Chapter Summaries

Saine discussed the difficulty of transporting powerful beings between time-spaces with Destruction Demon God Locke, who offered to send treasures and teachings to help his family prepare for war. Saine asked whether Locke had any spare Dimension Supreme Treasures, and Locke revealed that he owned only four.

• Saine explained that bringing Locke to Light Universe Time-Space would require enormous effort and depend on the Despair Matriarch, who was currently in seclusion.
• Saine became more interested in studying Kakarot and Vegeta after learning about their power and Saiyan bloodline mysteries.
• Locke offered to help Saine, Hela, Rocky, and the others by sharing Emotion Power teachings and sending powerful Civilization Supreme Treasures.
• Saine asked Locke to lend him a spare Dimension Supreme Treasure to protect Hela and the others.
• Locke said that Dimension Supreme Treasures were rare and revealed that he possessed only four.

Destruction Demon God Locke gave Saine, Rocky, and Hela a Blood Crystal for protection and offered Saine a Dimension Supreme Treasure Bronze Coffin to borrow. Saine agreed to study and use the coffin temporarily, with plans to return it for Lilith once she could refine it.

• Locke explained that his Blood Crystal could protect Saine, Rocky, and Hela to some extent against Level-11 Strong Practitioners and might briefly disrupt a Level-12 Being.
• Locke revealed a Bronze Coffin that he had seized from an Old Zombie and explained that he had originally intended it for Lilith, whose Life Level was not yet high enough to refine it.
• Locke asked Saine whether he could use the Bronze Coffin, and Saine agreed to borrow it and return it to Lilith when the dimensional passage opened.
• Saine recognized the Bronze Coffin’s value for protection and for studying alchemy and Artifact Forging, and Locke began transmitting it and the Blood Crystal through the Mirror of Time-Space.

Saine received the Blood Crystal and Bronze Coffin from Locke across the space-time channel, with help from the Pure World White Lotus. The Bronze Coffin weakened the Pure World White Lotus, and Saine promised Locke he would protect Hela and the others as the story left him preparing to study and wield the treasure.

• Locke powered the space-time channel to send the Blood Crystal and Bronze Coffin to Saine, while Saine and the Pure World White Lotus stabilized the receiving altar.
• The Blood Crystal arrived first, and Saine handed it to Rocky and Hela after sensing the powerful soul pressure within it.
• The Bronze Coffin crossed the channel, and its Death Power withered the Pure World White Lotus's petals and disrupted her aura.
• Saine's Magic Cube replenished his Origin Power, while Locke showed that he could recover his own Source Power even faster.
• Locke asked why Saine wanted another Dimension Supreme Treasure, and Saine replied that he needed it to protect himself and promised to keep Hela and the others safe.
• Locke warned Saine about the Bronze Coffin's lingering Killing Intent and told him he could borrow the Blood Crystal's power in an emergency.

Locke’s supplies reached Saine, including three Civilization Supreme Treasures prepared for Rocky and Hela. After receiving their gifts, Hela asked to lead a Combat Legion in the next war, and Saine agreed while making plans to protect her.

• Saine examined the three treasures Locke sent, including Angel’s Gift, a single-target resurrection treasure meant to protect Rocky and Hela.
• Rocky received silver battle armor combining Light and Destruction powers, with Locke’s Bloodline power sealed inside to help him wield it.
• Hela received the Time-Space Crown, which matched her dragon Bloodline and enhanced her ability to escape danger.
• Hela asked Saine and Locke for permission to lead a Combat Legion in the next war, and they agreed.
• Saine planned to monitor Hela’s battles and arrange support from powerful subordinates to keep her safe.

Locke exchanged treasures and information with Saine and the others, learning about Lisa’s potential and the Wizard Civilization’s prospects. Saine’s insights into time led Locke to question whether the Old Zombie had truly died, leaving the answer unresolved.

• Locke sent Saine and the others a Blood Crystal, a Dimension Supreme Treasure, and three Civilization Supreme Treasures, while promising future gifts for Befu and the Lord of Radiance.
• Saine and Hela told Locke about Lisa and Odin and shared information that helped Locke consider how he might advance beyond Level-12.
• Saine explained that Lisa had stayed in the Material Star Realm because a fated opportunity awaited her, and Locke speculated that she and other senior experts could protect and benefit the Wizard Civilization.
• Locke asked Saine about the Power of Time, and Saine shared insights drawn from his experiences with different timelines and special realms.
• Locke asked whether the Old Zombie had truly died after falling into the River of Time, and Saine wondered if he might still be alive while Locke left the question unanswered.

Locke explained to Saine how difficult it was to resurrect the dead by pulling them from the River of Time, and said only an existence like Great God Pan Gu might have the power to do so. Saine questioned whether Pan Gu actually commanded the Power of Time, and Locke revealed a secret that startled him.

• Locke told Saine that he had been studying time and resurrection in hopes of bringing back fallen loved ones, including Southern Sage Lord Artes, Jos, and Michelle.
• Saine described his past research into Ruined Spacetime, while Locke explained that True Spirit Resurrection through time would require a Civilization Supreme Treasure and a Level-9 or stronger practitioner.
• Saine compared Locke's proposed method with the reincarnations of Duan Po and Duan Ning, then agreed that the Material Star Realm could not withstand such a violation of its rules.
• Locke said that Great God Pan Gu might be the only being capable of performing Time Resurrection and confirmed that Pan Gu's power exceeded his own.
• Saine argued that Pan Gu's command of strength and other Great Daos did not necessarily mean he could resurrect lives from the River of Time, and Locke responded by revealing a secret that changed Saine's expression.

Saine asked Locke about Yang Mei, and Locke revealed that True Person Yang Mei was a surviving ancient Demon God with mastery of time and space who might be needed for a future resurrection. Before their connection ended, Locke hinted that the Wizard Civilization had an older, complicated history; Saine set aside the mystery and turned to studying the Bronze Coffin.

• Saine asked whether Master Saine had heard of Yang Mei in the Immortal Domain, but Saine had no knowledge of him.
• Locke told Saine that Hongjun had revealed Yang Mei was one of the Demon Gods who survived Pan Gu's creation of the world, alongside Hongjun and Luo Hou.
• Locke said Yang Mei was a supreme expert in time and space whose abilities might be needed for a future resurrection.
• As the Time-Space Altar ran out of energy, Locke hinted that the Wizard Civilization's history was not simple before disappearing.
• Saine wondered whether the Wizard Civilization's origins predated the Azeroth Civilization, then chose to focus on the present and study the Bronze Coffin.

After learning that the Five Super Civilizations had uncovered the Darkness Source Civilization’s location and were preparing to destroy it, God Daheitian contacted the Dark Universe Time-Space to request aid. The Dark Universe Time-Space had already spent hundreds of thousands of years preparing to invade the Light Universe Time-Space.

• Saine reflected on the secrets he had learned from Locke while Rocky and Hela focused on the Civilization Supreme Treasures Locke had given them.
• The Five Super Civilizations gathered intelligence from captured Dark Beings and narrowed down the Darkness Source Civilization’s location in the Light Universe Time-Space.
• The Darkness Source Civilization learned that the Five Super Civilizations were encircling its forces and began preparing defenses while seeking aid from the Dark Universe Time-Space.
• God Daheitian contacted a high-level practitioner of the Dark Universe Time-Space through a violet-black Rule Mirror and requested help.
• The Dark Universe Time-Space responded with concern, as it had spent two hundred thousand years preparing an expedition against the Light Universe Time-Space.

The Dark Universe Time-Space planned to use the Darkness Source Civilization to open a stable passage into the Light Universe Time-Space, but the process would take up to a hundred thousand years. As the Five Super Civilizations threatened the Darkness Source Civilization, God Daheitian received a promise of reinforcements without a clear arrival date.

• The chapter explained that the Dark Universe Time-Space expected to establish a stable connection with the Light Universe Time-Space within a hundred thousand years, while Locke’s more optimistic plan for a passage to the Primordial Universe Time-Space had been disrupted.
• The Five Super Civilizations remained confident they could defeat the Darkness Source Civilization and knew little about the Dark Universe Time-Space, while it had learned much about the Light Universe through its civilization’s betrayal.
• God Daheitian urgently requested aid, prompting the Dark Universe Time-Space to promise strong practitioners and high-grade equipment for the Darkness Source Civilization.
• The Darkness Source Civilization prepared to delay the Five Super Civilizations for tens of thousands of years while waiting for reinforcements, and two Powerful Beings told God Daheitian that their arrival would give his civilization a chance to survive.

God Daheitian mobilized the Darkness Source Civilization for an impending war against the allied Five Super Civilizations and tried to recall Lord Tongyou from the exposed Illusory Sea Maze. When Lord Tongyou failed to reply, God Daheitian contacted the civilization’s other ancestor, Gu Mie Sihuo.

• God Daheitian formally launched war mobilization and called on the Level-9-and-above Beings to prepare for the Five Super Civilizations’ attack.
• The chapter explained that the Darkness Source Civilization’s three ancestors had only recently reached Level 11, with Lord Tongyou closest to the Mid-Stage.
• The Five Super Civilizations had uncovered the Darkness Source Civilization’s strongholds in the Illusory Sea Maze, which could later become a bridge and battlefield between the two dimensional planes.
• God Daheitian urged Lord Tongyou to return to the civilization’s rear, but Lord Tongyou sent no reply.
• God Daheitian suppressed his frustration and contacted Gu Mie Sihuo, the civilization’s youngest and most combat-oriented ancestor.

God Daheitian kept Gu Mie Sihuo in reserve as the Five Super Civilizations prepared to attack the Darkness Source Civilization, while reflecting on the civilization’s past and its dependence on Lord Tongyou. He remained worried about their shortage of Level-10 Beings and hoped the war would be delayed until reinforcements from the Dark Universe Time-Space arrived.

• Gu Mie Sihuo asked to attack the Five Super Civilizations’ vanguard, but God Daheitian ordered it to stay in the rear and hold the line.
• God Daheitian recalled how Lord Tongyou had once transported the entire Darkness Source Civilization to the Dimensional Battlefield, where Gu Mie Sihuo broke through to the Supreme Realm and one Supreme-level expert died.
• God Daheitian considered the coming war inevitable and hoped the Darkness Source Civilization could hold out until support arrived from the Dark Universe Time-Space.
• Gu Mie Sihuo obeyed God Daheitian and returned to the rear, while God Daheitian lamented that Lord Tongyou still had not sent word.
• God Daheitian noted that the Darkness Source Civilization had fewer Level-10 Beings than its rivals because resources had been directed toward him, Gu Mie Sihuo, and Lord Tongyou.

The Five Super Civilizations cleared most of Darkness Source Civilization’s forces from the Illusory Sea Maze while preparing for a wider war. Saine reflected on how the Light God Race had risen to power and considered whether Light Universe Time-Space might contain more than the six known Super Civilizations.

• The Five Super Civilizations explored the Illusory Sea Maze and destroyed or captured most Darkness Source Civilization strongholds, though they could not confirm that every enemy force had been removed.
• Saine warned the Five Super Civilizations that Darkness Source Civilization might use the Illusory Sea Maze to bring forces from the darker Higher Dimensional Time-Space into their world.
• The chapter recounted how the Supreme God, the Lord of Infinity, and the Lord of Radiance each contributed to the Light God Race’s rapid rise over nearly a million years.
• Saine considered how many factors, including luck, could determine whether a Top-Level Civilization became a Super Civilization.
• Saine suspected that Light Universe Time-Space might contain more than the six Super Civilizations discovered so far.

The Five Super Civilizations formed a coalition against the Source of Darkness Civilization and began drawing other civilizations into the war. As their forces advanced and divided conquered territory, the Lord of Moonlight proposed a council to coordinate the alliance.

• The Five Super Civilizations agreed to recruit Top-Level Civilizations and Large Worlds to help destroy the Source of Darkness Civilization.
• The Light God Race quickly sent its Angel Legion toward the Illusory Sea Maze and claimed nearly two-fifths of the lost territory and rule convergence points.
• Saine's need for more Rule Nodes to contact Locke made the Light God Race's expansion in the Illusory Sea Maze strategically important.
• The Lord of Moonlight proposed creating a council to coordinate communication among the allied civilizations.
• The Green Vine Civilization, Light God Race, and Water Mirror Civilization supported the proposal, and the Crimson Flame Civilization proceeded despite being unable to veto it.

The Five Super Civilizations prepared to establish a United Council in the Illusory Sea Maze and discussed the powers and hidden strengths each might bring to war against the Darkness Source Civilization. Meanwhile, the Lord of Radiance arrived hoping to contact Locke, but Saine was absorbed in studying Locke’s Bronze Coffin and persuaded Little Tenth to enter it for an experiment.

• The Five Super Civilizations chose the Illusory Sea Maze for their first United Council meeting, where their leaders would discuss the campaign against the Darkness Source Civilization.
• Saine learned that the Crimson Flame Civilization and Water Mirror Civilization had hidden Level-11 Strong Practitioners, while the Light God Race had potential Level-11 power in its Supreme God and merged First Generation Angels.
• The Lord of Radiance arrived in the Illusory Sea Maze with Madam Befu, Duan Ning, and other subordinates, hoping to contact Locke.
• Saine remained in his laboratory researching the Bronze Coffin, a Dimension Supreme Treasure he had obtained from Destroyer Knight Locke.
• Saine reassured Little Tenth and encouraged her to remain inside the Bronze Coffin for his experiment, citing Silver Knight’s recent progress after undergoing a similar test.

Little Tenth gained power from cultivating inside Saine’s Bronze Coffin before Lord of Radiance arrived to discuss contacting Locke. Saine helped Lord of Radiance and Locke begin negotiations between the Light God Race and the Destruction Divine Kingdom, then left to explore the Illusory Sea Maze as powerful forces gathered there.

• Little Tenth assisted Saine’s experiment in the Bronze Coffin and gained substantial Death Power before reluctantly leaving it.
• Lord of Radiance visited Saine with Madam Befu to arrange contact with Locke.
• Saine used Locke’s Blood Crystals and other items to establish a communication altar between the Light God Race and Primordial Universe Time-Space.
• Lord of Radiance and Locke began preliminary discussions about the interests of their civilizations, while Saine and Madam Befu left them to talk.
• Saine surveyed the Illusory Sea Maze, where forces from the five civilizations had gathered and fifteen Level-10 Beings had appeared, and wondered about the two Level-11 practitioners expected to arrive.

Saine met the Lord of Bright Radiance, who offered him rare Light God Race materials and sought his support for opening a path to the Higher Dimensional Plane. With Pure World White Lotus’s help, Saine began trading his surplus creations for rare materials and specimens, and joined a high-level trade fair that might later include the Level-11 Sea Mirror Woman.

• Saine met the Lord of Bright Radiance, who treated him respectfully and gave him high-grade rule materials from the Light God Race.
• The Lord of Bright Radiance revealed that he supported opening a path to the Higher Dimensional Plane, and Saine accepted his gifts while focusing on his research.
• Pure World White Lotus introduced Saine to powerful beings from other civilizations and proposed trading his idle potions, Magic Conductors, and low-grade Civilization Supreme Treasures for needed materials and specimens.
• Saine agreed that exchanging goods with experts of comparable strength could help him obtain rare Rule Materials.
• Saine attended a small-scale trade fair organized by Pure World White Lotus and others, where every participant was at least a Level-8 Peak Dominator and the Level-11 Sea Mirror Woman might later appear.

At the Illusory Sea Maze trade fair, Saine found a special chip offered by the Level-8 Peak earth-element Dominator Fang Yuan and learned it came from the Different Time-Space called Infinite Space. Saine wanted the chip, but Fang Yuan asked for a lotus seed or comparable restorative resource, so Saine proposed another way to trade.

• Saine entered the secure trade fair in the Illusory Sea Maze with Pure World White Lotus and Little Tenth, where experts displayed their goods inside private energy barriers.
• Saine spotted a special chip in the barrier of a Level-8 Peak earth-element Dominator and asked where it came from.
• Fang Yuan explained that he had obtained the chip as spoils after completing dangerous missions in the Different Time-Space called Infinite Space, but could not use it.
• Saine offered to buy the chip, and Fang Yuan requested a lotus seed from Pure World White Lotus or an equivalent restorative life-element resource.
• Saine considered the price and told Fang Yuan that they might trade another way.

Saine traded part of the Root-Touching Rule secret art to Fang Yuan in exchange for a mysterious chip that had caught the Magic Cube and Skynet’s attention. He and the Pure World White Lotus then explored the trade fair’s Rule Nodes, where their immense wealth let them acquire rare materials.

• Saine offered Fang Yuan the Root-Touching Rule secret art as an alternative to Pure World White Lotus seeds, which the injured Level-8 Peak Dominator had wanted for healing.
• Fang Yuan accepted the deal, giving Saine the chip in exchange for a Memory Crystal containing part of the secret art’s principles.
• The Pure World White Lotus asked Saine whether the chip was important, and they discussed the unknown Infinite Space it came from.
• Saine browsed the Rule Nodes and found several rare materials, using his personal wealth to trade for the items he wanted.
• When Saine lacked suitable barter goods, the Pure World White Lotus used her own considerable wealth to buy materials for him.

Saine and Pure World White Lotus traded extensively at the fair, drawing attention as wealthy buyers, before joining the elite trading session. There, Saine met Sea Mirror Woman and spotted Super Saiyan Vegeta, whose goods from the Primordial Universe Time-Space drew keen interest.

• Saine and Pure World White Lotus encountered old acquaintances at the fair, while Crimson Flame Civilization traders initially resisted doing business with him.
• Saine offered increasingly valuable goods for the Crimson Flame Civilization’s rare flames, winning over the Flame Creatures and trading widely with Pure World White Lotus.
• Saine met Sea Mirror Woman, the Level-11 leader of the Water Mirror Civilization, and wondered whether she had brought the Mirror Maze.
• Saine and Pure World White Lotus entered the central trading area, where Lord of Bright Radiance welcomed them and Super Saiyan Vegeta was already present.
• Sea Mirror Woman and Saine showed interest in Vegeta’s goods from the Primordial Universe Time-Space.

At a trading fair for Transcendence Realm practitioners, the Sea Mirror Woman offered a one-time Rule Red Rope and coordinates to a dangerous land that might contain ancient Super Civilization ruins. Saine bought the coordinates, while Vegeta offered Level-10 Being Heart Core Fragments and privately reached an agreement with Saine.

• Divine Venerable Miao Bo traded a Water Element Rules crystal sphere to the Pure World White Lotus for a Wood Element Rule Treasure.
• The Sea Mirror Woman offered a one-time Rule Red Rope in exchange for a Level-10 Being's rule core or fragments, but no one completed the trade.
• The Sea Mirror Woman offered coordinates to a Rule Dangerous Land that might contain ancient Super Civilization ruins, and Saine bought a set.
• Vegeta offered shattered Level-10 Being Heart Core Fragments in exchange for special Life Element rule medicinal fluids to temper his body.
• Vegeta secretly spoke to Saine, who considered his proposal and nodded in agreement.
