• A cloaked woman stabbed herself among the weird crystals, causing Mystery Runes and formation lines to appear across the Area Around Yi City.
• A loudspeaker at the Aerospace Base ordered everyone to retreat as the great formation trapped most of the Weird inside.

• A woman sacrificed her life to raise a Magic Formation around Yi City, trapping most of the Weird inside while human forces attacked those outside.
• The Qipao Weird failed to break through or leap over the rising barrier, and Jiang Shengnan shot her down as she tried to escape.
• Trapped humans either fought the Weird or fled toward Yi City as the Weird attacked the barrier before dawn.
• Rose possessed the corpse of a flying Weird and used it to carry her toward the top of the barrier, but shells destroyed the corpse.

• Luo Fan took out the Weird Bride’s red veil and activated it, summoning the Weird Bride directly to him.

As the sun rose over Yi City, it destroyed most of the Weird beings trapped inside the Magic Formation, giving humanity a major victory.

• The Weird Bride said their plan's success depended on whether Luo Fan had regained his ability, then felt his body react as she drew close to him.
• Luo Fan told the Nightmare Nekomata to go somewhere else, and it angrily protested that the sun was blazing outside.

Luo Fan confirmed that his ability had returned, while the Nightmare Nekomata formed a cocoon that suggested it was about to advance to the Fourth Tier. After reuniting with the Hope Convoy, Luo Fan checked his companions’ growth and asked Niu Dagang and Lin Feifei about their Third-Tier advancement requirements.

• The Weird Bride laughed at Luo Fan for telling the Nightmare Nekomata to leave in the daylight, then confirmed that his ability had returned and took the Innate Yin Jade.
• The Nightmare Nekomata nestled in the Weird Bride’s arms, absorbed energy near the Innate Yin Jade, and formed a cocoon that Luo Fan believed heralded its Fourth-Tier breakthrough.

• Luo Fan received Zhao Chunfeng’s message, shared his location, and met the arriving Hope Convoy about an hour later.
• Luo Fan used the Monitoring Glasses to find that most companions had gained Sequence Levels, with Lin Feifei reaching LV30 and Niu Dagang also reaching LV30.
• Luo Fan said he was now LV38, then asked Niu Dagang and Lin Feifei what they needed to advance to the Third-Tier Sequence.

After the Yi City battle, the Hope Convoy checked its Sequence Levels and arranged missions for Niu Dagang and Lin Feifei’s upcoming promotions. Luo Fan accompanied Niu Dagang to hunt a required beast while Lin Feifei left with Ai Si and Ximen Chuixue, and Han Shanzhong felt behind the other combat users as he searched the battlefield.

• Luo Fan found that his Sequence Level had reached Lv38, while An Xiaoran, Niu Dagang, Zhao Chunfeng, Han Shanzhong, Lin Feifei, Ximen Chuixue, and Ai Si were at Lv34, Lv30, Lv25, Lv29, Lv30, Lv34, and Lv36 respectively.

• An Xiaoran, Zhao Chunfeng, and Han Shanzhong returned to the Yi City Battlefield to search for materials and weird crystals, where Han Shanzhong found a Third-Tier weird crystal and lamented being the lowest-level combat Sequence User in the convoy.

Luo Fan absorbed a fifth-tier weird crystal and discussed the Weird Shadow’s apparent resurrection with the Weird Bride. Meanwhile, the Qipao Weird rode the Black Bird toward Luo Fan’s RV, eager to reward him and reclaim the Innate Yin Jade.

• Luo Fan absorbed a fifth-tier weird crystal and reached LV38, then regretted that the Weird Shadow’s return had kept him from reaching LV40.
• The Weird Bride told Luo Fan that the Weird Shadow had lost a tier after returning to life, but reminded him that Rose’s damage suggested this might not reveal the Shadow’s true ability.

• The Qipao Weird decided to find Luo Fan to thank and reward him for saving her, and to obtain the Innate Yin Jade.
• The Qipao Weird rode the enlarged Black Bird toward Luo Fan’s RV, excited to meet him and reclaim the Innate Yin Jade.

The Qipao Weird arrived at Luo Fan’s RV seeking the Innate Yin Jade, only to find the Weird Bride, Xiaodie, alive and with him. Xiaodie overpowered the Qipao Weird in their clash, leaving her visibly aged.

• Black Bird brought the Qipao Weird to the RV, where Luo Fan worried about being caught with the Weird Bride before realizing he had no reason to panic.

• The Qipao Weird used her fight with the Weird Bride to distract her from her relationship with Luo Fan, then escaped when she proved no match.
• The Weird Bride said the Qipao Weird had nearly reached Control Level, and Luo Fan agreed that her growth made sense.

• The convoy traveled toward the Copper-Skinned Iron-Armored Lizard and found fewer Weird along the way after the fighting in Yi City.
• Niu Dagang stopped the vehicle within the lizard’s range, and Luo Fan went to scout with him while the Weird Bride stayed behind.

Luo Fan and Niu Dagang searched the Copper-Hide Iron-Armor Rhino territory until Luo Fan located a fifth-tier beast and tested his Tearing skill on it. His sneak attack barely pierced its defenses, and the enraged rhino charged at him.

• Luo Fan and Niu Dagang searched for a fourth- or fifth-tier Copper-Hide Iron-Armor Rhino, but found none during their initial search.
• Luo Fan used his Long-Distance Magnetic Wave Hat to scan the territory and located a fifth-tier Copper-Hide Iron-Armor Rhino feasting on an Ironclad Cattle corpse.
• Luo Fan disguised himself as Zhang Dakai, transformed into an ink-black cheetah, and approached the rhino while Niu Dagang concealed himself.
• Luo Fan used Tearing to slash the rhino's neck, but his claws caused only shallow wounds.
• The enraged rhino thrust its horn at Luo Fan, then activated Charge and rushed at him like a speeding train.

Luo Fan and Niu Dagang fought a fifth-tier Copper-Hide Iron-Armor Rhino, and Luo Fan killed it with a coordinated trap-and-weapon assault. The kill raised Luo Fan to LV39, but more than ten rhinos charged toward them, so he and Niu Dagang fled toward the RV.

• Niu Dagang blocked the rhino’s charge while Luo Fan stacked God-Tier Enchanting marks and provoked it with poison and fire.

• Luo Fan called to Niu Dagang, and the two ran toward the RV.

• An Xiaoran told Luo Fan that Rose wanted to join forces with him to kill the Weird Shadow, and he used An Xiaoran’s phone to message Rose directly.
• Luo Fan rejected Rose’s offer of the Weird Shadow’s weird crystal, arguing that she would gain her freedom and benefit more than he would.

• Rose said she had heard the Weird Shadow mention the levels but did not know their divisions, and suggested the Weird Bride might know.
• Luo Fan asked the Weird Bride whether Sequence Users’ rule abilities had levels.

Luo Fan learned that rule abilities had higher levels beyond the one he and other Sequence Users had reached, though no one knew how to advance. He and the Weird Bride agreed to target Weird Shadow for revenge and his Weird Crystal, while Luo Fan hinted that another ally could help.

• The Weird Bride confirmed that rule abilities had multiple levels, but she could only explain that Luo Fan and other rule-skilled Sequence Users were on the lowest level.
• Luo Fan asked how she knew higher levels existed, and the Weird Bride compared them to floors in a building that could be seen but not reached.

• Luo Fan told the Weird Bride there was no need for her to act yet because he believed someone else could help.

The divination revealed that General Meng had opened the Ghost Domain entrance and let in the Weird that killed him.

• Luo Fan told the Weird Bride that Sister Hong could help them deal with the weakened Weird Shadow, but he wanted Rose to make a better offer before they acted.
