• Qing Chen used the Mountain-Calming Shield to block the first thunderbolts, then burned the essence blood in his first brahma aperture to reinforce it.
• Qing Chen sent the Purple Spider Banner and its spider phantom against the seventh thunderbolt, which badly damaged the banner.
• Qing Chen burned essence blood from his second brahma aperture and endured the eighth thunderbolt, which destroyed the Purple Spider Banner, damaged the Mountain-Calming Shield, and charred his arms.

• Qing Chen's Primal Magnetism Divine Light failed to stop the humanoid thunderbolt, so he summoned the White Bone Demon Mara Banners to form the Immortal-Locking Gourd's protective force field.
• The lightning hammer shattered the gourd phantom and exhausted the demon banners, forcing Qing Chen to spend five thousand high-grade spirit stones to summon the Thunderclap Arhat with the Nine-Luminaries Glazed Vidyaraja Pagoda.

After surviving the Three Lives Killing Tribulation, he received a thread of fortune qi and had to choose whether to use it to improve his spiritual root or give it to the Nine-Luminaries Glazed Vidyaraja Pagoda.

• Qing Chen formed his Nascent Soul, expanded his divine sense across the Hidden Dragon Mountain Range, and deepened his understanding of the Blood Path and Magnetic Origin Rules.

Qing Chen diverted the creation energy from improving his spiritual root to the Nine-Luminaries Glazed Vidyaraja Pagoda and used the authority it revealed to witness a battle in Immortal-Burying Valley. He saw a wounded Nine-Headed Demon Venerable flee into ancient palace ruins with a mysterious treasure, which Qing Chen believed could help him attain the Bodhi Spirit Body Second Layer.

• Qing Chen told the cultivators that military affairs and Old Devil Wu Gui delayed his planned Dharma lecture.
• Qing Chen asked the witnesses to offer congratulatory gifts and appointed Chen Yan and Manager Qian Dafu to register them.

After ascending to Nascent Soul, Qing Chen invented a Gouwu Sea custom to demand congratulatory gifts from the cultivators gathered in the Hidden Dragon Mountain Range.

• Qing Chen ordered three volleys at the poison miasma node while Hundred Poisons True Lord commanded his cannons to fire on the treasure ships.

Qing Chen ordered his fleet’s troops to strike back, leaving both sides poised for a costly close-quarters battle.

• Hundred Poisons True Lord assessed the damage and ordered the Gu Armor Army to advance, the Third-Tier Poison-Fire Ballistae to prepare, and the Myriad Serpent Grand Formation to press the fleet’s left flank.

• Hundred Poisons True Lord judged that continued attrition would deplete his elite troops and ordered the Blood Gu Army to prepare the Ten Thousand Poisons Immortal-Burning Formation.
• Centipede-Insect Daoist warned that the formation was incomplete, but Hundred Poisons True Lord ordered him to activate it anyway.

Hundred Poisons True Lord unleashed the forty thousand Blood Gu Army and its Myriad Poisons Blood Baleful Intent Formation against Qing Chen’s exhausted Miao-Conquest Army. Qing Chen reorganized his forces and, with True Lord Tie Ming, checked the formation’s first attacks, but the armies then collided in a brutal battle that left Miao-Conquest casualties mounting rapidly.
