• Ling Yi concealed his powers by suppressing their fluctuations, while keeping Chu Ran away from the detection devices.
• After Ling Yi scored 132 on a Chinese exam with an unusually strong essay, Zhou Yun called him to her office and asked about the changes in his grades and demeanor.

Ling Yi pre-summoned Bai Suzhen to strengthen his team, then tracked a Kami Church stronghold in Dafeng City. The chapter left him preparing to attack its underground club with White Bone.

• Zhou Yun urged Ling Yi to focus on the college entrance exam, while noticing that his outlook had changed.
• Ling Yi used Pre-Summon to lock in Bai Suzhen, a Fifth Tier Great Perfection fighter and healer, and committed to paying the remaining 13320 energy within seven days.
• On June 3, Ling Yi detected seven First Tiers and one Third Tier behind a hidden wall at the southern underground mall stronghold.
• Ling Yi sent White Bone ahead to deal with the stronghold's members, assuring her that he had experience fighting far stronger opponents.

Ling Yi raided a Kami Church club, absorbed a Third Tier deacon’s energy, and discovered the church’s citywide backup plan. He sent White Bone to hunt another base while he worked to gather enough energy to pre-summon Bai Suzhen.

• Ling Yi disguised himself as the Third Tier deacon, and White Bone killed the seven Ability Users inside the club.
• Ling Yi defeated the deacon, absorbed 5,200 energy, and let White Bone absorb the energy from the other seven victims.
• Ling Yi used the deacon’s biometrics to open an encrypted folder and found orders for the Kami Church to spread concentrated Kami Potion through Dafeng City’s groundwater if its primary plan failed.
• Ling Yi copied the files, left the club with White Bone, and saw that he still needed 6,440 energy to complete Bai Suzhen’s pre-summoning.
• White Bone reported finding a small Kami Church base in the eastern industrial district, and Ling Yi ordered her to clear it out.

After clearing several Kami Church bases, Ling Yi learned that reinforcements were coming to Dafeng City and planned to summon Bai Suzhen by gathering more energy. Chu Ran identified three remaining bases, and Ling Yi and White Bone set out to attack two of them while leaving the school base for later.

• The White Bone Demon returned with 1,840 energy points, and Ling Yi received 320 more from his daily check-in, leaving him 4,600 short of summoning Bai Suzhen.
• Ling Yi discovered that fifteen Kami Church reinforcements, including a Fourth Tier, were expected to arrive on June 8.
• Chu Ran decrypted a roster showing nineteen Kami Church members still remained across bases at a train station hotel, an office building, and beneath Dafeng City No. 3 Middle School.
• Ling Yi decided to leave the school base untouched and sent White Bone to attack the hotel while he targeted the office building.
• Ling Yi detected eight Ability Users at the Binjiang Road office building and climbed down its exterior wall to reach the twenty-third floor.

Ling Yi defeated a third-tier Kami Church member and learned more details about the Heavenly Descent Plan and its backup. After absorbing enough energy, he completed Bai Suzhen’s summon, and she appeared in his study and greeted him as her master.

• Ling Yi surprised a third-tier fire Ability User while he meditated, overpowered him, and forced him to reveal the Heavenly Descent Plan’s details.
• The man said the Kami Church would release potion at three exam sites on exam day, with a fourth-tier Ability User named Lin Feng leading the team, and that the backup required holy envoy Bai Ye’s authorization.
• Ling Yi learned the potion was hidden in an eastern cold-chain warehouse, absorbed the man’s energy, and received White Bone’s message that five targets had been dealt with.
• Ling Yi returned to his apartment with enough energy to complete Bai Suzhen’s preliminary summon, spending 13,320 energy points.
• Bai Suzhen appeared in Ling Yi’s study, bowed, and greeted him as her master.

Ling Yi brought Bai Suzhen into his team, where she discovered seals protecting or restraining his hidden power and began treating Chu Ran’s wound. As Chu Ran recovered, Ling Yi planned his next move against the Heavenly Descent Plan and resolved to find Holy Envoy Bai Ye.

• Bai Suzhen sensed multiple high-level seals in Ling Yi, which she believed served as protection or restraints, and agreed to help him.
• Ling Yi introduced Bai Suzhen to White Bone, then brought her to examine Chu Ran’s abdominal wound.
• Bai Suzhen found corrosive energy from outside the world suppressing Chu Ran’s healing and began daily treatments to remove it.
• Ling Yi remembered a white-robed figure he associated with Bai Ye and felt an anger rooted in his body’s past.
• Over the next three days, Bai Suzhen’s treatments mostly healed Chu Ran’s wound, and Ling Yi spread out a map to plan his next move.

Ling Yi and his allies planned to dismantle the Kami Church’s remaining hideouts, locate its drug supply, and prevent the Purification Protocol, while preparing for reinforcements led by Lin Feng. After tracking the arriving team to a west-side building, Ling Yi postponed an attack until Chu Ran recovered enough to join the fight.

• Ling Yi, Chu Ran, and White Bone reviewed the Kami Church hideouts and decided to clear the train station hotel before the school hideout.
• Ling Yi explained that the Heavenly Descent Plan depended on three doses of concentrated drugs and that the Kami Church could release them into the groundwater through the Purification Protocol.
• Chu Ran warned that Holy Envoy Bai Ye was at least Seventh Tier, making a direct confrontation too dangerous, so the group resolved to learn more about him.
• On June 8, Ling Yi received word that Lin Feng and five Second Tier Ability Users had arrived and were heading west through Dafeng City.
• White Bone’s scouts traced the six reinforcements to a sealed third floor in an old residential building, and Ling Yi chose to wait rather than attack without Bai Suzhen.
• In the early hours of June 9, Bai Suzhen completed Chu Ran’s treatment, restoring her strength so she could join the fight.

Ling Yi recalled that the world had been reset before and concluded this was his third time living through it, then led White Bone and Bai Suzhen in an attack on Lin Feng and other Kami Church members. The fight began in Lin Feng’s apartment, where the two demons blocked his escape.

• Ling Yi remembered dying in an earlier life and hearing a white-robed figure say the world had been reset, then resolved not to fail again.
• Ling Yi detected six supernatural presences in an apartment and assigned White Bone to block escape routes while Bai Suzhen targeted the Fourth Tier ability user.
• Ling Yi broke into the apartment and blocked Lin Feng’s opening fire attack with a Bone Shield.
• White Bone attacked Lin Feng from behind, while Bai Suzhen sealed a window with a curtain of water as Lin Feng tried to escape.
• Lin Feng’s eruption knocked the five Second Tier members unconscious, leaving their condition unclear.

Ling Yi defeated Lin Feng, learned that the potions were stored at cold-chain warehouse C-17, and discovered that Bai Ye had activated the backup Purification Protocol. He went to the warehouse with White Bone and Bai Suzhen, leaving Bai Suzhen outside as they approached the guarded entrance.

• Bai Suzhen restrained Lin Feng while Ling Yi blocked his fireball and knocked him through a wall with a single punch.
• Ling Yi tortured Lin Feng until he revealed that the potions were at Eastern cold-chain warehouse C-17 and that he was responsible for releasing them, but Lin Feng did not know where Bai Ye was.
• Ling Yi absorbed Lin Feng's energy, then learned that the five captured Ability Users had been forced into the Kami Church by the potion; Bai Suzhen suppressed their symptoms.
• Ling Yi recalled Bai Ye activating the Purification Protocol and realized he had to find or kill Bai Ye to stop it.
• At four in the morning, Ling Yi reached the eastern warehouse district with White Bone and Bai Suzhen, then sent White Bone to knock out the two guards at warehouse C-17.

Ling Yi destroyed the Kami Potion stock meant for the Heavenly Descent Plan, but visions of a vast production operation revealed the Kami Church’s ambitions reached far beyond Dafeng City. During six quiet days, he continued attending school while monitoring a Kami Church stronghold beneath campus and evading upgraded detection devices, leaving him worried that the Superpower Bureau would expose him and Chu Ran.

• Ling Yi used Lin Feng's appearance to enter a cold storage warehouse and found thirty-six tubes of concentrated Kami Potion reserved for the Heavenly Descent Plan.
• Ling Yi saw fragmented memories of a factory producing a thousand tubes of Kami Potion a day and realized the Kami Church's plans extended beyond Dafeng City.
• Ling Yi burned all thirty-six tubes and the toxic mist, then left with White Bone after she dealt with the security guards' corpses.
• Ling Yi spent six peaceful days attending school, aware that the Heavenly Descent Plan's primary operation had failed but that the Purification Protocol, Bai Ye, and more reinforcements remained threats.
• Ling Yi detected eight Kami Church members hiding in an underground stronghold beneath his school but held back from attacking because of the students and the risk of alerting the Superpower Bureau.
• Ling Yi noticed the Bureau had upgraded campus scanners to identify superpower tiers, suppressed his own fluctuations to pass them, and worried Chu Ran could not conceal hers.

Ling Yi studied a Kami Church message delaying the Purification Protocol while Chu Ran’s shadow ability neared a breakthrough. A dream brought a warning from Ling Yi’s past-life self, who said the coming disasters would repeat and hinted at a deeper force behind Bai Ye before vanishing mid-sentence.

• Ling Yi examined Bai Ye’s message saying the Heavenly Descent had failed and the Purification Protocol’s start time remained undecided, then recalled Bai Ye waiting for a signal from a crystal ball.
• Chu Ran demonstrated her rapidly strengthening shadow ability, and Bai Suzhen judged that she was close to advancing from the second tier to the third.
• Ling Yi dreamed that his past-life self warned him the world had been reset, major disasters would happen again, and Bai Ye was not alone.
• Ling Yi’s past-life self mentioned that Ling Yi had a system and began to say, “Don’t trust,” before disappearing.
• Ling Yi woke and wrote down his fragmented memories and his past self’s warning.

Ling Yi concluded that he needed at least Sixth Tier power to find Bai Ye and seize the crystal ball during the Heavenly Descent Plan, but he could not sleep as he weighed how to break through. Meanwhile, Chu Ran successfully reached Third Tier and gained stronger shadow abilities, though Ling Yi told her to master suppressing her energy before joining future operations.

• Ling Yi wrote that the Purification program could only be delayed and that he needed to find Bai Ye, seize the crystal ball, and reach at least Sixth Tier.
• Chu Ran struggled through a dangerous breakthrough as Bai Suzhen stabilized her power and Ling Yi and White Bone watched.
• Chu Ran broke through to Third Tier, forming shadow armor and learning she could maintain six stronger shadow clones.
• Bai Suzhen explained that Chu Ran's citywide sensing and reconnaissance had surpassed White Bone's.
• Ling Yi warned Chu Ran to suppress her stronger energy fluctuations and refused to let her join the next operation until she mastered the technique.

Ling Yi learned that seven seals restricted his power and memories, then had Bai Suzhen remove the first energy seal. His power surged to the threshold of Sixth Tier, and he asked when they could remove the second seal.

• Bai Suzhen explained that Ling Yi had seven seals: three energy seals, two memory seals, and two inner seals she could not identify.
• Bai Suzhen warned that removing the third energy seal could strain Ling Yi’s body beyond what it could withstand, and that strengthening his body enough would take at least three months.
• Ling Yi decided to remove the first seal despite the risks and asked Bai Suzhen to stop if the process went wrong.
• Bai Suzhen loosened the first seal, which shattered and unleashed Ling Yi’s sealed power, causing him intense pain as his body adapted.
• Ling Yi tested his increased power and found he had reached the threshold of Sixth Tier, then asked when the second seal could be removed.

Ling Yi reached the Half-Step Sixth Tier after Bai Suzhen warned him that he needed a week before releasing the next layer of his seal. On his way home, three Kami Church assassins confronted him in an alley, and he revealed his strength and copied their leader Qin Feng’s appearance.

• Bai Suzhen told Ling Yi that releasing the second layer of his seal before his body adapted would make it collapse, so he decided to wait a week.
• Ling Yi assessed his allies’ strength and prepared to face the Kami Church’s remaining forces before the college entrance exam and the coming disasters.
• On June 22, Ling Yi sensed three approaching attackers and inferred that the Kami Church had sent them to test him.
• Qin Feng identified himself as a Kami Church deacon acting on Bai Ye’s orders and attacked Ling Yi alongside two Third Tier fighters.
• Ling Yi blocked their combined assault with Bone Shield, then used the Technique of Changes to transform his face into Qin Feng’s.

Ling Yi defeated Qin Feng’s team in an alley and broke through to the Sixth Tier, then sent Bai Ye a warning that he was back. Bai Ye used a crystal ball to uncover Ling Yi’s seven-layer seal and suspected the previous Holy Envoy had placed it to protect him.

• Ling Yi used Qin Feng’s appearance and copied ability to defeat the fire-element and earth-element killers.
• Ling Yi broke through to the Sixth Tier during the fight and wounded Qin Feng, then let Qin Feng and the other survivors escape with a message for Bai Ye.
• Ling Yi returned to the street and went home without drawing attention to the battle.
• Bai Ye saw the fight through a crystal ball and recognized Ling Yi’s Technique of Changes, bone-element power, and Sixth Tier strength.
• Bai Ye examined the seal inside Ling Yi and suspected the previous Holy Envoy had placed it to protect him until he was strong enough.

Bai Ye moved the Purification Protocol forward to two in the morning on June 24, targeting No. 3 Middle School and its surrounding area because Ling Yi was becoming a threat. Ling Yi learned of the plan and prepared a covert operation to stop the drug release and evacuate the students.

• Bai Ye agreed to activate the undercharged Purification Protocol the next night, limiting its range to No. 3 Middle School and a two-kilometer radius.
• Ling Yi discovered that the Kami Church had brought drug-release equipment into the underground base and realized the attack would happen at two in the morning on June 24.
• Ling Yi met White Bone and ordered Bai Suzhen to stand by near the school as they planned to infiltrate the base, seal its ventilation ducts, and eliminate the church members.
• Ling Yi decided to evacuate the students quietly and chose Miller, whose abilities were cloning and hypnosis, for a minimum-guarantee summon.

Ling Yi and his allies planned an assault on the Kami Church’s underground base beneath Dafeng City No. 3 Middle School after discovering its concentrated potions and timed release system. They prepared a coordinated strike to stop the release, block the escape route, and eliminate the attackers.

• Ling Yi briefed Bai Suzhen, the White Bone Demon, and Chu Ran on the plan to remove the students and wipe out the Kami Church members at the school.
• Chu Ran sent Dark Shadow Clones through the underground shelter’s ventilation ducts and discovered over a hundred concentrated potions, a timed release device, eight enemies, and a backup exit.
• Ling Yi assigned Bai Suzhen to flood the ventilation ducts, the White Bone Demon to destroy the release device, and Chu Ran to block the backup exit.
• Ling Yi planned to lead the assault at twelve thirty and ordered the team to finish the operation within three minutes.

Ling Yi and his allies stopped the Kami Church from releasing the potion in Dafeng City, but a captured member revealed that the city was only a test site and that the Purification Protocol required an anchor device. The chapter ended with the threat of Bai Ye sending stronger reinforcements and Ling Yi learning a key detail about the protocol’s activation.

• Ling Yi, Bai Suzhen, White Bone Demon, and Chu Ran trapped eight Kami Church members in the shelter and destroyed the potion’s release system.
• A young First Tier revealed that Dafeng City was a testing ground for the Purification Protocol’s conversion efficiency, and that the head church planned to repeat the plan elsewhere.
• The short-haired man injected himself with concentrated Kami Potion, mutated into a Fourth Tier monster, and was killed by Ling Yi.
• Ling Yi absorbed the monster’s energy and warned the remaining members that Bai Ye would send at least a Fifth Tier to investigate and would leave them no use alive.
• A communications-team member revealed that activation required a fully charged crystal ball, Bai Ye’s authorization, and an anchor device placed at a specific location in the underground shelter at Dafeng City No. 3 Middle School.

Ling Yi found the Kami Church’s anchor device but could not destroy it without triggering its self-destruct mechanism, so he sealed it away and interrogated seven captured members. He learned that the Purification Protocol was nearly ready and that Bai Ye could be far stronger than a Seventh Tier esper.

• Ling Yi found the anchor device in a hidden room and learned that destroying it would obliterate everything within five hundred meters.
• Ling Yi ordered the seven captured espers to seal the hidden room and reinforced the wall with his energy before taking them to his apartment.
• Ling Yi interrogated Zhang Wei, who explained that the Purification Protocol would turn people into obedient “New Humans” under the Lord’s control.
• Zhang Wei said Bai Ye was a Seventh Tier esper empowered by the Lord, with combat strength possibly between the Eighth and Ninth Tiers.
• Zhang Wei revealed that Bai Ye was hiding somewhere in Dafeng City and that the crystal ball was ninety-seven percent charged.

Ling Yi sought a way to stop the Purification Protocol without confronting Bai Ye directly, and Bai Suzhen discovered that the school’s anchor device was a spatial formation that precisely guided the crystal ball’s energy. She proposed deceiving its positioning signal, but needed three days to study the gemstone while it would finish charging in two.

• Ling Yi remembered that Bai Ye had killed him in his previous life and decided to focus on stopping the Purification Plan by targeting the crystal ball and its connection to the anchor device.
• Ling Yi brought Bai Suzhen to the school basement, where they reopened the sealed room and examined the anchor device.
• Bai Suzhen identified the anchor device as an incomplete spatial formation disc that directed the crystal ball’s energy precisely at the school.
• Bai Suzhen suggested changing the gemstone’s positioning signal so the Purification Protocol would target the wrong area.
• Bai Suzhen estimated she needed three days to study the gemstone, so Ling Yi considered releasing the second layer of Sealing to help her work faster before the crystal ball finished charging.

Ling Yi released his second seal near the anchor gem, letting Bai Suzhen use its energy to analyze and shift the gem’s positioning coordinates away from Dafeng City No. 3 Middle School. He reached Mid-Sixth Tier, but warned Chu Ran that Bai Ye could recalibrate the device or use another method, leaving the real battle ahead.

• Ling Yi agreed to release his second seal beside the gem so Bai Suzhen could use its energy to analyze the device, while Chu Ran and White Bone guarded the room.
• Bai Suzhen guided the energy from Ling Yi’s breaking seal into the gem and discovered a positioning net centered on Dafeng City No. 3 Middle School.
• As the second seal shattered, Bai Suzhen shifted the gem’s central coordinates to an uninhabited area in Dafeng City’s eastern suburbs.
• Ling Yi stabilized at Mid-Sixth Tier, and Bai Suzhen said Bai Ye was unlikely to notice the altered coordinates unless he examined the gem himself.
• Ling Yi told Chu Ran that the change would keep the Purification Protocol from targeting the school, but Bai Ye could recalibrate it or choose another method.

Ling Yi returned to school after the battle and spent the day keeping up appearances while the anchor device remained under watch. Bai Ye discovered that Ling Yi had shifted the device’s positioning signal and agreed to confront him, with the Purification Protocol for Dafeng City at stake.

• Ling Yi ate breakfast, told Chu Ran to rest and handle the seven captives, then went to school to check on the device in the basement.
• Ling Yi passed the school’s detection device, completed an English practice paper, and had an uneventful day.
• Bai Ye found that the anchor device’s signal was normal but its coordinates pointed to an uninhabited area instead of Dafeng City No. 3 Middle School.
• The entity in the crystal ball said recalibration would take twelve hours and urged Bai Ye to meet Ling Yi when he came to stop it.
• Bai Ye agreed to probe Ling Yi and made the entity promise to terminate the Purification Protocol in Dafeng City if Bai Ye lost.

Ling Yi learned that Bai Ye was recalibrating the anchor device, leaving less than twelve hours before the Purification Protocol could target Dafeng City No. 3 Middle School. White Bone and Chu Ran investigated Bai Ye’s location, and he challenged Ling Yi to meet him at midnight.

• Ling Yi sensed a calibration signal from the eastern suburbs, and Bai Suzhen told him Bai Ye would finish recalibrating the anchor device in twelve to fifteen hours while the crystal ball was nearly charged.
• Bai Suzhen traced the signal’s source to an abandoned building in the old city district, about eight kilometers northwest of the relay point.
• White Bone and Chu Ran went to the building, where Chu Ran sensed Bai Ye on the top floor and revealed she wanted to ask him about her parents.
• Bai Ye saw through White Bone’s disguise, identified her as Ling Yi’s summoned entity, and revealed he had been waiting for Ling Yi.
• Bai Ye told White Bone and Chu Ran to tell Ling Yi to meet him there at midnight or the Purification Protocol would be forcibly activated.
• After White Bone and Chu Ran left, Bai Ye saw that the crystal ball was ninety-nine point eight percent charged and expected it to finish charging within two hours.

Ling Yi prepared to confront Bai Ye at the abandoned apartment building before the Purification Protocol activated, while Bai Suzhen stayed behind to interfere with the anchor device. At the meeting, Ling Yi and White Bone used the Technique of Changes to take Bai Ye’s appearance and began analyzing his ability.

• Ling Yi decided to go to the old district to prevent the Purification Protocol from endangering thousands of students and nearby residents, and White Bone and Chu Ran insisted on accompanying him.
• Bai Suzhen gave Ling Yi a recovery potion and stayed behind to try to shift the anchor device’s positioning signal during its second calibration.
• Ling Yi, White Bone, and Chu Ran reached the abandoned apartment building shortly before midnight, where Ling Yi detected Bai Ye alone on the top floor.
• Bai Ye attacked Ling Yi with Seventh Tier Pressure as soon as he arrived, but Ling Yi resisted and used the Technique of Changes to copy Bai Ye’s appearance.
• White Bone entered the room disguised as Bai Ye, creating three identical Bai Yes, and she and Ling Yi began using the Technique of Changes to analyze Bai Ye’s ability.

Ling Yi and his allies fought Bai Ye in the dark while trying to stall the crystal ball’s charge and give Bai Suzhen time to interfere with the anchor. The crystal ball reached full charge, and Ling Yi revealed that he came from another world where Bai Ye had killed him before, then began loosening his third seal.

• Bai Ye unleashed borrowed dark purple energy, but it could not devour Ling Yi or White Bone because they possessed the same energy.
• Chu Ran sent six Dark Shadow Clones into the room, plunging it into an Absolute Dark Domain that weakened Bai Ye’s perception.
• White Bone attacked Bai Ye but was badly injured by his counterstrike, while Ling Yi pierced Bai Ye’s shoulder and disrupted his superpower circulation for a second.
• Ling Yi sensed the crystal ball’s charge reach one hundred percent, and Bai Ye dispersed the shadows and announced that the Purification Protocol could be activated at any time.
• Ling Yi told Bai Ye that he came from another world where he had seen Bai Ye kill him, then began loosening the third seal within his body.
