Chapter Summaries

Chen Luo escaped the Old Ghost of Underworld’s Flame Prison by sacrificing his Dragon Pearl clone, while Daoist Ge revealed his strength and fought the Old Ghost. Chen Luo fled to a remote, icy region to cultivate with the Qionghua Sect’s Dao, but found that its mountain lacked the terrain needed for his breakthrough.

• Chen Luo failed to escape the Flame Prison, pretended Daoist Ge was his eldest brother, and charged the Old Ghost of Underworld before his clone and Dragon Pearl remnant soul were burned away.
• The Old Ghost of Underworld accused Daoist Ge of killing his subordinates and demanded the item, so Daoist Ge struck him with a black stone and subdued him in a Green Bamboo Spirit Domain.

• Chen Luo traveled west for half a month and settled on a remote, snow-covered mountain, carrying the Qionghua Sect’s Dao as a potential path to Dao Integration Realm.
• Chen Luo found the mountain peak unsuitable for a cultivation retreat, and his step caused the mountaintop to tilt and collapse.

• The Plague Beast burned one of the paintings and released gray particles that touched the Talisman Daoist, turning his robe green as the power spread up his arm.

Chen Luo sent puppets to gather Yang-attributed spirit materials for his cultivation, but Dragon Island’s robber cultivators robbed them. He used a Soul Curse to kill the raiders across Dragon Island, including its Nascent Soul island master.
