Chapter Summaries

Kare introduced Heaven City to the survivors of Cole Island and urged them to relocate, but Alpha insisted on inspecting it first. After the Tentacle Monster died, Kare discovered Karin’s corpse and attacked the Half-Face Mask, who overpowered him and revealed an interest in finding the Main World.

• Kare told Alpha and the survivors about Heaven City and offered to take them there on transport planes.
• Alpha declined to approve an immediate relocation and proposed taking representatives to inspect Heaven City first.
• A tentacle appeared in the sea, then the Tentacle Monster fought something, died, and began to dissipate.
• Kare flew to the monster and found Karin’s corpse floating in the water.
• Kare attacked the Half-Face Mask, who caught his beak, broke it, and identified his strength as below the Peak.
• Kare asked if the Half-Face Mask came from the Main World, and the Masked Man said he had finally found it.

Luo Jun finally found the Hell Creek Family’s underground outpost in the [Wasteland], but Kare betrayed him after leading him into a cavern filled with a sleeping monster. The chapter ended as a gigantic heartbeat shook the cavern and Kare revealed that Luo Jun would face a Sixth-Order Mutant.

• Luo Jun killed Karin by mistake, then spared Kare after recognizing him as a Main World cultivator connected to the Hell Creek Family.
• Kare contacted Elder Caroline, who agreed to meet Luo Jun, and led him toward Heaven City.
• Kare showed Luo Jun that the Gate and Heaven City lay beneath the ruins of an abandoned city.
• Kare led Luo Jun into a deep cavern, where he suddenly attacked the surrounding tunnels with lightning and awakened a powerful creature.
• Kare revealed that he blamed Luo Jun for Karin’s death and declared that Luo Jun would face a Sixth-Order Mutant.

Luo Jun confronted the Sixth-Order Mutant after Kare and Karin were killed, then fought his way through its vast mass of tendrils. He escaped the underground trap by summoning one hundred million Fire Elemental Little Elves, revealing the mutant’s enormous eyeball form in the air above the ruined city.

• Kare and Karin were torn apart and devoured by tendrils, sealing Luo Jun inside the underground space.
• Luo Jun cut through the mutant’s tendrils as they attacked from the surrounding walls, then exposed the vast fleshy body behind them.
• Luo Jun used the Blazing Sun Penetrating Kill Cannon to strike the tendrils sealing the way out, but more tendrils quickly filled the opening.
• Luo Jun summoned one hundred million Fire Elemental Little Elves, whose simultaneous explosions burned away the tendrils surrounding him.
• Luo Jun emerged above a vast pit where the city had stood and revealed the Sixth-Order Mutant as a gigantic eyeball with a golden pupil and branching tendrils.

Luo Jun fought a giant eyeball whose Mental Shock and teleporting made it difficult to attack, but his Black Fire helped force it to reveal its true form: a colossal monster beginning to grow a humanlike body. The newly awakened monster roared Luo Jun away, while a Crystal Ball in Heaven City turned steadily red, signaling that the dangerous being had awakened and was gathering power.

• The giant eyeball repeatedly attacked Luo Jun with Mental Shock and blinked across the battlefield, so Luo Jun used the Trace to the Source Skill Card to teleport behind it and set it ablaze with Black Fire.
• As the Black Fire burned the eyeball, its spiritual screams grew stronger, and a heartbeat sounded as translucent tissue formed eyelids and a gigantic head around it.
• Luo Jun charged the forming monster, but it roared and blasted him away with a sound wave that flattened buildings, trees, roads, and mountains below.
• In Heaven City, Melina reported the Crystal Ball's red flashes to Elder Caroline, who explained that red meant the dangerous being had awakened and ordered the news sent to the Clan Leader.
• The Crystal Ball stopped flashing and shone a constant, brilliant red.

Old Rex and Caroline raced to the awakened Divine Remains, which was rampaging across the [Wasteland] without an apparent target. They prepared to suppress it, but the cause of its awakening remained unknown.

• Caroline reported the monitoring crystal’s extreme fluctuations, and Old Rex went with her to investigate the Divine Remains.
• Old Rex explained how the Hell Creek Family had built Heaven City underground after discovering the gate to [Wasteland].
• Old Rex told Caroline that he needed seven seconds to fire a sedative shot, while she would have to distract the Divine Remains.
• Flying toward the disturbance, Old Rex and Caroline saw zombies and mutants marching together and found a vast barren area marked by the Divine Remains’ movements.
• They saw the five-thousand-meter-tall Divine Remains rampaging without a visible opponent, then Old Rex told Caroline to circle around and wait for his signal.

Old Rex used Heavenly Manifestation to become a five-thousand-meter Giant and wield the giant Ruyi Suixin Gun against the awakened Divine Remains. As he prepared to fire an Active Inhibitor, Caroline distracted the creature, but it sensed her even after she shrank into a bird.

• Caroline circled behind the rampaging Divine Remains while Old Rex transformed into a Giant thousands of meters tall with Heavenly Manifestation.
• Old Rex drew the Ruyi Suixin Gun, which grew to match his enormous size, and prepared to fire an Active Inhibitor at the Divine Remains.
• The Divine Remains roared at Old Rex, but Caroline transformed into a dragon and struck its jaw, disrupting its attack and buying him time to aim.
• The Divine Remains abandoned its attack on Old Rex and reached for Caroline, who shrank into a bird and slipped between its fingers.
• A Divine Sense locked onto Caroline as she tried to fly away in bird form.

Luo Jun helped Caroline and Old Rex stop the Divine Remains by redirecting Rex’s giant syringe into it, then questioned Rex about the remains and the Eternal Star. Rex revealed that the remains belonged to the Eternal God Aidenval and realized Luo Jun might know who stole the Eternal Star.

• The Divine Remains destroyed Caroline’s dragon form, but she bound it briefly with the Immortal Binding Rope while Old Rex prepared his shot.
• Old Rex fired an enormous syringe at the Divine Remains, but it dodged; Night emerged from its back, stopped the syringe, and drove it into the creature.
• The injected medicine caused the Divine Remains to dissolve into tendrils that burrowed underground, ending the immediate crisis.
• Luo Jun confronted the exhausted Old Rex, who identified the remains as Aidenval’s complete Divine Remains and explained that it would eventually revive.
• Old Rex explained that the Eternal Star recorded the secret of Aidenval’s undying flesh and that the Eternal Heart was created by extracting that ability.
• Luo Jun asked why someone would steal the Eternal Star, and Old Rex concluded the thief might seek to evolve beyond humanity before asking whether Luo Jun knew the thief’s identity.

Luo Jun secured Eternal Virus stock solution from Old Rex and returned to the Main World, where they agreed to consider an alliance against an approaching crisis. He then tried to unpetrify Wu Kong to learn about the Wu Family Siblings’ plan, but Wu Kong’s body began to dissipate as the spell was lifted.

• Luo Jun gave Old Rex pure Vital Energy in exchange for a vial of ordinary Eternal Virus stock solution, and Caroline joined them on their way to Heaven City.
• Caroline explained that Heaven City sheltered about 128,000 survivors and studied awakened abilities to help preserve humanity and learn about Shapeshifting Faction cultivation.
• Old Rex gave Luo Jun three vials of stock solution, and Luo Jun returned with him through the Door to the Main World.
• Old Rex apologized for the Hell Creek Family’s past actions and proposed an alliance, asking Luo Jun to keep him alive if disaster struck.
• After leaving the family, Luo Jun summoned the petrified Wu Kong and asked Ailongtan to undo the spell so he could question him about the Eternal Star and the Wu Family Siblings’ plan.
• As Ailongtan lifted the petrification, Wu Kong’s physical body began to dissipate.

Luo Jun returned to Yuandu, reported Wu Kong’s escape and Ling Yang’s reappearance, and learned that the Ice Queen had not yet returned. The chapter ended when Mu Lanshi reported that Luo Jun had supposedly died after appearing in the Federation’s [Deep Space] world, where the real arrival was Aishiliya disguised as him.

• Luo Jun realized Amberti was Wu Kong’s summoned creature and that Wu Kong had used the deception to escape the [Game] world with the Kiss of the Life Goddess.
• Unable to teleport directly into Yuandu, Luo Jun forced the attention of its guards and was admitted to meet Wan Guiyuan and Old Yuan.
• Luo Jun reported that Wu Kong had escaped, then revealed that the supposedly dead Ling Yang had appeared with powerful followers.
• Wan Guiyuan began considering divinations about Ling Yang as the hundred-and-twenty-year deadline approached.
• Mu Lanshi arrived with reports that Luo Jun had died, and the group learned that Aishiliya had used Luo Jun’s appearance before entering [Deep Space] and appearing in the Federation.

Luo Jun learned that Aishiliya had appeared in a broadcast as a human devoured on Epsilon Third Planet, while the true threat there seemed to be a powerful being underground. Wan Guiyuan identified Luo Jun’s unremovable mask as evidence that he had met a maintainer and explained his theory that maintainers had fought and died out in an ancient war.

• A broadcast showed Aishiliya, trapped in Luo Jun’s appearance, being swallowed by an Omega-class Giant Insect on Epsilon Third Planet, prompting the Main World to believe Luo Jun had died.
• Luo Jun summoned Aishiliya, who explained that an underground Mental Power had sealed her transformation ability and pursued her toward the surface.
• Wan Guiyuan and Old Yuan explained that Omega-class insects possessed immense psionic reserves and could rival Ascension-level experts in raw power.
• Wan Guiyuan found that Luo Jun’s mask could not be removed and inferred that Luo Jun had met a powerful maintainer.
• Wan Guiyuan described maintainers as guardians of rules left by the Ancient True Gods and theorized that many had fallen in an ancient war.
• Old Yuan connected Luo Jun’s memories of Karruth and Dias from [Utopia] to Wan Guiyuan’s theory that the two gods had been maintainers.

Luo Jun learned why the Yuan Cultivation Society had exposed the Heavenly Father Church and agreed to stay presumed dead so he could focus on preparing for the prophesied return of the true gods. He secured passage through the Main World's gates and entered [Paranormal] to search for a Peak Level Vengeful Ghost, where he sensed a powerful surge of Ghost Qi above a city.

• Wan Guiyuan and Old Yuan explained that they had exposed the Pope and Grand Nun to undermine faith in Dias and possibly draw out the Maintainer, while Wan Guiyuan described [Chaos] as a system built by a powerful Maintainer.
• Luo Jun proposed having Aishiliya impersonate him, but Wan Guiyuan and Old Yuan advised him to let the world believe he was dead so he could avoid challengers and train for the true gods' prophesied descent.
• Luo Jun requested passage rights through every open gate, and Wan Guiyuan agreed to arrange them; Luo Jun chose to visit [Paranormal] for a Peak Level Vengeful Ghost.
• Old Yuan revealed that his former disciple had called him out and insisted on going alone, despite Wan Guiyuan's concerns about his safety.
• Luo Jun flew to the Southwest Branch, entered [Paranormal], and headed toward Liangyi Mountain to ask the Old Celestial Master for guidance.
• Luo Jun sensed an unusually powerful surge of Ghost Qi above a city's tallest skyscraper and dived toward it.

Chu Yue and the Spirit King Group battled a Vengeful Ghost inside the Wealth Center’s sealed Different Space while Luo Jun found a way inside. Luo Jun subdued the ghost and asked Chu Yue for a container, intending to pursue the building’s true culprit.

• Chu Yue led the Spirit King Group into the Wealth Center, where they became trapped in a Different Space and encountered a powerful Vengeful Ghost on the Forty-Fourth Floor.
• Cheng Hao and the team attacked the ghost as it evolved, and their clash sent a burst of energy through the Space Barrier.
• Luo Jun sensed the disturbance, tore open the Space Rift, and entered the Different Space from a nearby office.
• The ghost broke free of Chu Yue’s Silver Bracelet, but Luo Jun appeared and pinned it to the ground with one hand.
• Luo Jun asked Chu Yue for a high-grade container for the ghost and warned her that it was not the building’s true culprit.

Luo Jun helped the Spirit King Group escape a collapsing Different Space by smashing through its floors, leading them to the Ninety-Ninth Floor and a powerful ghost born from an overworked office worker’s endless revisions. The ghost attacked the group, but Luo Jun broke free of its paper trap and prepared to fight back.

• Cheng Hao gave Luo Jun the Spirit Prison, and Luo Jun used a Bronze Man to capture the Peak Level Vengeful Ghost before healing Cheng Hao and feeding the exhausted group.
• Chu Yue told Luo Jun that the Ninety-Ninth Floor was their likeliest destination because the elevators had never taken them there.
• Luo Jun broke through the ceiling and smashed holes through the floors, destabilizing the Different Space and forcing the group to climb upward through the collapsing building.
• Chu Yue reached the Ninety-Ninth Floor and found an office worker whose powerful Ghost Qi transformed him into a Muscle Monster after his manager demanded the first version of his proposal again.
• The Muscle Monster sealed the floor and attacked the group with curses, but Luo Jun blocked the first attack and cut through the paper proposals trapping him.

Luo Jun subdued a powerful Ghost King, returned to the Main World, and continued studying the unfinished Heartless Tribe cultivation technique. He traveled to Aigrun to enter [Utopia], where the Bishop urged him to stay for a celebration, and Luo Jun asked what the Bishop really wanted.

• Luo Jun burned and pinned the monster, then sealed it in the Gold Man as the constructed space collapsed.
• Luo Jun left Chu Yue to handle the office aftermath and crossed the Peak-level ghost off his list of Supreme Spirit Locking Pill materials.
• Luo Jun studied the Supreme Handbook’s unfinished later cultivation techniques and used his dice to work through obstacles on his way back to [Paranormal].
• After returning to the Main World, Luo Jun learned that Wan Guiyuan had arranged access to the overseas gates and chose to travel to Xiluo.
• Luo Jun flew to Aigrun and met the cathedral Bishop, who suggested he stay for Utopiya’s founding anniversary celebration.
• Luo Jun rejected the Bishop’s travel suggestions and asked him to state what he really wanted.

Luo Jun agreed to help the Holy See contain supernatural artifacts expected to erupt during Utopiya’s founding anniversary, after learning they might hold Ascension-level power. He traveled with Olysis to the Imperial Capital, where the museum crisis awaited.

• Lord Bishop told Luo Jun that intelligent supernatural forces in the Royal Museum planned to cause trouble during the anniversary celebration.
• Luo Jun agreed to help after learning the artifacts’ remaining power could rival Ascension, and he asked whether that power could be destroyed without damaging the artifacts.
• The Bishop arranged for Luo Jun to pass through the Gate of [Utopia] and introduced him to Holy See clergymen as an Ascension-level expert approved by the Acting Pope.
• Luo Jun learned that the Bishop was named Olysis and traveled with him by steam train toward the Imperial Capital.
• Luo Jun arrived in the Utopiya Imperial Capital with the museum issue still unresolved.

Luo Jun visited the Utopiya Royal Museum with Olysis to inspect the dangerous artifacts stored underground. After meeting Regna and Battle Sister Meridia, he reached the sealed room holding the museum’s most troublesome exhibits.

• Luo Jun learned that the museum’s dormant artifacts could hide unpredictable powers and followed Olysis underground to the problem exhibits.
• Regna challenged Luo Jun, but Meridia struck Regna with her War Hammer and welcomed Luo Jun on behalf of the Holy See’s Utopia branch.
• Luo Jun wondered why Meridia had not competed in the Heavenly Origin Tournament, and Olysis refused to explain.
• Olysis led Luo Jun to a heavily guarded iron door he called the “VIP room,” where the most troublesome exhibits were kept.

Luo Jun entered the Holy See’s sealed Secret Chamber and learned how its five dangerous artifacts had caused disasters. He chose to stay locked inside overnight, cultivated, reached level eighty-three, and expanded his Armament Transformation Ability to his feet.

• Osiris described how the spear, Crystal Skeleton, stone slab, Golden Cat, and angel statue had each caused trouble, including the angel’s defeat only after the Grand Nun intervened.
• Luo Jun asked Osiris and the guards to lock him in the Secret Chamber with the artifacts, and they reluctantly agreed to check on him each day.
• Alone in the chamber, Luo Jun tried to absorb the artifacts with his Essence Collector Bottle, then cultivated while waiting for his dice attempts to refresh.
• Luo Jun photographed and translated the Supreme Handbook but found that its teachings began beyond his current cultivation level, so he returned to the Heartless Tribe’s method.
• Luo Jun used all nine dice attempts, leveled up from eighty to eighty-three, and gained Armament Transformation in his feet as well as his hands.
• Luo Jun tested his transformed foot by cutting a mark into the wall, then stomped it against the ground.

Luo Jun discovered that his Armament Transformation had granted him Mountain-Piercing Strike, then cultivation inside the museum led him to cross into ancient Uruk. After learning that Parami was flourishing and Karruth might still be alive, he flew toward Amgilla but struck a transparent barrier before reaching its pyramid.

• Luo Jun tested Mountain-Piercing Strike, learned to transmit attacks through solid materials, and wrecked parts of the Secret Chamber.
• Olysis and two guards found the chamber damaged, heard Luo Jun assure them the celebration was proceeding normally, and left him to cultivate.
• Luo Jun reached level eighty-four, then the exhibits and room transformed around him, leaving him in an ancient city where Black Fire would not work.
• Luo Jun accepted a mission to return to the original era, learned from a passerby that he was in Uruk during King Mesos's reign, and headed south after hearing Parami was prosperous.
• Luo Jun recognized the ruins around Amgilla, flew toward its pyramid, and crashed into a transparent protective barrier.

Luo Jun entered Amgilla during Emperor Menehses’s final crisis and met Karruth through the emperor. Karruth explained how he had drawn Luo Jun into the past and questioned whether Luo Jun had the qualifications for an undisclosed purpose, leaving him to consider how his fate-altering power differed from the God of Destiny’s.

• Luo Jun arrived at Amgilla and learned from the birdmen that Emperor Menehses had requested to see him.
• Luo Jun entered the pyramid, where Menehses dismissed his guards and revealed that he knew Luo Jun would meet him again after his death.
• Karruth spoke through Menehses and explained that their future soul connection let him locate Luo Jun and draw him into the past.
• Karruth said he had brought Luo Jun there to test whether he possessed certain qualifications, but admitted that Luo Jun’s many uncertainties prevented him from judging.
• Karruth distinguished Luo Jun’s fate-altering ability from the God of Destiny’s power, saying that Luo Jun created uncertainty while the God of Destiny had sought stability.

Luo Jun learned from Karruth that the Ancient True Gods could alter the future, while Luo Jun’s Dice of Heavenly Secrets might attract their attention if he changed major events. After Karruth’s remnant soul vanished, Luo Jun left Amgilla and searched for a hidden place beneath a lake.

• Karruth explained that Luo Jun had disrupted his planned revival and that True Gods could erase people from history by changing the past.
• Karruth warned Luo Jun that the God Forsaken Land limited divine authority, but excessive use of the Dice of Heavenly Secrets outside it could draw a True God’s gaze.
• Karruth revealed that the guardians had learned they were subject to the Ancient True Gods’ will, and said Luo Jun’s actions had shown him a different future.
• Karruth’s remnant soul disappeared, and Emperor Menehses returned; he told Luo Jun to find his own way back.
• Luo Jun left Amgilla, flew to a lake that would become a desert thousands of years later, and discovered a hard wall beneath its lakebed.
