Recaps

Gao Jian secretly saved the Artemis crew from a sabotaged lunar mission and brought their capsule safely back to Earth amid a global geomagnetic disaster. After reaching the Chinese consulate, he faced an FBI search and a botched attempt to conceal his identity, then agreed to relocate with Elon Musk.

• Gao Jian sneaked aboard the SLS, warned NASA that its fuel tanks were not full, and repaired defects as the rocket launched despite his efforts to hide.
• Gao Jian cut away a stuck booster and later discovered that the spacecraft was trapped in a looping trajectory by a vast magnetic field rather than heading toward the Moon.
• As a super-Carrington geomagnetic storm crippled the spacecraft and threatened the crew, Gao Jian shielded the astronauts with a golden formation, then entered Orion after the storm passed.
• Gao Jian told Jim, Robert, Ron, and Allen that the spacecraft was beyond repair and pushed their capsule toward Earth, while satellite failures and political tensions spread across the planet.
• Gao Jian evaded two missiles during reentry, used a waterspout to slow the capsule, and helped the four astronauts splash down safely in the Gulf of Mexico.
• After the astronauts were recovered, Gao Jian reached Texas and called Counselor Wang, then met Don Quixote before Old Chen drove him toward the consulate.
• Gao Jian and Old Chen escaped two cars tailing them, and Gao Jian learned that the FBI considered him a prime suspect while Elon Musk waited at the consulate.
• Gao Jian tried to give Elon a Dustless Memory Pill, but Counselor Wang drank the tea instead and began forgetting Gao Jian, prompting consulate officials to order a search and relocation.

Gao Jian returned to China, uncovered the original Gao Jian’s secret research, and learned that mind-state cultivators were resisting monsters that could replace people. As he investigated lunar anomalies and a mysterious force that destroyed a missile, Wan Hu contacted him with an offer to meet in a virtual world.

• Gao Jian escaped FBI pursuit with Elon Musk’s help, discovered that an impostor had replaced Colonel Robert, and returned to China after learning the monsters had infiltrated powerful institutions.
• After officials questioned him and the Chang'e Program was suspended, Gao Jian returned home, repaired his shield, replenished a spirit stone, and reunited with his grandfather.
• Gao Jian found the original Gao Jian’s diary and hidden research, then used blood to reveal a Mind-State Cultivation Method in the notebook.
• Gao Jian practiced the method and reached the falsehood recognition realm, where he saw auras and recognized that his grandfather had cultivated the same path.
• Gao Jian concluded that mind-state cultivators guarded China against the infiltrating monsters, while he alone practiced orthodox immortal cultivation and sought a way to investigate the Moon.
• A Russian missile launched toward the Moon as CNSA leaders explained the gravity and radiation anomalies that had halted China’s lunar program, and Gao Jian saw a beam from the Moon destroy the missile’s warhead.
• Gao Jian took exhausted delivery worker Song Yaozu in, helped him rest, and learned that CNSA leaders worried about the two becoming close.
• Wan Hu offered Gao Jian money to meet, but his delivery rider collided with Song Yaozu, and Gao Jian healed her before recognizing her helmet as a virtual brain-computer device.
