• Bai He envisioned combining modular artifacts, talismans, Wind and Cloud refining arts, and a Spirit Gathering Array to create Rune Technology, including an immense war fortress.

He left the Heaven Zone’s training under Wan Tao’s leadership, while the challenge of coordinating large-scale artifact projects remained.

• Lin Shuhan told a rescued middle-aged man that his knights were Earthlings who had learned martial arts in a parallel world, then brought the survivors into Xiangyang City.

• Bai He confirmed that the Rune Warship's modifications were complete and that it was ready for use.
• Bai He put on his black armor and received a transmission calling for Star Forging Dragon King Bai He.

Bai He reestablished contact with Lian Feng, who told him that three months had passed since the demons cut off Earth's communications. As Lian Feng raised the fall of Angel Queen Keisha, Bai He reflected on his love for Yan and vowed to find her or lay her to rest on Freyja.

• Lian Feng contacted Bai He through his armor and said she had restored communications after three months of trying.
• Bai He asked whether Lian Feng was with Rose and the others, and she sighed before asking if he knew Keisha had fallen.
• Bai He said Yan had already told him about Keisha's fall and remembered how Yan had sacrificed herself to save him.
• Bai He vowed to find Yan if she survived, marry her, and return her body to Freyja if she had died.

Lian Feng told Bai He that Keisha’s scattering across the universe delayed her eventual recovery, then asked him to support the stalled battle at North Star. Bai He agreed and learned where Rose and the others were believed to be.

• Lian Feng explained that Keisha’s Fourth Generation God Body could recover from being turned to ashes, but Karl’s use of the Big Clock had scattered her atoms and delayed her revival for more than ten million years.
• Bai He told Lian Feng that Angel Yan had died fighting Sword Demon Aatrox on Freyja, and Lian Feng explained that she had hoped to reach the angels at North Star through Yan.

• Bai He asked about his missing companions, and Lian Feng said Xiao Lun and Zhao Xin were likely in Juxia City, Qi Lin, Liu Chuang, and Meng Meng were likely in North China, and Rose was in Huangshi City.

Bai He learned from Lian Feng that Du Qiangwei was in Huangshi City and planned to go find her after preparing a Rune Warship mission. He reflected on his efforts to protect Xiangyang and learned from the Four Madmen that Morgana and the Skeleton Party had gained power in America, leaving Shen Chong and the others in danger.

• Lian Feng told Bai He that Du Qiangwei was in Huangshi City and asked him to find her, and Bai He agreed to go once he had handled his current business.
• Bai He prepared to send pilots aboard the completed Rune Warship to retrieve his apostles, recalling how Azure had gathered seven Super God Gene possessors before the Taotie crisis forced them into hiding.
• Bai He recalled defending Xiangyang City from a Taotie fleet by summoning his God and Devil Avatar, while his Inner Heaven and Earth could not reach the apostles or the Four Madmen elsewhere on Earth.
• Bai He learned from the Four Madmen that Morgana had attracted many Americans by offering safety and power in exchange for faith, and that the Skeleton Party had become her strongest believer faction.
• The Skeleton Party cooperated with the demons to eliminate Shen Chong and the others, while Yan could not reach them because Taotie Fleets blockaded America.

Shen Chong used the Immortal Palace Church and his High-Interest Loan ability to build a force within the Skeleton Party, then fought its leader for control. After the demons overwhelmed his cadres, Shen Chong fled with Xia He and trusted subordinates; with their pursuers sent to China, they were safe for the time being.

• Shen Chong and Xia He fled as the demons attacked, while many of their recruited subordinates betrayed the Immortal Palace and joined the demons.
• Shen Chong registered the Immortal Palace Church as a cover and used Morris and Balun to recruit Skeleton Party members.
• Shen Chong used High-Interest Loan to draw in cadres and mobilized them to challenge the Skeleton Party Leader, igniting a bloody internal conflict.
• When the demons allied with the original Skeleton Party, Shen Chong detonated the qi inside captured cadres and escaped with Xia He and the subordinates he still trusted.
• The demons eventually gave up the hunt, and the Skeleton Party members pursuing Shen Chong went to China on Morgana's orders, leaving Shen Chong and his group temporarily safe.

Bai He learned that Spirit Seeds would fail when their users approached the Third Order, so he brought his North China apostles to Xiangyang City and replaced their Spirit Seeds with genuine meridians.

• Bai He learned from Azure that Cheng An's Spirit Seed was nearing its limit and that continuing to cultivate could kill him.
• Bai He sent the Rune Warship to retrieve eight apostles from North China, including Cheng An and seven people with Super God Genes.
• The eight apostles arrived at Xiangyang City and greeted Bai He.
• Bai He brought the apostles into his Inner Heaven and Earth, gave them genuine meridians, and arranged for them to study at the Great Qian Royal Academy.
• Bai He left Xiangyang City and headed for Huangshi City to search for Du Qiangwei.

Bai He reached the outskirts of Huangshi City and rescued Lin Guoliang’s group from Fallen Demons. He learned that Du Qiangwei and an angel named Yan were in the city, and reacted with shock when he heard Yan’s name.

• Bai He introduced himself as the Star Forging Dragon King and learned that Lin Guoliang and the other survivors were heading to Huangshi City.
• Lin Guoliang told Bai He that Du Qiangwei and an angel named Yan were protecting Huangshi City.
• Bai He excitedly pressed Lin Guoliang to confirm that the angel’s name was really Yan.

Bai He chose to escort Lin Guoliang and the other survivors to Huangshi City rather than rush ahead to find Angel Yan and Du Qiangwei. Near dusk, he sensed a powerful surge of Leina’s Sun Force descend in the direction of the city and urged the group to hurry.

• Bai He agreed to guide the survivors to Huangshi City, and Lin Guoliang thanked him on their behalf.
• The group rested after fleeing the Fallen Demons, then camped by water and caught a goat in their traps the next morning.
• Bai He and the survivors passed through an inhabited village and followed the main road toward Huangshi City, where Bai He silently killed two Fallen Demons.

• Bai He grew uneasy about what was happening and told the survivors to move faster.

• Bai He dragged down a Taotie Battleship headed from Huangshi City and seized its commander, Xiong Liao, and two other Taotie.
• Bai He extracted the three Taotie’s souls and learned that they had been monitoring Rose and Yan in Huangshi City.
• Bai He discovered that Pan Zhen had healed Yan, while Rose and Du Qiangwei had left the city after Morgana’s Demon Hand seized a woman.
• Lian Feng told Bai He that Du Qiangwei had left Huangshi City, and Bai He refused to pursue her.
• Bai He learned of Pan Zhen’s great power and decided to begin his second journey after bringing the survivors to Huangshi City.
