• Secluded Bamboo Supreme asked how Saine knew about higher-dimensional time-spaces, and Saine explained that his research had connected many threads of Truth.
• Saine said he wanted to visit Decay Time-Space someday, and Secluded Bamboo Supreme left the Source Tracing Stone with him before departing.

The Destruction Spring advanced to Level-8 Peak, left five Destruction Lotus Seeds for Saine, and headed for the Dimensional Battlefield to seek fresh Destruction Power. Soon after, Demon Ancestor Lei Ji fell in the Central Battlefield after Serpent Empress Cassio Peiya and two allied Level-8 Peak Dominators joined forces against him.

• The Destruction Spring advanced to Level-8 Peak, transformed its Black Lotus of Destruction, and flew toward the frontlines of the Dimensional Battlefield.

• Demon Ancestor Lei Ji fought in the Central Battlefield as Serpent Empress Cassio Peiya, Tianhong Eagle, and the Meteor Seahorse attacked him.
• Cassio Peiya’s Eye of Sealing countered Demon Ancestor Lei Ji, and the three Level-8 Peak Dominators killed him.

The Serpent Empress, Tianhong Eagle, and Meteor Seahorse killed Demon Ancestor Lei Ji, dealing a major blow to the Evil Tide Civilization’s counteroffensive in the central war zone. Before he died, Lei Ji destroyed his body and the Sky Thunder Shuttle, unleashing a vast lightning storm across the Dimensional Battlefield.

• The Serpent Empress used the Petrification Seal Eye and Poisonous Snake Embrace to immobilize and weaken Demon Ancestor Lei Ji, while Tianhong Eagle pursued him with the Swift Blade.
• Meteor Seahorse struck the fleeing Lei Ji through the Evil Tide Heart with the Sea Emperor Spear, and Lei Ji detonated his Dominator True Body.
• Lei Ji used the true spirit within the Sky Thunder Shuttle to activate its Source Power, tearing the Civilization Supreme Treasure apart from within.
• The destruction of Lei Ji and the Sky Thunder Shuttle unleashed a powerful storm of lightning that observers beyond the Dimensional Battlefield also noticed.

After Demon Ancestor Lei Ji died and the Evil Tide Civilization’s request for aid was refused, Saine completed the Destruction Rod for Wukong. Its birth triggered an unusual white Law Lightning, leaving Saine puzzled by the peaceful aura it carried.

• Demon Ancestor Lei Ji destroyed his Dominator Soul and the Sky Thunder Shuttle with his final act, but the Decayed Civilization seized the ruined treasure.
• The Evil Tide Civilization asked Saine and the Blade Empress for help, but both refused while Saine continued his experiments and the Blade Empress guarded him.
• The Destruction Spring joined the front lines and received the Evil Tide Civilization’s support while pursuing his goal of helping the Myriad Springs World Cluster.
• Saine completed Wukong’s Destruction Rod after years of refining it, and white Law Lightning struck near his Laboratory Base.
• Saine questioned why the lightning announcing the Destruction Rod’s birth carried a peaceful aura instead of the origin of Destruction Power.

Saine observed the Destruction Rod’s unusual, balanced power after its creation, and Wukong tested the weapon before returning to the frontline. Saine then began researching the Heavenly Planet Destroyer Battleship while Lisa remained to guard his laboratory.

• Saine found that the Destruction Rod’s creation produced impartial Law Lightning instead of the expected Destruction Tide.
• Wukong returned from the frontline and asked Saine to let him try the newly forged Destruction Rod.
• Wukong’s strike with the rod annihilated a distant mountain range and revealed a familiar quality in the weapon.
• Lisa told Saine and Wukong that she had long sensed a familiar, close gaze watching her in the Flowing Light Retrospective World.
• Saine sent Wukong back to the frontline to test his equipment and asked Lisa to guard the laboratory.
• Saine returned to his Laboratory Base complex and began analyzing the Heavenly Planet Destroyer Battleship.

Saine coordinated scientists from several civilizations to accelerate research into the Heavenly Planet Destroyer Battleship while the Dimensional Battlefield’s war intensified. The Evil Tide Civilization gained a new Demon Ancestor, the Decayed Civilization gained a Level-8 Peak Dominator, and the Red-Clothed Little Girl retreated to demand a Civilization Supreme Treasure from Saine.

• Saine brought Mechanical True Spirits, Galente Federation scientists, Norman Federation scientists, and other research teams to the Flowing Light Retrospective World to study the Heavenly Planet Destroyer Battleship.
• Demon Emperor Kailute advanced to Level-8 Peak, became a Demon Ancestor, and led the Evil Tide Civilization’s forces in an attack.

• Celestial Venerable Han arrived, stopped the Evil Tide Army's rout, and used the Sky Imprisoning Finger against the Star Mang Nightmare Python.

Han Li fought the Level-8 Peak Star Mang Nightmare Python and appeared to gain the upper hand, while Saine’s allies arrived in the Flowing Light Retrospective World to support his work and prepare for the war. Several thousand years later, Saine still had not finished analyzing the Heavenly Planet Destroyer Battleship, and more high-level fighters had died on the front lines.

• Han Li used the Immortal Domain’s Sword Dao and Ten Thousand Swords Return to Origin to attack the Star Mang Nightmare Python and its billions of mad pythons.

• Saine said his analysis of the Heavenly Planet Destroyer Battleship was nearly complete, but several thousand years passed without him finishing it.
• More high-level experts died on both sides of the Dimensional Hegemony, including reinforcements from the Buddhism Sect.

Saine learned that Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva and other Immortal Domain experts had fallen in the Dimensional War. As Evil Tide Civilization killed Decayed Civilization’s Re-Judicator Su and claimed his treasure, Decayed fighters nearly killed Six-Winged Demon Ancestor, leaving both sides weakened.

• Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, Fei Peng, a Demon Saint, and an Intercept Sect Saint fell in the Dimensional Battlefield, while the fate of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva’s True Spirit Light remained unknown.

• Master Naige'er regretted that Su’s body had been carved into pieces, while Evil Tide Civilization seized Su’s Heavy Wall Set and gave it to Demon Ancestor Kailute.
• Mandara and other Decayed Dominators severely wounded Six-Winged Demon Ancestor, who escaped with less than two percent of his Eternal Soul remaining.

Ten thousand years after the first ultimate battle, the war on the World Battlefield of Time Retracing had shifted in the Evil Tide Civilization’s favor, while Saine’s study of the Heavenly Planet Destroyer Battleship neared its limit. The Six-Winged Demon Ancestor remained on the battlefield despite expecting to die there, and Saine avoided tampering with time-space rules.

• The Six-Winged Demon Ancestor rejected the chance to recuperate in the Material Star Realm and chose to remain on the World Battlefield of Time Retracing, prepared to sacrifice himself if necessary.
• Ten thousand years passed on the battlefield while only a few hundred years passed in the Material Star Realm, and the God of Destruction Zanding and the Darkness God continued fighting.
• The Evil Tide Civilization’s territory grew from less than a third to 53% of the Flowing Light Retrospective World, while the Decayed Civilization’s share fell to 47%.
• Saine’s analysis of the Heavenly Planet Destroyer Battleship reached 86%, near the limit his team could decipher without the Zeus Skelton Empire’s top scientists.
• Saine rejected the idea of opening another timeline to help the surviving Ai Youlan Butterfly Civilization descendants find their parent civilization, wary of violating time-space rules.
• The Overseers Ming and Su stayed out of the war and watched from a safe distance.

Saine awakened the Heavenly Planet Destroyer Battleship after years of analysis and considered how to incorporate it, its cannons, and the Source Energy City into his God of Machines Arcana. The chapter also revealed his progress building Source Energy Sub-Cities, transforming the Mechanical Dragon Roar Demon Ancestor, resurrecting Robert, and studying how to create a civilization-wide resurrection treasure.

• Saine used the Magic Cube to awaken the damaged Heavenly Planet Destroyer Battleship, but sustaining its operation required enormous energy.
• Saine noted that nine Source Energy Sub-Cities were complete, with seven passing inspection, and planned to build the next batch faster now that his battleship analysis was nearly finished.
• Saine considered integrating the Heavenly Planet Destroyer Battleship and possibly its cannon and the Endless Light Launch Device into his God of Machines Arcana, while postponing the larger project until he had more Source Energy Sub-Cities.

• Saine resurrected Robert as a human and returned him with Danger Wanderer to the World Battlefield of Time Retracing, after secretly testing the Wizard Civilization's Gate of Resurrection.
• Saine continued researching resurrection with the long-term goal of creating a Civilization Supreme Treasure that could revive beings across all levels.

Saine fused the Heavenly Planet Destroyer Battleship, its cannon, and the Endless Light Launch Device into his God of Machines, pushing his power toward the Level-8 Peak. The Magic Cube transformed beyond the grade of ordinary Civilization Supreme Treasures as Saine’s God of Machines began a further evolution.

• Saine decided to fuse part of the Heavenly Planet Destroyer Battleship into his God of Machines rather than wait for the twenty-three Source Energy Sub-Cities.
• Saine fused the Heavenly Planet Destroyer Cannon and the Endless Light Launch Device into his true body, analyzing the Endless Crystal and discovering the Heavenly Core.

• Saine’s God of Machines devoured and fused with the Heavenly Planet Destroyer Battleship, beginning another transformation alongside Saine.

The Enlightenment Prophet attacked Saine to seize the golden Magic Cube as Saine’s power was transforming. The Blade Empress and the allied Dominators tried to stop him, but the Undying Supreme appeared in time and blocked his attack.

• The Enlightenment Prophet rushed toward Saine and the Magic Cube, intent on stealing the treasure.
• Blade Queen Lisa intercepted him with the Blade of Time and Space, but her weapon broke and he blasted her away.

• The Undying Supreme suddenly appeared in front of Saine, revealing that he could selectively release power despite his remaining seals.
• The Undying Supreme blocked the Enlightenment Prophet’s attack with his right hand.

The Undying Supreme stopped the Enlightenment Prophet from reaching Saine, allowing the surrounding Dominators to attack while Saine continued his transformation. As Saine’s weapons came online, he aimed them at the trapped Prophet.

• The Undying Supreme blocked the Enlightenment Prophet and held him in place, revealing strength that matched the Prophet’s.
• Blade Queen Lisa, Galaxy Star Safina, Di'ersi Jia, and other Dominators attacked the Enlightenment Prophet from behind.
• The Undying Supreme’s arrival prevented Mechanical Element Dominators from self-destructing to stop the Prophet.
• Saine’s God of Machines activated Endless Light and the Heavenly Planet Destroyer Cannon, targeting the Enlightenment Prophet.

Saine unleashed three overwhelming Rule strikes at the Enlightenment Prophet, whose predictions revealed Saine as his true Fated Nemesis. The beams pierced the Enlightenment Prophet and the Undying Supreme, while the Mist and Haze Demon Ancestor rescued the Undying Supreme; the Enlightenment Prophet remained trapped in the bombardment and tried to escape by shouting, “Shed!”

• Saine had the Light of Wisdom replicate the Heavenly Planet Destroyer Cannon’s Piercing Strike, forming three beams aimed at the Enlightenment Prophet.
• The Enlightenment Prophet foresaw Saine as his Fated Nemesis before the three Rule strikes swallowed him.
• Saine warned his allies to scatter, and the Undying Supreme stayed behind to pin down the Enlightenment Prophet.
• The beams pierced both the Enlightenment Prophet and the Undying Supreme, but the Mist and Haze Demon Ancestor used the Time-Space Crystal Diamond to transfer the Undying Supreme out of the strike zone.
• The Mist and Haze Demon Ancestor fled, while the Enlightenment Prophet endured the continuing barrage and shouted, “Shed!”

Saine’s Triple Rule Energy Torrent wounded Enlightenment Prophet and drove him from the battlefield while Saine completed his transformation. The Magic Cube reached Golden Legend, and Saine advanced to Level-8 Peak.

• The Magic Cube transformed into Golden Legend, and Saine’s life level rose as his grasp of power and rules became purer.
• Saine completed his advancement to Level-8 Peak.

Saine reached Level-8 Peak while his fusion with the New God of Machines continued, and the war carried on without an immediate change at the front. Elsewhere, Nasi Xiu and Pink Butterfly found a Time Worm in a deep-blue time-space wormhole, leaving Nasi Xiu astonished.

• Saine completed his breakthrough to Level-8 Peak as the New God of Machines continued transforming beneath him.
• Yin returned to the frontlines with Rong Yue Cluster, while the Red-Clothed Little Girl returned to the Flowing Light Retrospective World and waited for Saine to forge her equipment.
• Nasi Xiu and Pink Butterfly explored another time-space wormhole deep in the Flowing Light Retrospective World after searching hundreds of others for a Time Worm.
• Pink Butterfly sensed a Time Worm, and a colorful, one-horned bug crawled out of a deep-blue rule membrane as Nasi Xiu watched in surprise.

Nasi Xiu tried to catch a Time Worm, but its power slowed time around him and it escaped through a blue rules light membrane. When he pursued it, he vanished as well, and the Pink Butterfly followed him into the wormhole.

• Nasi Xiu saw the Time Worm and prepared to trap it with the Four Swords of Zhuxian and his Treasure Gourd.
• The Pink Butterfly warned Nasi Xiu not to approach, but he lunged at the Time Worm anyway.
• The Time Worm slowed time around Nasi Xiu, then sniffed him and his Treasure Gourd before crawling toward the blue rules light membrane.
• As Nasi Xiu regained control and called after the departing Time Worm, colorful Time-Space Power flashed and both the worm and Nasi Xiu disappeared.
• The Pink Butterfly rushed through the still-open blue rules light membrane after Nasi Xiu, and the membrane then dispersed.

After grabbing a Time Worm’s membrane, Nasi Xiu emerged thirteen million years in the past, stranded far from his own time. He rescued a snake-haired woman named Kassio in the Viliu Star Territory, then reacted in shock when she introduced herself.

• Nasi Xiu woke in a strange spacetime with the Time Worm’s membrane in his hand and used the Four Swords of Zhuxian to return to the Material Star Realm.
• The membrane’s information revealed that Nasi Xiu had arrived thirteen million years in the past, leaving him unable to return to his own time through the Flowing Light Retrospective World.
• Nasi Xiu heard a woman’s cry and flew toward it, hoping to learn where he had landed.
• Nasi Xiu found Kassio, a Level-5 snake-haired woman being attacked by four Astral Realm Beings, and killed her attackers with the Four Swords of Zhuxian.
• Kassio told Nasi Xiu that they were in the Viliu Star Territory and introduced herself, making him jerk in midair in shock.

After a thousand years of recovery, Saine completed the New God of Machines, whose power could reach the late Half-Level-9 stage when fused with him. He stored the machine in the Magic Cube and returned to his base to review construction and the Mechanical Civilization’s need for greater creativity.

• Cassio Peiya worried that strange memories appearing in her mind were the result of a curse or Mystic System attack, while weighing which faction to support as the Decayed Civilization divided.
• Saine completed his Level-8 Peak breakthrough and fused with the New God of Machines, giving the machine Half-Level-9 combat power on its own.
• Saine stored the God of Machines in his Magic Cube so hundreds of millions of Mechanical Creatures could learn to operate it while its components were refined.
• Saine returned to his fortress base, where he reviewed the repairs from the battle with Saliya and the construction of the Source Energy City.
