Chapter Summaries

Ying Zheng and the dynasty representatives debated how to respond to the suspected Level Six civilization and whether they could act against Lieyang Civilization without breaking their pact. After ordering preparations for war, Ying Zheng asked Gongzi Gao to assess the new threat, and Gao identified the legendary Angel Race as a likely possibility.

• Liu Che proposed attacking Lieyang Civilization, but Yang Jian, Li Shimin, and the other representatives opposed breaking their non-aggression pact and damaging Yanhuang's reputation.
• Kangxi suggested provoking Lieyang Civilization to create a cause for war, but Ying Zheng rebuked him and ordered envoys to ask Pan Zhen about the counterfeit and the new civilization.
• Ying Zheng warned that the new civilization's eighty million warships posed a grave threat and ordered the dynasties to gather supplies and prepare for war.
• After the representatives left, Ying Zheng went to Zhangtai Palace and asked Gongzi Gao for his assessment of the new civilization.
• Gongzi Gao said the new civilization was likely the legendary Angel Race and wondered whether the First Emperor in the Super God Universe was also a transmigrator.

Gongzi Gao explained the Super God Universe and the rise and fall of the Angel Civilization, then suggested the unfamiliar civilization near the Fiery Sun might be the Styx or Angel Civilization. The First Emperor asked him to continue as the court debated how Kaisha had maintained her authority with only a small force of angels.

• Gongzi Gao said the Great Qin Empire had appeared in the Four-dimensional universe, while the Huaxia Alliance had defeated it but could not locate it.
• Gongzi Gao offered two possibilities for the newly appeared civilization: it was either the Styx Civilization or the Angel Civilization.
• Meng Yi doubted that Kaisha could have ruled through personal authority alone, and the First Emperor urged Gongzi Gao to continue his explanation.

Gongzi Gao argued that Merlo Heavenly Court might have sent eighty million warships to the counterfeit Great Qin Empire, prompting Ying Zheng to order him to investigate Fiery Sun. Meanwhile, Lena urged Pan Zhen to prioritize an alliance with Merlo Heavenly Court against the Huaxia Alliance.

• Lena told Pan Zhen that Fiery Sun should ally with Merlo Heavenly Court to weaken or destroy the Huaxia Alliance.
• Lena warned Pan Zhen to put Fiery Sun's interests first when the Huaxia Alliance's envoy arrived to ask about Merlo Heavenly Court.

Gongzi Gao visited Fiery Sun, learned the supposed location of the counterfeit Great Qin Empire, and asked about Merlo Heavenly Court. Lena and Pan Zhen revealed that they had given him the coordinates under pressure from the Huaxia Alliance, while Merlo Heavenly Court’s leaders considered raiding Fiery Sun’s resource-rich neighbor.

• Pan Zhen asked Gongzi Gao to send eighty million warships to aid Fiery Sun, and Gongzi Gao realized Pan Zhen was testing him about the counterfeit Great Qin Empire.
• Pan Zhen had Wu Zhao give Gongzi Gao information claiming the counterfeit Great Qin Empire was hiding in a three-dimensional universe, and Wu Zhao explained that Merlo Heavenly Court had declined since Holy Kaisha’s fall.
• Gongzi Gao returned to the Great Qin Empire after gathering the information, while Pan Zhen revealed he had not actually gone to the front lines.
• Wu Zhao questioned whether Gongzi Gao would believe the coordinates, and Lena explained that Fiery Sun had given them under pressure from the Huaxia Alliance.
• Ailan reported that Fiery Sun and the universes it controlled lacked resources, and Sumali concluded that Fiery Sun’s neighboring civilization might be worth plundering.

Ailan learned that the Huaxia Alliance had destroyed the Great Qin Empire known to Merlo and decided how Merlo Heavenly Court would respond to Lieyang’s request for help. Meanwhile, Gongzi Gao reported that Lieyang had revealed clues about a counterfeit Great Qin, leaving Ying Zheng and his officials uncertain about the truth.

• Ailan led thirty million warships away from Lieyang’s capital, while the remaining fifty million withdrew beyond Lieyang’s universal blockade line.
• Gongzi Gao told Ying Zheng and the Great Qin officials that Pan Zhen had withheld information, but Lieyang had supplied clues about a counterfeit Great Qin dating back around thirty thousand years.

First Emperor Ying Zheng ordered an investigation into the counterfeit Great Qin while worrying tremors suggested a war in the Fifth-dimensional world was affecting lower dimensions. Li Bing'er discovered that the Great Qin Empire had sent her a distress signal fifty thousand years earlier and sent Li Feng to search for survivors and help them.

• Ying Zheng ordered General Zhang Han to investigate the counterfeit Great Qin as the empire endured another violent cosmic tremor.
• Li Bing'er learned that her AI had received an incomplete distress message from the four-dimensional world about 150 years earlier in Star Ancient Empire time.

• Bai Mu revealed that Li Bing'er had revived Bai Qi using data from all ten Imperial Grand Marshals and enhanced the revived figures into sixth-generation super soldiers.
• Yang Yu realized why Great Qin’s Bai Qi had fought so effectively and asked whether Fiery Sun’s governor was an idiot for standing aside.

Yang Yu suspected Fiery Sun of betraying the Great Qin Empire and warned Merlo Heavenly Court to make its own choice. Meanwhile, Li Feng’s escort fleet was destroyed, and a mysterious being entered the Primordial Universe and went to Emperor Star (former Earth).

• Yang Yu reasoned that Fiery Sun had abandoned the Great Qin Empire for its own interests and ordered Bai Mu to discreetly warn Merlo Heavenly Court.

• The Nightfall leader told Bai Qi that Great Qin and other Primordial Universe civilizations were nurtured to fight the myriad races, not to join the war against the Outer Realm invaders.

Princess Mu Ying Yang Yue appeared in the Fifth-dimensional world and brought Bai Qi to the Star World to meet Yang Yu. Bai Qi recognized Yang Yu as the Sui Emperor, but Yang Yu rejected the ancestral title because they were separated by a billion years.

• Princess Mu Ying Yang Yue arrived to inspect the situation and warned Nightfall's leader not to descend to the lower realm without need.
• Nightfall's leader told Bai Qi that Princess Mu Ying had once been called Weaving-Clothes on Origin Star, then took him to the Star World.
• Yang Yu and Yang Lin'er discussed how the Empire could profit from the Dragon Human Empire's war against four empires, including whether to send troops or a Star Fortress.

Bai Lin and Long Ya sought tactical support after sensing something wrong with the unusually calm right-wing battlefield. Imperial staff officer Bai Wen pointed out that they had lost sight of their mission: sealing the enemy outside the defensive line and preventing it from gathering information about their world.

• Adjutant Long Xiao reported a full-scale enemy counterattack on the left wing and an oddly quiet right wing, where Marshal Yang Ming and Marshal Lin Feng requested tactical support.

• At the observation station, a young warrior questioned Qi Feng about his past before a middle-aged man explained that Qi Feng's wife and daughter had died in the Primordial Four-dimensional Universe war.
• Qi Feng asked whether the half-hourly quantum detection scan had been conducted, and the young warrior said it had not.

Qi Feng’s quantum scanner detected a probe near Universe No. 113, alerting the station and prompting suspicion that the probes self-destructed when scanned. Meanwhile, Lin Hai planned another probe launch and a concealed approach through an asteroid belt, hoping to enter Universe Highland No. 113 and rendezvous with Edwin Zacharias.

• Qi Feng detected anomalous waves that indicated a probe near Universe No. 113 and alerted the defense platforms and station chief.

• Bai Lin ordered Universe No. 113 to let the attackers enter while fleet detachments prepared to seal it off and trap them.
• The Imperial Marshal launched an offensive, ordered the front line to retreat two universes, and requested engineering and transport ships to build defenses.
• Marshal Nock Benjamin reported that Insectoid Race forces had struck the Dark Empire’s battlefield, so the Silver-haired Youth ordered him to defend the right wing with his two hundred fleets.
• The Silver-haired Youth threatened to destroy the Dark Freedom Federation if Nock Benjamin failed to hold the line, despite his shortage of ships and personnel.
• The noblewoman and Lin Jiu discussed the Silver-haired Youth’s predicament, Bai Lin’s future strength, and the possibility that an intervention could prolong the war for a million years.

• Yang Yue ordered the laboratory sealed and its researchers detained after finding the project team apparently mad.
• Yang Yu learned that Li Muyao and the other academicians had gone mad, then ordered a flying ship to Xuanbing Universe to inspect their project.

Yang Yu investigated why the Imperial Academy of Engineering’s Alignment research team had gone mad after concluding that higher dimensions should absolutely suppress lower ones. He demonstrated the effect with his own power and ordered the scholars to restore dimensional order, leaving them responsible for finding a way to resolve the disruption.

• Yang Yu arrived at the research group and asked why Li Muyao and the other scholars had become unstable.
• Yang Yue explained that the team’s calculations about dimensional alignment had led them to reject the existence of dimensional space and obsessively run simulations.
• The scholars told Yang Yu that their world was fake, and Bai Mu slapped them at Yang Yu’s direction.
• Yang Yu used his domain to make beings across the universe feel the overwhelming power of a higher-dimensional existence.
• Yang Yu withdrew the domain and ordered the scholars to take responsibility for restoring Alignment Suppression between dimensions.

Yang Yu and Star investigated SSSSS-class research data that suggested the Star Ancient Empire had experienced a historical fault line and might have lived through a false history. Star confronted the noblewoman and Lin Jiu, who denied that the old game could have altered or erased history.

• Yang Yu left the Xuanbing Universe, and Li Muyao ordered the research project shut down and its findings sealed at the Empire's highest secrecy level.
• Star told Yang Yu that she could not access the newly uploaded files, so Yang Yu entered the central server and read them himself.
• Yang Yu asked Star to calculate the researchers' data, and Star concluded that it suggested a lost historical fault line and an Imperial history far longer than one billion years.
