Locke moved the Crystal Tide Wrath Beast into Paradise Lost, then led the Destruction Divine Kingdom’s invasion of the Darkness Sword Space. Ebony’s pleas brought the Source-Devouring forces and several outside powers into the war, leaving Locke and Saine facing an expanding coalition as more allies began to arrive.

• Locke and Saine stabilized the Crystal Tide Wrath Beast’s connections, guided it through the Bronze Gate, and helped it develop rudimentary consciousness.
• Locke brought the beast and his legions into Primordial Universe Time-Space and attacked Ebony’s Dark Sword Formation, forcing the Darkness Sword Organization to abandon strongholds and transport routes.
• The Destruction Legion advanced into the Darkness Sword Space, capturing facilities and territory while Ebony struggled to secure immediate military support.
• Ebony enlisted the Source-Devouring Progenitor, whose forces entered the war and established garrisons and passageways in Ebony’s territory.
• The World-Devouring Emperor Monarch joined Ebony against Locke, while Saine deployed the God of Machines and helped seize the Energy-Supply Starfield.
• Ebony secured the arrival of the Myriad Manifestations Eternal Lord, the Myriad Law Thunder Emperor, and the Paper Figure Dimension Lord, who helped reinforce his defenses against Locke and Saine.
• Saine fought the Myriad Law Thunder Emperor and the World-Devouring Emperor Monarch as Locke pressed his assault on Ebony and the Myriad Manifestations Eternal Lord.
• Ebony arranged further aid from the Dark Nether Death God, Duolie, the Lord of Eternal Day, and the Limitless Golden Emperor, while Saine prepared routes for arriving allies.

Saine and his allies forced the Source-Devouring forces out of Darkness Sword Time-Space, then discovered the Flame Civilization and its ties to the Lost World Alliance. Saine agreed to rescue endangered civilizations in exchange for their records and resources, and the arc ended as the evacuation of Remnant Star faced the arrival of the Withered-Realm Emperor Monarch.

• The Lord of Eternal Day and the Limitless Golden Emperor fought the Myriad Law Thunder Emperor and Paper Figure Dimension Lord while Locke and Saine battled Ebony’s allies across the warfront.
• Saine’s forces seized territory as Ebony discovered that Source-Devouring Mother Nests were draining Darkness Sword Time-Space, prompting both sides to negotiate a ceasefire and compensation.
• Saine, Locke, and Ebony’s forces attacked the Mother Nests, drove back the World-Devouring Emperor Monarch, and forced the Source-Devouring legions to withdraw through the Main Passage.
• Saine found a faint response among the captured Mother Nest’s coordinates and helped the Flame Civilization’s damaged Everbright Ark escape through a passage while the World-Hunting Ancient Emperor pursued it.
• Miluo explained the destruction of Suiming Time-Space and the Lost World Alliance, and Saine offered the Flame Civilization limited shelter in exchange for records and cooperation.
• After the Withered-Realm Emperor Monarch attacked the Alliance, Saine agreed to rescue the Remnant Star Civilization in return for its records, resources, and service, and Atar accepted his conditions.
• Saine led the Mechanical Legions to Remnant Star Time-Space and opened an evacuation route as Source-Devouring forces attacked the survivors.
• The Mechanical Legion and Lost World Alliance evacuated survivors while Bing Xin fought the Vein-Eroding Ancient Emperor and Miluo blocked the World-Hunting Ancient Emperor, but seven world civilizations remained behind when the Withered-Realm Emperor Monarch arrived.
