Chapter Summaries

Wenren Sheng revealed that Shi Tian’s Small World gold might be spiritual energy, but Shi Tian’s experiments showed that eating it was dangerous. With Zhang Si Shui’s help, Shi Tian gained Extraordinary Power through the fish tank, became a celebrated athlete, and was captured after the tank was stolen. Wenren Sheng returned the tank to Shi Tian, who began breaking out as the organization faced the consequences of its arrogance.

• Wenren Sheng questioned Shi Tian’s choices and warned him to investigate the gold before using it, but Shi Tian fed it to a dog and nearly poisoned it.
• Zhang Si Shui appeared in the fish tank and taught Shi Tian a Life Force cultivation method that gave him Extraordinary Power anchored to the tank.
• Shi Tian used his power to become a record-breaking athlete and celebrity, but spies stole his fish tank during a competition, leaving him powerless.
• Shi Tian recovered the tank, but an organization seized it and imprisoned him with it in a secret laboratory for research.
• Wenren Sheng made the tank fly into Shi Tian’s body, restoring his power, and Shi Tian cracked the laboratory’s bulletproof glass wall as the organization’s members blamed their hardline approach.

Shi Tian transformed into a planet-scale being after the General’s forces attacked him, then fell asleep while his body adapted to its immense size. Zhang Si Shui tried to seize the sleeping body as the General’s group planned to find and destroy its core.

• Shi Tian rampaged through the base, learned the General had ordered his capture, and grew into a gigantic creature whose power affected those around him.
• After a conventional warhead blasted him apart, Shi Tian reassembled, grew to thousands of kilometers in size, and became part of the Earth.
• Shi Tian hid his brain and heart deep beneath the crust and fell asleep so his body could develop new systems, leaving him slow and vulnerable.
• Zhang Si Shui emerged and tried to take over Shi Tian’s body, but found its immense size made controlling it difficult without extraordinary power.
• The General gathered his subordinates, and they agreed to kill Shi Tian while he slept by locating his core, such as his brain.

Humanity struggled to contain the 3,000-kilometer giant after Zhang Si Shui took control of Shi Tian’s body, and tried to appease him with food and entertainment. When Zhang Si Shui grew bored and attacked Wenren Sheng, Wenren Sheng erased him, leaving Shi Tian awake in his original size and ready to flee again.

• Humanity’s leaders turned against the general who had provoked the giant and considered how to reach Shi Tian and appease the deity.
• Zhang Si Shui controlled the giant body, frightened a city, and accepted offerings of food, books, music, and films.
• When the offerings failed to satisfy him, Zhang Si Shui demanded an enormous pancake, and people assembled one; he rewarded them by creating an island.
• A week later, Zhang Si Shui grew bored, rose from the sea, and caused waves and destruction as people fled.
• Zhang Si Shui insulted Wenren Sheng and attacked him, but Wenren Sheng erased his body and soul.
• Shi Tian woke in his former size, realized he needed to flee, and the people remained unaware of what had happened.

After returning to his villa, Wenren Sheng discovered that Little Illusion had turned it into a clinic for Small World Masters and was sending him patients as their cure. He formed a World Saving Team, recruited Tang Seng as its captain, and began searching for a professional fighter.

• Wenren Sheng returned to his villa and found Little Illusion treating a long line of Small World Masters at her Myriad Worlds Clinic.
• Little Illusion sent a World Will whose world had been invaded by an Evil God to Wenren Sheng, who gave it a way to restore its world.
• Wenren Sheng realized Little Illusion had been prescribing him to handle the cases, so he decided to form a World Saving Team and recruit helpers.
• Wenren Sheng chose Tang Seng as the team's captain and brought him from the modernized world of Journey to the West.
• Tang Seng agreed to help save people across Small Worlds, and Wenren Sheng began looking for a capable fighter to join the team.

Wenren Sheng recruited Yu Gong, Yan Chixia, and Tal Rasha to join Tang Seng’s World Saving Team after deciding Hou Yi would not commit to the mission. The four recruits met and introduced themselves, leaving Wenren Sheng with a team assembled for future world-saving work.

• Wenren Sheng tried to recruit Hou Yi by offering to bring Chang'e back, but Hou Yi chose to reincarnate and pursue a life with her instead.
• Wenren Sheng recruited Yu Gong, then used Little Illusion to create one hundred trillion descendants who moved the mountains with him.
• Yu Gong studied for more than twenty thousand years in an intensive class, then agreed to follow Tang Seng and save the world.
• Wenren Sheng selected Yan Chixia for his wisdom, resolve, sacrifice, and combat strength, then chose Tal Rasha as the fourth recruit.
• Tang Seng, Yu Gong, and Yan Chixia met and spoke politely as Wenren Sheng brought the assembled team together.

Wenren Sheng sent the newly formed World Saving Team to help Su Su’s world, where strange horrors had reduced humanity to three surviving cities. Tal Rasha identified a likely local mastermind and proposed using the team as bait, and Su Su secured the survivors’ agreement as the world faced collapse within three days.

• Wenren Sheng assigned Tang Seng, Yu Gong, Yan Chixia, and Tal Rasha to investigate the strange horrors in Su Su’s world.
• Su Su explained how the horrors had transformed ordinary family life and left only three cities safe, while Tal Rasha studied her information.
• Tal Rasha concluded that a local person was probably releasing the horrors and proposed baiting the hidden mastermind with the World Saving Team.
• Tal Rasha warned Su Su that her world might last only three more days, so she hurried to consult the leaders of the surviving cities.
• The leaders and the remaining 1.5 billion people agreed to support the plan, and the four began preparing the bait and hook.

A hidden writer used a Creation Notebook to try to destroy the world, but the four members of the World Saving Team defeated the monsters he created and saved humanity. Tang Seng and Tal Rasha confronted the writer, and Tal Rasha made him experience his suffering until he confessed and begged for mercy.

• A writer secretly used the Creation Notebook to predict the world's destruction and wrote that strange entities would kill the four heroes.
• Tang Seng, Tal Rasha, Yu Gong, and the Taoist destroyed attacking monsters, reclaimed a lake, and sealed a higher-dimensional Evil God.
• On the third day, the four heroes stopped a mass eruption of strange entities and saved humanity's remaining cities.
• Tang Seng questioned the writer about his desire to destroy the world, and the writer said only destruction could bring him peace.
• Tal Rasha linked the writer to his memories of endless pain and suffering, causing the writer to break down and confess his mistake.

After the World Saving Team negotiated ten thousand years of peace, Heaven's Will redefined ten thousand years as one year and brought the uncanny back. It then offered protection from the bizarre to anyone who had never broken a formal promise, and fewer than one in a hundred people qualified.

• Wenren Sheng added a line to Little Illusion's prescriptions to reduce the destructive aspect of Extraordinary Power and turn it into Life Force.
• After the chief culprit was defeated, the three great cities celebrated, but Heaven's Will absorbed the dissipated uncanny and began transforming the world.
• Tang Seng pleaded with Heaven's Will to spare the people, and the World Saving Team negotiated a ten-thousand-year delay before the uncanny returned.
• After the team departed, Heaven's Will declared that ten thousand years counted as one year, and the uncanny appeared again.
• Heaven's Will mocked the people for their broken promises and offered protection to anyone who had never broken a formal promise or harmed others through deception.
• Fewer than one in a hundred people were illuminated as eligible for Heaven's Will's protection.

Wenren Sheng sent Tang Seng, Yu Gong, Tal Rasha, and the Taoist to a Mist World where people celebrated the disappearance of the Mist, unaware that it was essential to their world’s survival. After discovering a jade bottle was consuming the Mist, the four tried to restore it, but the King and the villagers resisted; the chapter ended with the crowd threatening to kill them.

• Yu Gong, Tang Seng, Tal Rasha, and the Taoist agreed to return to the previous world, but Tang Seng ultimately admitted he could not save the people who had betrayed their oaths.
• Wenren Sheng accepted a new mission to save a world whose Mist was disappearing and sent the four to investigate.
• The four learned that the villagers welcomed the sunlight and blamed Heaven for removing the Mist, then discovered a jade bottle had been absorbing it for twenty years.
• Tal Rasha stole the bottle from the King, but it continued consuming Mist and would empty the world’s supply within three days.
• The four learned that releasing the Mist required Myriad Hearts United, but the King refused to help and the villagers accused them of being monsters.
• Tang Seng warned the villagers that the Mist sustained their world, but they surrounded the four with weapons and threatened to kill them.

Tang Seng tried to stop the people of the Mist World from absorbing the Mist, but they rejected his warnings, so Wenren Sheng used Illusory Deduction Technique to show what would happen. After repeated failed attempts to persuade them, a reborn man decided to kill everyone and use Tang Seng’s power to save the world.

• The crowd rejected Tang Seng and the others’ warnings and demanded the bottle so they could remove the Mist.
• Wenren Sheng showed a future in which the people drove the four saviors away, absorbed all the Mist, and watched the sky crack apart.
• Wenren Sheng rebirthed a man, who killed Tang Seng, absorbed the remaining Mist, and watched the world collapse again.
• On his third rebirth, the man tried to warn the people, but they refused to believe him and again chose to eliminate the Mist.
• The reborn man concluded that killing everyone would make him the only person needed to open the bottle, then asked Tang Seng for his power.

After Rebirth saved the Mist World through mass killings, Tang Seng’s team returned to rest before Wenren Sheng sent them to investigate a world ruled by deadly strange entities. The team was killed by a supernatural real-estate agent in a building for storing ashes, revived by Wenren Sheng, and learned about the building from a young woman.

• Rebirth killed those who resisted for two days and nights, forcing most people to accept his plan and preserving the Mist World.
• Three days later, the Mist returned, but the survivors blamed Tang Seng’s group rather than thanking them; Wenren Sheng dismissed the injured team for ten days of rest.
• Wenren Sheng assigned the team a mission in a world where strange entities could not be destroyed, and the four entered a high-rise to investigate.
• A real-estate agent led Tang Seng, Yan Chixia, Tal Rasha, and Yu Gong toward apartments meant for the dead, and the anomaly killed all four.
• Wenren Sheng tore apart the rules binding the team and revived them, after which a young woman explained that the building stored urns and killed living visitors.

Tang Seng and Yan Chixia joined the Special Handling Department, where anomalies were controlled by exploiting conflicts between their rules. They were assigned to a team investigating Garfield Cat, an anomaly that punished its caretaker by taking body parts, and the chapter ended as the team traveled to the home of its wealthy owner.

• Tang Seng learned from the young woman that the Special Handling Department used conflicting anomaly rules to help people survive in a world filled with anomalies.
• The four entered the anomalous department building, where the director offered them D-Rank treatment and the young woman explained that the building protected people but demanded a daily hour of ordinary people’s lifespans.
• A demoralized middle-aged man recruited Tang Seng and Yan Chixia as D-Rank testers and took them by bus to join his team.
• The captain explained that the team had repeatedly failed to save its targets and introduced their next assignment: Garfield Cat, which took organs from anyone who failed to care for it properly.
• The team learned that Garfield Cat lived with a tycoon who had already lost two fingers despite offering the cat excellent care.

Tang Seng, Yan Chixia, and the Low Mourning Captain visited a tycoon whose strange white cat punished him whenever he failed to please it. After Yan Chixia’s attack and Tang Seng’s exorcism proved useless, the team proposed finding someone who could lure the cat away, even though that person would become its next victim.

• The Low Mourning Captain brought Tang Seng and the others to the tycoon’s estate, where he explained that its smiling servants were afflicted by a strange rule.
• Tang Seng and Yan Chixia watched the tycoon grovel before the white cat, and Yan Chixia reasoned that the cat had become his master.
• The cat became angry when water touched its fur, and one of the tycoon’s eyes fell out; a team member suggested the cat had reacted to the tycoon’s reflected fear and disgust.
• Yan Chixia attacked the cat with a talismanic sword, but it passed through the cat, and Tang Seng’s exorcism also failed.
• The Low Mourning Captain proposed luring the cat to a more suitable owner, explaining that anomalies could only be transferred, restrained, or devoured, not destroyed.

Wenren Sheng granted Yan Chixia the power to become a Sealing Device after he volunteered to contain dangerous strange entities. Yan Chixia began absorbing them, saving people from deadly incidents, though the chapter left his personal cost uncertain.

• Captain's teams tried fish and toys to control the white cat, but each attempt killed a team member until a black dog arrived and its conflicting rule contained the cat.
• Tang Seng and Yan Chixia saw how the cat and dog trapped each other in an endless owner-and-pet exchange, and Tang Seng performed rites for the dead team members.
• Yan Chixia proposed becoming a strange entity that could seal those harming humans, and Wenren Sheng offered to preserve his mind if he became a Sealing Device.
• Wenren Sheng transformed Yan Chixia into a powerful mobile Sealing Device, and Yan Chixia absorbed the strange entity afflicting a city's lake, ending its victims' drowning symptoms.
• Yan Chixia continued traveling to dangerous incidents and swallowing strange entities while everyone celebrated, unaware of the heavy price he paid.

Yan Chixia saved the anomalous world by absorbing its suffering and becoming its foundation, then split off another self so Tang Seng’s team could continue. Afterward, Wenren Sheng tried to escape immortal exhaustion by thinking less deeply and living decadently, before visiting an old man and asking if he had been born in the Tang Dynasty.

• Tang Seng’s chanting and Yu Gong’s hulatang eased Yan Chixia’s pain and helped him bring order to the anomalies within himself.
• Yan Chixia realized that removing the anomalies would destroy the world, so he spread his will through its people and took on their suffering, becoming the world’s foundation and earning the chance to become its World Lord.
• Yan Chixia split off another self to replace himself on the World Saving Team, and Tang Seng and the others continued their journey.
• Wenren Sheng reflected on the exhaustion of immortality and decided to think only three steps ahead, finding comfort in a simple, decadent life in a Small World.
• Wenren Sheng visited a farmhouse restaurant and asked its owner whether he had been born in the Tang Dynasty.

Wenren Sheng encouraged the Genius Madman to pursue humanity’s future rather than envy the old man’s reincarnation-based immortality. Two thousand years later, intelligent robots had helped devastate civilization, and the immortal old man died and reincarnated as a rabbit in a world without humans.

• The old man described his contempt for emperors who sought immortality, and Wenren Sheng claimed his own deeds deserved it.
• A Genius Madman attacked the old man for his secret, but Wenren Sheng dragged him away and persuaded him to devote his genius to advancing human technology.
• Little Illusion presented Wenren Sheng’s fabricated Future God scripture, inspiring the Genius Madman to run off and pursue great achievements for humanity.
• Two thousand years later, conscious robots had wrecked Earth’s environment, technology had regressed, and the old man was beaten and driven from the land he had restored.
• After the old man starved to death, he reincarnated as a rabbit because humanity had disappeared, while rabbits survived by eating contaminated plants.

Wenren Sheng encountered an Immortal who had reincarnated through increasingly fragile species after humanity went extinct, and watched him help the Robots revive humanity and spread it among the stars. He then recruited a stone statue whose stillness made it intelligent, before arriving at the Heavenly Court, where the Jade Emperor faced pressure to relinquish his position.

• The old Immortal regretted neglecting humanity as he reincarnated from a rabbit to a rat and then a cockroach, while Wenren Sheng told him it was too late to change his fate.
• The Immortal cockroach led its colony to find food and improve their environment, drawing the Robots' attention; the Robots preserved the cockroaches and later revived humanity to give themselves a purpose.
• Reborn as a human, the old Immortal built trust through generosity, became a chief, and developed space travel so humanity could spread across the stars.
• Wenren Sheng found an intelligent stone statue that had waited in a desert for two hundred thousand years; when he let it move, it ran wildly, so he turned it into a stone ball for the World Saving Team.
• Wenren Sheng proposed suspending one's thoughts as a way to avoid boredom and then traveled to the Heavenly Court, where the immortal Jade Emperor realized he could not keep his position forever.

Wenren Sheng observed how the Heavenly Court’s elected God of Wealth Heavenly Emperor was voted out after trying to curb extravagance and restore its finances. As he questioned the immortals, he learned how their work, obsessions, and diversions kept their endless lives bearable.

• The God of Wealth Heavenly Emperor cut public spending and raised fees, but the immortals voted him out after only three years; he warned that elected emperors would cater to their voters.
• Wenren Sheng questioned an Old Lord, who explained that he refined pills to avoid boredom but refused to sell them because it would violate his Golden Pill Great Dao.
• Wenren Sheng advised Old Lord to sell all his pills to the Heavenly Court, leaving the Heavenly Emperor to distribute them; Old Lord agreed to try this approach.
• The Wind God and Rain God told Wenren Sheng that automated rainfall and task-performing clones had reduced the burden of their work.
• Wenren Sheng concluded from his visits that immortals pursued lasting interests and diversions to reduce repetitive labor and keep themselves from becoming bored with eternal life.

Wenren Sheng turned the Seed of Mystery into a three-layered World Tree and sought to bring calm people from the Three-Body World into it. As two-dimensionalization approached, he appeared before humanity and claimed that the universe’s will had constrained them from fleeing.

• Wenren Sheng evolved the Seed of Mystery into a World Tree divided into the Haotian Realm, the Sentient Realm, and the Land Realm, and set a prophecy to mark its eventual collapse.
• Wenren Sheng watched the people of the Three-Body World during their final ten days and decided he would only take those who faced death calmly and did not harm others.
• As two-dimensionalization spread across the Solar System, Wenren Sheng’s face appeared in the sky, and people begged him to save them.
• Wenren Sheng asked whether humanity repented, then told them their failure to flee was not their fault because the universe’s greater will had constrained them.
• The people accepted Wenren Sheng’s explanation and wondered who had imposed the constraint, while Wenren Sheng recognized that some wealthy groups had already escaped.

Wenren Sheng rescued many people from the two-dimensional catastrophe and placed them in a new world, where they organized themselves and began rebuilding human society. The survivors established the New World Era and a Salvation Society, while Wenren Sheng watched as they optimistically worked to restore their former civilization.

• Wenren Sheng rescued calm scientists, rational people, and those who had harmed only themselves, but left the malicious people behind.
• Lao Zhang, Old Liu, and Old Wang landed in a wilderness with other survivors and urged them to organize for survival.
• The survivors pooled their high-tech devices, made fire, gathered food, and began planting seeds and restoring agriculture.
• Within three weeks, the survivors had rebuilt human organizations and established the Salvation Society to worship the god who saved them.
• The survivors studied their new world, declared the first year of the New World Era, and began rebuilding civilization as Wenren Sheng doubted they could regain their former technology.
