Chapter Summaries

After the Anomaly assault, Lu Sheng returned to his routine and used Deep Blue to push the Codex beyond the Ultimate Form, evolving Wind of Coordination into an immeasurable realm. With his God-Entrusting Power exhausted, he turned his attention to the Chaos Heart Core at Moon Capital Base and secretly surveyed Miskatonic University, where three places remained beyond his reach.

• Yi An arrived with guards to check on Lu Sheng and traded insults with A Er Ni before both women left.
• Lu Sheng continued deducing the Codex and reached the Eighth Form, the Ultimate Form, in a sealed cave outside the school.
• Over the next two weeks, Lu Sheng evolved beyond the Ultimate Form twice, developing the Wind Devil God and exhausting his God-Entrusting Power.
• Lu Sheng decided to obtain the Chaos Heart Core at Moon Capital Base to gain more God-Entrusting Power.
• Lu Sheng used Wind Shift to return unseen to the research institute and spread his concealed mental power across Miskatonic University, but three places resisted his perception.

Lu Sheng watched Miskatonic University come under a major Void Demon attack, while Yuse took advantage of the chaos to break into Moonfall Base. The school’s strongest defenders were drawn away, leaving Lu Sheng to face the rampaging creatures as Yuse advanced toward the underground depths.

• Lu Sheng sensed powerful beings at the principal’s office, the library, and deep beneath Moon Capital Base, and wondered why no otherworldly visitors had come to exploit this world’s rapid evolution.
• A Er Ni told Lu Sheng that Dawn’s guard assignments had begun and asked him to cover for her team if needed; Lu Sheng declined an assignment of his own because he wanted the Chaos Heart Core.
• A red sky and a water giant appeared over the school, drawing Maradona into a battle that ended with him and the sky swallowed by a vortex, while Joy Lady entered the Past Library to confront a descending beam.
• Void Demons flooded Miskatonic University, and the prepared staff and students defended the shelters until a blue long-tailed wyvern rampaged through campus and killed a professor.
• Lu Sheng judged that the school had run out of fighting strength and vanished from his dormitory to intervene.
• Yuse entered Moonfall Base, destroyed its guardians and defenses, and continued toward the depths while Maradona and Joy were absent.

Lu Sheng infiltrated Moon Capital Base and encountered its guardian, Dong Bo, who attacked him with supernatural powers. After Dong Bo transformed the battlefield into the Myriad Stars Realm and revealed his connection to the New God faction, Lu Sheng summoned the Wind Devil God to fight at full strength.

• Lu Sheng entered Moon Capital Base through its ventilation system, broke through a living metal passage, and endured the Divine Shadow Gaze.

• Dong Bo transformed the cavern into the Myriad Stars Realm and revealed a monstrous form with power tied to the New God faction.
• Lu Sheng summoned the Wind Devil God and fused with it as the battle began in earnest.

Lu Sheng defeated Dong Bo after a brutal battle but was infected by a strange divine power that prevented him from using Wind Shift. As Yuse raced toward the Chaos Heart Core and the defenders struggled to stop him, Lu Sheng headed there on foot, determined to take the Core and leave.

• Dong Bo and the Wind Devil God fought while the women at Moon Capital Base redirected its guardian divine power to aid Dong Bo and considered advancing the Heart Core Contamination Protection Field.

• Stanvikule organized the students at the Third Defense Line, but Yuse blasted through a wall and vanished toward the Heart Core before they could stop him.
• Lu Sheng defeated Dong Bo with a desperate final strike, but a purple sphere struck his abdomen and planted a strange divine power inside him.
• Lu Sheng rejected activating the grand array, suppressed the invading power, and ran toward the Heart Core after it blocked his attempt to use Wind Shift.

Yuse and Lu Sheng advanced toward the Chaos Heart Core inside Moon Capital Base, each driven by the power it promised. Despite his worsening injuries and the purple hand consuming his strength, Lu Sheng reached the core chamber and rushed toward the enormous flesh ball.

• Yuse phased through the base’s walls toward its core, laughing as he anticipated the power of the Heart Core.
• Lu Sheng blasted through defenses and bone dolls, but the purple hand inside him grew more dangerous as it drained his power.
• Lu Sheng crossed the crimson-light chamber, was struck by its defenses, and continued onward despite his grave injuries.
• Lu Sheng used black triangular devices to bypass patrols and the defenses around the hemispherical structure.
• Lu Sheng entered the innermost chamber, recognized the Chaos Heart Core, and charged toward it.

Lu Sheng discovered that Yuse had stolen the Chaos Heart Core and transformed into a monstrous Ancient God to pursue him. As Void Demons overran Miskatonic University, Maradona and the other survivors prepared to flee through a long-distance teleportation passage.

• Lu Sheng tried to seize the apparent Chaos Heart Core, but the flesh ball burst and Yuse revealed that he had taken the real one.
• Yuse identified himself as Yuse and escaped Moon Capital Base, while Lu Sheng transformed into a towering three-faced monster and confronted him outside.

• Maradona, Professor Wales, and the deans gathered survivors at the First Teaching Building as a vast statue descended toward the university.
• The principal ordered the long-distance teleportation passage activated, and Andy, A Er Ni, Isala, and other survivors waited in line for evacuation.

A newly awakened Old God resembling Jack emerged and froze the surrounding creatures, leaving the survivors facing an even greater threat.

• Andy learned Jack was missing from the group, so he and A Er Ni led the others toward the research institute despite the danger.
• Andy used purple rune chains to conceal the group from a stag-headed monster, and they passed other monsters with help from A Er Ni’s magical staff.
• A gigantic pyramid-like form appeared as the Blood Fat God Lord Lata Sarn, and Andy’s mechanical voice warned him to return within twenty-five minutes.
• Near the institute, the wounded Joy Lady was confronted by an eagle-headed man, who spotted the hidden group and immobilized them with wind and venomous snakes.
• Time froze as dark-red flesh spread out from Moonfall Base, and a towering pillar of flesh revealed a three-faced figure that looked like Jack.

Lu Sheng used the Chaos Heart Core and a formation to release the starving Black Giants from Void Nether's Heart-Image World, unleashing them on the Void Demons attacking the university. As the giants overwhelmed the demons, Lu Sheng confronted Latasen and threatened Yuse while demanding to know which divine power mark belonged to him.

• The research institute erupted with red light, and a Black Giant charged into the Void Demon horde as more giants emerged from formations across the campus.
• The Black Giants devoured the invading demons, while Joy led Kai Duo and the others toward the First Teaching Building and Andy stayed behind to search for Jack; A Er Ni chose to remain with him.
• Lu Sheng absorbed tens of millions of units of God-Entrusting Power through the Chaos Heart Core and released the Heart-Image World's Black Giants into the battle.
• Lu Sheng discovered that the Black Giants had suffered from extreme hunger because time passed differently in the Heart-Image World, and he promised them endless food.
• Latasen demanded the Proof of the Overlord and the Chaos Heart Core, and Lu Sheng threatened to kill Yuse unless he identified which of his thirteen divine power marks belonged to Latasen.

• Varian revealed that Lu Sheng had been hiding behind the identity of Jack, and Lu Sheng destroyed the Void Demons lurking behind Andy and A Er Ni.
• Lu Sheng rejected Varian’s invitation to join the void and tore apart his body, but Varian’s voice continued from the fragments as a purple beam summoned his true form, a colossal whale.
• Lu Sheng called forth a giant black crane to attack Varian’s whale, then moved into space as the two monsters battled.
• More evil gods emerged from ripples in the void and demanded the Heart Core from Lu Sheng, who refused and charged into their ranks.
• Lu Sheng fought the evil gods with Black Blade, cutting down more than ten of them while their attacks struggled to overcome his speed and defenses.

Lu Sheng slaughtered the Evil Gods before facing Hill, the God of Records, who overwhelmed him and destroyed his body. He re-formed from purple dust, declared that the world was accepting him, and struck back at Hill.

• Lu Sheng confined and cut down the Evil Gods, while their leader, Hill, appeared and demanded the Heart Core.
• Hill attacked Lu Sheng, battered him into a small planet, and declared that she would record his death as she split his body into six pieces.

• Lu Sheng re-formed from his ashes and struck Hill in the side before she could react.

In the summer of 1877, he opened the Devil’s Gate, brought hundreds of thousands of Black Giants to Earth, and began preparing a new incarnation with Jack’s memories.

• Lu Sheng descended on the school with a giant sphere of flesh, reassured its leaders that their agreement remained valid, and said his purpose there had been fulfilled.
