Chapters 976–984 Vol. 10 Read

Ch. 976[Relief]

Jabari visited Relief City and learned about its pursuit of freedom, while Su Luo and Yun Xiaoxiao later arrived and discovered the city’s strange purification rules. The chapter left Su Luo facing an order to be castrated for failing to meet the city’s requirements.

  • Jabari, using the alias Sabari, entered Relief City with a former young miss and learned that the Supreme Cities each followed their own Dao.
  • Jabari left a simulated aura of the Land of Darkness at the city entrance and heard that newcomers who lacked the required aptitude were forcibly purified.
  • Yun Xiaoxiao and Su Luo traveled through the Origin Realm and arrived at Relief City, where Su Luo sensed an unfamiliar Law affecting him.
  • Su Luo found Jabari’s message identifying him as a Silver Badge who had slain a Rainbow Badge, then continued to the Purification Pool.
  • An old man told Su Luo that those with fewer than a hundred instances would receive a full cut, and a tattooed young man approached with a purification knife.

Ch. 977Infinite Starfield

Su Luo investigated the Relief City's purification ritual and learned that newcomers were forced to change sex to receive the Supreme God's blessing. After entering the city, its curse targeted Yun Xiaoxiao instead of Su Luo, so he killed her and stored her body for later resurrection.

  • Su Luo used Heartfire to make the bloody-lined old man and the tattooed young man fall into an illusion, then questioned the old man about the city's purification ritual.
  • The old man explained that newcomers who failed to meet the city's requirements had to be castrated and changed sex to receive the Supreme God's blessing.
  • Su Luo learned that the Black man had gone to the Heart-Questioning Hall and ordered the old man to stop the security personnel from arresting him because Su Luo had sent him.
  • Su Luo and Yun Xiaoxiao entered Relief City, received fifth-tier Demigod starter packs, and triggered the city's Infinite Starfield curse.
  • The curse made Yun Xiaoxiao feel as if she were burning, so Su Luo killed her and stored her body in the Dreamscape after confirming the curse had not affected him.

Ch. 978Laws

Su Luo’s fourth Dao Mark mission required him to master an entirely new law, but he found he had already dabbled in every basic option. Meanwhile, the laboratory’s three plans to infiltrate the Deity Network took shape, and the group set off for an Abyss front line to investigate a local network.

  • Su Luo received a mission to master a law he had never explored, then discovered that every basic law had already been lit by his prior dabbling.
  • Dependent Number One Xiao Xiao Luo and Zuo Guxian argued over how to enter the Deity Network, whose multilayered firewall made brute force impractical.
  • Zuo Guxian and the Observer planned a four-dimensional breach, Dependent Number Two Xiao Xiao Luo proposed finding the main server, and Luoluola suggested targeting a local network near the Abyss.
  • The group decided to pursue all three infiltration plans and sent the laboratory toward an Abyss front line 374 light-years away.
  • Dependent Number Two Xiao Xiao Luo bought Su Luo law-related resources and cards, then began a jump toward the front line.

Ch. 979Illusion Realm

Su Luo entered the Heart-Questioning Hall and was drawn into an Illusion Realm that made him live an ordinary life through decades of world upheaval and into old age. He awoke having passed the introductory trial and received a Talent Advancement Card (B), while an unknown man explained the temple’s test.

  • Su Luo learned that Fan Gao, the son of Grand Councilor Fan Kong, had come to challenge the Heart-Questioning Hall, then entered the hall himself.
  • The supreme god’s Law pulled Su Luo into an Illusion Realm, where he remembered Silent Illumination and found himself living as a college student in the modern world.
  • Su Luo built a quiet life, watched wars and technological change reshape the world, and lived to the age of 137.
  • Su Luo woke in the Heart-Questioning Hall, received a Talent Advancement Card (B) for passing the introductory trial, and heard a man explain that remembering the temple’s name was enough to clear the entrance test.

Ch. 980Collapse

Su Luo and Jabari discussed the Heart-Questioning Hall and exchanged information about their Talents before Jabari began its trial. Suspecting that the world was an evolving Illusion Realm, Su Luo used the Evolution-Nullification Law to make it collapse.

  • Jabari told Su Luo that the Heart-Questioning Hall had four trials, with the final reward offering a visit to a Supreme God's Divine Kingdom.
  • Su Luo and Jabari reached the mountain stairs, where Fan Gao was climbing, and Jabari explained how the perseverance trial worked.
  • Su Luo and Jabari exchanged Talent information; Jabari called his Talent Absolute Domination and described his control over himself.
  • Jabari strode up the stairs and disappeared beyond the clouds while Su Luo waited below.
  • Su Luo realized the Illusion Realm was evolving to match his wishes and spread Black Heartfire across the world with the Evolution-Nullification Law, causing it to collapse.

Ch. 981Silent Illumination Illusion Realm

Su Luo realized the Silent Illumination Illusion Realm rebuilt itself whenever he escaped, and began repeatedly breaking its layers to learn how to use its Law. Meanwhile, Xiao Luo escaped its own illusion and took control of Su Luo’s body, finding Jabari and the battered Fan Kong at the Heart-Questioning Hall’s summit.

  • Su Luo broke through the apparent first trial, then recognized that each new reality was another layer of the Silent Illumination Illusion Realm.
  • Su Luo concluded that the Law trapped its victims either in convincing illusions or in endless doubt, but chose to keep challenging it and study its evolving power.
  • Xiao Luo passed its simple Illusion Realm and took control of Su Luo’s body, discovering that Su Luo remained trapped in a powerful, composite Law.
  • Xiao Luo met Jabari at the summit, where Jabari explained that the Origin Council had lured him to the Heart-Questioning Hall to investigate and test him.
  • Xiao Luo saw the beaten Fan Kong and identified the hall’s statue as a Ring Lord with abilities to read intruders and create personalized law-level Illusion Realms.

Ch. 982Deity Statue

Su Luo remained inside the Heart-Questioning Hall to let his Evolution study its Laws, while Jabari discussed Dao Marks and planned to kill a Supreme God. Elsewhere, the Laboratory headed for the Abyss Frontline but was caught in the grasp of a being fighting in the Void.

  • Su Luo examined the Deity Statue and concluded that the Heart-Questioning Hall trapped trial-takers in an Illusion Realm that turned them into puppets, while Jabari remained unaffected.
  • Su Luo declined Jabari's offer of help so his Evolution could study the unfamiliar Laws, and explained how a Dao Mark split off a False Timeline.
  • Jabari said Wu Mengxi had risen directly to Initial Lord after using a Dao Mark, and planned to start by killing a Supreme God.
  • Kin Number One Xiao Xiao Luo grew stronger among the Void Zerg while Kin Number Two Xiao Xiao Luo piloted the Laboratory toward the Abyss Frontline.
  • After the Laboratory detected two beings fighting in the Void, one formed a Star-Flipping Palm that seized its opponent and the Laboratory, prompting Kin Number Two Xiao Xiao Luo to wonder why he had spoken in Chinese.

Ch. 983[Venerable Lord]

Kin Number Two, Xiao Xiao Luo, identified Ye Fan as the person fighting a colossal Greater Demon and fortified the Laboratory as the two Star-Covering Palms struck. When the Greater Demon tried to escape, Xiao Xiao Luo locked down space, trapping Him in the palms’ refining zone, but His Devil’s Gaze then fell on the Laboratory.

  • Kin Number Two, Xiao Xiao Luo, traced the attacker’s identity to Ye Fan and sent him a warning while preparing the Laboratory’s defenses.
  • The Laboratory deployed tens of thousands of Micro Black Holes as a defensive net while Kin Number Two examined the Greater Demon fighting Ye Fan.
  • The two Star-Covering Palms passed over the unharmed Laboratory and began refining the Greater Demon.
  • Kin Number One, Xiao Xiao Luo, sensed the Greater Demon was about to flee, and Kin Number Two activated Spatial Lockdown to trap Him.
  • The trapped Greater Demon turned His scarlet gaze on the Laboratory with Devil’s Gaze, which only Kin Number One and Kin Number Two could withstand.

Ch. 984Guess

Ye Fan visited the Scholar’s Laboratory, praised its development, and gave Xiao Xiao Luo a Greater Demon to study. After learning that Su Luo was in Relief City and that the Laboratory was trying to crack the Deity Network, Ye Fan decided to travel with them toward the Abyss.

  • The Laboratory burned incoming negative emotions into Source Essence and refined the Greater Demon for three days until he was reduced to a weakened shell.
  • Ye Fan entered the Laboratory and compared the newborn plane to a level-twelve Sanctuary, noting that Sanctuaries mainly served as logistics for top Survivors.
  • Ye Fan explained that he had arrived through an avatar, and Kin Number Two, Xiao Xiao Luo, sent him a compendium of Great Holy Spirit technology while warning him about the corrosive effects of the Scholar’s knowledge.
  • Ye Fan captured the Greater Demon’s escaping remnant soul and gave it to the Xiao Xiao Luos for study.
  • Kin Number Two, Xiao Xiao Luo, told Ye Fan that Su Luo was in Relief City with Jabari and had assigned them to crack the Deity Network.
  • Ye Fan said he would travel with the Xiao Xiao Luos toward the Abyss, then refused to reveal his survival Talent and said it was not the simulator they suspected.
