When I first got to China, I stared around wide-eyed at everything. After some time passed, I spent time studying the Chinese characters on various signs and advertisements. Now, I walk around staring at my iPhone, upon which are the raws of ISSTH. That's right, I'm reading ahead in Chinese way past the current released chapters. I guess this means I can officially say I'm no longer translating as I go. Also, it significantly increases the chances I will trip over a curb or fall into an open manhole. Gotta be careful!

Chapter 174: Perfect Mid Foundation Establishment! Chapter 175: Li Shiqi Translated by Deathblade Contributing Editors: Madam Deathblade, John Rogers Proofreaders: Lingson, MeeBoo and Yascob Chapter 175 Sponsors: David Phan, Eric Archer, Robert Kunzi and Gary Cosby

Many thanks to Fellow Daoists David Phan, Eric Archer, Robert Kunzi and Gary Cosby for brining the first sponsored chapter of the week! Chapter 174 is the third guaranteed chapter of the week!

UPDATE.... about a change to a previous chapter ....

I made a change to chapter 34 to make the translation more accurate. There was a character that I mis-translated in the original version regarding the Demon Lord. If you care to, re-read that passage. If you've been paying close attention you will notice the change. If you don't notice the change, then no harm done.....
