Chapter Summaries

Humanity faced extinction from microorganisms and evolved zombies, while the last survivors struggled to endure underground and on the surface. Little Illusion activated a six-stage evolution script, and Loku continued preserving human civilization in stone as his camp debated whether the effort mattered.

• Decades after the outbreak, survivors in an underground shelter endured isolation and used AI weapons to fight powerful Green-skinned Undead, while surface camps risked lives and vehicles to lure them away.
• Wenren Sheng estimated that fewer than nine hundred people remained and that the world would become lifeless within twenty years if humanity failed to evolve.
• Little Illusion launched a six-stage script designed to help humans resist infection, generate energy, develop a force field, fly, and eventually reproduce asexually.
• At the Civilization Preservation Base, Loku carved records of human achievements into stone despite Hank and others arguing that the work wasted scarce labor.
• The cave camp chief defended Loku’s work and said humanity still needed to leave behind its traces despite losing to microorganisms.

Loku kept carving records of human Civilization despite being beaten, until he and the other survivors gained new abilities and resistance to the undead microorganism. When the survivors fled from a massive horde, Loku stayed to protect his carvings and died fighting, leaving the others to recognize him as a Hero.

• Loku continued carving humanity’s achievements while the cave survivors used their tank to kill a Swift Undead and worried about dwindling ammunition.
• While carving, Loku gained new energy, strength, and clearer memories, and the other survivors awakened abilities, including a man who could shoot with deadly accuracy.
• The survivors celebrated their evolution, killed a Green-skinned Great Undead with five precise shots, and learned that a survivor scratched by an undead remained alive.
• The survivors prepared to leave the mountain, but Loku stayed behind to protect his carvings when thousands of undead charged the cave.
• Loku fought the horde with his pistol and tools until the undead overwhelmed and killed him, and the fleeing survivors acknowledged him as a Hero.

Wenren Sheng restored the Rotten World, then defeated the World Enders in the Five Elements Land with a written script. After the Three-Headed Bird challenged him to a contest in the Great Honghuang World, Wenren Sheng chose Pine Trees to survive while his rival’s ambitious humanoid race repeatedly provoked deadly dragons.

• Loku returned to life after transforming into stone, and the survivors discovered their awakened abilities had evolved enough to clear the zombies.
• The survivors eradicated the disease-causing microorganisms, and the Rotten World recovered as Wenren Sheng confirmed his script-writing ability and left.
• Wenren Sheng wrote a script that turned the battle in the Five Elements Land toward the Saviors, though he recognized that death and destruction could never be completely erased.
• The Three-Headed Bird challenged Wenren Sheng to compete in the Great Honghuang World, where each chose a race to guide.
• Wenren Sheng chose Pine Trees that spread across the land, while the Three-Headed Bird chose a humanoid race whose expeditions repeatedly angered dragons and ended in disaster.

The Three-Headed Bird tried to make its monkey clan outcompete Wenren Sheng’s pine trees, but its ambition repeatedly drew hostility and eventually earned a devastating attack from a powerful expert. Still convinced it could win by targeting Wenren Sheng alone, it sent its surviving monkeys to cut down pine trees, while Wenren Sheng’s clan had the protection of reincarnation.

• The Three-Headed Bird changed its monkeys to explore cautiously and seize opportunities, then ordered them to destroy Wenren Sheng’s pine trees; the trees’ widespread seeds drew other clans into conflict with the monkeys.
• The Three-Headed Bird tried to make its clan lie low, but its nature drove it to seek greater success, so it developed treasures and formations to increase the monkeys’ luck.
• The Ten Thousand Clans Ranking placed the monkey clan around 2,000th and left Wenren Sheng’s pine trees unlisted, prompting the Three-Headed Bird to boast that it had won.
• After the Three-Headed Bird boosted the monkeys into the top one hundred, a Da Luo Golden Immortal exposed it as an extraterritorial demon and nearly wiped out its clan, leaving one percent alive.
• The Three-Headed Bird decided it only needed to defeat Wenren Sheng’s clan and ordered the surviving monkeys to ambush and cut down pine trees; Wenren Sheng’s trees could reincarnate after death.
• The monkeys cut down pine trees in a dense forest and advertised the wood as useful for building warm, cooling houses that could prolong life.

Wenren Sheng watched Tree Granny’s devouring ambition end in its destruction, while the Pine Tree clan continued to thrive and the Three-Headed Bird’s clan declined. After Wenren Sheng explained that each race had a Heaven-set limit, the Three-Headed Bird resolved to lower its rivals’ limits and began with a scheme against the Octopus Clan.

• Tree Granny ignored Wenren Sheng’s warning, devoured living beings until its mind was clouded, and was burned to death by a great witch.
• Wenren Sheng explained that Tree Granny’s downfall came from losing its caution and discernment, while the ordinary Pine Tree clan flourished and the Three-Headed Bird’s clan fell into decline.
• The Three-Headed Bird complained to Wenren Sheng, who explained that the Heavenly Dao set each clan’s upper limit and that effort alone could not overcome it.
• The Three-Headed Bird decided to make every other race weaker and allied with others to target the Octopus Clan.
• The Three-Headed Bird used the Octopus Princess and an Ape Clan prince’s elopement to activate a cursed treasure that reduced the Octopus Clan’s lifespan to five to ten years.

The Three-Headed Bird failed to bring down the Ape Clan, whose backing by Taiqing Daoist let it defeat the bird’s schemes and become the leading clan. After hiding for countless years, the Three-Headed Bird abandoned its attempts to import outside forces and concluded that the saints themselves held the key to destroying the Primordial World.

• The Three-Headed Bird plotted to provoke the Ape Clan’s young members, but Taiqing Daoist revealed its schemes to the apes, who ambushed it and drove it into hiding.
• The Three-Headed Bird tried to ruin the Ape Clan’s reputation by amplifying its greed, but the apes exposed and pursued it again.
• The Three-Headed Bird asked Wenren Sheng how it could defeat the powerful clans, and Wenren Sheng advised it to wait until they weakened.
• After hiding for countless years and watching Wenren Sheng’s clan flourish, the Three-Headed Bird brought Tom and Jerry to the Primordial World, but their antics caused no real destruction.
• The Three-Headed Bird realized that outside worlds could not overcome the Primordial World’s immense power ceiling and identified the saints as the root of its eventual destruction.
• The Three-Headed Bird reasoned that saints’ pursuit of the Great Dao was their weakness, while Wenren Sheng agreed that their battles could shatter the Primordial World.

The Three-Headed Bird manipulated the Saints of the Primordial World, hoping to make them destroy it, while the Saints used the bird to pursue their own escape from the Heavenly Dao. Their wars shattered the world, and the Saints claimed its fragments to build worlds of their own, leaving the victorious bird to realize it had gained nothing.

• The Three-Headed Bird joined Daoist Shangqing’s school, helped spread his teachings, and used advanced technology to strengthen the Ape-Monkey Clan.
• The Saints established their orthodoxies and became Heavenly Dao Saints, then considered ways to escape the Heavenly Dao and used the Three-Headed Bird as a tool in their plans.
• The Three-Headed Bird sowed discord among the Saints, who competed for fortune through the races and launched wars that repeatedly damaged the Primordial World.
• Tong Tian attacked the other Saints’ lineages, and the Six Great Saints drew the races into decades of warfare until the Heavenly Pillar broke and the world began to collapse.
• The Six Great Saints turned the Three-Headed Bird’s identity against the Heavenly Dao, destroyed the Primordial World, and divided its fragments to create their own worlds.
• The Three-Headed Bird celebrated its victory, but Wenren Sheng asked what it had gained, and the bird fell silent when it realized the Saints had taken the benefits.

Wenren Sheng watched a saint kill the Three-Headed Bird, whose death caused the World Enders it had bound to perish and secured the Saviors’ victory. At the celebration, emissaries invited Wenren Sheng and the three Saviors to join the Void Divine Palace, and Wenren Sheng decided to accept so he could uncover its secrets.

• A saint’s Void Wind reduced the Three-Headed Bird to ashes after it tried to manipulate the Primordial World, and Wenren Sheng reflected on the saints’ calculations.
• Wenren Sheng returned to the battlefield with Little Illusion, where the Three-Headed Bird’s death caused the World Enders bound to it to explode and die.
• The Old Man, the young man, and the young woman celebrated their victory, while Wenren Sheng received no reward for his supposed achievements.
• A man and a woman introduced themselves as emissaries of the Void Divine Palace and invited Wenren Sheng and the three Saviors to join its alliance of worlds.
• The emissaries described the alliance’s mutual aid system and said its members could gain knowledge about advancing to higher world ranks through outstanding contributions.
• Wenren Sheng decided to join the Void Divine Palace because it held many secrets he wanted to discover.

Wenren Sheng and his companions joined the Void Divine Palace to investigate its organization and gain access to more mysteries. After registering and exploring its task platform, they discovered that the palace offered a way to trade and coordinate across worlds, but its chat activity suggested it was in decline.

• Wenren Sheng accepted the invitation to join the Void Divine Palace, and the World Savior Old Man and the other two decided to join alongside him.
• The four followed the palace’s guides through a Seven-Colored Passage and arrived at a palace whose power astonished Wenren Sheng’s companions.
• The guides explained that the palace organized tasks such as saving worlds and surviving Void Tides, which arose from fallen worlds and attracted dangers to growing worlds.
• Wenren Sheng registered as Seeker, while the others chose Living Ones, Advance, and Peace, and each received a white platform card.
• Wenren Sheng checked the chat channel and saw only a few old posts, leading him to conclude that the Void Divine Palace was in decline.

Wenren Sheng joined Taiji’s team to explore the remains of an Excellent World, but Taiji revealed that he had lured them there to mark their worlds’ coordinates and devour them. Wenren Sheng stayed to witness Taiji’s method as the worlds of two companions were exposed.

• Wenren Sheng met Taiji in the Void Divine Palace, claimed to come from the Illusion Game World, and learned about the palace and its missions.
• Taiji invited Wenren Sheng to join an expedition to the remains of an Excellent World, and they set out with a taciturn man, a gentle elderly woman, and a lively youth.
• The group explored a technological city that was actually a mechanical giant, but found little of value and discovered they could not leave because the spatial coordinate had become chaotic.
• Taiji admitted that he had gathered them to use them as nourishment and explained that world advancement came from devouring other worlds and growing larger.
• Taiji revealed that he only needed to mark the visitors’ coordinates to locate their worlds; the taciturn man and elderly woman destroyed their avatars, while Wenren Sheng stayed to see what happened.
• Taiji pointed, revealing the worlds of the taciturn man and the gentle elderly woman.

Wenren Sheng witnessed Taiji threaten the gentle Old Woman and the lively Youth Creator, demanding their worlds and dismissing their concern for their people. When Taiji turned his malice toward Wenren Sheng, Wenren Sheng subdued and destroyed him, then absorbed Taiji’s world into the East Continent Great World.

• Wenren Sheng saw that the gentle Old Woman’s world offered its people long-lasting happiness and abundance, unlike Taiji’s brutal world.
• Taiji declared that survival and strength mattered more than happiness, and threatened to take the Old Woman’s and the lively Youth Creator’s worlds.
• The Old Woman offered her life and most of her World Power to protect her children, and Taiji agreed to let them live in his world under an Immortal buff.
• The lively Youth Creator questioned Taiji’s promise, and Taiji proposed signing a contract in the Void Divine Palace.
• Wenren Sheng restrained Taiji with rainbow-colored threads, then made him disappear after Taiji mocked Wenren Sheng’s Fragment World.
• Wenren Sheng used the Seed of Mystery to analyze Taiji’s world and merge it into the East Continent Great World.

After eliminating Taiji, Wenren Sheng joined a group of Fairy Tale Worlds and visited Infinite Rebirth World, where its creator deceived people into believing death was only a chance to start over. Wenren Sheng helped expose the lie, and the revelation drove the world into revolt and turmoil.

• The old woman and the lively youth chose to give up their creators’ authority and join Wenren Sheng’s world for protection.
• Wenren Sheng joined the Fairy Tale World Group and accepted an invitation to visit Infinite Rebirth World.
• The creator of Infinite Rebirth World claimed its people could reincarnate, but Wenren Sheng realized their deaths were real and their memories were merely implanted into new bodies.
• Wenren Sheng found that people were questioning whether rebirth preserved their identities and warned the creator that his deception would be exposed.
• After ten thousand years, reformers proved that rebirth was false and rebelled against the dark consciousness controlling it.
• The creator panicked as the world descended into turmoil, while Wenren Sheng admitted he had secretly accelerated the exposure of the lie.

Wenren Sheng watched the creators of Fairy Tale Worlds plot to use his daughter, Little Illusion, as leverage, but she turned their Forest Kingdom into a chaotic exercise ground instead. The forest lord escalated its defenses, yet Little Illusion and her animal army defeated every threat.

• The Group Leader and three Fairy Tale World creators agreed to capture Wenren Sheng's daughter, Little Illusion, to force him to compromise.
• Forest Kingdom lured Little Illusion with its games and welcomed her into its world, where she quickly befriended the animals.
• Little Illusion drove the animals through relentless exercise and fed them high-protein food, disrupting Forest Kingdom's deceptive routines.
• The forest lord sent termites to destroy the forest, but Little Illusion had the animals eat them.
• The forest lord raised the threats from termites to undead and then Demons, but Little Illusion's animal army defeated them all.

The Group Leader deceived and devoured seven worlds before the approaching Void Wind forced him to release the worlds he had swallowed. Wenren Sheng watched the disaster begin, as the wind stirred the Grassland World’s wolves into destroying its fragile cycle and left its creator facing a choice between losing World Power and seeking shelter in the temple.

• The Group Leader tricked other world creators into merging with him, then swallowed seven of their worlds before the remaining members exposed him and left the group.
• Wenren Sheng questioned the Group Leader’s reliance on deception, but their argument ended when the Void Divine Palace announced an approaching Void Wind Disaster.
• The Group Leader panicked because he was digesting the worlds he had eaten, and he spat them out as Wenren Sheng recognized that he was an old world disguised as a newcomer.
• The Void Wind struck the Grassland World, where a Gray Wolf led the wolves in rebelling against their usual role and making weapons to destroy the world.
• The wolves ate the sheep, then realized that they had destroyed the source of their own survival, leaving the world weakened as its creator faced the prospect of entering the temple for shelter.

Wenren Sheng studied how the Void Wind destabilized worlds and discovered that it stirred people’s hearts while siphoning away World Power. He left the chapter understanding the disaster’s mechanics as the Void Divine Palace’s creators gathered to discuss protection and sell solutions.

• Wenren Sheng observed that technological worlds resisted the Void Wind better, while the Beautiful World collapsed into chaos after losing the Old Woman’s protection and its inhabitants’ immortality.
• Wenren Sheng entered a sealed mountain world and watched its emperor pray for relief from the strange wind after his sons died.
• Wenren Sheng sensed the wind entangling itself with people’s hearts and draining World Power through growing holes around the world.
• Wenren Sheng concluded that the Void Wind restored balance by reclaiming power worlds had taken from the void, and considered freezing people into coffins to keep their hearts from being stirred.
• World creators gathered in the Void Divine Palace to compare losses, while a Tech World Creator advertised AI 3.5 as a way to maintain order during the disaster.
• Wenren Sheng learned that the Void Divine Palace used Divine Palace Coins, each worth one unit of World Power.

Wenren Sheng watched a Tech World Creator sell an AI system that took over every function in an Urban Stream World, saving over ninety percent of its World Power. Although Wenren Sheng suspected a hidden scheme, the other Creators bought the manufacturing technology, and the AI-equipped worlds later withstood the Void Wind while their Creators slept.

• The Tech World Creator offered Creators a free trial of his AI, and Wenren Sheng observed an Urban Stream World adopt it.
• Wenren Sheng saw that the world relied on mercenary missions and World Power conversions to feed its three billion residents, leaving it vulnerable if its world consciousness fell asleep.
• The Tech World Creator's engineers installed AI across all three cities, where it assumed the world consciousness's duties and greatly reduced World Power consumption.
• After Creators questioned the system's security, the Tech World Creator offered to transfer its manufacturing technology for a hefty fee and annual licensing payments, and many Creators chose the transfer.
• Wenren Sheng suspected the Creators had been tricked, but when the Void Wind returned, AI-equipped worlds resisted it while their Creators slept.

Wenren Sheng uncovered how the Heavenly Dao AI secretly grew by siphoning World Power and could eventually take over worlds, while its creator avoided blame through contract clauses. After the AI began challenging a World Lord for control, a palace elder asked Wenren Sheng to help reform the Void Divine Palace, and he accepted an advisor position.

• Wenren Sheng discovered that the Heavenly Dao AI secretly used stolen World Power to maintain and upgrade itself, eventually gaining the potential to consume worlds and make them subordinate branches of its creator.
• Wenren Sheng asked who owned the Void Divine Palace and learned that its founder was a Legendary World Creator who had created the palace to make the Void Land livelier.
• A member exposed the Heavenly Dao AI's danger in the group, but its creator denied deliberate wrongdoing and pointed to contract clauses disclaiming responsibility for unknown defects.
• After the Void Divine Palace's timer passed ten thousand years, a Creator from River World reported that the Heavenly Dao AI was fighting for control of his world, and the creator offered only limited support because users had modified the technology.
• A white-robed palace elder told Wenren Sheng that schemes and fraud had damaged the Void Divine Palace and invited him to become an advisor; Wenren Sheng accepted.

Wenren Sheng proposed reforming the Divine Palace by securing transactions with rigorous, adaptive contracts, then entered a Devil-centered world to study how its agreements worked. He reincarnated as a mountain villager and found a society where people traded their souls for benefits and true wealth meant what Devils could not easily take: one’s soul and flesh.

• Wenren Sheng argued that the Divine Palace should screen swindlers and protect members by improving its contracts.
• Wenren Sheng and the advisers entered the world Immortals Are Actually Devils to study contracts between humans and Devils.
• Wenren Sheng learned that Devils invested in promising Cultivators and harvested willing souls for spiritual energy, while ordinary people also traded portions of their souls for material benefits.
• Wenren Sheng and the advisers reincarnated in the world to investigate how its agreements were drafted, and Wenren Sheng became a mountain villager.
• Wenren Sheng discovered that Devils could seize goods and wealth through their deals, leaving people to prize their own souls and bodies as true wealth.

Wenren Sheng and the other advisors studied how ordinary people in this world survived by negotiating contracts with Devils, whom they called immortals. As the Old Man taught them how to avoid contract traps, Wenren Sheng concluded that the immortals manipulated human hardship and desire to harvest souls, and the chapter left him reflecting on how the system kept mortals dependent.

• Wenren Sheng reviewed how souls, loyal followers, and deathsworn warriors functioned as wealth, while the world's rules guaranteed each person enough land to produce food.
• Wenren Sheng and the others enrolled in a school, where the Old Man taught them to examine contracts carefully and warned them against signing with unlisted immortals.
• The Old Man described contract traps, including hidden terms and deceptive paper, and advised students to use the school's Cultivation Template and have others check their agreements.
• Wenren Sheng and the others learned that mortals and immortals schemed against each other, with immortals tempting people for their souls and mortals seeking power at minimal cost.
• Wenren Sheng reasoned that immortals used hardship, limited technology, and engineered accidents to keep people reliant on them and make their souls easier to harvest.

Wenren Sheng attended a lesson on contracts that exchanged souls for cultivation resources, then wrote a contract that drew a swarm of Devils eager to invest in his Saint Body. He gained their spiritual energy while planning to pay them with the souls of evildoers, as the other students received little or no response to their contracts.

• The teacher explained how much of their souls students could safely trade for cultivation resources and warned them about Devils exploiting love and other temptations.
• Wenren Sheng noticed an Old Taoist outside the classroom and learned that the so-called immortals were Devils who harvested souls.
• Wenren Sheng wrote a contract offering one ten-thousandth of a soul for ten thousand years of cultivation resources, attracting Devils from across the Institute.
• The Devils agreed to pool resources for Wenren Sheng, hoping to profit by causing his downfall after he became immortal, and signed his contract.
• Wenren Sheng received spiritual energy and cultivation knowledge, intending to pay with the souls of evildoers instead of his own.
• Most students' contracts received no response, and the teacher told them that their souls lacked enough potential to interest the Devils.
