Arc 34The Treasury and Incense Valley
Luo Yunji recovered his emotions, learned more about the Deity’s plans for the Great Calamity, and turned the Heavenly Emperor’s Treasury into a cultivation ground. After the group pursued the Fish Monsters and investigated Incense Valley, Zheng Dali descended into a mysterious well and failed to return.
- Luo Yunji entered the Treasury of the Heavenly Emperor, saw the Heavenly Book’s Third Scroll, and learned from the Deity about the Heavenly Dao, the Great Calamity, and his own restored emotions.
- Luo Yunji’s sudden emotional outbursts alarmed the Big Bamboo Peak disciples, while He Dazhi concealed the treasury entrance and Tian Buyi recalled Luo Yunji’s childhood mischief to Duan Ming.
- The Ghost King found Bi Yao in the Inner Swamp, then realized Luo Yunji’s soul had become whole as the young cultivator cried and laughed uncontrollably.
- Luo Yunji froze the treasury to keep Long Zi from taking Little Dragon, then negotiated with Yuyangzi to secure medicine and a future route into the Nether Abyss.
- Luo Yunji turned the treasury into a cultivation ground, but he and Zhang Xiaofan later left to pursue Fish Monsters who had stolen his Bamboo Bag, trapping Xiao Yicai and the other cultivators inside.
- Zhang Xiaofan and Luo Yunji helped free the starving captives, then set out south with Zheng Dali, Jin Ping'er, and Wild Dog Daoist to investigate the Fish Monsters and Incense Valley.
- The group infiltrated Incense Valley and entered the Profound Fire restricted area, where they found a blazing hall carved with eight images of horned, four-armed evil gods.
- Zheng Dali jumped into a well seeking Fire Crystals, and when he did not return, Luo Yunji stopped Zhang Xiaofan from following and accidentally helped ice over the well’s mouth.
