• A human female warrior leapt from the woods and landed in the Abyssal Knights’ path.

Athina and Reslin’s group fought Akolag and the Abyssal Knights, killing the Chosen and wiping out his force. With the battlefield cleared, they gathered around Akolag’s corpse to examine him.

After Reslin’s party killed Akolag, they learned that the Netherfolk Chosen Champion Doom Lord Ekon might retaliate over the amulet Akolag’s pursuers had recovered from an abandoned temple. The team let Kenrich and his survivors go, then continued toward Danmofu, where Yizite revealed that Ekon was prophesied to become the Eternal Chosen One and lead an invasion of the Old Continent.

• Yizite revealed a prophecy that Ekon would unify the Netherfolk, become the Eternal Chosen One, and lead the Abyss Legion in an invasion of the Old Continent.

Reslin and his companions continued destroying Demon Nests in Danmofu to draw out the Balor Dimath, while Reslin rapidly spent the electricity they collected to strengthen his spells and Rayne’s abilities. Their raid reached an Abyssal Dwarf village near the Abyssal Gate, where Reslin sensed an enemy teleporting in just as the team prepared to attack.

• Yizite told the team that Doom Lord Akeon was uniting the Netherfolk and might fulfill a prophecy about the Abyss destroying the Old Continent, while the companions doubted the distant human nations would intervene.

• Yizite urged the team to accelerate their raids, and they destroyed six Demon Nests in half a day as Reslin gathered more than 1,200 units of electricity.
• The team teleported to an Abyssal Dwarf village near the Abyssal Gate, but Reslin stopped Athina when he sensed someone teleporting into the village.

• Reslin sensed another teleportation and saw Balor arriving with more demons.

Yizite, Reslin, and their teammates confronted Dimath, the Balor of Danmofu, and endured its opening Firestorm before launching a coordinated attack. Their spells bound and battered Dimath, leaving the Demon Lord wounded and trapped in a crater as the fight continued.

• Yizite’s team drank their prepared potions and received Reslin’s Greater Flame Protection and Dawnsos’s Mind Protection before Dimath appeared.
• Dimath unleashed a Firestorm, but Athina and Reslin shielded the team, and Dawnsos healed their injuries afterward.
• The team spread out as Dimath attacked with its Flame Whip and Executioner’s Sword; Athina met it head-on while Reslin moved Dawnsos to safety.
• Dimath trapped Yizite with its Flame Whip, but the team’s Maze Spells freed him, and Reslin’s Mirror Images confused the Balor.
• Dimath ordered its demons to attack and tried to evade the team, but Void Chains bound it and Bigby’s Crushing Fist smashed it into a crater.

Reslin and his teammates fought the Balor with coordinated spells, weapons, and healing, gradually wearing it down but exhausting their own strength. After two minutes of battle, Reslin’s Mirror Images stopped casting and countless purple rays filled the sky, beginning the attack he had prepared.

• Athina, Bellac, Reslin, Dawnsos, and Yizite unleashed their attacks, but the Balor resisted most of them, healed quickly, and escaped their initial assault.
• Reslin used stacked Bigby's Grasping Hand spells to catch the Balor’s Flame Whip, and his Mirror Images cut it apart with three Void-Splitting Swords before his team pinned the demon down.
• Athina’s Giants, Yizite’s Soul Rend attacks, Bellac’s gunfire, Reslin’s spells, and Dawnsos’s healing combined to hold the Balor in a prolonged battle.
• The Balor’s stamina declined as the team’s strength and resources dwindled, while Reslin’s original body vanished without the others noticing.
• Bellac asked whether Reslin was ready, and Reslin answered as his Mirror Images stopped casting and purple rays filled the sky.

Reslin used True Mirror Image Spell and more than three hundred Spears of Light to overwhelm the Balor while his allies kept it from escaping. After the Balor charged Reslin and was stopped by Dawnsos, Yizite decapitated it.

• Bellac saw Reslin create twenty-six Mirror Images and summon hundreds of Spears of Light.
• Reslin sealed the battlefield with Spatial Lock and sent 312 Spears of Light into the Balor, tearing through its defenses.

• Dawnsos shattered the Balor's damaged knee, and Reslin's True Mirror Image hit it with an Anti-Magic Ray.
• Reslin's Spears of Light tore through the Balor's neck, and Yizite cut off its head.

Reslin and his team launched a surprise attack on the Abyssal Gate at Danmofu, where Yizite revealed that he hoped to recover the lost Phoenix Crown beneath the ruins. They damaged the gate and held back the Demon Army as Reslin’s Mirror Images continued their assault.

• Yizite revealed that he had hunted Dimath because Danmofu’s underground ruins might contain the Phoenix Crown, a legendary treasure lost by the Dwarves.
• Reslin stopped the discussion and teleported his team to the Abyssal Gate, where the Demon Army immediately attacked them.
• Dawnsos, Bellac, Athina, and Yizite fought the demons while Reslin’s twenty-five Mirror Images devastated the army with Spears of Light.
• Reslin’s Mirror Images bombarded a weak point in the Abyssal Gate, opening a hole and destabilizing its portal.
• The Demon Army overwhelmed the team’s defenses, but the Spears of Light swept back around to protect them as Reslin’s Soul Power Pool rapidly filled.
• Rayne used the surging charge in Glamorgan to upgrade his energy-hungry elements while Reslin’s Mirror Images attacked a second weak point in the gate.

Rayne used the electricity Reslin gathered from demon souls to strengthen several elements, while Reslin and his team fought at the Abyssal Gate. Body of Steel, Mithril Body, and True Dragon Body fused into a new Legendary Element, which Rayne named Titanium Extreme Golden Body.

• Rayne spent the Soul Power Pool’s electricity to raise Strength to level 14 and improve his other elements while Reslin fought demons at the Abyssal Gate.
• Reslin used a Fabricated Gravity Field and Spear of Light to kill waves of demons and collect their souls, keeping his teammates safe as the Demon Army surrounded them.

• Rayne discovered that the three elements had fused into a new Legendary Element and named it Titanium Extreme Golden Body.

Rayne advanced his Body of Steel, Mithril Body, and True Dragon Body into the powerful Titanium Extreme Golden Body, while Reslin destroyed the Abyssal Gate and searched Danmofu for the Phoenix Crown. As Reslin continued hunting demons, he spotted a formidable Abyssal Knight force led by the prophesied Doom Lord, Aeon, the Eternal Chosen.

• Rayne gained the Titanium Extreme Golden Body, renamed his wings Titanium Gold Feathers, and transformed his Mithril Holy Sword into the Titanium Holy Sword.
• Rayne found that leveling up his new body required three thousand bars of electricity, so he postponed the upgrade and reviewed the progress of his other elements.
• Reslin destroyed the Abyssal Gate with a torrent of Spears of Light, causing the Fel Energy Vortex to dissipate and sunlight to return to Danmofu.

• Reslin spotted a five-hundred-strong Abyssal Knight order approaching Danmofu and recognized its leader as Aeon, the Eternal Chosen.

Reslin faced Akeon and the Evil Three-Headed Dragon, then used a True Mirror Image to distract them while he and his companions prepared to escape. As Akeon closed in on the group, Rayne arrived and struck Akeon and wounded the Dragon, leaving the battle unresolved.

• Akeon’s gaze nearly killed Reslin, then his Evil Three-Headed Dragon interrupted Reslin’s Teleportation and attacked him with Dragon breaths and a powerful sword strike.
• Akeon demanded to know where the Eye of Silian was and revealed he had let Reslin’s companions kill Dimath; Reslin fled instead of answering.
• Reslin’s True Mirror Image lured Akeon away while the original regrouped with Yizite, Bellac, Dawnsos, and Athina and began casting Mass Teleportation.
• Akeon noticed the group’s escape attempt and charged toward them, so Reslin exchanged places with his True Mirror Image and activated Rook Exchange.
• Rayne arrived in a burst of golden lightning, struck Akeon with Thunder God’s Hammer, and wounded the Evil Three-Headed Dragon with his Titanium Holy Sword.

• Rayne smashed the Void Dragon head of the Hell Three-Headed Dragon with his warhammer, but Akeon arrived and struck Rayne with the Regicide Sword.
• Rayne survived Akeon's attacks, then sent five Mirror Images to fight the Hell Three-Headed Dragon and three others to attack the Abyssal Knight Order.
• Akeon tried to stop Reslin and the others from teleporting, but Rayne and his Mirror Images disrupted his efforts until Mass Teleportation carried them away.
• Rayne fled across the Material Plane and other planes with Akeon pursuing him, then led him back to the New Continent.
• Akeon saw three Mirror Images slaughtering his Abyssal Knights, abandoned his pursuit of Rayne, and rushed to stop them as Rayne escaped.

Rayne used his Mirror Images to hold off Akeon while his companions escaped, then returned to Alber Bay with them. Reslin revealed that Rayne Augustus was his teacher, leaving the group stunned by Rayne’s reputation as Number One Under the Saint Soul.

• Akeon questioned Godwin about Rayne after the Mirror Images killed more than a hundred Abyssal Knights, and Godwin promised to investigate his identity.
• Rayne escaped through a Void Gate, exchanged places with Reslin, and rejoined Athina and the others in the Rockchis Mountains.
• Reslin led the group through repeated Mass Teleportations to Yizite’s home in Alber Bay, where the companions recovered from their escape.
• Reslin told the others that Rayne was his teacher, and Dawnsos identified him as Count of Glamorgan and Number One Under the Saint Soul.
• Dawnsos asked Reslin whether the group could thank Rayne in person.

Reslin and his companions met Oakland’s city lord, Bruce, who tried to intimidate them into silence about the Eye of Silian but backed down when Reslin revealed his connections and the team’s strength. Reslin then returned to Wizerland, where Ansiwodoss gave him the extracted Infernal Crown and other Spell Seals.

• Reslin agreed to meet Bruce, and Bruce revealed that he knew about Yizite and the group’s recent arrival in Alber Bay.
• Bruce threatened the group and demanded their loyalty, but Reslin challenged him to punch and revealed the Wezelan Emblem and Dimath’s Executioner’s Sword.
• Reslin warned Bruce that he would expose the Eye of Silian to Akeon if Bruce harmed him, and Bruce let the group leave.
• Back at Yizite’s courtyard, the group discussed Bruce’s threats, and Bellac suggested spreading the secret before Yizite argued against making an enemy of him.
• Reslin returned to Wizerland and received the Infernal Crown and several other Spell Seals from Ansiwodoss.

Reslin made the Infernal Crown permanent and solidified it into his soul, greatly strengthening his fire magic. The chapter ended with Yizite enduring a painful attempt to advance to the Saint Tier while Reslin and their teammates waited outside.

• Reslin showed Ansiwodoss the Balor's Spell Seals and said he expected to attempt the Soul Saint Wizard breakthrough within five years, with better than seventy percent odds.
• Reslin gave Ansiwodoss the Flame Body and Firestorm Spell Seals for Roni, then returned to his tower and prepared the Permanency Array.

• Yizite released the Balor's flesh-and-blood essence and cried out in agony as his teammates waited, ready to kill him if he lost control.

Reslin and his companions watched Yizite undergo a dangerous advancement to Saint Tier while the Brilliant Queen, Melandana, arrived and aided him. Reslin repaired the failing advancement array, and Yizite completed his transformation and announced his success.

• Melandana arrived at the hidden courtyard, revealed herself as the Brilliant Queen, and used Nature's Blessing to ease Yizite's suffering.
• Melandana praised the group for destroying the Abyssal Gate in Danmofu, and Reslin warned her that Akeon was expanding his power across the eastern plain.
• Yizite's advancement reached its critical stage as Fel Energy overwhelmed him and the damaged Rune Array began to fail.
• Reslin used ten Mirror Image clones to repair the Rune Array while Melandana maintained the magical Force Field.
• Yizite completed his transformation, reached Saint Tier, and told everyone that he had succeeded.
