Chapter Summaries

Lin Xiao learned that Du Long Er Star Soul was doomed to fall and that he had less than ten years to prepare to face the fallen Titan. He reached Du Long Er’s last resistance fortress, where the defenders placed their hopes in him as the ancient god’s forces began a full-scale assault.

• Du Long Er Star Soul gave Lin Xiao half of its origin, leaving him bound to face its fallen self and reclaim the other half; Lin Xiao set a goal of reaching level 80 to use his Black Hole ability.
• Lin Xiao crossed the White Bone Wilderness and received the legendary Du Long Er, Hand of Immortality from the Forgotten Ones, then continued toward the final resistance line.
• At Last Hope Plain, Lin Xiao encountered the ancient god’s forces attacking the fortress and flew inside while the defenders engaged the Children of the ancient god.
• The fortress leaders told Lin Xiao that Du Long Er’s light had dimmed and the world’s destruction seemed unavoidable; Lin Xiao vowed to bring hope and said he needed to become stronger.
• High Priestess of Light Effelia asked Lin Xiao to follow her into Du Long Er Fortress.

Lin Xiao obtained the Divinity Crown and Du Long Er's Titan Sword, then collected the rest of the Legendary set and began fighting the ancient god's minions. After Sageron’s tentacles repeatedly interrupted his leveling, Lin Xiao traveled to Broken Swamp and summoned Ethereals to attack a fallen Snake-Man patrol.

• Lin Xiao bound the Divinity Crown and Du Long Er's Titan Sword, whose power made the fortress’s light beam flare and dispel the Gray Mist.
• Lin Xiao gathered the remaining four Legendary set pieces, completed the six-piece set, and began slaughtering enemies on the battlefield.
• Lin Xiao fought Sageron’s minions, but the ancient god’s tentacles repeatedly ambushed him, so he stopped using the Titan Sword and traveled to Broken Swamp.
• Lin Xiao used Warp Conversion on an elite Snake-Man, summoning eight Ethereals that included the Wandering Swordsman Sven and the Saint of Light.
• The Wandering Swordsman swept his greatsword through the fallen Snake-Men patrol, cutting the common Snake-Men in half.

Five years after reaching Du Long Er Planet, the human players fought the Nightmare Children until Prophet Rex turned the battle against them. Lin Xiao emerged from seclusion and flew to help, surprising Wu Zhonglin with his powerful aura.

• Gu Cheng led the human players in ambushing Nightmare Children near Du Long Er Fortress, where both sides had rebuilt their strength and equipment.
• Yue Lingzhi detected five Flesh Dominators at an Ancient Gods' Destruction Node, and the humans decided to attack the Nightmare Children and investigate.
• The human players ambushed their enemies and gained the advantage, but a Nightmare Child summoned Prophet Rex, who controlled Gu Cheng and helped the Nightmare Children defeat them.
• The surviving humans waited for Dragon Emperor, while Lin Xiao offered to help and flew toward their location.
• Wu Zhonglin met Lin Xiao in the air and sensed that Lin Xiao had gained a powerful aura during his seclusion.

Lin Xiao returned to Du Long Er Fortress after effortlessly defeating Prophet Rex and announced that the players had to leave the doomed planet within half a year. As the Star Soul Du Long Er neared its transformation into a Dark Titan, the players began preparing to gather equipment before escaping to the Shattered Void.

• Lin Xiao revealed himself to Prophet Rex, who fled in terror when Lin Xiao drew the Titan Sword; Lin Xiao destroyed him and killed the controlled players caught in the attack.
• Lin Xiao returned to Du Long Er Fortress with Wu Zhonglin and announced that they would take the players to Mahadune to activate the teleportation array and return to the Shattered Void.
• Lin Xiao explained that Du Long Er's fallen Star Soul was about to become a Dark Titan and that the players had at most half a year to escape.
• The players accepted the deadline and set out to grind for orange equipment, while Wu Zhonglin joined them.
• Lin Xiao met with Du Long Er Fortress's faction leaders and saw that High Priestess Aifeilia's power had continued to decline.

Lin Xiao organized the Du Long Er Remnants and other players to evacuate the doomed planet and establish a main city on the Broken Floating Land, securing half the venture’s shares for himself. He then attacked Mahadune with the Du Long Er Titan Sword, forcing the fallen Guardian back until the Guardian appeared to escape through a newly activated teleportation array.

• Lin Xiao offered the faction leaders a choice between leaving Du Long Er with their people or staying to face the coming Dark Titan; some agreed to leave, while others stayed or sent their people away.
• Lin Xiao and Wu Zhonglin persuaded the players to cooperate in building a main city on the Broken Floating Land, then divided the shares with Lin Xiao taking half and Wu Zhonglin taking nineteen percent.
• Lin Xiao made agreements with the major factions and entrusted Wu Zhonglin with overseeing the city’s construction and benefits before heading alone to Mahadune.
• Lin Xiao devastated Mahadune’s outskirts with the Titan Sword, then battered the Guardian’s protective barrier as the fallen Guardian returned one strike against him.
• Lin Xiao broke through the shrinking barrier and entered the Guardian Tower, where he found a recently activated teleportation array and suspected the Guardian had fled.

Lin Xiao evacuated the surviving people from Du Long Er before destroying their final means of escape and transforming into a black hole to grow stronger. After Dark Titan Du Long Er emerged and began rapidly gaining power, Lin Xiao descended into the planet and began another, longer period of devouring.

• Lin Xiao cleared the Guardian's Tower, collected Ancient God Minion Marks and equipment, and discovered a large raid dungeon.
• Over the following year, Lin Xiao helped teleport the willing survivors and their supplies from Du Long Er Fortress to the Broken Floating Land near Void Dragon Gulsaga.
• Lin Xiao sensed Du Long Er emerging as the Dark Titan, destroyed the Cross-Realm Teleportation Array, and prepared to face him with the few leaders who remained.
• High Priestess Aifeilia and dragon leader Alros stayed with Lin Xiao as he transformed into a black hole that devoured Du Long Er Fortress and the surrounding region for half a year.
• After his safeguards awakened him, Lin Xiao realized the Dark Titan's power was growing rapidly, then descended into the crater and transformed into a black hole again for a planned two-year devouring period.

Lin Xiao’s true body and descended avatar entered slumber as the Crystal Wall System Origin Core advanced. Eight years later, Lin Xiao awakened with power comparable to a True God and a soul fused with the Core, then kept his transformation secret while examining its new abilities.

• Lin Xiao realized the Star Soul origin had accelerated the Moonlit Sky Realm’s consumption and warned Shen Yuexin, Class Teacher, and Xie Yufei that he would enter slumber.
• Lin Xiao instructed his subordinates to watch over the Moonlit Sky Realm, then entered slumber alongside his descended avatar.
• After eight years, Lin Xiao awakened amid a burst of divine radiance, and Lin Bao arrived to ask whether he had ascended to godhood.
• Lin Xiao explained that his repaired Origin Core and its ninety-nine Bottom-Layer Rules networks gave him power comparable to a True God, while his soul had become the Core’s origin consciousness.
• Lin Xiao told Lin Bao to keep his new strength secret, then began examining the advanced Origin Core and its altered abilities.

After completing the Crystal Wall System Origin Core’s promotion, Lin Xiao prepared for the Moonlit Sky Realm’s faster devouring and warned his family to return home. Meanwhile, his black hole incarnation gained Dark Titan authority and waited as Du Long Er killed Sageron, leaving the two Titans poised to confront each other.

• Lin Xiao considered how to relocate the Moonlit Sky Realm’s people and asked Xie Yufei about using the Zhang Family’s territory if needed.
• Lin Xiao warned his parents and family to return to the Main World.
• Lin Xiao’s black hole incarnation gained the ability to divide Dark Titan Du Long Er’s authority, allowing him to develop a Titan Body of his own.
• Two months later, Du Long Er killed Life Devourer Sageron and burned its final lifeform to ashes.
• Du Long Er turned toward Lin Xiao’s black hole and strode toward it.

Lin Xiao became the World Devourer and fought Dark Titan Du Long Er across the void, destroying planets as they struggled to claim each other’s origin. Their battle continued as an Astral Conglomerate ship and its Void Marauder pursuers encountered the Titans and suffered deadly aftershocks.

• Two ancient consciousnesses sensed the birth of the fallen Dark Titan Du Long Er and the incomplete Titan Lin Xiao, then sent two streaks of light into the void.
• Lin Xiao transformed into the World Devourer, and he and Du Long Er destroyed their planet as they clashed with Titan Swords.
• Driven by their shared origin, Lin Xiao and Du Long Er continued fighting across the void, consuming or shattering planets over the following months.
• An Astral Conglomerate ship sought refuge near the Earth Splitters’ planet but found it reduced to an asteroid belt, while the pursuing Void Marauders arrived nearby.
• The Ethereal witnessed the Titans appear, and the sight extinguished the soul flames of half of them; survivors fled while the battle continued unnoticed by Lin Xiao and Du Long Er.

Lin Xiao gained the upper hand over Du Long Er after decades of battle, but the Human Master intervened just as Lin Xiao prepared to finish him. The Human Master offered Lin Xiao a share of Titan Innate Source in exchange for helping defeat the Nightmare Master, and Lin Xiao chose to attack the Nightmare Children’s Main World after dealing with Du Long Er.

• Lin Xiao’s Devouring authority let him outlast Du Long Er, and he steadily gained the advantage over their decades-long battle.
• Lin Xiao prepared to finish Du Long Er, but the Human Master and Nightmare Master appeared and struggled to banish him and free Du Long Er.
• The Human Master offered Lin Xiao a future favor and a portion of Titan Innate Source if he helped defeat the Nightmare Master and claim mastery of the Crystal Wall System.
• Lin Xiao learned that his Titan form was only an incarnation and that the power he could retain depended on his true body’s capacity.
• Lin Xiao chose to return to his birthplace and attack the Nightmare Children’s Main World rather than confront the Nightmare Master directly.
• Lin Xiao trapped Du Long Er with his black hole and began wearing him down to prevent outside interference.

Decades after Lin Xiao’s battle with Du Long Er, he finished refining Du Long Er’s origin and became a true Titan. He discovered that the souls of those consumed by his black hole became Twisted Void Spirits and set off across the void with his newfound power.

• Over the decades, Shen Yuexin and Wu Zhonglin retained control of major shares and districts in Du Long Er Main City, while Shen Yuexin’s fortress on Purgatory Floating Land reached level five.
• Lin Xiao completed the refinement of Dark Titan Du Long Er’s body and origin, causing his power and black hole’s gravity to surge.
• The intensified gravity destroyed Ateisha’s spatial gate and body, then transformed her consciousness into a Twisted Void Spirit.
• Lin Xiao examined his status panel and found that he had become a level 124 Titan with attributes exceeding one million.
• Lin Xiao realized that the Twisted Void Spirits were formed from the souls of intelligent beings consumed by his black hole and that he could control them.
• Lin Xiao revealed his colossal Titan form and strode into the void, able to hold planets in his hand and extinguish their life with a breath.

Lin Xiao returned to Outland as a powerful projection, enslaved Void Nether Dragon Gul'sarga as his mount, and traveled toward Du Long Er Floating Land. Along the way, he learned that humanity had gained an advantage over the Nightmare Children and that his Girlfriend usually stayed in the city’s Divine Palace District.

• Lin Xiao sent a projection to the Nether Dragon Nest, where his Titan aura frightened Gul'sarga into submission, and he took the World BOSS as his mount.
• A group of players watched in shock as Lin Xiao rode Gul'sarga away, disrupting their plans to begin the dragon’s reputation quest.
• When Gul'sarga asked permission to attack fleeing Nightmare Child players, Lin Xiao told it to keep moving and killed the group himself with a fel beam.
• Lin Xiao read the player channels and learned that human players were mostly level seventy to seventy-five, while humanity held more floating lands than the Nightmare Children.
• Lin Xiao learned that Du Long Er Fortress had been established and that Shen Yuexin had helped secure an independent Divine Palace District for the surviving clergy.

Shen Yuexin faced growing political pressure over the Moonlit Cloud Guild’s control of valuable class exchanges and prepared for an upcoming shareholders’ meeting, while reports of Nightmare Children in the Underground World raised concern. Lin Xiao suddenly returned and reunited with her, but their private moment ended when she stopped him because her father forbade them from going further before marriage.

• Shen Yuexin heard that factions were turning against the Moonlit Cloud Guild ahead of the annual Main City shareholders’ meeting and asked Xue Ji to summon the major lords.
• Xue Ji reported that Nightmare Children had appeared in the Underground World beneath Hellfire Plain and that support among the major lords for Shen Yuexin was weakening.
• Lin Xiao appeared in the Holy Divine Palace, took Shen Yuexin’s hand, and whisked her away before the guild executives could question him.
• Lin Xiao brought Shen Yuexin to the Demon Suppression Fortress, where the two shared an intimate moment unseen by the other players.
• Shen Yuexin stopped Lin Xiao and explained that her father would not let them go further until they were officially married, leaving Lin Xiao sensing that something bad might happen.

Lin Xiao learned the conditions Shen Yuexin’s father had set for their marriage and decided he would grow strong enough to meet them. After hearing about trouble facing Shen Yuexin’s guild, he promised to deal with the people responsible.

• Lin Xiao asked Shen Yuexin what he needed to do to formally marry her, and she explained that he must become an Intermediate Divine Power and establish a recognized pantheon, or become a Crystal Wall System Master with sufficient potential.
• Lin Xiao judged that building a pantheon would be difficult because its Subordinate Gods had to merge most of their Divine Domains into the kingdom, and he considered conquering a Crystal Wall System the more likely path.
• Lin Xiao told Shen Yuexin’s incarnation that he would marry her openly in less than a hundred years, and the two shared stories about their lives apart.
• Shen Yuexin told Lin Xiao that her guild had recently faced trouble, and he vowed to take back the shares he had given to the traitors.

Lin Xiao took control of the surviving people and authorities in Du Long Er Fortress, then learned that Wu Zhonglin had discovered Yarji, a Nightmare Child transformed into an ancient god, beneath Hell's Wall Mountain Range. While traveling to investigate, Lin Xiao destroyed Yun Xin's fortress and found traces of ancient gods at the bottomless Sethekk crater, leaving him questioning how they had reached this world without a Star Soul.

• Lin Xiao resurrected Effelia as his High Priestess, met Du Long Er's surviving leaders, and took control of them and the fortress's authorities.
• Wu Zhonglin's report revealed Yarji, a level 97 Nightmare Child with an ancient god transformation, in a subterranean main city beneath Hell's Wall Mountain Range.
• Lin Xiao traveled through Biggsas's fortress and Shattrath Wasteland toward the region where Wu Zhonglin had found Yarji.
• Lin Xiao recognized Yun Xin near Sethekk, summoned Twisted Void Spirits to destroy Yun Xin's fortress, and left after its central tower collapsed.
• Lin Xiao examined gray mist at Sethekk and sensed traces of ancient gods but no Star Soul, which he found inexplicable.

Lin Xiao investigated the Bottomless Abyss and discovered that an ancient god had devoured the planet’s Star Soul, then transformed and vanished. The discovery left him wondering how many transformed ancient gods existed and whether the two Masters knew, while he recognized the danger of pursuing the secret and decided to contact his true body.

• Lin Xiao reasoned that the world’s ancient god had either come from elsewhere or had hidden the traces of a Star Soul, and he jumped into the Bottomless Abyss to investigate.
• Lin Xiao descended through the corrosive Gray Mist, whose illusions and attacks grew stronger the deeper he went.
• An Unknown Existence struck Lin Xiao and shattered his shield, so he used Black Hole to devour the mist and reveal a vast mountain of flesh covered in colossal monsters.
• Lin Xiao realized the flesh mountain was the remains of an ancient god that had devoured the planet’s Star Soul and transformed before departing.
• Lin Xiao considered keeping the secret from the Human Master, recognized how dangerous that idea was, and decided to contact his true body.

Lin Xiao learned that the Star Soul Crystal Wall System hid powerful forces and might still retain part of its will, creating a chance to challenge the two Masters. After discussing the risks with Shen Yuexin and her father, he chose to seek benefits from the secret and asked to exchange an Innate Source for Yue Xin.

• Lin Xiao told Shen Yuexin that the hidden forces and surviving will in the Star Soul Crystal Wall System might let him replace the two Masters, though success was unlikely.
• Shen Yuexin advised him to use his knowledge and strength to secure benefits rather than pursue the Crystal Wall System's position, and offered to contact her father.
• Lin Xiao explained his discoveries and theories to Shen Yuexin's father, who confirmed that the world’s control was incomplete and outlined two choices: trade the secret now or investigate the vanished Ancient Gods for greater leverage.
• Shen Yuexin's father said Lin Xiao could obtain one Innate Source for his Titan incarnation, but another would require a more valuable contribution and would be difficult to secure.
• Lin Xiao took Shen Yuexin's hand and said he wanted to exchange an Innate Source for Yue Xin, leaving her father silent.

Lin Xiao transformed the Ancient god’s remnants beneath Sethekk Basin into raid instances and entered the Underground World to destroy Yarji’s main city. There, he discovered Yarji had seemingly absorbed and controlled hundreds of thousands of Nightmare Players, with the Nightmare Master’s approval.

• Lin Xiao agreed to investigate the vanished Ancient Gods after arranging two Innate Sources, including one for Shen Yuexin.
• Lin Xiao devoured the Ancient god’s remnants beneath Sethekk Basin, causing the basin to collapse and creating more than a dozen raid instances at Demon Suppression Fortress.
• Lin Xiao entered the Underground World and used a black ray to empower a giant crocodile, which destroyed a Nightmare Player fortress.
• Lin Xiao followed Nightmare Players to Yarji’s vast underground city and saw Yarji and every player there turn to watch him.
• Lin Xiao examined a Nightmare Player who reassembled after being cut apart and concluded that Yarji had devoured and could control the players.
• Lin Xiao suspected the Nightmare Master had permitted Yarji’s actions as part of a scheme against him.

Lin Xiao confronted Yarji’s controlled Nightmare Players and overwhelmed Yarji’s forces with his awakened Titan Authority, Scorching Heat. He nearly destroyed Yarji before learning that it was connected to the Nightmare Master, then questioned how Yarji had concealed its True Body Descent.

• Yarji sent hordes of controlled Nightmare Players against Lin Xiao, who killed wave after wave with Holy Light Arrows.
• A giant Flesh Puppet formed from fused melee players and struck Lin Xiao’s shield, while Yarji’s tentacle empowered it with Ancient God corruption.
• Lin Xiao invoked Authority, Scorching Heat, burning away Yarji’s scattered consciousness, shrinking its body, and immobilizing the Flesh Puppet.
• Wind of Stroke and several stealth-team members watched the Nightmare Main City transform into a charred ball of flesh and wondered who Lin Xiao was.
• Yarji called for the Nightmare Master, but Lin Xiao sensed no arrival and demanded to know how Yarji had hidden its True Body Descent from the two Masters.

Lin Xiao realized the Nightmare Main World was the Nightmare Master's birthplace and decided to enter it only after his True Body arrived. He fought Yarji with his Ethereals, and his Void Annihilation shattered Yarji's body, though Yarji remained trapped in the collapsing void.

• Yarji revealed that the Nightmare Main World was where the Nightmare Master was born, prompting Lin Xiao to infer that both Masters' power was tied to their birth worlds.
• Lin Xiao decided to wait for his True Body before visiting the Nightmare Main World, then used Twisted Void Spirit to destroy the regenerating Flesh Puppet and unleash eight Ethereals against Yarji.
• Yarji transformed into a towering flesh creature and countered the Ethereals with powerful attacks and debilitating rays, while a divine priest repeatedly cleansed and strengthened Sven.
• Sven and the other Ethereals attacked Yarji, but his severed flesh spawned monsters that overwhelmed Sven and tried to bind him.
• Lin Xiao used Void Annihilation to shatter the spatial laws around Yarji, tearing open the flesh net and cracking Yarji's body and central eye.
