Chapter Summaries

Ling Yi assigned Little Jin to guard the camp with drones, projectors, and consciousness steel needles, creating a vast hidden defense perimeter. Elsewhere, three surviving Frost Silver Dragons fled the Rat Clan’s slaughter and feared the rats were trying to unify Demon Land while the Demon Emperor remained absent.

Bing Yue and Bing Han hid in a cave to stabilize Bing Shuang’s damaged Spirit Pool, while her cultivation fell from Nascent Soul to Golden Core. At Demon-Suppressing City, an ancient warning bell signaled a beast tide, and the veteran prepared the city’s defenses as roars came from the Baleful Energy Mist.

After the Demon-Suppressing Bell warned the immortal sects of a crisis at Demon-Suppressing City, Shen Yue learned her Space Ability had sensed a presence of the same origin to the east, whom she suspected was Ling Yi. When Mu Hanyue was ordered to investigate the crisis, Shen Yue persuaded her to bring her along, and the two set out immediately.

A squad of rat demons tracked three Frost Silver Dragons to a hidden territory in the Five-Colored Forest, where a giant Five-Clawed Golden Dragon guarded the boundary. After it killed one intruder, the surviving rat demons retreated, and Bing Shuang emerged to report back to Bing Yue and Bing Han.

• Ling Yi admired the broadcast’s Five-Clawed Golden Dragon effect and considered making plans to leave the White Gold Wood camp.
• He launched a civilian spy satellite that could intercept signals within 100,000 li, but disconnected from it when the flood of sounds overwhelmed him.
• Little Jin routed the satellite’s audio signals to the computers and played a conversation about using the remaining Spirit-Severing Powder on the old monkey.
• The Dragon Radar Map traced the conversation to the ninth floating mountain in the Demon Land, where Ling Yi suspected the Rat Emperor was conspiring with a Human Clan traitor.
• Ling Yi ordered Little Jin to watch the ninth floating mountain and uncover their plan.

As ten thousand Demons gathered outside Demon-Suppressing City, the veteran realized the Blood Baleful Energy Grand Formation had been altered and the city lord was tied to the conspiracy. When the Demons broke through the gate, he activated the Demon-Suppressing Technique and confronted them.

• A veteran city guard explained to his grandson Xiao Liang that the altered formation could no longer protect Demon-Suppressing City, and he suspected the city lord was involved in the plot.

As they fought to stabilize the city, Shen Yue warned that the invasion threatened the entire region and proposed heading east instead of returning to the Heavenly Dao Sect.

• The veteran used the Demon-Suppressing Technique to lead the soldiers against the demons, but their defenses were overwhelmed and he was left alone at the gate.

Meanwhile, Ling Yi learned that Zheng Xiong planned to destroy the Blood Baleful Energy Grand Formation by killing at least five of the nine Demon Emperors, hoping to escape the city that had become his prison.

• Shen Yue had Mu Hanyue spread a warning about the lord of Demon-Suppressing City, then left the city with her to wait out the baleful fog.

• Zheng Xiong had allied with the Rat Emperor, who devoured seven Demon Emperors and broke the Blood Baleful Energy Grand Formation, while Zheng Xiong became an Undying Baleful Energy Demon to survive.
• Ling Yi learned the Rat Emperor was near the Peak of the Dao Integration Realm and decided to leave before the demon discovered him.

• Ling Yi recalled how he had exposed a human trafficker after Qin Shan mistakenly attacked him and later began visiting him for food and drinks.

As Qin Shan complained that the rival Good Fortune Martial Arts School was threatening her father’s school, she offered to teach Ling Yi martial arts, but he refused and claimed he cultivated immortality.

Shen Yue recognized the dragon in a cave painting as a Five-Clawed Golden Dragon connected to Ling Yi and admitted she had come to the Demon Land to find him. After sensing him again for three days, she discovered that her Space Ability had expanded and gained the power to mutate and control living things.

• Qin Shan left Ling Yi's courtyard after advancing from the Innate Realm to the Master Realm in an hour, and Ling Yi wondered why the ham sausage had affected her so strongly.

Meanwhile, Ling Yi searched his supplies for equipment to expand the search for Shen Yue, while Shen Yue continued collecting demons after leaving Demon Land.

• Qin Shan asked Ling Yi whether immortal cultivators could live forever, confessed that she wanted to stay with him for thousands of years, and decided to have her father propose marriage.

• Ling Yi began searching his supplies for equipment that could extend the surveillance range, while Shen Yue kept collecting demons after leaving Demon Land.

Shen Yue and Mu Hanyue found a village massacred by wolf Demons, and Shen Yue destroyed the pack after it killed the last surviving child. They then reached another devastated city, and Mu Hanyue prepared to ask where the Demon Clan’s main force was.

• A wolf Demon leader discussed how eating humans might help Demons gain the spiritual nature needed to use human cultivation techniques, then sent a subordinate to claim a little girl as prey.

Shen Yue and Mu Hanyue learned that the Human Clan was struggling against the Demon Clan’s forces at Demon-Suppressing City, so Shen Yue deployed mutated weapons and used her spatial ability to collect demons.

• Mu Hanyue learned from a Heavenly Dao Sect deacon that twenty million demons were fighting the immortal cultivators at Demon-Suppressing City while other demons rampaged through Human Clan territory.

• Mu Hanyue carried Shen Yue in pursuit of the demons into Demon Land, where Shen Yue felt a hitch while collecting something in one direction.

Shen Yue captured the demons fleeing west and continued searching for Ling Yi, while Ling Yi learned that demons had reached Blue Star Country and prepared to deal with them. He also considered whether he would return to Blue Star if he reunited with Shen Yue, and learned that both spy satellites would finish advancing the next day.

He chose to stop watching Qin Shan and moved with Little Jin to Heavenly Radiance Mountain, where the story left them arriving at the mountain’s flat summit basin.

• Ling Yi checked the upgraded spy satellites and found that they could enlarge, manipulate gravity, and unleash Lightning Tribulation, while Little Jin and other equipment had also evolved.
