• Bai Chen warned the team that Ye Xishui’s arrival could disrupt the tournament and then went to Huo Yuhao’s room, where Du Busi confronted him.

Bai Chen gathered Du Busi, Xuan Zi, and Xu Jiawei to plan a preemptive strike against Ye Xishui, making Snow Empress the center of their strategy.

• Bai Chen realized Ye Xishui meant to detonate herself and shouted for the others to stop her.

After Ye Xishui’s apparent self-destruction, Bai Chen revealed that she could still revive but had lost all her Blood Souls, then prepared his allies for her revenge. He moved the Nine-Treasure Glazed Sect into the Icefire Yin Yang Well and began condensing his First Soul Core.

• Snow Empress and the other experts shielded Star Luo City from Ye Xishui’s self-destruction, but Bai Chen explained that Ye Xishui had escaped through her Radiant Phoenix’s Phoenix Nirvana ability.
• Bai Chen concluded that Ye Xishui had lost all her Blood Souls and urged his allies to strengthen their forces and hide from the Holy Spirit Cult’s expected retaliation.

Bai Chen condensed his First Soul Core in the Douluo II era, while his Douluo III self traveled to the Bloodgod Legion to hunt Abyssal Creatures and improve his cultivation. He arrived at the Legion with a letter of recommendation, surprising the guards by producing it from his spatial ability.

• The Snow Empress watched Bai Chen use his Bloodline Power to condense a black-gold Soul Core in his chest, and he successfully formed his First Soul Core.
• After returning from Dragon Valley, Bai Chen became a One-Word Battle Armor Master and Yellow-rank Fighter, then hunted Evil Soul Masters to advance his Evil God's Second Trial.
• Bai Chen killed eight Evil Soul Master Title Douluo and three Soul Douluo, while Zang Xin concealed his involvement and stopped him from pursuing more dangerous targets.
• Bai Chen refused to use humans as cultivation resources, so he asked Zang Xin to resume the plan to raise his cultivation by devouring Abyssal Creatures at the Bloodgod Legion.
• Five Bloodgod Legion guards stopped Bai Chen and demanded his recommendation letter, then stared in surprise when he produced it from his personal space.

Bai Chen began his Bloodgod Legion enlistment assessment, entering a simulated Abyss Passage where his Soul Power was restricted.

• A Bloodgod Legion officer examined Bai Chen's Tang Sect recommendation letter and led him to the enlistment assessment.
• Bai Chen chose an alloy iron sword despite the officer's advice to select a ranged weapon, then entered the simulated Abyss Passage with his Soul Power restricted.
• Bai Chen used his spiritual power and Purple Demon Eyes to see in the darkness and killed a Four-Clawed Bat with one sword strike.
• Bai Chen's Devouring Power absorbed the bat's remains and restored energy, confirming he could use the ability in the Abyss Passage.
• As Four-Clawed Bats multiplied and Six-Clawed Bats appeared, Bai Chen remained composed, and the officer concluded he had almost certainly passed and might break the Bloodgod Legion's assessment record.

Bai Chen defeated Ba An and Demon Charm during the Bloodgod Legion enlistment assessment, using his evil Martial Soul to overcome the Abyss Passage's restrictions and suppress the Abyssal Creatures.

• The officer stopped the assessment, returned Bai Chen to the glass enclosure, and said he would likely receive full marks and join the Bloodgod Legion.

Bai Chen joined the Bloodgod Legion, learned its costly rules, and accepted a low-interest military-merit loan from Fang Jun. At the cafeteria, a veteran tried to exploit him, and Bai Chen confronted him to establish his authority among the soldiers.

• A logistics subordinate registered Bai Chen and learned that the twelve-year-old was a level-fifty-four Soul King and a One-Word Battle Armor Master.
• Fang Jun showed Bai Chen around the camp, explained recruit training and military-merit rules, and offered him a loan at one percent monthly interest.
• Bai Chen accepted Fang Jun's loan and went with him to the cafeteria, where a burly veteran offered to lend him military merit at the customary rate of one hundred percent per month.
• Fang Jun stepped between Bai Chen and the veteran, and Bai Chen revealed that Fang Jun had offered him a far lower interest rate.
• The veteran accused Fang Jun of breaking their agreement, then shoved Bai Chen; Bai Chen held his ground, made the veteran stumble, and challenged him directly.

Bai Chen defeated Pan Zheng in a public fight, revealing the terrifying power of his Darkgolden Terrorclaw and earning fame and military merits. His strength and suspected connection to evil powers drew the Bloodgod Legion’s leadership into a meeting, where Fang Jun explained Bai Chen’s background and abilities.

• Pan Zheng challenged Bai Chen to a fight, and Fang Jun bet most of his military merits on Bai Chen’s victory.
• Bai Chen pierced Pan Zheng with a Darkness Spear, then frightened him into surrender by displaying his Darkgolden Terrorclaw.

• Fang Jun gave Bai Chen his Blood God Ring and transferred the promised thirty thousand military merits.

Bai Chen opened the Saint Artisan Forge in the Bloodgod Legion and proved his forging ability, attracting enormous demand and military merit. When the Legion’s leaders gathered to discuss him, Cao Dezhi revealed Divine Artisan Zhen Hua’s guarantee of Bai Chen’s innocence and threat to stop forging for the Legion if Bai Chen was harmed.

• Fang Jun advised Bai Chen to earn merit in the Special Operations Office before transferring to the Combat Forces as a major, and Bai Chen chose to remain in the office for more chances to fight Abyssal Creatures.
• Bai Chen asked Fang Jun to secure a top-tier forging room, paid its rent, and named it the Saint Artisan Forge.
• Bai Chen asked Fang Jun to publicize his Saint Artisan identity, and skeptical soldiers who visited the forge watched him work and spread word that his skill was genuine.
• The Bloodgod Legion’s sole sixth-rank blacksmith tested Bai Chen with a Soul Forging commission, confirmed his ability, and publicly vouched for him after paying one hundred thousand military merit.
• Bai Chen’s forge received commissions worth more than five hundred thousand military merit in one day, and news of his status reached the Legion’s leaders.
• At the leadership meeting, Cao Dezhi presented Zhen Hua’s letter declaring Bai Chen innocent of being an Evil Soul Master and warning that Zhen Hua would never forge for the Bloodgod Legion if Bai Chen were harmed.

Cao Dezhi and Zhang Huanyun investigated Bai Chen’s ability to devour Abyss energy and escorted him to the Abyss Passage to test it. They arrived at the battlefield, where Cao Dezhi praised Bai Chen’s flight speed and asked about his Battle Armor.

• Zhen Hua’s threat led the Bloodgod Legion’s leaders to agree to give Bai Chen special treatment and consider him for the Blood God Camp if his abilities were confirmed.
• Cao Dezhi and Zhang Huanyun visited Bai Chen’s forge and asked whether he could devour Abyss energy; Bai Chen said he had not tested it but agreed to an experiment.
• Cao Dezhi explained that Abyssal Creatures revived by sending their energy back to the Abyss Plane, and Bai Chen agreed to help test whether he could stop that process.
• Cao Dezhi and Zhang Huanyun escorted Bai Chen from the camp toward the Abyss Passage, and Bai Chen kept pace using his awakened wings.
• At the Abyss Passage, Cao Dezhi praised Bai Chen’s flight speed and asked whether his Battle Armor enhanced it; Bai Chen confirmed that it did.

Bai Chen tested his ability to devour Abyssal Creatures in increasingly dangerous passages and discovered that it could suppress their revival. When an Abyss Tide struck, he slaughtered the incoming creatures and rapidly grew stronger, reaching level 58 and gaining another blood-red Soul Ring as the battle continued.

• Cao Dezhi gave Bai Chen an Abyss Isolation Shield, and the three entered the Abyss Passage to test his devouring ability.
• Bai Chen killed Purple Centipedes in a C-level passage and devoured their energy, while Cao Dezhi and Zhang Huanyun confirmed that no residual energy returned to the Abyss Plane.
• Bai Chen repeated the test in B-level and A-level passages, devouring each Abyssal Creature without difficulty.
• Bai Chen recognized an approaching Abyss Tide, and Zhang Huanyun assigned Cao Dezhi to protect him while Bai Chen tested the limits of his power.
• Bai Chen expanded his Evil God Domain and charged into the tide, suppressing, killing, and devouring the Abyssal Creatures before Zhang Huanyun could intervene.
• As Bai Chen fought for an hour and absorbed the tide's energy, his Soul Power rose from level 55 to level 58 and another blood-red Soul Ring appeared.

Bai Chen survived an Abyss Monarch’s attack, reached the Spirit Domain Realm, and revealed two Time Reversal abilities, including a once-a-day automatic return from death. After the Abyss Tide ended, Cao Dezhi said the successful test of Bai Chen’s devouring ability meant it was time to decide his treatment.

• Bai Chen reached level sixty-three and stopped an Abyss Monarch’s finger with Time Stasis before severing it.
• The Evil God's Godhood Seed protected Bai Chen’s Spiritual Sea, helping him break through to the Spirit Domain Realm and rise to level sixty-five.
• The Abyss Monarch withdrew after its attacks failed, and the Abyss Tide ended.
• Zhang Huanyun reprimanded Bai Chen for risking himself, then Cao Dezhi and Zhang Huanyun asked how he had protected himself.
• Bai Chen explained that one Time Reversal ability rewound an individual by up to ten seconds, while the other sent the world back one second and could activate automatically when he first died each day.
• Cao Dezhi concluded that the experiment had confirmed Bai Chen’s devouring ability worked on Abyssal Creatures and said the Bloodgod Legion should finalize his treatment.

After Bai Chen demonstrated that he could suppress Abyssal Creatures and grow by devouring Abyss energy, Cao Dezhi brought him to the Blood God Camp, where his performance led the members to consider him as a recruit. Bai Chen began a spar with Blood Nine, and the chapter left them facing off after Blood Nine unleashed his strongest abilities.

• Cao Dezhi brought Bai Chen into the Blood God Camp and introduced him to Blood Three and Blood Seven, who supported his joining.
• Blood Nine arrived and questioned whether Bai Chen qualified, so Bai Chen asked him to spar.
• Blood Two entered, encouraged Bai Chen, and warned Blood Nine not to lose.
• In the combat room, Bai Chen released his Soul Rings and blocked Blood Nine's Snake Lance with his Darkgolden Terrorclaw while attacking with his Tail Hook.
• Blood Nine used his Martial Soul Avatar, equipped his Three-Character Battle Armor, and sent distorted light sweeping toward Bai Chen.

Bai Chen defeated Blood Nine by using his Time Pause Domain, earned promotion to colonel, and began pursuing information about the Holy Spirit Cult. He then spent his amassed six hundred thousand military merits on rare resources at the Bloodgod Legion exchange center.

• Bai Chen suppressed Blood Nine with his Evil God Domain and attacks, then used his Time Pause Domain to stop the snakes and strike Blood Nine, winning the spar.
• Cao Dezhi explained Bai Chen's mental domain, while Blood Two told Blood Nine not to lose so badly again; Cao Dezhi reserved Bai Chen's Blood God position and promoted him to colonel.
• Bai Chen asked Zhang Huanyun for intelligence on the Holy Spirit Cult's Four Heavenly Kings, and Zhang Huanyun agreed to help.
• Bai Chen's rapid promotion and six hundred thousand military merits left Fang Jun stunned and frustrated.
• Bai Chen visited the military merit exchange center, bought rare metals, and browsed the medicinal herbs and soul beasts sections.

Bai Chen studied intelligence on the Holy Spirit Cult’s Four Heavenly Kings and weighed which one to target. Afterward, he secluded himself to condense an Evil Attribute Soul Core, leaving him better able to wield his Ultimate Evil Power.

• Bai Chen spent four hundred thousand military merits on spiritual medicines, then learned from Cao Dezhi that the Abyss had grown quiet after the last Abyss Tide.
• Zhang Huanyun gave Bai Chen classified files on the Dark Blood Demon, the Dark Hummingbird, the Dark Phoenix, and the unidentified fourth Heavenly King.
• Bai Chen identified Nanali as the concealed fourth Heavenly King and decided the Dark Hummingbird would be the best target, though he kept his knowledge to himself.
• Bai Chen told Zhang Huanyun that his past encounter with Ha Luosa gave him a personal history with the Holy Spirit Cult.
• Bai Chen shut down his forge temporarily, entered seclusion, and quickly condensed an Evil Attribute Soul Core in his dantian.

Bai Chen considered where to condense his next Soul Core, while the Abyssal rulers gathered to discuss the threat he posed. The Abyssal Sage King ordered the invasion accelerated, leaving the Spirit Emperor eager to lead the coming war.

• Bai Chen decided that his next Soul Core should likely carry the Time Attribute and be condensed at his brow, but he could not choose an attribute for the core in his chest.
• The Black Empress recalled how Bai Chen wounded her source power and how the Divine Sense in his Spiritual Sea nearly devoured her spiritual power.
• The Black Empress warned the Spirit Emperor and Abyssal Monarchs that Bai Chen was a young human with Limit Douluo-level combat strength against Abyssal Creatures and the power to disrupt their revival.
• The Abyssal Sage King ordered the Abyss Plane to forcibly break the seal and told the Spirit Emperor to have the Holy Spirit Cult open a breach within three months.
• The Spirit Emperor ordered the Abyss Monarchs to prepare for the invasion and rejoiced at the chance to lead the war and attain God Level.

Bai Chen learned that the Federation had sent powerful figures to protect him, while the Holy Spirit Cult tampered with the Abyss seal and Nether Emperor Harosa vowed to kill him. The Second Abyss War began as a massive tide surged through the main passage, leaving a mecha captain's failed self-destruction unexplained.

• Guan Yue, Zang Xin, Ya Li, and Qian Gu Qingfeng arrived at the Bloodgod Legion to protect Bai Chen, and they judged him not to be an Evil Soul Master.
• A piercing alarm sounded, and the four powerhouses rushed toward the Abyss Passage.
• Harosa and the Holy Spirit Cult tampered with the seal, planning to weaken both the Federation and the Abyss Plane while preserving their own forces.
• Harosa identified Bai Chen as his target and vowed not to let him escape again.
• An enormous tide of Abyssal Creatures surged through the main passage despite the Bloodgod Legion's weapons and mecha.
• A stationed mecha captain activated his self-destruct sequence, but the sequence inexplicably returned to an inactive state.

Bai Chen and the arriving experts fought back an Abyssal invasion, but Scythe Emperor, a powerful assassin from the fifth Abyss layer, targeted him. After the Abyssal Evil Scythes broke toward the passage exit, Bai Chen coordinated the defenders and stopped them long enough for Guan Yue to destroy them, while Scythe Emperor struck at him again.

• Bai Chen arrived at the Abyss Passage and used his Evil God Domain to halt the central Abyssal advance as Zang Xin, Guan Yue, Ya Li, and Qian Gu Qingfeng joined the battle.
• Scythe Emperor emerged from a spatial crack and attacked Bai Chen, but the gathered experts wounded him and Guan Yue blocked his attempt to strike Bai Chen again.
• Bai Chen identified Scythe Emperor and warned the others that the fifth-layer emperor was a deadly speed specialist, while they realized the Bloodgod Legion's base could not send reinforcements.
• Dozens of Abyssal Evil Scythes destroyed mechas and surged toward the passage exit, so Bai Chen assigned roles to the experts and pursued them.
• Bai Chen used his Time Pause Domain to immobilize the Abyssal Evil Scythes, allowing Guan Yue to pierce through them with a spear attack.
• Scythe Emperor appeared behind Bai Chen and raised his scythes to attack him again.
