The Fairness Convoy encountered a larger convoy led by a second-tier transcendent whose sense of smell detected them and who seemed to grow stronger when women beat him. After his convoy’s bus blocked the road, he approached Chen Fan’s group and invited the women to join the Gentleman Convoy.

• Chen Fan entered the village supermarket, where a Ripper Monster sprayed tainted blood and killed an old woman before Chen Fan cut it down with the Spirit Refining Sword.

• The convoy members introduced their supernatural abilities, and Yang Xiaomei began the newcomers’ introductions by revealing her [Cat Mage] power.

Yang Xiaomei, Shen Li, and Ma Wuyuan explained their extraordinary abilities while the convoy’s extraordinary people socialized and sparred. As the survivors watched from a distance and a monk gathered listeners, Chen Fan prepared to try on the white robe made for him.

• Yang Xiaomei described her [Cat Mage] ability, while Shen Li and Ma Wuyuan argued over whether [Boxer] or [Lightning Whip] was stronger.
• Shen Li explained that their former captain’s [Olfactory M Receptor] let him smell unusual scents and grow stronger when attacked, and Yang Xiaomei admitted the group had worked with him despite his repulsive behavior.

• Li Yuanyuan challenged Shen Li and Ma Wuyuan to spar and knocked both of them down with a single palm strike each.
• Zhao Xing warned Zhao Xin to ignore the monk speaking to survivors and focus on whoever could keep them alive.
• Chen Fan returned to his RV and found the long white robe finished, eager to put it on.

• Chen Fan crafted the Dust-Avoiding Dharma Robe and went to sleep after arranging the night watch.
• Wang Bing divined danger before dawn, so Chen Fan and Nie Shufeng led the convoy onward even though Qian Lei sensed no threat.
• The convoy traveled nonstop, and most of its more than six hundred survivors fell behind as exhaustion and fuel shortages mounted.
• Chen Fan urged Nie Shufeng to make the decision as captain, and Nie Shufeng ordered the convoy to stop and rest after twenty-six hours.
• Wang Bing snapped out of her daze and saw a bald man with narrowed eyes staring through her vehicle window.

Wang Bing was captured in a miniature world ruled by the holy monk, but black-robed rebels rescued her from execution before a giant finger crushed their leader. Back in the convoy, Chen Fan discovered that A Zheng was a supernatural being and asked him about his ability.

• Wang Bing woke bound to a stake in a miniature settlement and realized Huishi had attacked her, leaving her unable to warn the captain and the others.
• A scar-faced fanatic set Wang Bing’s pyre alight, but black-robed people stormed the crowd, killed him, and rescued her.
• Food fell from the sky as a giant finger descended, crushing the rebels’ leader after he threw Wang Bing to a fleeing companion and urged them to save her.
• Wang Bing watched the leader die while being carried away, and a trace of crimson appeared in her pupils.
• Chen Fan asked a long-limbed young survivor whether he was a supernatural being, and A Zheng admitted it and gave his name.

A Zheng explained that his [Triathlon] ability gave him extreme endurance but made him crave sweets, while Nie Shufeng’s group confronted Huishi over Wang Bing’s disappearance. Huishi admitted taking Wang Bing and revealed his power by attacking the group, leaving Chen Fan and the others preparing to fight a third-tier extraordinary ability user.

• A Zheng told Chen Fan that [Triathlon] let him endure strenuous activity on almost no food or water, though its cost was an extreme craving for sweets.
• Nie Shufeng gathered the survivors and confronted Huishi, revealing that he had seen Huishi appear beside Wang Bing’s vehicle before she disappeared.
• Zheng Alin threatened Huishi with the Crimson Flame Sword, and Huishi said he had sent Wang Bing to the Western Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss.
• Huishi created a massive boulder to escape the encirclement and enlarged his prayer beads into enormous spheres that crashed down on Chen Fan and the others.
• Nie Shufeng identified Huishi as a third-tier extraordinary ability user as Chen Fan, Li Yuanyuan, Zheng Alin, and Wu Zhiyou prepared to fight him, while Yang Xiaomei, Shen Li, and Ma Wuyuan kept their distance.

Chen Fan and his allies attacked Huishi with swords, jiangshi, yin souls, and lightning, but Huishi survived a sword through the head by shrinking his vital organs. As Huishi prepared to retaliate, Wang Bing continued staining his image inside a crystal ball with her blood.

• Chen Fan sent his Spirit Refining Sword, yin souls, and Iron-Armored Jiangshi against Huishi while Li Yuanyuan attacked with her Eighteen Dragon-Subduing Palms.

• Wang Bing continued applying her supernatural power to Huishi's image in a crystal ball, gradually staining it with her blood.

Huishi used his thirty-three prayer beads to keep Chen Fan and the others under pressure until Chen Fan realized that defending himself made Huishi’s control over the beads falter. The group wounded Huishi, and Chen Fan finished him with the newly refined mid-grade Annihilation Death Nail, which destroyed his body and soul.

• Huishi sent thirty-three prayer beads after Chen Fan and the others, forcing them to defend themselves while he focused ten beads on Chen Fan.

• Chen Fan refined a rusty nail into the mid-grade Annihilation Death Nail and launched it at Huishi.
• The nail pinned Huishi to the ground, and its death qi destroyed his flesh and soul until he crumbled into dust.

After Huishi’s death, the survivors returned from the miniature world in his bowl, and the convoy rested while its members recovered and distributed supplies. Chen Fan inspected his new Annihilation Death Nail, then Yang Xiaomei came to trade gasoline for meat to feed Little Red.

• Huishi’s bowl spilled the survivors and miniature-world debris into the real world, and Chen Fan silenced the survivors who cursed him by threatening them with the Ten Thousand Souls Banner.
• Zheng Alin and Nie Shufeng helped the exhausted Wang Bing, who apologized for her mistaken divination and revealed that she had reached the second tier.
• Nie Shufeng’s group distributed some food and gasoline to survivors as compensation, while Chen Fan received only a verbal apology.
• Chen Fan rested in his RV and examined the Annihilation Death Nail, learning that it caused targets, including living beings and inanimate objects, to undergo complete necrosis.
• Yang Xiaomei asked Chen Fan to trade her gasoline for packaged meat because Little Red preferred meat.

Chen Fan traded meat for Yang Xiaomei’s gasoline, then offered Zheng Alin purified water that eased the injuries caused by her supernatural powers. He discovered that Nie Shufeng was playing with stones, leaving the group resting in an odd assortment of ways.

• Chen Fan traded twenty packs of meat to Yang Xiaomei for five liters of gasoline, and she mixed the food for Little Red.

Chen Fan and Nie Shufeng traded supplies and information with Han Tai’s Red Yellow Green Convoy, then warned Han Tai that his group’s plan to seek out monsters for rapid growth was dangerous. After returning to his convoy, Han Tai proposed suspending the plan and joining the Dawn Alliance, but Yang Fan argued against him and suggested attacking the alliance instead.

• Han Tai’s convoy offered to trade, and Chen Fan and Nie Shufeng exchanged supplies for fuel and monster materials while the two groups shared information.
• Han Tai described his convoy’s plan to provoke monsters and use life-or-death battles to strengthen their superhuman abilities.

• Yang Fan opposed Han Tai, insisting that hunting monsters would make the convoy stronger and suggesting that they ambush the Dawn Alliance and take its supplies.

• The Artifact Refining Furnace produced the low-grade magic artifact Yin-Yang Twin Mirrors, leaving Chen Fan with 110 points of Origin Material.

Chen Fan tested the Yin-Yang Twin Mirrors and discovered their strengthened abilities, including protection, dream manipulation, and warnings of danger. He then approved Han Tai’s convoy joining the Dawn Alliance after learning it had split over a plan to turn the tables.

• Chen Fan tested the Yin-Yang Twin Mirrors, which could pierce illusions, unleash yang attacks, form a stronger Nightmare Battle Cloud, and devour mental attacks.
• Chen Fan learned that the mirrors’ Breath of Nightmares could manipulate dreams and provide clues about impending danger, then realized he needed more Origin Material to improve his artifacts.
• Chen Fan saw the red-yellow-green convoy split into two groups, with Yellow Hair, Red Hair, and Green Hair leading the larger group while the katana man and the man with sunglasses on his head led the smaller one.

The Dawn Alliance’s three convoys set out with their new members and abilities, but Nie Shufeng and Wang Bing discovered dangers closing in from every direction. The chapter ended with the alliance considering whether to enter a motionless patch of Dead Fog to escape the approaching threats.

• The Red Yellow Green Convoy joined the Dawn Alliance, and its transcendents Han Tai, You Xiaoya, and Qin Renliang introduced their abilities.
• Nie Shufeng arranged the convoy’s formation, placing Han Tai’s sedan at the front to scout with his Traffic Light ability.

• Wang Bing divined that the road to the right led to a town with a rule-based anomaly, while the route to the left led to Dead Fog.
• Nie Shufeng reported that the Living Fog was approaching and suggested the convoy might have to enter the nearby Dead Fog.

Chen Fan led the convoys toward the Dead Fog after Wang Bing’s divination suggested they would survive, despite the dangers on every route. The group reached the fog, where Han Tai’s ability warned against every direction, and Chen Fan tried to scout through it with the Yang Mirror but could see only white.

• Wang Bing divined that entering the Dead Fog would bring scares but leave them unharmed, and Chen Fan chose to trust her while the convoys agreed to go in.
• Qian Lei sensed danger from the Dead Fog, but Chen Fan explained that the other routes could become dangerous before Qian Lei detected them.
• Nie Shufeng warned the survivors that the convoy was entering the Dead Fog and let them decide whether to follow; around a hundred people stopped, while Zhao Xing decided to protect Zhao Xin by staying with the group.
• Han Tai stopped at the fog’s edge, where his Traffic Light showed red in every direction, and let Nie Shufeng take the lead.
• Chen Fan used the Yang Mirror to try to see into the Dead Fog, but its reflection showed only white.

Chen Fan led the convoy into the mist after the Yang Mirror showed a clear highway beyond it. As the travelers struggled with the eerie fog, Zhao Xing and Chen Fan spotted an enormous shape outside their vehicles.

• Chen Fan used the Yang Mirror to glimpse a clear highway and concluded that the mist covered only a small area.

• Chen Fan heard a broken walkie-talkie warning, looked out the RV window, and saw an enormous thing.

Chen Fan’s convoy encountered a colossal tentacled monster in the fog, and he ordered the survivors to stay quiet and keep moving. The alliance eventually emerged safely, though it remained unclear whether their silence had helped.

• Chen Fan spotted the motionless giant monster and relayed Nie Shufeng’s order for the convoy to stay quiet and move faster.
• A bearded man confronted He Shangwu about Xiao Liu, but fled back toward the vehicles after seeing the monster; He Shangwu also saw it and hurried onward.
• A Zheng noticed that Xu Lü Lü had disappeared, then saw the monster and rushed forward in fear.
• Zhao Xing saw the monster’s face through his consciousness, suffered a violent mental attack, and urged Zhao Xin to keep driving despite his injuries.
• Yan Kuan told Chen Fan that survivors had vanished and some had panicked, but the convoy eventually fell silent and continued onward.
• Nie Shufeng’s, Han Tai’s, and Chen Fan’s vehicles emerged from the fog first, and the rest of the alliance followed.

After Zhao Xing collapsed in the mist, Chen Fan suspected he was awakening extraordinary powers and gave him purified water, which eased his symptoms. The convoy settled at a grove of dead trees, and as Chen Fan waited for the friendly convoy Wang Bing had predicted, a Wuling van suddenly blazed with white light.

• Chen Fan gave Zhao Xing purified water, which eased his pain and stopped his twitching, then returned to his RV.
• Wang Bing divined a safe campsite in a grove of dead trees and predicted that a friendly convoy would arrive that night.
• As Chen Fan waited at the campsite, a Wuling van suddenly poured out dazzling white light and illuminated the camp.

Zhao Xing awakened the [Flash Spear] ability and joined Chen Fan’s Mortal Convoy, while Chen Fan learned that a convoy had arrived at night. The chapter ended as five heavy trucks approached the woodland.
