The Last Immortal Episode 7 Recap
> The Last Immortal Recap
Gu Jin and A Yin arrived at the Gui Xu Mountain, intending to explain their intentions to Princess Chen Min. Suddenly, Hong Yi, who had been hiding in the Qian Kun bag, appeared, eager to destroy Chen Min's Life Tree on the spot because the Empress Bai Zhi had betrayed her trust in the past, leading to the tragic death of her parents. Seeing that Hong Yi and Chen Min were about to clash, Gu Jin quickly took out the family emblem, and indeed, Chen Min's anger subsided significantly. With A Yin's persuasion, Chen Min temporarily spared Hong Yi and handed over the Fire Phoenix Immortal Essence to them.
Once a princess of the Immortal Clan, after experiencing prosperity, Chen Min had lived alone in the desolate Gui Xu Mountain for hundreds of years. Her only solace was regaining the family emblem. However, when she placed the emblem into the groove of a stone monument, it unexpectedly caused a swap between realms. Exploiting the vulnerability, Zuo Ying tried to use the Mountain Guardian Array to trap Gu Jin and A Yin. Even Yan Shuang emerged from the Qian Kun bag to help them. Just as she found the array's core and prepared to cast a spell, Zuo Ying appeared, holding A Yin hostage and threatening Gu Jin to hand over the Fire Phoenix Jade. Gu Jin immediately recognized Zuo Ying as the shadow outside the Flame Boundary, causing the loss of the little Fire Phoenix Immortal Essence.
Upon hearing this, A Yin suddenly realized that they had been manipulated by the Demon Clan. The information about the family emblem in the Night Market was deliberately leaked, and the reason for doing so was to use Gu Jin to bring the emblem, tainted with demonic energy, to Gui Xu Mountain. Gu Jin pretended to take out the Fire Phoenix Jade, seized the opportunity when Zuo Ying was knocked away by his barrier, and saved A Yin in time. Zuo Ying, unwilling to fail, tried to capture Gu Jin and bring him to the Demon Clan. The two sides engaged in a fierce battle. In a crucial moment, Gu Jin's chaotic blood catalyzed the Ancient Emperor's Sword, allowing him to repel the demons. The danger temporarily subsided, and Hong Yi presented a Fox Blood Pill to A Yin, claiming it was for her recovery, but he had his own selfish motive—anyone who took the pill would unquestionably obey the giver.
Hong Yi openly expressed his affection for A Yin, and he also noticed Gu Jin's feelings for her. Therefore, he suggested fair competition, believing that one day he would win A Yin's heart. Gu Jin directly denied it, stating that he regarded A Yin as a junior sister, and his heart belonged to Princess Hua Shu. A Yin felt uncomfortable hearing this. Zuo Ying, injured, returned to report to Qing Lin, and even Qing Lin did not expect that the Fire Phoenix Jade had restrictions. Over the years, Qing Lin had maintained her form by transforming demonic energy, relying on swallowing over a dozen demon pills daily. Therefore, she urgently sought a Nine-Tailed Fox with a physical body for possession, and Hong Yi seemed to be the most suitable candidate, especially with the added opportunity of absorbing the Shiyin Flower's essence.
Upon leaving Gui Xu Mountain, the group headed straight to Da Ze Mountain, with Gu Jin promising to heal Hong Yi and keeping him close. Since Da Ze Mountain was still thousands of kilometers away, and A Yin's celestial power was relatively weak, they planned to rest in the demon realm for one night before continuing. Hong Ruo came to find Hong Yi but failed to persuade him to return. Instead, she discovered his injuries and condensed nearly half of her internal energy into a bracelet, which she gave to Hong Yi. She also secretly transferred the Shiyin Flower on his body into her own.
Originally planning to ambush Hong Yi, Qing Lin was injured by his bracelet and had to flee the demon realm. Although Hong Yi was unaware of these events, the bracelet protected him from close approaches. Qing Lin focused her attention on Hong Ruo, using her identity as the elder of the demon realm and the leader of the fox clan to provoke a conflict between the immortals and demons. Gu Jin and A Yin returning to the mountain was a significant event. Xian Shan heard the news and came to welcome them with Xian Zhu. Seeing the Fox Clan young master standing beside A Yin, Xian Zhu understood the situation. Despite the historical grievances between the immortal and demon races, even though the war had ceased for nearly a century, there were still few interactions. Therefore, Xian Zhu gave Hong Yi a rare Hidden Demon Token as a goodwill gesture, aiming to protect him and improve Hong Yi's perception of the immortal clan.
Lan Feng took over as the Heavenly Emperor in charge of the immortal realm. Upon learning that the demon clan had intervened in the matter of the Fire Phoenix Jade, he sent someone to the demon realm to discuss joining forces to investigate the demons. However, Demon Emperor Lin Sen was unwilling to get involved, even considering the immortal realm mostly made up of incompetent people who couldn't make a difference. Hong Ruo had a different perspective, combining various suspicious signs and instantly associating them with Qing Lin. However, everyone believed that Qing Lin had already been sealed and posed no threat.
During dinner, Xian Shan revealed the umbrella gifted by Gu Jin, a gesture that pleased the beauties but made A Yin feel uncomfortable. Upon learning that the Peacock Clan had defeated the Eagle King using the umbrella, A Yin, unable to bear it, found an excuse to leave. Qing Yi gave lotus seeds to A Yin and praised Princess Hua Shu, causing A Yin to lose her appetite. Hong Yi transformed into his original form to scare Qing Yi on A Yin's behalf but was rejected when he suggested taking a break with A Yin. A Yin's younger sister, A Yu, had not yet hatched and required nurturing from the Yun Nong Mountain. Since the location of Yun Nong Mountain had been unknown since the War between Immortals and Demons seventy thousand years ago, Gu Jin asked his senior brother to borrow ancient books from the Southern Heaven Cave to trace the mountain's whereabouts. Xian Zhu had once met the Southern Heaven Cave's master, promising to help Gu Jin borrow the ancient books.
While A Yin was healing Hong Yi, consuming celestial power, Gu Jin, noticing the situation, quickly brought celestial fruits. Hong Yi expressed the desire to solve the problem at its root, requiring the acquisition of Yin Fire and Yang Ice. Unfortunately, such treasures were rare, and if they found even a piece, it would save A Yin from further depletion. A Yin, not wanting to worry them, pretended everything was fine, but Gu Jin silently remembered Hong Yi's words.
