Chapter Summaries

The Five Super Civilizations prepared a decapitation operation deep in the Darkness Source Civilization’s territory, assembling their strongest forces and arranging covert teleportation and retreat support. As the operation neared, the Lord of Infinity’s growing strength and the Water Ice Holy Venerable’s readiness raised expectations for the coming battle.

• The Light God Race dispatched all five First Generation Angels for the operation, while the Crimson Flame Civilization also committed its forces.
• The Moonlight Goddess used the Moonlight Treasure Box to arrange covert transport and promised to secure the legions’ retreat, but chose not to join the attack herself.
• The Green Vine Civilization sent Falandun, its strongest contemporary Sky Lantern Being, while its rooted Level-11 Jade Vine Tree could not take part.
• Falandun recognized that the Lord of Infinity had surpassed him after growing stronger through repeated battles, while Vegeta remained away on a mission in the Illusory Sea Maze.
• The Water Mirror Civilization sent the Water Ice Holy Venerable, who brought a Dimension Supreme Treasure and appeared prepared to fight at full strength.

Saine watched the Light God Race and four allied Super Civilizations begin their decapitation assault on the Darkness Source Civilization while considering the hidden power of the Crimson Flame Civilization and the mysteries of the Creation God. The Moonlight Goddess teleported the allied legions into the enemy heartland, where the five First Generation Angels prepared to fight together.

• Saine anticipated the Darkness Source Civilization’s valuable materials and reflected on his need for negative-attribute research materials.
• The Crimson Flame Civilization revealed the Level-11 Essence of Departing Fire, and Lord of Radiance suggested that the civilization might possess even greater hidden reserves.

• Michael, Lucifer, Gabriel, Raphael, and Solent appeared with the Light God Race Legion and prepared to combine their powers, with Lucifer’s essence identified as freedom.

The Light God Race’s Angel Legions invaded the heart of the Darkness Source Civilization, where the five First Generation Angels fused into a 108-wing Fusion Angel with Level-11 Mid-Stage Combat Power. Their advance forced the Darkness Source Civilization to mobilize its forces and Great Black Heaven to call for reinforcements.

• Hundreds of millions of angels formed layered Angel Battle Formations as the five First Generation Angels strengthened them with their Origin Rules power.
• A Level-9 Light Angel, the Blood Angel Legion, and the Fallen Angel Legion led the Angel Army as Michael, Lucifer, Gabriel the Death Angel, Angel Raphael, and Army Angel Solent spoke their rule oaths.
• The five First Generation Angels fused into the 108-Wing Fusion Archangel, whose light drove back the Darkness Source Civilization’s Dark Energy and burned low-level creatures to ashes.
• The Essence of Departing Fire recognized the Fusion Angel’s strength, while Water Ice Holy Venerable understood that Fallen Angel Lucifer had only pretended to leave the Light God Race.
• The Darkness Source Civilization activated its defenses and sent combat legions and war platforms toward the invading angels.
• Great Black Heaven sensed the danger and ordered all Level-10 Combat Power from nearby star zones to reinforce him.

The Five Super Civilizations launched a decapitation strike into the Darkness Source Civilization’s core territory and rapidly overwhelmed its defenses. Saine watched the battles from the Illusory Sea Maze while Gongsun Wudi joined him, carrying a Destruction Talisman sent by Locke.

• The Light God Race, Crimson Flame Civilization, and Water Mirror Civilization led the assault, with Water Ice Holy Venerable wielding the Dimension Supreme Treasure Heavenly Water.
• Falandun and the Green Vine Civilization supported the Water Mirror Civilization, while the Moonlight Civilization contributed its legions and the Moonlight Goddess’s Moonlight Treasure Box.
• The allied forces crushed the Darkness Source Civilization’s defenses, and Great Black Heaven’s response faltered as Dark Beings and reinforcements lost morale and fled or fought in desperation.
• Saine observed the fighting through a Time-Space Crystal, studying the Light God Race’s merged First Generation Angels and monitoring the siege of Gu Mie Sihuo, which the Lord of Infinity had joined.
• Gongsun Wudi, whose strength had reached Level-8 Peak, stayed with Saine and carried a Destruction Talisman Locke had sent to protect her.

Saine asked Gongsun Wudi about the New Tianming Empire’s progress and told her that Locke would send advanced knowledge about destiny-based imperial dynasties. When Gongsun Wudi asked whether her father and brother could be resurrected, Saine explained that their annihilated true spirits made it impossible for him now, though he was studying a method that might one day bring the dead back from the River of Time.

• Saine asked Gongsun Wudi about the New Tianming Empire, and she described its growing resources, military strength, and alliances with Zi You, Little Tenth, and Rose.
• Saine told Gongsun Wudi that Locke planned to send knowledge on Imperial Destiny and Dragon Qi to help develop her empire.
• Gongsun Wudi recalled her father Gongsun Xuance’s stories about fighting alongside Locke and asked Saine whether he could resurrect her father and brother.
• Saine explained that Gongsun Xuance and her brother’s true spirits had been annihilated, but said Locke had described a possible way to resurrect the dead from the River of Time.

Gongsun Wudi accepted Saine’s promise of a future visit to the Primordial Universe Time-Space, then watched the war against the Darkness Source Civilization. In the battle’s fiercest frontline, the Crimson Flame Civilization’s Level-11 fighters pressured Gu Mie Sihuo while the Supreme God held back.

• Saine reassured Gongsun Wudi that he could bring departed acquaintances back from the River of Time and hinted at a future trip to the Primordial Universe Time-Space.
• Gongsun Wudi agreed to visit, then turned her attention to the battlefield in the heartland of the Darkness Source Civilization Star Sector.
• The five Super Civilizations and their allies fought the Darkness Source Civilization as the Dark Universe Time-Space supplied it and Locke supported Saine from the Primordial Universe Time-Space.
• The Crimson Flame Civilization intensified its siege of Gu Mie Sihuo, whose battle with Level-11 Strong Practitioners shattered spatial barriers and created dangerous Rule Rifts.
• The Crimson Flame Fire God and the Fire Phoenix led the assault on Gu Mie Sihuo, while the Supreme God used the Power of Light from a distance and avoided risking himself.

The allied civilizations' internal rivalries and competing interests prevented them from delivering a fatal blow to Gu Mie Sihuo, while the Light God Race focused on its own gains and the Lord of Infinity's growth. After a secret meeting among their representatives, Saine concluded that the war would drag on and Gu Mie Sihuo would not fall easily.

• The Lord of Infinity repeatedly charged into Gu Mie Sihuo's attacks, using the battle to pursue a breakthrough while the Supreme God supported him with the Revelation Record.
• Gu Mie Sihuo unleashed black flames against his attackers and sought to devour the Sacred Flame and Nirvana Fire, but the Mirror Maze cut him off from reinforcements.
• The Sea Mirror Woman's Mirror Maze disrupted Crimson Flame Civilization's attacks and caused its casualties, prompting clashes that the Jade Vine Tree and Moonlight Civilization helped defuse.
• The Supreme God prioritized the Lord of Infinity's training and the Light God Race's spoils rather than helping Crimson Flame Civilization kill Gu Mie Sihuo.
• Divine Venerable Miao Bo, Saine, and the Pure World White Lotus reached unspoken agreements in a secret meeting, and Saine said the war would not end soon and Gu Mie Sihuo would not fall easily.

Saine studied the Dimension Supreme Treasures on the battlefields between the Crimson Flame and Water Mirror Civilizations, focusing on how the Sea Mirror Woman’s Mirror Maze might transform his Magic Cube. Meanwhile, his Mechanical Civilization prospered through the war, and the chapter left it stronger than before.

• Saine watched the fierce fighting outside the Darkness Source Star Zone and noted that the Light God Race, Green Vine Civilization, and Moonlight Civilization benefited from the Crimson Flame and Water Mirror Civilizations holding each other in check.
• Saine studied the Revelation Record and Sacred Flame, comparing the Supreme God’s prophetic awareness with his own calculations and recognizing the Sacred Flame’s greater power and deep origins.
• Saine focused on the Sea Mirror Woman’s Mirror Maze, whose self-contained space and complete-rule worlds reminded him of his Magic Cube and its growing Mechanical Planets.
• Saine considered the Sea Mirror Woman’s unsold Rule Red Thread and concluded that Locke might have been able to uncover its mysteries through his command of Emotion Rules.
• Saine’s forces, including Silver Knight, Little White, Madam Befu, and the Mechanical Angels led by Fumila and Icarus, fought on the front lines alongside Saphir.
• Saine’s Mechanical Civilization gained abundant resources from the war and rapidly increased its overall strength.

Saine reflected on the Mechanical Civilization’s growth and the mounting losses in the war against the Darkness Source Civilization. A sudden disturbance in the Illusory Sea Maze led him to suspect that Lord Tongyou had connected with Dark Universe Time-Space.

• Saine considered how the Mechanical Civilization’s ability to replicate rapidly strengthened his power alongside his research in the Illusory Sea Maze.
• Great Black Heaven retreated toward the rear of the Darkness Source Civilization while preserving special time-space beacon altars from Dark Universe Time-Space.
• Over a thousand years of fighting left five Level-10 Beings, twelve Level-9 Strong Practitioners, and thousands of Level-7 and Level-8 Dominators dead; Gu Mie Sihuo killed a Level-10 Flame Giant.
• Twelve hundred years after the Decapitation Plan began, Saine sensed a time-space disturbance in the Illusory Sea Maze and recognized Lord Tongyou’s presence.
• Saine contacted Super Saiyan Vegeta, the Lord of Radiance, and Storm Dragon Balhaink, then wondered whether Lord Tongyou had opened a connection to Dark Universe Time-Space.

Saine and the Despair Matriarch discussed the Light Universe Time-Space’s preparations to connect with the Primordial Universe Time-Space as the Dark Universe’s threat grew. After a disturbance appeared in the Illusory Sea Maze, Vegeta went to investigate while the Lord of Radiance wondered which Destruction Divine Kingdom expert might arrive.

• Saine contacted the Despair Matriarch after detecting a disturbance in the Illusory Sea Maze, and she said Locke’s special time-space crystal could soon complete their connection with the Primordial Universe Time-Space.
• Saine considered the strength the Light Universe’s Homeland Civilizations had yet to reveal and expected them to help resist a Dark Universe invasion.
• Saine sent Super Saiyan Vegeta and his elite Saiyan Legion to investigate the Land of Rules, while he kept Storm Dragon Balhaink beside him.
• The Lord of Radiance went to the Light God Race’s main base in the Illusory Sea Maze and wondered whether the arriving Destruction Divine Kingdom expert would be that “Old Ghost.”

Saine and the others witnessed Dark Universe Time-Space establish a stable connection with Light Universe Time-Space, while Vegeta investigated the Illusory Sea Maze and the Light God Race alerted the other Super Civilizations. The chapter left Great Black Heaven preparing to receive Dark Universe reinforcements on the battlefield, as the Five Super Civilizations realized the danger.

• Storm Dragon Balhaink sensed that two Level-10 Beings and a Level-11 Being had descended from Dark Universe Time-Space.
• Saine sensed deep changes in the rules of the Illusory Sea Maze and Light Universe Time-Space as the cross-dimensional channel was established.
• Vegeta and the others entered the depths of the Illusory Sea Maze, and Lord of Radiance alerted the leaders of the other four Super Civilizations.
• Great Black Heaven sensed Lord Tongyou's success and linked black rule threads to the Rule Altars he had protected.
• Great Black Heaven's altars transformed as they absorbed battle deaths and prepared to bring in Dark Universe reinforcements, while the Five Super Civilizations feared the worst.

Great Black Heaven activated two intact teleportation arrays, beginning the descent of two Level-11 experts from Dark Universe Time-Space onto the Darkness Source Civilization battlefield. Water Ice Holy Venerable, the Essence of Departing Fire, and the Fusion Archangel moved to stop them as Great Black Heaven resolved to hold out until reinforcements arrived.

• Great Black Heaven activated the time-space summoning arrays beneath his Desperate Black Curtain, and two Level-11 power auras began to emerge.
• The Essence of Departing Fire warned that the arriving experts had to be stopped, while Water Ice Holy Venerable sensed that one was at least Level-11 Mid-Stage.
• Water Ice Holy Venerable, the Essence of Departing Fire, and the Fusion Archangel agreed to intensify their assault on Darkness Source Civilization's heartland.
• The Five Super Civilizations continued attacking as Darkness Source Civilization's territory shrank to less than one-sixth of its former peak.
• Great Black Heaven decided that Darkness Source Civilization had to endure until Dark Universe Time-Space's experts and Cross-Dimensional Legion arrived, and he recognized that Lord Tongyou's actions had served their civilization's survival.

The Five Super Civilizations recognized that the Illusory Sea Maze and Lord Tongyou’s cross-dimensional formation were central to the war, while Saine and the Light God Race allowed the conflict to escalate for their own ends. Vegeta reached the Time-Space Altar and encountered newly arrived Dark Universe beings, including an old Level-11 monster still caught at the passage entrance.

• Great Black Heaven used the Desperate Black Curtain to shield the Darkness Source Civilization’s Cross-Dimensional Teleportation Arrays and fought to delay the Five Super Civilizations.
• Saine realized that the Illusory Sea Maze was the deeper cause of the dimensional war, but he and the Light God Race accepted the danger because they wanted access to Dark Universe Time-Space.
• The Five Super Civilizations dispatched forces to investigate the Illusory Sea Maze and raised Lord Tongyou’s priority on their kill list above Gu Mie Sihuo’s and Great Black Heaven’s.
• Vegeta led an elite Saiyan Legion through the Time-Space Altar and confirmed that Dark Universe Time-Space had opened a Cross-Dimensional Channel.
• Vegeta saw two newly descended Level-10 Beings and an old Level-11 monster stuck at the entrance, who looked at him with disdain.

Vegeta led five million Saiyans in the first major assault against the Dark Universe forces, striking the Level-11 old man guarding the cross-dimensional channel. After landing a powerful punch, he withdrew with his legion and headed toward another battlefield, wary of the immense forces still emerging from the channel.

• Vegeta transformed into a Super Saiyan and charged the Level-11 old man while Dark Universe legions poured through the spatial rifts.
• Vegeta bypassed two Level-10 defenders and struck the old man, overcoming the Soul Suppressing Tower’s attack.
• Vegeta knocked out two of the old man’s teeth, then retreated as the old man emerged farther from the channel.
• Vegeta and his five-million-strong Saiyan Legion tore through the newly arrived Dark Universe forces and scattered their formations.
• Vegeta assessed the enemy’s strength, looked toward the bottomless channel, and flew toward another battlefield behind the Illusory Sea Maze.

Vegeta led the Saiyan Legion away from the Time-Space Altar after striking a Level-11 enemy, then tried to draw Dark Universe Time-Space’s attention toward other Light Universe civilizations. He returned to Saine with two seized rule teeth and warned that more Level-11 enemies might descend.

• Vegeta punched a Level-11 old man, then withdrew with the Saiyan Legion while Dark Universe experts watched.
• Vegeta led his legion toward the Crimson Flame Civilization and other encampments to divert Dark Universe forces toward the other Light Universe civilizations.
• Lord Tongyou stayed near the Time-Space Altar to recover, while two Level-10 Beings pursued Vegeta cautiously and investigated the Illusory Sea Maze.
• The Lord of Radiance warned the other Light Universe civilizations to reinforce their defenses after receiving news of the clash.
• Vegeta returned to Saine and handed him two rule teeth taken from the Level-11 enemy.
• Vegeta warned Saine that the old man might seek revenge and that more Level-11 Beings could descend; Halbaik said he welcomed the prospect of a fight.

Saine judged that Dark Universe Time-Space could send Level-11 reinforcements through the stable passage in the Illusory Sea Maze, and its growing forces threatened both the Five Super Civilizations’ campaign and their supply route. The Jade Vine Tree arrived to help secure the maze while Dark Universe Time-Space continued reinforcing the Darkness Source Civilization and holding its transit hub.

• Saine concluded that Dark Universe Time-Space likely possessed numerous Level-11 Strong Practitioners and was still gathering intelligence before escalating its invasion.
• The Level-11 old man Vegeta had beaten fully descended, but he stayed near the Space-Time Channel to reinforce its defenses rather than confront Vegeta and Storm Dragon Halbaik.
• Dark Universe Time-Space sent two more Level-11 Strong Practitioners, including one at the Level-11 Mid-Stage Realm, along with Level-10 Beings and elite legions to reinforce the Darkness Source Civilization.
• The reinforcements helped stabilize the Darkness Source Civilization’s heartland and intensified fighting with the Five Super Civilizations’ armies.
• The Five Super Civilizations sent main forces into the Illusory Sea Maze, and the Jade Vine Tree arrived to defend the vital rear-area hub while supporting the frontline through its projected avatar.
• Dark Universe Time-Space’s growing forces in the Illusory Sea Maze remained cautious as the Jade Vine Tree’s immense Life Energy strengthened the defenders.

Saine and the Destruction Demon God coordinated preparations for Primordial Universe Time-Space to join the Dimension War, while Dark Universe Time-Space continued concentrating forces in the Illusory Sea Maze. The Five Super Civilizations fortified the maze and intensified their campaign against the Darkness Source Civilization as the Crimson Flame Civilization committed more forces to the front.

• Saine learned that Locke had expanded the cross-dimensional network and secured support from Primordial Universe Time-Space factions for a potential large-scale intervention.
• Saine warned Locke and the others that Dark Universe Time-Space might redirect at least half its forces toward the Illusory Sea Maze front.
• Vegeta and the other scouts found the Dark Energy around the enemy teleportation arrays too dense to approach, while the Five Super Civilizations shifted to defensive positions in the maze.
• The Five Super Civilizations continued attacking the Darkness Source Civilization, with Gu Mie Sihuo nearing defeat under a coalition led by the Crimson Flame Civilization and Water Mirror Civilization.
• The Crimson Flame Civilization dispatched additional powerful fighters and resources to defend Light Universe Time-Space from the impending invasion.

The Dark Universe Time-Space mobilized an immense force to rescue Gu Mie Sihuo, while Great Black Heaven was left to defend the Darkness Source Civilization’s heartland. After assembling five Level-11 Strong Practitioners at the Illusory Sea Maze, the expeditionary army advanced toward the allied forces—and then turned its attention toward Saine’s position near the Time-Space Altar.

• Great Black Heaven wanted to save Gu Mie Sihuo but could spare no forces from defending the Darkness Source Civilization’s Cross-Dimensional Channels.
• The Yin God Envoy ordered the practitioners already in the Darkness Source Civilization’s heartland to hold their position, while the main support force gathered at the Illusory Sea Maze.
• Dark Universe Time-Space legions poured into the Light Universe Time-Space, and Saine noticed that their expanding presence was beginning to contaminate its Origin Rules.
• The Dark Universe Time-Space assembled five Level-11 Strong Practitioners at the Illusory Sea Maze and sent three toward the Jade Vine Tree’s defenses to reach Gu Mie Sihuo.
• After concentrating more than half their forces against the Five Super Civilizations’ allied front, the Level-11 Beings also turned toward the area near Saine’s Time-Space Altar.

Dark Universe Time-Space sent three Level-11 practitioners and their forces to destroy Saine’s Time-Space Rule Altar, forcing Saine and his allies to prepare for battle. As the enemy approached, Storm Dragon Balhaink declared that reinforcements were already on their way.

• Dark God Envoy ordered the Level-11 practitioners in Light Universe Time-Space to destroy Saine’s altar as a priority.
• Yin Gui Lei Di, Old Man Tianmie, and Lord Tongyou approached the altar with Dark Universe Time-Space’s forces.
• Saine activated the Magic Cube to shelter his allies and brought out the Bronze Coffin, drawing Old Man Tianmie’s greedy attention.
• Rocky asked whether they had reinforcements, and Storm Dragon Balhaink said they had been waiting for them.

The Destruction Divine Kingdom prepared to send a powerful Level-11 enforcer to reinforce the Light Universe Time-Space, while the Dark Universe forces tried to assess the coming arrival. On the Illusory Sea Maze Battlefield, Balhaink and Yin Gui Lei Di faced off as the cross-dimensional summoning continued.

• Locke’s forces prepared a cross-dimensional teleportation, and Saine recognized that the incoming enforcer’s combat power could threaten the existing balance.
• Lord Tongyou detected the summoning at Saine’s Time-Space Altar and urged Old Man Tianmie and Yin Gui Lei Di to stop it.
• Old Man Tianmie dismissed the danger, while Yin Gui Lei Di believed the Dark Universe side could handle another Level-11 opponent.
• Balhaink unleashed storms and lightning across the battlefield, prompting Yin Gui Lei Di to acknowledge her as a worthy opponent.
• Balhaink silently insulted Yin Gui Lei Di and charged into the air, gathering wind and lightning for battle.
