In this chapter, we find out that the thunder polearm isn't nearly as effective as the divine thunder pickax against Luotianxing. It's just that the little monster wasn't as good at using it as Luo, and that's why he's not able to defeat him. We learn that Luo's father will kill him if he tries to ask him to spare his life, but that he'll just ask his father to back him up if he gives him any trouble in the near future. This is the first time we've heard of the "Soul Gathering Gem" , which is basically a magical stone that can heal a person's soul. We're also told that this stone is just 9,000 of the monster's innate energy stones, so there's nothing you need to worry about. The only problem is that the "soul gathering gem" is only 9,000, so it'll take a long time for Luo to heal. He'll need to wait until his father wakes up, and then he can ask his dad to spare him his life if he needs it. He doesn't have to wait long, though, because he has already crossed the "dayu emperor" . He can go back to the mining and use the "essence of formation" to find the "black star pickax"
