Chapter Summaries

Saine finalized plans with the Light God Race for a journey to the Primordial Universe Time-Space, then ordered a gradual redeployment of forces across the Light Universe Time-Space front. As the Lords of Dimension’s duel stalled, vast expeditionary armies completed their deployment across the battlefield.

• Befu told Saine that Destruction Demon God Locke had already arranged support for the journey to the Primordial Universe Time-Space, and Saine planned to bring the Pure World White Lotus, Divine Venerable Miao Bo, and other allies.
• Saine coordinated with the Light God Race and arranged for Green Vine Civilization forces to take over the Earth Element Golden Wall World Cluster’s defenses, while Moonlight Civilization forces reinforced the Light Armor Civilization War Zone.
• Saine ordered Mechanical Civilization legions to pull back gradually but left defensive structures and some forces behind to respond to developments in the Light Universe Time-Space.
• The Dark Universe Time-Space slowed its offensives on the three Main Battlefields and shifted elite forces toward the struggle for core resources in the Illusory Sea Maze.
• The Limitless Golden Emperor’s attack weakened as his Source Power ran low, while Ebony restrained his own attacks to avoid exhausting himself with the Destruction Divine Kingdom nearby.
• The armies following Ebony and the Limitless Golden Emperor completed their deployment, with vast expeditionary forces spreading across the Light Universe Time-Space battlefield.

As the fighting among the four Lords of Dimension eased, Duolie repeatedly changed his mind about entering the Light Universe Time-Space war. Ebony retaliated when Duolie tried to descend again, leaving him injured and stranded in Qisha Time-Space.

• Ebony, the Limitless Golden Emperor, the Dark Nether Death God, and Locke reduced their fighting, while their factions increasingly prepared to target native Light Universe civilizations.
• Duolie first delayed his descent, then stopped his preparations after seeing the four Lords of Dimension clash, angering Ebony, who had promised him support.
• When the battlefield settled into a fragile balance, Duolie restarted his descent preparations and gathered expeditionary legions at the Time-Space Altars.
• Ebony severed contact with Qisha Time-Space and detonated rule imprints at the descent channel's nodes as Duolie pushed an arm through.
• The channel's backlash hurled Duolie back to Qisha Time-Space, leaving his right hand burned and his rules severely injured.

With the dimensional factions slowing their offensives, Ebony and Locke began arranging new expansions into Light Universe Time-Space. Locke assigned territory to the Limitless Golden Emperor, who approved the plan and sent Xunyangzi toward Saine’s Mechanical Civilization Legion.

• Duolie’s advance into Light Universe Time-Space failed, and the collapsing channel stranded his vanguard army, leaving its Level-10 commander as the only known survivor.
• Ebony eased the Darkness Sword Organization’s attacks and sent Level-11 forces to conquer territory deeper in Light Universe Time-Space.
• Locke had a star map delivered to the Limitless Golden Emperor, marking the territory and resources allotted to Limitless Time-Space.
• The Limitless Golden Emperor examined the map, accepted the expansion plan, and noted that his territory adjoined Saine’s Mechanical Civilization.
• Xunyangzi flew toward the Mechanical Civilization Legion as Limitless Time-Space began preparing its expansion.

Saine returned to the Illusory Sea Maze with Duan Ning to prepare for his departure and discuss meeting Xunyangzi. He asked Duan Ning to develop a plan for refining Human Pills that could strengthen him with the Light Universe Time-Space’s dimensional rules.

• Saine visited the Mechanical Civilization’s heartland to finalize its development plans and seek a space-time beacon locator from Despair Matriarch Ilena.
• Saine contacted Duan Ning while she was refining Golden Cores, and she stopped her work to meet him and hear about the recent battles.
• Saine told Duan Ning that Xunyangzi was Dao Ancestor Hongjun’s seventh disciple, making him her martial uncle, and explained the connections that could strengthen ties between the Immortal Domain figures and Limitless Time-Space.
• Saine raised the idea of refining Human Pills from living high-level beings, and Duan Ning agreed to prepare for the difficult alchemical undertaking.
• Saine promised Duan Ning his full cooperation and said Destruction Demon God Locke would provide help as well.
• Saine and Locke concluded that Dao Ancestor Hongjun had recovered much of his cross-dimensional injuries by teaching Xunyangzi and could transform low-level Rule Materials into powerful Golden Cores.

Saine retrieved the Boundary Setting Crown from Despair Matriarch Ilena and received authority and intelligence for his mission in the Primordial Universe Time-Space. He introduced Duan Ning to Xunyangzi, whose account of Dao Ancestor Hongjun’s warning left Saine wondering how closely Hongjun was following the dimensional war.

• Saine met Despair Matriarch Ilena, who gave him the Boundary Setting Crown and granted him the highest judgment authority over the Destruction Divine Kingdom branch in the Primordial Universe Time-Space.
• Ilena warned Saine that Duolie might ally with local powers to enter the Primordial Universe Time-Space and gave him intelligence identifying the Sky Dragon Civilization and three ancient civilizations as reliable allies.
• Saine and Duan Ning visited the Limitless Time-Space Legion, where Xunyangzi greeted Duan Ning as a fellow disciple and gifted her rare alchemy materials.
• Saine learned that Xunyangzi specialized in formations and asked whether Dao Ancestor Hongjun had foreseen the dimensional war.
• Xunyangzi said Hongjun had only told him to guard his heart and the Dao when he met fellow disciples, leaving Saine without answers about his master's intentions.

Saine gathered Mechanical Civilization and allied legions at the Illusory Sea Maze to prepare an expedition into Primordial Universe Time-Space. Moonlight Civilization failed to secure a place in the expedition, while the assembled forces completed their preparations to depart.

• Saine failed to learn more about Dao Ancestor Hongjun from Xuan Yangzi, then took Duan Ning to the Illusory Sea Maze's cross-dimensional passage.
• Mechanical Civilization assembled most of its Dominator-class forces at the passage, joined by legions led by the Pure World White Lotus and Divine Venerable Miao Bo.
• The allied forces presented themselves as Mechanical Civilization's supporters, but their vast deployment drew attention from factions across both time-spaces.
• The Moonlight Goddess asked the Lord of Radiance to let Moonlight Civilization join the expedition, but the Lord of Radiance offered only to connect her with Saine.
• The Moonlight Goddess accepted that Moonlight Civilization would not join, as the Light God Race prioritized the First Generation Angels' mission to inspire the Creation God.
• Saine's fleet, the allied legions, and the five First Generation Angels stood ready after the Cross-Dimensional Channel's final adjustments.

Saine led the Mechanical Civilization Legion and his companions through a reinforced passage into the Primordial Universe Time-Space, where he began exploring its active Time-Space Power and vast territory. He also promised Zi You they would search for information about her father and Evil Tide Civilization.

• The Moonlight Goddess contacted Saine through Sky Net Will but refused its request to join dissection experiments or lend the Moonlight Treasure Box for research.
• Saine ordered the Mechanical Civilization Legion and his companions to depart for the Primordial Universe Time-Space.
• Zi You asked whether her father’s Higher Dimension might connect to their destination, and Saine promised to gather information about Evil Tide Civilization.
• Saine led Lina, Natalia, Zi You, and the assembled forces through the stable passage with little trouble.
• Saine and the others arrived in the Primordial Universe Time-Space, where Saine sensed its vast territory and unusually active Time-Space Power.

Saine and his allies arrived at the Destruction Divine Kingdom’s stronghold in the Primordial Universe Time-Space, where the kingdom was under siege by the Darkness Sword Organization and other forces. After arranging for his assistants to prepare the cross-time-space altar, Saine led his combat forces toward the front line to help Locke.

• Saine and his party descended into the Destruction Divine Kingdom’s Twin-Ring Starfield and were met by a Level-10 Destruction Angel.
• Saine learned that the Destruction Divine Kingdom’s outer regions were under attack and that the Sky Dragon Civilization had helped defend the stronghold.
• The Light God Race’s five First Generation Angels, Saine’s family, and a vast force of allies arrived in the kingdom’s hinterland.
• A Level-10 native of the Primordial Universe Time-Space feared that the Destruction Divine Kingdom had brought its main forces back from the Light Universe battlefield.
• Saine assigned Mechanical Beings and assistants to prepare infrastructure for the cross-time-space altar, then decided to visit the front line and help Locke.

Saine led reinforcements to the Destruction Divine Kingdom’s frontline, where the Heavenly Dragon Emperor launched a counterattack. As Saine investigated his weakening connection to the God of Machines, Purple Colony Demon Emperor reported sensing Brilliant Blue Demon Ancestor’s aura.

• Saine led his Mechanical Civilization forces and the Celestial Star Nether Scorpion couple toward the battlefield, followed by Pure World White Lotus, Divine Venerable Miao Bo, and the five First Generation Angels.
• The Heavenly Dragon Emperor sensed the reinforcements and ordered a counterattack as Saine appeared in his Mechanical Fusion Giant form.
• Saine found that his connection to the God of Machines had weakened in Primordial Universe Time-Space, while the five First Generation Angels sensed a stronger imprint of the Creation God.
• Saine asked Zi You whether she had sensed the Evil Tide Civilization, but she had not.
• Purple Colony Demon Emperor told Saine she had sensed the familiar Water Attribute Demonic Energy aura of Brilliant Blue Demon Ancestor.

Saine learned that the Purple Colony Demon Emperor might have sensed the Brilliant Blue Demon Ancestor and decided to verify the aura with his time-space apparatus. He then led the newly arrived Mechanical Civilization Legion and allied forces into a fierce battle against the Darkness Sword Organization and its allies.

• Saine recalled the Brilliant Blue Demon Ancestor and Darkness Demon Ancestor’s ascent through the Flowing Light Retrospective World and considered how much time and strength they might have gained.
• Saine told the Purple Colony Demon Emperor to visit his laboratory so they could use the time-space apparatus to confirm whether the sensed aura was real.
• The Celestial Star Nether Scorpion couple unleashed their combined rule beam while five First Generation Angels fused into Super Angel Jingzhi.
• Jingzhi raised the Light Holy Sword and shouted “Slay Evil!” as the newly arrived Angel Legion charged the hostile forces.
• Saine’s forces joined the battle in a star zone where the Darkness Sword Organization had lost reinforcements and slowed its assault on the Destruction Divine Kingdom.

Mechanical God Emperor Saine and the Heavenly Dragon Emperor turned the Destruction Divine Kingdom’s home-front defense into a counteroffensive, forcing Darkness Sword Ebony to withdraw his troops. With the remaining hostile powers frightened of Locke’s eventual retaliation, the Meteor Sea Civilization sought Duolie’s help, but he left them waiting.

• Saine led the Mechanical Civilization’s support forces and top experts in a counterattack against the Darkness Sword Organization on the Primordial Universe battlefield.
• The Heavenly Dragon Emperor committed the Sky Dragon Civilization’s main legion and his Level-12 Rule True Body, turning the Destruction Divine Kingdom’s defense into an overwhelming advantage.
• After learning of the counterattack, Ebony ordered his Primordial Universe forces to retreat so he could preserve his troops and focus on the Light Universe Time-Space.
• The other hostile powers withdrew from the battlefield, fearing Locke’s future retaliation once he was free to act.
• The Meteor Sea Civilization secretly asked Duolie to intervene, but Duolie delayed his decision despite receiving generous gifts.

Mechanical God Emperor Saine helped turn back the invasion threatening the Destruction Divine Kingdom, prompting the Heavenly Dragon Emperor to visit and thank him. As the battlefield quieted, Saine reflected on alliances that might shift the dimensional war and noticed a beautiful Azure Starry Sky Light Belt in the Destruction Divine Kingdom.

• The Meteor Sea Civilization faced growing danger after Duolie refused its plea for aid, leaving it vulnerable to retaliation from the Destruction Divine Kingdom.
• A few hundred years after Saine led the Mechanical Civilization Legion’s counteroffensive, the Darkness Sword Organization and other hostile powers withdrew from the Destruction Divine Kingdom’s outskirts.
• The Heavenly Dragon Emperor arrived before Saine and solemnly thanked him for protecting the Destruction Divine Kingdom and, by extension, the Sky Dragon Civilization.
• Saine credited Locke and the Limitless Golden Emperor with stabilizing the war in Light Universe Time-Space, and the Heavenly Dragon Emperor worried how long its balance would last.
• Saine considered how recruiting powerful figures such as the Creation God, the God of Machines, the Darkness Demon Ancestor, and Dao Ancestor Hongjun could benefit the Destruction Divine Kingdom Faction.
• Saine spotted a brilliant Azure Starry Sky Light Belt and thought about laying foundations for the Wizard Civilization’s eventual arrival in the Higher Dimensional Plane.

After repelling the invasion, Saine focused on building a cross-dimensional altar to summon powerful allies. His attempts to summon the Creation God failed for more than a thousand years, but a new effort to contact the Brilliant Blue Demon Ancestor began smoothly.

• Saine set aside the Primordial Universe Time-Space’s new rule manifestations and met with allied civilization leaders before entering the altar project.
• Saine and his assistants brought the Time-Space Rule Altar to nearly seventy percent completion, leaving its most difficult work to him.
• Saine and the Five Angels of the First Generation spent more than a thousand years trying to summon the Creation God, but interference from the God’s dimension repeatedly disrupted the passage.
• Saine abandoned the Creation God summoning attempt and prepared to change targets, but Zi You and the Purple Colony Demon Emperor’s visit inspired him to try contacting the Brilliant Blue Demon Ancestor and the Darkness Demon Ancestor.
• The Brilliant Blue Demon Ancestor’s rule fluctuations and voice crossed the dimensional barrier and reached Saine at the altar.

Saine learned that Brilliant Blue Demon Ancestor and Darkness Demon Ancestor were trapped in Eternal Day Time-Space, an extremely light-dominated Higher Dimensional Plane hostile to darkness. As Saine began powering the Cross-dimensional Altar to summon them, Brilliant Blue Demon Ancestor prepared to cooperate from her side.

• Brilliant Blue Demon Ancestor contacted Saine and the others through the Time-Space Altar, urgently requesting help while Darkness Demon Ancestor laughed amid the danger.
• Saine questioned Brilliant Blue Demon Ancestor and learned that Eternal Day Time-Space was dominated by extreme Light Rules and threatened the two Devil Ancestors.
• Saine inferred that Eternal Day Time-Space was more powerful and hostile than Light Universe Time-Space, while Brilliant Blue Demon Ancestor warned that she did not know how long Darkness could hold on.
• Saine reassured Brilliant Blue Demon Ancestor that Darkness could endure for several thousand years and said the summoning would not take long.
• Saine poured his Source Power into the Cross-dimensional Altar, causing its Time-Space Power and rule runes to reach toward Eternal Day Time-Space.

Saine and his allies opened a cross-dimensional passage to rescue the Brilliant Blue Demon Ancestor and the Darkness Demon Ancestor from the Eternal Day Time-Space. As the silver-blue pillar enveloped the two Demon Ancestors, their Level-12 pursuer realized the passage was more than an ordinary escape.

• Saine learned that three hundred and fifty thousand years had passed for the Demon Ancestors in the Eternal Day Time-Space, where the Brilliant Blue Demon Ancestor had reached Level-10 Mid-Stage and the Darkness Demon Ancestor had reached Level-11 Mid-Stage.
• The Brilliant Blue Demon Ancestor coordinated with Saine's side for more than a hundred years until their rule-based summoning achieved perfect frequency resonance.
• Saine's side opened a Space-Time Channel from the Primordial Universe Time-Space to the Eternal Day Time-Space and connected it to the Demon Ancestors' auras.
• The Brilliant Blue Demon Ancestor told the Darkness Demon Ancestor that the passage was open, and he struck at his pursuers before retreating toward her.
• The silver-blue pillar enveloped both Demon Ancestors, prompting the Level-12 Mid-Stage pursuer to shout for the others to stop them.

As Eternal Day Time-Space’s forces closed in on the wounded Darkness Demon Ancestor and Brilliant Blue Demon Ancestor, a foreign-rule summons from Primordial Universe Time-Space offered them a chance to escape. They fought through the attackers as Saine’s summoning power began teleporting them away.

• A Level-12 Mid-Stage commander recognized the foreign-rule summons and warned the besieging forces to watch out.
• Brilliant Blue Demon Ancestor raised layers of Evil Tide shields and strengthened her connection to the summoning rules from Primordial Universe Time-Space.
• Darkness Demon Ancestor retreated toward Brilliant Blue Demon Ancestor and accepted the summoning power Saine transmitted.
• Darkness Demon Ancestor struck back with the Burial Sky Blade, injuring and driving off several Level-9 and Level-10 attackers.
• The summoning grew stronger, and Darkness Demon Ancestor and Brilliant Blue Demon Ancestor began to fade as their teleportation neared completion.

Darkness Demon Ancestor and Brilliant Blue Demon Ancestor escaped Eternal Day Time-Space through Saine’s cross-dimensional channel while a Level-12 pursuer hurled the Spear of Light after them. Saine and Heavenly Dragon Emperor strengthened the channel’s barrier, destroying the spear, but the two demons’ auras vanished in the resulting blast.

• Gravely wounded, Darkness Demon Ancestor threatened his pursuers and seized Brilliant Blue Demon Ancestor as Saine’s transmission began to envelop them.
• The Level-12 Mid-Stage Being of Eternal Day Time-Space hurled the Spear of Light into the cross-dimensional channel after the escaping demons.
• Saine sensed the danger, increased the channel’s stability, and urgently summoned Heavenly Dragon Emperor for help.
• Heavenly Dragon Emperor used his nine Dragon Pearls and followed Saine’s instructions to reinforce the space-time barrier behind the escaping demons.
• The Spear of Light struck the reinforced barrier and exploded, after which the auras of Darkness Demon Ancestor and Brilliant Blue Demon Ancestor disappeared.

Jin Yi’s hunt for the Darkness Demon Ancestor and the Brilliant Blue Demon Ancestor failed, while the Creation God pressed the Lord of Eternal Day to let him leave and return to the Light God Race. The Lord of Eternal Day turned his attention to Jin Yi’s alarming report, leaving the Creation God’s departure unresolved.

• Jin Yi’s Spear of Light broke during the pursuit, erasing its tracking marks as the Darkness Demon Ancestor and the Brilliant Blue Demon Ancestor escaped.
• The Lord of Eternal Day tried to persuade the Creation God to remain in the Eternal Day Time-Space, despite the Creation God’s wish to return to the Light God Race.
• The Creation God cited the call of his created children and a warning from the Creation Record as reasons he needed to leave.
• The Lord of Eternal Day argued that the time-space needed the Creation God to deal with the two Dark Beings, whose threat Jin Yi had failed to stop.
• Jin Yi’s aura and a roar shook the starry sky, and the Lord of Eternal Day realized the pursuit had failed and the Dark Beings had escaped the time-space.

The Lord of Eternal Day asked the Creation God to use the Great Prophecy Technique to investigate who had helped the Darkness Demon Ancestor escape. The Creation God began the prophecy and froze when the Creation Record revealed its information.

• The Creation God again failed to get permission from the Lord of Eternal Day to leave Eternal Day Time-Space.
• The Lord of Eternal Day and the Creation God learned that an outside force had summoned the Darkness Demon Ancestor and another mysterious being had blocked their pursuers.
• The Lord of Eternal Day asked the Creation God to identify which Dimensional Plane was acting in secret and whether a large-scale war was coming.
• The Creation God agreed and used the Great Prophecy Technique with the Creation Record.
• The Creation God read the information on the Creation Record, widened his eyes, and froze.

The Creation God traced the power that had rescued Darkness Demon Ancestor and Brilliant Blue Demon Ancestor to Saine, but Saine sensed the scrutiny and blocked it, leaving both of them to recognize each other’s power across dimensions. As Saine prepared to receive the demons, the injured pair escaped their pursuers and looked ahead to meeting their old acquaintance.

• The Creation God used the Great Prophecy Technique to trace the mysterious power and discovered its deep ties to the Light God Race.
• Saine sensed the cross-dimensional scrutiny, blocked it, and realized the watcher was likely the Creation God.
• Darkness Demon Ancestor and Brilliant Blue Demon Ancestor escaped their pursuers in the Time-Space Channel, with Darkness Demon Ancestor badly wounded by a light spearhead.
• Brilliant Blue Demon Ancestor used her water-element healing power to suppress the light’s erosion, and Darkness Demon Ancestor pulled the spearhead from his wound.
• Darkness Demon Ancestor identified Saine as their rescuer, decided to offer him the Dimension Supreme Treasure-grade spearhead, and wondered how their Evil Tide Civilization was faring.
