Arc 29Into the Forgotten Sea
Qin Guan defeated Danchenzi in a pill contest, secured the consequences of Xuan Zhan and Yin Yue’s wager, and built ties with Shen Chi and Fu Tianzun. After preparing for the journey, Qin Guan and Zi Qing entered the Forgotten Sea of Realms and reached an island where they needed fishing gear but could not access their stored treasures.
- Danchenzi completed an Immortal Grade Pill with help from a wisp of Ethereal Golden Light and vowed to kill Qin Guan, while Qin Guan treated Zi Qing’s blood as an ingredient for Xiao Guo’s Yin Yang Great Strength Pill.
- Shen Chi paid Qin Guan two hundred and fifty billion Dao Stones to remove the Karma Sword Qi from his Great Dao Tablet, and Qin Guan used the largest strand to restore Shen Chi’s cultivation.
- Shen Chi urged Fu Tianzun and Ye Jiufeng to make peace with Qin Guan, while Danchenzi arrived at the Immortal Pavilion and Xuan Zhan wagered his and Yin Yue’s lives against Qin Guan and Qing Li’s.
- Qin Guan obtained the Zhenyuan Immortal Pill recipe and ingredients from the Xuantian Heavenly Dao, then beat Danchenzi’s pill in the contest and won the wager as Danchenzi conceded defeat.
- Fu Tianzun enforced the bet and handed Xuan Zhan over to Qin Guan, after which Qin Guan opened the Immortal Pavilion with pills and talismans that drew a rush of buyers.
- Diao Deyi gave Qin Guan the Divine Travel Escape Heaven Technique, and Fu Tianzun paid him while Qin Guan learned that the dark jade slip contained the Immortal Slaying Talisman’s Nine Tribulation Strokes.
- Qin Guan mastered the first three layers of the escape technique, and he and Zi Qing prepared to enter the Forgotten Sea of Realms, where they encountered an island trial with dangerous waters and a fishing-ground restriction.
- Qin Guan and Zi Qing learned that they could not access their stored treasures at the Fishing Tackle Shop, refused the proprietress’s offer, and decided to find another way to get Sea Shells.
