He kept a low profile, sent his followers to investigate the bounty, and arrived at the Nether Hotel to wait for the full moon entrance to Nether Mountain.

• Sean's Seven-Star Demons reported the bounty on his life and the offer of Sovereign's Might, so Sean decided to alter his appearance and stay cautious.
• Decades later, Sean killed a group of bandits who ambushed his Metal Life and sent his followers to Nether Prefecture to investigate the latest developments.
• Sean reached Nether Mountain and learned from Cole, a guide for the Nether Hotel, that its entrance opened on the night of the full moon.
• At the hotel, Sean noticed a red-haired girl fishing whom he suspected was the Death Sovereign's divine avatar, then booked a room and waited for the entrance to open.

Sean entered Nether Mountain to escape the Four Divine Beasts Family and seek a Nether Fruit that could make him a Lord God Emissary. After wandering through the mountain and using a Soul Seed to find a guide, he reached the Gray Mist Zone and entered it despite its influence on the soul.

• Reno killed more than a dozen Highgods who followed the group toward Nether Mountain, while the Nether Hotel's owner noted that Sean was among the mountain's strongest entrants.
• Nether Mountain's pressure removed Sean's disguise and blocked his divine sense, so he separated from the other entrants and set out alone.

• After a month, Sean planted a Soul Seed in the survivor of a fight and ordered him to lead the way to the Gray Mist Zone.
• Sean killed the guide at the edge of the Gray Mist Zone and entered, finding that its influence could not drive him mad.

Sean searched the Gray Mist Zone for the Netherworld Fruit Tree and recruited powerful experts by using Soul Attacks and secretly planting Soul Seeds. He led a group of more than thirty Seven-Star Demons to the tree, which he recognized as the Life Main God residing in the Netherworld.

• Sean led the gathered experts to a clearing where the gray mist had vanished and found the Netherworld Fruit Tree.

Sean and his companions reached the Netherworld Fruit Tree, where he destroyed a swarm of Green Snakes and faced the Snake Spirit Elder for a chance to claim the Netherworld Fruit. The Elder’s Soul Attack failed to harm Sean, leaving it shocked.

• Sean learned that the Netherworld Fruit had appeared and that the snakes guarding the tree had killed many powerful demons.

Sean outmaneuvered the Snake Spirits and the Netherworld Fruit Tree to obtain and swallow the Nether Fruit. He began absorbing its benefits while his allies guarded him.

• The Snake Spirits let Sean attempt to reach the Nether Fruit after he passed their first test, and he used soul attacks and Soul Poison to set them fighting among themselves.
• Sean found the Netherworld Fruit Tree’s branches too powerful to overcome directly, then learned that the tree had avoided killing previous challengers.
• Sean ordered more than thirty Seven-Star Demons controlled by Soul Seeds to hold off the branches, and they charged without fear of death.
• When the Netherworld Fruit Tree hesitated to harm them, Sean bypassed its branches, plucked the Nether Fruit, and swallowed it.
• The fruit accelerated Sean’s deductions of the Profound Mysteries and showed him countless battles; he returned to the ground and began reflecting while his allies guarded him.

Sean used the Nether Fruit to advance his Light divine clone to Highgod, though it did not help him fuse another profound mystery. After the Netherworld Main God ended the fighting, Torres summoned Sean to receive an audience with another Main God and become a Lord God Emissary.

• Sean's Light divine clone advanced to Highgod in the Qingyuan Material Plane, and he tested the powerful Three-element Fusion God Power it could produce.

• Torres congratulated Sean and showed him around Nether Mountain, where he explained why he preferred staying there and revealed his own Offensive Physical Lord God Artifact.
• Sean suppressed the Soul Pearl's renewed desire when Torres displayed his saber, then chose a place on Nether Mountain, built a house, and continued training while occasionally exploring with Torres.
• Several hundred years later, the Death Sovereign summoned Sean to the Nether Hotel, where Sean found him fishing.

• Sean secretly approached and overheard that more Lord God Emissaries and powerful experts were expected to join the ambush.
• Sean realized the assembled enemies could threaten him if they surrounded him, so he decided to plant Soul Seeds in some of them and vanished.

Sean secretly planted Soul Seeds in members of the Four Divine Beasts Family and learned that a large force had gathered to target him. After Death Sovereign warned him that enemies were waiting near Nether Mountain, Sean asked to borrow people from her so he could strike first.

• Sean used Soul Poison and Soul Bewilderment to find a Xuanwu clansman with only one divine avatar and secretly planted a Soul Seed in him.
• The enslaved clansman brought Sean intelligence listing the Four Divine Beasts Family's forces, including a Lord God Emissary, six Seven-Star Demons, and nearly a hundred Six-Star Demons.
• Sean decided to launch a surprise attack and spent the following month planting Soul Seeds in more guards before returning to the Nether Hotel.
• Death Sovereign told Sean that more enemies had arrived and that several were waiting at the entrance to Nether Mountain.
• Sean told Death Sovereign that he could not defeat the gathered experts alone and asked to borrow people from her.

Sean gathered more than sixty Six-Star Demons from Nether Mountain by planting Soul Seeds in experts trapped in the Gray Mist Zone, then prepared to strike the Four Divine Beasts Family.

• Sean asked the Death Sovereign to let him recruit experts trapped in the Gray Mist Zone, and she agreed.
• Sean passed the Four Divine Beasts Family members lying in ambush near Nether Mountain and entered the Gray Mist Zone.
• Over more than a month, Sean planted Soul Seeds in over sixty Six-Star Demons and reunited with Torres.
• Sean brought his followers near the Four Divine Beasts Family and summoned an Azure Dragon clan member under his control.
• Sean ordered the controlled clansman to lure one or two hundred Azure Dragon clansmen into a valley where Sean had set up a Magic Array.

Sean used Youluo Valley’s Magic Array to plant Soul Seeds in more than two hundred Highgods and take their Sovereign’s Might, prompting the Four Divine Beasts Family to send an army after him. The army reached the valley and discovered that Sean had trapped them in another Magic Array.

• Hard led more than two hundred Highgods into Youluo Valley, where Sean’s group ambushed them and planted Soul Seeds in all of them.
• Sean ordered the controlled Highgods to hand over their Sovereign’s Might, while the Death Sovereign marveled at his skill with Soul Seeds.
• A surviving soldier reported Sean’s attack to the Four Divine Beasts Family, and Buweit warned Tashan that Sean’s Death Rule posed a threat to his weaker soul.
• Tashan and Buweit led an army of more than a thousand Four Divine Beasts Family soldiers toward Youluo Valley to kill Sean and recover their clansmen.
• The army found the Soul-Seed-controlled clansmen, but when Tashan noticed Sean was absent, a Magic Array formed around them and trapped the force.

Sean trapped the Four Divine Beasts Family in a water-element Magic Array fueled by Sovereign's Might, then lured Tashan and the others underground. The family’s formation collapsed into chaos when Soul-Seeded members began attacking their own clansmen.

• Buweit and Tashan recognized the white mist as Soul Poison Gas, and the Four Divine Beasts Family used Sovereign's Might to resist it and destroy the God-level attackers.
• Tashan concluded that Sean’s water-element Magic Array used Sovereign's Might to disrupt their divine sense, while Buweit realized Sean had Soul-Seeded Azure Dragon experts to obtain water-element Sovereign's Might.
• Sean attacked the gathered family members with Soul Attacks, but Tashan struck him with a khaki spear and sent him crashing into the ground.
• Tashan led several hundred people underground and ordered them to use Soul Attacks once he forced Sean out of hiding.
• Several dozen Soul-Seeded White Tiger Clan and Xuanwu Clan members suddenly attacked their companions, killing over a hundred and plunging the group into chaos.

Sean used Soul Seeds and the Life Law to disrupt the Four Divine Beasts Family’s siege, then activated a Magic Array and turned the attackers against Tashan. Tashan died under the combined assault, while Sean remained in control of the battle.

• Buweit ordered the Four Divine Beasts Family to gather their divine clones in Blood Dragon Valley and withdraw clansmen who might carry Soul Seeds.
• Sean summoned Life Law vines that killed dozens of clansmen, forcing Buweit and Tashan to pull the army back.
• Tashan delayed the attack while Blood Dragon Valley identified the Soul Seeds, but Sean activated the surrounding Magic Array and trapped the besiegers.

• Tashan charged Sean, but Sean used the clansmen's attacks, sixteen throwing knives, vines, Dragon's Roar, and the Magic Array to bind and kill him.

Sean killed Tashan and wiped out the trapped members of the Four Divine Beasts Family, leaving Buweit disgraced and powerless. In the Netherworld, the Death Sovereign appeared and asked Sean how he had planted Soul Seeds in so many God-level beings.

• Sean used Breler’s Magic Array to trap Buweit and the Four Divine Beasts Family, then killed everyone trapped inside.
• Buweit’s divine clone and Saint Domain True Body died, leaving him an ordinary Highgod who vowed to kill Sean and obtain the Sovereign Artifact.
• Gaisreisen berated Buweit for the family’s losses, then considered how difficult it would be to gather enough experts to ambush Sean.
• Sean put away the Magic Array in the Netherworld, and the Death Sovereign appeared and questioned him about planting Soul Seeds in so many God-level beings.

After Sean defeated members of the Four Divine Beasts Family, the Death Sovereign rewarded him and assured him she would protect him from their Lord Gods. She summoned Sean to Nether Mountain, where Audebeu and Torres revealed that a Plane War was about to begin.

• Sean told the Death Sovereign that his research into Soul Seeds was deep, and she praised him and gave him a bottle containing at least two hundred drops of Death-type Sovereign's Might.
• Sean asked whether the Four Divine Beasts Lord Gods would target him, and the Death Sovereign said they would not interfere unless he killed their descendants and promised to respond if a Lord God attacked him.
• The Death Sovereign warned Sean that multiple Lord God Emissaries could still exile him into Space Turbulence, and said she could retrieve him if he left a divine clone outside.
• Sean resisted the Soul Pearl's urge to devour Tashan's Sovereign Artifact and went to Nether Mountain, where he met Audebeu alongside Torres.
• The Death Sovereign summoned Sean, Audebeu, and Torres, and Audebeu asked Sean whether he knew about Plane Wars before Sean asked if the Netherworld's war was about to begin.

Sean, Audebeu, and Torres hunted a hidden Commander on the Plane Battlefield and cornered Livas. Their combined attacks killed the Light God Realm Commander, though Sean found that Sovereign’s Might made it difficult to finish enemies with Soul Attacks alone.

• Sean, Audebeu, and Torres explored the Plane Battlefield and discussed how its terrain and hunting conditions worked.

• Audebeu took Livas's badge, and the group discussed dividing the badges and the risks of collecting Sovereign Artifacts.
• Decades later, Sean, Audebeu, and Torres crossed the Star River and hid in a cave on enemy territory while their Death God Puppets searched for targets.
• After a hundred years, Torres detected Benfield and two companions, and Benfield used Sovereign's Might to locate the group's cave.
• Sean fought Benfield while Audebeu and Torres engaged the other two enemies.
