• Their collective faith gathers around Huo Yuhao and the Holy Spirit Seven Heroes, granting them divine power. Tang San realizes Huo Yuhao has allowed the crisis to reach this point so that this immense faith can emerge.
• Meng Hongchen is the first to answer the call. Her poison attacks devastate Abyss forces, but she is outnumbered by ten level-one-hundred fighters controlled by the Abyss Monarch.

• Gu Quan becomes the fourth god and wipes out the remaining invaders in the Peerless World by reviving fallen enemies and detonating them. The Abyss Monarch responds with overwhelming force, killing all four heroes in one attack.

• Escalation and reversal: Each new divine power seems to shift the battle, but the Abyss Monarch’s overwhelming strength repeatedly restores despair—until time itself is reversed.
• Power versus resilience: The chapter contrasts the Monarch’s raw strength with the heroes’ combined abilities and Fang Yuan’s reality-defying intervention.

Plot points and events

• In the Peerless World, five of the Holy Spirit Seven Heroes—Fang Yuan, Gu Quan, Zhang Lexuan, Meng Hongchen, and Xiao Hongchen—attack the Abyss Monarch together. Their coordinated assault damages him, but his Supreme God King body proves nearly impervious.
• Fang Yuan uses the Spring and Autumn Cicada and the Time Law to stop time. Because the Abyss Monarch is inside their world and subject to its suppression, the heroes can hold him still—but only briefly. Their attacks cannot finish him, and Fang Yuan estimates he can maintain the stop for just three more seconds.
• The heroes call on their “Second Sister,” Jin Ruir. Rejecting Huo Yuhao’s warning that an early ascension could limit her potential, she draws faith from Soul Beasts across all three worlds and becomes the God of Destiny. Her Fate Spear pierces the Abyss Monarch’s chest with an incurable wound.
• As the Abyss Monarch begins to decay, Tang San has Oscar copy him and Ning Rongrong amplify the copy. The Abyss Monarch and his duplicate overwhelm the six heroes, leaving them gravely wounded and apparently doomed.
• Huo Yuhao finally appears. A single slash from the Human Emperor Tower destroys both Abyss Monarchs. He and his immense Soul Body absorb the faith gathering across the Three Realms, beginning the Seven Heroes’ effort to forge their own godhood through faith.

Character developments and interactions

• Fang Yuan leads the heroes’ assault and demonstrates how the world’s favor lets his time-stop restrain even a Supreme God King. His limited divine power, however, makes clear that his ability alone cannot win the battle.
• Jin Ruir chooses to sacrifice some future potential to save her companions. Her ascension reveals her command of destiny and earns a major debt from Tang Wulin, who promises to repay it if Huo Yuhao protects the Dragon King World.
• Huo Yuhao initially holds back, believing Jin Ruir’s early emergence will cap her potential, but ultimately intervenes when the heroes are about to die. His arrival shifts the battle decisively.
• Tang San responds to the threat by arranging the Abyss Monarch’s duplication and retreat, while the First Generation Shrek Seven Monsters act on his instructions.
• The heroes’ teamwork—Gu Quan enduring attacks, Zhang Lexuan breaking defenses, Meng Hongchen poisoning the enemy, and Xiao Hongchen providing heavy firepower—shows both their coordination and the limits of their combined strength against a Supreme God King.

Significant themes

• Worlds and divine power: The heroes exploit their home world’s suppression of outsiders to challenge a stronger enemy.
• Faith and self-forged divinity: Power of Faith becomes a means for the Seven Heroes to create godhood rather than depend on established divine ranks.

• Tang San uses the Abyss World’s origin to establish a new world and lures the damaged soul toward him, claiming Huo cannot follow.

His attack pierces both the Abyss Monarch’s soul and Tang San’s Asura True Body.

• Huo Yuhao’s achievements earn him the title Lord of the Three Realms and a self-conferred Godhood. The faith of the three worlds gathers around him, completing and magnifying his divine power.

Electrolux contributes the light-based tenth ring to Huo Yuhao’s Undead Saint Mage Martial Soul.
• After briefly faltering, Huo Yuhao rises and surges forward again, slaughtering demons while bearing the three worlds. His Stairway count becomes effectively infinite, and the Heavenly Demons retreat before him.
• The Great Dao warns that the worlds behind Huo Yuhao are too disparate to safely ascend together: they must be merged, or demons will continue attacking. Tang San realizes that merging them could trigger a massive Plane Advancement—and turn the Douluo World into a new, perhaps higher, Divine Realm.

• Tang Wulin recognizes the scale of Huo Yuhao’s achievement and tries to follow him beyond the Divine Path, but cannot. He becomes fiercely determined to stop Tang San from attacking Huo Yuhao.

• Dragon Generation VII, meanwhile, stalls at step 60. Tang Wulin is distressed that they have not reached step 70, but Tang San explains that the long-dead Dragon Kings’ weakened inheritances can only provide Quasi-God King power.

• Alarmed by their rise, Tang San urges Ma Hongjun and the other gods to ascend quickly and leave the Douluo World, intending to gather the Divine Realm’s forces against their rivals.
• Ma Hongjun rejects Tang San’s demand that he give up his own advancement.

The Holy Spirit Seven Heroes remain behind the other groups because they must create their own Godhoods rather than inherit them.
• Huo Yuhao returns from beyond the Divine Path, reunites his soul and body, and declares himself the Peerless True Lord. He abolishes the hundred-level limit in the Peerless World, allowing anyone who reaches level one hundred to become a god, and calls for all three Douluo worlds to ascend and eventually merge.
• Tang Wulin and Qian Renxue follow suit, each establishing themselves as their world’s True Lord and lifting its level restriction. The three worlds begin ascending, empowering their people and helping level-ninety-nine figures break through to level one hundred.
• The Peerless and Dragon King Divine Realms appear above the worlds, and their gods threaten to stop the ascent. Tang San sees an opportunity to crush his opponents and takes the First Generation Shrek Seven Monsters with him toward the Peerless Divine Realm. Ma Hongjun joins him after failing to reach the hundredth stairway step.
• With the Divine Realms closing in and Huo Yuhao needing time, Tang Wulin decides to face the threat himself. He declares himself the Dragon God and calls for rebellion against the Divine Realms’ oppression.

• Solidarity and sacrifice: Tang Wulin chooses to shoulder the danger himself, while Huo Yuhao works to raise entire worlds rather than claim power for himself alone.

• Destruction opposes a costly intervention and recognizes Tang San as the cause of the crisis. He tries to persuade Life not to save him.

• Power and justice: Wulin observes that strength forces the powerful to listen, but he uses his power to defend the oppressed rather than claim authority.
• Privilege and exploitation: The Divine Realm’s restrictions on ascension mirror the old monopolies of the mortal world; its gods risk repeating the abuses they once suffered.
• Chosen family and moral choice: Wulin’s loyalty is defined by love and conviction, not bloodline or inherited position.
• The cost of ambition: Tang San’s vision of Divine Realm advancement rests on invading another world, raising the question of whether progress achieved through exploitation is worth pursuing.
