Chapter Summaries

Qing Muya and Qing Muyu considered the dangerous Glory Shield-Sword Fusion Dungeon, while the returning teams saw Chen Ming rank first after clearing a dungeon three times. Rumors that Qing Muyu would leave Golden Dawn Squad to join Qing Yao’s Eternal Radiance Squad stirred the Alliance members, who recognized Chen Ming as a possible rival for her place.

After dominating the dungeon rankings and reaching level 19, Chen Ming accepted Qing Muya’s invitation to challenge a special Fusion Dungeon with the Golden Dawn Squad. Their plan spread through the camp, drawing speculation about cooperation and a resentful outburst from an Elf Class-Changer.

• Chen Ming returned to camp with his squad, where the rankings showed Morning Light in first place with 18 clears, all high-difficulty.
• The Golden Dawn Squad greeted Chen Ming, while Qing Yao watched bitterly as Qing Muya and Qing Muyu grew closer to him.
• The Golden Dawn Squad learned Chen Ming had reached level 19, making him the highest-level Class-Changer in the camp.
• Qing Muya invited Chen Ming to challenge a special Fusion Dungeon, and Chen Ming agreed to take the Shield dungeon while the Elf Race chose the Sword.
• News of the two squads joining forces spread through the camp, prompting speculation about future cooperation and an angry Elf Class-Changer to criticize Chen Ming.

Chen Ming’s group entered the Glory Shield-Sword Fusion Dungeon, where they found that its shield and sword sections had to be activated together. Chen Ming received a dungeon item that could become a real shield after a perfect clear.

• At the teleportation camp, Su Lingyue revealed that the Alliance was considering sending its teams into a notoriously deadly third-tier sea dungeon that had gone unchallenged for twenty years.
• Chen Ming, Qing Muyu, and their companions arrived at the Fusion Dungeon and found a canyon with separate entrances for the [Shield] and [Sword] dungeons.
• Chen Ming’s group activated the [Shield] dungeon, then waited for the Golden Dawn Squad to activate the [Sword] dungeon across the canyon.
• After both dungeons activated, Chen Ming’s group entered the canyon passage and sensed the sharp Sword Qi within.
• A small Glory Shield appeared on the back of Chen Ming’s hand, granting 50% damage reduction against the Glory Knight and the possibility of becoming a rechargeable real item after a perfect clear.

Chen Ming rushed through the Sword Qi passage in the [Shield] dungeon, solidifying [Glory Shield] before reaching the final challenge. Meanwhile, Qing Muya’s squad broke through the shield walls in the [Sword] dungeon, while Qing Muyu’s permanent-binding God-Serving Position talent remained a source of concern.

• Chen Ming charged through the Sword Qi torrent, whose attacks strengthened [Glory Shield] as they struck him.
• Chen Ming reached the canyon’s central clearing and found [Glory Shield] fully solidified, though he believed defeating the final BOSS would complete it.

• Qing Muya set the minimum standard for Chen Ming’s group at matching the Golden Dawn Squad’s speed, then urged his squad to continue.
• The Golden Dawn Squad worried that Qing Yao treated Qing Muyu as a controllable asset because the God-Serving Position permanently bound its bearer to a team, and Qing Muyu denied deliberately holding back.

The Golden Dawn Squad reached Chen Ming and the Morning Light Squad in the [Glory Shield] dungeon, stunned to learn they had arrived two hours earlier. When the Glory Knight appeared, Chen Ming rejected Qing Muya’s plan to coordinate and said he would fight the BOSS alone.

• The Golden Dawn Squad broke through the final shield wall and found Chen Ming, Sun Yang, and the others waiting in the canyon.
• Chen Ming told Qing Muya that his squad had arrived about two hours earlier and casually explained that the [Glory Shield] dungeon had been easy to clear.
• The canyon transformed into a golden hall, where the level 20 Glory Knight appeared with boosted attack and defense.
• Sun Yang and the other Morning Light Squad members retreated, leaving Chen Ming behind as the Golden Dawn Squad prepared to fight.
• Qing Muya proposed that Chen Ming block the Glory Knight while the Golden Dawn Squad supported him, but Chen Ming said he would handle the BOSS alone.

Chen Ming faced the Glory Knight and proved that its boosted attacks and Peak Duel rules could not overcome his defenses. As he began trading blows with the knight, Qing Muya concluded that Chen Ming might be able to withstand the God-Serving Position.

• Chen Ming charged the fourfold-boosted Glory Knight, broke through its defense, and left it nearly falling from its horse.
• The Glory Knight activated Peak Duel and designated Qing Muyu as its opponent, forcing nearby non-duelists to face tenfold attack damage.
• Chen Ming intercepted the knight’s charge and blocked its attack, taking only one damage despite the duel’s amplified force.
• Chen Ming continued clashing head-on with the Glory Knight, building his Stacking Attack to manifested energy while the Golden Dawn Squad watched.
• Qing Muya decided Chen Ming’s defense gave him a strong chance of withstanding the God-Serving Position.

Chen Ming soloed the Glory Knight, earned a perfect rating and the Glory Shield, then reached level 20 and awakened an SSS-rank skill. Back at Alliance Headquarters, Qing Yao mistook the Golden Dawn Squad’s stunned silence for a poor result, while Chen Ming focused on Afterimage Execution.

• Chen Ming defeated the Glory Knight after his shield counters and attacks brought him to Manifested Incarnation, completing the dungeon with a perfect rating and obtaining the Glory Shield and a Peak Duel Guidance Rune Stone.
• Chen Ming decided to save the Peak Duel Guidance Rune Stone for Qin Zhixue, reached level 20, and chose to awaken his special talent skill.
• Chen Ming’s special talent granted him the SSS-rank skill Afterimage Execution.
• At Alliance Headquarters, Qing Yao saw the Morning Light Squad and Golden Dawn Squad’s dungeon-clear counts rise by three and assumed the Golden Dawn Squad had returned disappointed.
• Chen Ming and the other eight squad members arrived at camp, where the Golden Dawn Squad remained stunned by Chen Ming’s battle and Chen Ming examined his new skill.

Chen Ming examined his new SSS-rank skill, [Afterimage Execution], and planned how to level it alongside Spatial Domain. Meanwhile, Qing Yao’s smug visit prompted the Golden Dawn Squad to discuss Qing Muyu’s possible position on their team, while Chen Ming asked City Lord Xia for as many spatial resources as the Alliance could provide.

• Chen Ming assessed [Afterimage Execution]’s afterimage attacks and Shadowless clone, and considered how its execution effect could work with spatial skills.
• Chen Ming planned to devote mental clones to leveling [Afterimage Execution] while keeping Spatial Domain on track to reach lv.35 or lv.40.
• Qing Yao led the Eternal Radiance Squad past the Golden Dawn and Morning Light Squads, then entered the teleportation array with a smug glance at Qing Muyu and Chen Ming.
• Qing Muya asked Qing Muyu what she thought about the situation, and Qing Muyu said she would follow her brother’s decision; Qing Muya said they first needed Chen Ming’s approval.
• Chen Ming told City Lord Xia that he had reached Level 20 and requested as many spatial resources from the Alliance as possible.

Qing Muyu asked to join Chen Ming’s Morning Light Squad and demonstrated her God-Serving Position, a talent that permanently boosted all attributes but risked irreversible damage through defensive load. Chen Ming safely converted 1% of his mental power into Eternal Mental Power because his Absolute Defense gave the load no defense attribute to target.

• The Golden Dawn Squad asked Chen Ming about filling his squad’s vacant spot, and Qing Muya recommended Qing Muyu.
• Qing Muyu asked to join the Morning Light Squad and explained that her God-Serving Position permanently bound a recipient while exposing them to dangerous defensive load.
• Qing Muyu bestowed the God-Serving Position on Chen Ming, revealing a permanent 20% increase to all attributes and the option to convert mental power into an Eternal Attribute.
• Chen Ming chose to convert 1% of his mental power, and his Absolute Defense prevented the defensive load from finding a target.
• The conversion succeeded, granting Chen Ming 1% Eternal Mental Power.

• Qing Muyu saw that Chen Ming had succeeded at a 1% conversion, and Qing Muya explained that only Qing Yao had previously managed the same feat.

• Chen Ming welcomed Qing Muyu to the team, and Qing Muyu agreed to bind with the Morning Light Squad.
• Qing Muyu entered the Morning Light Squad as an SSS-rank God-Serving Priest, while an Elf Race elder playing chess with Liu Xingsi felt tightness in his chest.

Liu Xingsi learned that Qing Muyu's God-Serving Priest class could grant an Eternal Attribute, while the Elf Race struggled to bind her to Qing Yao. After Qing Muyu joined the Morning Light Squad, Chen Ming gained an Eternal Mental Power attribute and discovered an unusual effect among his mental clones.

• Chen Ming assigned his mental clones to train Afterimage Execution and Spatial Domain in the Dust Domain Pure Land.
• Chen Ming noticed that three mental clones consumed no mental power and a fourth consumed very little, with their combined power appearing to equal 504.

Chen Ming discovered that Eternal Mental Power let him use skills freely within a limit and used it to create a crude Pure Land in his mental space. His mental clone began leveling automatically, and he wondered whether the Dust Domain Pure Land worked the same way.

• Chen Ming tested Eternal Mental Power and found that skill use consumed no mental power up to 504 points, with only any excess being spent.
• Chen Ming asked Liu Xingsi and the elderly Elf Race man to let him study Pure Land Crystals and Sanctuary Guardians, and they allowed him to take some.

News of Chen Ming’s 10% God-Serving Position conversion stunned the Elves, and the chapter ended as Liu Xingsi and the Elf elder arrived to watch the Alliance’s strongest teams prepare for their mission.
