Qin Mu planned to expand the Swarm by sending Larva Nest Tyrants and brood fleets to support human bases, using battlefield deaths, inherited memories, and human resources to strengthen them. The human reinforcements left with fleets for their bases, while Qin Mu prepared to grow the Swarm gradually across the Outer Territory Battlefield.

The Swarm’s three Leviathans arrived at White Sand Continent, where a human fortress was close to falling under a vast Zerg and Demon Race assault.

• Qin Mu urged Luo Feng, Hong, Thunder God, and Jia Yi to test their wills in the Illusion Sea, and Luo Feng entered first.

• Nine Swords Venerable and other Virtual Universe Company experts gathered as Luo Feng and Jia Yi reached the fourteenth island, Thunder God the fifteenth, and Hong the sixteenth.
• The gathered King Level Experts and Universe Venerables marveled at the four prodigies' wills and wondered how their generation could produce such talent.

Chaos City Lord realized that Earth’s modifications explained the exceptional willpower of Earth-born geniuses, while Giant Axe Founder uncovered Earth’s secret and found no danger to Qin Mu.

• The Universe Lords agreed Earth belonged to Qin Mu and the Virtual Universe Company, and Chaos City Lord said he would inform Qin Mu and leave the decision to him.

Qin Mu’s role in developing powerful bloodlines and Earth’s unique soul evolution made the Human Race’s leaders decide it was too risky to challenge his control of Earth. After arranging potential Universe Lord and Giant Axe Founder mentors for his friends, Qin Mu planned to auction access to Earth and use the proceeds to strengthen Huaxia.

• Lord Qing Dong warned two Universe Lords that Qin Mu’s influence and backing from Giant Axe Founder and Chaos City Lord made it unwise to pressure him over Earth.
