Above the ten-mile golden boulevard of the Gu Family Trans-Continental Night Market, the night sky turned as bright as noon!
Five hundred million streams of warm, golden-white Continental Gratitude & Household Merit Qi rose from across the Western Demon Continent. From every White-Tiger cave, Sky-Fox glen, Iron-Tusk forge, Black-Wind steppe, Silver-Horn peak, and Red-Sand oasis, the golden light converged into a thousand-mile-wide nebula above Frost-Wind Crossroads!
Standing at the center of the Night Market plaza with his five children and two hundred thousand cheering Tiger and Fox warriors around him, Gu Changsheng smiled. Inside his dantian, the [Flaw-Free Hearth-Fire & Frost-Home Golden Core] hummed like a rising sun ready to expand into a higher orbit.

RUMBLE—HIIIIIIISSSSS!!
Two hundred miles west, beneath the dark, jagged peaks of Crimson-Bone Citadel, the earth cracked open!
For three thousand years, the Blood-Sea Cult had buried millions of animal and demon carcasses beneath the citadel’s foundations to breed a continent-spanning underground sewer of Ancient Three-Thousand-Year Corpse-Miasma.
Sensing that Gu Changsheng’s pure Hearth-Fire Golden Core was about to break through to Rank 6 Mid and purify the continent’s spirit veins, the residual automated arrays beneath Crimson-Bone Citadel went berserk!
