Chapter Summaries

After Shi Hao received a huge supply of beast milk from Li Xiang and Ying Zheng, Gu Santong joined the Myriad Worlds Chat Group, though Shi Hao dismissed him as too weak to be useful. While drinking milk with his Northern Darkness Divine Art, Shi Hao’s system showed that Buddha’s Palm could be upgraded to Great Perfection.

• Li Xiang sent Shi Hao a hundred thousand jin of beast milk, while Ying Zheng sent him another large supply before leaving the chat group.
• Gu Santong joined the Myriad Worlds Chat Group and initially mistook it for a hallucination; Li Xiang explained how to read the chat history.

• After midnight, Shi Hao used a large straw and the Northern Darkness Divine Art to drain a crate of milk.
• Shi Hao checked his Beast Milk System and saw that Buddha’s Palm was ready to be upgraded to Great Perfection.

Shi Hao raised Buddha's Palm to Great Perfection, becoming a Martial Dao Human Immortal with overwhelming strength. Confident he could defeat the Old Demon of Black Mountain, he went to Lanruo Temple to confront its evil, where he found a ruin of dried corpses and struck the temple with his palm.

• Shi Hao spent 1,024 skill points to raise Buddha's Palm to Great Perfection and reached the Martial Dao Human Immortal Realm.

Shi Hao destroyed Lanruo Temple and searched for the Millennium Tree Demon, but his wild attacks instead drew out a seven-hundred-year-old tree demon. After hearing about the Blood Demon Patriarch, Shi Hao realized he had arrived more than three hundred years before the events of A Chinese Ghost Story.

• Shi Hao wondered whether the Emei Sect existed, then realized the tree demon's age placed him more than three hundred years before A Chinese Ghost Story.

Shi Hao killed the seven-hundred-year-old tree demon and learned that immortals and an Upper Realm still existed in the current world. After drinking beast milk to gain another skill point, he received an offer from Jiu Jianxian to learn Mount Shu Sword Control Technique.

Group Leader Great Immortal Li tried to stop the chat group from teaching Shi Hao techniques, but Shi Hao pretended the earlier gifts were useful so others would keep sharing them. Jiu Jianxian offered Shi Hao the Mount Shu Sword Control Technique, while Xiongba, Zhang Sanfeng, and Wuyazi asked to learn cultivation methods themselves.

• Zhang Sanfeng and Wuyazi asked Jiu Jianxian to share methods for cultivating immortality.

• Shi Hao went offline to drink beast milk, and Great Immortal Li lamented that Shi Hao had gained the inheritance for free while he had spent days bluffing the group.

• Shi Hao studied Jiu Jianxian's Mount Shu True Transmission Sword Control Technique but judged the Mount Shu immortals too weak to merit spending skill points on it.

• Shi Hao noticed that no new members had joined the chat group in three days and guessed that its invitations were random.
