After the battle, Qian Renxue took the throne of the Spirit Hall Empire and worked with Ye Han to restore order and win the people's support. The Dai and Zhu Families' rebellion was crushed, the continent settled into broad peace, and rumors that Ye Han had killed multiple gods made Anle City a holy land for soul masters.

• Ye Han advised Qian Renxue to abolish Bibi Dong's heavy taxes and release those who had been forcibly conscripted as she began handling the empire's affairs.
• Ghost Charm reported that the Dai Family and Zhu Family had started uprisings, and Ye Han asked Dai Yunfei to suppress them.

• Bing Haoyu and Zhao Lei's drunken boasting spread the belief that Ye Han had killed the Demon God as well as the Rakshasa God, making Anle City a holy land for soul masters.

Ye Han searched for a new reason to cultivate and decided to explore beneath the sea, but first he needed to break through to Soul Douluo. He helped a Demon Horn Lizard survive its three-hundred-thousand-year lightning tribulation and reached level eighty.

• Esdeath scolded Ye Han for slacking off because his companions had been stuck at level seventy-nine for four months, and he agreed to cultivate again.
• Ye Han chose to explore Vast Sea City and sought lightning tribulations as a way to help everyone break through.

• Di Tian led Ye Han to a Demon Horn Lizard that needed to undergo a three-hundred-thousand-year lightning tribulation.
• Ye Han absorbed the tribulation’s power, helped the Demon Horn Lizard survive, and reached level eighty.

After reaching Level 80, Ye Han prepared to travel to Vast Sea City with his companions and unexpectedly welcomed Qian Renxue, who left Golden Alligator Douluo in charge of the Spirit Hall Empire. At Second Dimension Academy, Zhao Lei absorbed a Soul Bone and broke through to Level 99, then immediately challenged Bing Haoyu.

• Ye Han discussed Soul Rings with Di Tian and said he would seek sea Soul Beasts for his Level 90 rings rather than hunt in the Star Dou Great Forest.

• Zhao Lei emerged as a Level 99 Limit Douluo and challenged Bing Haoyu, then drew the gathered crowd's congratulations and teasing.

Ye Han and the others followed the trail of a missing sunken ship into an undersea trench, where they discovered countless empty wrecks and encountered a 97,000-year-old Deep Sea Giant Python. They suspected the python was guarding the wrecks and wondered who was collecting the ships, leaving the mystery unresolved.

• Ye Han led Glaze into the depths to search for the sunken ship and found drag marks leading toward an undersea trench.
• Ye Han brought Glaze down the trench, where the group discovered numerous sunken ships scattered across the seabed.
• Esdeath sent four ice soldiers to inspect the wrecks, and Qian Renxue noticed that the ships had been stripped bare.
• A Deep Sea Giant Python swallowed the ice soldiers, then burrowed into the seabed sand and disappeared.
• Ye Han suspected the python was guarding the wrecks, while the group considered whether someone was collecting the ships with help from multiple creatures.

Ye Han and his companions waited near the Sunken Ships, then discovered a Deep Sea Demon Dragon secretly feeding goods to an incomplete Abyss product. They followed him to an altar and planned to steal the next shipment to lure him into a confrontation.

• Ye Han explained that the group would wait near the Sunken Ships and watch for the creature or person behind them while everyone settled in aboard Glaze.
• A Dwelling Octopus delivered a Sunken Ship, and a Deep Sea Python killed Esdeath's soldiers before guarding it.
• The group later spotted a person carrying goods from a Sunken Ship and used Appraise to identify him as a 560,000-year-old Deep Sea Demon Dragon.
• Ye Han followed the demon dragon to an altar, where he placed the goods into a Golden Cup that Appraise identified as an incomplete Abyss product.
• Ye Han rejected Zhao Lei's suggestion to attack immediately and proposed stealing the next shipment to lure the demon dragon to them.

Ye Han and his companions captured Ba Yu after tricking the Demon Dragon into entering their trap, then used a potion to learn that the Golden Cup supposedly could revive the Deep Sea Demon Dragon Clan. Ye Han told Ba Yu the cup had deceived him and set off to confront the god inside it.

• Ye Han used Soul Power to make two Sunken Ships vanish, confusing the octopus and python before the Demon Dragon arrived.
• The Demon Dragon followed Ye Han's trail into Glaze, where Bing Haoyu and Zhao Lei subdued it.
• Ye Han questioned the Demon Dragon about the Golden Cup, and Honjou Kaede's potion compelled it to identify itself as Ba Yu and say the cup was meant to revive the Deep Sea Demon Dragon Clan.
• Ba Yu said the god inside the cup had promised revival but warned that the wish would fail if anyone learned of him.
• Ye Han insisted the cup had deceived Ba Yu and piloted Glaze toward its location to speak with the god.

Ye Han exposed Charles as a fake god by asking him to identify his godhood and summoning the Ice God Luo Xi and the real Soul God, Ling Yi. Charles begged for mercy after Ling Yi revealed his deception, while Ba Yu turned on him in anger.

• Ye Han brought Golden Cup to the altar and forced Charles to appear by threatening to destroy it.
• Charles claimed to be a righteous god, but Ye Han asked him to name his godhood and summoned Esdeath's connection to Luo Xi.
• Luo Xi challenged Charles to name his godhood, and Charles claimed he had been the Soul God a thousand years earlier.
• Ye Han contacted Ling Yi, who identified Charles's bluff and revealed that Xi Yue held the Soul God position after him.
• Charles recognized Ling Yi and begged for mercy, while Ba Yu realized Charles had deceived him and threatened to kill him.

Ye Han questioned Charles about the Abyss and learned that a special crystal there could revive the dead, though it required a high-ranking Abyss Soul for each person. After Honjou Kaede proved she could imitate the Abyss’s Fallen Aura, Ye Han decided to prepare for a journey there with Ba Yu.

• Ba Yu prepared to kill Charles for deceiving him, but Ye Han intervened to question Charles about the Abyss.
• Charles explained that Ling Yi had shattered the Abyss and that he had gathered energy to return there; he warned that outsiders would be discovered without the Fallen Aura.
• Charles revealed a legend that a crystal in the Highest Level Palace could revive people or Soul Beasts, at the cost of one high-ranking Abyss Soul per revival.
• Ba Yu decided to accompany Ye Han to the Abyss in hopes of reviving his clansmen.
• Honjou Kaede drank a potion that gave her an aura identical to the Abyss’s Fallen Aura, and Ye Han decided to prepare for the journey after settling matters where they were.

Ye Han and his companions entered the Abyss to investigate how it operated and discovered that Abyss City was a luxurious but brutal place governed by a strict hierarchy. Ye Han planned to fight his way into the Inner City during the coming monthly battle, while the others gathered information and prepared to support him.

• Ye Han supplied Charles with energy to open the Abyss, and the group explained why they wanted to investigate it despite the danger.
• After drinking Honjou Kaede’s potion, Ye Han’s group followed Charles through a blood-red tunnel into Abyss City, where the journey left everyone vomiting.

• Ye Han learned the battle would take place the day after tomorrow and chose Esdeath, Yoruichi, and Zhao Lei to join him, while the others stayed behind to gather information or reach Middle City.

Ye Han entered the Advancement Road alone and challenged Inner City after defeating a management fighter. He killed Lu Yun with the Holy Grail, gained a place in Inner City, and Esdeath and the others secured management positions in Middle City.

• Ye Han decided to challenge alone because he could imitate the Abyss's corrosive Soul Power, while Esdeath and the others would aim for management ranks.
• At the advancement gathering, Ye Han killed a burly management fighter instantly and insisted on challenging an Inner City resident.

• Ye Han chose to trust Xu Xu and asked him to open the way out of the Abyss.
• Xu Xu gave Ye Han a token that let him bring people freely in and out of the Inner City, and Ye Han left to find his companions.

Ye Han brought Xu Xu and his companions to the seabed to find a Space Stone, while Xu Xu used Ye Han as cover from Ling Yi. After reaching the stone, Ba Yu asked about a crystal that could communicate with souls, and Ye Han encouraged him to keep hoping for a way to revive the dead.

• Xu Xu left to rescue the captives, while Esdeath ordered Shi Xu to take the Wolf King to the military camp for further punishment.

After the Wolf Thief crisis, Ye Han gathered blood from Di Tian and the Snow Empress so Esdeath could enhance the Space Stones. The enhanced stones proved far larger, leaving Xu Xu to face his boast that he would wash his hair upside down if the experiment worked.

• Xu Xu excused himself, realizing he might have to wash his hair upside down after all.

Ye Han gathered Anle City's leaders to find a way to cleanse Space Stone without destroying its spatial properties, and Ning Fengzhi suggested that a Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda might help.
