Chu Han reached level 60 and became a Spirit Emperor shortly before his squad arrived at the front line to search the Uninhabited Mountain Range for Evil Soul Masters. After Huo Yuhao identified a likely hiding area, Chu Han proposed splitting the squad into two groups to counter the terrain’s disadvantages.

• Chu Han broke through from level 59 to level 60, becoming a Spirit Emperor before turning eighteen.
• Chu Han and the squad reached the front line, where Spirit Hall personnel had sealed off the mountain range and searched its exits and terrain.
• Qing Chi learned which areas had already been searched and led the squad into the unsearched region.
• Huo Yuhao identified a dense cluster of small and medium-sized mountains as a likely hiding place, and Qing Chi led the squad there.
• Ye Guyi and the others noted that the Evil Soul Masters could spot and ambush them from the terrain, while splitting up or bringing in more searchers each carried risks.
• Chu Han proposed dividing the squad into two groups and said he had a plan to reduce the danger.

Chu Han proposed using the seventeen young Spirit Hall fighters as bait to draw out the Evil Soul Masters, with two squads advancing on opposite sides of a small mountain and Guang Yu watching from the ridge. Qing Chi approved the plan and assigned the teams, and the operation began with both groups moving along their routes.

• Chu Han explained that the Evil Soul Masters might attack Spirit Hall’s young geniuses to take hostages, so the group could lure them into an ambush.
• Chu Han proposed splitting the seventeen fighters into two squads while one person watched from the mountain and signaled the other squad if enemies attacked.
• Huo Yuhao questioned how the lone scout could observe both squads, stay hidden, and signal them without alerting the enemy.
• Chu Han identified Guang Yu as the scout, and Guang Yu agreed to use his arrows to send signals between the squads.
• Qing Chi approved the plan, appointed Chu Han to lead one squad, and divided the fighters into two balanced groups.
• The two squads moved out on opposite sides of the small mountain as Guang Yu took the position between them.

Chu Han and Qing Chi’s squads searched a mountain range while Guang Yu scouted separately, unaware that the Holy Spirit Cult had found them. Lan Fuzi identified the squads as the Demon Extermination Squad and planned to capture them as hostages, but the impatient Evil Soul Masters pressed her to attack.

• Chu Han and Qing Chi’s sixteen fighters entered the mountains while Guang Yu observed from concealment, and the enemy discovered both squads.
• Lan Fuzi stopped the Holy Spirit Cult from fleeing and proposed capturing the young Spirit Hall fighters to secure their escape.
• Lan Fuzi led the Evil Soul Masters to a hidden vantage point, where she recognized Chu Han and Ye Guyi among the targets.
• Chu Han’s and Qing Chi’s squads continued searching without knowing they were being watched, while growing concerned about the other group and Guang Yu.
• After watching the squads for an hour, the Holy Spirit Cult members urged Lan Fuzi to attack before the squads could regroup or reinforcements could arrive.

Lan Fuzi led the Holy Spirit Cult in an ambush against Qing Chi’s group, targeting Qian Yu for her Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul. Guang Yu’s warning and Chu Han’s arrival exposed the ambush, but Lan Fuzi pressed her attack on Qian Yu as Chu Han charged into battle.

• Lan Fuzi spotted Chu Han and Ye Guyi, decided she had to kill Chu Han, and led fifty-seven Holy Spirit Cult members toward Qing Chi’s group.
• Guang Yu spotted the approaching enemies and fired an arrow to warn Chu Han’s group, who rushed to reinforce Qing Chi.
• The Holy Spirit Cult attacked Qing Chi’s group, noticed Qian Yu’s Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul, and focused their assault on her.
• Guang Yu’s long-range arrow killed a Soul Saint and several Soul Elders, while Chu Han and his companions arrived and confronted Lan Fuzi.
• Lan Fuzi activated her Martial Soul Avatar and overpowered Qian Yu’s defense, but Chu Han charged in and unleashed the first form of Divine Demon Swordplay.

Chu Han intervened to save Qian Yu, then confronted Lan Fuzi as the Demon Extermination Squad overwhelmed the Holy Spirit Cult forces. Lan Fuzi’s Soul Saint strength gave her an edge in their duel, but she could not defeat Chu Han quickly enough to save her allies.

• Chu Han and the others attacked the Holy Spirit Cult, while Huo Yuhao weakened the enemy with Group Weakness.
• Chu Han killed two attackers targeting Qian Yu, helped her resist Lan Fuzi, and sent her to assist the others.
• Chu Han revealed Divine Slaughter's Domain and said he intended to absorb Lan Fuzi, who refused and challenged him.
• Lan Fuzi’s Soul Saint power let her slightly suppress Chu Han, but she could not land a decisive blow before the Demon Extermination Squad killed the cult members.
• Chu Han pointed out that Lan Fuzi had no time to defeat him as Ye Guyi, Qian Yu, Huo Yuhao, Qing Chi, and the others gained the advantage.

Chu Han tried to persuade Lan Fuzi to become his Spirit Soul while fighting her, but she fled after Ye Guyi and her allies killed a powerful Holy Spirit Cult Soul Douluo. With Huo Yuhao’s Wind Wings, Chu Han, Ye Guyi, and Huo Yuhao caught up to Lan Fuzi, and Chu Han and Ye Guyi began battling her together.

• Chu Han secretly told Lan Fuzi he knew the Spirit Soul Contract Method and urged her to become his Spirit Soul, but she refused and kept fighting.
• Ye Guyi, Qian Yu, and Qing Chi killed a powerful Holy Spirit Cult Soul Douluo, leaving the enemy at a disadvantage.
• Lan Fuzi used her Demon Whale Power to blast Chu Han aside and flee, but Chu Han pursued her, followed by Ye Guyi and Huo Yuhao.
• Huo Yuhao gave Chu Han and Ye Guyi Wind Wings, allowing the three of them to catch up with Lan Fuzi and block her path.
• Lan Fuzi unleashed her Demon Whale Power at full strength, but Chu Han and Ye Guyi coordinated their sword attacks and struck her before she knocked them back.

Chu Han, Ye Guyi, and Huo Yuhao defeated Lan Fuzi, whom Chu Han revealed to be a hundred-thousand-year Deep Sea Demon Whale in human form. He offered her a choice between becoming his spirit soul and having her spirit ring absorbed, but Lan Fuzi recognized his resemblance to Chu Ye and turned on him in fury.

Chu Han persuaded Lan Fuzi to become his spirit soul by promising she could reunite with her father, the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King. As Chu Han used the Spirit Soul Contract Method to absorb her, Ye Guyi and Huo Yuhao realized it was an ability associated with Dragon God Chu Ye and suspected Chu Han was his descendant.

• Chu Han explained that the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King had become a powerful deity and told Lan Fuzi she could join him in the Divine Realm if she became Chu Han's spirit soul.
• Lan Fuzi accepted Chu Han's offer rather than die, hoping to see her father again.

The Demon Extermination Squad returned to Spirit Hall Academy with the location of the Holy Spirit Cult’s headquarters, where Jin Changfeng asked Chu Han how he had learned it.

• Chu Han gained the Magic Whale Tear Slash and Demon Sword Whale Ziya spirit abilities after absorbing Lan Fuzi’s ring, then told her to stay hidden from outsiders.
• Chu Han confessed to Ye Guyi and Huo Yuhao that he was Chu Ye’s son, and asked them to keep his identity secret from Spirit Hall.
