Arc 28The King and the Rift
Fang Cheng defeated Famon, Dracula, Ophi, and the other contenders, claimed the throne, and learned more about his mother's final mission. After returning to Machine City, he joined Li Yu at the Seabed Rift, where the Evil God's power unleashed a growing monster assault on the Undersea Base.
- Fang Cheng killed Famon, absorbed his mother's left thigh, and crossed the sea to find a Ghost Ship and the Guide Stone leading to the desert core area.
- Fang Cheng defeated the monsters and rivals guarding the Guide Stones, then faced Ophi, Dracula, and Ghost Rider for the Throne of the Undead.
- Fang Cheng defeated War Angel and Dracula, became King of the Undead, and saw memories of his mother's fight with an Evil God and the door beneath the sea.
- Fang Cheng returned to the surface, searched for Pestilence Knight Plate, and settled tensions with the women in Machine City while preparing to confront the missing Apocalypse Knight.
- Li Yu took Fang Cheng to the Seabed Rift, where Wang Mingde explained that its door leaked Evil God's power and that an unknown force had driven the Evil God back fifteen years earlier.
- Fang Cheng agreed to lead the fight if the Evil God descended and to help evacuate scholars and technical personnel if Earth could not be saved, in exchange for two parts of his mother's body.
- The Rift's black power surged and monsters overwhelmed the Undersea Base's outer defenses, while Li Jianbin and Wang Mingde fought the horde and Li Yu leaped through the observation window to meet a third Disaster-Class monster.
