Ji Xinghuo traveled through the stargate to Nether Abyss Star and learned how the Crystalline Elves kept the planet and its visitors secure. After resisting a mental restriction that was meant to keep him from revealing its secrets, he read the official information and learned what Nether Abyss Star was really like.

• Ji Xinghuo joined more than a hundred Eternal Day Guardians and passed through Light Radiance Peak’s heavily guarded stargate.

Ji Xinghuo traveled into Nether Abyss Star’s dangerous wilderness and narrowly escaped a Spore Bat swarm and Sawtooth Mantises by reaching an underground shelter. After the Crystalline Elves’ orbital cannons destroyed many of the bats, he collected Spirit Source Energy, assessed his low merit, and set out again at dawn.

• Ji Xinghuo left the concealed mountain exit and crossed the forest, sensing that something was watching him despite finding no enemies.
• As night approached, Ji Xinghuo spotted a massive Spore Bat swarm and ran toward an underground shelter, only to find Sawtooth Mantises blocking his route.
• Ji Xinghuo shot through the Sawtooth Mantises, then sent Azure Rainbow to hold back the monsters while he entered the shelter and sealed its gate.
• The Spore Bats flooded the cave and self-destructed, but Ji Xinghuo remained safe underground as the Crystalline Elves’ orbital laser cannons bombarded the swarm.
• Ji Xinghuo gained about 5,500 Spirit Source Energy but only 5 merit, then slept in the shelter and left at dawn to continue exploring.

Ji Xinghuo lured thousands of Nether Abyss Star monsters into a huge pursuit, then stopped in a clearing and unleashed his flying swords and Crystal Light Gun against the closing horde. The battle began as monsters surrounded him.

• Ji Xinghuo killed more than forty Wolf Soul Wood, gained two merit points, and found that most of their corpses had no Ability Seeds.

• Ji Xinghuo fled into a clearing, activated Super-Frequency Thinking, sent twelve flying swords at the charging Sawtooth Mantises, and fired his Crystal Light Gun.

Ji Xinghuo fought off a vast monster horde on Nether Abyss Star, unleashing his self-developed Ionization Storm when his defenses were close to collapsing. He escaped into the air as the Crystalline Elves’ Turbine Laser Cannons obliterated the remaining monsters, and he discovered that the bombardment had greatly increased his Spirit Source Energy and Eternal Day Merit.

• Ji Xinghuo used sword light and the Crystal Light Gun to slaughter hundreds of monsters as the horde surrounded him, while his Spirit Source Energy and Eternal Day Merit rose.
• Ji Xinghuo refused the Crystalline Elves’ offer of fire support and used grenades to hold off diving Spore Bats as his Stellar Force dwindled.
• Ji Xinghuo unleashed an Ionization Storm that incinerated monsters within its range, then used a second, smaller storm to escape the encroaching horde by flying into the sky.

• Ji Xinghuo landed beside the resulting craters and found that his Spirit Source Energy had risen above 18,000 points and his Eternal Day Merit had surged.

Ji Xinghuo gathered and destroyed thousands of monsters on Nether Abyss Star, earning 277 Eternal Day Merit points and over 25,000 Spirit Source Energy. In the shelter, he upgraded Titanium Cobalt Dragon Blood to Level Four, awakened Dragon Frenzy, and began upgrading Symbiotic Resonance.

Ji Xinghuo discovered that monsters across the Bloody Highlands had begun avoiding him and fighting with unusual coordination, then found that ten Poison Thorn Wyverns and their Fungus Giant riders had come after him in a Level 1 Area. After clearing the pursuing Membrane Leaf Lacewings, he prepared to fight the wyverns himself.

He consigned the Fungus Giant Avatar Ability Seed, and its price quickly climbed past 45 Aether Crystals.
