Chapter Summaries

Bai Mo defeated Pei Li and led his companions across the Atlantic to Fruit Tooth, where they visited the mist-shrouded Pena Palace. After learning the palace concealed vampires, Bai Mo and the two women encountered its shifting, blood-red halls and tried to escape.

• Bai Mo killed Pei Li with Wind Dome Cannon after Pei Li was left unable to defend himself.
• The mentors gave Bai Mo’s group their next destination, and he sent Ai Jiangtu to handle Fruit Tooth’s National Pavilion Chapter while he went to Pena Palace with Jiang Shaoxu and Mu Nujiao.
• Bai Mo and the women entered Pena Palace and toured its plant-built halls as Mu Nujiao studied how the plants were used.
• At the foot of the mountain, a butler warned local mages that vampires lurked inside the palace and that his young miss, Anruo, had entered with guards.
• A silver-haired woman urged Bai Mo and the others to flee, and the palace floor and walls began writhing and turning blood red as Bai Mo lifted the group with wind and headed out.

• Anruo rescued Bai Mo, Jiang Shaoxu, and Mu Nujiao from the blood-red roots, and Bai Mo teleported both groups outside the palace.

• The two Bloodkin Elders and their warriors invoked Blood City Blessing, causing the palace’s blood-red tendrils to attach to them as an immense aura burst upward.

Bai Mo and Anruo fought the empowered bloodkin trapped inside the dead city, using layered defenses and attacks on the tentacles that fed them. Anruo’s light and Bai Mo’s life-draining lightning weakened the bloodkin, but the battle continued as they charged against him.

• The bloodkin used their tentacles to rise to Commander-in-Chief Level and unleashed a river of blood and a barrage of attacks against Bai Mo and the others.
• Anruo’s guards urged her to flee, but she pointed out that the gate had become a wall and there was no escape.

• The Duke Vampire Elder used Dark Blood Transformation to reconnect the severed tentacles and restore the bloodkin’s regeneration.

• The bloodkin charged Bai Mo, but Mountain Soul Protection blocked their attacks while his spreading lightning chains continued to sap their strength.

After Bai Mo and Anruo survived the Bloodkin battle, he used the sapphire’s memory in the Returning Swallow Mirror to uncover the history of Fadupai’s Heavenly Fathers.

After the team reached Egypt, Feng Li shared intelligence about the northwest and the Mogao Caves, while Bai Mo handed command to Ai Jiangtu and told the others about the Sahara rescue mission.

• Bai Mo declined to join the Sahara rescue, named Ai Jiangtu as the team's acting leader while he went to the Taklamakan, and heard Mu Tingying and Li Kaifeng refuse the mission.

After their companions overwhelmed the first defenders and they killed the Sand Dragon Giant Lizard commander, the Blazing Flame Horse commander led a counterattack against them.

• Bai Mo and Ding Yumian abandoned their plan to sneak into the Mogao Caves and summoned Haoyue and the Divine Dust Tiger to fight the surrounding tribes.

As Bai Mo explored the ancient murals, he discovered that they recorded humanity’s earliest attempts to awaken magic and reached the sixth realm of Mental Power before running out of Magic Energy.

• Bai Mo, Jiaoyue, Ding Yumian, and the Azure Sky Blood Lions defeated the Rock Demon Bull, the Blazing Flame Horses, and the other Demon Beasts, while a Military Mage staff officer realized the military could reclaim the Mogao Caves.

Later, the group traveled from Kunwu toward Flaming Mountain through the Taklamakan Desert, where an unfamiliar dark forest blocked their route.

• Bai Mo studied the cave murals and concluded that the sages had gained magic through nature, elemental objects, talent, age, and faith, though their experiments had cost many lives.

• As the group watched the sunset from the sand dunes, Lingling spotted a vast forest of dark trees blocking their path.

The Xuandu Hunter's Group crossed a Pseudo-Fear Demon territory and an Endless Gravity Corridor to reach Flaming Mountain, where they sought a fire Soul Seed guarded by Fire Winged Serpents. They climbed toward the serpents and arrived at a lava-flooded terrace, with the route ahead blocked by the Lava Beach.

• The Wang Brothers scouted the Pseudo-Fear Demon territory, and Ais repeatedly rescued them from vines erupting beneath the sand.
• Wu Xuan led the group to Flaming Mountain and explained that more than ten Fire Winged Serpents guarded a fire Soul Seed between two peaks.
• Lingling reasoned that the serpents were drawing energy from Flaming Mountain through the Soul Seed, and Leng Qing suspected the military wanted to prevent them from growing stronger.

• Leng Qing blocked the counterattack with Earth Dragon Vein and sent it crashing toward the serpents, while Jiang Feng and the hunters engaged their targets.
• Bai Mo summoned Jiaoyue and the Divine Dust Tiger to fight two serpents, then faced another serpent’s blazing spear without dodging because hunters stood behind him.

Bai Mo killed several Fire Winged Serpents with his spatial magic and silver hairpin gun, then joined Ding Yumian to support Leng Qing’s group against Flame Witch Jiang Feng and the remaining serpents. He and Ding Yumian arrived at the battle and immediately killed two more Fire Winged Serpents, leaving the larger fight unresolved.

• Bai Mo killed one Fire Winged Serpent with Hidden Star Fall and his silver hairpin gun, then defeated another after it broke free and tried to flee into a magma fissure.

• Lingling planned a route around the most dangerous parts of the Taklamakan, and Bai Mo’s group departed with Wen Du’s Hunter’s Group after they recovered their Magic Energy.
• The group traveled along the desert’s edge near the Tianshan Mountains and encountered increasingly dangerous Demon Beasts and poisonous insects.
• After a Hunter was poisoned and began to break down, Ding Yumian used Mind Element magic to put him into a deep sleep while Wen Du arranged for him to be cared for.

Bai Mo and Xuandu Hunter's Group were caught between the Frostwind Dragon Horses and Deadly Sand Deer and chose to fight through the Deadly Sand Deer. Bai Mo, Jiaoyue, and the Divine Dust Tiger carved a widening route through the herd, while Wen Du wondered whether Jiaoyue could sustain the battle.

• The Frostwind Dragon Horses and Deadly Sand Deer charged toward each other with Bai Mo and Xuandu Hunter's Group trapped between them.
• Wu Xuan calmed the group and organized a wedge formation to break through the Deadly Sand Deer, with Bai Mo and his Contracted Beasts clearing the way.
• The Divine Dust Tiger smashed through the front ranks as Jiaoyue's lightning and Bai Mo's wind-and-earth magic widened the breach.

• Five Commanders surrounded Bai Mo, so Leng Qing summoned Jiang Feng, who set them ablaze; Bai Mo asked her to spare them and harvested all five Essence Souls himself.
• The remaining Deadly Sand Deer fled after the seven Commanders died, and Bai Mo reassured Leng Qing as Lingling estimated that the team was nearing the Taklamakan crossing.
