Su Chen ordered the Utopia Alliance to attack Darkseid's Planet after its legions had recovered and the Fourth Legion had begun bringing Universe 1 under their control. The alliance used Steppenwolf's blood to activate the Mother Boxes and prepare a Boom Tube, while Su Chen set out the invasion's three echelons and planned to join the fighting.
Su Chen led the Utopia Alliance’s forces through the Boom Tubes to Darkseid’s Planet, where they faced Darkseid and his Parademon legions. Darkseid recognized that Steppenwolf had failed and prepared to unleash dormant forces as he approached Su Chen’s army.
Su Chen and the First and Third Legions confronted Darkseid on his planet, where Darkseid sent two Superman-like fighters to test Su Chen’s strength. Su Chen survived their combined attack without harm, while the battle between the legions began.
Su Chen defeated Bizarro and severely damaged Cyborg Superman while the Utopia Alliance's legions held their line against the Parademons. He then restrained Cyborg Superman and tore out his head and part of his spine, leaving the battle's outcome against Darkseid unresolved.
Su Chen confronted Darkseid in his palace after defeating Cyborg Superman and Bizarro, while the Utopia Alliance fought the Parademons outside. Darkseid’s psychic tactics briefly endangered the Alliance, but Su Chen struck him down and their clash unleashed a devastating shockwave across the battlefield.
Su Chen faced Darkseid in space and discovered that the Omega Beams could send their targets through parallel universes. As the beams carried him across those universes, Su Chen’s resistance to the Omega Effect rapidly increased.
Su Chen survived Darkseid’s Omega Beams and was cast into a zombie-infested parallel universe, but he used the path of the souls he had destroyed to return through the Goddess of Death’s Realm. He then recovered the Infinity Stones and jumped back to Apocalypse Star to resume his fight with Darkseid.
Su Chen used Darkseid’s Omega Beams to take them both into parallel universes, where he unleashed his power and destroyed worlds without restraint. As their battle shattered a universe, Su Chen’s resistance to the Omega Effect reached its maximum, leaving Darkseid unable to escape him.
Su Chen pursued Darkseid through collapsing parallel universes, stripped him of the Omega Effect, and stopped his attempt to unleash Doomsday as revenge. Using the Supreme Rings and his newly acquired Omega Effect, Su Chen prepared to return directly to Universe 1.
Su Chen crushed Darkseid’s forces on Apocalypse Star and carried the defeated ruler toward the super black hole to release Doomsday. There he encountered Brainiac, who recognized the danger posed by the Omega Effect.
Su Chen confronted Brainiac after defeating Darkseid and declared that he intended to release Doomsday from the supermassive black hole. Brainiac unleashed his enormous fleet against him, but Su Chen advanced unharmed and passed Brainiac without even treating him as an opponent.
Brainiac warned Su Chen that Doomsday was connected to the Great Beast, a cosmic force of destruction, but Su Chen entered the black hole and destroyed Doomsday with the Power of Creation. The Great Beast emerged across the universe and challenged Su Chen, who welcomed the fight.
After the Great Beast’s darkness engulfed universes, Su Chen fought to survive as his Power of Creation and Supreme Rings weakened. He stopped his body from developing darkness resistance, deciding that he needed to become completely unresistant to darkness instead.
Su Chen endured the primordial darkness while keeping his will intact and eventually wrested control of it from the Great Beast. He returned to Emma and the Utopia Legion, declaring that darkness throughout the multiverse now belonged to the Utopia Alliance.
