Chapter Summaries

Jiang Chuan prepared for the North Sea Realm demon immortal’s possible attack on Nandu City, bought better battle armor, and used an Earth Dragon Flower to advance his Mortal Transformation. After tempering his spleen, he tested his strength, and the punching-power reading continued climbing past 4,000.

• Qu Shi announced that traces of the North Sea Realm’s demon immortal had been found in Nandu City and assigned Jiang Chuan’s team to patrol Yifu Street, Hongfu Street, and Cuifu Street.
• Jiang Chuan found that battle armor prices had risen, and Meng Nanxi lent him 3,000 Merit Points so he could buy A-grade Alloy Battle Armor.

• Jiang Chuan punched the power tester, and its reading quickly climbed past 4,000.

Jiang Chuan discovered that his strength had exceeded the ordinary limit for a Three Realms cultivator, received weapons and a Tiger Bone Rain Dew Wine reward, and speculated about the true form of the Sun Wheel Divine Sword. He began his assigned street patrol the next morning and arrived at Meng Nanxi’s suggested location on Cuifu Street, Number 172, where he questioned her idea of a great place.

Jiang Chuan and Meng Nanxi established a surveillance post at Guangming Shopping Mall to guard nearby streets, where Kang Bo showed off his Dragon Horse Dao foundation. As crowds filled the streets ahead of Lu Ping’s planned sacrifice, Jiang Chuan worried about the danger to civilians and left with Meng Nanxi to visit her grandfather.

Jiang Chuan accompanied Meng Nanxi by helicopter to her grandfather Meng Weiyi’s home atop Dragon Leap Building, where Meng Weiyi questioned how Jiang could control the Power of Heaven and Earth at the Third Realm.

• Meng Nanxi asked Meng Weiyi to advise Jiang Chuan on refining the True Sun Fire and forging his Dao Foundation, so Meng Weiyi led them into an enormous room.

Meng Weiyi explained two risky methods for Jiang Chuan to refine the True Sun Fire, including replacing his dantian with an artificial one, while Jiang Chuan considered other options. Meng Weiyi brought in three cultivators to demonstrate Wrath of the Firmament and test Jiang Chuan’s claim that he practiced it.

• Meng Weiyi taught Jiang Chuan about spirit-fire foundation methods and proposed using the Yin River Blood Fiend Technique to suppress the True Sun Fire.
• Meng Weiyi revealed the Artificial Cultivator Project’s plan to use the Sun God Wood containing the True Sun Fire to create an artificial dantian for Jiang Chuan.

Jiang Chuan began cultivating the Heavenly River Scripture to prepare to suppress and refine the True Sun Fire, then met with his Combat Team as Song Zhiyi and Meng Nanxi revealed their Dao Foundations. He traded Meng Nanxi the Original Text of Wrath of the Firmament for spirit water, and froze when someone arrived an hour later.
