With one year left before the Giant Asteroid strikes the Cultivation Star, Su Hao and Ashan began the Soar impact plan, hoping to deflect it enough to save the world. Su Hao brought Feng Cheng along, and the chapter ended as he prepared to teleport the Soar toward its target.

• After their mountain-teleport test succeeded, Su Hao told Ashan to focus on training his Mental Tentacles and conserve their strength for the Soar.
• Fourteen years of bombing had only slightly deflected the Giant Asteroid, leaving the Cultivation Star facing destruction unless the Soar plan succeeded.
• Feng Cheng asked Su Hao and Ashan to take him with them, and Su Hao agreed after Feng Cheng said he wanted to stay by his Senior Brother's side.
• Su Hao recorded Feng Cheng's Consciousness Information in Marble Space, then assigned him to coordinate the Control Room with the Cultivation Star's ground command center.
• Su Hao and Ashan prepared the Soar's Locate Teleport, knowing they might exhaust their Spiritual Power and be unable to return.
• Su Hao began channeling the Soar's stored spiritual energy and asked Feng Cheng to report the landing coordinates for the Leap eight hours later.

Su Hao and Ashan opened a spatial channel and teleported Soar into the Giant Asteroid’s path, successfully completing the leap but collapsing from the strain. With impact minutes away, Feng Cheng evacuated them to Starry Sky Harbor and then teleported himself there after activating Soar’s thrusters and delayed bombs.

• Su Hao and Ashan endured immense spiritual pressure to open a spatial channel large enough for Soar.
• Su Hao and Ashan teleported Soar into outer space, where it headed toward the Giant Asteroid at over three hundred thousand kilometers per hour.
• Feng Xianglong received confirmation that the leap had succeeded and ordered the crew evacuated before impact.
• Su Hao collapsed from the strain and Ashan fainted, so Feng Cheng carried them to Soar’s Teleportation Array.
• Feng Cheng teleported Su Hao and Ashan to Starry Sky Harbor, then activated Soar’s delayed bombs and thrusters before teleporting himself there.

After the Giant Asteroid barely changed course despite the Soar’s impact, Feng Xianglong ordered a purge of the Demon Extermination Society to turn its cultivators into bombs. Meanwhile, Lin Mei killed Li Chi at Starry Sky Harbor, while Feng Cheng had already fled with Su Hao and Ashan.

• Feng Cheng decided to leave Starry Sky Harbor and carried Su Hao and Ashan to a secret Storage Space.
• The Soar struck the Giant Asteroid, blasting debris into space and damaging surveillance devices.
• Testers reported that the Asteroid’s trajectory had shifted only slightly and it would still graze one-fifth of the planet.
• Feng Xianglong ordered teams to kill every member of the Demon Extermination Society and use them to make bombs.
• Li Chi arrived at Starry Sky Harbor searching for Jia Wei, but Lin Mei confronted and killed him with Star Group technology.

Su Hao recovered while Ashan remained badly weakened, and Feng Cheng reported that efforts to deflect the Asteroid would not prevent its impact in ten months and twenty-one days. As Star Group captured members of the Demon Extermination Society to use their energy against the Asteroid, Su Hao waited for the people of the world to determine whether the catastrophe could be overcome.

• Su Hao regained the ability to protect himself, learned Ashan would need more than half a year to recover, and asked Feng Cheng to contact headquarters about the Asteroid's Deflection.
• Feng Cheng reported that the Asteroid would still crash into the Cultivation Star in ten months and twenty-one days despite the Deflection Bombs.
• Star Group began capturing Demon Extermination Society cultivators across Spirit Mountain Vein Province to extract their energy for the deflection effort.
• Demon Extermination Society cultivators called an elder for help, but he rebuked them and turned off his phone as the Star Capture Team closed in.
• Feng Xianglong watched the operation and felt powerless, while Su Hao rested and concluded that the world's people would decide whether the calamity could be overcome.

With the Apocalypse approaching, Su Hao gathered Star Group’s Nascent Soul Cultivators and above at Azure Jade Nether Prefecture to charge 170,000 Ten Thousand Blast shells with their spiritual power. The bombs still could not fully deflect the asteroid, leaving the world’s survival dependent on an uncertain final effort.

• Star Group kept the Apocalypse’s timing secret while moving ordinary people into Shelters and requiring its Nascent Soul Cultivators and above to remain on the front lines.
• Su Hao summoned Star Group’s cultivators to Moling City and led them to Azure Jade Nether Prefecture.
• Su Hao assigned the cultivators to fill bomb shells with spiritual power, and they worked until more than 100,000 Ten Thousand Blasts shone across the Plaza.
• Su Hao filled fifty bombs himself, exhausting nearly all his spiritual power, while the other cultivators filled the remaining shells.
• Su Hao asked Little Light to calculate whether 170,000 bombs could deflect the asteroid, and Little Light reported that they could not completely prevent the impact.
• Su Hao concluded that the bombs were still slightly insufficient, despite having exhausted every other means he could find.

With the asteroid still on course to destroy all life on the Cultivation Star, Su Hao told the gathered cultivators that everyone would die, but their choices could still offer a faint chance to save the planet. As dawn broke, Su Hao took a step toward the final effort to save it.

• Low-level cultivators transported and buried bombs on the asteroid, while tens of thousands of powerful cultivators stayed in Azure Jade Nether Prefecture to await Su Hao’s orders.
• Fairy Feng Ling asked Su Hao whether any way remained to survive, and he told her and the others that they could not save themselves.
• Su Hao declared that the gathered cultivators could unite to give the world a faint chance, then said he would reveal the answer at noon and that everyone present was doomed to die.
• Su Hao accepted the deaths he had caused and resolved to follow his heart by trying to save the planet without blaming himself if he failed.
• At dawn, Su Hao stepped forward, and the gathered cultivators recognized that the effort had begun.

Su Hao led the Star Group cultivators into space to confront the Giant Asteroid, planning to use their remaining spiritual power in self-destruction blasts to deflect it. He struck first and self-destructed, prompting Ashan and Feng Cheng to follow as the others faced the choice of joining them.

• Su Hao warned the cultivators that they were certain to die and led them beyond the Cultivation Star’s atmosphere toward the Giant Asteroid.
• Su Hao’s plan relied on roughly seventy thousand cultivators self-destructing to give the Asteroid a final deflection, though success remained uncertain.
• As the Asteroid blocked the sun and loomed before them, Su Hao transformed into a Life Child and charged at it, declaring his resolve to gain the power to shatter such threats.
• Su Hao struck the Asteroid and activated his self-destruction program, blasting its rocky surface and showing the cultivators what they needed to do.
• Ashan and Feng Cheng followed Su Hao by charging the Asteroid and self-destructing, leaving the other cultivators to choose whether to follow.

After awakening in a new body in a bizarre, warped world, Su Hao killed five strange beasts with a fork. An armored girl then fought off more beasts while wondering why he refused to help.

• Su Hao awakened in the body of a twelve-year-old boy and found that the world around him appeared distorted and unsteady.
• Five Four-Legged Beasts found Su Hao exposed in his hiding place and charged him.
• Su Hao used a rag and a Double-Pronged Fork to kill the beasts, which dissolved into brown Mist.
• An armored young girl arrived, speaking a language Su Hao could not understand, and attacked a new group of beasts with her gauntlet and spear.
• The girl fought off the beasts while Su Hao hid behind the rag, leaving her puzzled by his refusal to help.

Su Hao watched an armored girl fight Beasts, then fled with the townspeople when a gigantic Fantasy Source Beast approached. After the battle, he saw the girl unconscious and gravely wounded, and resolved to study the language of this world.

• Su Hao hid while the armored girl killed the Beasts surrounding her, refusing to help despite her expectant glances.
• A gigantic Source Beast roared in the distance, and Su Hao fled with the crowd as the girl ran toward the threat.
• Su Hao hid in a forest with more than a thousand people until a horn sounded, then followed them to the battlefield.
• The crowd found the gigantic Source Beast dead and about twenty armed people dead; Su Hao spotted the wounded armored girl being healed with a glowing bead.
• Two Armored Warriors approached Su Hao and spoke, but he could not understand them, so he decided to find a quiet place to study the information in Marble Space.

Su Hao examined Ziyang’s memories, confirmed his sister Ziyan had died, and reviewed the dormant Consciousness Information of Ashan and Feng Cheng. He planned how to rebuild his power in this world, set destroying a planet as his ultimate goal, and reached Ziyang’s home, where a black-and-yellow figure suddenly pounced on him.

• Su Hao used Little Light to decode Ziyang’s memories and learned that Ziyan had died in battle.
• Su Hao confirmed that Ashan’s and Feng Cheng’s Consciousness Information had survived the Rebirth but remained dormant.
• Su Hao reviewed the cultivators’ records and saw that many had charged toward the massive Asteroid more than thirty million years earlier.
• Su Hao planned to rebuild his abilities from Blood Qi and set his main goal as destroying a planet.
• Su Hao reached No. 25, White Sand Lane, unlocked the door, and was startled when a black-and-yellow figure pounced at him.

Su Hao completed his evolution into a Bone Demon and learned more about the disasters threatening this world. As a new Source Beast attack struck the town, he cut free a resident trapped by a tentacle and warned everyone to stay still while they waited for the Source Mages.

• Su Hao entered the house with the help of the unusually clever dog, then resolved to focus on refining Blood Qi.
• A year later, Su Hao evolved into a Bone Demon, regained his familiar strength, and planned to grow stronger by drawing core Runes.
• Su Hao stocked up on food and recalled that the world’s Source Beast attacks had become unusually frequent.
• A horn announced a Quality Source Beast, but the ground began shaking as Su Hao and the townspeople sensed a new threat.
• A tentacle burst from the ground and seized an uncle, and Su Hao severed it with a Bone Blade before warning everyone that the creature could sense people moving on the ground.
• Su Hao tested the creature’s response by throwing a bucket, which a tentacle dragged underground, while the frightened townspeople waited for the Source Mages.

Su Hao drove the Octopus Worm out of town and met Huai Shui Town Source Mage Association president Guyin and her teammates the next day. As Guyin explained the Source Mage systems, Su Hao learned that the Fantasy System included strange abilities such as one called “Let’s Be Friends.”

• Su Hao severed the Octopus Worm’s tentacles and struck the ground with Earth Spike, driving the creature away from town.
• Guyin and her Source Mage squad arrived, chased the wounded Octopus Worm, and told Su Hao to hide.
• The next day, Guyin, Sihe, and Huajun visited Su Hao, and he asked them to explain Source Mages.
• Guyin described the Energy, Matter, and Fantasy systems, including their types and abilities.
• Guyin said the giant beast from a year earlier had been a Fantasy System Heart Source Beast, then gave the example of a Trick Source Mage whose ability was called “Let’s Be Friends.”

Guyin explained the strange power of a Trick Source Mage and tested Su Hao’s strength, then brought him to the Huai Shui Town Source Mage Association to help him awaken. As Su Hao touched the Crystal Ball, his Spiritual Power encountered a vast, violent world of Source.

• Guyin described how the ability “Let’s Be Friends” made anyone who befriended its user take blows for him.
• Su Hao split Guyin’s metal bowl with a kitchen knife and drove the blade deep into a rod of metal she had created, astonishing Guyin and the other women.
• Su Hao asked Guyin to teach him how to awaken, and she agreed to help him as a reward for injuring the Octopus Worm.
• Guyin explained natural and stimulated Source awakening as she led Su Hao to the association’s fifth-floor hall.
• Su Hao placed his hands on the Crystal Ball and sent his Spiritual Power inside, where he sensed a vast, violent world.

Su Hao awakened as an Energy System explosion Source Mage after sensing the Source in the Crystal Ball, though he had hoped to learn about Fantasy System abilities. Guyin gave him a Source Pearl and took him to register, where Gulan began his paperwork.

• Su Hao sensed the volatile Source in the Crystal Ball, startled it into glowing, and withdrew before it could explode.
• Guyin confirmed that Su Hao had awakened as an explosion Source Mage and explained how different perceptions led to different Source Abilities.
• Su Hao asked about Fantasy System Source Mages, and Guyin said his rational nature made that awakening impossible.
• Guyin explained that Source Mages obtained Source from Source Beasts, disasters, Anomalies, or purchases, then gave Su Hao a Source Pearl and warned him not to use it alone.
• Guyin took Su Hao to the auditorium to register, where Gulan recognized him and handed him a form.

After registering as a Source Mage, Su Hao postponed joining a squad and focused on recovering his abilities and strength. Once he had regained enough power, he traveled to Lakechang and found two young men assaulting a girl, deciding to take action against them.

• Gulan gave Su Hao a booklet on the Source Mage Code and mental training, and Su Hao asked to wait half a year before joining a squad; Guyin agreed.
• Su Hao studied the booklet, replenished his Blood Qi, restored his Core Rune, and regained Perception and Flash Step.
• Su Hao evolved into a Level 7 Life Child and became a Foundation Establishment cultivator, then set out to find bodies for Ashan and Feng Cheng.
• Su Hao traveled to Lakechang and observed its Source-powered industrial society before scouting the city for three days.
• Su Hao spotted a wealthy young master and his bookboy drugging and dragging a young girl into a house, and decided their meeting was fate.

Su Hao established a hidden base outside Huai Shui Town and transferred Ashan and Feng Cheng into two captured youths’ bodies. He left them there to recover and learn the local language, then returned with supplies after they asked him for a lighter.

• Su Hao knocked out two youths who were threatening a girl, carried them away from the city, and created a Temporary Base near Huai Shui Town.
• Su Hao erased the youths’ recorded Consciousness Information and transferred Ashan and Feng Cheng into their bodies.
• Ashan woke first and messaged Su Hao through Universal Assistant, then tried to frighten Feng Cheng when he awoke; Feng Cheng attempted to flee before Su Hao stopped them.
• Su Hao explained that they were on another Life Planet and told them to recover, refine Blood Qi, and learn the local language while staying at the base for at least two months.
• After returning to town, Su Hao received Feng Cheng’s request for a lighter and appeared at the base with a lighter, knives, and cookware.

Su Hao joined the Star Gazing Squad, whose two eccentric members welcomed him as their new teammate. After a tavern gathering, he asked when they would teach him to use Source, and they took him outside town to test their abilities.

• Su Hao asked Gulan to find him a two-person squad, and she recommended the Star Gazing Squad, captained by A Xing with A Wang as its other member.
• A Xing came to the Source Mage Hall with A Wang, and the pair privately judged Su Hao’s looks while Gulan tried to hush them.
• Gulan introduced Su Hao to A Xing and A Wang, and he officially joined the squad under the nickname A Yang.
• A Xing and A Wang took Su Hao to Huai En Tavern, where they talked about girls instead of teaching him to use Source.
• Su Hao asked when his teammates would train him, and A Xing proposed testing their Source abilities outside town.

A Xing taught Su Hao how to cast spells with Source, and Su Hao succeeded on his first attempt, blasting a boulder into a huge crater. A Xing and A Wang told him to keep practicing before they taught him combat.

• Su Hao followed A Xing and A Wang to a desolate valley and asked A Xing to teach him spellcasting.
• A Xing demonstrated how to guide, convert, and release Source, then lent Su Hao a Low-grade Source Pearl and explained the process.
• Su Hao quickly drew out Source and shaped it into a Half-Explosion state, astonishing A Xing and A Wang with his control.
• Su Hao fired the Source at a boulder, destroying it with an explosion far stronger than A Xing and A Wang expected.
• A Xing and A Wang urged Su Hao to practice casting spells before they taught him how to fight.

Su Hao practiced casting Source spells and then fought A Xing and A Wang to learn combat, dodging their attacks with surprising agility. A Xing struggled to hit him, and A Wang stepped in after A Xing challenged him to take over.

• Su Hao used Source Pearls to practice Little Cannon until he could cast spells smoothly, while A Xing and A Wang watched and discussed his rapid progress.
• A Xing and A Wang proposed a combat exercise in which Su Hao would try to knock them down while they fought back.
• Su Hao dodged A Xing's High-Pressure Balls and escaped his Gel Binding Technique with a Little Cannon blast that broke the bind and pushed him clear.
• A Xing blanketed the area with Air Bullets and dust, but Su Hao still avoided his attacks and fired a Little Cannon toward A Xing's position.
• After Su Hao blasted apart a tree while A Xing dodged, A Wang offered to take over the fight.

Su Hao defeated A Wang in a spar using Radar Perception and Little Cannon, then went home and failed to record the Low-grade Source Pearl’s Source. The next day, after A Xing explained Source Body, Su Hao quickly succeeded in fusing Source with his body, leaving A Xing and A Wang stunned.

• A Wang attacked Su Hao with assorted strange beads, but Su Hao used explosions and a precisely timed kick to defeat him.
• A Xing ended the training and told Su Hao to return the next morning to learn Source Body, while he and A Wang planned to challenge Su Hao in close combat afterward.
• At home, Su Hao tried to record Source from a Low-grade Source Pearl in Marble Space, but the pearl’s energy shattered his Blood Qi.
• A Xing taught Su Hao how to guide Source into a changed state so it could naturally fuse with the body.
• Su Hao succeeded almost immediately, prompting A Xing and A Wang to lament that there was no justice in heaven.

Su Hao absorbed the Source Pearl and proved far more skilled in close combat than A Xing and A Wang expected. The Yang Star Gazing Squad took him on his first mission, and the chapter ended as he asked how they would find the Core behind the Heng Lian Mountain lava disaster.

• Su Hao tested his enhanced body and defeated A Xing, then beat both A Xing and A Wang in close combat.
• A Xing and A Wang decided to bring Su Hao on difficult missions, and three days later they chose the Lava of Heng Lian Mountain mission.
• A Xing and A Wang explained that the Natural Disaster had gone unattended because such missions offered little reward and Source Squads could not handle every incident.
• The three traveled for a day to Heng Lian Mountain and saw the vast area engulfed in flames, smoke, and ash.
• A Xing explained that they needed to locate and destroy the disaster's Core, and Su Hao asked what that meant.

Su Hao, A Xing, and A Wang examined a vast Lava disaster while A Xing explained how disaster Cores, Guides, and Source worked. A Wang began searching the molten mountain for its Core, but had not found it yet.

• Su Hao asked A Xing and A Wang about the Lava disaster, and A Xing explained that disasters could spread and that each one had a Core made of Source and a Guide.
• A Xing demonstrated how Source became part of a Core when a Source Mage used it, and Su Hao concluded that Natural Disasters released Source uncontrollably.
• A Xing said that destroying a Core's Guide would leave its Source, but warned that mistaking the Source for the Guide would destroy the whole Core.
• A Xing asked A Wang to scan the molten mountain, and A Wang poured out Detection Balls that A Xing sent into the Lava.
• A Wang admitted he had been distracted and began searching for the Core.

Su Hao used Little Light to calculate the Lava disaster’s point of origin, allowing A Xing and A Wang to uncover its Core: a black ceramic jar. After A Xing explained how to end the disaster, Su Hao proposed which part of the jar might be the Guide, leaving the two Source Mages surprised by his perception.

• A Xing and A Wang searched the Lava for the Core but found nothing, then proposed resting and continuing their investigation the next day.
• Su Hao explained that he could estimate the Lava’s point of origin and ordered Little Light to calculate three likely locations.
• A Xing and A Wang investigated the first location and uncovered a black ceramic jar whose fluctuations confirmed it was the Core.
• A Xing explained that they needed to distinguish the Source from the Guide and destroy the Guide before taking the Source.
• Su Hao suggested that the jar’s mouth was the Guide and the jar itself was the Source, while A Xing and A Wang wondered why they could not sense the fluctuations he detected.

Su Hao joined A Xing and A Wang on a mission to identify and destroy a Guide, helping them locate a jar that contained a Mud Doll and recover Source Pearls. Afterward, A Xing planned a Source Beast Disaster mission in five days and proposed taking the team to an Anomaly Disaster next.

• Su Hao asked A Xing and A Wang how they distinguished a Source from a Guide, and they explained that they relied on intuition.
• A Xing identified the jar as the Guide and used Qi to cut it open without smashing it.
• The Mud Doll inside the jar collapsed into twenty-three Source Pearls, completing the mission and calming the Lava.
• A Xing and A Wang divided the Source Pearls with Su Hao, giving him seven while keeping two as payment for bringing him along.
• A Xing scheduled a Source Beast Disaster mission for five days later and proposed that the team tackle an Anomaly Disaster after that.
• A Xing vowed to bring Su Hao and A Wang through the Anomaly Disaster alive, and Su Hao teased him about his old dream of finding a cute young girl teammate.

After returning from their first mission, Su Hao planned how to investigate the mysteries of Source, deciding he first needed to cultivate Divine Intent and gather knowledge about the world. He assigned Ashan and Feng Cheng to restore production of spirit power Pills and set out a long-term research plan, then remembered to arrange food for Big Dog.

• Su Hao examined seven Source Pearls and concluded that Marble Space could not record Source, making it difficult to research.
• Su Hao decided to cultivate Divine Intent as a tool for studying Source and ordered Ashan and Feng Cheng to resume mass-producing spirit power Pills.
• Ashan explained that they needed to cultivate Transgenic Spirit Herbs before producing the Pills, and Su Hao told them to select suitable carriers.
• Su Hao planned to investigate disasters, gain access to the world's deeper Source knowledge, join its core organizations, and eventually explore other planets.
• Su Hao noticed Big Dog was hungry, asked Feng Cheng to make extra dog food, and sent Big Dog to fetch his clothes in exchange for a meal.
