After witnessing their popular medical care, safer docks, and new fish supply, he saw how thoroughly they had improved civilian life and felt increasingly isolated in his opposition.

Meanwhile, the Flower Nacre Clan’s ritual gave Cheng Han Mother God’s Flower, which would teach him their language and strengthen his spiritual power.

Cheng Han accepted the Mother God's Flower, which restored and increased his spiritual power enough to trigger the Spirit Body Mirror, bringing him within one step of becoming a Mystic Master. Water Lotus then began a ritual inside the Mother God Seashell, and the chapter left Cheng Han watching as humanlike legs appeared within it.
