While Qin Fengming was searching for the Bone Nourishing Stone Crystal, the participants in the beast-hunting competition gradually returned to Shou Xian Mountain.
The first to return to the Immortal Jade Hall was Qing Cang. He had not set out early to return. Instead, he had taken a shortcut by using a Teleportation Array established deep within the Savage Beast Continent.

Otherwise, I might truly have gone there and never returned,
