The Avengers prepared to reunite at the compound in two days, though Chu Hang concealed the lingering threat of the void force within him.

Tony Stark and Bruce Banner completed a stable Pym Particle formula and Tony presented the Avengers’ plan to retrieve all six Infinity Stones across time. Scott Lang began a one-hour time-travel test, but his signal vanished into the quantum level and the team could not locate him.

• Tony and Banner finished producing a stable version of Pym Particles, with enough material for thirty round trips through time.
• Tony and Banner prepared twenty Space-Time GPS devices, and Tony tested a route to May 4, 2012, without traveling.

After Scott Lang successfully tested the Space-Time GPS, the Avengers planned teams to retrieve the Infinity Stones from the past. Chu Hang volunteered to collect the Reality Stone with Thor and then retrieve the Soul Law Stone from Vormir without a sacrifice.

He planned to confront the TVA if necessary and use the Void Force to overcome Vormir’s laws, while Natasha vowed to bring him back if he was in danger.

• Chu Hang explained that the Time Variance Authority monitored major timeline branches, described how it had tried to erase their timeline before, and identified He Who Remains as its source of power.

Chu Hang traveled into deep space to recruit Rocket for the Avengers’ plan to reverse the Snap, and Groot’s life energy helped him comprehend the law of life and suppress the Void Force. Back at the Avengers Compound, Chu Hang warned Steve that Nebula’s connection to her past self could expose the Time Heist to Thanos.

• Chu Hang located Rocket’s ship and asked Rocket and Groot to help the Avengers reverse the Snap.

When Loki escaped with the Tesseract, a Chu Hang from 2024 crossed into the 2012 timeline, recovered the Cosmic Cube, and returned it to Steve. Steve and the Avengers departed with the Stone, while Chu Hang stayed behind to handle the timeline and erased their memories of him.

On Vormir, Chu Hang rejected the Soul Stone’s demand for a sacrifice and convinced it to judge his soul instead. After gaining the Stone and copying its law, he reached Perfected Skyfather-level before teleporting back to 2023, unaware of what the distant presence watching him might do.

The Avengers’ snap brought back the vanished, while Chu Hang discovered his Conceptual Layer concept and began stabilizing his nine laws. Thanos arrived with his fleet to reclaim the stones, and the Avengers prepared to stall him while Chu Hang secluded himself for half an hour.

After the Snap was reversed, Chu Hang decided to leave Earth’s affairs to the Avengers and invited Wanda to join him as he pursued greater power. Before he could leave, the Time Variance Authority arrived to arrest everyone involved in changing the Sacred Timeline, and Chu Hang prepared to resist.

• Chu Hang told Steve and Tony that the Avengers could handle Earth’s recovery and instructed them to return the Infinity Stones to their original timelines.

• Chu Hang used nine laws to create a hidden meteorite base and spent half a month in seclusion without breaking through to the Cosmic Overlord-level.
• B-15 and two TVA agents arrived through a time door and explained that Loki had ended the pruning of branched timelines, while Kang variants began wreaking havoc.
