Fomenter

Story context

This chapter is a masterclass in Xianxia planning and surgical escalation. Ji Ning, Uncle White, Mu Northson, and Qingqing finalize their strategy to break into the Shaoyin clan’s heavily fortified mountain lair. The core tactical insight? You can’t destroy a million-li formation, but you can assassinate its human operators one by one. The gang sets their sights on the first target: Fomenter Fulong, a slimy and ancient Loose Immortal who’s lived a million years through sheer, disgusting persistence. Ji Ning, using his Seventy-Two Transformations to impersonate Fulong’s own disciple, pulls off a surgical strike that is cold, efficient, and absolutely devastating. The assassination itself is a blur of golden Starseizing Hands and pulverized bodies, and the aftermath is a Ten-Thousand-Li River turning a mountain range into a demolition site. It’s a perfect blend of tactical genius and raw, cathartic violence.

Why it matters

Fellow Daoists, get ready for a chapter that proves brains are just as good as brawn! This is a classic ‘planning episode’ executed to perfection.
