• Wang Ye and Lante continued cultivating as their spaceship neared the wormhole, but Cloud Mist Star Transport reported that Cosmic Pirates had stolen its shipment.
• Wang Ye, Mengluo Tieshan, and the female assistant learned that Mengluo Qiaonas would arrive before the replacement crystals, so Wang Ye proposed seizing the Colony Inspector’s high-spec Nuclear-Powered Spaceship and escaping through the Oort Cloud.
• Wang Ye’s esper broke through to the eighth rank, and he later reached the eighth rank as a Perfect Gene warrior after the Energy Crystals were nearly exhausted.
• Mengluo Tieshan arranged for the Colony Inspector to arrive at their satellite in one Cosmic Day, and he and Wang Ye agreed to pursue service in the Human Race War Barracks after escaping.

• Mengluo Tieshan’s body turned to steel as he revealed his real name, Xunahu Tieshan, and asked Wang Ye and Lante to tell his family he had never betrayed them.

• Wang Ye reached ninth-rank Perfect Gene Warrior and ninth-rank New Star Esper, with his brain domain still short of the Cosmic Rank threshold.
• Lante broke through while practicing his spear, then told Wang Ye and Xin Ran that he had awakened a talent rather than a bloodline.

• Wang Ye’s body and Soul Sea transformed, and he gained Sudden Enlightenment about Space Control.

After reaching Cosmic Rank, Wang Ye strengthened his Space Control, equipped himself with Dark Energy Equipment, and learned the Condensation Technique while preparing for the Mengluo Star Guard’s pursuit. When the spacecraft’s backup energy ran out and the enemy closed in, Wang Ye and Lante readied themselves for battle.

• Wang Ye advanced his Space Control and considered whether he could acquire a bloodline later.
• Wang Ye chose two battle blades and other equipment, then assessed his strength as comparable to Lujie’s while recognizing the first-tier Dark Energy Rank captain remained a threat.
• With Xin Ran’s guidance, Wang Ye mastered the Condensation Technique after three Cosmic Days.
• Xin Ran reported that the spacecraft could evade the Mengluo Star Guard only until its backup energy ran out, so Wang Ye began learning the One Strike Technique.
• Seven Cosmic Days later, the backup energy was depleted and the Mengluo Star Guard drew closer, so Wang Ye and Lante prepared for battle.
