He revealed that they had exterminated all life across every Three-Dimensional World and every transcender, leaving the others horrified by the scale of their sacrifice.

At the one-year deadline, Lin Li completed his super-dimensional ascension, and the group became pure spacetime lifeforms poised to advance toward the eighth dimension.

  • Huang Ji used his Information Sense to examine future possibilities and concluded that the Game Player in Black had artificially sealed his route to the Root-level.
  • Huang Ji realized that Lin Li, Rui Ji, Lan Jue, Shi Ge Mu, and others could still reach the Root-level and might help him gain Infinite Thinking or another Absolute Characteristic.

He revealed that the ninth dimension was the summit and that the universe’s lack of a Supreme One prevented life from becoming a threat to its survival.

  • Huang Ji led the group from the eighth-dimensional energy sea into the Pure Vacuum, where he shattered under its negative pressure and then reconstructed himself.

  • Huang Ji declared that life had to change nature and split the eight-dimensional Energy Sea, forming an eight-dimensional black hole that could supply or cut off energy to laws.

Ch. 1031Perpetual Motion Machine Life

Huang Ji created a universe-run reincarnation law for π-level Souls, then Shi Ge Mu and other Transcenders began ascending to the ninth dimension to confront Ni Guang. Lin Li learned that Pure Vacuum life used folded spacetime and gravity to survive long enough to transcend, and recognized the Sacred Geometry Body as the basis for perpetual-motion life.

  • Huang Ji engraved an eighth-dimensional law that returned π-level Souls facing erasure to the Soul Sea, though it could not revive Souls already lost.
  • Shi Ge Mu transformed into a Pure Vacuum lifeform and ascended to the ninth dimension after Huang Ji asked her to stall Ni Guang for three days in philosophical time.

  • Rui Ji explained to Lin Li that folded spacetime could confine gravitational waves and form a zero-energy lifeform capable of surviving briefly in the eighth dimension.

Ch. 1032Time Corridor

Shi Ge Mu entered the ninth-dimensional Time Corridor and tried to advance toward a Twelve Yuan Ultimate Body, but Yuan Shen repeatedly attacked and reset her progress while trying to lure her into the Ascension Land. Yuan Shen described it as a path to the Absolute Universe, leaving Shi Ge Mu stunned by his chosen challenge: creating a perfect circle that could exist physically even in one-dimensional spacetime.

  • Shi Ge Mu learned that she could travel between temporal states in the Time Corridor, where moving through time zones transformed her body and advanced her toward Twelve Yuan.

Ch. 1035Physical Immunity

Shi Ge Mu used Manifestation Power and Negentropy Module Technology to teleport, but Yuan Shen manipulated her into truly entering the Ascension Land. After her attempt to erase him failed, she learned that his Absolute Characteristic, Physical Immunity, made him invulnerable to every physical power.

  • Shi Ge Mu used Manifestation Power and Negentropy Module Technology to teleport, but Yuan Shen moved the Ascension Land entrance to her destination and made her enter it.
  • Shi Ge Mu realized that true entry required accepting the Ascension Land, and her resolve to face it had triggered the change that suppressed her into three dimensions.

Yuan Shen overwhelmed the arriving Ziwei fighters with powerful clones, but Shi Ge Mu restored her Manifestation Power by changing time zones and became a pinnacle supreme being. Huang Ji then exposed Yuan Shen’s Physical Immunity as a characteristic fueled by legal tender, leaving Shi Ge Mu to realize that abolishing currency could counter it—though Yuan Shen claimed the only immediate solution was to destroy every civilization.

  • Yuan Shen created numerous clones from spacetime and local materials, using them to fight the arriving Ziwei fighters and draw them into Ascension Land.
  • As Yuan Shen tried to kill Shi Ge Mu, she changed time zones, restored her Manifestation Power and Soul Origin, and reached pinnacle strength.
