• Xiaomeng arrived with Qu Jianlei and settled the Red Phoenix disciples, including the injured Qi Rongxun, who had chosen the name Sun Rongxun.
• Feng Jun recognized Qu Jianlei and welcomed Xiaomeng, who explained that Qu had become a consecrated elder of Red Phoenix with a plaque at the Orthodoxy Platform.

• Qu Jianlei said Feng Jun’s divination had guided him to Core Embrace, but Feng Jun replied that Qu’s own opportunity had arrived.

Feng Jun kept the origin of Qu Jianlei’s Core Embrace opportunity secret while Xiaomeng asked about the unusual fruit, and the Yin Soul Big Shot argued with him over giving her another. After another True Adept arrived and Qu Jianlei reunited with his former partner, he reflected that Xiaomeng’s help had changed his fate.

• Sumiao asked how Feng Jun had performed the Divination that helped Qu Jianlei achieve Core Embrace, then left after speaking with him and Xiaomeng.

Huangfu Wuxia and Kong Ziyi visited Feng Jun, where they encountered a woman seeking revenge on Adept Ma for killing her father and elder brother.

• Huangfu Wuxia and Kong Ziyi found Feng Jun speaking with a woman who said she had come to take Adept Ma’s head because he had killed her father and elder brother.

• Xia Ziling recounted how Adept Ma killed her father and brother, attacked the Xia family, and continued to threaten them after the Myriad Blessings Platform intervened.

He then considered compensation from the Azuresteel Sect and requested a Teleportation Array linking Liba Beach and Pacify Arms Mountain, a costly route spanning more than a million li.

• Feng Jun offered Xia Ziling information about Adept Ma's family in exchange for the Xia family's Golden Core cultivation technique for the Primordial Chaos Heaven-Swallowing Art.
• Feng Jun revealed that he practiced the Primordial Chaos Heaven-Swallowing Art and wanted to gather different versions to derive a Golden Core technique for himself.

Feng Jun then prepared to travel to Mingsha Market to advance, with Qu Jianlei insisting on accompanying him while the other cultivators stayed to guard Liba Beach.

• Feng Jun rejected Spirit Stone compensation and requested a one-way Teleportation Array registered at Mingsha Market, along with two sets of Teleportation Array Discs.
• Heavenly King Liang accepted that the Battle Hall would have to cover much of the compensation, despite the costs wiping out over half of his accumulated wealth.
• Feng Jun decided to visit Mingsha Market and use his fifty-five Heavenly Fragrance Fruits to advance, but Kong Ziyi and the Golden Core cultivators objected to him traveling.

He gave Lin Heihu a Spirit Cultivation technique with poor compatibility and considered using Spirit Stones to strengthen him before cleansing away his Incense Faith Power.

• Feng Jun agreed to consider admitting more critically ill patients after the Nursing Center was completed, and Huahua revealed that it had arranged medical experts, equipment, and thirty trainee nurses.
• The sixth batch of patients entered the Recovery Center, and Feng Jun later traveled with Good Scenery to Fugu Mountain and paid Guan Shanyue to open the Secret Realm.
• Feng Jun told Lin Heihu that he had found him a Spirit Cultivation technique and that the ancient corpse had to be destroyed.
• Feng Jun divined that Lin Heihu had only forty-five percent compatibility with Spirit Emerges from the Nine Heavens, leaving Lin Heihu unsure whether to cultivate it.
• Ma Sanniang suggested that removing Lin Heihu's Incense Faith Power might improve compatibility, but Feng Jun warned that Lin Heihu's soul might not survive the cleansing at his current strength.
• Lin Heihu said one Spirit Stone could raise him to the Eighth Layer of Mortal Transcendence, and Feng Jun offered ten while asking how long recovery would take.

Lin Heihu accepted Feng Jun’s Spirit Stones to restore his cultivation while Ma Sanniang plotted to claim some by inventing a loan. After Feng Jun returned to Luohua Manor, he questioned Shen Qingyi about Jade Ruins’s expanding martial schools and suspected the sect might soon move against him.

• Feng Jun gave Lin Heihu ten Spirit Stones and a cultivation manual, then left with Good Scenery.
• Ma Sanniang pressured Lin Heihu to hand over Spirit Stones, but he refused and insisted he needed them to cultivate.

Feng Jun held a large celebration for his advancement to Mid Emergence from Dust, drawing Daoists from across the land and prompting many to inspect Luohua Manor’s Spirit-Gathering Formations. The gathering left Yu Baiyi stunned by Feng Jun’s resources, while Shen Qingyi learned that Jade Ruins’ sect master had emerged from seclusion but stayed away out of fear of Feng Jun.

• Feng Jun asked Shen Qingyi whether Jade Ruins’ sect master had emerged, and she said he remained in death seclusion until reaching Emergence from Dust.
• Celestial Master Zhang attended Feng Jun’s celebration, hoping to improve Jiaohuang Mountain’s relationship with Luo Hua and gain Feng Jun’s approval to enter the Secret Realm.

• Yu Baiyi saw Feng Jun’s Spirit-Gathering Formations and heard Shen Qingyi speculate that Feng Jun might become the first Golden Core cultivator on Blue Star.
• Yu Baiyi revealed that Jade Ruins’ sect master had emerged as a Half-Step Emergence from Dust Adept but avoided the celebration because he feared Feng Jun.

Feng Jun dealt with security intruders and met Richard, whose Cancer Gene sparked his interest in cancer treatment, though he refused to help other foreign patients or exchange knowledge with Mei Clinic. He then welcomed his high school classmate Liu Yong at Pump One and asked why he had come.

• A head of the Dangyan Mountain Lineage sneaked into the villa district to reach the Jadeite Tower, but Gao Qiang spotted him and Feng Jun's group caught him and performed a Soul Search.
• Martial Ancestor disciples clashed with Recovery Center security while trying to inspect the facility, then backed down when guards pointed guns at them.
• Feng Jun agreed to prioritize Richard if his Cancer returned after discovering that Richard had a Cancer Gene, but refused his request to treat other Mairui patients or communicate with Mei Clinic.
• Feng Jun found several people with Cancer-Prone Constitutions and two with manifest high-risk cases, and noticed cultivators seemed less likely to develop Cancer.
• Feng Jun received his high school classmate Liu Yong in the pavilion by Pump One, and Liu Yong asked whether the manor belonged to him.

Feng Jun met his former classmate Liu Yong, who asked him to help move celebrity Xu Xiaofu up the care queue for bone Cancer. Later, Feng Jun inspected unusual gifts from Jiaohuang Mountain, discovering a third Stone Ring and a peach pit descended from a peach tree linked to the peaches of immortality.

• Liu Yong told Feng Jun that Xu Xiaofu needed care for bone Cancer, and Feng Jun agreed to request a place in the next batch.
• Feng Jun asked Li Shishi to bar further visitors from the estate and move Xu Xiaofu into the next round of care recipients.
• Li Shishi told Feng Jun that Celestial Master Zhang of Jiaohuang Mountain had sent a peach pit, a supposed five-colored divine stone, and a dark gray stone coin.
• Feng Jun found that the stone coin brought forth a third Stone Ring and recognized the peach pit as a second-generation cutting-grown descendant of a tree linked to the peaches of immortality.
• Feng Jun identified the five-colored stone as an ordinary but old object, while Yang Yuxin wondered whether the peach pit came from the Queen Mother's peach of immortality.

After Feng Jun accepted the Flat Peach Pit and granted Jiaohuang Mountain cancer-treatment referrals, Celestial Master Zhang learned the pit was genuine but impossible to grow on Blue Star. The chapter ended with Zhang regretting parting with it but not daring to ask Feng Jun to return it.

• Yang Yuxin moved into the Rear Building because the Front Building was full, and Feng Jun let her take the peach pit if she wanted it.
• Li Shishi told Feng Jun that Celestial Master Zhang wanted cancer-treatment referrals and Three Lives Wine access, so Feng Jun granted Jiaohuang Mountain three cancer-treatment slots each round.
• Feng Jun hosted a celebration banquet where guests received Spirit Rice and Body-Tempering Pills, while the Yu family set off permitted fireworks to mark Phase One opening to traffic.
• Celestial Master Zhang stayed behind to thank Feng Jun and ask whether the Flat Peach Pit had pleased him, and Feng Jun confirmed it was genuine.
• Celestial Master Zhang asked whether the pit could be grown, but Feng Jun said Blue Star lacked the spiritual energy and Zhang would not live long enough to see the tree bear fruit.
• Feng Jun offered to return the pit, but Celestial Master Zhang did not dare accept the offer.

Feng Jun discussed Jiaohuang Mountain’s Stone Ring and its broken inheritance with Celestial Master Zhang, then heard proposals for a Daoist martial competition. He resisted taking charge of the Dragon Gate Assembly, but the other leaders pressed him to oversee it as the Daoist Order’s most influential cultivator.

• Feng Jun told Celestial Master Zhang that the Stone Ring was likely part of a magical artifact and agreed to study it, while Celestial Master Zhang explained that Jiaohuang Mountain had lost most of its scriptures and Thunder Arts.
• Feng Jun considered repaying Jiaohuang Mountain’s gift with cultivation techniques rather than Spirit Stones, but decided to wait for a suitable opportunity.
• Steward Feng, Zhang Dongyuan, Azure Firmament Master, and Dong Zenghong met Feng Jun to discuss organizing the Dragon Gate Assembly, a martial competition for Daoist disciples.
• The Daoist branches disagreed over who should host the assembly, with Martial Ancestor, Azure Mountain, and Jiaohuang Mountain all seeking a role while other sects demanded fair representation.
• Feng Jun said he wanted Luohua Manor to stay low-key and declined to lead the event, but Azure Firmament Master, Dong Zenghong, and Zhang Dongyuan urged him to take responsibility.
