Dao Ancestor Hongjun gave Kakarot a jade pill that restored and strengthened him, leaving the battlefield wary of his rising power.

• The Lords of Dimension joined forces to assault the Bewilderment Behemoth until it regained its reason and began retreating.

• Dao Ancestor Hongjun offered Kakarot a jade pill, and Locke approved of Kakarot accepting it.

Kakarot began transforming after consuming Dao Ancestor Hongjun’s jade pellet, while the major factions paused their fighting and Destruction Demon God Locke prepared to leave with Hongjun. The Bewilderment Behemoth blocked their departure over its stolen Chaos Treasure Orb, and Locke denied possessing it after Hongjun silently acknowledged the secret.

• Kakarot’s power began an unprecedented transformation, and he turned his fighting spirit toward the injured Dark Nether Death God as the battlefield fell into a tense lull.
• Salamander Grayke contacted two other Level-12 experts from Bewilderment Time-Space, and the three rushed to the Light Universe Time-Space battlefield.

• Salamander Grayke arrived and secretly told Locke that the Bewilderment Behemoth wanted its Chaos Treasure Orb back.
• Locke asked Hongjun about the orb, received an almost imperceptible nod, and then told Salamander Grayke that he knew nothing of it and did not possess it.

Destruction Demon God Locke refused Salamander Grayke’s mediation, protected Dao Ancestor Hongjun, and prevented Dark Nether Death God’s group from leaving while the Bewilderment Behemoth remained furious. As the battlefield stayed deadlocked and war intensified across the Light Universe Time-Space, Hongjun revealed the Chaos Treasure Orb, causing the Bewilderment Behemoth to halt and a powerful ancient aura to spread.

• Salamander Grayke failed to calm the Bewilderment Behemoth after Locke rejected his attempt to mediate.
• Dark Nether Death God, Darkness Sword Ebony, and Duolie tried to withdraw, but Locke attacked and forced them to remain on the battlefield.
• Dark Nether Death God’s group considered allying with the Bewilderment Behemoth, but its confusion and grudge over their earlier attack made an alliance impossible.
• The major factions remained in a tense stalemate as battles across the Light Universe Time-Space intensified and Locke absorbed the resulting Destruction Rule power.
• Hongjun raised his hand and revealed the Chaos Treasure Orb, making the Bewilderment Behemoth stop as an ancient, oppressive aura swept across the battlefield.

Dao Ancestor Hongjun activated the Chaos Treasure Orb, whose aura of Chaos and Great God Pan Gu frightened the Bewilderment Behemoth into fleeing the battlefield. The other Lords of Dimension coveted the orb, and Destruction Demon God Locke was left to choose Ebony as its first potential target after Dark Nether Death God retreated.

• Destruction Demon God Locke sensed Pan Gu’s familiar aura in the Chaos Treasure Orb and recalled the immense power of Great God Pan Gu.
• The Bewilderment Behemoth reacted in terror to the orb’s power and fled the battlefield, abandoning Salamander Gray Guest and its other followers.

• Destruction Demon God Locke initially considered Dark Nether Death God, but Dark Nether Death God retreated, leaving Ebony closest to them.

Dao Ancestor Hongjun attacked Darkness Sword Ebony with the Chaos Treasure Orb, whose chaos light overwhelmed Ebony’s defenses and pursued him as he fled. Ebony escaped by sacrificing three Rule Avatars belonging to a subordinate, but the Bat Person and his remaining avatars suffered a terrible backlash, leaving Ebony with an ominous feeling.

• Destruction Demon God Locke identified Darkness Sword Ebony as the target, and Dao Ancestor Hongjun joined the attack with the Chaos Treasure Orb.
• The orb’s chaos light melted Ebony’s darkness Rule Barrier and relentlessly tracked him as he tried to escape.
• Dark Nether Death God, Duolie, and the other Lords of Dimension watched Hongjun’s attack and coveted the Chaos Treasure Orb.
• A Level-12 Bat Person used three of his Rule Avatars to shield Ebony, allowing Ebony to break free of the orb’s lock.
• The chaos light erased the three avatars, and the Bat Person and his remaining avatars screamed in agony as an ominous feeling rose in Ebony’s heart.

Dao Ancestor Hongjun’s Chaos Treasure Orb left Ebony’s Level-12 Bat Person dying as Chaos Power eroded his life source, while Ebony’s restorative darkness power only held the damage at bay. As Locke attacked the distracted Ebony, he asked the Despair Matriarch whether the orb could connect them to the Material Star Realm.

• Hongjun’s Chaos strike pierced the Bat Person’s Rule Avatars and caused Chaos Fire to erode his rules and life source.
• The Bat Person begged Ebony for help, and Ebony used darkness-origin power to stabilize him without stopping the Chaos damage.
• Locke’s forces seized Ebony’s distraction and Locke charged at him, hoping to exploit the chance to kill the Bat Person.
• Locke noticed ancient rule auras from the Chaos Treasure Orb and asked the Despair Matriarch whether it could connect them to the Material Star Realm.

The Despair Matriarch admitted she had no clear way to use the Chaos Treasure Orb to reach the Material Star Realm and suggested Locke bring Saine in to study it. On the battlefield, Hongjun and Kakarot cornered the near-defeated Bat Person while Locke and the Despair Matriarch kept Ebony occupied, and Kakarot’s assault left the Bat Person with almost no hope of survival.

• The Despair Matriarch said she could not yet explain how to use the Chaos Treasure Orb to contact the Material Star Realm and proposed that Locke summon Saine to examine it.
• The Limitless Golden Emperor joined the battle near the Dark Nether Death God, watching Hongjun’s strength and the badly injured Bat Person with alarm and relief.
• Locke and the Despair Matriarch pinned Ebony down while Hongjun attacked the Bat Person with a barrage of rule swords.
• At Locke’s order, Kakarot joined Hongjun and smashed the Bat Person’s Rule Avatars one after another with overwhelming force.
• Kakarot struck another of the Bat Person’s true bodies, and even Hongjun looked on in astonishment at the power of his attacks.

Destruction Demon God Locke and the Despair Matriarch kept Darkness Sword Ebony from rescuing his dying subordinate, while Super Saiyan Kakarot battered the Level-12 Bat Person. When the Bat Person tried to flee, Dao Ancestor Hongjun prepared the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation to stop him.

• Locke and the Despair Matriarch pinned Ebony in battle as Kakarot shattered the Bat Person’s Rule Avatars, whose injuries were spreading from Hongjun’s Chaos Rule Light pillar.
• Ebony urged the desperate Bat Person to escape to Darkness Sword Time-Space, promising to seek a way to save him from the Chaos corrosion.
• The Bat Person unleashed his remaining power and sent his surviving Rule True Bodies fleeing in different directions, eluding Kakarot’s attempts to intercept them all.
• Locke prepared to ask the Despair Matriarch to help Kakarot, but Hongjun moved to block the Bat Person’s escape.
• Hongjun split his Jade Sword into four and began forming the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation.

Dao Ancestor Hongjun trapped the Level-12 Bat Person in his Immortal Slaying Sword Formation while Super Saiyan Kakarot destroyed its Rule Avatars. After Hongjun sensed no remaining consciousness on the battlefield, he confirmed the Bat Person’s local avatars had fallen, though he could not tell whether any remained elsewhere.

• Dao Ancestor Hongjun deployed his Rule Jade Swords and Immortal Slaying Sword Formation, sealing the Level-12 Bat Person inside and astonishing the observing Lords of Dimension.
• The Limitless Golden Emperor, impressed by Hongjun’s power, fought the Dark Nether Death God with renewed determination and considered pursuing a breakthrough to Level-13 Mid-Stage.
• Mechanical God Emperor Saine received Madam Befu’s reports about the battle and considered returning to the Light Universe Time-Space.
• Hongjun’s formation restrained the Bat Person’s Rule True Body while Super Saiyan Kakarot smashed its wounded Rule Avatars, and the Bat Person’s remaining bodies were destroyed after several hundred years.
• Hongjun kept the formation active and searched with the Rule Will of the Heavenly Dao until he detected no further fluctuations of the Bat Person’s consciousness on the battlefield.

After the Bat Person lost nearly all his Rule Avatars, Ebony brought his two surviving avatars back to Darkness Sword Time-Space and tried to save them from the Chaos Power’s erosion. His efforts failed to stop the damage, leaving Ebony to choose between losing his Level-12 general and draining the already depleted origin of his realm.

• The Bat Person’s two remaining Rule Avatars escaped Primordial Universe Time-Space through a Dimensional Passage opened by Ebony.
• After they returned to Darkness Sword Time-Space, the Chaos Power continued eroding them even more intensely.
• Ebony realized how powerful the Chaos Treasure Orb’s rule-based attacks were and grew greedy for it.
• Ebony poured Darkness Sword Time-Space’s Origin Power into the Bat Person’s avatars, restoring some energy but failing to halt the Chaos Power.
• Ebony faced the choice of letting the avatars perish or continually spending his realm’s limited origin to keep them alive.

Dao Ancestor Hongjun and Super Saiyan Kakarot destroyed the Level-12 Bat Person’s Rule True Body, while Destruction Demon God Locke taunted Ebony over whether he would save his subordinate’s surviving avatars. Ebony publicly vowed to restore the Bat Person, and Locke was left wary of Hongjun’s Chaos Treasure Orb and the power of Great God Pan Gu.

• Dao Ancestor Hongjun and Super Saiyan Kakarot joined forces to destroy the Level-12 Bat Person’s Rule True Body, and Hongjun withdrew the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation.
• Destruction Demon God Locke and the Despair Matriarch continued to suppress Ebony, preventing him from rescuing the Bat Person during the battle.
• Locke publicly challenged Ebony to spend Darkness Sword Time-Space Origin saving the Bat Person’s few surviving Rule Avatars.
• Ebony declared that he would do everything in his power to save the Bat Person and restore him to his prime.
• Locke suspected that Ebony might abandon the Bat Person if saving him threatened Ebony’s interests or the foundation of Darkness Sword Time-Space.
• Locke reflected on the Chaos Treasure Orb’s corrosive power and sensed Great God Pan Gu’s immense aura within it.

After Dao Ancestor Hongjun and Kakarot helped cripple the Level-12 Bat Person, Ebony withdrew rather than continue fighting Destruction Demon God Locke's faction. The battlefield melee ended for the moment, leaving Locke eager to catch up with Hongjun and discuss communication between higher and lower dimensions.

• Dao Ancestor Hongjun and Kakarot joined forces to destroy most of the Level-12 Bat Person's Rule Avatars and seize its two Dimension Supreme Treasures.
• Kakarot and Hongjun arrived at Locke's battlefield, further undermining Ebony's confidence after the Darkness Sword Organization had paid a heavy price to preserve the Bat Person's backup Rule True Bodies.
• Ebony abandoned the fight, facing the loss of a powerful subordinate and the resulting damage to the Darkness Sword Organization's territory and strategic plans.
• Locke chose not to pursue Ebony because his own and Kakarot's power had been depleted, and they could not reliably threaten the Level-13 Lord of Dimension.
• As the gathered Lords of Dimensional Planes began to leave, Locke looked forward to speaking with Hongjun about their experiences and opening communication between higher and lower dimensions.
