Arc 1The Price of Wishes
Xu Yuan’s Wish-Granting Tree granted wishes while imposing hidden costs, drawing Xiao Wu, Yu Xiaogang, Tang San, and Wang Sheng into its effects. After reaching Level 19 and agreeing to reserve a future Wish Slot for a powerful expert, Xu Yuan was summoned to the Back Mountain.
- Xu Yuan granted Xiao Wu’s wish to conceal her Soul Beast aura, but the cost transferred her Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast Origin into his Wish-Granting Tree, which became a growing Soul Ring.
- Xu Yuan and Xiao Wu settled into Dorm Seven’s routines as Tang San left with Yu Xiaogang to hunt a Soul Ring, where Tang San suffered eye damage from a Mandala Snake and Yu Xiaogang was poisoned.
- Yu Xiaogang bought a Wish Slot and wished to reach Level 30, but the price transformed his Martial Soul Possession into a pig-like form and his Soul Skill sent Tang San flying.
- Tang San paid Xu Yuan to restore his eyes, and the wish consumed his Blue Silver Emperor Bloodline origin and Spiritual Origin, which Xu Yuan discovered by viewing Tang San’s memories.
- Tang Hao confronted Yu Xiaogang over his treatment of Tang San, learned about the cost of Yu Xiaogang’s wish, and left with Yu Xiaogang’s Wish-Granting Tree research.
- Wang Sheng wished for a Hundred-Year Soul Ring and returned from Soul Hunting with one, while Xu Yuan realized ordinary wishes could be granted using his own Soul Power.
- Xu Yuan agreed to reserve the next month’s Wish Slot for an unnamed powerful expert, cultivated to Level 19, and heard a hoarse voice summon him to the Back Mountain.
