• Su Qing swallowed the relic and absorbed its Buddha Charm while his Qiongqi and Nine Li Dao Patterns restrained its Golden Buddha Phantom.
• After more than six hours, Su Qing drained the phantom’s power, and a Golden Dao Pattern slowly condensed on his furnace lid.

• Cloud Bamboo Daoist revealed his allegiance to Penglai and tried to undermine the formation, while Old Daoist Tong used a Heavenly Master Object Sealing Talisman to enfeoff him as the Pulse Protecting God of the Star-Sun Spiritual Vein.

As Penglai prepared to summon True Person Fire Crow, Tong gathered the island’s resources and reinforcements in the Heavenly Master’s Ruins, while his divinations about Su Qing remained mysteriously blocked.

• The Old Bamboo Spirit refused Tong’s divine office, but Tong sealed a Bamboo Tip from its root and used it to replace the spirit’s consciousness with a Pulse Protecting God’s divine will.

• Tong and Madam Lanxiang moved the Langya Sect’s artifacts and Star-Sun Essence to the Heavenly Master’s Ruins, preparing for the formation to fall.
• Tong failed to divine Su Qing’s whereabouts and suspected that Su Qing’s fortune or a secret technique had hidden him, so he began divining Demoness Liu Yun’er instead.

Liu Yun'er persuaded True Person Wan to leave Shipwreck Bay with much of its strength, while Su Qing led Sea Watch in a surprise assault on the pirate stronghold. Ning Chengke took control of the bay and tried to claim the Taotie Ship, but as Sea Watch arrived, a pirate attacked him.

• True Person Wan agreed to escort Liu Yun'er to Langya Immortal Island, taking half the Western Sea Giant Monsters and leaving Ning Chengke to guard Shipwreck Bay with the Taotie Ship.
• Liu Yun'er relayed Shipwreck Bay's intelligence to Su Qing through their Two Hearts Contract, and Su Qing ordered Sea Watch to attack the bay.
• Yao Guangquan discovered a hidden passage into Shipwreck Bay, so Su Qing sent Master Liaode, Ying Wushen, Lü Wentian, Li Kuishan, and other fighters through it while leading the main fleet in a frontal assault.
• After Wan Xiari departed, Ning Chengke took charge of Shipwreck Bay and failed to form a pact with the Taotie Ship, though he retained partial control over it.
• Ning Chengke learned that Sea Watch's fleet was approaching and dismissed the threat, but a pirate rogue cultivator suddenly attacked him with powder and a dagger.

Ning Chengke discovered that Sea Watch had launched a coordinated assault on Shipwreck Bay, attacking from both the bay and the sea, and tried to lead the pirates through the blockade aboard the Taotie Ship. After Su Qing’s forces crippled the pirates’ defenses and battered the Taotie Ship, Ning Chengke challenged Su Qing to a personal duel, wagering Shipwreck Bay’s ships, weapons, and treasure on the outcome.

• Ning Chengke discovered that the supposed assassin was a puppet and hurried to the Shipwreck Bay choke point, where Sea Watch’s fleet was bombarding the bay behind Dragon Island Bi Xi.
• Ning Chengke learned that Master Liaode’s forces had infiltrated Shipwreck Bay and that the pirate family heads were fighting inside, so he ordered the pirates to break through the Sea Watch blockade.
• Ning Chengke tried to rally the Western Sea Giant Monsters, but Sea Watch’s Spirit Explosion Puppets, Golden Mane Water Lions, and Fish Dragon Puppets overwhelmed them beneath the sea.
• Su Qing offered Ning Chengke a chance to surrender, but Ning Chengke refused and sacrificed the Wan Family to unleash the Taotie Ship’s full power.
• Su Qing’s Dragon Island Bi Xi slowed the Taotie Ship with Seal Divine Light, while Sea Watch’s cannons and a hidden underwater attack damaged it despite Ning Chengke’s Devour Heaven and Earth ability.
• Ning Chengke challenged Su Qing to fight him face-to-face, wagering Shipwreck Bay’s treasure ships, cannons, and Taotie Ship against a promise to spare the surviving pirates.

Su Qing defeated Ning Chengke in a duel, captured the Taotie Ship, and led the Wanghai forces in wiping out Shipwreck Bay’s pirates. He rejected occupying the bay but joined the scramble for its treasures, while Qing He’s attempt to secretly claim a vault was foiled by Bear Two and Fire Egg.

• Su Qing accepted Ning Chengke’s challenge despite the Wanghai cultivators’ objections, then revealed that he controlled numerous Treasure Ship Puppets.

• The Taotie Ship devoured Ning Chengke’s body and soul, and Su Qing took control of the ship as the Wanghai forces destroyed the remaining pirate fleet and resistance inside Shipwreck Bay.
• Ying Jue Shen suggested that Sea Watch occupy Shipwreck Bay, but Su Qing refused because Sea Watch could not defend it against the greater powers of the West Sea.
• Su Qing sent his Puppets to gather spoils alongside the Wanghai Shipowners, while Qing He tried to claim a hidden treasure vault and Bear Two and Fire Egg removed its contents.

Su Qing subdued the Taotie Corrupt Mark, purified the Taotie Dao Pattern, and gained a powerful new treasure ship and improvements to his cultivation aptitude. While Shipwreck Bay’s spoils were being distributed, he discovered that an ordinary-looking landscape talisman painting contained the mountains and rivers from the Heavenly Sword Crossing West Diagram.

• Su Qing rejected the Taotie Corrupt Mark’s offer and used one hundred and eight High Buddhist Cultivators to subdue and purify it, claiming the complete Taotie Dao Pattern and Taotie Ship.
• Su Qing imprinted the Taotie Dao Pattern, improving its mastery, his spiritual root and bone structure, and his Puppet Immortal completeness.

Su Qing discovered that the Landscape Talisman Painting was the Mountain and River Society Diagram, an ancient refuge sheltering a Seven-Colored Little Snake that revealed the great tribulation was still far from over. Su Qing entered the diagram, and Bear Two followed him while the others guarded the captive snake outside.

• Su Qing searched the painting for its hidden Dao Pattern, but a Seven-Colored Python followed his divine sense out and was subdued by Tiger Egg and the Puppets.
• The Seven-Colored Little Snake restrained Su Qing with its eye technique, but Tiger Egg wounded it and Su Qing defeated it with the Heaven-grade Tianshan Nine Swords.
• The snake revealed that Empress Wa's Palace had entered the Mountain and River Society Diagram to survive an ongoing great tribulation, with more than nine hundred Yuan Cycles remaining before its foretold end.
• Su Qing tried to enter the diagram, while the snake failed to follow and was kept captive by the Puppets; Fire Egg attacked it, and Bear Two knocked it unconscious.
• Bear Two entered the Mountain and River Society Diagram to find Su Qing and demanded that he be released.

• Bear Two and Tiger Egg cultivated in the Wa Empress Hall while Su Qing ate incense ash, then Su Qing tried and failed to take the incense burner and Wa Empress Statue.
• The Mountain and River Child revealed that evil qi had polluted the Mountain and River Society Diagram and asked Su Qing to bring in spiritual veins to restore its mountains and rivers.

• Su Qing returned to Qing He and used the Beast Ring to capture the Seven-Colored Sky-Swallowing Python after it refused to submit.
• Qing He reported that the Wanghai Treasure Ship had suffered major losses but gained pirate ships and spoils worth over one hundred fifty thousand Spirit Stones.

He and Master Liaode survived the attack and fled with the fleet toward Langya Immortal Island, while Su Qing began searching ancient texts for clues about the Three Dragons of Heaven, Earth, and Sea.

• Su Qing pulled six Tier 3 Spiritual Veins from Shipwreck Bay and stored them in his Storage Bag, astonishing the Wanghai cultivators.
• Su Qing, Master Liaode, Tiger Egg, and Dragon Island Bi Xi worked together to extract Shipwreck Bay’s Tier 4 Spiritual Vein, and the collapsing Black Mountain triggered a violent sea storm.

• Old Daoist Tong and Madam Lanxiang feared that Penglai would break Langya Immortal Island’s formation and force them to retreat to the Heavenly Master's Ruins before fulfilling the Heavenly Master's last command.
• Old Daoist Tong revealed that Su Qing had delayed his arrival by raiding Shipwreck Bay, and he expected him to come because the Pirate Kings posed a threat to the Sea Watch fleet.
• Liu Yun’er arrived with Wan Xiari and a large force of Desiring Demon Sect members, and Old Daoist Tong admitted them to Langya Immortal Island.
• At the banquet, Liu Yun’er reminded Tong that Wan Xiari was only her uncle-in-law; Tong then postponed discussing the Yin-Yang Twin Ring she had come to obtain.
• After Liu Yun’er left, Wan Xiari privately told Tong Chang that he no longer wished to be a man, and Tong brought up Black Tortoise Lake.

Su Qing led the Sea Watch Ship Fleet toward the battle between True Person Fu Hu’s Thousand Islands Immortal Kingdom fleet and the Pirate Kings, intending to enter Langya Immortal Island with a force no one could command. The chapter ended with True Person Fu Hu recognizing that Su Qing had become a rival capable of contending for the Heavenly Master's Ruins.
