Chapter Summaries

Chu Fei killed Chen Xing after Julie failed to stop his pursuit and Chen Xing attacked him despite surrendering. As two armed experts from the Lord's Mansion arrived, Chu Fei evaded their attacks and killed one with Chen Xing's severed tongue, leaving the other still in the fight.

• Julie transformed and absorbed Chu Fei's first punch, but Chu Fei overwhelmed her with three rapid blows that destroyed her abdomen and killed her.
• Chen Xing flew toward the Lord's Mansion, but Chu Fei caught up; Chen Xing pretended to surrender, then attacked with his spinning mutated tongue, which Chu Fei caught and examined.
• Chen Xing severed his tongue with his nanofluid-metal teeth, but Chu Fei struck his shoulder and chest, collapsed his Life Energy System, and crushed his head before the two pursuing experts could intervene.
• One expert fired an Electromagnetic Sniper Rifle while the other attacked with a shotgun; Chu Fei dodged the shot and blocked the blast with Nanofluid Metal and Protective Aura.
• Chu Fei used seven small iron pellets to disrupt both attackers, then whipped the foremost man with Chen Xing's severed tongue and knocked off his head.

After seizing Dawn City, Chu Fei inspected its Underground World and discovered valuable Berserk Potion and Non-Permanent Augmentation technology. He ordered production of flight augmentations to help fight the living corpses, then left Dawn City without discussing his own terms, saying he had come for Flying Tiger City's people.

• Chu Fei killed the City Lord and Zhai Xifei, frightened Jiang Tengyu into surrender, and forced Dawn City's remaining leaders to accept its merger with the Iron Blood Mercenary Group.
• Chu Fei and the others toured Dawn City's Underground World, where he learned about its Berserk Potion formula and copied the wing augmentation materials.
• A veteran technician explained that Non-Permanent Augmentation caused little bodily harm but was costly, and Chu Fei recognized its potential for his Abyss Team.
• Chu Fei ordered full-scale wing production and promised escalating potion rewards for higher output, while Zhou Pengyue questioned whether they could use so many wings.
• When Zhou Pengyue asked about terms, Chu Fei said they could discuss them after Flying Tiger City's five hundred thousand people arrived, explaining that he had come for them rather than for himself.

After Flying Tiger City completed its evacuation and the Abyss Team was established, Chu Fei received a distress call from Hong City and discussed its fate with Zhou Pengyue. They rejected killing Hong City's civilians preemptively and chose to attempt a costly rescue and use the evacuation to weaken the Living Corpse Tide; Chu Fei then arranged to negotiate with Black Iron City.

• Wu Yong and Chu Fei oversaw Flying Tiger City's orderly evacuation while the Iron Blood Mercenary Group prepared the city as a wartime bridgehead.
• Chu Fei finalized the Abyss Team's roster, and the team became an independent partner of the Iron Blood Mercenary Group.
• Chu Fei received a distress call from Hong City and consulted Wu Yong about the Living Corpse Brood Queen's siege.
• Chu Fei and Zhou Pengyue considered poisoning Hong City's 1.8 million residents to deny the Living Corpse Tide their life energy, but chose to attempt a rescue instead.
• Chu Fei proposed coordinating an evacuation and fighting the Living Corpse Tide across the region toward Black Iron City.
• Black Iron City quickly accepted Chu Fei's application to visit, and he prepared to negotiate with them.

Chu Fei negotiated Black Iron City's support for the rescue of Hong City, then entered its Dimensional Space to explore the Trial Pyramid and gather knowledge. After rapidly advancing through its first eight levels, he reached the top and found a Music Box that offered a technologically derived perfect human body as a reward.

• Chu Fei met Hong Qingxin and persuaded him to cooperate in preparing a rescue effort for Hong City, with Black Iron City supplying transport, surveillance, defenses, and temporary bases.
• Chu Fei and Hong Qingxin agreed on cooperation terms, including Chu Fei's entry into Black Iron City's Dimensional Space, and Chu Fei showed him an image of the damaged Resurrection Disc.
• Chu Fei entered the Dimensional Space and began exploring the Trial Pyramid, using Wisdom Dewdrops, Mind Power, and Living Corpse Crystal Cores to accelerate his study.
• Chu Fei analyzed thousands of models and climbed through the pyramid's levels, recording geometric, biological, technological, and theoretical material as he went.
• Chu Fei reached the ninth floor, where a Music Box announced that it contained the most perfect human body derived through technological deduction as a reward.

Chu Fei absorbed the Perfect Lover model, gaining a body restoration point, then left the Dimensional Space after studying its sculptures. Outside, he learned Hong City was collapsing under an attack by tunneling living corpses, and the rescue force needed an elite vanguard to cross Egret River.

• Chu Fei learned that the Perfect Lover models could aid cultivation and store his body's information, then absorbed the male model and established a restoration point.
• Chu Fei spent nearly sixty hours studying the sculptures on the seventh level before the Dimensional Space forced him to leave.
• A soldier led Chu Fei to Hong Qingxin and Zhou Pengyue, who told him Hong City was finished.
• Hong Qingxin showed footage of living corpse tunnels opening inside Hong City's walls and releasing swarms of Crawlers.
• Hong Qingxin and Zhou Pengyue explained that the rescue force was stalled at Egret River and needed an elite vanguard to clear a crossing, as everyone looked to Chu Fei.

Chu Fei finalized the Abyss Team’s plan to support Hong City by taking a separate northern route and using the mission to train and gather resources. After explaining the benefits to his team, he led them north with renewed determination.

• Chu Fei proposed that the Abyss Team circle west around the mountains and attack north of Hong City while an elite squad crossed the river under artillery cover.
• Hong Qingxin and Zhou Pengyue approved Chu Fei’s plan, and Huang Yuwen arrived with twenty flying birds to supply the motorcycle unit.
• After the Abyss Team left Black Iron City, Chu Fei stopped the convoy and explained that battles near Hong City would provide training, Living Corpse Crystal Cores, and resources for their preparations to enter The Inland.
• Chu Fei announced that the Abyss Team had 247 members, including seventeen Second-level Knights, and rallied them to move north.

Chu Fei used Spiritual Perception to examine the Living Corpse Tide surrounding Hong City and discovered the Living Corpse Brood Queen’s overwhelming radiance, along with hidden Level 10.0 experts inside and outside the city. He searched for a battlefield where his inexperienced group could win without casualties, despite having no artillery support.

• Chu Fei and his companions surveyed Hong City, where the Living Corpse Tide had trapped civilians and the city’s leaders had sacrificed some people to buy time for defenses.
• Chu Fei saw two Giant Corpses over thirty meters tall among the millions of living corpses and worried that the group’s previous tactics would not work against them.
• Chu Fei consumed Wisdom Dewdrop and Mind Power, then used mathematical methods to clarify his Spiritual Perception and perceive the world’s super-dimensional radiance.
• Chu Fei identified the Living Corpse Brood Queen near Hong City’s Northwest Gate, five Level 10.0 experts inside the city, and more than fifty Level 10.0 radiances outside it.
• Chu Fei searched for a suitable battlefield for the newcomers’ first battle, aiming for a difficult but victorious fight with plentiful gains and no deaths, without artillery support from Hong City.

Chu Fei led 247 motorcycle riders through the Living Corpse Tide on a carefully chosen route, using speed and teamwork to break through and defeat its strongest defenders. The team emerged without casualties after killing around eight thousand living corpses, and Chu Fei called their trail the Path to Victory.

• Chu Fei chose a remote advance route, briefed the riders, and ordered them to prioritize breaking through rather than harvesting Living Corpse Crystal Cores.
• Chu Fei led the 247 riders into the Living Corpse Tide, outmaneuvering its response and carving through Crawlers, Flying Living Corpses, and other attackers.
• The riders scattered an Octopus Living Corpse and cut down a Giant Corpse as they maintained their high-speed advance.
• Chu Fei dodged the Four-legged Giant Corpse's cannon-barrel strike, rammed it with his motorcycle, and pulled its Living Corpse Crystal Core from its chest.
• The team broke through the Living Corpse Tide and reached a hill without losing anyone; Chu Fei said they had killed around eight thousand living corpses and named their route the Path to Victory.

Chu Fei led 247 fighters through five charges into the Living Corpse Tide, killing more than seventy thousand Living Corpses and collecting 1,144 Crystal Cores before the team rested and cultivated. As the fighters began to transform through their victories, Chu Fei resolved to test their worth on the battlefield, but an urgent request arrived: Hong City was preparing for a mass evacuation, with two hours remaining.

• Chu Fei led the team on repeated charges through the Living Corpse Tide, and they killed more than seventy thousand Living Corpses in twenty minutes without losing anyone.
• The team collected 1,144 Living Corpse Crystal Cores, distributed the spoils, and received supplies from Huang Yuwen's support unit.
• The fighters rested and meditated, and several began to loosen their cultivation bottlenecks as their confidence grew.
• Chu Fei decided to test the less responsive members in battle and use the results to classify their abilities.
• Hong City sent an urgent request for cooperation and announced a mass evacuation with a two-hour countdown.

Hong City prepared to evacuate its remaining 1.6 million people through a single southeastern breach while reinforcements planned a major assault on the Living Corpse Tide. Chu Fei arranged for Abyss Team to disrupt the tide from the east and northeast, and the chapter ended as artillery began the attack.

• Li Shaorong warned Chu Fei that one escape route could cause mass casualties, and Chu Fei concluded that the city had no choice but to concentrate its forces and command.
• Chu Fei joined a command discussion, proposed attacking from multiple points with Abyss Team’s motorcycle blitzkrieg, and secured two guided missiles and additional supplies.
• Chu Fei and his team took their assigned position east and northeast of the planned southeastern breakout, where a dense Living Corpse Tide and web-like tendrils threatened their mobility.
• Chu Fei urged Abyss Team to fight for Hong City’s people and their compatriots, and the team readied its weapons with renewed resolve.
• Artillery shells began raining down on the gathered Living Corpse Tide as the general assault started.

Chu Fei saw the human forces faltering against the Living Corpse Tide and chose to lead a death mission into its densest inner layer. He selected thirty Abyss Team elites, left Zhao Hongyue and the rest to support their retreat, and charged toward the horde after requesting a guidance missile.

• Hong City's forces and outside reinforcements attacked the Living Corpse Tide, but their strikes failed to harm its strongest members in the dense central ring.
• Chu Fei led the Abyss Team around the horde's outer edge, escaping pursuing high-level Living Corpses and reaching a hill overlooking the battlefield.
• Chu Fei saw the enormous civilian evacuation and its devastating death toll, then proposed activating Project S, the Death Plan.
• Huang Gang and the Abyss Team raised their blades in support, and Chu Fei selected thirty elites to charge into the inner layer while Zhao Hongyue led the remaining team outside.
• Chu Fei asked Zhou Pengyue to prepare a guidance missile, then led the thirty fighters in a charge toward the Living Corpse Tide.

Chu Fei led the Abyss Team on a high-speed motorcycle assault through the Living Corpse Tide, using missiles and coordinated attacks to break through to a cultivation center. After killing the Giant Corpse overseeing a transformation, he charged on toward a newly reacted mass of mutated Living Corpses.

• Chu Fei and thirty elite Abyss Team members smashed through the Living Corpse Tide on motorcycles, then used a missile strike to break a blockade and kill a Four-legged Giant Corpse.
• Chu Fei used Perception of Wind and the Cosmic Brain to locate a Living Corpse cultivation center, where a Giant Corpse was transforming by fusing with another and consuming captured humans.
• The team fired rockets into the cultivation center, swept more than seven hundred captives with machine-gun fire, and severed the legs of the two fusing Giant Corpses to take their crystal cores.
• Chu Fei handed his motorcycle to Huang Gang, flew at the enraged Four-legged Giant Corpse, and killed it in 3.5 seconds by cutting out its crystal core.
• Chu Fei explained that the team could not carry the captives and had killed them to spare them from being eaten alive, then led the riders toward the far side of the center.
• Two Giant Corpses and numerous mutated Living Corpses attacked the team, forming a dense barrier with no room to evade.

Chu Fei and his companions broke through the living corpses’ blockade, only to be surrounded by an intelligent Eight-legged Giant Corpse. Chu Fei and the Feathered Serpent wounded it and Chu Fei severed part of one leg, but the Giant Corpse knocked him into the air and brought a massive palm down on him.

• Chu Fei shared his calculations with the group, and the riders used rockets and boosted motorcycles to smash through the living corpses’ blockade.
• After reuniting with the other twenty-seven riders, Chu Fei realized the Eight-legged Giant Corpse had trapped their group of thirty-two and chosen to confront it.
• Chu Fei sent out the trained Feathered Serpent, which struck the Giant Corpse’s head while ninety-three rockets battered its four right legs and broke their Protective Aura.
• The Feathered Serpent attacked the Giant Corpse’s temple again, and Chu Fei charged in with an Atomic Array saber to sever seventy percent of one lower leg.
• The Giant Corpse erupted with Protective Aura, flipped Chu Fei away, and swung its enormous palm down at him.

Chu Fei used scientific knowledge, precise calculations, and specialized weapons to defeat the Level 12.0 Giant Corpse despite his lower Cultivation Level. After reviewing the fight, he gained a deeper understanding of how Super Soldiers used knowledge to overcome stronger enemies.

• Chu Fei dodged the Giant Corpse’s crushing palm and used an Atomic Array longsword to sever its wrist and palm.
• Chu Fei evaded the Giant Corpse’s attacks, cut off both palms, and surfed its Protective Aura to reach its back.

Chu Fei led the Motorcycle Team through the Living Corpse Tide after defeating an Eight-legged Giant Corpse and drawing the Living Corpse Brood Queen’s attention. Despite mounting danger and losses, the team broke out of the tide and reached a hill three kilometers beyond it.

• Chu Fei defeated the Eight-legged Giant Corpse, but the Living Corpse Brood Queen sent an enraged signal that triggered a coordinated attack on him.
• Chu Fei escaped the swarm and reunited with Zhao Hongyue’s group, then led the Motorcycle Team deeper through the tide using his calculations and Perception of Wind.
• The Living Corpse Brood Queen’s influence drove the surrounding Living Corpses into a frenzy, so Chu Fei transmitted routes and battle calculations to coordinate the team’s escape.
• A Semi-Awakened rider fell behind and died in an explosion, becoming the Abyss Team’s first casualty as other riders began to struggle.
• Zhou Pengyue and Hong Qingxin provided five artillery shells, giving Chu Fei’s group an opening to accelerate and break out of the tide’s core region.
• Chu Fei led the team out of the Living Corpse Tide and stopped only after they had raced three kilometers away to a hill over two hundred meters high.

After losing fifteen riders in the battle for Hong City, Chu Fei’s team rested before returning to the battlefield to collect Living Corpse Crystal Cores. Chu Fei surveyed Hong City’s devastation and the desperate retreat across the Great River, then led the silent convoy into the blood-red wilderness as the night battle continued.

• Chu Fei’s riders blamed inadequate fire support for the fifteen deaths, but Long Tengwu said fighting for their homeland had eased their guilt and let them leave with clear consciences.
• Chu Fei ordered the team to retreat for two hours, repair their motorcycles, rest, and return only to collect Living Corpse Crystal Cores.
• After the rest, Chu Fei surveyed Hong City and found it dead, with about 700,000 people apparently unable to escape and survivors still fighting the Living Corpse Tide near the Great River.
• Chu Fei spotted a distant, headless half-bodied figure that might have been the Living Corpse Brood Queen, then discussed tactics with the team.
• Chu Fei led the Abyss Team into the blood-red wilderness at night, where they rode silently across a vast field of corpses.

Chu Fei’s team hunted the Living Corpse Tide through the night, easing pressure on Hong City’s fleeing civilians before retreating across the river. After the team underwent a collective breakthrough, Chu Fei watched the exhausted refugees being overtaken and realized that only killing the half-bodied Living Corpse Brood Queen could save them, though it remained invincible.

• Chu Fei identified the half-bodied monster as the resurrected Living Corpse Brood Queen and saw that more than seven million living corpses had trapped Hong City’s survivors at the riverbank.
• Chu Fei led the Motorcycle Team in repeated attacks on the Living Corpse Tide, killing over three hundred thousand living corpses overnight while six team members died.
• The team retreated across the river, shared more than eight thousand Living Corpse Crystal Cores, and cultivated; twelve members reached the threshold of Fully Awakened, and the Abyss Team advanced collectively.
• Chu Fei surveyed the fleeing crowd and saw living corpses rebuild three bridges across the river and pursue the exhausted survivors south.
• Chu Fei recognized that the refugees could not keep fleeing and that killing the Living Corpse Brood Queen was their only hope, but the half-bodied queen remained invincible.

Chu Fei withdrew from the northern battlefield after helping kill hundreds of thousands of living corpses, then warned Flying Tiger City about the Living Corpse Brood Queen and the danger facing the northern forces. He and Wu Yong prepared for the possibility that Hong Qingxin might join the enemy, while Chu Fei entered the Virtual Center to improve his abilities and prepare his team for breakthroughs.

• Chu Fei and Zhao Hongyue left the battlefield after deciding they could not save refugees who had lost the will to survive, and Chu Fei feared the Living Corpse Brood Queen had targeted him.
• Chu Fei’s motorcycle team passed Black Iron City without stopping and returned toward Flying Tiger City, where he reported the northern danger and told the city to prepare.
• Chu Fei showed Wu Yong images of the Living Corpse Brood Queen, and Wu Yong urged preparations to retreat when the battle turned against them.
• Chu Fei described a worst-case scenario in which Hong Qingxin joined the Living Corpse Brood Queen, cut off the northern retreat, and sent the tide south; Wu Yong told him to plan for it.
• Chu Fei asked his battle team to suggest responses to the worst-case scenario, then used the Virtual Center to accelerate calculations and prepare cultivation techniques.
• Chu Fei perfected and optimized the third-layer algorithm of Perception of Wind, increasing its effectiveness by more than twenty percent, and then began working on activating the Shark Scale Gene.

Chu Fei deduced an improved double-layer shark-scale gene sequence, then led the Abyss Team in planning ways to prepare for further battles. As the team agreed to use Flying Tiger City and Dawn City’s resources to strengthen their forces, news arrived that Hong Qingxin had defected.

• Chu Fei spent more than four hours using a computer and the Cosmic Brain to deduce and verify a stable double-layer shark-scale gene sequence, then practiced activating it in Virtual Space until dawn.
• Chu Fei gathered the Abyss Team to discuss the worst-case scenario and warned them that even powerful fighters could be forced to flee.
• Huang Gang and the other team members proposed upgrading their motorcycles, weapons, armor, supplies, and training to improve their combat strength.
• Chu Fei decided to customize motorcycles, increase Nitrogen-5 Anion Salt production, design specialized equipment, stockpile potions, and expand access to virtual training.
• The team received news that Hong Qingxin had defected.

After Hong Qingxin betrayed the allied forces, Chu Fei weighed whether to abandon the northern battle and leave for The Inland, but Wu Yong helped him settle on fighting while protecting his conscience and future. Chu Fei prepared the Abyss Team for eventual evacuation, then flew north alone and reached the front line.

• Hong Qingxin betrayed the allied forces at dawn, forcing Zhou Pengyue to retreat south with Hong City's elites while ordinary people were left behind.
• Chu Fei and the Abyss Team failed to find a workable rescue plan, so Chu Fei consulted Wu Yong, who advised him that he could leave but should act according to his conscience.
• Chu Fei decided to fight while retreating, informed Flying Tiger City's officers about its defenses, and ordered the Abyss Team to prepare equipment and supplies for migration.
• Chu Fei told the Abyss Team to redesign their motorcycles for prolonged combat and announced that he would head north alone because he could fly faster than they could travel.
• After replenishing his supplies and sleeping, Chu Fei flew through the night to the front line, where he smelled blood and living corpses.
