Ling Yi, Xia Qianran, and Su Mu discussed sharing Ling Yi’s ability and how to use it to save more people. Xia Qianran suggested cooperating with the authorities so they could test whether the ability worked remotely and use it to prevent deaths.

• Su Mu asked Ling Yi how she could keep her Simulation memories, and he said sharing his ability would only work in the real world.
• Ling Yi questioned how Su Mu could prove she would remain loyal, and Su Mu playfully pretended she wanted to sleep with him to help Xia Qianran.

After Wangtian Mountain was sealed and the mercenaries were captured, Ling Yi told Zhang Jinman he could see other people’s Death Previews and shared the power with him so he could test it. Zhang Jinman went to verify the ability, while Ling Yi and Xia Qianran checked their phones and found a livestream that caught Ling Yi’s attention.

• While waiting in detention, Su Mu, Ling Yi, and Xia Qianran discussed a cheating couple who had wandered off at Wangbao Mountain and starved to death after getting lost.

• A female investigator returned their belongings and brought dumplings, and Ling Yi spotted something intriguing in a young woman’s livestream.

Ling Yi shared his Death Countdown and Death Preview abilities with Su Mu and worried that sharing them in Simulation Rescue might affect people in the real world. Zhang Jinman used the shared abilities to lead a successful operation against the remaining Death God Mercenary Corps members.

• Ling Yi shared his ability with Su Mu and realized Sharing consumed some energy from his left eye, so he decided not to share it again until he knew whether it affected reality.
• Xia Qianran suggested that the energy in Ling Yi's eye worked like experience points, while Su Mu used all seventeen of the day's Death Previews.

Xia Qianran consolidated her control of the Xia family after the authorities arrested Lin Ying, Xia Lan, Lu Chen, and the assassins, then discussed Ling Yi’s goal of saving more people without attracting attention. The chapter ended as Su Mu suggested sharing Ling Yi’s ability secretly during Simulation Rescue.

• Xia Qianran thanked Zhang Jinman as authorities arrested the assassins and members of the Xia family, including Lin Ying, Xia Lan, and Lu Chen.
• Xia Qianran and Su Mu concluded that Zhang Jinman probably had not retained his memories, though he was suspicious of their role in recent events.

• Xia Qianran proposed that Ling Yi secretly share his ability with people in the authorities so they could help him save more people.
• Su Mu suggested that Ling Yi secretly share his ability during Simulation Rescue.

Su Mu, Xia Qianran, and Ling Yi established a plan for recruiting and regulating people who could use Ling Yi’s shared abilities, tentatively naming them Rescuers. Ling Yi revealed that Contract Brands could carry rules and provide benefits, and he proposed using Time Stop to distribute them while keeping his identity hidden.

• Su Mu, Xia Qianran, and Ling Yi chose the provisional name Rescuers and agreed to recruit vetted official personnel with Uncle Zhang’s help.
• Xia Qianran warned that Rescuers could misuse Death Previews and argued that they needed benefits to motivate them to save people.
• Ling Yi explained that his Contract Brands could retain energy for Rescuers, transmit voices, store information, and carry their rules.
• Su Mu suggested mailing the energy, but Ling Yi said he would need to hand out the Contract Brands himself and proposed using Time Stop during delivery.
• Ling Yi proposed building the rules around his four existing restrictions, and Xia Qianran asked how Contract Brands could prevent Rescuers from breaking them.

Ling Yi and Xia Qianran discussed Guxia New Energy’s military contract and the growing success of the savior program before parting ways. While searching for a new source of experience points, Ling Yi spotted a schoolgirl marked to die that day and activated his Death Preview.

• Xia Qianran ordered Su Mu to publicize Guxia New Energy’s military order and leak the performance specifications of its third-generation vehicles to undermine rival families.
• Ling Yi told Xia Qianran that the 500 chosen inspectors and soldiers were already using Death Previews, and that their work could earn him increasing energy.
• Xia Qianran explained that she would be busy launching new products, fulfilling the military order, and dealing with problems left by Xia Boundless and Xia Hao.
• Ling Yi left headquarters and searched for someone with a Death Countdown, finding fewer than during the recent disasters.
• At a bus stop, Ling Yi saw a Dafeng City Private School High School student with a dark red zero above her head and used his left eye to view her Death Preview.

Ling Yi used his Death Preview to anticipate a bomb on the No. 77 bus, but the Dafeng City Investigation Bureau defused it before he acted. He then discovered that Chu Zhao was destined to die in eight days and began suspecting that her biological sister, Chu Xi, was hiding a secret.

• Police officers boarded the No. 77 bus, arrested an old woman carrying a bomb, and defused it, saving the passengers.
• Ling Yi saw that the girl beside him, Chu Zhao, had a new death countdown of eight and used Simulation Rescue to learn about her future.
• Ling Yi learned that Chu Zhao was the adopted daughter of the wealthy Chu Family and that her biological sister, Chu Xi, had transformed the family’s fortunes.
• Ling Yi discovered that Chu Xi and Chu Zhao’s parents abused Chu Zhao, and that Chu Zhao would jump from the school rooftop after Chu Xi arranged to humiliate her.
• Ling Yi wondered whether Chu Xi was a reincarnator or had access to another mysterious treasure, while Chu Zhao boarded the next No. 77 bus.

Ling Yi learned that Chu Xi planned to kill Chu Zhao so she could become a vessel for Lord Death God, then vowed to stop the resurrection. After his left eye burned, a flood of memories struck him and he passed out.

• Ling Yi asked Su Mu for an untraceable short-video account and told her about Chu Xi, whose arrival had coincided with Chu Tianxiong’s sudden wealth and stock-market success.
• Su Mu gave Ling Yi an account on the Slow Foot Platform that could keep videos online for up to three days.
• Ling Yi bought more than two thousand miniature cameras and used Time Stop to place them around Dafeng City Private School and inside Chu Tianxiong’s home.
• Ling Yi’s cameras revealed that Chu Xi planned to kill Chu Zhao on the full moon eight days later so Chu Zhao’s pure soul could become a vessel for Lord Death God.
• Ling Yi decided he could not allow Lord Death God to be resurrected, but his left eye suddenly burned and he passed out after memories flooded his mind.

Ling Yi learned more about Yuan Luo and the Mountain and Sea Continent from his memory fragments, then investigated why his left eye had gained so much experience. He found a way to help his right eye grow and went to meet Chu Xi to uncover the Death God’s connection to the past.

• Ling Yi learned that Yuan Luo was the tenth god of the Mountain and Sea Continent, wielded the Dao of Devouring, and had challenged the nine gods, though his memories left the outcome unclear.
• Ling Yi discovered that his left eye had gained Illusion and stronger Death Preview abilities, and learned that a rescuer’s mission had saved more than sixty thousand lives.
• Ling Yi asked Xia Qianran and Su Mu how he could gain experience for his right eye, and they suggested executioners and execution supervisors.
• Ling Yi used Simulation Rescue to share Death Preview with more than two hundred judicial police officers across the country.
• Ling Yi went to the roof of Dafeng City Private School to meet Chu Xi on the day Chu Zhao was expected to jump, hoping to learn about the Death God.

Chu Zhao killed Chu Xi after discovering his plan to spread humiliating photos, while Ling Yi caught her when she jumped from the rooftop. Ling Yi returned Chu Zhao to the roof and revealed that the apparent Death God intended to absorb both of their bodies.

• Chu Xi taunted Chu Zhao and revealed that he planned to post her photos online, while the Death God spoke through him about turning her into a vengeful spirit.
• Chu Zhao attacked Chu Xi with a brick and killed him, then walked off the rooftop.
• A shadow rose from Chu Xi’s corpse and transformed into a woman resembling a fusion of Yuan Luo and the Death God, prompting Ling Yi to question her identity.
• Ling Yi caught Chu Zhao, stopped time, and carried her back to the rooftop, explaining that the Death God did not belong to their world.
• The apparent Death God said that absorbing the Extremely Impure Body and Extremely Pure Body would restore a tenth of her strength.

Ling Yi learned how the Extremely Impure Body and Extremely Pure Body could transform after death, then used a Death God Seal to control the Death God. The Death God’s identity emerged as Yuan Luo, whose soul had fused with the Death God’s while crossing worlds, and Ling Yi asked how to return to the North Sea Continent.

• Ling Yi recalled that Chu Xi had an Extremely Impure Body and Chu Zhao had an Extremely Pure Body, whose resentment could turn them into Supremely Pure Resentful Spirits after death.
• The Death God waited for Chu Zhao to become a Supremely Pure Resentful Spirit, then searched the rooftop and wondered if Chu Zhao had survived her fall.
• Ling Yi attached a Death God Seal to the Death God, froze her when she charged at him, and confirmed that she could not undo the seal.
• Ling Yi asked whether to call her Yuan Luo or the Death God, causing her identity and appearance to shift as she recognized herself as Yuan Luo, the God of Greed.
• Yuan Luo explained that her soul had fused with the Death God’s during their crossing between worlds and that they had stored their ten thousand years of memories in the Eye of the Death God.
• Ling Yi asked Yuan Luo whether there was a way to return to the North Sea Continent.

Ling Yi tried to secure control over the weakened Yuan Luo, but she tore out the Death God Seal and attempted to escape. After he stopped her with a time power and discovered memory fragments could fuse to reveal Time Reversal, he questioned Yuan Luo about the nine gods and the source of his time abilities.

• Ling Yi questioned Yuan Luo about how the Death God followed her and demanded absolute control over her before sharing the Eye of the Death God's abilities.
• Yuan Luo explained that she had left Chu Xi's shell and now depended on the Eye of the Death God's power to survive, but Ling Yi decided she was too dangerous to keep alive.
• Ling Yi activated the Death God Seal to make Yuan Luo self-destruct, but she tore the seal from her heart and tried to flee.
• Ling Yi used Time Stop on Yuan Luo, then fused memory fragments that revealed information about Time Reversal.
• Ling Yi brought Yuan Luo back and asked how many of the nine gods she had killed; Yuan Luo said she did not know and questioned whether all her memories were really with him.

• Ling Yi rejected Yuan Luo's offer to make a deal and left the River of Time to focus on Chu Zhao.
• Ling Yi shared his abilities with Chu Zhao, placed a Death God Seal on her, and ended the Simulation Rescue.
• Ling Yi entered another River of Time and met Chu Zhao, who remembered a week's worth of future events and wanted to know whether she could act as she pleased.

• Xia Qianran and Su Mu called Ling Yi and joined his dungeon party, while Ling Yi told Chu Zhao about his abilities.
• Chu Zhao learned the Rescuer rules and accepted that she was now a Rescuer.

• Xia Qianran and Su Mu arrived at the Chu Family villa with Death Countdowns above their heads, and Chu Zhao used Death Preview to see their perilous futures.
• Ling Yi told Xia Qianran and Su Mu that Chu Xi contained a god's soul from another world and explained what he knew about Yuan Luo, the Death God, and the Eye of the Death God.
• Xia Qianran and Su Mu questioned how Yuan Luo crossed over, moved between hosts, and left accessible memories in the Eye of the Death God.
• Xia Qianran suggested Yuan Luo and the Eye of the Death God might be part of a scheme by the Nine Gods to escape the Mountain and Sea Continent.
• Ling Yi and the others followed Chu Zhao into Chu Xi's room, where Chu Xi sensed the Eye of the Death God and challenged how Ling Yi could use it.

Ling Yi tested whether the Death God Seal could control Yuan Luo through Chu Xi and discovered that Chu Xi could also restrain Yuan Luo herself. He left Chu Xi under Chu Zhao’s control, just as Chu Zhao’s adoptive parents arrived and asked what was happening.

• Ling Yi used the Death God Seal on Chu Xi’s soul and ordered Yuan Luo to leave her body before his countdown ended.
• Yuan Luo tried to leave Chu Xi, but Chu Xi dragged her back and revealed she could force Yuan Luo to obey her.
• Chu Xi and Yuan Luo fought over control of the body until Yuan Luo surrendered and called Chu Xi her big sister.
• Ling Yi ordered Chu Xi to obey Chu Zhao, and Chu Zhao accepted her as her little sister.
• Chu Tianxiong and his wife arrived, saw the strangers in Chu Xi’s room, and asked Chu Zhao what was going on.

Ling Yi questioned Yuan Luo about her arrival and learned that her memories were too incomplete to explain the timeline. He decided to keep developing the Eye of the Death God, and its shared law enforcers began earning experience points.

• Chu Xi told Father and Mother Chu to slap each other a hundred times daily to preserve their wealth, and they left to discuss it.
• Ling Yi had Chu Xi hand control to Yuan Luo, then questioned her about when she had transmigrated and how she came to be inside Chu Xi.
• Yuan Luo said she had arrived three years earlier, but the Eye of the Death God had reached the world before her and the Death God, whose memories had been stored inside it.
• Yuan Luo said she had spent two years half-asleep and undergoing nirvana in Chu Xi before waking fully a year earlier, and she could answer little else.
• Ling Yi told Xia Qianran he would either stop using the Eye and withdraw his Sharing or develop its abilities and control it, and he chose to get stronger.
• Ling Yi felt burning pain in his right eye as the two hundred law enforcers he had shared began earning experience points by refusing to rescue people from death.

Ling Yi and his teammates discussed the Nine Gods’ memories and abilities in the Eye of the Death God, then planned to use a cross-time Rescuer chat group to improve rescues. After watching Xia Qianran’s latest Death Preview, Ling Yi sprang up in shock.

• Ling Yi showed the group memory fragments and explained that his Eye of the Death God carried the Nine Gods’ abilities, while Yuan Luo’s memories remained dominant.
• Chu Xi suggested Yuan Luo had used the Nine Gods as pawns, and Xia Qianran worried their memories might change Ling Yi; he said his own memories still dominated.
• Chu Zhao theorized that Yuan Luo and the Death God had worked together before Yuan Luo betrayed the Death God, while Su Mu dismissed the theory and Ling Yi agreed not to overthink the Eye’s origins.
• Ling Yi explained that he planned to open a Rescuer chat group that could connect people across time and space, and said it had to be activated in a dungeon.
• Ling Yi watched Xia Qianran’s new Death Preview and abruptly stood up in shock.

Ling Yi entered the River of Time to investigate why his Death Preview showed him killing Xia Qianran and Su Mu, only for Yuan Luo’s memories to consume the Nine Gods’ memories and take control of his body. Trapped as a consciousness without his powers, Ling Yi questioned Yuan Luo and learned that the Yuan Luo inside Chu Xi was only a remnant consciousness.

• Ling Yi saw that his Death Previews showed him strangling Xia Qianran and Su Mu, and the group realized something was wrong with his state.
• Ling Yi activated Simulation Rescue, entered the River of Time, and saw possible futures and Causality Lines as the Nine Gods’ memories began to fuse.

• Ling Yi realized Yuan Luo had taken the Nine Gods’ memory fragments and the Eye of the Death God’s ability, leaving him powerless.

Ling Yi learned that the memories in his mind had resurrected Yuan Luo, who revealed that she was actually Yin Wanqing. After they separated, Ling Yi returned to the Ling Realm with her, while his remaining allies discovered that the death crisis had passed and most of the Eye of the Death God's abilities were gone.

• Yuan Luo explained that the Nine Gods had planned to escape the Mountain and Sea Continent and that she had once injured its World Consciousness.
• Xia Qianran deduced that Ling Yi's memories had resurrected the real Yuan Luo, who revealed that she was Yin Wanqing.
• Ling Yi and Yin Wanqing split from their Clones and vanished to the Ling Realm as time resumed around the others.
• Ling Yi's Clone found that the Eye of the Death God had lost the other eight gods' inherited abilities, and Xia Qianran and Su Mu's Death Countdowns disappeared.
• Ling Yi and Yin Wanqing discussed how her appearance had derailed the plot, then agreed to transmigrate separately, with Yin Wanqing following him afterward.

After divorcing Bai Xiaoqing over her infidelity, Ling Yi quit his job at Qingmeng Media despite Bai Xiaomeng's objections. As he left the company, he awakened the Life Script System and generated a script for Bai Xiaomeng, but had not yet viewed it.
