Chapter Summaries

Rose sacrificed herself to protect An Xiaoran, but after Weird Shadow destroyed her, her final power and message flowed into An Xiaoran. An Xiaoran's level rose rapidly as a sphere of holy and sinister Weird Qi enclosed her.

• Rose disintegrated into points of light that flowed into An Xiaoran, carrying her final message and an immense surge of experience.
• An Xiaoran's level climbed from LV35 to LV40 as holy and sinister Weird Qi formed a sphere around her.

Rose's final sacrifice fused her essence with An Xiaoran's powers, and An Xiaoran shattered the Fallen Angel Weird Crystal as she transformed inside a cocoon of light. Luo Fan held off Weird Shadow long enough for the cocoon to open, revealing an astonishingly changed An Xiaoran.

• Rose revealed that she had preset her death to send her remaining power and traces of existence to An Xiaoran, then left her a final message of care.
• An Xiaoran's holy, dark, and Rose-derived powers merged, breaking through level barriers as she reached LV40.
• An Xiaoran shattered the Fallen Angel Weird Crystal, absorbing its rule-like power into her transforming body and soul.
• Weird Shadow attacked the cocoon, but Luo Fan used the Golden Contract to block the lethal strike and then hit Weird Shadow with a full storm of enchanted needles.
• A holy-silver pillar struck the cocoon, which cracked apart and revealed a transformed An Xiaoran, leaving Luo Fan stunned.

An Xiaoran transformed and helped pin Weird Shadow down, giving Luo Fan the opening to unleash a fully empowered attack. The chapter ended as he fired three shots at Weird Shadow’s head.

• An Xiaoran transformed into a mature-looking figure, reached peak third tier, and wielded her Healing Cross as a weapon.
• The Qipao Weird used Time Reversal to restrain Weird Shadow as he formed a Dark Vortex to attack An Xiaoran.
• An Xiaoran struck Weird Shadow’s palm with the Healing Cross, then pinned him to one knee by crushing his shoulder with its rule power.
• At An Xiaoran’s command, Luo Fan stole thirty percent of Weird Shadow’s attack power while Black Bird built up Red Contract stacks with its attacks.
• Luo Fan activated Decapitation and fired three shots from the Weird Gun at Weird Shadow’s head.

Luo Fan, An Xiaoran, and Qipao Weird defeated Weird Shadow by exploiting his repeated resurrections until he was weak enough to kill, yielding a Control Level Weird Crystal and raising Luo Fan to Lv40. As they returned to camp, Luo Fan asked An Xiaoran about the requirements for advancing to the fourth-tier Sequence.

• Luo Fan shot Weird Shadow, but An Xiaoran warned that he would resurrect at a lower tier, and the weakened Weird Shadow reformed.
• An Xiaoran attacked Weird Shadow while Qipao Weird used Time Reversal to weaken him, and Luo Fan used Petrification Bait to create an opening for a point-blank shot.
• Weird Shadow resurrected repeatedly and tried to flee, but Luo Fan and An Xiaoran pursued and killed him each time until he reformed at Lv5 and begged for mercy.
• Luo Fan killed Weird Shadow for good, obtained a Rule-Type Weird Crystal, and rose from Lv39 to Lv40.
• An Xiaoran returned to her child form, Qipao Weird left after Luo Fan promised to help recover her Innate Yin Jade, and Luo Fan flew toward the Hope Convoy camp with An Xiaoran.
• Luo Fan asked An Xiaoran what she needed to advance to the fourth-tier Sequence.

An Xiaoran learned that her fourth-tier promotion required her to make and drink the Blazing Sun Holy Potion from sunflower nectar, so Luo Fan flew her to a mountaintop covered in sunflowers. After another team warned them that the enormous Sunflower Bee swarm had killed a fifth-tier beast, Luo Fan considered how to gather the nectar without exposing his companions to danger.

• An Xiaoran sensed where sunflowers grew, and Luo Fan changed course to take her there by helicopter.
• Luo Fan and An Xiaoran found a vast sunflower field guarded by thousands of first- and second-tier Sunflower Bees.
• Lin Zhanyue introduced herself and explained that her team gathered sunflowers to make Sunflower Magic Potions, but could collect only a few at a time.
• Lin Zhanyue warned that a Sunflower Bee swarm had stung a fifth-tier Earth Savage Bear to death and refused to help Luo Fan gather nectar.
• Luo Fan explained that An Xiaoran needed the nectar for her promotion mission, then considered the risk of acting with Lin Zhanyue's team nearby and the Nightmare Nekomata in the helicopter.

Luo Fan and Lin Zhanyue agreed to gather flowers and honey in separate parts of the field, then An Xiaoran drew the bees away while Luo Fan raided their hive. When the queen bee sent the swarm after him, Luo Fan used [Decapitation] on a weak bee to gain immunity from every other enemy, leaving him engulfed by the swarm with only fifteen seconds to escape.

• Lin Zhanyue and Luo Fan admitted they distrusted each other and agreed to work opposite ends of the flower field.
• Lin Zhanyue's team attacked the bees in the east while An Xiaoran transformed into her Angel Form and used Healing Cross to lure the swarm west.
• Luo Fan activated [Invisibility Cloak], slipped through the distracted bees, and cut open the hive with the [Wraith Short Sword] to collect honey.
• The queen bee emerged and commanded the entire swarm to attack Luo Fan, overwhelming the area around the hive.
• Luo Fan activated [Decapitation] on an ordinary first-tier Sunflower Bee, gaining immunity to attacks from all other enemies as the swarm completely surrounded him.

Luo Fan and An Xiaoran escaped the sunflower bee swarm with Sunflower Nectar, but they still needed to learn how to refine it into the Blazing Sun Holy Potion. An Xiaoran also revealed that her new transformation skill let her use rule abilities more freely.

• Luo Fan used Mimicry to disguise himself as a sunflower bee as his Decapitation invincibility ended, while An Xiaoran drew the swarm away by flying high into the sky.
• Luo Fan returned to the helicopter with the Sunflower Nectar, and Lin Zhanyue's team retreated from the flower fields as the bees returned.
• Luo Fan and An Xiaoran escaped by helicopter, then Luo Fan posted a request on the Sequence User Forum for potion-refining services or information.
• Luo Fan asked An Xiaoran about her new skill and the Fallen Angel's Rule-Type Weird Crystal, and she explained that she had absorbed the crystal and that her transformation let her use rule abilities more freely.

An Xiaoran explained how her new Transformation skill could graft changing rule effects onto her existing skills, and Luo Fan reported the successful destruction of the Weird Shadow to the Hope Convoy. Back in Lin City, he showed the Weird Bride the Control Level Weird Crystal and was about to explain his Fourth Tier advancement conditions when a new message interrupted him.

• An Xiaoran described Transformation as a skill that temporarily adds a situational rule effect to one of her skills, and Luo Fan recognized how it had changed Healing Cross into a throwable Seal Blade.
• Luo Fan and An Xiaoran returned to the Hope Convoy camp, where Luo Fan recounted Rose’s sacrifice and confirmed that the Weird Shadow had been slain and both of them had reached Lv40.
• Zhao Chunfeng and the others discussed Rose’s complicated history and her final effort to protect An Xiaoran, then celebrated the Weird Shadow’s defeat.
• Luo Fan returned to Lin City and told the Weird Bride that the Weird Shadow was dead for good, showing her the Control Level Rule-Type Weird Crystal.
• Luo Fan told the Weird Bride that he had reached Lv40 and learned his Fourth Tier advancement conditions, but a new Doomsday Phone message interrupted him before he could explain them.

Luo Fan met Jiang Shengnan to help with her fourth-tier promotion mission, impressing her with his six rule-type skills and two rule-type uncanny artifacts. After teasing her about his abilities, he asked where her mission target was, and Jiang Shengnan began to explain.

• Luo Fan agreed to meet Jiang Shengnan near Lin City and told the Weird Bride he would help with her fourth-tier promotion mission.
• Luo Fan traveled to the abandoned gas station with the Nightmare Nekomata, which would not count as an additional mission participant.
• Jiang Shengnan arrived on a level 42 Fierce Beast and was surprised to learn Luo Fan had reached level 40.
• Luo Fan said he was waiting to absorb a rule-type weird crystal before attempting his own promotion mission.
• Luo Fan revealed he had six rule-type skills and two rule-type uncanny artifacts, leaving Jiang Shengnan stunned and exasperated.
• Luo Fan asked Jiang Shengnan about her mission target, and she turned serious to explain.

Jiang Shengnan explained her Promotion Mission and joined Luo Fan to hunt a powerful Crimson Flame Asura Weird in the Ashen Mountains. During the flight, Luo Fan revealed his ties to the Weird Bride and the Qipao Weird, learned the Aerospace Base’s divination had been blocked, and reached the volcano with Jiang Shengnan to begin their attack.

• Jiang Shengnan told Luo Fan that forming a two-person party meant facing a fifth-tier Asura Weird, and showed him intelligence on the level-59 Crimson Flame Asura Weird in the Ashen Mountains.
• Luo Fan and Jiang Shengnan flew toward the target, and Luo Fan told her he served both the Weird Bride and the Qipao Weird, who were seeking the same Innate Yin Jade.
• Jiang Shengnan said the Aerospace Base’s fifth-tier Divination attempt had been disrupted, leaving it unable to determine the Weird Bride’s connection to General Meng or the whereabouts of an important item.
• Luo Fan realized the Fate Forbidden Fruit had blocked the divination and protected the secret of the Golden Weird Mirror’s whereabouts.
• Luo Fan and Jiang Shengnan reached the Ashen Mountains, where Luo Fan took a sniping position and Jiang Shengnan rode her Griffin toward the crater with the Nightmare Nekomata.
• A sharp shout and the Griffin’s cry sounded from the crater, and an enormous Weird charged out.

Jiang Shengnan and the Nightmare Nekomata weakened and distracted the Lv59 Crimson Flame Asura Weird while Luo Fan lined up a long-range shot. After the Nekomata stacked its movement and defense debuffs, Luo Fan fired three enhanced bullets from a thousand meters away, and they reached the Asura Weird as it tried to dodge.

• Jiang Shengnan used the Griffin and her Overlord Spear to draw the Crimson Flame Asura Weird’s attention while avoiding its attacks.
• The Nightmare Nekomata struck from the Asura Weird’s blind spots, stacking the Blue Contract to reduce its movement speed by 30%.
• The Nightmare Nekomata switched to the Red Contract and lowered the Asura Weird’s defense by 60% while Jiang Shengnan continued to kite it.
• Luo Fan watched the debuffs reach their limits, activated [Decapitation] and [Triple Shot], and fired three Crystal-Energy Bullets from his ridge position.
• The Crimson Flame Asura Weird sensed the incoming bullets and tried to dodge, but the shots reached it before it could escape.

Luo Fan helped Jiang Shengnan defeat a peak fifth-tier Crimson Flame Asura Weird, then asked the Aerospace Base to use Divination to learn how to brew the Blazing Sun Holy Potion for An Xiaoran. Mud Bodhisattva Master performed the divination, and the chapter ended as he began to reveal the answer.

• Luo Fan killed the Crimson Flame Asura Weird with a long-range shot, and Jiang Shengnan advanced to the fourth-tier Sequence.
• Jiang Shengnan gave Luo Fan the Asura Weird's peak-quality fifth-tier crystal as payment for his help.
• Luo Fan asked Jiang Shengnan to arrange Divination at the Aerospace Base to find out how to brew the Blazing Sun Holy Potion for An Xiaoran.
• Jiang Shengnan brought Luo Fan to the Aerospace Base's Weird Domain, where Master Wen Hao agreed to help and summoned Mud Bodhisattva Master.
• Luo Fan paid a fourth-tier Weird crystal, and Mud Bodhisattva Master completed the divination and began to reveal where the potion's brewing method lay.

Luo Fan found Xia Baicao in Greenwood Plain, rescued his convoy from a pack of Swift Wind Wolves, and obtained fifteen doses of Blazing Sun Holy Potion. He returned to Lin City and gave An Xiaoran the potion for her advancement, but Zhao Chunfeng arrived with urgent news just as she neared the critical moment.

• Master Wen Hao gave Luo Fan a map leading to Xia Baicao and asked him to watch the Weird Bride near Lin City; Luo Fan agreed to keep an eye out and discussed future trades.
• Luo Fan flew to Greenwood Plain and found Xia Baicao’s convoy surrounded by Swift Wind Wolves.
• Luo Fan used Mimicry to take Zhang Da’s robot form and drove the wolves away with Gatling fire and lasers.
• Xia Baicao brewed fifteen doses of Blazing Sun Holy Potion for Luo Fan, who paid him and the convoy’s captain with crystals and supplies.
• Luo Fan returned to Lin City and gave An Xiaoran the potion; she drank a dose and began advancing.
• Zhao Chunfeng entered and told Luo Fan that he had something important to report.

Zhao Chunfeng told Luo Fan that he had foreseen An Xiaoran using her cross to overpower a rule-level Weird, and An Xiaoran then advanced to Fourth Tier and revealed her new attack skill, Holy Judgment. As the Hope Convoy prepared to celebrate, an unidentified convoy approached Lin City.

• Zhao Chunfeng told Luo Fan that he had seen An Xiaoran suppress a rule-level Weird with her cross because her rule level was higher, though Luo Fan explained that her teenage appearance could come from Transformation.
• An Xiaoran advanced to Lv41 after taking one bottle of the Blazing Sun Holy Potion, becoming the Hope Convoy's first Fourth-Tier member.
• An Xiaoran demonstrated her new skill, Holy Judgment, piercing a metal plate with a concentrated beam of holy light.
• Luo Fan decided to hold a celebration, and Zhao Chunfeng went to invite the others in the convoy.
• Three modified off-road vehicles traveled toward Lin City while their occupants appeared to be waiting for something.

Zhou Qiang’s convoy settled on the outskirts of Lin City while Luo Fan finished absorbing the Shadow Rule crystal and sought a challenging target for his Fourth Tier promotion. Zhao Chunfeng’s divination pointed him toward Hong City, and the Golden Weird Mirror demanded two Fifth-tier Weird Crystals to reveal details about its occupying force, leaving Luo Fan reluctant to pay.

• Zhou Qiang led his convoy to settle on the outskirts of Lin City, reasoning that the Weird Bride had not been known to hunt ordinary people.
• After five days of absorbing the Shadow Rule crystal, Luo Fan finished planting its power and reviewed his requirement to hunt a Lord-level target for Fourth Tier promotion.
• Luo Fan gave Zhao Chunfeng a Third Tier Weird Crystal and asked him to find a powerful target that would maximize his promotion gains.
• Zhao Chunfeng divined that Luo Fan’s ideal target was in a large ruined city about eight hundred li east, then identified the city as Hong City.
• Luo Fan asked the Golden Weird Mirror about Hong City’s Weird forces, but it demanded two Fifth-tier Weird Crystals, and he hesitated over the price.

Luo Fan used the Golden Weird Mirror to learn that Hong City was controlled by a sixth-tier Abyssal Flame Demon and a vast force of Weirds, making his promotion mission far more dangerous than expected. He decided to turn the hunt into a military campaign, winning the Hope Convoy’s support and beginning to recruit the Aerospace Base, Greenedge Base, and independent Sequence Users.

• Luo Fan sacrificed his two remaining fifth-tier Weird crystals to reveal Hong City’s entrenched Weird forces, including a level 61 Abyssal Flame Demon, two fifth-tier Weirds, five fourth-tier Weirds, and more than a thousand lower-tier Weirds.
• Luo Fan gathered the Hope Convoy’s core members and explained that Hong City was the target for his fourth-tier promotion mission.
• Luo Fan proposed a large-scale campaign modeled on the Yi City battle, and Niu Dagang, Lin Feifei, Han Shanzhong, Ximen Chuixue, and Mo Yuling agreed to join.
• Zhao Chunfeng warned that the convoy and its outside allies lacked the numbers to defeat Hong City’s forces, and Luo Fan agreed that they needed more support.
• Luo Fan decided to contact the Aerospace Base and Greenedge Base and post Hong City’s intelligence and his campaign plan on the Sequence User Forum, offering independent Sequence Users the spoils they earned.
• Luo Fan sent Master Wen Hao a detailed message about Hong City and his plan to encircle its Weird forces, and Master Wen Hao replied after about ten minutes.

Luo Fan and Master Wen Hao organized a joint assault on the sixth-tier Abyssal Flame Demon occupying Hong City, and allies and Sequence Users gathered for the operation. As the last sunlight disappeared, Luo Fan ordered the battle to begin.

• Luo Fan and Master Wen Hao agreed to launch a joint operation against the Abyssal Flame Demon and announced the battle plan on the Sequence User Forum.
• Lian Ziqiong, Xiao Huohuo, Dongfang Yu, Cao Man, and Yan Qiu told Luo Fan they would join the fight.
• The Hope Convoy spent three days preparing for battle, while the Weird Bride offered to come if Luo Fan could not handle the danger alone.
• Sequence Users and elite forces from the Aerospace Base and Greenedge Base gathered ten kilometers east of Hong City.
• As the sun set, Luo Fan ordered the assembled forces to begin the battle.

At Hong City, more than a thousand Sequence Users began battling the swarming Weird, while Luo Fan charged the Wraith Short Sword by killing them. After about fifteen minutes, a sixth-tier Abyssal Flame Demon appeared above the city, and Luo Fan confirmed its level was LV61.

• At nightfall, Weird poured from Hong City's ruins toward the gathered Sequence Users, who concentrated their forces on the eastern side to meet the horde.
• Zhang Da, Lin Feifei, Ai Si, and the other ranged attackers used guns, cannons, reanimated corpses, fire, arrows, and elemental skills to tear into the advancing Weird.
• The Weird counterattacked with venom, tentacles, and mental assaults, killing and injuring Sequence Users amid the fighting.
• Luo Fan entered the edge of the horde and killed Weird to enslave their revenants and increase the Wraith Short Sword's power.
• After roughly fifteen minutes, a lava pillar erupted near Hong City's television tower, and the Abyssal Flame Demon rose above the ruins.
• Luo Fan checked the hovering demon with his Monitoring Glasses and confirmed that it was LV61, sixth tier.

Mo Yuling badly wounded the sixth-tier Abyssal Flame Demon with sunlight, but it retaliated by targeting her. Niu Dagang blocked its lava attack and used his new skill to reflect the stored power back at it.

• Luo Fan called on Mo Yuling, who opened a space-time rift and trapped the Abyssal Flame Demon in sunlight, badly burning it.
• Mo Yuling tried to restrain the wounded demon with Space-Time Chains, but the chains shattered under its level suppression.
• The demon targeted Mo Yuling with a powerful lava strike, but Niu Dagang stepped in and blocked it with his shield.
• Niu Dagang activated Shield Block Rebound and sent the demon's own lava attack roaring back toward it.

The Hope Convoy fought back against Hong City’s powerful Weirds as Niu Dagang reflected the Abyssal Flame Demon’s attack, An Xiaoran pinned the One-Eyed Giant, and Ximen Chuixue unleashed a blizzard of sword qi. When the wounded Abyssal Flame Demon rushed Niu Dagang while his Block skill was on cooldown, Luo Fan stepped in and took the strike.

• Niu Dagang reflected the Abyssal Flame Demon’s attack, wounding the sixth-tier Weird and rallying the human front.
• A One-Eyed Giant and a Ghost Weird emerged from Hong City, but An Xiaoran forced the giant to its knees with Healing Cross.
• Luo Fan approached the Ghost Weird, while Ximen Chuixue held back the lower-tier horde with Sword Qi Blizzard.
• Han Shanzhong, Ai Si, Lin Feifei, and Jiang Shengnan attacked the Weirds across the battlefield as Niu Dagang watched the Abyssal Flame Demon.
• The Abyssal Flame Demon rushed Niu Dagang while his Block skill was on cooldown, and Luo Fan stepped between them and took its burning claws to the chest.
