Chapter Summaries

Su Li investigated the Divine Corpse and found matching remnants of Material Manipulation energy and Celestial God energy, then continued toward its center as the Xilan Civilization unleashed a Rule Storm. He survived the storm behind layers of energy shields and prepared to leave, while the Xilan leaders waited for proof that their plan had succeeded.

• Su Li explored a wound in the Divine Corpse and found remnants of both multicolored energy and Celestial God energy, which seemed to share a deep connection with him.
• Su Li collected the two kinds of energy and flew deeper into the Divine Corpse, finding the same paired remnants in several other wounds.
• Su Li reached the Divine Corpse's center as a violent Rule Storm triggered by the Xilan Civilization spread through it.
• Su Li used Energy Manipulation to continually replace energy shields destroyed by the Rule Storm and concluded that it could not kill him.
• Su Li decided to leave the storm, while Mujis and Xite waited on Yinhuang Star for confirmation of their plan's success.
• Mujis's communicator rang, making the Xilan Civilization's leaders uneasy.

Su Li secured the Divine Corpse and advanced technology from Mujis as compensation for losing their bet, then returned to his laboratory. He discovered that his Resource Points had suddenly risen to more than nine hundred trillion and wondered what had caused the increase.

• Mujis and Baijier agreed to take Su Li's demands seriously and avoid provoking him.
• Su Li demanded the Divine Corpse, its transport technology, and other advanced technologies from Mujis, who agreed to provide them.
• Mujis promised to transport the Divine Corpse to the Zidar System within a month and deliver the technologies within three days.
• Su Li returned to Linghui Star and set out to ask Beifeng Ge'er how to process the Cosmic Deity's body.
• Su Li noticed that his Resource Points had suddenly climbed to more than nine hundred trillion and opened his prompt panel to investigate.

Su Li learned that the Xilan Civilization had finally stopped persecuting Superhumans, completing his mission and granting him over 843 trillion Resource Points. He decided to manifest A-rank before continuing his other plans and asked Beifeng Ge'er to process materials from a Cosmic Deity’s corpse, leaving Beifeng Ge'er eager to help.

• Su Li saw that the Xilan Civilization’s genuine abandonment of its plans against Superhumans had completed his mission and awarded him 843653454837495 Resource Points.
• Su Li decided to accept the Xilan Civilization’s year-long deception and use his greatly increased Resource Points to manifest A-rank as soon as possible.
• Su Li went to the laboratory and gave Beifeng Ge'er a large supply of law-infused materials to process, asking him to copy the processing techniques.
• Beifeng Ge'er recognized the materials as top-grade remains from a Cosmic Deity, and Su Li agreed to give him part of them if he processed the rest.

Su Li secluded himself in a distant galaxy and spent 8.96 quadrillion Resource Points to advance from B+ directly to A+, while Xia Ke stayed in a base on a nearby planet. His advancement unleashed a galaxy-spanning energy storm, and Xia Ke saw a chance to use its energy to reach C-Class.

• Su Li brought Xia Ke to a desolate planet and set up a fully equipped base for her before leaving to advance alone.
• Su Li spent three days scattering thousands of high-energy shielding devices around the galaxy to conceal the disturbance from his advancement.
• Su Li selected A+ in the Shop and triggered a massive energy storm that swept across the galaxy.
• Xia Ke felt the storm from the planet, understood why Su Li had left her behind, and hurried back into the base to absorb its energy in hopes of advancing to C-Class.

After six months of cultivation, Su Li reached A+ in the Real Universe and sensed something outside Earth that was deeply connected to him. He reunited with Xia Ke after she advanced to C-Class, then planned to secure the energy-rich star system for humanity while preparing to investigate the mysterious connection.

• Su Li absorbed the energy storm and advanced to A+ in the Real Universe.
• Su Li discovered that Xia Ke had advanced to C-Class, then waited beside her while she cultivated.
• Su Li used Ultimate Wisdom's final active premonition and sensed something outside Earth connected to him, but decided to take Xia Ke back before investigating.
• Xia Ke finished cultivating and congratulated Su Li; she explained that the increased energy density during his advancement had helped her break through.
• Su Li found that the star system still offered a major cultivation boost to lower-ranked Superhumans and planned to lock in its energy for Director Ye.

After returning to Earth with Xia Ke, Su Li gave her a space key for Director Ye and a mysterious necklace packed with preparations for an unknown danger. He then left Earth to investigate the thing that had triggered a reaction from his Ultimate Wisdom.

• On a desolate planet, Su Li and Xia Ke reunited, and Su Li sealed the space around the galaxy to isolate it from the outside world.
• Two days later, Su Li brought Xia Ke back to Earth and retrieved her android from the Armed Forces Department.
• Su Li gave Xia Ke a key that could take Director Ye to the galaxy, then put a silver-white necklace containing his preparations around Xia Ke's neck.
• After checking on Xia Ke and his parents, Su Li left Earth to investigate the mysterious thing that had caught the attention of his Ultimate Wisdom.

Su Li followed a mysterious sensation to a hidden planet in the Milky Way and discovered that it was the real-universe Primal Star. After searching the Barren Forest, he found the Cloud-Devouring Python he had known in the Virtual Universe, leaving him to confront the possibility that the virtual world reflected real beings.

• Su Li located a concealed energy field around the fifth planet of a nearby galaxy and silently entered it.
• Su Li recognized the planet as Primal Star and reasoned that it might be a projection of an existence in the Real Universe.
• Su Li searched the Barren Forest but initially found none of the familiar people or the Cloud-Devouring Python.
• Su Li spotted a python advancing to E+ rank and confirmed it was the very same Cloud-Devouring Python he had known in the Virtual Universe.

Su Li confirmed that the Real Universe’s Primal Star was behind the Virtual Universe’s version in time, and considered whether the Virtual Universe was a future world or a projection with altered time. He began scanning the Real Universe’s Primal Star for evidence, while the Diqiong alerted a mysterious phantom inside a metal fortress.

• Su Li recognized that the Real Universe’s Cloud-Devouring Python was the same creature as its stronger Virtual Universe counterpart, then captured a Diqiong and found it was younger and weaker than the one he had encountered before.
• Su Li concluded that the Virtual Universe’s Primal Star was temporally ahead of the Real Universe’s and weighed two explanations: accelerated time in a projection or a world from the distant future.
• Su Li reasoned that finding something erased from the Virtual Universe’s Primal Star could help distinguish the explanations, and considered asking Ursa God for the truth someday.
• The Diqiong fled to a metal fortress beneath the Diqiong Sea, repeatedly rammed it, and drew out a puzzled phantom before departing.
• Su Li began scanning the Real Universe’s Primal Star to record matter above the nanoscale and compare it with the Virtual Universe’s version.

While recording Primal Star, Su Li discovered a massive spaceship buried beneath the Diqiong Sea and cautiously investigated its occupants. He secretly obtained detailed intelligence about the Real Universe’s cosmic structure, leaving him eager to explore beyond the Milky Way Galaxy for more Resource Points.

• Su Li sensed a giant spaceship beneath the Diqiong Sea and prepared escape measures before it emerged and locked onto the Barren Forest.
• Su Li sent part of his consciousness into the spaceship while its barrel-shaped master and a winged phantom discussed his unknown identity.
• The spaceship’s master decided to attempt peaceful negotiations, wary that Su Li might be a powerful figure from another star cluster.
• Su Li infiltrated the spaceship’s information systems without detection and discovered detailed intelligence covering several hundred major star clusters.
• Su Li realized the information would let him explore beyond the Milky Way Galaxy and earn Resource Points more quickly.

Su Li met Aomola, the Nuke Star Person who owned the Milky Way Galaxy, and considered whether he could gain the Cosmic Species Alliance’s recognition to claim it. Their tense conversation ended with Su Li revealing that Aomola was charging a powerful spaceship to attack him.

• Aomola emerged from his spaceship and introduced himself to Su Li, who recognized him as the owner of the Milky Way Galaxy.
• Su Li considered the risks of taking the galaxy from Aomola and decided not to use force or the Mind Oscillator because the Cosmic Species Alliance might discover it.
• Aomola assumed Su Li could not understand his language, then challenged him for trespassing in his territory.
• Su Li revealed that Aomola was charging a Shattered-class spaceship to attack him, leaving Aomola alarmed and suspicious.

Su Li intimidated Aomola into realizing that resisting him was futile, then used Aomola’s secret galaxy-wide experimentation plan to pressure him. Su Li demanded Aomola’s galaxy in exchange for precious items, and Aomola was left to consider the offer.

• Su Li used his power to pull Aomola out of his spaceship and immobilized him, making Aomola realize he could not fight back.
• Su Li revealed that he knew Aomola’s research history and plan to use all 5,391 habitable planets in the Aomola Galaxy for experiments.
• Su Li warned Aomola that his galaxy-wide experiments could violate the Cosmic Species Alliance’s rules, and Aomola denied carrying them out.
• Aomola inferred what Su Li wanted and offered to satisfy his request to save his life.
• Su Li demanded Aomola’s galaxy and offered to trade precious items for it.

Su Li secured Aomola’s cooperation and traveled with him toward the Universe Alliance’s territory. In the Virtual Universe, Su Li investigated Primal Star and considered whether it came from the future, but he left the question unresolved.

• Aomola agreed to Su Li’s request after weighing the risks and promised compensation.
• Su Li returned to Earth to speak with Xia Ke, then left again shortly afterward.
• Su Li and Aomola departed Primal Star aboard a spaceship, with their trip expected to take about ninety hours.
• After taking control of the ship’s artificial intelligence, Su Li entered the Virtual Universe to investigate Primal Star.
• Su Li found no sign of Aomola in the Virtual Universe’s Primal Star and reasoned that the place might come from the future.
• Su Li considered whether his future self had sent the Virtual Universe into the past, then reminded himself that he had not confirmed the theory.

Su Li returned to Linghui Star to meet Beifeng Ge'er and ask about the Cosmic Species Alliance. Beifeng Ge'er explained the alliance's connection to the Order Celestial God and its potential benefits, leaving Su Li to consider whether joining would be worthwhile.

• Su Li found Beifeng Ge'er dormant on Linghui Star, and Beifeng Ge'er revived and explained that the state was an instinct of the Eternal Clan.
• Beifeng Ge'er said he had completed Su Li's A-rank Soul Technology and asked to return, but Su Li said he had only come back temporarily and still wanted to cooperate.
• Su Li told Beifeng Ge'er he had encountered a colossal organization spanning hundreds of star clusters, and Beifeng Ge'er identified it as the Cosmic Species Alliance.
• Beifeng Ge'er explained that the alliance's founding species was a pure-energy lifeform likely connected to the Order Celestial God, and that members could access resources at a price.
• Su Li questioned whether he needed the alliance's support, then considered Beifeng Ge'er's explanation of its benefits.

After learning about the Cosmic Species Alliance’s resources, technology, and rules, Su Li decided to investigate it and join if Beifeng Ge'er had told him the truth. He finished making two items with Beifeng Ge'er, promised to return him after handling Alliance business, and then checked on Aomola before opening the Shop.

• Su Li questioned Beifeng Ge'er about the Cosmic Species Alliance and decided to consider joining after reaching its territory.
• Beifeng Ge'er gave Su Li his completed technology, and Su Li used fiftyfold Time Acceleration so they could make two things in the laboratory.
• Su Li thanked Beifeng Ge'er and promised to take him back after dealing with the Cosmic Species Alliance, then returned to Aomola's spaceship.
• Su Li told the ship's intelligent hologram to keep watching Aomola and opened the Shop to view an A-rank Mecha (Damaged) and a Triggered Soul Defense System.

Su Li created two A-Class Mecha and a Triggered Soul Defense System before traveling with Aomola to the Cosmic Species Alliance branch base on Great Bright Star. He arrived at the orderly, multi-species base and prepared to begin his business there.

• Su Li created two A-Class Mecha and a Triggered Soul Defense System, then fused the defense system with his consciousness.
• Su Li saw that his Resource Points had fallen sharply after making the items and hoped his trip to the Cosmic Species Alliance would go smoothly.
• Aomola brought Su Li through the Bright Star Cloud toward Great Bright Star, where Su Li learned that the area was the M87 Galaxy known to Earthlings.
• Aomola confirmed his identity with Great Bright Star's guards and received permission to land.
• Su Li descended into the Cosmic Species Alliance branch base's spaceport and observed the many species living and moving about in an orderly fashion.

Su Li and Aomola traveled to the Cosmic Species Alliance’s Trade Hall to arrange the transfer of the Milky Way Galaxy. There, the Alliance detected Su Li’s strength despite his concealment and sent Hall Master Wu to meet him.

• Su Li told Aomola they were going to the Alliance Hall to trade for the Milky Way Galaxy, and Aomola insisted he needed no compensation.
• Su Li reflected on the authority of the strong and resolved to keep growing stronger, while Aomola worried about losing nearly half his assets.
• Su Li and Aomola arrived at the Alliance Hall and entered its teleportation device, selecting the Trade Hall.
• When the Alliance’s greeting system could not identify Su Li, he introduced himself as the Virtual God.
• The system informed Su Li that Hall Master Wu would personally receive him, revealing that the Alliance had detected his strength through his concealment methods.

Su Li met Trading Hall Master Wu and accepted his invitation to drink after arranging a private room for a deal with Aomola. He began the transaction by registering his details with the hall’s trusted intelligence system, No. 001.

• Su Li recognized Hall Master Wu as an A-rank powerhouse and greeted him in the Trading Hall.
• Su Li asked Hall Master Wu to help arrange a deal with Aomola, and Hall Master Wu agreed and invited Su Li for a drink.
• Hall Master Wu led Su Li and Aomola to a quiet room, then left them to conduct their transaction.
• Su Li summoned No. 001 and filled out a registration form, listing himself as a 9.06-million-year-old A+ Superhuman with Dark Energy Manipulation.
• No. 001 accepted Su Li’s information and began processing the transaction.

Su Li completed a deal with Aomola, exchanging ownership of the Milky Way Galaxy for the Xilan Civilization’s Superpower Technology. He discovered the transfer would double his future Resource Point income, then joined Hall Master Wu at his tavern to seek information.

• Su Li gave Aomola the Xilan Civilization’s Superpower Technology and received ownership of the Milky Way Galaxy in return.
• Su Li found that taking ownership had added less than three hundred trillion Resource Points, and concluded Aomola had received half of his earlier mining income.
• Su Li thanked Aomola and left the trading room, while Aomola regretted not trying to earn more of his favor first.
• Hall Master Wu, impressed by Su Li’s A+-rank status and strength, welcomed him and invited him for a drink.
• Su Li and Hall Master Wu traveled to the Dreamland tavern on Great Bright Star, where Su Li planned to probe him for useful information.

Su Li joined Hall Master Wu at a tavern to sample his exotic wine collection while pretending to be an ancient A+-Class lifeform. After drinking the wines, Su Li revealed that he had come out of seclusion to develop several barren star systems.

• Hall Master Wu brought Su Li to his tavern and ordered his entire wine collection to be served.
• Hall Master Wu spent half an hour introducing the unusual and often poisonous wines to Su Li.
• Su Li drank a cup of Wuzhang Water in one gulp, using his Eat talent to absorb its energy and considering whether the wines could help Xia Ke advance.
• Hall Master Wu grew impatient as Su Li continued drinking and asked what he planned to do next.
• Su Li told Hall Master Wu that he had acquired a barren star system through the Trading Hall and planned to develop a few star systems for fun.

Su Li asked Hall Master Wu how to obtain Contribution Points to hire professionals from the Cosmic Species Alliance to develop a star system. Hall Master Wu explained the Alliance’s bounty system and its rewards, and Su Li left open the possibility that he might pursue an A-Class target.

• Su Li agreed to hire the Cosmic Species Alliance to develop a star system but told Hall Master Wu he lacked Contribution Points.
• Hall Master Wu said he could not give Su Li special treatment because Alliance rules were strict and violations could cost him his life.
• Su Li rejected exchanging treasures for Contribution Points, claiming he had nothing valuable to offer.
• Hall Master Wu explained that capturing or killing targets listed on the Alliance’s Bounty Orders earned Contribution Points, with rewards scaling according to strength and status.
• Su Li asked about A-Class targets, and Hall Master Wu said they carried bounties of ten to one hundred billion points but were rarely pursued without a mandatory order.
