Abyssal forces and the Holy Spirit Cult prepared to invade the human world, while Nan Fusheng anticipated their move and used a Blood God Legion doppelganger to observe the Abyssal Passage.

• Blood God Legion soldiers and automated weapons fought to hold the exit, while over four hundred soldiers died during the initial retreat and defense.

Nan Fusheng helped defend the Blood God Legion’s main Abyssal Passage while hoping to parasitize a true Abyssal King and observe the Abyssal Plane.

• The Black Empress broke through the seal with other Abyssal Kings and sent Abyssal Creatures surging toward the exit.
• Nan Fusheng recognized the Black Empress as a valuable target but waited after the rift weakened and stopped admitting more kings.

Nan Fusheng secretly parasitized Black Empress while the Abyssal Kings launched a major assault on the Blood God Legion’s passage. Tang Wulin’s Golden Dragon Spear shattered the Black Emperors’ mist and clashed with Black Empress, but Xue Yi used the Blood God Great Array and the plane’s power to weaken her, allowing Zhang Huanyun to rescue Tang Wulin.

• Zhang Huanyun seized the opening created by Xue Yi’s attack and took Tang Wulin away.

The Black Empress waited for a chance to attack while Tang Wulin absorbed abyssal energy through the Blood God Great Array. The Holy Spirit Cult then launched a coordinated ambush on the nine Blood Gods as the Abyssal Kings stormed the passage exit, leaving Xue Qi under threat from a powerful Fallen Angel.

• The Black Empress held back from attacking Tang Wulin directly and sent Abyssal Creatures surging toward the Blood God Legion’s firepower.
• Nan Fusheng and Elizabeth prepared their operation as nine disguised Evil Soul Masters rushed the nine Blood Gods, while the Black Empress led six Abyssal Kings in an assault from within the passage.

The Fallen Angel attacked Xue Qi to disrupt the Blood God Great Array, but he burned his life force to hold it together as the Evil Soul Masters escaped. In the Abyssal Passage, Tang Wulin unleashed overwhelming power, seized an Abyssal King’s Plane Seed, and drove the Black Empress to flee and call for the Abyssal Sage King.
