Chapter Summaries

After studying the inheritance and discovering evidence that someone had taken an item from the corpse, Chen Mobai secured the remaining relics and turned to two pending matters in the Immortal Sect.

• Jiang Zongheng learned that Han Ronglu’s Jade Slip contained the Hidden Dragon Pill formula and rewarded him, then brought Zhao Gui to Zheng City to meet King Zhao.
• King Zhao asked Jiang Zongheng for a way to prolong his life, but Jiang left him only pills to regulate his vital energy; Mou Xiaotian then convinced the disappointed king to cultivate the Six Dragons Riding Heaven Scripture and become his incarnation.
• King Zhao died that night, and Jiang Zongheng delivered the scripture and cave relics to Chen Mobai, who studied the cultivation method and considered its potential.
• Chen Mobai found lingering Fourth Grade energy in the corpse’s chest bone, deduced that someone had taken an item within the past year, and returned with Jiang Zongheng to inspect the cave.

Chen Mobai helped Yan Bingxuan prepare for Core Formation and offered Wenren Xuewei Tushita Fire to aid her Nascent Formation. Their discussion of cultivation led to Wenren Xuewei revealing that Goumang Dao Academy could help make a Water Spirit Talisman from Chen Mobai’s Innate Water Element Essence, though they still needed a fifth-tier Talisman Master.

• Chen Mobai gave Yan Bingxuan a Water Origin Golden Core Pill, and she left for Linwu Cave Heaven to pursue Core Formation.

Chen Mobai and Zhou Shengqing investigated the failing seal around Yellow Dragon Cave Mansion after defeating a poisonous incarnation of Poison Dragon. At the Sun Family’s seal, Chen discovered the Nine Stream Plate had been tampered with, and the Poison Dragon Ancestor emerged from the void, triggering a Heavenly Tribulation.

• Poison Dragon Ancestor fled toward the Yellow Dragon Cave Mansion gateway, but Chen Mobai’s hidden Sea Stabilizing Sword pierced its tail wound, chest, and Sea of Consciousness.

After killing Poison Dragon Ancestor, Chen Mobai discovered that danger still lingered, while two Demonic Path Nascent Souls chose not to attack him. He recovered, secured the Yellow Dragon Cave Mansion for the Five Elements Sect, and helped Qing Nü dissect the demon’s corpse, but the Heavenly Heart Warning remained as he watched the gateway.
