Chapter Summary: “Zhenshan”

Key Plot Points and Events

• The protagonist discovers a massive concentration of unstable Malevolent Energy in Liu Xiangan’s former Soul Tomb. The scale suggests that hundreds or thousands of Yin Fiends once existed there, devouring one another until only a powerful silver-gray Fiend King remained.
• The Fiend King launches a sinister Fiend Hand—not to attack the protagonist’s body, but to tear out and consume his true spirit. Its soul-based attack is powerful enough to affect him from a distance.
• Using his activated Double Pupils and Primordial Magnetism, the protagonist pierces through the Malevolent Energy’s interference and identifies the hidden Fiend King underground. The lesser Yin Fiends pose little threat.
• The battle lasts more than twenty days. The protagonist uses all his strength, including the Double Pupils Divine Light, while the battle’s aftershocks destroy the weaker Yin Fiends.
• The silver-gray Yin Fiend proves to be extraordinarily powerful—comparable to or stronger than a top Star Sea Quasi-Emperor and possibly stronger than Jin Wuya at full strength. However, its intangible soul body is especially vulnerable to the protagonist’s Double Pupils.
• The protagonist eventually kills the Fiend King. Although its soul body would have produced an exceptionally powerful soul crystal, he cannot bind or control it, making refinement impossible.
• The ancient spirit within the Zhenshan Jade Tablet secretly observes the entire battle.

Character Developments

• The protagonist: His greatly improved divine soul power allows him to withstand and analyze attacks that would previously have immobilized him. He demonstrates greater combat awareness, using the Double Pupils to perceive intangible soul traces and exploit the Yin Fiend’s weakness. He also deliberately uses Heaven and Earth Manifestation to strengthen his connection with the Zhenshan Jade Tablet.
• The silver-gray Yin Fiend: It is revealed to be the product of mass cannibalism among the Soul Tomb’s Yin Fiends. Although its intelligence is only slightly above that of a puppet, it possesses immense soul power, formidable combat ability, and enough cunning to conceal itself underground.
• The Zhenshan Jade Tablet’s ancient spirit: Its nature and history are explained. It is not an ordinary artifact spirit but a spirit clone connected to a former master, making it resistant to refinement and deeply influenced by questions of loyalty and betrayal. Its observation of the protagonist may improve its opinion of him.
• Liu Xiangan: His past ambition is emphasized. He cultivated a terrifying Fiend King using Godfall Land’s Killing Intent and repeatedly attempted to refine the Zhenshan Jade Tablet, but failed because of its ancient spirit’s resistance.

Significant Themes

• Power and control: Creating a powerful weapon or creature does not guarantee control over it. Liu Xiangan’s cultivation of the Yin Fiend raises the danger of producing something beyond his authority.
• Soul-based combat: The chapter highlights the vulnerability of the true spirit and divine soul, showing that physical defenses are useless against attacks aimed directly at one’s soul.
• Adaptation and strategic growth: The protagonist succeeds not through overwhelming strength alone, but by combining improved soul power, perception, and the Double Pupils’ countering abilities.
• Loyalty and identity: Ancient spirits are portrayed as extensions of their former masters, and being refined by another person can be interpreted as betrayal. This explains the Zhenshan Jade Tablet’s refusal to submit.
• Opportunity and loss: Killing the Yin Fiend is necessary for survival, but it also destroys the chance to refine one of the most valuable soul crystals the protagonist has ever encountered.

Character Interactions

• The protagonist directly clashes with the silver-gray Yin Fiend in a prolonged battle of soul power and perception.
• The protagonist indirectly interacts with the Zhenshan Jade Tablet by displaying Heaven and Earth Manifestation, hoping its connection to the Golden Giant will cause the tablet’s ancient spirit to view him more favorably.
• The Zhenshan Jade Tablet’s spirit acts as a silent observer rather than an active participant, evaluating the protagonist through his conduct and strength.
• Liu Xiangan’s relationship with the tablet is explored retrospectively: despite helping and saving it, he could not earn enough trust for it to accept refinement.
