Ling Donglai chose to visit Namek to investigate the Namekians’ potential-unlocking ability and Dragon Balls, while also planning to seek out the all-knowing Lord Zuno. Vimana arrived in orbit around Namek, where Reiju noted the planet’s unusual perpetual daylight and suspected its inhabitants could photosynthesize.

• Ling Donglai awakened Porunga, and the dragon cautiously offered him three wishes despite recognizing him as an enemy of the divine realm.

• Ling Donglai gave the Grand Elder a magnetic sphere containing modified Namekian genes, completing their transaction.
• An alien in a purple coat appeared before Ling Donglai and attacked his throat with a murderous punch.

Ling Donglai defeated Hit, erased his memories, and sealed Namek away after its Great Elder refused to join him. As Ling Donglai returned to Dragon Ball Earth, the High-Dimensional Immortals launched a fleet assault on Izumo, where the war began.

While the Galactic King’s forces battled Izumo, Frieza considered an alliance with the faction and turned his attention to Vegeta. On Earth, Goku learned that Ling Donglai was coming, while Ling Donglai created a Dragon Ball and summoned its Shenron.

• Ling Donglai created a modified Dragon Ball that could revive souls held in his Underworld and summoned its Shenron with a magnetic frequency.

After the Galactic King’s attack stalled Izumo’s expansion, Ling Donglai continued the expedition to Earth, where Reiju hacked into Capsule Corporation’s network. Dr. Brief discovered the intrusion, and Bulma began trying to hack back, hoping to return to adventuring through electronic warfare.

• Reiju reported that the Galactic King’s forces had ambushed the Pioneer Force and destroyed three hundred warships, but Ling Donglai decided Broly and the One-Punch Planet people could handle the threat.
• Ling Donglai’s ship arrived at Earth, where its stealth mode was detected by a Capsule Corporation satellite.

• At Vegapunk Laboratory, Vegapunk described the design of a parallel-universe traversal machine.

Dr. Gero was captured from his mountain laboratory, and Ling Donglai altered his memories before taking Android 17 and 18 aboard Vimana for modification. Lazuli and Lapis joined the Empire, while Ling Donglai completed the permanent energy reactor technology.

• Dr. Gero struggled to repair his supercomputer as he recalled his hatred of Goku and his plans for revenge.

• Ling Donglai completed the permanent energy reactor technology by following Dr. Gero’s thought process.

Ling Donglai created the Unown script spirits and prepared to leave Earth to seek an omniscient man, but Son Goku and Earth’s warriors confronted the Vimana after Bulma warned them of an alien invasion. Dr. Gero recognized Son Goku and remained consumed by hatred for him.

• Ling Donglai created soul-bearing symbols, then asked Robin to develop an exclusive script with the same technique.
• Robin made twenty-eight Script Spirits, named them Unown, and Nami used them to summon lightning by writing its characters.
• Ling Donglai planned to investigate another planet while keeping Earth’s Underworld entrance and its connection to higher dimensions secret for a future attack.

In March of Heavenly Calendar Year 2, the Emperor used Divine Judgment to rewrite Earth’s memories and make its people forget Dr. Gero and Vimana. Ling Donglai tracked down those who resisted the changes, altered them to serve Izumo, and used the Luck-Luck Fruit to conceal Five Element Mountain from the divine realm, leaving North Supreme Kai unable to see Earth.

• Divine Judgment erased ordinary people’s memories of Dr. Gero and Vimana, while God, Taishang Laojun, and Fortuneteller Baba sensed that their memories had been altered.
• Ling Donglai intercepted God and forced Soul Materialization on him, giving him immense power and changing his faction to Izumo’s.
• Ling Donglai found Fortuneteller Baba in the desert, altered her into an Izumo member, and then traveled to Five Element Mountain.
• Ling Donglai modified Taishang Laojun and stationed Wind Swordsman, Veigar, Garen, and Xin Zhao at Five Element Mountain to guard it.

After Ling Donglai left Earth for Planet Zuno, apprentice Supreme Kai Zamasu watched reports of his power and became convinced that humanity should be destroyed. Seeking a way to reach Universe 7 and gain power, Zamasu poisoned Gowasu and turned his attention to the Potara Earrings.

• The gods of Universe 7 waited for Ling Donglai to leave Earth before they tried to repair and seal the passage to the higher-dimensional world, while Earth became isolated by a magnetic field.
• Zamasu watched a Divine YouTube report about Ling Donglai and concluded that humans were unworthy of protection.
• Zamasu reviewed Ling Donglai's records and learned that Earth and Namek had wish-granting dragon balls, then found information about Zuno in Universe 7.
• Zamasu decided that becoming a true Supreme Kai would let him travel to Universe 7, and recognized that his standing gave him the nerve to harm Gowasu.
• Zamasu served Gowasu tea, told him he had resolved his doubts, and poisoned him.
• After Gowasu collapsed, Zamasu looked toward his Potara Earrings.

Zamasu used the Potara Earrings to briefly become Universe 10’s Supreme Kai, learn about the Super Dragon Balls, and inspect the parallel-world rings without Gowasu noticing. He set parallel-universe Zamasus in motion to carry out his plans, and one immortal Zamasu stole Goku’s body before deciding to kill the Supreme Kais.

• Zamasu fused with Gowasu’s Potara Earrings, became the Supreme Kai, and traveled to Planet Zuno to learn about the Dragon Balls.

• Ling Donglai detected a faint World Tree-like magnetic field, redirected the Vimana, and found a dying planet occupied by the Otsutsuki Clan.
• Ling Donglai read an Otsutsuki member's memories and learned that Uranus had created the clan to complete the World Tree, then abandoned it as a failure.
