• Hao Liang messaged Broken Sword and claimed he had transmigrated into the Immortal Cultivation World, citing the Azure Mystery Sect and the war between the Ten Great Sects and the Demon Sect.

Ten days after leaving Chi Zongling behind to continue cultivating, Zhuang Hong returned to Traveler's New Paradise with more than forty Immortal Cultivators. He planned to cleanse the Travelers with his new Oath of Cleansing Art, then spotted his Savior God Statue and thought it might solve the technique's practical difficulty.

After the Flame Traveler organization formed, Zhuang Hong instructed Yin Zizhong to expand its ranks and began arranging personal training to help him survive the dangers of leadership.

• Zhuang Hong gave Yin Zizhong a Jade Slip containing the Growth Manual, then left the Travelers to establish Flame Traveler, reorganize the White Dragon Legion, and create Longevity Hall under Cong Jiansheng.

• Zhuang Hong arranged to teach Yin Zizhong practical skills for two hours each day, and Yin Zizhong eagerly agreed.

After six months, he ended their lessons and sent them to cultivate on their own, asking them to report back about interesting civilized worlds.

• Zhuang Hong taught Yin Zizhong Divine Concealment, Hundred-Handed Vajra, and the method for changing Source Power properties, but Yin Zizhong struggled to master the changes.

After consuming over a hundred thousand Void Spirits, his Source Power and Mental Strength showed signs of merging, bringing him close to becoming a True Spirit.

• A swarm of Little Spirits and Golden Fang Touch chains captured more than ten thousand Half-Beasts at their settlement in the Chaotic Stop Area, while the rest escaped.
• Zhuang Hong drained the captured Half-Beasts over more than twenty days, converting them into flesh, Source Power, and Space Essence.

• Zhuang Hong sensed that his Mental Strength was beginning to merge with his greatly expanded Source Power, potentially allowing him to advance into a True Spirit.
