• Ye Qiyan realized the tree’s increased potential meant it could undergo Ascension.

Ye Qiyan ascended the Whiteforest Fruit Tree into Venus's Golden Fruit Tree, gaining a powerful defense against divinity attacks and a Golden Apple.

• Ye Qiyan found Aimee playing games on the console; she hurried to change into her Guide attire and offered to show him the trial venue before the next trial.

Ye Qiyan faced Mogrus, an Evil Species whose power spread fear and filled the arena with an evil domain. He answered by summoning Gluttony and unleashing a vast army, leaving Mogrus bewildered as the battle began.

• Ye Qiyan studied Mogrus’s information while Aimee warned him that Evil Species had special ways of countering opponents.
• Mogrus entered the arena and its fearful presence made the spectators fall silent and left Aimee trembling.
• Ye Qiyan comforted Aimee, entered the arena, and remained unaffected by Mogrus’s fear-inducing power.
• Mogrus activated Evil-Natured Parasitism, but Ye Qiyan’s defenses nullified it and its evil miasma concealed the arena.
• Ye Qiyan summoned Gluttony, which spread across the arena and produced an army of thousands that bewildered Mogrus.

Gluttony’s legion overwhelmed Mogrus while Ye Qiyan prepared his Demon Cards to turn the battle around. With the demons empowered, Mogrus was battered until it felt fear of death for the first time.

• Gluttony sent endless waves of converted monsters against Mogrus, which spat out the Goblin Hero King’s flesh and struggled to break through the legion.
• Mogrus remembered its mission to kill Ye Qiyan and charged toward him, but the Steam King stopped it briefly at the cost of its own destruction.

• Decision and the Raven Twin Evils attacked Mogrus, while spectators outside the darkness cheered Ye Qiyan on.
• As Ye Qiyan’s demons battered Mogrus, the monster felt fear of death for the first time.

Ye Qiyan defeated Mogrus in the tenth trial, but a sinister presence emerged to reclaim its corpse and transformed the match into the eleventh trial. He stopped Evil Demon 33 from escaping or sending information, then ordered Red Tears to strike it down; the final trial was set for 15 days later.

• Ye Qiyan and his demons killed Mogrus, and the Netherworld System awarded him 1,000 Train Coins for passing the tenth trial.
• As Gluttony devoured Mogrus's corpse, a mass of arms and eyes emerged from the slime, and the Arena changed the match into the eleventh trial against Evil Demon 33.

• Eris said she would help Ye Qiyan once but did not want him to pass the twelfth Trial too easily.

With fifteen days before the final Trial, Ye Qiyan used ascension to strengthen his equipment. He transformed the Flower of Evil into a ring for Eve and upgraded Teleportation Prohibition into a space-restricting anchor.

• Ye Qiyan decided to try ascending the Flower of Evil, Mechanism Command, and Teleportation Prohibition before the final Trial.
• Ye Qiyan used Ultimate Ascension on the Flower of Evil, creating a ring that empowered Eve's Evil trait and let her Star Shatter ignore 10% of defensive abilities with no upper limit.
• Eve engraved the ring with its name and a dedication to Ye Qiyan, then wore it and showed it off to Lisette.
• After resting and recovering his energy, Ye Qiyan ascended Teleportation Prohibition into Transcendence · Teleportation Prohibition!, which could restrict all abilities that traversed space within a radius based on his mental energy.

Ye Qiyan discovered that his ascended Gemstone had become a portable Anchor Point linked to his Blasphemy Card, then used Venus’s Glance to prepare for ascending Mechanism Command. He began the Ascension with his stamina and mental energy draining rapidly.

• Ye Qiyan realized the ascended Gemstone could serve as a movable Anchor Point for Anchor and learned that the system classified it as a Blasphemy derivative.
• Miatila explained that information about Blasphemy Card owners was restricted and that some owners might have stopped progressing.

• Ye Qiyan rested for a day, then drank Venus’s Glance and received a blessing of good luck from Venus.
• Ye Qiyan began ascending Mechanism Command as radiance enveloped it and his stamina and mental energy rapidly drained.

Ye Qiyan ascended Mechanism Command into the Supreme-level Transcendence Command, then tested its temporary enhancements on his Mechs and Demons. Its limits led him to suspect that Supreme beings and Transcenders shared a level, and that Lisette might be stronger than he had thought.

• Ye Qiyan spent 860 Ascension points to upgrade Mechanism Command into Transcendence Command, which could temporarily grant a machine the Supreme prefix and amplify one ability.
• Ye Qiyan recognized that Demon-Mechanism Soulfall might let him apply the command’s mechanical enhancement to his Demons.
• After recovering some Spirit, Ye Qiyan tested the command on Eve, Augustine, and his Demons, finding that it boosted abilities such as attack speed, strength, and energy conversion.
• Ye Qiyan failed to apply the enhancement to Red Tears or Lisette and realized the command might be unable to enhance Transcenders as well as Supreme beings.
• Ye Qiyan considered Lisette’s repeated victories over Eve and wondered whether she was far stronger than she appeared.

• The gate opened onto a lonely planet, and Ye Qiyan invited Aimee to go with him as he entered the Corona-Level Arena.
