• Huang Yun remembered that Tang Hao had buried Ah Yin’s 100,000-Year Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone beside the Blue Silver Emperor Seedling behind Sacred Soul Village.

• Huang Yun left the seedling untouched and flew to a cliff several hundred miles away from Sacred Soul Village.
• Huang Yun opened the box again and sensed the spirit bone’s powerful life and natural energy.

Huang Yun absorbed the Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Soul Bone, reaching level fifty-five, then traveled to Gengjin City to commission the divine smith Lou Gao. He showed Lou Gao a 120,000-year Dragon Bone and a Dragon Crystal, and began explaining the two things he wanted made.

After Lou Gao confirmed that Huang Yun had provided him with a lightning-attributed Dragon Crystal for a commission, Dai Weisi ordered his men to keep watching Huang Yun without provoking him.

• A-Fu reported that the young masked Soul Master stayed at Yue Lai Inn and moved around Gengjin City alone, while Old Xu suggested he might be connected to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.
• A-Fu revealed that Huang Yun had visited Lou Gao’s forge several times, and Dai Weisi decided to invite Lou Gao to a banquet rather than investigate his forge by force.

• Lou Gao advised Dai Weisi not to offend Huang Yun, and Dai Weisi ordered Old Xu to continue watching him without alerting him.
