After learning of strange Earth Devouring Worm incidents along the railway, he realized a threat lay ahead and called for attendant Yu Yulan, whose unusual aura had drawn his attention.

• Cheng Han and Qian Qingqing discussed expanding railways and the Science Magic Research Institute’s plan to replace Crystal Energy power with cheaper internal-combustion engines.

• Cheng Han ordered an attendant to summon Yu Yulan after the Black Cat’s investigation revealed her unusual aura and a problem ahead along the route.

Cheng Han discovered that Yu Yulan had been turned into a spy for the Praying Life Society and chose to let the railcar continue so he could expose and eliminate the enemy. He identified the threat as a likely attack involving Earth Devouring Worms and warned that a giant one could swallow the entire railcar.

Cheng Han reassured Qian Changyun about the giant Earth Devouring Worm, gave him a dagger made from a Giant Sea Spider spike, and ordered an emergency live-combat test. He began awakening the Myriad Mysteries Spirit Banyan Sprout to face the approaching danger, and the chapter ended with him glowing green.

With the danger cleared and the Worm reduced to stone, Cheng Han left those with him staring at the towering Giant Tree.

• Cheng Han activated the Banyan Spirit Extinction Spears, which drained the Giant Earth Devouring Worm’s life force and strengthened the Banyan Spirit Line.

• Cheng Han confirmed that the Giant Earth Devouring Worm had been killed, rewarded the railcar staff, and invited Qian Qingqing to inspect the Giant Tree while ordering Yu Yulan brought over.

Meanwhile, Cheng Han relaxed with Qian Qingqing and Qian Changyun on the spirit tree and showed off the gifts its branches gave Qian Qingqing.
