Chapter Summaries

As the Shenzhou Kingdom faced invasion, Yang Di departed for the front while Jiang Hao’s team continued climbing Wuji Peak. Wei Zihan plotted to trigger an avalanche in the Dense Fog Zone, and the chapter ended with Jiang Hao’s team sharing breakfast near the dangerous pass.

• Jiang Hao struggled to light a fire in the freezing alpine air, then served roasted meat to his six teammates.

Jiang Hao’s team was caught in a blizzard and an avalanche after a Snow and Ice Banshee appeared on Wuji Peak, leaving Jiang Hao missing. He later woke in an ice cave and found a horrifying white figure rummaging through his backpack.

• Jiang Hao led the team through dense fog on Wuji Peak, but a blizzard lifted Wen Ruxue, Gongsun Qianxun, and the others into the air before Chen Xiaolin anchored himself and rescued them.
• After the team heard a Snow and Ice Banshee’s cry, an avalanche swept them away, and Jiang Hao was dragged unconscious through the snow by an unknown person.

• Jiang Hao woke in an enormous ice cave and saw a white figure rummaging through his backpack; when he thanked it, the figure turned and stared at him with eyeless eyes.

Jiang Hao was forced by the Snow and Ice Banshee to retrieve the Lava Heart from the Fire Demon Cavern, where a giant Red Mosquito guarded it. As the Banshee’s protective hair began to disappear, Jiang Hao found a way to block the Lava Heart’s light and threw his underwear toward it.

• The Snow and Ice Banshee questioned Jiang Hao about his shirt, then demanded he retrieve the Lava Heart from the Fire Demon Cavern in exchange for three requests.

• Jiang Hao realized a snowflake could block the Lava Heart’s light, then threw his underwear toward the stone to cover it.

Jiang Hao escaped the giant mosquito with the Lava Heart, but it caught up with him in the passage and badly wounded him. The Snow and Ice Banshee killed the mosquito and kept its distance from the Lava Heart when Jiang Hao offered it.

• Jiang Hao covered the Lava Heart with his oversized underpants and fled on Big Hen while the giant mosquito pursued him.

• Jiang Hao used Blood Enhancement to speed up Big Hen, but the giant mosquito caught him in the passage, pierced his shoulder, and burned his back with its legs.
• Big Hen's cries brought the Snow and Ice Banshee, which crushed the giant mosquito and left behind an uncommon beast crystal.
• Jiang Hao offered the Snow and Ice Banshee the Lava Heart, but it retreated and warned him not to come closer.
