Qin Yang refused Li Zixuan’s offer to attend Meng Tianxuan’s meeting in his place, while the Star Police Department prepared to protect him. Three days later, Qin Yang met Meng Tianxuan at the outskirts of Jianghai City, where Meng asked what lay beyond the nine black holes in the sky.

• Meng Tianxuan apologized for their past conflict and asked Qin Yang where Star Power came from.
• Meng Tianxuan asked what lay beyond the black holes, and Qin Yang stared into them as if being drawn in.

Meng Tianxuan revealed to Qin Yang that the nine black holes were passages to another world, where powerful alien races controlled the flow of Star Power and regarded humans as livestock.

• Meng Tianxuan explained how Star Power and Star Warriors had emerged after the nine black holes appeared a thousand years earlier.
• Meng Tianxuan told Qin Yang that Celestial Venerable was the pinnacle of cultivation on Earth Star, while the world beyond the black holes had denser Star Power and stronger beings.
• Qin Yang guessed that the black holes were transportation channels, and Meng Tianxuan showed him an image of alien beings conducting a ritual around them.
• Meng Tianxuan explained that alien races had opened the channels to reach Earth Star for its resources and had sent their powerhouses through.
• Qin Yang realized the black holes were not a path to immortality but passages for foreign races, then asked why no records of those powerhouses existed.

Meng Tianxuan revealed to Qin Yang the erased history of the Human Race’s war against the Black Hole Experts and explained why the Supreme Alliance kept it secret. The story left Qin Yang accusing Meng Tianxuan of betraying the Alliance’s original purpose, while Meng Tianxuan insisted he was protecting Earth Star’s future.

• Qin Yang learned that wounded foreign experts had fallen through the nine black holes, while Earth Star’s people gained Star Power and began martial cultivation.
• Meng Tianxuan recounted how the Black Hole Experts later tried to breed the Human Race in captivity, prompting a three-year war that devastated civilizations and cost countless lives.
• Meng Tianxuan explained that the Supreme Alliance concealed the war because revealing the truth could cause panic and disrupt a society dependent on Star Power.

Meng Tianxuan explained to Qin Yang that the Blood Spirit Grand Array sustained Earth Star’s Star Power and that the Supreme Alliance allowed beast tides to nourish it while preventing Supreme Realm fighters from destabilizing the world. He warned that completing the array would fully open the black holes and let Foreign Land Experts descend.

• Qin Yang learned from Meng Tianxuan that the Blood Spirit Grand Array maintained the world’s Star Power and the nine black holes, and its collapse would devastate Earth Star.

• Qin Yang questioned whether activating the Blood Spirit Grand Arrays served the foreign races’ plans, and Meng Tianxuan warned that a completed array would open the black holes and bring Foreign Land Experts into the mortal world.

Meng Tianxuan revealed that the Blood Spirit Grand Array and the Nine Black Holes were tied to a coming invasion from the Foreign Land, and Qin Yang considered how the crisis might connect to Meng Tianxuan’s future breakthrough. Meng Tianxuan proposed an alliance against the Beast God Sect, but Qin Yang rejected his offer and declared that Zha Tian Gang did not care about ruling Blue Star.

• Meng Tianxuan explained that the black holes would open and let the Foreign Land invade, while the Supreme Alliance had maintained the Blood Spirit Grand Array to preserve Star Power without allowing the invaders to descend.
• Qin Yang inferred that the black holes might open in the near future and that their opening could be connected to Meng Tianxuan’s future rise to the God Venerable Realm.
• Meng Tianxuan asked whether Qin Yang would destroy the array or help preserve it, then said the Supreme Alliance needed Zha Tian Gang’s help to restrain the Beast God Sect.

• Xiao Bai cooked a feast of blood-replenishing dishes for Qin Yang and the others before Qin Yang departed for the Jianghai border.

• Qin Yang declared that the Zha Tian Gang had made preparations, and the Supremes behind him unleashed Space Law that shattered the space around them.

Qin Yang and the Zha Tian Gang formed a powerful Space Domain that trapped Meng Tianxuan and Nine Heavens Venerable, whose attacks were diverted far beyond its barriers. Qin Yang then sent Liu Wushuang outside the domain and prevented him from returning as the gang prepared to fight.

• Qin Yang and more than a dozen Zha Tian Gang Supremes expanded their Space Domain across the Da Li Mountain Range, causing the Ten Fiends Grand Array to tremble.

Qin Yang’s Heavenly Thunder Grand Array devastated the Supreme Alliance and Beast God Sect, leaving Meng Tianxuan and Nine Heavens Venerable horrified by their losses. As Qin Yang celebrated the array’s power, Liu Wushuang mistook the Zha Tian Gang’s staged self-destructions for a noble creed and asked to sacrifice himself.
