• Wang An described the second stage, in which the great medicine was raised through the Jade Pillow Gate and moved between the dantians; the chapter ended as he introduced the third stage of nurturing the sacred embryo.

Wang An continued developing his cultivation and chose Lesser Yang Qi for his next refinement, while deciding to move somewhere quieter. He asked Coach Chen to upgrade his compound bow, but learned that current technology could not produce one with the draw weight he wanted.

• Wang An told Manager Hu to equip and register four archery coaches as outside members of the exploration team and apply for their restricted-zone permits.

Meanwhile, Wang An investigated how feng shui auras formed and began testing how Class Change Stones affected the qi around his villa.

• Wang Quan showed the four archers photographs of a huge Boar King and other dangerous creatures, warned them how to survive encounters, and explained the expedition’s meteorite-collection arrangements.
• Hu Jun and Li Guohua reconsidered joining after seeing the dangers, but stayed when they saw Chen Zhenhua and Mo Yuemei remained eager to go.
• Wang An found no one who could teach him how to arrange a feng shui aura, so he decided to study existing examples and develop a theory himself.
• After moving into a suburban villa on the ninth, Wang An used Observe the Qi of All Things to study the qi around the house and mountain behind it.
• Wang An placed two Class Change Stones less than 100 meters apart and observed them alter the speed of nearby water qi and clear qi, then began testing different numbers and arrangements of stones.

Wang An studied how qi fields affected feng shui and forest ecology, then shifted his focus to improving his cultivation and preparing for possible conflicts. He planned to pursue the Feng Shui Master and Mechanic classes and sought convenient high-energy food to support his training.

• Wang An concluded that Class Change Stones arranged in different patterns could alter qi circulation, and he identified how condensed qi fields could affect local environments and cause hazards.
• Wang An observed that accelerating water qi and clear qi changed plant growth and forest activity, but he still needed long-term study of a true feng shui field.
• Wang An reviewed his attributes and skills, decided that ordinary methods would soon be insufficient for further physical growth, and resolved to pursue the Feng Shui Master class.
• Wang An arranged for simple tools and materials so he could try taking the Mechanic class and crafting a compound crossbow for protection on Mount Huaiyu.
• Wang An found that cultivation was making ordinary meals inadequate, so he chose a high-energy nutritional paste recipe and planned to order huangjing to test as a cultivation aid.

Wang An's Avatar completed and refined a powerful compound crossbow, allowing Wang An to take up the [Mechanic] class. The exploration team reached Mount Huaiyu, checked in at the Huang Village supply camp, and began gathering information before setting out into the mountains.

• Wang An's Avatar built and tested a compound crossbow, then used Enhanced Perception to improve its accuracy after Wang An took up the [Mechanic] class.

• The team found a meteorite landing site, but the meteorite had already been used.
• More than a dozen monkeys gathered in the trees, and their white-furred leader threw a stone at the team.

The Avatar led the exploration team in retreating from an attacking monkey troop, then fought back with the coaches and drove the monkeys away. He went to investigate their den with Mo Yuemei, who explained that she had joined the expedition to experience archery in the wilderness after years of training and competition.

• The Avatar pulled Mo Yuemei out of the path of a rock and ordered the team to retreat while Wang An shot a monkey with his compound bow.
• The Avatar shot at the monkey king, who used a guard as a shield and fled; the four archery coaches then fired at the retreating troop, and Chen Zhenhua hit a monkey.

The Avatar and Mo Yuemei found a monkey troop preparing weapons in a sinkhole cave, where the Avatar killed the mutated monkey king with a single arrow and collected Class Change Stones. He also discovered and absorbed azure yang qi, then returned to camp with Mo Yuemei, whose admiration for his archery strengthened her resolve to learn from him.

• Mo Yuemei told the Avatar she had grown tired of a life spent coaching archery and thanked him for saving her.

• Mo Yuemei watched the Avatar's archery with renewed determination, and back at camp she told Hu Jun, Li Guohua, Chen Zhenhua, and Liu Tingquan what had happened.

The exploration team continued through Mount Huaiyu, recording the sinkhole and gathering meteorites and Class Change Stones while dealing with lost food and nighttime wildlife. On the fourth day, they encountered a massive armored wild boar, and the Avatar began planning how to face it.

• The Avatar told Liu Tingquan to photograph the sinkhole in detail, and the team resumed its journey after recording the site.
• The team watched a giant serpent eagle capture a venomous snake, then camped on the nearby grassland for the night.
• Liu Tingquan discovered that a rodent had eaten two meals' worth of his food, and the Avatar gave him a Five Fulfillments Nourishing Pill while offering one to Chen Yanshan for 1,000.
• The team found a meteorite crater and collected its meteorite, then found an unused Class Change Stone near Four Corners Flat without letting anyone use it.
• After hearing wild boars nearby, the Avatar warned the team to stay cautious, but the group encountered a lone boar weighing over 1,000 jin the next morning.
• The Avatar gathered the four archery coaches to discuss a plan for dealing with the armored boar.
