After dispatching four Golden Crow Secondary Souls to reincarnate in powerful families and races, he explored the main universe and arrived at a nearby star system to join an expedition.

• Li Mu found a nearby expedition request on the Spark Network, signed a Spark contract, and piloted the disguised Phoenix into a star system littered with battle wreckage, where three Spark battleships were docked nearby.

Li Mu joined Yuan Hongzhuang’s hunt for an aberrant monster civilization, then used the Golden Crow’s fleet and the ancient Star God Totem to kill one of its two star-devouring monsters. He pursued and captured the other monster king with the Eight-Armed Serpent Dragon, leaving the group to see whether the spoils would cover the cost of controlling it.

• Yuan Hongzhuang showed Li Mu how aberrant monsters had destroyed her battleships and explained that their civilization might be led by a being above LV80.
• Li Mu and the other captains arrived in a star system where two enormous monsters were devouring stars, far more than their intelligence had reported.

• Li Mu realized that controlling the Eight-Armed Serpent Dragon had already cost him more than ten million HuoZhong Source Coins.

Li Mu and Yuan Hongzhuang destroyed a monster civilization, divided its spoils, and earned battle merit from its memories. Seeking a faster way to explore the universe, Li Mu bought the black-quality Deep Space Demon Eye and awakened its dormant power with Black Goat Demon God essence blood, ending with a powerful new radar equipped on the Phoenix.

He discovered a valuable system with a cyan life planet and applied to govern it, leaving the Spark Alliance to decide whether to approve its development and settlement.

• Li Mu upgraded the Life Amulet to LV40 and used the Blood Sea and rituals to raise his physique to 801 points while waiting for the Blood God Spawn to mature.

Li Mu learned that the star systems he had explored belonged to the depleted former territory of the Muya Civilization, then searched a decisive-battle site for clues to hidden war fortresses. He recovered coordinates from a destroyed shipborne optical computer and found a rare artificial energy lifeform, which could be worth at least one billion HuoZhong Source Coins and had another use for him.

After his Blood God Spawns matured, he absorbed their feedback and began his second transformations of mind and body.

• Li Mu used advanced conversion and Blood Bewildering Mist to create a Fireseed Mechanical Spirit, then fused with it to gain Mechanical Control and Mechanical Spirit Conversion.
• Li Mu created one thousand King-class Battleship replicas from Blood Bewildering Mist, empowered two hundred with the Star God Sacred Seal, and failed to convert enough mist into a Phoenix replica.
• Li Mu searched the battlefield ruins and discovered an already-raided subsidiary world deep in subspace, then continued looking for Muya technology.

• A three-meter-tall mechanical lifeform appeared in White God's treasury between Li Mu and the Sparks.

Li Mu defeated White God's treasury guardian by strengthening his Hull Fusion Technique and using his Blood God Spawns to seize control of it. He escaped the war fortress before it self-destructed and discovered that the red HuoZhong he recovered was a key to the Dominator Battlefield instance.

• Li Mu maxed out his Hull Fusion Technique, fused with Phoenix, and used his miniature warships and Void Rings to breach the guardian's defenses.
• Li Mu sent Blood God Spawns into the guardian to seize control of its body, then had Helena identify its treasures and warn that the treasury would self-destruct.
• Li Mu used the Eight-Armed Serpent Dragon to collect the treasury's treasures and dismantle the war fortress's superpowered warship production line before the fortress turned to ash.
• Li Mu inspected the recovered resources, superpower fruits, HuoZhong, and Star Life Origin Blood, then identified the red Void Key as a one-time key to the Dominator Battlefield.

Li Mu submitted the Spark Machine Spirit’s manufacturing technology to the Spark Alliance and received enough battle merits to become a first-class marquis. He spent heavily to strengthen his Spark Phone, discovered that Life Seeds could reset its enhancement level without erasing earlier boosts, and left it at LV20 while awaiting the results.

• Li Mu returned to Golden Crow Star, established a psionic warship production line, and used Heart Sense Perception to learn the Spark Machine Spirit’s manufacturing technology and artificial Fireseed formula.
• With Song Xiaoyu’s help, Li Mu submitted the manufacturing technology to the Spark Alliance, prompting Red Lotus Speaker to personally collect the report at Golden Crow Star.

Li Mu unlocked the Spark Phone’s ability to make special-effects edits permanent, using it to alter a planet’s atmosphere and grant skills to Blood God Spawns. After upgrading the phone and preparing to recruit a gunner, he tracked down a high-level wild gunner in Night City and began discussing the revenge mission that had left her without an employer.

• Li Mu searched for a wild gunner and chose a former LV70 gunner whose condition for employment was that someone avenge her destroyed Seedship Star Destroyer.
• Li Mu traveled aboard the Phoenix to Hunter Star and went to Night City, where the gunner opened the door and appeared with a mechanical arm and a mechanical construct replacing her breasts.

Li Mu recruited Tong Xue as the Phoenix’s dedicated gunner, promising to help her avenge the destruction of Frost. After she became his second special Blood God Spawn and discovered the Phoenix’s extraordinary armaments, Tong Xue revealed that the Blood River Cult’s Pope had destroyed Frost; Li Mu accepted the danger and prepared to help her grow stronger.

• Li Mu offered Tong Xue a place aboard his Seedship and promised to help her get revenge, and Tong Xue accepted after realizing her other options were limited.
• At the spaceport, Tong Xue mistook the disguised Phoenix for a Seed Cruiser, but Li Mu’s first-class marquis credentials convinced her that he had not misled her.
• Li Mu required Tong Xue to become his Blood God Spawn, and she signed a high-authority Spark Contract to ensure he would help her complete her revenge.

• Tong Xue revealed that the Blood River Cult’s Pope had sunk Frost six years earlier and killed its crew, including her sister Tong Shuang, while the Pope was secretly an undercover agent of the Spark Alliance.
• Li Mu accepted the risk of provoking the Pope, promised to settle Tong Xue’s grudge, and gave her two orange gunner Seeds and two hundred million HuoZhong Source Coins.

Tong Xue tested her newly enhanced gunner Sparks by directing Phoenix’s devastating Super Main Cannon attacks against Mechanical War Star. As the mechanical fortress retaliated with a planet-wide cannon barrage, Phoenix withstood the assault while Tong Xue prepared to strike its weak points.

• Tong Xue enhanced the Glory Badge and Glory Ring to their maximum level, raising her professional and Spark skills by ten levels.
• Li Mu calculated that Tong Xue could boost Phoenix’s Void Realm Starshatter Cannon to deal up to 55–60 million damage with its ultimate shot.
• Li Mu brought Phoenix to Mechanical War Star, created an isolated offline Mirror World around it, and began a combat test with Tong Xue.
• Tong Xue used Void Intuition and controlled Void Realm Shells to destroy Mechanical War Star’s deployed fleet in under twenty seconds.
