After tremors drove Yang Yu’s team deeper into the Abyss Dungeon, they encountered a hostile team from Neon Country that planned to kill Professionals from other nations and steal their equipment. Yang Yu recognized them as a threat to his First Job Transfer Quest and prepared to attack.

• Yang Yu realized the Neon Country team could jeopardize his quest, and he signaled his companions to prepare for an attack.

• Yang Yu severed Sato’s arm and threatened his knee until Sato revealed that Abe no Seimei was a Level 46 SSS-rank Great Onmyoji with powerful Shikigami and no other teammates.

• Yang Yu told the women they had to reach the Final Boss’s chamber before Abe no Seimei and kill him.

After defeating Sato’s group, Yang Yu and the three women collected their equipment and pursued Abe no Seimei through the passage toward the Final Boss. They followed the trail of his Shikigami’s destruction, but a hidden magic array suddenly engulfed Yang Yu in flames.

• Yang Yu warned the women to stay close and led them into the passage despite suspecting a trap.
• A crimson magic array ignited beneath Yang Yu and engulfed him in flames as the three women cried out.

Yang Yu destroyed Abe no Seimei’s hidden traps by carving a path through the passage with repeated sword strikes, leading his group to the Final Boss’s hall. There they found Lucifer’s Mythical-rank projection battling an endless horde of ghosts, with her HP slowly falling.

• Yang Yu survived a fire trap, healed his superficial burns, and recognized the lingering magic as evidence that Abe no Seimei had planted it.
• Yang Yu ordered the three women to follow closely and blasted the passage ahead to destroy hidden traps.
• Yang Yu and the women reached a partly open stone door and saw a vast hall beyond it.
• The group found Lucifer’s Level 30 Mythical-rank projection, whose HP was steadily declining as she fought ghosts that kept reappearing from a magic array.

Yang Yu and his companions discovered that Abe no Seimei could avoid harm while any of his Shikigami remained, and Yang Yu weighed the risks of using his strongest skill. He entered the hall alone and unleashed Myriad Swords Return to Origin, engulfing the battlefield as the fight began.

• Su Muyu spotted Abe no Seimei controlling the summoning arrays while Lucifer fought his Shikigami.
• Abe no Seimei revealed that his surviving Shikigami protected him and declared his intention to make Lucifer one of his summons.
• Yang Yu realized that killing every Shikigami might expose Abe no Seimei, but hesitated to use Sword Intent Liberation in case Abe survived and resummoned them.

• Yang Yu entered the hall, activated Iron Will and Bloodthirsty Battle Intent, then unleashed Myriad Swords Return to Origin across the battlefield.

Yang Yu shattered Abe no Seimei’s ghost array and fought Yamata no Orochi, impressing Lucifer with his strength despite not having completed his first job transfer. Lucifer intervened by blessing Yang Yu with a powerful buff, leaving Abe no Seimei furious as the battle continued.

• Yang Yu’s Sword Qi destroyed Abe no Seimei’s Hundred Ghosts Night Parade Array and struck Lucifer for critical damage.

• Lucifer revealed that Yang Yu had not yet entered the professional ranks and criticized Abe no Seimei for bullying a newcomer.
• Lucifer gave Yang Yu a blessing that increased his Strength by 1,000 points for an hour, enraging Abe no Seimei.

Yang Yu used Lucifer's Buffs and his swordsmanship to overwhelm Abe no Seimei's Yamata no Orochi. After evading a renewed assault from Shikigami and the snake's remaining heads, he cut down a sixth head.

• Yamata no Orochi's heads attacked Yang Yu, but he dodged them and severed one with Blade Draw Slash.
• Abe no Seimei tried to bind Yang Yu with a Soul-Binding Curse, but Iron Will made him immune to the control effect.
• Lucifer explained that she had equalized the fighters' strength so the battle would not be boring, while Yang Yu cut off three more heads.
• Abe no Seimei spent his essence blood to summon stronger Shikigami, and Yamata no Orochi's remaining four heads attacked Yang Yu.
• Yang Yu escaped the encirclement with Phantom Strike and cut off another head, leaving only two of Yamata no Orochi's eight heads.

Yang Yu fought Abe no Seimei’s Shikigami, cutting down Yamata no Orochi and weakening the ghost army with War Cry. He then turned his attention to Fallen Angel Lucifer’s Light Swords, wondering if he could wield them with Myriad Swords Return to Origin.

• Abe no Seimei sent his Shikigami against Yang Yu, but Yang Yu used Phantom Strike to evade the assault and create a phantom behind Abe no Seimei.

• Yang Yu severed Yamata no Orochi’s final two heads, killing the Legendary-grade Shikigami.
• Yang Yu used War Cry to weaken the ghost Shikigami and drive them into a berserk state that prevented them from using skills, then cut them down.
• Yang Yu considered whether Myriad Swords Return to Origin could turn Lucifer’s Light Swords into weapons he could use.

Yang Yu combined his Sword Qi with Lucifer’s Light Swords to destroy Abe no Seimei’s Shikigami, forcing the Onmyoji to summon the Amaterasu Omikami Projection. The giant deity’s first slash nearly split the hall, but Yang Yu evaded it, leaving the battle unresolved.

• Yang Yu drew over a hundred of Lucifer’s Light Swords into his Sword Qi and unleashed the combined torrent, purifying Abe no Seimei’s Shikigami.

• Abe no Seimei turned the giant projection toward Yang Yu and warned that he could not dodge forever.

Yang Yu exploited the pain feedback from Abe no Seimei’s Amaterasu Omikami Projection but struggled to break through its armor. With Lucifer’s Light Swords, he destroyed the projection and struck at Abe no Seimei, whose life-saving shield blocked the lethal blow before shattering.

• Yang Yu discovered that attacks on Amaterasu Omikami’s Projection caused Abe no Seimei to feel the pain, and he repeatedly slashed the projection while dodging its attacks.
• Yang Yu hesitated to use Sword Intent Liberation because of its permanent cost, while Lucifer taunted Abe no Seimei and offered to help.

• Yang Yu followed up with Phantom Strike, but Abe no Seimei’s life-saving shield blocked the sword and shattered.

Yang Yu cornered Abe no Seimei and broke through his many protective treasures, but Abe no Seimei survived Yang Yu’s attacks with a forbidden skill before losing his escape attempt. The chapter left Abe no Seimei trapped and helpless as Yang Yu continued attacking.

• Abe no Seimei begged Yang Yu to spare him and threatened that Neon Country would revive him and hunt Yang Yu, but Yang Yu continued slashing through his protective talismans.
• Abe no Seimei used “Spirit Word: Returning Dust” for a fatal attack, but Yang Yu’s Iron Will skill blocked it.
• Yang Yu resumed attacking Abe no Seimei with purple-black Sword Qi after Abe no Seimei lost the will to fight.
• Abe no Seimei tore a Dungeon Escape Scroll, but it failed and vanished without teleporting him.

Yang Yu killed Abe no Seimei after Lucifer blocked his escape, but Abe no Seimei’s death curse exposed Yang Yu’s location to him for a year and promised him a share of Yang Yu’s attributes if he killed him. Yang Yu looted Abe no Seimei and then openly admitted to Lucifer that he wanted her drops, leaving her amused by his nerve.

• Lucifer admitted that she had sealed the space, preventing Abe no Seimei from escaping with his scroll.
• Yang Yu severed Abe no Seimei’s arm and killed him after he refused to hand over his equipment.

• Yang Yu considered the danger of the curse, decided to seek Leng Feng’s help later, and looted Abe no Seimei’s equipment.
• Lucifer teased Yang Yu for eyeing her drops, and Yang Yu openly admitted that he wanted them.

Yang Yu struck Lucifer with his strongest attack, defeated her, and claimed the treasure chest as the Abyss difficulty Dungeon collapsed. He escaped with Jiang Shuyue and the Su Sisters, cleared his First Job Promotion Mission, and left Zhao Tianheng stunned.

• Lucifer agreed to create thousands of Light Swords after Yang Yu asked for more before showing her his strongest attack.
• Yang Yu activated his buffs and transformation, then hit Lucifer with Sword Intent Liberation and Return to Origin for over thirty-one million damage.

• Yang Yu looted the chest, grabbed Jiang Shuyue and the Su Sisters, and escaped the Dungeon with them.
• The group emerged on Raging Wind Plateau, where the Abyss Rift vanished and System prompts announced Yang Yu had cleared the Dungeon and completed his First Job Promotion Mission.
• Zhao Tianheng and his companions saw the group emerge alive and stared in disbelief.

After completing their First Job Transfer Quests, Su Muyu’s profession advanced to SS-rank, while Yang Yu used the Light World Source Core to become an S-rank Radiant Sword Saint. Stored experience then raised Yang Yu to Level 35, leaving him amazed by his new power and facing a billion experience points for his next level.

• Su Muyu’s profession advanced to SS-rank Finality Witch, and she excitedly thanked Yang Yu with a kiss.
• Zhao Tianheng watched the girls’ transformations and worried that he might not place among the province’s top three.

After defeating Lucifer’s projection, Yang Yu discovered that he had gained the Wheel of Judgment skill and awakened his Abyssal Demon Eye Sword into a powerful growth-type Legendary weapon. He escaped the three girls’ affectionate attention and turned to examine another item from the Rainbow Chest.

• Yang Yu inspected Wheel of Judgment, a skill that summoned ten pursuing Light Swords, and wondered whether Lucifer had used it against Abe no Seimei.
• Yang Yu examined his awakened Abyssal Demon Eye Sword and learned that it had gained 5000 physical attack, new combat effects, and the ability to gain attack power from different monster kills.

• Yang Yu finally broke free from the three girls and retrieved a crystal-clear ring from his Storage Space for inspection.

Yang Yu equipped the Mythical Rank [Proof of the Unique], gaining immunity to mortal Causality-type attacks while saving its set-integration effect for a stronger set. After inspecting Abe no Seimei’s spoils, Yang Yu and his group drew a crowd whose shock and greed turned toward him.

• Yang Yu considered integrating the Wild Boar King Set into [Proof of the Unique] but decided to wait for a stronger set with a comparable lifesaving effect.
• Yang Yu put on [Proof of the Unique] and felt reassured that its [Unique] effect would protect him from mortal Causality-type attacks.

• A crowd gathered around Yang Yu’s group of four, reacting to their survival of the Abyss difficulty Dungeon and Yang Yu’s five-level increase.
• Some onlookers grew greedy over the group’s possible rewards, while others warned them against attacking with Gold-rank Professionals nearby and called for Yang Yu to be identified.
