Chapter Summaries

Shangguan Wen and the Yanhuang Civilization’s Hall Masters responded to a crisis on the Heavenly Demon Realm Wall Battlefield while preparing to conceal their growing strength through Formatting Re-Cultivation. Meanwhile, Ascending Dragon Hall’s fleet had become a vast technological power, and twelve cultivators reached 22.0 as Chu Fei prepared to enter seclusion.

• Shangguan Wen received the front line’s demand for reinforcements and convened the Yanhuang Civilization’s Hall Masters to decide how to respond.
• The Hall Masters chose to send six registered 20.0-stage experts and disguise many stronger cultivators as lower-stage troops through Formatting Re-Cultivation, while a delegation sought better terms and more mobilization time.
• Ascending Dragon Hall reconnected with isolated Yanhuang Civilization branches, while one-tenth of the ships returning from the Ancient Battlefield brought back roughly 70% of the powerful experts.
• The returning experts saw Ascending Dragon Hall’s enormous fleet and watched twelve cultivators undergo simultaneous tribulations aided by computer calculations and the observation of 22.0-stage experts.
• Twelve cultivators successfully reached 22.0 and displayed their Metaverse Domains, after which Chu Fei announced he would undergo Formatting Re-Cultivation and Jin Tierong went to welcome the returning experts.

Jin Tierong demonstrated that returning ships carried dangerous soul-like life forms and invited Helios Saemius and Crimson Feather Heavenly King to judge the Ascending Dragon Hall’s Youth Elite Competition. After a year of preparation, the competition was about to begin as Chu Fei prepared to make his first public appearance after his 20.0 tribulation, with Shangguan Qinghong at his side.

• Jin Tierong used infected chicks to prove to Sky Illusion Demonic Lord that returning spacecraft carried a virus dangerous to infants, and the fleet began inspecting ships and passengers.
• Jin Tierong invited Crimson Feather Heavenly King and Helios Saemius to judge the Youth Elite Competition, and both accepted and promised prizes.
• The Ascending Dragon Hall publicized the competition, presented one hundred young elites, and attracted schools, sects, parents, and betting pools.
• The competition began a year later, with Chu Fei preparing to appear publicly alongside more than ten thousand 22.0 experts.
• On the eve of the competition, Chu Fei and Shangguan Qinghong arranged their clothes together, revealing their close relationship and her standing as the Ascending Dragon Hall’s second-in-command.

The Youth Elite Competition showcased the strength of Ascending Dragon Hall’s Big Data Cultivation, while Chu Fei underwent a long Formatting Re-Cultivation that improved his 22.0-stage cultivation. A century later, Demon Race powerhouses began erupting with Evil Spirit energy, and Chu Fei reached out to warn Helios Saemius and the Crimson Feather Heavenly King.

• Chu Fei and Shangguan Qinghong opened the Youth Elite Competition, where the new generation’s Big Data Cultivation impressed the gathered powerhouses.
• Chu Fei tested his 22.0-stage abilities, then spent ten years recording and formatting his Cosmic Brain before rebuilding his cultivation over another ten years.
• The Youth Elite Competition ended, prompting many established powerhouses to begin practicing Big Data Cultivation alongside their traditional systems.
• A century later, a Demon Race half-step True God went berserk, and Wang Guowen and Zhang Ying reported that his aura matched the Evil Spirit data from the Ancient Battlefield.
• After two more Demon Race half-step True Gods went berserk, Chu Fei expanded his domain and projected his consciousness toward Helios Saemius and the Crimson Feather Heavenly King.

Chu Fei and Ascending Dragon Hall discovered that Evil Spirits had infiltrated the fleet and were pursuing it in overwhelming numbers. After organizing inspections and preparing the fleet for battle, Chu Fei and the other leaders faced a looming war against the returning Ancient Battlefield forces.

• Chu Fei coordinated fleet-wide screenings with Helios Saemius and Crimson Feather Heavenly King, and experts suppressed infected True Gods as Ascending Dragon Hall investigated the Evil Spirits.
• Chu Fei helped True God Akalaki contain his infection and switch to Big Data Cultivation, while research suggested the Evil Spirits had lain dormant before suddenly awakening.
• Screenings uncovered more than thirty infected True Gods, and probes detected a vast force of Evil Spirits 0.3 light-years behind the fleet.
• Specialized probes revealed bone warships modeled on Ascending Dragon Hall designs, missing vessels and experts from the Ancient Battlefield, and entities powerful enough to threaten the fleet.
• At an emergency meeting, Chu Fei and the faction leaders agreed to use Vacuum Energy Bombs to displace the enemy, mobilized the experts, and prepared the fleet to accelerate and flee if necessary.

As the Evil Spirit fleets closed in, Chu Fei’s fleet uncovered traitors, revised its tactics, and prepared for battle. The first Vacuum Energy Bombs trapped two enemy fleets in chaotic zones, and sensors detected energy gathering inside one of them.

• Chu Fei, Helios Saemius, and the Crimson Feather Heavenly King sentenced seven protesting True Gods, 1,172 high-level gods, and 2,684 relatives to death after they challenged their work assignments.
• The Evil Spirit fleets evaded the first Vacuum Energy Bomb trap after traitors leaked the plan, so Chu Fei ordered the bombs destroyed and helped uncover cultivators who had defected to the Evil Spirits.
• As five Evil Spirit fleets closed to attack, Chu Fei left fleet command to Huang Youlong and entered seclusion to master the Ascending Dragon Hall’s latest technologies.
• Huang Youlong’s forces sent drone formations against the attacking fleets, and Vacuum Energy Bombs swallowed two of the five fleets in vast chaotic zones.
• After three minutes without any spacecraft emerging from the zones, Ascending Dragon Hall’s radar detected violent energy gathering inside one of them.

Chu Fei led Ascending Dragon Hall’s fleet into mobile protracted warfare after the Evil Spirits survived the Vacuum Energy Bombs and resumed pursuit. The fleet began using its superior propulsion, layered defenses, and industrial capacity to wear down the enemy while protecting its researchers and preparing for a long war.

• The Evil Spirits used black energy beams to pull seventeen damaged ships and their survivors out of the Vacuum Energy blast zones, while their Great Luo Golden Immortal presence remained intact.
• Chu Fei urged Helios Saemius and the Crimson Feather Heavenly King to abandon their established route and maneuver, and both agreed to mobile warfare.
• Ascending Dragon Hall accelerated away, deployed drones, missiles, debris, Meme Viruses, and electromagnetic projectiles behind it, and forced the pursuing Evil Spirit fleets to spend energy on defenses.
• The fleet split into combat groups and reorganized its ships, shielding the New Life generation while motherships produced supplies and cultivators mined materials.
• Chu Fei considered the think tank’s Mobile Protracted Warfare plan and concluded that the fleet might wear down the powerful Evil Spirits if it fully used its scientific and industrial advantages.

Chu Fei and Ascending Dragon Hall used predicted focused fire to weaken five charging Evil Spirit Great Luo Golden Immortals, then launched an elite force to press the attack. As the fleet’s experts closed in, Chu Fei explained the plan and the need to exploit the element of surprise.

• The Evil Spirit fleet harassed Ascending Dragon Hall and repeatedly attempted to rush its ships while both sides struggled with dwindling energy and stalemated attacks.
• Five Evil Spirit Great Luo Golden Immortals used short, carefully timed movements to bypass Vacuum Energy Bomb interference and approach within one million kilometers of the fleet.
• Chu Fei ordered predictive focused fire, and Ascending Dragon Hall’s weapons repeatedly struck and weakened the five experts.
• Huang Youlong told the Crimson Feather Heavenly King to wait before launching a counterattack, giving the fleet time to continue sniping the Evil Spirit experts.
• The Evil Spirit experts tried to retreat, but Ascending Dragon Hall catapulted ultrahigh-speed craft carrying Chu Fei, Helios Saemius, the Crimson Feather Heavenly King, and thousands of level 22.0 elites toward them.
• Chu Fei explained to the foreign experts that the force needed to capture several Golden Immortal-level Evil Spirits and seize the advantage before the enemy adapted.

Chu Fei and Ascending Dragon Hall launched a coordinated assault on five Evil Spirit Great Luo Golden Immortals, using their linked domains and specialized technology to suppress the enemy while Helios Saemius and the Crimson Feather Heavenly King joined the battle. When the Evil Spirits escaped with a Saint-level Myriad Laws Evasion Technique, Chu Fei ordered the use of experimental methods to trap them.

• Chu Fei led the Ascending Dragon Hall experts into the battlefield as their linked Cosmic Brains formed a million-kilometer domain that weakened the five Evil Spirit Great Luo Golden Immortals.
• Helios Saemius and the Crimson Feather Heavenly King engaged two Evil Spirits, while Chu Fei and the Ascending Dragon Hall elites suppressed the other three with their combined domain and Meme Technology.
• Chu Fei struck the battlefield with lightning and a point-blank Electromagnetic Cannon, helping the Crimson Feather Heavenly King break through an Evil Spirit's defenses.
• The five Evil Spirits transformed into smoke-like forms and escaped the combined domain, evading Chu Fei's attacks.
• Chu Fei identified their escape as a Saint-level technique and ordered his forces to simulate Entropy Gravity and an Information Black Hole, while the Crimson Feather Heavenly King named it the Myriad Laws Evasion Technique.

Chu Fei used an Information Black Hole to capture a Great Luo Golden Immortal-level Evil Spirit while the Ascending Dragon Hall drove back the others. After a ten-year standoff and retreat, Chu Fei and his team continued trying to break the Saint’s skull protecting their captive, and began considering ways to overcome its isolation from the outside world.

• Chu Fei created an Information Black Hole that disrupted the Evil Spirits’ evasion technique, and the Ascending Dragon Hall’s attacks forced them back into the battlefield.
• Chu Fei and the Ascending Dragon Hall elites deliberately let one Evil Spirit approach, and Chu Fei trapped it inside the simulated black hole while the other four escaped.
• Shangguan Qinghong led the remaining team against the retreating Evil Spirits, and she discovered that Meme Viruses had begun taking effect in them.
• Chu Fei recruited more than six hundred Level 22.0 experts to help suppress the captive as the Ascending Dragon Hall and Evil Spirits faced off for nearly ten years.
• Chu Fei and his team found that the captive had hidden inside a Saint’s skull, which was insulated from its surroundings and resisted their attacks.

Over ten thousand years, Ascending Dragon Hall grew into a vast fleet and civilization while researching a Saint's skull and using its trapped Evil Spirit to advance Big Data Cultivation. As Chu Fei's thoughts on information and fortune developed, Shangguan Qinghong announced that the Metaverse Domain and Brainstorm Creation were on the verge of breakthroughs.

• Over ten thousand years passed as the fleet expanded to a million spacecraft and billions of people, while Ascending Dragon Hall's cultivation system reached the late 22.0 level.
• Chu Fei and more than six hundred others maintained a simulated black hole that trapped a Great Luo Golden Immortal-level Evil Spirit inside a seemingly indestructible skull suspected to belong to a Saint.
• Ascending Dragon Hall researchers tested technologies on the skull and reduced the power of attacks when they detected slight vibrations, preserving the remains and the captive Evil Spirit for study.
• Chu Fei's avatar considered whether the creation of effective information could attract fortune, while the researchers continued refining their technologies.
• Shangguan Qinghong announced that the researchers had reconstructed the Metaverse Domain algorithms using Cosmic Information Theory and that Brainstorm Creation and the Metaverse Domain were nearing breakthroughs.

After ten thousand years of research, Chu Fei and Ascending Dragon Hall completed a new Cultivation Technique and killed the Great Luo Golden Immortal-level Evil Spirit. Chu Fei began verifying the 23.0 technique as the fleet found traces of the Ancient Battlefield.

• Outside the Green Lotus World, Ascending Dragon Hall struggled to keep pace with rapid advances in Cultivation Techniques and technology while the God of War Hall sought more time before sending reinforcements.
• Sky Illusion Demonic Lord watched Big Data Cultivators undergo tribulations and reflected on how Big Data Cultivation had surpassed the older cultivation systems.
• Chu Fei and more than six hundred researchers used computer simulations to complete most of their work on the 23.0 Cultivation Technique while Chu Fei spent over ten thousand years suppressing the Evil Spirit.
• After the researchers approved the technique for testing, Chu Fei and the fleet's elites destroyed the Evil Spirit, and the Wisdom Tree Seed devoured what remained.
• Chu Fei began cultivating the 23.0 technique to verify it as the fleet headed toward the Ancient Battlefield, and a thousand years later the crew discovered its traces.

Ascending Dragon Hall reached the Ancient Battlefield and organized a disciplined exploration program after years of preparation. As the expedition began, Chu Fei left the fleet alone to act as its vanguard and attempt to break through toward the 24.0 realm.

• Ascending Dragon Hall’s fleet slowed beside the Ancient Battlefield and announced that explorers had to meet cultivation standards, register, and pass specialized training and examinations.
• After a year of preparation, the Ancient Battlefield exploration officially began under rules emphasizing teamwork, communication, and shared reporting of discoveries.
• Chu Fei quietly departed from the fleet alone, leaving Shangguan Qinghong, Jin Tierong, and the others behind.
• Shangguan Qinghong and Jin Tierong acknowledged that Chu Fei’s solo expedition followed their long-discussed Blade Edge Theory, which made him the fleet’s spiritual vanguard.
• The fleet’s theory held that Chu Fei’s concentrated fortune and speed could help him break through the current cultivation system, but he would have to endure the dangers alone.

Chu Fei entered the Ancient Battlefield alone to search for traces of creation, exploring its overlapping worlds and studying their strange laws. He selected a vast region of intersecting worlds as his first target and wondered whether its inhabitants would regard him as an invading demon.

• Chu Fei disguised himself as an ordinary cultivator and traveled through the heavily guarded entrance into the Ancient Battlefield.
• He received exploration supplies at the forward base, then teleported away alone and used a Nanofluid Metal fighter jet to travel deeper into the battlefield.
• Chu Fei passed an Evil Spirit stronghold and a bone world formed around a gigantic dragon head, consuming a powerful Evil Spirit that entered his cockpit.
• After more than six months of surveying the Myriad Worlds, Chu Fei found a vast region where overlapping continents and other worlds passed through one another without harm.
• Chu Fei chose the complex region as his first target, scanned its crystal-wall barrier, and wondered whether its inhabitants would consider him an Outer Heavenly Demon.

God Lord Sauron and the other God Lords learned that evil demons had returned and gathered to plan their response. Chu Fei broke through the Crystal Wall, overwhelmed them, and ordered Ancient Spirit God Lord to lead him to the Eternal Night Wasteland.

• God Lord Sauron discovered that other God Lords were experiencing the same terrifying warnings, and Ancient Spirit God Lord summoned them to share what had happened a thousand years earlier.
• Ancient Spirit God Lord explained that Rank Nine gods had left to fight evil demons beyond the Myriad God Realm and never returned, then proposed exploring the Eternal Night Wasteland.
• The God Lords agreed to hunt the evil demons, explore the wasteland, and consider negotiations, but the Crystal Wall began to collapse under an attack from beyond.
• Chu Fei burst through the Crystal Wall in a silver-white aircraft and suppressed the assembled God Lords with his Cosmic Brain domain.
• Ancient Spirit God Lord identified the Eternal Night Wasteland as a place with secret treasures, and Chu Fei ordered him to lead the way.

Chu Fei entered the Eternal Night Wasteland to investigate its strange origins and the fate of the God Lords who vanished there. After a hostile, chaotic force tried to lure and guide him, he pushed inward with his Metaverse Domain and sent a drone to follow its guidance.

• Ancient Spirit God Lord told Chu Fei that God Lords explored the Eternal Night Wasteland to advance, and that their deaths gave rise to new planes.
• Chu Fei examined the Myriad God Realm's inaccessible planes, learned why the wasteland was feared, and received Ancient Spirit God Lord's recorded information.
• Chu Fei left Ancient Spirit God Lord a Jade Slip and traveled to the wasteland, where powerful creatures hid from his aura.
• Inside the wasteland, Chu Fei encountered chaos that disrupted laws and abilities, while a strange consciousness promised him secrets of Eternal Life.
• Chu Fei contained the consciousness's tracking seal in an Isolation Sandbox, expanded his Metaverse Domain to withstand the chaos, and sent a drone after the seal's guidance.

Chu Fei explored the Eternal Night Wasteland and discovered that its Soul Treasures were produced by vortexes grinding souls into resentment and wisdom. After letting an avatar be consumed, he secretly hacked into a Soul Treasure and uncovered the millstone’s true function, leaving him poised to study or exploit its soul-transforming law.

• Chu Fei sent a nanofluid-metal drone through the chaotic wasteland and saw rainbow vortexes grinding souls around radiant Soul Treasures.
• He followed a message urging him to devour Soul Treasures, then realized their hidden traps made repeated consumption corrupt the eater.
• After consuming over a thousand Soul Treasures at one farm, Chu Fei’s avatar became dazed and greedy, then flew to a more sinister farm where curses stained the vortexes.
• The avatar lost control after consuming more Soul Treasures and was swallowed by a tentacle of twisted souls, which extracted its consciousness while discarding its nanofluid-metal body.
• Chu Fei used a backdoor in the avatar’s soul to observe the process and reasoned that the wasteland was cultivating Divine Lords while harvesting souls for resentment and fear.
• Over two days, Chu Fei covertly infiltrated a Soul Treasure and learned that the treasure was only the fruit, while the vortex millstone was a law that devoured and squeezed souls below the Golden Immortal level.

Chu Fei discovered that the Eternal Night Wasteland was part of a vast being that created miniature worlds from Soul Treasures, and he met the Chaos Behemoth trapped within it. The Behemoth asked Chu Fei to kill it, but after revealing that powerful factions might already know of Chu Fei’s arrival, it left him facing a perilous choice tied to the fate of the Yanhuang Civilization.

• Chu Fei studied Soul Treasures and concluded that the Eternal Night Wasteland might be a living farm that cultivated God Lords before harvesting them.
• Chu Fei used an updated Clear Source Spirit Eye algorithm to reveal a colossal brain-like being whose tentacles gathered Soul Treasures and formed miniature planes.
• Chu Fei witnessed the being create a plane and inferred that the process offered a path to world creation.
• The being spoke to Chu Fei, explained that it was trapped inside its body, and asked him to kill it.
• The Chaos Behemoth revealed that it had been cursed by powerful enemies and claimed that freeing it could expose the Yanhuang Civilization to destruction.
• Chu Fei recognized that the Behemoth’s encounter might be a trap involving his entire civilization, while the Behemoth laughed at his predicament.

Chu Fei studied Morwos and the Eternal Night Wasteland for ten years, uncovering a logical basis for advancing Ascending Dragon Hall's cultivation system to Level 24.0. When he tried to remove one of Morwos's curses, the Azure Nether Saint Lord appeared and revealed that the Chaos Behemoth was his Half-step Saint pill, leaving Chu Fei fearing he would not be allowed to leave.

• Chu Fei cautiously agreed to work with Morwos, relying on the meme backdoors he had planted inside the Chaos Behemoth.
• Over ten years, Chu Fei observed the Wasteland's life cycle and studied Morwos's creation of Soul Treasures, spatial bubbles, and planes.
• Chu Fei concluded that advancing beyond Level 22.0 required understanding logic, and he found a path to Level 24.0.
• Chu Fei prepared to leave but sensed that Morwos's power was restraining him, so he attempted to investigate and remove the Five Aggregates Spirit Severing Seal.
• The Azure Nether Saint Lord appeared and told Chu Fei that Morwos was a Half-step Saint pill he had refined over hundreds of millions of years.
• Chu Fei realized he had witnessed the Saint Lord's pill-refining process and feared the Saint Lord would kill him.

Chu Fei fought the Azure Nether Saint Lord, using Vacuum Energy Bombs and Big Data Cultivation to survive the Quasi-Saint’s attacks and expose his severe injuries. After Chu Fei wounded him with a Heavenly Punishment Laser, the Azure Nether Saint Lord fled behind a golden banner, leaving Chu Fei unable to sense or pursue him.

• Chu Fei refused the Azure Nether Saint Lord’s invitation, dodged a hidden attack, and used his Metaverse Domain and Big Data Technology to find flaws in the seal on the Chaos Behemoth.
• The Azure Nether Saint Lord trapped Chu Fei amid chaotic lightning, so Chu Fei detonated Vacuum Energy Bombs to try to tear open space-time and escape.
• The Azure Nether Saint Lord’s golden light and sword beams destroyed Chu Fei’s apparent body, but he could not find Chu Fei’s concealed true body after searching the Myriad God Realm.
• Chu Fei struck the Azure Nether Saint Lord’s shoulder with a Heavenly Punishment Laser and taunted him while launching attacks that damaged his Golden Body.
• The Azure Nether Saint Lord endured another injury, raised a bright yellow banner to block Chu Fei’s attacks and perception, and fled the battlefield.

Chu Fei discovered that Azure Nether Saint Lord had trapped him inside the Eternal Night Wasteland, so he sought refuge within the Chaos Behemoth's seals. At the Behemoth's core, Chu Fei proposed taking its place as the one being refined.

• Chu Fei cracked the Boundless Kunyuan Banner and began removing the Chaos Behemoth's seals to draw Azure Nether Saint Lord out.
• After breaking two seals, Chu Fei detected Azure Nether Saint Lord planting more Formation Flags and realized the Quasi-Saint had trapped the wasteland in a golden, inescapable net.
• Chu Fei used his remaining avatars' computing power and fled into the Chaos Behemoth, descending through its layered planes as Azure Nether Saint Lord's attacks blocked his escape.
• Chu Fei reached the Chaos Behemoth's sacred core and offered to take its place as the one being refined.
