Chapter Summaries

After reaching the limit of Half-Step Transcendence, Yang Yu decided to seek a new path beyond the Abyss Universe’s Barrier. He opened a tiny gap to draw in the chaos outside, and a wisp of it slipped inside.

• Yang Yu’s growth stalled at the limit of Half-Step Transcendence, while the rest of the team completed their year of cultivation.
• Xilan explained that the chaos beyond the Barrier dissolved the Logic Code of laws, and that only three of her thousand probing threads had returned.
• Yang Yu concluded that further cultivation inside the Abyss would not bring a breakthrough and decided to invite the outside chaos in.
• Yang Yan grabbed Yang Yu’s wrist and warned him about the danger, but Yang Yu said he only wanted to open a gap.
• Yang Yu used the Authority of the Abyss Sovereign to tear a needlepoint opening in the Barrier, and a faint wisp of chaos entered the Abyss Universe.

Yang Yu let a wisp of Chaos Breath into the Abyss, where it began dissolving the Abyss’s Laws and origin. As he realized Chaos could recast dissolved Laws into new rules, he discovered a possible path to Transcendence and prepared to test it.

• Yang Yu sensed a wisp of Chaos Breath enter the Abyss and watched it erase the meaning of the Time Law and spread through the Origin Sea.
• Yang Yu sealed the Chaos Breath, but it began dissolving the barrier and Abyss origin, injuring him and threatening to destroy the Abyss Universe within 237 days.
• Xilan warned Yang Yu to isolate the Chaos Breath, while the God of All Machines, Yang Yan, Little White, and Lucifer arrived and saw the crisis.
• Yang Yu stopped Lucifer from attacking with Fallen Law and realized Law-based powers could not defeat the Chaos Breath.
• Yang Yu sensed that dissolved Law fragments were spontaneously combining into new rudimentary rules and concluded Chaos could recast Laws.
• Yang Yu identified throwing oneself into Chaos and recasting dissolved Laws as a path to Transcendence, then reached toward the Chaos Breath to test it.

Yang Yu deliberately shattered the barrier containing Chaos Qi and swallowed it, hoping to seize its power to reshape the rules. The Chaos Qi began formatting his body and dissolving his Laws, while Lucifer stopped Yang Yan from rushing to save him.

• Yang Yu ignored Yang Yan, Xilan, Lucifer, Little White, and the God of All Machines as they warned him not to approach the Chaos Qi.
• Yang Yu broke the Origin Sealing Barrier and inhaled the released Chaos Qi, swallowing it whole.
• After three seconds, Chaos Qi began erasing Yang Yu's body and stripping away the sixteen Great Universe Laws fused within him.
• Yang Yan tried to reach Yang Yu, but Lucifer restrained her and warned that contact with his Dissolution Force would format her too.
• Yang Yu doubled over and vomited black Divine Blood, which turned into Blank Symbols and vanished before it could fall.

As the Chaos Origin Sea erased Yang Yu and threatened to collapse the Abyss Universe, he anchored his remaining True Spirit with the Prehistoric Sniper Rifle and began devouring the Chaos Qi. The rifle melted into pure Transcendence material and fused with Yang Yu’s True Spirit, leaving him roaring as a blinding gray-gold light erupted.

• Yang Yu’s body was almost completely erased, and his fading life force caused the Abyss Universe to unravel as Xilan, Yang Yan, Lucifer, Little White, and the God of All Machines watched in despair.
• Yang Yu opened his left eye and used his willpower to pull the battered Prehistoric Sniper Rifle from his True Spirit, then drove it into the remaining flesh over his heart.
• The rifle’s Transcendence patterns resisted the Chaos Qi long enough for Yang Yu to anchor himself and form a True Spirit vortex that tore the Chaos Qi from his body and devoured it.
• The God of All Machines crashed while Xilan, Yang Yan, and Lucifer stared in shock at Yang Yu’s impossible act of consuming chaos.
• The Prehistoric Sniper Rifle melted under the high-dimensional forces, and its pure Transcendence material fused with Yang Yu’s True Spirit and the Abyss Origin.
• Yang Yu let out a roar as the fusion began, and a blinding gray-gold light erupted from the vortex.

Yang Yu remolded his body into a Chaos Body but remained at Half-Step Transcendence, then stepped into the Chaos Sea and absorbed its currents unharmed. His resonance with the Abyss Universe triggered its foundational rules to begin purging what they recognized as poison.

• Yang Yu emerged with a gray-gold body whose presence forced Lucifer, Yang Yan, Xilan, and Little White into submission.
• Yang Yu revealed that he was still at Half-Step Transcendence and said higher-dimensional forces would never grant him the title of Transcendent because he rejected their path.
• Yang Yu ignored the women's warnings, tore open the Abyss Barrier, and stepped into the Chaos Sea without protection.
• Chaos Qi failed to harm Yang Yu and instead flowed into his body as he absorbed it.
• The Abyss Universe began convulsing as Yang Yu's Chaos Body resonated with its underlying logic and activated a purge of poisons within it.

Yang Yu exposed Origin Matter as a self-aware high-dimensional pollution source that weakened its users and prepared them for control by the Observers, while the Abyss expelled and Chaos Qi destroyed it. After realizing that even the idea of Transcendence may have been implanted into their minds, Yang Yu questioned what had first set them on their path.

• Yang Yu sensed Yang Yan, Lucifer, Little White, Xilan, and people across the Abyss suffering as the Abyss forced golden Origin Matter out of their bodies.
• Yang Yu warned Xilan not to touch the expelled Origin Matter, which transformed into rancid black energy and was ejected into the Chaos Sea.
• The God of All Machines identified the black substance as a self-aware High-Dimensional Memetic Pollution Source that used the promise of greater strength to seize control of its hosts.
• Yang Yu explained that the Observers could have turned those who absorbed Origin Matter into puppets or mindless monsters, and Chaos Qi completely devoured the pollution source.
• Yang Yu argued that cultivation manuals and the promise of Transcendence could be part of a scheme to raise and control them, and Little White and Xilan admitted they could not remember who had first taught them about Transcendence.
• Yang Yu concluded that the Observers had implanted the concept into their minds and wondered what had originally set them on this path.

Yang Yu discovered that the Professionals Panel was a parasitic chain planted by the High-Dimensional Observers and realized every being in the Abyss still carried its code. He decided to refine the entire Abyss into a Chaos Spirit Treasure to cleanse everyone at once, then locked down the universe to begin.

• Yang Yu ripped the Professionals Panel from his Logic Code and threw it into the Chaos Sea, where Chaos Qi destroyed it.
• Xilan revealed that the Seventh Universe Sea had used an equivalent Divine Spark Sequence, and Lucifer warned that the panels could let the High-Dimensional Observers turn tens of quadrillions of beings into monsters.
• The God of All Machines calculated that cleansing everyone individually would take seventy-eight thousand eras and would kill nearly all ordinary beings.
• Little White proposed extracting every soul into a vessel and gently cleansing the panel code with diluted Chaos Qi.
• Yang Yu rejected the need for a separate vessel and declared that he would refine the entire Abyss, its inhabitants included, into a Chaos Spirit Treasure.
• Yang Yu stomped into the Abyss Origin Sea, locked down the universe's laws, and sealed the Abyss like a pot.

Yang Yu refined the Abyss Universe's Barrier into a dark gold Chaos Magical Treasure that filtered lethal Chaos Qi into nourishing energy for the universe. After showing that the Barrier could safely supply the Abyss with purified Chaos energy, he began compressing the mist above the Abyss Core, revealing that he had a larger plan.

• Yang Yu used his Chaos Origin and the Origin Sea to refine the collapsing Universe Barrier, enduring two months of injury before transforming it into a durable dark gold structure.
• The God of All Machines judged the Barrier immune to known High-Dimensional Laws attacks, and Yang Yu demonstrated that it could filter Chaos Qi into gentle mist that nourished the Abyss and its inhabitants.
• Xilan, Lucifer, Yang Yan, and the others watched as the mist restored strength and helped people throughout the Abyss, while Yang Yu explained that the universe could now draw energy directly from the Chaos Sea.
• Yang Yu warned that the Barrier was only a pot meant to boil water, then gathered the newly inhaled Chaos Mist above the Abyss Core and compressed it into a mountain-sized sphere.

Yang Yu forged a Chaos High-Pressure Cooker and used it to forcibly extract the system panels and control codes implanted in every being in the Abyss Universe. The codes and hidden Higher-Dimensional Wills poured into the cooker, leaving Yang Yu poised to boil them into soup.

• Yang Yu forged a giant High-Pressure Cooker from Chaos Energy, explaining that it could seal, pressurize, and melt even stubborn laws and high-dimensional logic.
• Yang Yu aimed the cooker at the Abyss Mid-layer and used its Suction Force to target the systems implanted in every living being's soul.
• Profession Panels and Divine Spark Sequence halos appeared above people across the Abyss Mid-layer, causing widespread pain and panic as beings feared losing their powers.
• Veteran deities tried to confront Yang Yu, but he knocked them into the ground and intensified the cooker’s Suction Force.
• Yang Yu tore the panels and control codes out of every being and drew the resulting torrent into the cooker, declaring that he would boil the Dog Chains and the Higher-Dimensional Wills inside them into soup.

Yang Yu trapped the High-Dimensional Observer’s projection inside the High-Pressure Cooker and spent seven days refining it, while the powerless survivors below struggled to endure. The screams stopped, and Yang Yu prepared to open the cooker, leaving the fate of the Abyss Universe uncertain.

• The High-Dimensional Observer’s geometric projection threatened to detonate the stolen codes, but Yang Yu slammed the cooker’s lid shut and locked it before the self-destruction command could reach the codes.
• Yang Yu used Chaos Origin Flame to pressure-cook the projection and strip away its control code, while Xilan and the others watched.
• Across the Abyss Mid-layer, the loss of their panels left Blue Star humans and the Deities of myriad worlds powerless and rapidly aging.
• Li Qingcang and Elder Wang rallied the Blue Star survivors, urging them to trust Yang Yu and endure the loss of their strength.
• Yang Yu kept the cooker burning for seven days and nights until the projection’s screams and the exhaust stopped.
• Yang Yu withdrew the Origin Flame and reached for the cooker’s release valve as Xilan, Little White, and the others awaited what would emerge.

Yang Yu purified the High-Dimensional Observer’s control code and forged a new Abyss system, freeing the beings in the Abyss Mid-layer from their restrictions and restoring their strength. He then created Chaos Trial Grounds and called on the universe’s inhabitants to grow powerful enough to attack the Observers.

• Yang Yu opened the Chaos High-Pressure Cooker and revealed that it had cleansed the Pollution Sources into pure, ownerless High-Dimensional Origin.
• Yang Yu used the God of All Machines’ computing power to rewrite the universe’s rules and forge an Abyss Mark infused with Chaos Energy.
• Gray-gold meteors carrying the new Abyss Mark descended on the Abyss Mid-layer, restoring and empowering its inhabitants.
• Li Qingcang broke through to Half-Step Transcendence, while Elder Wang, the Blue Star soldiers, and the Myriad Realms deities also recovered and advanced.
• Yang Yu used Abyss Terrain Forced Folding to create Chaos Trial Grounds and broadcast the launch of Abyss Online Version 2.0 across the universe.

Yang Yu revealed that his new cultivation system secretly returned ten percent of its users’ gains to his Origin Sea, turning the Abyss universe’s growing population into a source of passive power. Lucifer then realized that the Chaos Phantoms were also preparing the cultivators to withstand Chaos Qi.

• Yang Yu dismissed Little White’s praise, and Xilan questioned the Origin he had spent rewriting the universe’s laws.
• Yang Yu showed that the Abyss Marks copied ten percent of their bearers’ cultivation gains and sent them to his Origin Sea.
• Xilan recognized that the system was an investment that let beings grow stronger while continually enriching Yang Yu.
• The God of All Machines calculated that Yang Yu gained the equivalent of three Seventh Universe Seas’ accumulated power every second.
• Lucifer deduced that Yang Yu had placed the Chaos Phantoms to acclimate cultivators to Chaos Qi’s corrosive effects.

Yang Yu revealed his plan to make the Abyss’s fighters resistant to Chaos and lead an expedition against the Zero-Point Dimension, but Li Qingcang and the others confronted him over the damage he had suffered. The God of All Machines then detected an extremely high-dimensional presence approaching through the Chaos Sea.

• Yang Yu explained that Chaos Phantoms would gradually acclimate billions of fighters to Chaos Essence, preparing them to become Chaos Bodies and attack the Zero-Point Dimension.
• Li Qingcang, Elder Wang, and Yun Ruoxi arrived with greatly increased power, and Li Qingcang seized Yang Yu by the collar after sensing his severe injuries.
• Yun Ruoxi confirmed Yang Yu’s condition, while Elder Wang and Yang Yan urged him not to bear Blue Star’s burden alone; Yang Yu said he could recover using stored energy.
• The God of All Machines issued a red alert and reported that an extremely high-dimensional presence had locked onto the Abyss and was approaching through the Chaos Sea.

Yang Yu discovered that an unknowable presence in the Chaos Depths was watching the Abyss Universe and eroding the Barrier, giving him about 1,700 days before it fell below the safety threshold. He sent the others to train and strengthen the universe, then entered seclusion; after 170 Abyss days, Yang Yan saw the Frost Flowers spreading rapidly and the Barrier’s resonance growing louder.

• Yang Yu and the God of All Machines detected an approaching presence beyond known dimensions, while gray Frost Flowers began forming on the Barrier.
• Yang Yu resolved to grow strong enough to confront the presence before the Barrier failed, and Yun Ruoxi agreed that they should prepare to attack.
• Li Qingcang, Elder Wang, and Yun Ruoxi returned to train; Yang Yu assigned Lucifer to oversee the Trial Grounds and sent Little White and Xilan to refine Cosmic Bubble fragments.
• Yang Yu entered deep seclusion to repair his Origin, while Yang Yan stayed behind to monitor the Barrier.
• Over 170 Abyss days, the inhabitants rapidly advanced through Lucifer’s trials, and Yang Yu’s Origin refilled and grew in quality.
• Yang Yan recorded the Frost Flowers spreading at 0.8 square centimeters per minute as they corroded the Barrier, whose resonance had grown louder and closer.

Yang Yu fought back against an unknown being pressing its fingers through the Abyss Barrier, then turned the destructive Chaos power it inflicted on him into a universe-wide World BOSS event. By the end, the Players had begun digesting the power for him, and Yang Yu had recovered and gained a new defense.

• Yang Yan spotted five enormous fingerprints pressing into the Abyss Barrier, and Yang Yu woke to confront them.
• Yang Yu struck the fingerprints, but the force from beyond the Barrier cracked his Chaos Body and began formatting him.
• Yang Yu swallowed part of the invading power and used the Abyss Mark Network to divide it among the universe's inhabitants.
• Yang Yu announced a new Abyss expansion and summoned Chaos Giant Beasts, prompting Players to attack them despite the lethal formatting currents.
• The Players' resistance to formatting grew as they fought, while a portion of the power they digested returned to Yang Yu and healed him.

Yang Yu discovered that an enormous monster had swallowed the Abyss Universe, then turned its attempt to digest them into a source of loot and power for the universe’s inhabitants. As the monster strained against the Barrier, Yang Yu prepared to shatter its teeth with a physical attack.

• Yang Yu’s Chaos Body absorbed Extremely High Dimension power, increasing his physical attack strength, while Xilan and the Abyss’s fighters gained resistance and power from the server-wide battle.
• Yang Yu’s altered eyes revealed that a colossal mass of rotting flesh had enveloped the Abyss Universe and was drawing it toward its stomach.
• Yang Yu told Yang Yan and Xilan that they had been eaten, then ordered Xiao Ji to connect to the server-wide system and tore flesh from the monster through the Barrier.
• Yang Yu granted all inhabitants powerful buffs, free instant revival, and damage-to-revival-cost conversion, sending billions of fighters to attack and devour the monster’s flesh.
• Yang Yu turned the Barrier into an automatic flesh-scraping blade and absorbed a share of the Resistance Crystals as the fighters battled the monster.
• The monster strained to crush the Abyss Universe, buckling its Barrier, and Yang Yu drew back his fist to shatter its teeth.

Yang Yu transformed the Abyss Universe into a weapon to fight the high-dimensional monster that had swallowed it. After one giant mouth failed to overpower the monster, he covered the universe’s surface with hundreds of millions of mouths and tore vast amounts of flesh from it.

• Yang Yu watched the Abyss beings grow stronger as they repeatedly fought and devoured the Chaos Giant Beasts inside the Abyss.
• He saw that the monster had completely enveloped the Abyss Universe and was melting its barrier with digestive fluids.
• Yang Yu reshaped the Abyss Universe’s outer shell into a giant war spear and gouged flesh from the monster, but the wound healed almost instantly.
• He formed a giant mouth on the universe’s shell and tried to bite off a piece of the monster, but its tentacles countered the pull and began prying the jaws open.
• Yang Yu created hundreds of millions of Abyss Giant Mouths across the universe’s surface, and they tore huge chunks of flesh from the monster for the players below.

The Players and Xilan slaughtered the Chaos Giant Beasts pouring into the Abyss Mid-layer, while their deaths and kills nourished Yang Yu. As Yang Yu watched the outer monster halt its attack and reveal countless black eyes that rewrote matter, he prepared to face its hidden power.

• Li Qingcang and the Players charged the Chaos Giant Beasts, repeatedly dying and reviving as they attacked and collected drops.
• God of All Machines repaired and recharged its Purple-Gold Mech after its Logic Code railguns devastated the giant beasts.
• Little White tore into a Chaos Giant Beast, and Xilan used her Causality Threads to kill thousands before greed drove her to harvest the battlefield.
• Yun Ruoxi weakened the monsters, Lucifer cut them apart, and Yang Yan burned their remains into drops.
• Yang Yu absorbed a portion of the battle’s damage and drops, strengthening his Origin Sea and Absolute Law.
• The outer monster stopped moving as countless black eyes emerged and turned the Abyss’s metal Giant Mouths into crystal, and Yang Yu rose to confront it.

Yang Yu forced Xilan to calculate a way out of the Abyss's impending assimilation and learned that the Zero-Point Dimension offered their only chance. He drove the Abyss Universe through the monster that had swallowed it and toward the Observers' gate, where the guardian One recognized the approaching creature as the God Devourer.

• The God Devourer's black eyes stripped sections of the Abyss Barrier from Yang Yu's control, threatening to assimilate the universe and erase his consciousness.
• Yang Yu forced Xilan to use Dream Weaver and calculate possible futures, and she found a surviving route leading to the Zero-Point Dimension.
• Yang Yu seized the remaining Barrier controls and turned the Abyss Universe into a propelled, conical warhead aimed at the Observers' domain.
• Li Qingcang urged the Players to pour their Mana into Yang Yu as the Abyss accelerated through the God Devourer's body.
• The Abyss tore through the creature's inner passages and reached the gate of the Zero-Point Dimension, where One identified it as the God Devourer.

Yang Yu used a God Devourer as a battering ram, crushing the Zero-Point Dimension’s gatekeeper Yi and turning his Origin Matter into monsters for the Players. With the Abyss Universe still trapped inside the God Devourer, Yang Yu then drove both of them through the gate into the Zero-Point Dimension, where the collision began to collapse the sky.

• Yi mistook the approaching God Devourer for a threat to the Zero-Point Dimension and hurled a Truth Spear at it, but Yang Yu drove the Abyss Universe’s drill through the monster’s hide and crushed Yi.
• Yang Yu collected Yi’s twelve Origin Matter Crystals, altered their control code, and sent the resulting Variant World BOSSes into the Mid-Level Trial Grounds, where the Players rushed to attack them.
• The God of All Machines explained that Yi’s spear had disrupted the God Devourer’s assimilation for 1.5 seconds, letting Yang Yu regain control of the Abyss Universe’s Armor Plates.
• Yang Yu resumed harvesting the God Devourer while the Players gathered Resistance Crystals, but he realized the Abyss could not consume the beast before it adapted and resumed assimilating it.
• Yang Yu ordered the God of All Machines to power the Stern Thruster and drove the Abyss Universe, with the God Devourer behind it, through the damaged gate into the Zero-Point Dimension.
• The Abyss Universe and the God Devourer slammed into the Pure White Gate, and the sky of the Zero-Point Dimension collapsed.
