Qin Yuan led Mo Fan, Zhao Manyan, Mios, Shreif, and Said toward Khufu's Pyramid, with Shreif agreeing to guide them to the Gate of the Underworld. He revealed that Khufu had nearly died in Huaxia months earlier, shocking the former Egyptian National Government Team members as they continued toward the pyramid.

Mo Fan and Zhao Manyan joined Qin Yuan and Shreif on a mission to enter Pharaoh Khufu's Pyramid, hoping to find a chance to advance to Archmage. After Qin Yuan masked the group's living aura and drew them through the Gray Resentment Storm, Heidi asked whether Apasi was safe in the Space-Time Realm.

Qin Yuan and his companions entered Khufu’s pyramid and encountered its Tomb Executioners while searching for the Gate of the Underworld. Shreif said the gate was connected to the Sea of Bitterness and shared a clue pointing toward a dark far shore.

• Qin Yuan and Heidi arrived in a vast, distorted tomb chamber after passing through the Gray Resentment Storm.
• Qin Yuan checked in at Khufu’s Pyramid and received the Space Ancestral Talisman, the Seven-Colored Heaven-Swallowing Python Bloodline, and the Egg of the Four Evils.
• Zhao Manyan lit the chamber, revealing Tomb Executioners, and Shreif explained that they harvested vengeful spirits to strengthen the pharaohs.
• Qin Yuan asked Shreif where the Gate of the Underworld was, and Shreif linked it to the Sea of Bitterness and a dark far shore associated with immortality.

Qin Yuan and the others learned how to locate the Gate of the Underworld, then fought their way through a swarm of Underworld Warriors. They escaped toward the upper levels while Qin Yuan concealed his true power to avoid alerting Pharaoh Khufu.

• Shreif explained that Khufu's Day-Night Indicator could reveal Void Island in the Red Sea, the main entrance to the underworld, while the pyramid served as a back door.
• Qin Yuan told Heidi that the underworld was an independent branch of the Dark Plane and considered merging it with his Space-Time Realm and the Sha Abyss.
• More than a hundred Underworld Warriors emerged from four doors and attacked Qin Yuan's group, while waves of evil qi blades cut down the Tomb Executioners.
• Shreif urged the group to choose a door and fight toward the upper levels as more Underworld Warriors approached.
• Qin Yuan summoned the Dark Execution Ground, whose scythe-wielding creatures cut through the warriors, and assigned Heidi to help defend the rear.
• Qin Yuan and the others fought toward the nearest passage while he avoided using magic that might reveal his presence to Pharaoh Khufu.

Qin Yuan’s group fought through the Underworld Warriors in an apparently endless passage while collecting Demon Spirit Essences. Heidi discovered that they were trapped in a loop-shaped space and identified the exit as one of its four spatial junctions.

• Qin Yuan used his Blue Silver Vines to clear a path through the Underworld Warriors as the group followed.
• Mo Fan and the others began hunting the Underworld Warriors themselves to collect Demonic Beast Residual Souls and Demon Spirit Essences, while Qin Yuan supplied Heidi with essences.
• Shreif studied the Pyramid and realized the group had entered a special space that made the passage seem endless.
• Qin Yuan asked Heidi to inspect the space, and she determined that they were walking around a square loop with four junctions, one of which led to the exit.

Mo Fan’s group escaped the passage and fought their way through a hall guarded by Linzhou Hellhounds, which Qin Yuan killed with ease. Shreif led them to a sealed mummy tomb chamber where a sarcophagus hung from a spider’s silk, but they could find no way onward.

• Heidi shattered a spatial grafting point, allowing the group to leave the passage and enter a grand hall.
• Shreif identified the hall as a place where offerings were made to the dog god, and several Linzhou Hellhounds surrounded the group.
• Qin Yuan killed the hellhounds with dark spears, collected a Great Commander-level Demon Spirit Essence, and warned Said off from taking it.
• Shreif led the group to a vast triangular tomb chamber, where a White-Fronted Huntsman Spider guarded a sarcophagus suspended from its silk.
• Qin Yuan noticed the chamber had no visible exit, and Shreif insisted they had found the correct route but had not yet discovered the way forward.

Qin Yuan and the others moved through the Pyramid’s burial chambers, avoiding the mummies as Shreif searched for a pattern. They reached a coffin sealed with Immortal Vine, and Shreif warned that it contained a powerful Evil Child feared by Pharaoh Khufu.

• Qin Yuan shattered a suspended coffin, revealing a speaking Monarch-level mummy, but the group fled through a door Shreif found instead of fighting it.
• Qin Yuan broke open another coffin and released a headless mummy, which chased the group until it stopped at the chamber doorway.
• The group entered a chamber with no exit and found Zhao Manyan unable to break the Immortal Vine sealing a small coffin.
• Shreif stopped Zhao Manyan and explained that ancient texts identified the creature inside as an Evil Child that had nearly killed Pharaoh Khufu and later became a ghost.

Qin Yuan and the others learned that reaching Pharaoh Khufu’s palace required killing tomb guardians and choosing the correct doors. After leaving the Evil Child’s coffin, they found themselves in a new burial chamber, where Qin Yuan killed a weak mummy.

• Qin Yuan warned the group that the Evil Child was a powerful ghost whose possession abilities made it dangerous, so they chose not to open its coffin.
• Shreif explained that they needed to follow the order of spiders, scorpions, snakes, and eagles through the tomb chambers to reach Pharaoh Khufu’s palace.
• Qin Yuan led the group back, but they entered a new, empty burial chamber instead of the one they had left.
• Shreif said they needed to kill the mummy and take the door to the left of the tombstone to return to the first chamber.
• Qin Yuan destroyed the tombstone, and when the weak mummy emerged, he smashed it to pieces.

Qin Yuan killed the Strategist Mummy and the group learned that the remaining burial chambers held stronger threats. They paused while Shreif studied the routes, and Mu Bai and Mo Fan climbed up to collect the spiders’ essence and organs.

• The group followed Shreif through a tomb door and returned to the chamber with the White-Fronted Huntsman Spider and the waiting Strategist Mummy.

• Shreif identified the next chamber as the scorpion route and warned that the Strategist Mummy had been the weakest of four guardians.
• Qin Yuan chose to wait while Shreif studied the burial chambers, and the group rested in the chamber.
• Mu Bai discovered something unusual about the spiders, then joined Mo Fan in climbing up to take their essence, hearts, and lungs.

• Shreif led the group through burial chambers, avoiding Great Monarch creatures and fighting weaker ones during their half-month journey.
• The group climbed the enormous staircase toward Pharaoh Khufu’s Sleeping Quarters and spotted the Underworld marker at the top.
• Qin Yuan stopped the others and defeated the Dark Sword Master, destroying it and consuming its dark-powered sword.
• Shreif calculated the marker’s correct scale for pointing toward Void Island in the Red Sea.
• Qin Yuan rotated the Underworld marker to Shreif’s indicated line, causing it to emit a ghostly blue light.

Qin Yuan and Heidi left to lead the Sha Abyss army into the Underworld after the Underworld gates opened. The Underworld’s Ming Hui lit the sky over Cairo, and Haken learned that the group had escaped safely as the city prepared to honor them.

• Qin Yuan sensed that the Underworld had opened and ordered Jiu You to prepare the Sha Abyss army.

• Fenner confirmed that Qin Yuan, Heidi, and the others were safe, and Haken ordered Cairo to welcome and reward them.
• Mo Fan and the others returned to Cairo and received the city’s best treatment.

• Qin Yuan took Heidi to the Spirit Lake, where they became intimate as Yi Zhi Sha and other women joined them.
• Apasi explored the Space-Time Plane, found Qin Yuan’s Seven-Colored Heaven-Swallowing Python Bloodline, and resisted the urge to steal it.

• Apasi clung to Qin Yuan and worried that Ling Ling might dislike her, while Heidi wondered how Apasi would react when Qin Yuan revealed his intentions.
