Chapter Summaries

The narrator recruited Feng Zhen to gather materials for a yacht capable of crossing Tongtian Mountain’s demonic qi, while he and Mei Yao began building it. After several days of work, Feng Zhen brought back a dangerous gray liquid from a tidal marsh, and the narrator recognized it as something worth investigating.

• The narrator offered Feng Zhen a Yang God Pill in exchange for scavenging rare materials that could withstand demonic qi for seven days, then took control of the cave abode and gave him the pill.
• The narrator and Mei Yao sorted the materials, and the narrator purified sand into glass for the yacht’s outer panels.
• The narrator designed the yacht and made its glass components, keel, and much of its interior from the gathered materials.
• Feng Zhen returned with a gray, viscous liquid he had found in a tidal marsh, where he had nearly died after sinking into it.
• Feng Zhen demanded at least one Heaven-Mending Pill for every ten buckets if the narrator wanted him to collect more of the liquid.

The narrator purified Feng Zhen’s corrosive slime and tested it as protection against demonic energy, finding it useful but short-lived. Feng Zhen left with a fortune in Sun God Pills, and the narrator concluded he had no intention of returning.

• Feng Zhen offered to trade ten barrels of slime for a Heaven-Mending Pill, and the narrator agreed to keep buying it.
• The narrator refined a barrel of slime into silver paste and used it to cover a Black Demon Stone, stopping its demonic energy from leaking.
• After about half an hour, the paste calcified and burst apart, showing that protecting a ship’s hull would require enormous, continual supplies.
• Feng Zhen delivered enough slime to fill a small pond and received Sun God Pills for the materials.
• Meiyao worried that Feng Zhen had encountered danger, but the narrator said he had left because he had been paid enough to roam freely.

The narrator finished building a high-tech yacht reinforced with gel and tested its mental-world scouting system. After using data analysis to follow Feng Zhen’s routes, the narrator and Yao Yao found the vast swamp where more gel could be gathered.

• The narrator completed the yacht’s framework and gel-injection system, while Feng Zhen stayed away.
• Yao Yao admired the yacht as the narrator explained its living-iron hull, gel defenses, and mental-world functions.
• The narrator tested the yacht with Yao Yao and found that its gel supply was insufficient for crossing the demonic-qi sea.
• The narrator and Yao Yao used the yacht’s data analysis to trace Feng Zhen’s routes toward Heaven-Piercing Mountain.
• They reached a swamp occupying an entire mountain valley, far larger than Feng Zhen had claimed.

After returning to Luomu Valley with demonic qi, the narrator prepared to travel to Fengxian City with several Great Perfection immortals as Yang God Pill supplies dwindled and the city blocked Luomu Valley’s purchases. When Fengxian City summoned Ling Zhao and Nan Jin, the group resolved to bring them along, and Ying Yi urged everyone to use the yacht to force a crossing to Muxian Continent.

• The narrator returned to Luomu Valley by yacht and gave Bai Cheng the bracelet so she could activate it if he was in danger.
• The narrator agreed to take Chang Jie and other Great Perfection immortals to Fengxian City because Yang God Pills were running short and Fengxian City had barred Luomu Valley from buying ingredients.
• Chang Jie told the narrator that Wo Sheng had summoned Ling Zhao and Nan Jin to Fengxian City through invitations written by Ling An and Nan Yi.
• The narrator decided to bring Ling Zhao and Nan Jin, saying they should be able to choose their own paths and that he would remove anyone who stood in their way.
• Ying Yi proposed taking everyone who wanted to reach Muxian Continent across the demonic-qi sea by force, and Bai Cheng, Xian Li, Hu Xia, and the others showed they were ready to go.

As departure for Fengtian City approached, the narrator decided to take Bai Cheng along rather than leave her as Fallenwood Valley’s new Valley Master. After the group prepared the valley and learned to operate the yacht, they reached Fengtian City, whose oppressive skies left them struggling to breathe.

• The narrator told Bai Cheng she would stay in Fallenwood Valley, but revealed the decision was a test and took her along when she broke down crying.

• After several days, the group arrived at Fengtian City and saw its dark, oppressive sky.

Yitian and his companions saw a gigantic flying island arrive over Fengxian City and learned that its occupants were demanding the immortals of Luomu Valley surrender. They avoided a deliberate collision and continued toward the city, where Yitian intended to address the Council Hearing.

• Chang Jie and Yingyi discussed the unprecedented vessel and suspected it had been built by several sects, with signs of Wufeng City.

• Yitian told Bai Cheng to meet the ship and evade it at the last moment, then discuss the matter in Fengxian City.
• Bai Cheng piloted the yacht toward the oncoming vessel, and the group adjusted its course before rising clear of a collision.

Yitian used Bai Cheng’s Absolute Domain to force the spirits of the Muxian Continent immortals from their bodies, causing their floating island to crash. He then killed a wounded Wufeng City immortal who pleaded with Yingyi for help, leaving her terrified of the consequences.

• Yingyi warned Yitian that the dead immortal had been a Wufeng City disciple and possibly a lower elder, and feared the conflict that would follow.

The narrator brought the yacht to the floating island of Enlightened Wind City, where Earth Demon Sun's bracelet disabled the ships sent to intercept them and bound the spirits of the sect elders. After the elders argued over the narrator's identity and Fengyuan's treatment, the narrator released them and stepped off the yacht with the other immortals.

• The narrator flew the yacht past Immortal City toward Enlightened Wind City's floating island and its sect gathering.
