Background

Lu Chen began as a transmigrator burdened by zero Innate Soul Power. Seeking a way to change his circumstances, he used the System to establish three rankings: the Strongest Human Monologue, Strongest Spirit, and Strongest Spirit Beast lists. The System projected the Heavenly Ranking across the sky, turning Lu Chen into the unseen force behind opportunities that could alter the fate of those ranked. 1

Though reluctant to fill the final position himself, Lu Chen eventually placed first on the Strongest Human Monologue Ranking. His revealed innate talents, domains, self-created spirit skills, and implied divine throne caused continent-wide alarm. 46

His power grew through repeated ranking rewards, God-Bestowed Spirit Rings, Immortal Herbs, spirit bones, divine artifacts, and System skills. By the conflict over the Dragon Slaying Saber, he had gathered powerful subordinates and could contest figures including Qian Daoliu, Tang Chen, Di Tian, and the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King. 171 172

After defeating the Asura God, God of Evil, and God of Destruction during a temporary God King trial, Lu Chen compelled the God Realm’s surrender. He subsequently granted Godhoods to human Soul Masters and became a Level 3 God. 258
