Shisui tested Ruolan Star’s ability to interfere with him and learned that the planet could not safely wield its full power while its Planetary Will remained dormant. After Ruolan Star offered him the Planetary Will position, Shisui dropped his gentle act and insulted the planet.

• Shisui explained that he wanted to help Ruolan Star while privately planning to hunt prey and protect his food supply.
• Ruolan Star told Shisui it distrusted him and blamed him for taking the Banshee Sea Demon, which it had planned to use to repair the Planetary Will.
• Shisui called the Banshee Sea Demon prey he had claimed, and Ruolan Star gathered storm clouds but let its lightning disperse without striking him.
• Ruolan Star offered Shisui the position of Planetary Will, hoping to secure his cooperation until the dormant Planetary Will recovered.
• Shisui realized Ruolan Star could not control its power well, revealed his Kakugan, and mocked the planet as useless.

Shisui enraged Ruolan Star, escaped its search, and was declared a target for extermination. As the races investigated him, Jin Yuxi found an old wanted notice that matched Shisui and secretly mailed it away, while Li Nai'an accepted a mission to escort Miao Xingyu toward the unknown Heaven-Controlling Realm expert.

• Shisui mocked Ruolan Star, absorbed its lightning and Psychic Energy, then vanished before the planet could locate him.
• Ruolan Star ordered the Human Race, Demon Race, Sea Race, and Insect Mother to exterminate Shisui, prompting the other Heaven-Controlling Realm experts to question when an alien had appeared.
• Jin Yuxi recognized Shisui in an old Human Race wanted notice and secretly collected and mailed it away under the Motherly Silk's surveillance.
• Li Nai'an learned she would escort Miao Xingyu to investigate a Heaven-Controlling Realm expert, with Hu Lingling and an elite Undying Legion unit on standby.
• Li Nai'an accepted the assignment after learning Miao Xingyu was the test subject who could return from the dead.

Li Nai'an received a mission to find a Heaven-Controlling Realm target in Willow City and was assigned Miao Xingyu as her companion. The target, Shisui, had already destroyed Willow City, and Li Nai'an prepared to depart for the devastated area.

• A personal guard delivered Li Nai'an the target's location and mission equipment, then introduced Miao Xingyu as her companion.
• Li Nai'an recognized Miao Xingyu as a Wanren Laboratory test subject whose Nine Lives Cat talent revived him at the cost of his cultivation, and told him they would leave in three minutes.
• Shisui appeared above Willow City and used a Chain Bomb to break the city's barrier and trigger a second explosion inside the city.
• Willow City's garrison split between rescuing the city and confronting Shisui, but his Kakugan crushed the attackers and flattened the city, including its underground shelters.

Shisui discovered that Miao Xingyu could recover from death and sensed Li Nai'an and a powerful Demon Race army nearby. After luring the group into a fog field that drained Psychic Energy, he trapped them as the Demon Race expert Jiqu met with Human and Sea Race experts elsewhere.

• Shisui stopped the Chain Bombs and absorbed the Psychic Energy from Willow City, while Li Nai'an and Miao Xingyu headed out with Hu Lingling and the Undying Legion elites following behind.
• Hu Lingling reflected on the Undying Legion's longing to die at the hands of a powerful enemy and her own wish for someone to destroy all intelligent life.
• Shisui severed Miao Xingyu's throat with a Radiant Feather, then used his Kakugan to see Miao Xingyu's soul restoring his body and detected Li Nai'an and the nearby Demon Race army.
• Shisui finished absorbing Willow City's energy and left; Li Nai'an retrieved Miao Xingyu's body and head and returned to the army.
• A thick fog surrounded the Demon Race army, and Hu Lingling ordered a retreat as the fog began draining Psychic Energy.
• Jiqu spoke with Heaven-Controlling Realm experts from the Human Race and the Sea Race within the Ten-Thousand-Blade Mountain Range.

Jiqu joined the Dragon King and Suo Qiaoyun in discussing an alliance against the Ghouls. In Willow City, Shisui overwhelmed the demons, but Li Nai'an’s exposed brain released a strange power that Suo Qiaoyun sensed from Kaiyang Continent.

• Jiqu interrupted the Dragon King and Suo Qiaoyun and proposed that the three races cooperate against the Ghouls.
• Shisui appeared before Hu Lingling’s squad and broke through her defense, exposing Li Nai'an and Miao Xingyu.
• Li Nai'an cut herself to awaken the blood-drinking vines and ordered the demons to run.
• Shisui crushed Li Nai'an’s skull, then tore out her brain as the vines withered and a red lotus bloomed on it.
• Suo Qiaoyun sensed the lotus’s energy from Kaiyang Continent and wondered what it was.

Suo Qiaoyun sensed the Yuwen Family’s Blood Lotus near Willow City, while Shisui contained Li Nai'an’s escaping brain and suspected it had stumbled upon hidden Demon Race dealings. Jiqu recognized Li Nai'an as a surviving Wanren Laboratory experiment, and the chapter explained how the Demon Race had captured Yuwen descendants to create Undying Cell subjects.

• Suo Qiaoyun followed the Blood Lotus scent toward Willow City but found her Heaven-Controlling Realm senses blocked by Shisui’s fog.
• Li Nai'an’s brain severed part of its tissue, broke free from Shisui, and darted toward its fallen body.
• Jiqu attacked Shisui’s fog wall, and Shisui used Radiant Feathers to seal off Li Nai'an’s body and surround the brain.
• Jiqu recognized the Blood Lotus as the result of a Wanren Laboratory project and remembered Li Nai'an as its finished product.
• The Demon Race had hunted the Yuwen Family for its Blood Lotus healing talent, captured its descendants, and fused nearly fifteen children with Undying Cells; Li Nai'an was the only one still alive.

Shisui ambushed Jiqu after the Blood Lotus fragrance threatened to expose the Demon Race’s experiments on humans. Suo Qiaoyun rejected cooperation with the Demon Race, but Jiqu’s sudden move left her facing a pair of blood-red Kakugan and searing pain.

• Jiqu attacked Shisui’s mist to destroy evidence, but Shisui emerged and wounded him with Radiant Feathers and Rc Cells.
• Jiqu transformed into a giant sea urchin and tried to escape, but Shisui cut into him and redirected his route toward Suo Qiaoyun.
• Shisui placed Li Nai'an’s body between Jiqu and Suo Qiaoyun, then hid to observe their encounter.
• Suo Qiaoyun decided that the Demon Race’s experiments and their likely future betrayal made cooperation impossible.
• Jiqu sprang backward as Suo Qiaoyun questioned him, and she saw blood-red Kakugan before pain erupted through her body.

Shisui overwhelmed Jiqu and forced him to abandon his body, then turned his attention to Suo Qiaoyun. Jiqu’s apparent death left Shisui suspicious, while Suo Qiaoyun faced the Predator alone.

• Shisui attacked Suo Qiaoyun with his Kakugan, but Jiqu rescued her and engaged him.
• Shisui blasted apart Jiqu’s body and used Feather Powder and his Bikaku to devour the scattered Undying Cells.
• Suo Qiaoyun recovered from the soul attack, made a safe space with Motherly Silk, and tried to reach Jiqu through the Feather Powder.
• Shisui’s Bikaku tore Jiqu apart, and Jiqu concealed his escape by transferring his soul toward the Ten-Thousand-Blade Mountain Range.
• Shisui sensed Jiqu’s apparent death, wondered how he had fallen so quickly, and turned to Suo Qiaoyun.

Shisui overcame Suo Qiaoyun’s defenses and poisoned her, causing her control over the Bound Captives to weaken across the continents. As Suo Qiaoyun lay unable to act, the Bound Captives began preparing to resist her and hoped she would not survive.

• Suo Qiaoyun held off Shisui’s attacks with Motherly Silk and tried to persuade him to ally with other Heaven-Controlling Realm experts, but the Dragon King refused to come to her aid.
• Shisui tore through the space protected by the Motherly Silk, appeared behind Suo Qiaoyun, and stabbed her through the heart with his scorpion tail.
• Shisui’s venom and Rc Cells spread through Suo Qiaoyun, weakening her and causing the Motherly Silk binding the Bound Captives to decay.
• In Zi City, Jin Yuxi realized Suo Qiaoyun was in danger and resolved to warn the Bound Captives to resist her rather than let her drain their life force.
• On Lantiao Continent, Yan Fei halted his team’s advance and led them back to their temporary camp after realizing Suo Qiaoyun’s control had weakened.
• In southern Huaihuang Continent, Suo Qiaoyun could neither move nor use Psychic Energy as the Bound Captives grew restless and hoped she would die.

As Shisui drained Suo Qiaoyun, her anger led her to draw power from the Bound Captives, but they had already begun resisting her control. Yan Fei and Lu Qianyu helped spread the call to rebel, and the chapter ended as Suo Qiaoyun’s punishment triggered a struggle over the Bound Captives’ life force.

• Suo Qiaoyun heard the Bound Captives celebrating her possible death and grew furious as Shisui restrained and poisoned her.
• Suo Qiaoyun tried to draw power from the Bound Captives, but Shisui’s Rc Cells intercepted much of the energy.
• Yan Fei thanked Lu Qianyu for helping spread the message to break the chains or resist the extraction of power.
• Lu Qianyu joined the rebellion after losing faith in the Human Race high command and used his intelligence network to spread the call.
• The Bound Captives began resisting Suo Qiaoyun’s attempt to take their life force, and her punishment descended.

Shisui used toxin to drive Suo Qiaoyun’s Bound Captives into risking their lives against her. Jin Yuxi led a wave of soul-bearing energy attacks that exploded beside Suo Qiaoyun’s soul, and Shisui prepared to finish her off.

• Shisui sent [Bone-Deep Rot] through Suo Qiaoyun’s golden threads and into the Bound Captives, unnoticed as they struggled against her energy drain.
• Jin Yuxi remembered his parents and younger brother, and the memories turned his anger toward Suo Qiaoyun into a resolve to take revenge.
• Jin Yuxi attached a fragment of his severed soul to condensed energy and let Suo Qiaoyun draw it into her body.
• Jin Yuxi’s soul fragment exploded beside Suo Qiaoyun’s soul, jolting her out of her blank, self-protective state.
• Energy balls from many Bound Captives surged toward Suo Qiaoyun’s soul and exploded inside her body, and Shisui recognized that it was time to kill her.

Shisui killed Suo Qiaoyun, freeing the Bound Captives and plunging the Human Race into political upheaval. As former captives declared independence, Jiqu and the Insect Mother prepared to seize Human Race territory.

• Shisui used his kakugan to isolate and devour Suo Qiaoyun's brain while her soul was dazed, killing her.
• Jin Yuxi waited until Suo Qiaoyun's presence vanished and his chain broke, then died as the Bound Captives celebrated.
• The freed Bound Captives staged coups across Human Race settlements, and most declared independence within ten minutes of Suo Qiaoyun's death.
• Jiqu revived at Wanren Laboratory and ordered Demon Race armies stationed along Human Race territory to advance.
• The Insect Mother learned of Chen City's independence, realized the Human Race's Heaven-Controlling Realm expert was dead, and prepared to plunder Human Race settlements.

Shisui finished digesting Suo Qiaoyun’s energy and sampled the demons trapped in the mist, while the Human Race’s political turmoil intensified. He killed Hu Lingling at her request and left Miao Xingyu sealed away for [Fire Thief] to extract his [Nine Lives Cat] talent.

• Shisui ate a spoonful of Li Nai'an’s brain, then regretted that Suo Qiaoyun had destroyed the Yuwen Family and ended his supply of the delicacy.
• Shisui tasted several ordinary demons, found them unremarkable, and turned them into Flesh Crystals.
• Shisui put Miao Xingyu into a coma, attached [Fire Thief] to his soul, sealed him in Koukaku, and stored him in an alternate space to extract [Nine Lives Cat].
• Hu Lingling asked Shisui to eat her so she could help kill the Demon Race’s Heaven-Controlling Realm experts, and Shisui snapped her neck.
• The Human Race’s internal turmoil worsened, and factions in its high command began questioning why they had to share power.

After the Golden Silk Chain was destroyed, Chou City declared independence, and the Human Race Council in Zi City fell into turmoil. Aristocratic families launched missiles toward Chou City and killed the two young men who had pressed the launch buttons.

• The freed Yinling Sect members rallied against the Human Race Council, and Chou City declared independence half an hour after the chains broke.
• Councilors in Zi City maneuvered to win support as sect forces considered how to seize power.
• Aristocratic families took control of a Citroën Company weapons warehouse and decided to destroy Chou City with its missiles.
• A young aristocratic scion stabbed the councilor after he activated the missile launch buttons, then cut his own throat as the missiles rose into the sky.

Shisui watched a missile barrage devastate Chou City and shake Kaiyang Continent, then revealed his plan to consume the intelligent races. The planet tried to restrain him, but Shisui stopped its psychic energy and declared that it had no right to refuse.

• Shisui watched missiles approach Chou City as its residents fled and awakened leaders raised a psychic energy barrier.
• A barrage overwhelmed the barrier, destroyed Chou City, and unleashed blasts that tore through the land and destabilized the planet.
• Shisui said the races would keep damaging the world and vowed to help himself by eating them all.
• The planet unleashed psychic energy to restrain Shisui as the explosions shook Kaiyang Continent and sent tremors through Moonfall Continent.
• Shisui halted the planet's psychic energy with a greater force and told it that it had no right to refuse.

As settlements united against the Human Race Council, Yan Fei warned that foreign invaders remained a threat but decided to leave the uprising army. In Zi City, Lu Qianyu organized an attack on a Council meeting, where explosions tore through the hall and killed numerous members.

• Yan Fei reminded the Layered Peaks City uprising army that the foreign races were still a danger, but the city lord dismissed his warning as less urgent than Zi City.
• Yan Fei decided to find a way out of the immature resistance and hoped Lu Qianyu and their former Bound Captive companions would avoid rash choices.
• Lu Qianyu passed intelligence to the former Bound Captives in Zi City, confirming that at least eighty percent of important Council officials would attend a meeting at Grand Meeting Hall No. 1 and ordering them to eliminate those present.
• The next morning, the Grand Speaker prepared to begin the Council meeting when a loud commotion outside alerted him that something was wrong.
• Attackers blasted open the meeting hall doors and unleashed powerful attacks, collapsing parts of the building and killing more than a dozen Council members.

The Insect Race and Demon Race launched invasions as Shisui crossed to Chen City and confronted former Bound Captives preparing to flee. The chapter ended with Shisui killing them in the city lord’s office.

• The Grand Speaker tried to defend the Human Race Council, but attackers killed five Speakers and wounded him.
• The Insect Race sent one force toward Chen City and another toward Chou City, while the Demon Race invaded the Huaihuang Continent.
• Shisui flew across the continents and reached the insect tide surrounding Chen City, where the insects had destroyed the river port and blocked escape by water.
• Former Bound Captives gathered in Chen City and decided to abandon it and flee as the insect tide grew.
• Shisui appeared in the city lord’s office and killed the Awakened preparing to leave, then collected their crystals with his Radiant Feathers.

Shisui slaughtered the insect tide and the people fleeing through Chen City, turning the city and its surroundings into a barren desert covered in Flesh Crystals. The Insect Mother realized her offspring had been wiped out and began planning how to recall her remaining insects and buy time.

• Shisui sealed off the insect tide’s escape route with Feather Powder and Spatial Energy as fleeing people reached the city lord’s residence.
• Humans who entered the plaza burst into Flesh Crystals, and the crowd finally stopped advancing after thousands died.
• Shisui crushed a man who begged him to save the people, then vanished into the Alternate Space.
• Shisui turned everything within a hundred-li radius into powder, leaving hundreds of thousands of Flesh Crystals floating above a barren desert.
• The Insect Mother sensed the destruction of her nearly three hundred thousand offspring and considered how to recall her remaining insects.

Shisui harvested hundreds of thousands of Flesh Crystals in Chen City while the Insect Mother planned to flee from him and replenish her forces. She summoned the Beastfolk, intending to take their flesh and blood for her revenge plan, as Barton prepared them to assemble.

• Shisui opened a Space Rift in Chen City and swept hundreds of thousands of Flesh Crystals into it before disappearing, leaving a widened Wunu River and barren desert behind.
• The Beastfolk lived in the Insect Hive under Barton’s leadership, relying on the Insect Race for protection after losing the Beast King.
• Barton received the Insect Mother’s summons, which claimed she planned to relocate because Shisui had targeted the Insect Race, and ordered the Beastfolk to gather by noon the next day.
• The Insect Mother watched Barton organize the gathering and admitted to herself that she meant to collect the Beastfolk’s flesh and blood rather than evacuate them.
• After convincing herself the Beastfolk owed her compensation and should help avenge the Beast King, the Insect Mother resolved to gather more flesh and blood before Shisui reached Zi City.

Shisui attacked Zi City, destroying its central district and the Human Race Council while Lu Qianyu’s rebellion was in the midst of overthrowing the city’s rulers. With the council gone, the Human Race formally descended into chaos, and Shisui turned his attention toward the southern region of Moonfall Continent.

• Shisui harvested the creatures and prey in the surrounding area before heading to Zi City to take revenge on the Human Race.
• Lu Qianyu and the former Bound Captives killed the officials gathered at the council building to prevent the old rulers from returning to power.

• Shisui collected Flesh Crystals from the ruins and turned his gaze toward the southern region of Moonfall Continent.

After Zi City was destroyed, the Insect Mother hurried the Beastfolk’s assembly and slaughtered them for flesh and blood. Old Barton bargained for some of their lives by offering surviving Beastfolk agents in the Demon Race’s army, while a message reached Bai Ye in the Ten-Thousand-Blade Mountain Range.

• News of Zi City’s destruction alarmed Jiqu and the Insect Mother, who feared Shisui would continue hunting the Human Race and then target her.
• The Insect Mother ordered the Beastfolk to assemble that night, and Old Barton passed the order along despite his unease.
• Old Barton gathered the Beastfolk in the square, where the Insect Mother emerged and began crushing them beneath her body.
• Old Barton offered the Insect Mother the Beastfolk agents embedded in the Demon Race’s army in exchange for sparing some of their descendants, and she agreed.
• In the Ten-Thousand-Blade Mountain Range, Bai Ye received a signal from her dormant Insect Hive and heard someone ask whether she had been well.

Bai Ye refused Old Barton’s demand to mislead a Demon Race army toward the southern Moonfall Continent, and Barton and nearby Beastfolk young were killed by the Insect Mother. Demon Race missiles exposed and flooded an underground Insect Hive, drawing Shisui to the Moonfall Continent to investigate.

• Old Barton contacted Bai Ye and ordered her to direct a Demon Race army toward the southern Moonfall Continent.
• Bai Ye rejected Barton’s threat involving the Doves-kind, crushed the Insect Hive, and decided to draw the Demon Race’s attention toward them by other means.
• The Insect Mother attacked Old Barton and killed him and the Beastfolk young near him, absorbing their blood mist.
• The Insect Mother recognized incoming Demon Race missiles as they struck the southern Moonfall Continent.
• Shisui killed the humans he had been pursuing, sensed the missiles exposing and flooding an underground Insect Hive, and traveled through a Space Wormhole to the Moonfall Continent.

The Insect Mother retaliated against the Demon Race with a swarm of lethal carnivorous wasps, while Bai Ye fled with stolen supplies before the army could hold her responsible. As the wasps slaughtered the Demon Race, Jiqu awoke, sensed the attack, and unleashed an avalanche against the swarm.

• The Insect Mother repaired her hive and sent out a swarm of specialized killer wasps to attack the Demon Race.
• The Demon Race decided to seek peace and arrested the officer who had ordered the missile strike.
• Bai Ye fled the Ten-Thousand-Blade Mountain Range with stolen supplies before the Demon Race could question her.
• The carnivorous wasps descended on the Demon Race, causing panic and slaughtering its soldiers.
• Jiqu sensed the attack through the Undying Cells and sent an avalanche crashing down on the swarm.

Shisui appeared during the devastation at the Ten-Thousand-Blade Mountain Range, captured most of the Killer Bees, and confronted Jiqu and the Insect Mother. After the two Heaven-Controlling Realm experts attacked him and failed, Shisui opened a giant Space Wormhole and began hunting the remaining forces.

• An avalanche crushed many Killer Bees and devastated Qiongfang City and the Demon Race army, leaving Jiqu furious and anxious.
• Shisui captured more than half the Killer Bees in an Alternate Space, where Feather Powder restrained them while keeping them alive.
• Jiqu urged Shisui to spare some intelligent creatures, but Shisui dismissed his plea and said he understood that Jiqu was afraid to die.
• The Insect Mother and Jiqu attacked Shisui together to buy time for their forces to retreat, but Shisui vanished and their attacks collided.
• Shisui reappeared with a giant Space Wormhole that engulfed the remaining swarm, while Feather Powder spread across more than half the Ten-Thousand-Blade Mountain Range.

Feather Powder and Rc Cells wiped out Bai Ye, Qiongfang City, and the Demon Race army, leaving only protected laboratories and a mansion holding out in the Ten-Thousand-Blade Mountain Range. Meanwhile, Shisui confronted the Insect Mother’s five elite soldiers on the southern coast and swiftly overwhelmed their battle formation.

• Feather Powder spread across the Ten-Thousand-Blade Mountain Range, and Rc Cells consumed Bai Ye and the other exposed creatures.
• The Psychic Energy Barrier around Qiongfang City shattered, and Feather Powder killed its inhabitants and the retreating Demon Race army.
• The laboratories and the Heaven-Controlling Realm expert’s mansion remained protected for the moment, while Shisui faced the Insect Mother’s five elite soldiers on the southern coast.
• One of the insects attacked Shisui, but he deflected its blades with his Bikaku and broke through the soldiers’ coordinated formation.
• Shisui transformed into his Kakuja state and drove an attacking insect back, shattering the formation again.
