Chapter Summaries

Li Mu learned that Skynet’s future war with Heavenly Net and Earth Net had spread across the Milky Way, and that both sides had sent fleets back through time. After taking a Spacetime Source Core from Skynet, he left and used Heart Sense Perception on it, suspecting both artificial intelligences had betrayed him.

• Li Mu discovered that Skynet had been divided by a future conflict with Heavenly Net and Earth Net, whose fleets occupied the solar system while Skynet controlled Blue Star.
• Skynet explained how Spacetime Source Cores had enabled time travel, created parallel futures, and fueled an expanding war across the galaxy.
• Li Mu asked Skynet for a Spacetime Source Core, and a nanobot handed him a tiny silver-white crystal.
• Li Mu used Apparition to leave Skynet’s base, then examined the core with Heart Sense Perception while suspecting Skynet had deceived him.

Li Mu uncovered the Spacetime Source Core’s origins, forged it into a Spacetime Converter, and traveled to a parallel Blue Star. He arrived in a future where Skynet fought humanity’s resistance and prepared to destroy the weakest version of Skynet.

• Li Mu learned that the Observer Civilization had created the Spacetime Source Core to generate parallel worlds, then lost it when a Seedship-like warship destroyed their civilization.
• Li Mu remade the Time Turner using the Spacetime Source Core and converted a duplicate into a yellow Heaven Grade Spacetime Converter.
• The Spacetime Converter granted Li Mu time-mirror and spatial-traversal abilities, along with restricted travel between Terminator World parallel timelines.
• Li Mu detected Blue Star and eight parallel spacetime realms, then traveled to the earliest-born parallel world.
• Li Mu found that Skynet was fighting humanity’s resistance forces on a future Blue Star and judged that he could defeat it in under ten minutes.

Li Mu took control of Skynet, tracked down its hidden backups, and destroyed them while collecting two spacetime source cores from the timeline’s time machines. After upgrading the Spacetime Converter, he wiped out the replicated world and collected high-grade nanobots.

• Li Mu used the Shipborne Optical Computer and the Clairvoyance Spark to locate both time machines, then infiltrated Skynet and seized control of its main body and Terminators.
• The Shipborne Optical Computer found records of nine hidden Skynet copies, while Li Mu used Heart Sense Perception to locate the tenth copy fleeing aboard a spacecraft.
• Li Mu ordered Skynet to exterminate humanity and dismantled the time machines, adding their two spacetime source cores to the Spacetime Converter and tripling its attribute enhancement.
• Skynet drove humanity to extinction, and Phoenix caught and destroyed the final copy.
• Li Mu formed the Tree of Life from the Angel Bible, Spear of Destiny, Freedom Gundam, and Angel Gundam, then used it to destroy the replicated world and collect nanobots.

Li Mu traveled through the parallel worlds, harvesting Skynet and the replicas’ resources until the Tree of Life produced two high-quality fruits. After using them to strengthen himself and study spacetime, he created the Void Ring and the Time Magic Box.

• Li Mu found no Spark in the collapsed replica Blue Star, then traveled through the second parallel world and destroyed it after discovering it was set in the past.
• Li Mu reached the future third parallel world, took control of Skynet, and gathered HuoZhong Source Power while destroying the world and its Terminators.
• Li Mu explored the fourth, fifth, and sixth parallel worlds, where Skynet had become increasingly powerful and developed spacecraft.
• The Tree of Life stopped after producing a high-quality Fruit of Life and Fruit of Wisdom, which Li Mu ate to improve his physique, mind, intelligence, and comprehension.
• Li Mu used the Fruit of Wisdom to create the spatial spell Void Ring and the time spell Time Magic Box, then bound Void Ring to the bones of his fingers.

Li Mu entered the seventh parallel timeline, where Skynet had secretly infiltrated human society instead of destroying it, and uncovered its hidden control of the wealthy and powerful. After Skynet attacked him with missiles and other weapons, Li Mu shielded himself and let the Tree of Life devastate the world; Skynet then began preparing biochemical weapons.

• Li Mu took the Tree of Life to the seventh parallel timeline, where Human Civilization was still intact and Judgment Day had not occurred.
• Li Mu ordered the Shipborne Optical Computer to investigate anomalies and inferred that Skynet had turned wealthy people and high-ranking officials into Terminators to control society.
• After Skynet launched missiles at Mount Everest, Li Mu used the Void Rings to banish the nuclear weapons.
• Li Mu sent the Tree of Life into the Pacific Ocean, where its roots spread beneath the globe and triggered earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and widespread destruction.
• Skynet attacked Li Mu with nanobot-filled fish, underwater hydrogen bombs, and a massive missile barrage, but Li Mu countered the threats and repelled nuclear radiation with his soul force field.
• Skynet stopped its direct attacks and began preparing specially modified missiles carrying biochemical viruses.

Li Mu destroyed Skynet’s escape fleet and watched the seventh parallel world perish, then traveled to Saturn in the still-connected eighth world. Unaware that a ruthless duplicate of him was preparing to kill him, Li Mu entered the most dangerous parallel world yet.

• Li Mu repelled Skynet’s biochemical attack by absorbing the viruses with his Void Ring and burning them with Fiendfyre.
• The Eye of Baize detected Skynet’s spacecraft, and Li Mu destroyed them with Void Burst Bombs.
• Skynet seized humans as hostages during its final two days, but Li Mu survived the destruction of Blue Star and gained ten Spacetime Source Core fragments from the first seven worlds.
• Li Mu traveled to Saturn in the eighth parallel world, where he realized Red Queen Skynet might be able to cross between parallel worlds and posed a serious threat.
• At Skynet Headquarters, a black-suited duplicate of Li Mu prepared a warship resembling the Phoenix and vowed to kill the original Li Mu.

Li Mu strengthened Phoenix with a Light Matter Engine and destroyed Skynet’s fleets near Saturn, but their flagships kept escaping through spacetime jumps. He realized Skynet had baited him toward a trapped flagship, and the chapter ended with another Li Mu on the Eighth Parallel World’s Blue Star anticipating their meeting.

• Li Mu upgraded Phoenix’s Light Matter Engine, granting it the Light Quantum Hull ability to transform into light for ten seconds.
• Li Mu used the new ability to slip through Skynet’s encircling fleet and destroy nearly all its ships with a Void Burst Bomb barrage.
• Li Mu detected more fleets converging on Saturn and destroyed them, but each flagship escaped through a spacetime jump.
• Li Mu traveled between the Terminator Main World and the Eighth Parallel World to approach a flagship and try to capture it with the Void Ring.
• Li Mu sensed a trap at the last moment and withdrew the Void Ring, realizing Skynet had exploited his curiosity to lure him in.
• On Blue Star, another Li Mu watched the trap fail and looked forward to meeting his target.

Li Mu destroyed Blue Star with the Void Realm Starshatter Cannon, but the planet’s collapse revealed a golden counterfeit Phoenix piloted by an Observer Civilization remnant who claimed to be the real Li Mu. The two Phoenixes clashed, and Li Mu fled to probe his enemy’s abilities through the Mirror World.

• Li Mu piloted the Phoenix to Blue Star and fired a Void Realm shell, splitting the planet and triggering catastrophic disasters.
• Blue Star lost its magnetic field and gravity, then shattered under repeated Void Burst Bombs as a metallic golden phoenix emerged from its core.
• Li Mu accepted the golden phoenix’s information link and learned that its pilot had copied his identity and was a remnant of the Observer Civilization.
• The counterfeit Li Mu revealed that he planned to kill Li Mu and use him as HuoZhong Source Power before ending their communication.
• The golden phoenix trapped the Phoenix in a storm of spatial tremors and temporal disorder, and the ships exchanged devastating blows.
• The golden phoenix reversed time to repair its damage while Li Mu’s Phoenix recovered through Nirvana, and Li Mu accelerated away to use the Mirror World to assess the enemy.

Li Mu fought the counterfeit Phoenix across the eighth parallel world, but its time-based abilities eventually overwhelmed his ship and led to his capture. As the black-suited Li Mu celebrated, the real Li Mu smiled, suggesting he had prepared a way to exploit the counterfeit’s reliance on prediction.

• The counterfeit Phoenix caught up with the Phoenix, and Li Mu escaped into the Mirror World after losing their close-quarters fight.
• Li Mu tested the counterfeit Phoenix in the offline Mirror World and realized it was holding back because the Observer remnants wanted to capture him.
• Li Mu resumed the battle and fought the counterfeit Phoenix for more than two months, while the Phoenix’s Nirvana ability steadily weakened.
• The Phoenix’s final Void Realm Shell failed against the Spacetime Source Core, and the counterfeit Phoenix destroyed the ship and swallowed Li Mu.
• The black-suited Li Mu celebrated, while the swallowed Li Mu smiled because the counterfeit could not predict his Spark Phone or the Anchor of Fantasy.

Li Mu captured the Observer alive after resisting its attempt to take over his body, then helped the Phoenix cripple the counterfeit Bright Phoenix. He discovered the last Observer’s history and learned that it had built the enemy ship to infiltrate Spark World and avenge its civilization.

• The Observer reversed Li Mu’s time inside the Bright Phoenix, but Li Mu used the Time Magic Box to remain at full strength and wait for an opening.
• When the beak opened, Li Mu trapped the Observer in his domain, petrified its true body, and sent it into Mirror Void.
• The enemy ship fired its Super Main Cannon, but the Phoenix countered with its Void Realm Starshatter Cannon and forced its beak into the ship’s damaged neck.
• Li Mu brought the petrified Observer to the Asylum and used Heart Sense Perception to uncover its origins.
• Li Mu learned that the Observer had survived the destruction of its civilization, studied the mysterious flame beneath Blue Star, and built the counterfeit Bright Phoenix to infiltrate Spark World and seek revenge.

Li Mu seized the Bright Phoenix, gathered the Spacetime Source Core fragments, and recovered the core from Blue Star, where he discovered it had been prepared as a gift by the Store Manager. After destroying Skynet and returning to Golden Crow City, he restored the Spacetime Source Core, while the Store Manager’s motives remained unclear.

• Li Mu used an authorization command to take control of the Bright Phoenix and ordered it to gather the fifteen flagships.
• Li Mu destroyed the flagships, collected their Spacetime Source Core fragments, and piloted the Bright Phoenix into Blue Star of the main world.
• Li Mu found and refined the damaged Spacetime Source Core at Skynet Headquarters, learning that the Store Manager had prepared it for him.
• Li Mu destroyed Skynet’s main server, noticed a green fire seed where it had stood, and transferred Blue Star’s humans to the Soul Source Realm.
• Li Mu returned to Golden Crow City and spent several days removing and recovering the Spacetime Source Cores until the core was completely restored.

Li Mu merged the Spacetime Source Core into the Void Realm Starshatter Cannon, transforming it into a red Heaven Grade weapon with eighty-one parallel Void Realm Shells and powerful spacetime effects. After spending HuoZhong Source Power to enhance it, he gained a cannon that could strike with absolute certainty and control the spacetime laws around its targets.

• Li Mu weighed merging the Spacetime Source Core into the Mirror Void, Golden Crow City, or the Bright Phoenix, then chose the Void Realm Starshatter Cannon.
• Li Mu fused the Spacetime Source Core with the cannon’s spark, expanding the nine Void Realms and awakening intelligence in their light-element lifeforms.
• Li Mu spent Golden Crow City’s earnings on Spark Energy and used it to generate eighty-one parallel Void Realms, enabling the cannon to fire up to eighty-two shells per day.
• The Void Realm Starshatter Cannon became a red Heaven Grade weapon, and Li Mu invested 900,000 calories of HuoZhong Source Power to raise it to level 10.
• Li Mu gained a cannon with 100,000 attack strength, one-second charge and cooldown times, absolute accuracy, and the ability to manipulate spacetime around enveloped targets.

Li Mu tested the Void Realm Starshatter Cannon on Golden Crow City, then dismantled the Bright Phoenix and used its atomic metal to strengthen the Phoenix. He split the Bright Phoenix’s Super Main Cannon into two smaller weapons and began converting them in an attempt to create the first secondary cannon Spark.

• Li Mu used the Void Realm Starshatter Cannon to defeat Golden Crow City, first by reversing time at great cost and then by freezing time and collapsing space more efficiently.
• Li Mu dismantled the Bright Phoenix, keeping its Super Main Cannon intact and recovering its other components as atomic metal.
• Li Mu fused the atomic metal with Nirvana Flame and integrated the resulting material into the Phoenix, greatly improving its Nirvana regeneration and flame power.
• Li Mu decided to turn the Bright Phoenix’s Super Main Cannon into secondary cannons and commissioned a HuoZhong Professional to split it into two identical weapons.
• Li Mu used the Anchor of Fantasy to convert the two secondary cannons, hoping to create the first secondary cannon Spark.

Li Mu integrated the Spacetime Twin Cannons into the Phoenix and discovered that they let him fire and control Nirvana Flame over long distances. After visiting Rei Ayanami and seeing how the First Phoenix Empire had changed, he cut his vacation short when Phoenix Apostles began disappearing, sensing that someone was using them to lure him.

• Li Mu transformed the Phoenix's two secondary cannons into the Spacetime Twin Cannons and found that he could infuse their beams with Nirvana Flame and control it remotely.
• Li Mu tested the cannons in the Mirror World and saw that they could fire rapidly with considerable destructive power.
• Li Mu found Rei Ayanami sketching their first meeting, spent two days with her, and then took her on vacation to the First Phoenix Empire.
• Li Mu toured the transformed First Phoenix Empire, where magic and technology had reshaped its cities and environment.
• Li Mu ended the trip after Phoenix Apostles under his command went missing one after another and suspected an enemy was using them as bait.

Li Mu investigated the disappearance of the Phoenix Apostles and traced an ancient carving to Mars, where he discovered the magical battleship’s crew worshipping the Lord of the Purple Moon. He realized they had likely opened a gateway to another world, leaving the threat to the First Phoenix Empire unresolved.

• Li Mu found no trace of the missing Phoenix Apostles and suspected they had vanished into another world.
• Hermione brought Li Mu an ancient stone slab, which he restored with the Time Magic Box.
• Li Mu used Heart Sense Perception to learn that the slab had been carved on Mars and depicted beings fleeing there before traveling to Blue Star.
• Li Mu secretly traveled to Mars and found the First Phoenix Empire’s magical battleship hidden in a canyon.
• Li Mu discovered the crew praying to the Lord of the Purple Moon and concluded that they had opened a gateway and been turned into Its followers.

Li Mu uncovered the Lord of the Purple Moon’s followers on Blue Star and Mars, captured them, and discovered a ritual prepared to deal with him. He sealed the door to the other world and began searching Mars for any remaining traces of the Lord of the Purple Moon.

• Li Mu suspected the Space Development Department staff of attacking the Phoenix Apostle and captured them in the Asylum Mirror, where he confirmed that some had become followers of the Lord of the Purple Moon.
• Li Mu learned that the followers had used magic to attack Phoenix Apostles and that grown-up Harry Potter was among the Wizards they had corrupted.
• Li Mu returned to Mars, separated the magic warship’s optical computer from the ship, and found a hidden golden-patterned door in a canyon.
• Li Mu captured the magic warship and its crew before the followers could perform their ritual, then learned that the ritual was meant to deal with him.
• Li Mu sealed the area around the door and searched Mars for corrupted objects while arranging for the ritual to be deciphered and a Special Seed to be delivered.

Li Mu purified Mars, then sent a heavily equipped clone through the door to investigate the world beyond it. The clone arrived in a garbage dump and discovered a human-dominated fortress city with powerful alchemy and magic.

• Li Mu used a Sacred Radiance spark to destroy the Lord of the Purple Moon’s hidden stone monsters and cleanse the door, which opened again.
• After Fantasy Conversion failed, Li Mu created a clone, equipped it with powerful artifacts and supplies, and sent it through the door.
• Li Mu lost contact with the clone as the Phoenix blocked the door, and his main body began cultivating in seclusion.
• The clone arrived in a garbage dump, reapplied the Illusionary Body Curse, and used Apparition to reach a hidden vantage point.
• The clone surveyed a fortress city with towering walls, factories, monster-filled sewers, and scarce food, and concluded that humans formed most of its population.

Li Mu cautiously explored the world he had teleported into, using transformed house-elves to salvage books and objects from the surrounding trash heaps. After deciphering a history book, he learned that he was on Abyss, a vast planet now suffering through an age of darkness and monsters.

• Li Mu waited half a day without seeing any outsiders, then used the Polymorph Spell to turn trash into house-elves that searched for valuable items.
• Li Mu restored the gathered books and tools, duplicated the books with the Hyperthymesia Mirror, and used Heart Sense Perception to understand and memorize their contents.
• Li Mu learned that Abyss had passed through four eras, with the first three ending in the disappearance of the gods, the destruction of civilizations, and humanity's conflict with the gods.
• Li Mu read that the current Age of Abyssal Calamity began when the sun of the God of Light stopped shining and began releasing black fog that spawned monsters.
• Li Mu learned that gods had split into righteous and evil factions, leaving Abyss Star's inhabitants to endure widespread chaos and dangerous nights.

Li Mu learned about the Maya Empire and the Western Continent’s surviving nations while reading inside the Precursor Light Wheel. When night brought a wave of evil creatures, he escaped their notice by moving into the Asylum Mirror, leaving him curious about the creature trapped in the Mirror Void.

• Li Mu learned that the Maya Empire, Egyptian Empire, and Atlantis City-State had survived on the Western Continent, and that nearby Mountain City belonged to the Maya Empire.
• Li Mu saw three moons and a black sun rise, spreading evil black mist around the Precursor Light Wheel.
• After night fell, the mist formed evil creatures that slaughtered one another until a powerful wolf-like monster emerged as the victor.
• Li Mu watched the creatures approach the Precursor Light Wheel in the Mirror World and used the Void Ring to trap one in the Mirror Void.
• Li Mu moved into the Asylum Mirror, concealed his aura, and watched the other creatures lose interest in the Precursor Light Wheel and head toward Mountain City.

Li Mu dissected evil creatures and discovered how black radiance sustained and corrupted them before examining the battle at Mountain City. The city’s defenders fought off hundreds of thousands of creatures, while Li Mu wondered whether the gods’ division between righteous and evil reflected different preferences for faith.

• Li Mu petrified an evil creature, examined its corpse, and found that black radiance gathered in its head and powered its body.
• Li Mu dissected copies of the creature in the Asylum and learned that Nirvana Flame and demon god power could resist black radiance.
• Li Mu returned to reality and saw hundreds of thousands of wolf-like evil creatures attacking Mountain City as its Wizards, cannons, airships, and metal golems defended it.
• Two four-headed wolves disrupted the defenders with mental confusion and coordinated the attacking creatures, allowing some to reach the city walls.
• Li Mu discovered that black mist greatly reduced environmental damage from extraordinary powers and speculated that righteous and evil gods might simply prefer different kinds of faith.
