemies were incapacitated.
• Hong'er and Qin Si crawled to Qin Jishi as Qin Xiao collapsed from grief and urged the others to check on his son.
• Feng Xueyi used profound energy to protect Qin Jishi’s last breath and examined his critical injuries.
• Hong'er asked whether Feng Xueyi’s earlier method could restore Qin Jishi’s cultivation, but Feng Xueyi said his ruptured meridians and crushed organs made success uncertain.
• Feng Xueyi told Hong'er that she had a bold conjecture, though she did not know whether it would work.

Feng Xueyi proposed using Qin Si's blood essence to awaken Qin Jishi's dormant bloodline, followed by Hong'er's phoenix blood essence to attempt Nirvana Rebirth. Qin Si chose to risk losing his cultivation to save his father, and Qin Xiao allowed the attempt to begin.

• Feng Xueyi suggested that Qin Si's blood essence might awaken Qin Jishi's bloodline and Hong'er's phoenix blood essence might restore his life.
• Liu Wuxie agreed the method could work and said Qin Jishi might recover his cultivation, potentially resolving the crisis and saving Senior White Dragon.
• Feng Xueyi warned that Qin Si could suffer lasting damage to his foundation or lose the ability to cultivate, depending on how long Qin Jishi's bloodline took to awaken.
• Hong'er offered to try the method first, but Qin Si insisted he was willing to become an ordinary person if it meant saving his father.
• Qin Xiao agreed to honor Qin Si's choice, and everyone formed an isolation barrier around Qin Jishi, Qin Si, and Hong'er.

Qin Si poured his blood essence into Qin Jishi to revive him, exhausting himself without seeing an immediate response. Meanwhile, Corpse Burner and Crimson Eye attacked White Dragon inside the barrier, while Chen Xi remained convinced Qin Jishi would return.

• Qin Si infused Qin Jishi with a drop of blood essence, bathing the barrier in scarlet light, while Crimson Eye and Corpse Burner assumed the barrier would eventually fall.
• Corpse Burner drove the Nine Nether Demonic Fire at White Dragon, and she screamed as Crimson Eye urged him to torment her.
• The Hall Master of Crimson Blood asked Chen Xi whether Qin Jishi was truly dead, and Chen Xi suggested Mr. Wonderful Brush and the others would not act as they did if Qin Jishi were gone.
• Chen Xi privately believed Qin Jishi would return and noted that his Chaos Bloodline had turned disaster into fortune.
• When one drop of blood essence did not revive Qin Jishi, Qin Si infused him with ten more and then sacrificed his final drop despite Hong'er's warning.
• Qin Si collapsed, and the blood essence passed through Qin Jishi's body before vanishing without any visible change; Hong'er checked him with her divine sense and shook her head.

Hong'er and Qin Si tried to revive Qin Jishi with their essence blood, and after they believed both attempts had failed, five-colored light emerged from his body and began healing him. Meanwhile, inside the Heaven Burning Corpse Refining Cauldron, Corpse Burner intensified the flames around White Dragon and tried to turn him into a puppet.

• Qin Si's essence blood produced no reaction in Qin Jishi, so Hong'er gave him ten drops of her own essence blood to trigger Nirvana Rebirth.
• Qin Jishi's body erupted in flames, but the flames vanished and he remained motionless, leaving Hong'er and Qin Si convinced their efforts had failed.
• Blue light appeared between Qin Jishi's brows, followed by five-colored radiance that healed his wounds and restored life force to his organs.
• Hong'er told Qin Si that they might have succeeded as the comfortable light eased their weakness.
• Inside the Heaven Burning Corpse Refining Cauldron, Corpse Burner made the flames engulfing White Dragon more violent and began forming seals to turn him into a puppet.

Corpse Burner and Crimson Eye poured their power into the Heaven Burning Corpse Refining Cauldron to refine White Dragon, but her calm smile made them suspect she had tricked them.

• Corpse Burner and Crimson Eye looked toward the barrier and became petrified by what they saw.
