• Gaili described Heaven Monarch Stan’s ability to fly, travel underground, sense people’s locations, and grant touched objects similar traits.
• Su Hao asked whether there was a way to lure Heaven Monarch Stan out of his castle.

Su Hao planned to assassinate Heaven Monarch Stan with a long-range shot and chose a watchtower in South City as his sniper point. After the Four Kings Gang discussed Su Hao’s strength, he left the city with Ashan to recalibrate the Heavy Gun before the attack.

• Su Hao rejected bombing Stan’s castle and decided to snipe him from beyond his sensing range the next evening.
• After Su Hao and Ashan left, Gaili explained to Xiao Tong, Kas, and Ash that he had agreed to cooperate because he believed Su Hao was a Level 7 Inhuman who shared their goals.
• Su Hao and Ashan surveyed South City from a watchtower, and Su Hao selected a position more than sixteen hundred meters from Stan’s castle.
• Su Hao left the city with Ashan to recalibrate the Heavy Gun and ensure he could kill Stan with one shot.

Su Hao used the Heavy Gun to kill Heaven Monarch Stan with a long-range shot, triggering chaos in the Heaven Sand Gang. The Four Kings Gang learned Stan was dead and began their planned assault on South City and the fleeing gang leaders.

• Su Hao explained that the fate of the Four Kings Gang and Paradise Gang would determine whether the conflict was truly over.
• Su Hao and Ashan found Rose the Shadow Demon waiting outside Abyss City, and Ashan told her that Heaven Monarch Stan and the Heaven Sand Gang were gone.
• Ashan reflected on how following Su Hao had changed the way he understood the world.
• Su Hao, Ashan, and Rose returned to Temple Forest City, where Taini ran out and tearfully embraced Ashan.
• Su Hao went to the Laboratory and discovered he could produce controlled sounds by vibrating Conversion Steel, making sound transmission within his Domain feasible.

Ashan received Su Hao’s plans for the Temple Forest Society through a sound transmitter, while Su Hao continued his genetic experiments and finally produced a round mouse that survived gene modification. The chapter ended with Su Hao promising Taini a bone tablet if she cared for the unusual, scaled mouse.

• Su Hao tested a sound transmitter made from conversion steel and instructed Ashan to hold an annual meeting, reward devoted members, and interview Society members before building its organizational framework.
• Ashan took notes on Su Hao’s instructions and considered asking Taini to help him understand them.
• Su Hao returned to genetic experiments, using Taini’s round mice to gather data for his gene simulation transcription system.
• After two months of experiments, one round mouse survived gene modification, revealing a key factor that Su Hao used to refine his system.
• Su Hao brought the scaled, nearly fur-less mouse to Taini and offered her a bone tablet if she cared for it.

The Four Kings Gang debated expanding its control over Abyss City and how to treat Wei, while news of Wei’s victory over the Heaven Sand Gang spread across the region. Su Hao remained unaware of his growing fame in Temple Forest City as the story eventually became a legend.

At sixteen, Su Hao had spent three years advancing his gene research and developing reliable methods to modify Round Mice and induce Transcendental evolution. He left his laboratory determined to find volunteers for human experiments.

• Su Hao spent three years researching genes in his Experiment Base after destroying the Heaven Sand Gang in Abyss City.
• His gene modifications transformed Round Mice into many unusual forms, and their post-modification survival rate rose above 90%.
• Su Hao deciphered foundational genes and learned to implant Transcendental Gene Fragments alongside Blood Qi Enhancement Gene Fragments to enable evolution.
• Su Hao concluded he could potentially evolve Zhu Huo people as far as Level 4 Inhuman, though he lacked enough data to safely attempt Level 5.
• Su Hao left the laboratory to seek volunteers for human experimentation.

Su Hao prepared to leave Temple Forest City for up to two years and began teaching Ashan to fly so he could protect himself. His first lesson ended with Ashan panicking and plummeting from the sky.

• Su Hao told Ashan that he planned to leave Temple Forest City for a while and promised to engrave more Level 2 Runes before departing.
• Ashan admitted that Su Hao’s departure made him feel anxious, so Su Hao checked his Steel Armor Control and decided to teach him flight.
• Su Hao designed flying armor for Ashan and coached him as he built a pair of wings.
• Su Hao took Ashan high above the ground, explained how to control his flight, then let go.
• Ashan lost control in a panic and fell while Su Hao watched, expecting the scare to help him stay calm next time.

Su Hao traveled to Chiyang City, built a hidden mountain laboratory, and waited for nightfall to observe the city’s Inhumans and help ordinary people caught in their battles. After a crash drew him toward a fight, he masked himself and approached the scene.

• Ashan learned to control his flight, and Su Hao left Temple Forest City for Chiyang City.
• Su Hao hollowed out a mountain near the city to build a concealed laboratory and equipped it with rune-powered lighting and a nearby water source.
• Su Hao entered Chiyang City, bought daily necessities and insect-repellent medicine, then returned to his laboratory as night fell.
• Su Hao searched for ordinary people endangered by fights between Inhumans, reflecting that he could not protect every city or easily change the Zhu Huo People's evolution-driven society.
• After a thunderous crash sounded in Chiyang City, Su Hao flew toward it, concealed his appearance with Steel Armor, and asked, “Do you need help?”

Su Hao rescued Ah Qiang and seven other ordinary people from near death, brought them to his Laboratory, and trained them to build up their Blood Qi. Two months later, he began the first stage of his experiment by asking them to collect their own blood.

• Su Hao healed Ah Qiang after Ah Li agreed that Ah Qiang would follow him for a year and cooperate with a potentially fatal experiment.
• Su Hao rescued two more people, brought all three to the Laboratory, and introduced himself as Boss Wei.
• Su Hao gathered eight rescued people at the Laboratory, taught them to exercise and accumulate Blood Qi, and required them to memorize the Inhuman Code of Conduct.
• Ah Qiang told Xia Tu that he trusted Boss Wei and trained hard so he could survive the experiment and return to Ah Li.
• Two months later, Su Hao announced a four-stage experiment and handed out knives and numbered bottles, and Ah Qiang immediately cut his finger to collect blood.

Su Hao designed and tested a Swift One Gene for Ah Qiang, successfully evolving him with Gene Modification Fluid. The chapter ended with Ah Qiang demonstrating extraordinary speed before the astonished onlookers.

• Su Hao asked Ah Qiang to choose an Inhuman Sequence, and Ah Qiang chose the Swift One.
• Su Hao designed a Swift One Gene matched to Ah Qiang and confirmed with a small tissue test that the modification worked.
• Su Hao injected Ah Qiang with the prepared Gene Modification Fluid, and Ah Qiang's vitality and muscles strengthened as the evolution succeeded.
• Ah Qiang woke feeling powerful and hungry, then followed Su Hao to the open ground to test his speed.
• Ah Qiang sprinted a hundred meters in an instant, leaving the seven onlookers stunned and curious about what had happened in the Laboratory.

Su Hao successfully evolved Ah Qiang and the other Zhu Huo People into Level 1 Inhumans, while realizing that his powerful young body was beginning to affect his thoughts. After confirming Ah Qiang had awakened a new ability, Su Hao prepared to try evolving him into a Level 2 High-Speeder.

• Su Hao gave Ah Qiang a training booklet after successfully evolving him into a Swift One, then later selected Na Qi to become a Residual Poisoner.
• Five days after Na Qi's first visit, Su Hao completed his evolution, and Na Qi's explosive, foul-smelling ability caused the others to flee and avoid him.
• A month later, all the subjects had become Level 1 Inhumans, confirming Su Hao's first-stage experiment had succeeded.
• Su Hao recognized that his strengthened body was influencing his thoughts and used meditation to steady his mind.
• After about twenty days of training, Ah Qiang awakened Silent Movement, and Su Hao found that his injected Gene Modification Fluid had given him greater Blood Qi intensity than ordinary Swift Ones.
• Su Hao told Ah Qiang to return in four days so they could attempt his evolution into a Level 2 High-Speeder.

Su Hao’s gene modification experiments successfully evolved eight subjects into Level 4 Inhumans, and their one-year agreement ended with their return to Chiyang City. After giving Ah Qiang Runes to enforce the Inhuman Code of Conduct, Su Hao left to research how patterns could be expressed through genes.

• Ah Qiang became a Level 2 High-Speeder with Super Speed and Dynamic Vision, and Su Hao gave him instructions for trying to awaken more abilities.
• Na Qi and the other subjects successfully evolved, and over the following year all eight reached Level 4.
• Su Hao ended the subjects’ one-year agreement, warned them to follow the Inhuman Code of Conduct, and said he would leave to find another experimental site.
• Su Hao gave Ah Qiang Level 2—Lightning and Level 2—Barrier Runes and tasked him with stopping or eliminating anyone who broke the rules.
• Su Hao planned to research pattern expression for a year before collecting Level 5 and higher Inhuman genes, then entered Marble Space to begin his research.

After returning to Temple Forest City, Su Hao helped Ashan reorganize the Temple Forest Society and built a much larger Experimental Base for his research. He found a beetle that might lead to a breakthrough in the Rune Array Disk Gene, and the Society’s hunt for it devastated the local population.

• Su Hao returned to Temple Forest City, reassured the exhausted Ashan, and spent three hours advising him on the Society’s problems and management.
• Su Hao told Ashan to prioritize results over relationships and asked him to gather many patterned animals for experiments.
• Ashan arranged an enormous new Experimental Base, where Su Hao moved in with Ashan and Taini; Taini had grown into a thoughtful young woman.
• Two months later, Su Hao identified the Ring Star Insect as a possible breakthrough for the Rune Array Disk Gene and ordered Ashan to find as many as possible.
• Ashan rallied the Temple Forest Society with rewards for capturing Ring Star Insects, and its members hunted every one within a hundred-mile radius in three days.

Su Hao developed a method to map and control the pattern genes of Ring Star Insects, then used it to engrave a Strong Light Rune onto a Round Mouse. As he turned toward embedding runes in flesh and blood, a group of powerful Inhumans from the Four Kings Gang entered his Radar range near Temple Forest City.

• Su Hao captured Ring Star Insects and compared their genes and patterns until he isolated the gene fragment that controlled pattern formation.
• Over several months, Su Hao established a Pattern Coordinate System and learned to control gene expression using Initiation and Termination Sequences.
• Su Hao began experimenting on Round Mice, designed a gene modification fluid, and injected it to gather data on their pattern coordinates.
• After a month, Su Hao established the Round Mouse coordinate system and continued testing until he successfully engraved a Strong Light Rune on a Round Mouse.
• Su Hao considered his next step—engraving runes inside the body to create Blood Qi compatibility gaps—when more than a dozen Inhumans appeared on his Radar.
• Su Hao recognized the group as members of the Four Kings Gang and wondered why they had come to Temple Forest City.

Ashan brought the battered Four Kings Gang into Temple Forest City after learning that Earth Monarch and Mist Monarch had driven them from Abyss City. Su Hao met Gaili the next day, only to learn that the gang had come to seek refuge, leaving Xiao Tong and Kas stunned.

• Su Hao sent Ashan and the Temple Forest Society to intercept the Four Kings Gang outside the city and learn why they had come.
• Gaili told Ashan that Earth Monarch and Mist Monarch had defeated the gang, while Extreme Monarch Kana fled and Origin Monarch remained behind fighting.
• Ashan let the Four Kings Gang enter Temple Forest City, partly because Earth Monarch was a target for Su Hao and Ashan’s evolution.
• Ashan arranged accommodations for the gang and told Su Hao about their defeat; Su Hao said he would meet them the next day.
• Gaili told Su Hao that the Four Kings Gang had nowhere to go and wanted to seek refuge, prompting Xiao Tong and Kas to protest.

Su Hao questioned Gaili about the Four Kings Gang’s request to settle in Temple Forest City and learned that Gaili was a Prophet, a rare Zhu Huo People with an innate ability rather than an Inhuman Sequence. The chapter ended with Su Hao asking what a Prophet’s ability was.

• Gaili praised Temple Forest City as the city of his dreams and explained that the Four Kings Gang sought to protect ordinary people from Inhuman violence.
• Su Hao told Gaili that the city’s peace depended on absolute strength and warned that no individual could prevent darkness from returning everywhere.
• Gaili requested three years of unconditional residence for the Four Kings Gang as a subordinate squad of the Temple Forest Society, and Su Hao asked for more information before deciding.
• Su Hao confirmed that Gaili was a Prophet and asked him to explain the nature of Prophets.
• Gaili revealed that Prophets were a rare group of Zhu Huo People whose abilities were innate, unlike the abilities of the eight Inhuman Sequences, which had originated among Exotic Beasts.
• Su Hao asked Gaili what a Prophet’s ability was.

Su Hao welcomed Gaili and the Four Kings Gang into Temple Forest City, then secretly studied Gaili’s Prophet abilities in his laboratory. After learning that powerful Inhumans were fleeing unrest near Anliang City, Su Hao sensed danger approaching and set out to obtain Earth Monarch’s flesh and blood so he could grow stronger.

• Gaili explained that Prophets used contact to acquire information and analysis to derive likely outcomes, and revealed that he was also a Level 5 Mimic Sequence Inhuman.
• Gaili told Su Hao that Earth Monarch and Mist Monarch remained in Abyss City and that powerful Inhumans were fleeing unrest near Anliang City.
• Su Hao agreed to let Gaili and the Four Kings Gang move into Temple Forest City, then brought Gaili to his Experimental Base and kept him in the laboratory for two days.
• Su Hao found that Prophet Gene would not express in other animals and decided to prioritize Rune Gene research and obtain Earth Monarch’s flesh and blood.
• Su Hao told Ashan not to disturb him, then secretly used Conversion Steel to leave the city and flew into the night.

Su Hao attacked Earth Monarch Donglan and Mist Monarch Beibei in Abyss City with a massive bomb, intending to kill the monarchs responsible for the city's devastation. The blast badly injured them but failed to kill them, and Su Hao faced the two as Mist Monarch vanished into the surrounding air.

• Su Hao saw Abyss City in ruins and decided to kill Earth Monarch Donglan and Mist Monarch Beibei instead of merely injuring them.
• Su Hao dropped a Level 2-Two-Hundred-Blast on Stan's former palace to wake the monarchs.
• Mist Monarch Beibei sensed the incoming bomb and woke Earth Monarch Donglan, who transformed to protect himself as she turned to mist.
• The bomb destroyed the palace and severely injured both monarchs, but they survived the explosion.
• Su Hao descended to confront them, and Earth Monarch Donglan told Mist Monarch Beibei to stay back while she vanished into the surrounding air.

Su Hao fought Earth Monarch Donglan, repeatedly breaking through his Black Crystal attacks and cutting him apart. Donglan regenerated from his wounds and, enraged, summoned the Black Stone Giant.

• Earth Monarch Donglan trapped Su Hao in Black Crystal, but Su Hao sliced through it and escaped.
• Su Hao broke through Donglan’s massive Black Crystal defenses, severed his hand, and cut open his chest, but Donglan quickly regenerated.

• Su Hao struck Donglan with Lightning and beheaded him, but Donglan formed a new head from Black Crystal.
• Earth Monarch Donglan stomped the ground and roared, summoning the Black Stone Giant.

Su Hao fought Earth Monarch Donglan and Mist Monarch Beibei, overcoming their attacks and turning Donglan’s Black Crystal terrain into Steel Armor. As Donglan and Beibei escaped into the sky, Su Hao revealed that he could fly too.

• Earth Monarch Donglan transformed into a giant while Mist Monarch Beibei blinded Su Hao and bound him with corrosive mist serpents.
• Su Hao used Little Light’s real-time simulation to locate Donglan, then survived Donglan’s giant stomp.
• Su Hao countered the Mist Snakes with Level 2—Corrosion and used High Temperature to keep them away.
• Su Hao converted Donglan’s Black Crystal terrain into Steel Armor across a range of more than a thousand meters and unleashed Fire Dragon Domain, burning away most of Beibei’s mist.
• Su Hao bound Donglan’s giant form and began converting its Black Crystal armor, but Donglan escaped it and Beibei carried him into the sky.
• Su Hao watched them fly away and said that he could fly too.

Su Hao defeated Mist Monarch Beibei and pursued Earth Monarch Donglan, who escaped underground. After Su Hao killed Beibei and cornered Donglan, Donglan faked his death, and Su Hao considered chopping up his body.

• Mist Monarch Beibei dropped Earth Monarch Donglan so she could flee, but Su Hao struck Donglan with Lightning and cut him into four pieces.
• Su Hao caught up to Beibei, repeatedly shocked her until her Blood Qi ran out, then beheaded her.
• Su Hao carried Beibei’s corpse outside the city while Donglan escaped through an underground tunnel.
• Donglan surfaced and found Su Hao waiting for him; unable to burrow through the Steel Armor ground, he begged for his life.
• Su Hao cut off Donglan’s head, but noticed his Blood Qi was fading too slowly and realized Donglan was playing dead.
• Su Hao circled Donglan and considered chopping up his body to make it easier to carry.

Su Hao killed Earth Monarch Donglan after questioning him about the flight from Anliang City and the Level 7 Life Child. He learned that a Level 7 killer called Fierce Child Slaughter had been slaughtering Inhumans and resolved to evolve quickly before heading to Huiyang City.

• Su Hao repeatedly hacked Earth Monarch Donglan apart until Donglan ran out of strength, then demanded to know why he had come to Abyss City.
• Donglan explained that Fierce Child Slaughter had massacred Anliang City's Inhumans and driven survivors to flee, and he named the Level 7 titles of several Inhuman Sequences.
• Donglan told Su Hao that a Life Child nearing the end of his lifespan was in Huiyang City, where Earth Monarchs had gathered to seek his flesh.
• Su Hao killed Donglan, took his flesh and blood, and worried that Fierce Child Slaughter might be coming for him.
• Su Hao decided to evolve into a Level 6 Earth Monarch as soon as possible, then flew away from ruined Abyss City with two corpses in baskets formed from his Steel Armor.
