Chapter Summaries

Lord Locke had spent more than sixty quadrillion years advancing his Law of Space, but remained unable to reach Great Perfection. The Death Overlord gave him the Heart of the Netherworld, whose creation let him experience space’s evolution and recognize the limits of his understanding.

• The Four Divine Beast Family’s higher-ups blamed the Ancestral Ritual Baptism’s Magic Array for wasting Lord God Essence Blood but chose not to investigate further.
• Luo An brought Levia to Nether Mountain, where the Death Overlord accepted her as her daughter-in-law and other Lord Gods sought her favor.
• Lord Locke fused the Water Law and Fate Law and advanced his Law of Space to ninety-nine percent, but failed to cross the final step to Space Great Perfection.
• The Death Overlord gave Lord Locke the Heart of the Netherworld, and he bound it with his blood to enter its consciousness.
• Lord Locke experienced the Netherworld’s creation and evolution, learning that the Law of Space was whole and seamless rather than a collection of separate profound mysteries.

Locke perfected the Law of Space and became the Magic Universe’s first living Space Supreme God through cultivation. After saving the Nether Mountain Range from Death Overlord’s released power, he returned the Heart of the Netherworld to Lilia and said he needed to enter seclusion again, leaving her wondering why.

• Locke merged Space Transfer, Space Solidification, and Space Shattering, completing the Law of Space and advancing to become a Space Supreme God.
• Locke’s spatial pressure restrained Death Overlord, who used the Death Supreme Artifact to break free.
• Death Overlord’s power threatened the Nether Mountain Range when Locke’s spatial pressure vanished, but Locke contained it with the Law of Space before it could spread.
• Locke apologized to Death Overlord and returned the Heart of the Netherworld to her, restoring her control over the Netherworld.
• Locke told Lilia that he needed to enter seclusion again, and she asked why after he had perfected the Law of Space.

Locke perfected the Law of Space and began imprinting it into his bloodline, aiming to transform his Di Jiang Bloodline into that of a Space-element Super Divine Beast. While he cultivated, the Death Overlord visited the Life God Realm without him, and Locke’s bloodline breakthrough culminated in a devastating aura that he contained within a spatial domain.

• Locke told the Death Overlord that he had become a Supreme God of Space and would use the perfected Law of Space to transform his bloodline into that of a Space-element Super Divine Beast.
• The Death Overlord left Locke to cultivate and traveled alone to the Life God Realm, where Luo An, Levia, and Life Overlord Vivian asked after him.
• The Death Overlord explained that Locke had entered seclusion again before learning that Luo An and Levia were there, and Levia reassured Luo An that his cultivation mattered most.
• Locke repeatedly imprinted the perfected Law of Space into his bloodline, turning his golden blood red and manifesting ordered spatial elements around himself.
• When Locke’s final golden blood transformed, his aura destroyed the Water Mansion, so he quickly enclosed himself and the aura within a spatial domain isolated from the Netherworld.

After advancing to the God King realm, Lord Locke mastered his new power and searched the planes for Death Overlord Lilia. He found her in the Life God Realm, where he arrived unnoticed and stopped her startled attack before it could damage the Tree of Life.

• Lord Locke completed his seclusion, learned to control his power, and restored the Water Mansion he had destroyed.
• Lord Locke spread his Soul Power across the Seven Great God Planes, the Four Supreme Planes, and countless Material Planes, locating Death Overlord Lilia.
• Lord Locke traveled to the Life God Realm and surprised Life Overlord Vivian with his undetectable presence.
• Lord Locke approached Lilia, who struck backward when he called her name, alarming Luo An and Levia.
• Lord Locke used a rotating vortex of space to dissipate Lilia's attack before it could harm the Tree of Life.

Locke reunited with Lilia after his bloodline advancement left him able to conceal his aura completely, and he learned that Levia was carrying Luo An’s child. He reflected on the fate of descendants across vast spans of time, leaving the survival of later generations as an unresolved concern.

• Locke used the Water-Space Law to neutralize Lilia’s attack, then revealed himself to the startled Death Overlord.
• Locke explained that his breakthrough had led him to seal his blood and vitality within his body, hiding his aura even from Lilia.
• Locke sensed that Levia was carrying his third-generation descendant, Luo An’s child, and considered the child’s prospects and whether to grant them a Netherworld Fruit later.
• Locke reflected that he had chosen Lilia partly because she could endure the passage of time and continue walking alongside him.
• Locke considered how later generations of the Four Divine Beast Family had disappeared over countless eras, with only a few descendants remaining in the ancestral lands.

Lord Locke discussed higher Laws with his family at Life Overlord Vivian’s residence, helping Luo An and the Death Overlord Lilia pursue breakthroughs. Vivian listened and sensed a connection to the Life Law, but she could not yet grasp the higher Laws, so Lord Locke left her to wait until the others finished.

• Lord Locke welcomed Luo An and pregnant Levia, stopping Levia from bowing and prompting Luo An to resent his father’s favoritism.
• The family discussed cultivation beyond Paragon, and Levia learned that Lord Locke had organized the path to higher Laws.
• Life Overlord Vivian quietly joined the discussion, recognizing a connection between the Law of Reincarnation and the Life Law but failing to comprehend it.
• Lord Locke continued teaching because Luo An and Lilia’s sparks of inspiration were active and stopping could hinder their breakthroughs.
• Lord Locke sensed that Luo An might advance before Lilia and tailored his explanations to keep both of their insights growing.

Locke contained Luo An within a pocket of space as the Law of Heaven and Earth engraved the Law of Space on his soul, helping him break through to Lower Heavenly God. Luo An emerged from Locke’s palm and realized the towering pillars he had seen were his father’s fingers.

• Locke sealed the space around Luo An in his palm, and the Law of Heaven and Earth descended only within that pocket.
• Locke poured soul power refined from Amethyst Crystals over Luo An as the Law of Space strained and refined his soul.
• Luo An’s soul formed a Soul Golden Core, received the Law of Space, and he celebrated his breakthrough to Lower Heavenly God.
• Luo An explored the pocket space, mistook Locke’s fingers for heavenly pillars, and nearly urinated before Locke coughed to stop him.
• Luo An tore open the space and returned to normal size, realizing he had been inside Locke’s palm.

Luo An began refining spatial elements into spatial divine power after comprehending the Law of Space, while Lord Locke warned him not to claim Sovereign strength prematurely. As the Death Overlord reached a breakthrough in the Law of Reincarnation, the Law of Heaven and Earth descended around Lord Locke and the others.

• Lord Locke told Luo An that he needed to refine spatial divine power before revealing his Lesser Sovereign strength.
• Luo An drew chaotic spatial elements from the Spatial Turbulence and found that his Soul Power let him refine them more easily than expected.
• Life Overlord Vivian moved away from the Death Overlord to avoid disturbing her enlightenment.
• Lord Locke continued guiding the Death Overlord, whose inspiration erupted ten years later and triggered the Law of Heaven and Earth.
• Lord Locke tested the descending Law of Heaven and Earth, and the space around him cracked as Life Overlord Vivian watched in alarm.

Luo An studied how the Law of Heaven and Earth applied the Law of Space, improving his own understanding while Death Sovereign Lilia received the Law of Reincarnation. After Lilia broke through, Life Overlord Vivian learned that Lord Locke had guided her and asked to learn the higher law too.

• Luo An shattered and studied space within the Law of Heaven and Earth, learning how it repaired damage and strengthened its spatial restraints.
• The Law of Heaven and Earth inscribed the Law of Reincarnation onto Death Sovereign Lilia’s Sovereign Spark, which changed as the inscription took effect.
• Luo An stopped probing the blessing to avoid damaging the Magic Universe, then congratulated Lilia on her breakthrough.
• Life Overlord Vivian appeared disheveled and teased Lilia before asking when she had reached Paragon and what she had cultivated during the blessing.
• Lilia told Vivian that Lord Locke had guided her, and Vivian thanked her brother-in-law after Luo An approved sharing the knowledge.

Life Overlord Vivian called Locke her big brother-in-law after the Death Overlord approved, and Lilia began explaining the higher laws to her. Locke tested the Magic Universe’s boundary, drew in Primordial Qi, and felt Grandmist’s gaze; he abandoned the experiment and returned to studying the recorded mysteries of the Law of Space.

• Life Overlord Vivian called Locke her big brother-in-law, and Death Overlord Lilia tacitly approved of the new familial bond.
• Death Overlord Lilia explained how Vivian could cultivate higher laws after reaching Paragon.
• Locke opened a small breach in the Magic Universe and observed its Law of Heaven and Earth break Primordial Qi into the seven elemental laws.
• Grandmist’s gaze immobilized Locke, warning him not to break the universe’s space again.
• Locke returned to the Life God Realm and studied the Law of Space mysteries he had recorded while Luo An refined spatial divine power and Lilia taught Vivian the Law of Reincarnation.

Bellute arrived at the Nether Mountain Range seeking Netherworld Fruits to strengthen his three sons, whose weakness left them vulnerable to his enemies. He entered Green Leaf Castle and listened in a tavern for information about the mountain range.

• The chapter explained that Netherworld Fruits could instantly fuse Profound Mysteries but permanently ended the consumer’s potential for further advancement, so the grade of a fruit mattered.
• Bellute recalled how his strength and past feuds put his three weaker sons at risk, especially after his wife had died in an attack.
• Bellute decided to seek Netherworld Fruits so his sons could gain enough strength to leave the Yulan Plane safely.
• Bellute reached Green Leaf Castle, settled into a small tavern, and listened to other patrons for useful intelligence.

Bellute learned that the Locke Family’s little princess was coming down from Nether Mountain and considered seeking her out for the secret of cultivating gods to Sovereign-level strength. At Nether Mountain, Locke raged at Gela Locke for letting Rena Locke leave alone.

• Two intelligence agents announced that the Locke Family’s little princess was coming down from Nether Mountain, shocking the tavern’s patrons.
• Bellute reflected on the Locke Family’s ability to cultivate gods to Sovereign-level strength and considered taking his sons to seek out the princess after finding Netherworld Fruits.
• News of the princess’s descent spread across the five Green Leaf Castles surrounding the Nether Mountain Range.
• At Nether Mountain, Locke confronted Gela Locke after learning that Gela had let Rena Locke leave alone, while Lilia tried to calm him.

Locke erupted when he learned that Rena had left Nether Mountain, but Death Overlord Lilia reminded him of the powerful protections he had prepared for her. Lilia revealed that she had also sent Ninisha to secretly follow Rena.

• Locke read Gla's memories and learned that Gla had sent Rena out to train after she became a god through Fate Law.
• Locke summoned and berated Gla, Luo An, and Weil for allowing Rena to leave Nether Mountain.
• Death Overlord Lilia explained that Rena's three-Law Soul Variant could fuse five Profound Mysteries and was protected by a Supreme Artifact and Locke's sealed blood essence.
• Lilia reassured Locke that she had secretly sent Ninisha to follow Rena.

Locke reflected on Ninisha’s limited ability to comprehend the Law of Time, then used his Soul Power to locate the newly descended Rena. Meanwhile, Bellute raced through the Nether Mountain Range to claim a Netherworld Fruit for his three sons.

• The Death Overlord told Locke that Ninisha had been sent to protect Rena, and Locke recalled her struggle to comprehend the Law of Time.
• Locke reasoned that Ninisha could keep Rena safe and spread his Soul Power to find the little princess.
• Word of Rena’s descent spread, leading powerful beings across the planes to avoid attacking newly appeared female deities.
• Bellute entered the Nether Mountain Range to seize three Netherworld Fruits for his sons and spotted one falling into the mist.
• Bellute overtook the other contenders and reached the fallen Netherworld Fruit before the third layer of mist confused his sense of direction.

Bellute seized a Netherworld Fruit in the third layer of mist but was ambushed by Fred, whose attack exposed Bellute’s immunity to Spatial Turbulence. Locke watched the clash from Nether Mountain and guessed Bellute was collecting fruits for his three sons.

• Bellute’s confused sense of direction made him miss the Netherworld Fruit at first, but he swept his hand around and caught it.
• Fred struck Bellute while he held the fruit, sending part of Bellute’s arm into Spatial Turbulence and destroying the fruit.
• Fred realized Bellute’s arm had survived Spatial Turbulence and feared he had attacked either a Paragon or a Sovereign Envoy.
• Bellute drew back his unharmed arm, summoned a black staff, and attacked Fred in anger.
• Locke watched Bellute fight and reasoned that Bellute had come to seek Netherworld Fruits for his three children.

Locke entered the Elemental Plane to study the fusion of its elemental laws, hoping to find another path to transcendence and secure a first-rank Hong Meng Controller position. He left still searching for a way to fuse the four elemental laws and create a universe beyond the Hong Meng Golden Ranking.

• Locke reflected on Bellute’s history and the Eight Great Clans’ secret trade of Four Divine Beast essence blood with Luo An’s subordinates.
• Locke decided that Bellute was not yet important to his plans and resolved not to contact Linley before Linley completed his four-element Soul Mutation.
• Locke sent his Water Element Divine Clone to protect Rena, informed Lilia, and traveled through Spatial Turbulence to the edge of the Magic Universe.
• Locke opened a rift into the Elemental Plane and flew to its upper reaches to study the fusion of elemental laws.
• Locke considered how mastering the four elemental laws might let him create Hong Meng Power and pursue a first-rank position on the Hong Meng Golden Ranking.

Rena and Ninisha entered the Purple Thorn Mountain Range so Rena could test herself against its Amethyst Beasts. Rena easily killed one and, unimpressed, looked toward the deeper regions for a greater challenge.

• Rena asked Ninisha about the mist in the Purple Thorn Mountain Range, and Ninisha explained that it was created by a Sovereign to keep weaker gods away from dangerous Amethyst Beasts.
• Rena decided to seek out an Amethyst Beast and test her strength, and Ninisha agreed to accompany her.
• Rena and Ninisha traveled deeper into the range, where Rena’s powerful soul and Ninisha’s Paragon strength let them withstand the mist’s Soul Attacks.
• Rena flew toward the sound of approaching footsteps and encountered a huge, armadillo-like Amethyst Beast.
• Rena dodged the beast’s charge and shattered it with a crescent-shaped attack, then dismissed it as weak and turned her attention toward the deeper regions.

Rena fought through a rampaging horde of Purple Crystal Beasts in the Purple Thorn Mountain Range, drawing the attention of Leisjing and his protector Leihong. Leihong recognized her spear as a reminder of a terrifying Quasi-Great Perfection expert, while Ninisha remained hidden nearby.

• Leisjing learned that an outsider had killed many Purple Crystal Beasts and set out with Leihong to confront her.
• Rena followed the retreating beasts, saw gods swallowed by the horde, and was dragged to the ground by immense gravity.
• Rena used her black spear and Wind Law to pierce even the largest Purple Crystal Beasts.
• Leisjing wondered whether Rena's spear was a Sovereign Artifact, but Leihong confirmed that it was not.
• Leihong sensed a hidden presence and told Leisjing about a Quasi-Great Perfection expert whose Innate Divine Ability had killed a powerful opponent instantly.

Leisjing and Leihong realized that Rena might be protected by Bellute, whose Godslaying ability could devour godheads, and Leisjing ended the Purple Crystal Beast riot. Leihong apologized to Rena on their behalf and offered to make amends, while Rena inferred that they knew about her elders.

• Leihong told Leisjing that Bellute could devour godheads with his Innate Divine Ability and explained the power of Godhead Weapons.
• Leisjing recognized Rena's black spear as a Godhead Weapon and feared Bellute might be protecting her from the shadows.
• Rena spotted Leisjing with Leihong and realized the intelligent Purple Crystal Beast had caused the riot.
• Leisjing dispersed Purple Crystal Space, allowing Rena to fly up and confront him and Leihong.
• Leihong took responsibility for the riot and asked Rena what would make amends; Rena realized they were yielding because of her elders.

Rena learned that Leihong recognized her through her father's Godhead Weapon, then left the Misty Mountain Range after vowing to challenge him again when she was stronger. Leisjing resolved to follow her example, while the Purple Thorn Sovereign watched in alarm as Lord Locke confronted her about his actions.

• Rena asked Leihong how he had recognized her elder and learned that he had seen her father's Godhead Weapon.
• Rena admitted Leihong could have killed her, then vowed to return and defeat him after she grew stronger before flying out of the Misty Mountain Range.
• Leisjing felt ashamed that he had relied on his mother's protection and admired Rena's courage, then called out to her as she left.
• The Purple Thorn Sovereign watched Leisjing's actions with her Spiritual Sense while Lord Locke sat on her throne and questioned her about how she had raised him.
• The Purple Thorn Sovereign offered to capture Leisjing, worried that Lord Locke would not protect him if Rena were harmed.
