• Hokusai Kishinami awakened from petrification and urged Chen Li to vent his desires on her, drawn to his Savior-like wish to help the world.

• Chen Li appeared beside Ereshkigal, startling her into stumbling backward, and caught her in his arms before she hit the petrified flowers.

• Yang Guifei returned with Kama, Hokusai Kishinami, and Beast Nero, along with stone statues she had recovered, and suggested Algeal visit a Greek Lostbelt.

• Chen Li prepared to turn Goetia and the 72 Pillars of Demon Gods into a Weekly Instance, then tried to recruit Yang Guifei into it.

Chen Li entered the Final Singularity to confront Goetia, but Goetia mistook him and the Beasts accompanying him for allies who shared his plan to Incinerate Humanity. After Goetia explained his origins and ideals, Chen Li was left speechless as Goetia praised him as a kindred pioneer.

• Chen Li summoned Doctor Roman and told him to put on the Slap Gloves and slap Goetia, opening a black hole to the Final Singularity.

• Goetia explained that he was the independent consciousness of the seventy-two Pillars of Demon God and described his plan to rewind history, become a new celestial body, and create a world without death.
• Goetia claimed Chen Li's past proved humanity was hopeless and praised him as a mentor, while Chen Li silently rejected Goetia's interpretation.

Chen Li agreed to help Goetia defeat Star Howl by granting him new power, while Pixie grew increasingly furious at Goetia’s praise of Chen Li. Chen Li began transforming Goetia with the six talismans, and the chapter ended as the first three talisman effects entered Goetia’s Spirit Origin.

• Pixie became enraged by Goetia’s praise of Chen Li and blamed the Miracle System’s problems on systems lacking proper users.
• Chen Li stopped Goetia’s speech and agreed to help him, but said he would grant him power rather than fight Star Howl directly.
• Chen Li ordered Goetia to summon all seventy-two Pillars of Demon God, and Goetia gathered them around himself.

Chen Li empowered Goetia with six talisman abilities and the Beasts’ principles, then sealed the Final Grand Temple before Goetia confronted Star Howl. Star Howl easily threw Goetia down and pummeled him, but he refused to stop fighting.

• Chen Li strengthened Goetia with six talisman powers, then enclosed the Final Grand Temple in a wall of air and shut its last gate.

• Goetia struggled to rise and continue fighting despite Star Howl’s overwhelming assault.

Star Roar defeated Goetia by turning the Demon God Pillars into his own force and brought him before Chen Li. Chen Li then suggested that Goetia change humanity by personally killing the people he considered bad, leaving Goetia stunned.

• Star Roar mistook Goetia’s resemblance to Nanook for a target and beat him until Goetia’s braid snapped.

Chen Li forced Goetia into a punishment assignment, and Star Xiao took him to the Honkai: Star Rail world to train by striking Nanook. Goetia slapped the Aeon of Destruction with the Slap Gloves, but the blow instantly cost him his right arm.

• Chen Li made Goetia agree to work six jobs alone in the Weekly Instance until he understood Solomon, found the joy of life, and became the King of Humans.
• Star Xiao persuaded Chen Li to let her take Goetia to the Honkai: Star Rail world and borrowed his Slap Gloves to help Goetia gain Nanook's favor.
• Star Xiao brought Goetia before Nanook and ordered him to slap the Aeon of Destruction.
• Goetia struck Nanook's cheek with his Magic Skill-enhanced hand, and his right arm immediately evaporated while the Slap Gloves floated beside Nanook.

Goetia charged Nanook through a black hole with a bowl of Chen Li’s god-poisoning food, losing both arms before Nanook granted him the power of Destruction. Chen Li restored Goetia and fused that power into his own system, leaving Goetia a powerful Descender-class being, while Star Howl’s claim that Goetia had confessed to Nanook startled Chen Li.

• Star Howl forced Goetia to put on the Slap Gloves and attack Nanook, promising Resurrection Cards and a chance to meet Solomon.
• Goetia rushed through a black hole and smashed a bowl of Judgment of the Hour onto Nanook’s face, sacrificing both arms in the attack.
• Nanook’s gaze granted Goetia immense Destruction power and began corrupting the wills of the 72 Pillars of Demon God.
• Chen Li used the Wondrous Brush and the Horse Talisman to restore Goetia, remove the corruption, and fuse his power with the Path of Destruction.
• Chen Li explained that Goetia had become a Descender-class being with the potential to rival an Emanator.

• Chen Li allowed Goetia to see Solomon again, provided he reported for work in the Weekly Instance after building it.
• At the Destiny Maid Cafe, Goetia saw Roman wearing VR glasses and hugging a Honkai Beast, declared that Goetia was dead, and walked away.
• Mash told Roman to apologize, so he followed Goetia toward the Simulated Universe and asked Herta and Little Herta where he had gone.
• Herta and Little Herta explained that Goetia had confessed to Nanook, fed Nanook Judgment of the Hour, and been appointed a Great Extinguisher.
• Yukari told Roman that Goetia was the monster in the Weekly Instance and asked whether he wanted to challenge him.
