Summary

The chapter details the aftermath of Bai Lao's sacrifice, where he self-destructs his life-bound treasure, the black and white chessboard, to break the protective formation of Golden Peak Mountain. This act weakens him significantly, prompting the assembled forces to honor his memory. As they surge towards the now vulnerable Golden Peak Mountain, they encounter little resistance until they reach the fifth floor, which has been altered to test their comprehension through nine challenging nodes. The environment is shrouded in mist, complicating navigation and revealing hidden hunters that begin to pick off members of the elite forces. Amidst the chaos, Spike seizes an opportunity to attack one of the nodes, leading to a confrontation with a powerful Kunpeng demon. The battle showcases Spike's abilities as he matches the demon's speed and disrupts the enemy's plans, but the situation remains precarious as more enemies may join the fray.
