Chapter Summaries

Great Qin used testimony from allied and conquered cities to counter accusations of cruelty, splitting the anti-Qin alliance and avoiding another war. After gaining 240 cities and strengthening its forces, Zhao Fu returned to the real world and learned that the Ming Dynasty and Great Song Dynasty had struck the White Lotus Sect, which then sought Great Qin’s protection.

• Cities that Great Qin had aided and conquered publicly testified that it had treated them kindly, turning northern public opinion in Great Qin’s favor.
• The anti-Qin forces fell apart as city lords withdrew, while escaped lords and other critics traded accusations with Great Qin without either side fighting.
• Great Qin’s defenders guarded the Great Wall as its opponents, with only four hundred city lords and forty million troops, declined to attack.
• Great Qin gained 240 cities, twenty-two million Tier 1 soldiers, and a population exceeding one hundred and ten million, then paused to consolidate its strength.
• Zhao Fu returned to the real world and learned that the Ming Dynasty and Great Song Dynasty had dealt heavy blows to the White Lotus Sect, which asked Great Qin for protection.

Zhao Fu arranged shelter for the White Lotus Sect and people who had helped him, then Great Qin resumed its secret expansion after the verbal conflict with the eastern factions subsided. One overnight operation captured a snowbound region, though resistance in one city caused heavy casualties.

• Zhao Fu agreed to shelter the White Lotus Sect and sent his subordinates a list of people to invite into Ying Family territory for protection.
• After a week of verbal fighting with the eastern factions, Great Qin prepared a secret campaign to seize one region per day using isolation arrays and teams of City Lords.
• Under cover of night, a hundred cloaked City Lords overwhelmed the leaders of a snowbound region's four main cities.
• One city resisted, and Great Qin killed its City Lord; the fighting left sixty thousand Tier 1 soldiers and more than a hundred thousand civilians dead.
• Great Qin transported the region's population back and erased signs of the invasion, while the captured people realized Zhao Fu had been behind it.

Great Qin reached a level five capital city as Zhao Fu continued secretly taking regions, but widespread disappearances exposed the tactic and forced him to stop. He staged a new raid and blamed the eastern factions, leaving the two sides locked in renewed accusations.

• Zhao Fu inspected Great Qin City after it upgraded to a level five capital city and saw that it needed 800 million experience to reach level six.

• Zhao Fu ordered a raid in which Great Qin’s men captured two cities and killed people while claiming that those who resisted Great Qin would die.
• Great Qin denounced the eastern factions as the ones framing it and threatened to send troops unless they explained themselves.

Great Qin forced the eastern factions to admit fault and used its victory to strengthen its reputation and attract new City Lords. As the Six Days Festival began, Zhao Fu reflected on how past festivals had provided Great Qin with vital assets and weapons.

• Great Qin threatened to attack the eastern factions, and one hundred City Lords withdrew from their alliance as the factions fell silent.
• The remaining eastern factions admitted fault to avoid war, and Great Qin accepted their apology while more than a dozen City Lords joined it.
• Zhao Fu regretted that Great Qin had missed the chance to destroy the eastern factions, then sent envoys to recruit nearby cities rather than risk a distant campaign.
• The Six Days Festival began, with each of its six days revisiting a different festival from the human world's past.
• Zhao Fu recalled the valuable professions, items, and creatures Great Qin had gained through earlier festivals and kept its Void Talisman Paper in reserve against human players.

Zhao Fu reviewed the final festival’s ranking rewards and decided that Great Qin would focus on obtaining three ghost-related troop types and three Legendary cities. With the Six-Day Festival approaching and natural disasters temporarily halted, he stopped other affairs and prepared Great Qin for the event.

• Zhao Fu examined the eighteen ranking rewards, including Saint Artifacts, rare pills, troop types, cities, famous generals’ fortunes, and legendary beasts.

• Zhao Fu halted other matters and prepared Great Qin for the Six-Day Festival.
• Factions across the human world prepared for the event as the natural disasters temporarily ceased.

As the Festival of Ten Thousand Flowers began, Zhao Fu discovered that its beautiful World of Flowers also spawned dangerous flower demons carrying ranked Flower Tears. With Mei Mei guiding him to a huge demon, Zhao Fu set out to collect the valuable tears for Great Qin.

• Zhao Fu ordered Great Qin to gather and buy Flower Tears, then arranged for Bai Qi and Ge Nie to hunt demons while Asani and Daisy accompanied two Flower Fairies.
• Mei Mei guided Zhao Fu to an enormous flower demon about fifteen meters tall, whose Flower Tear glowed faintly orange.

Zhao Fu followed Mei Mei’s senses to hunt flower demons, collecting increasingly valuable flower tears and Flower Demon Seeds. After defeating a Tier 6 flower demon for a Night Flower Tear, he followed Mei Mei toward an even larger target.

• Mei Mei sensed another exceptionally large flower demon, and Zhao Fu followed her toward it.

Zhao Fu hunted Flower Demons through the night and defeated a powerful Dream Flower Demon, obtaining rare rewards for Great Qin. By dawn, he returned to tally the kingdom’s gains as Flower World neared its end.

• Zhao Fu fought and killed a three-colored Dream Flower Demon, then collected its Dream Flower Tear, Flower Demon Seed, and Flower Domain.

• Great Qin tallied 3.2 billion flower tears from its residents and soldiers and had purchased another fifty million.

Zhao Fu continued collecting Flower Tears after learning that he could not exchange them for the Human-Ghost Profession until Ghost World opened and that his points would convert at a 10:1 ratio. That night, he defeated the immensely powerful Seven-Colored Flower Demon, though what its four drops contained remained unknown.

• Zhao Fu learned that Flower Tear Points could not be spent until Ghost World opened and would convert into Ghost Points at a 10:1 ratio, so he continued collecting Flower Tears with Great Qin’s forces.
• Zhao Fu and Mei Mei hunted Flower Demons throughout the day and killed two more Dream Flower Demons, obtaining Dream Flower Tears, Flower Demon Seeds, and Flower Domains.
• Mei Mei spotted an enormous Flower Demon, and Zhao Fu found a seven-colored Flower Tear at the center of a glowing white rose in a valley.
• The Seven-Colored Flower Demon attacked Zhao Fu with spinning flowers and white laser beams, breaking his Emperor Domain and wounding his shoulder.
• Zhao Fu used the Great Qin Seal and other City Lord Seals to fight back, then killed the weakened Seven-Colored Flower Demon, which dropped four items.

• Zhao Fu identified the four rewards as a Mythic Flower Tear, a lord-grade Flower Demon Seed, a Flower Domain, and a World Flower Seed, whose mature flower could produce valuable tears and youth-preserving pollen.
• Zhao Fu tallied Great Qin’s gains at 13.5 billion flower tears and used ten Dream Flower Tears to activate the level-seven Flower Fairy’s Blessing.
• The Flower Fairy appeared in Great Qin City and released a pink wave of light that covered the territory with the blessing’s effects.
• The Flower Fairy embraced Zhao Fu and kissed his forehead, granting him the Flower Fairy’s Kiss and the Power of Flowers.

Zhao Fu kept the Flower Fairy in the mortal world with help from the little black bug, though she had lost her memories and abilities. When the Ghost World event began, he exchanged for the Human Ghost and Eye of All Ghosts professions and went to the City God Temple to prepare for the ghost-filled event.

• The little black bug used strands of silk to keep the Flower Fairy from disappearing, but a prompt warned that only a Level 8 Blessing could let her remain without penalties.
• Zhao Fu realized the Flower Fairy had no memories or ability to speak and asked Asani to take care of her.
• The Ghost World event began, transforming the world as countless ghosts appeared and Zhao Fu's Flower Tears points converted into ghost points.
• Zhao Fu spent 1.4 billion ghost points on the Human Ghost and Eye of All Ghosts profession steles, intending to earn enough more to obtain Ghost God Armorer.
• Zhao Fu went to the Level 10 City God Temple, where Beiming Danqiu and the temple's guards awaited him as he prepared to deal with the Ghost World.

Zhao Fu used a Blood Food Formation to lure the Ghost Festival’s ghosts toward Great Qin, then opened the Gate of Ghosts to capture them and collect their Ghost Treasure Bags. As ghost marshals arrived, Zhao Fu charged out with Bai Qi and Ge Nie to fight them.

• Zhao Fu checked the preparations with Hei Xiaojie and Bai Xiaoya, then ordered soldiers to pour a hundred thousand barrels of blood beneath the Great Wall.

• The Gate of Ghosts sucked in the approaching ghosts and dropped their Ghost Treasure Bags, while Zhao Fu’s ghost points rose rapidly.
• Several hundred ghost generals and several ghost marshals approached, so Zhao Fu charged at them with Bai Qi and Ge Nie.

Zhao Fu and Great Qin harvested ghost treasures while the Ghost Gate devoured successive waves of ghosts, and Zhao Fu obtained multiple Ghost Marshal Seals that could command yin soldiers. When a Ghost Marquis appeared in a later wave, Zhao Fu confronted it personally, and their battle began.

• Zhao Fu killed a Ghost Marshal and obtained a Ghost Marshal Seal capable of commanding one hundred thousand yin soldiers, along with a ghost treasure bag and a complete City God Stone.
• Bai Qi, Ge Nie, and the other fighters slew Ghost Marshals and Ghost Generals, while the Ghost Gate devoured the surrounding ghosts and collected their treasure bags.
• Another ghost wave arrived, and Zhao Fu’s forces killed two more Ghost Marshals, bringing Great Qin’s total to five Ghost Marshal Seals.
• A later wave brought four Ghost Marshals and a Ghost Marquis, so Zhao Fu charged the Ghost Marquis while the others fought the remaining ghosts.
• The Ghost Marquis summoned a gray spear and pierced Zhao Fu’s incoming water dragon, beginning their clash.

Zhao Fu defeated the Ghost Marquis with the Angel Sword and claimed the Ghost Marquis Seal and Marquis Yan's Tombstone. He planned to use the tombstone to create stronger yin soldiers for Great Qin as the Ghost Moon continued to darken Ghost World.

• Zhao Fu learned that the Ghost Marquis Seal could command one million yin soldiers and that the tombstone could gather yin qi and killing qi to strengthen them.
• Six hours passed, but the Ghost Moon still hung in the sky and Ghost World showed no sign of dawn.

Zhao Fu claimed Great Qin’s final Ghost Festival class and continued gathering points before a powerful Ghost King led an assault on Great Qin. As Zhao Fu fought the Ghost King, six colossal beings appeared and began destroying system main cities.

• Zhao Fu exchanged enough ghost points for the Ghost God Armorer and worried that points traded to him would not count toward the next day’s individual Divine Fish Festival.
• Zhao Fu spent more than a dozen hours killing ghost creatures, then saw a vast army approaching Great Qin with a Ghost King and four Ghost Marquises.

Zhao Fu discovered the Ghost King Tombstone and Netherworld Pearl before the Six Paths Demon Idols descended and turned on him. After they badly wounded him, the Golden Dragon offered a risky method, and Zhao Fu ordered his people to gather by the Ghost Gate formation.

• Zhao Fu examined the Ghost King Tombstone and found a vast inner world inside the Netherworld Pearl.

• The Golden Dragon proposed a method to fight the Six Paths Demon Idols, and Zhao Fu told everyone to gather by the Ghost Gate formation and await his orders.

Zhao Fu and Great Qin’s forces invoked the Ghost Gate and combined their seals and city power to suppress the Six Paths Demon Idols. The idols countered with the power of the Six Paths of Reincarnation, and the chapter ended as nine stars descended in response to the generals’ artifacts.

• Zhao Fu took Beiming Danqiu’s place in the Ghost Gate formation, offered his blood, and called upon the Ghost Gate to purge the yin creatures.
• More than one hundred million soldiers and over fourteen hundred city lords powered the formation, causing the Ghost Gate to descend and restrain the Six Paths Demon Idols.
• Zhao Fu ordered the soldiers, Black and White Impermanence, and the city lords to strengthen the Ghost Gate and surround the idols with their City Lord Seals.
• Zhao Fu called on Great Qin’s cities to send their power through the seals, but the Six Paths Demon Idols resisted and released the Six Paths’ ghostly energy across the continent.
• Zhao Fu summoned Bai Qi and the other generals, who raised their General’s Artifacts and brought nine enormous stars down upon the Six Paths Demon Idols.

Zhao Fu and Great Qin used the Ghost Gate Formation, the generals’ stars, and the Yinghuo Emperor Star to force the Six Paths Demon Idols to their knees. He began Golden Dragon’s dangerous plan to seal the idols inside his body, preparing the Netherworld Pearl and five ghost-related class steles before confronting the Six Paths Demon God.

• Nine general stars and the Yinghuo Emperor Star appeared over Great Qin as Zhao Fu and its forces poured their power into the Ghost Gate Formation.
• The combined pressure forced the Six Paths Demon Idols to kneel, though they roared and struggled to rise.
• Zhao Fu brought out the Netherworld Pearl and five class transfer steles to use Golden Dragon’s method to seal the idols inside his body.
• Zhao Fu bound the Netherworld Pearl to himself with hand seals and a drop of his origin blood.
• Golden Dragon extracted runes from the five steles and formed a ghost-power array on Zhao Fu’s back as the Netherworld Pearl fused into his chest.
• Zhao Fu turned toward the Six Paths Demon God and began the sealing.

Zhao Fu sealed the Six Paths Demon Idols inside the Netherworld Pearl and absorbed their combined power, gaining control of it at the cost of a dangerous backlash. With the Ghost Festival nearing its end, he planned to spend everyone else's ghost points before they were converted into Divine Fish Points.

• Zhao Fu and the assembled Great Qin forces suppressed the Six Paths Demon Idols while the Netherworld Pearl drew them in.
• Zhao Fu pressed the Netherworld Pearl into his body and used his pupils and sealing power to bind the Six Paths Demon Idols inside it.
• The idols' combined ghostly power transformed Zhao Fu, but he regained control after the magic formation on his back helped contain it.
• Zhao Fu reassured the concerned people around him and recognized that the idols' combined power was too dangerous to use except in a critical moment.
• Zhao Fu went to the exchange monument and decided to spend everyone else's ghost points before they were converted into Divine Fish Points.
