Core of the Truehearted - Part Three is the eighty-first chapter of Mo Dao Zu Shi.

Synopsis []

Wei Wuxian congratulates Su She on keeping his spiritual powers before pointedly asking why he pretended to lose them. The papers he had pretended were from Collection of Spirit Turmoil are actually Lan Wangji's notes on the melody Jin Guangyao had altered.

Suddenly, Su She spits blood on the ground to ruin the Repelling Array before escaping with a Transportation Talisman, revealing himself as the Mist-Masked Gravedigger.

Lan Wangji attempts to repair the array, but it is no use. As the crowd panics, the Moling Su Clan disciples stand stunned that their leader evidently deceived them and left them to die.

Parents instruct their children to escape no matter what, and Jin Ling glances at Jiang Cheng hopefully. Unfortunately, Jiang Cheng's response is to ask if there is something in his nephew's eyes.

Lan Wangji blocks Yi Weichun's attempt to attack Wei Wuxian, as Yi Weichun does not believe the events before his eyes. Just then, however, the Fierce Corpses rush in, with only Wen Ning attempting to hold them off.

Jiang Cheng shoves Zidian into Jin Ling's hands as the juniors rush to help Wen Ning, despite their parents' cries. At that, Jin Ling returns Zidian to Jiang CHeng and to join his friends and fight.

Ouyang Zizhen is nearly killed, but Lan Qiren saves him in time. The Gusu Lan Can begins to fight with their swords despite their lack of spiritual energy. Clan Leader Ouyang rallies the others to fight with their swords as well.

Eventually, the wave of corpses is defeated with nearly no loss in life. Exhausted, the juniors sink to the floor of the cave, and upon learning that Jin Ling is unharmed, Jiang Cheng slaps him to the floor.

As Lan Wangji directs the Lan disciples to look after the casualties, Wei Wuxian commands them to be quiet. Another wave of corpses has approached, larger than the last.

As despair begins to overwhelm the cultivators, Wei Wuxian paints a Spirit-Attraction Flag on his own shirt and announces that he will stay behind with Lan Wangji to defend him while the others escape. Wen Ning will clear their path.

The juniors protest, even offering to draw Spirit-Attraction Flags on themselves. Wei Wuxian refuses to allow them, and Lan Wangji salutes Lan Qiren one last time.

As the second wave steps into the cave, Wei Wuxian shoves Lan Sizhui away.[1]
