Chapter Summaries

Li Mu used the Mirror Star Lord's identity to collect corpses while the Star Alliance crushed a civil war sparked by more than two million myths losing their True Spirits. With War Ancient City destroyed and the Star Alliance regrouping near Phoenix Volcano, Li Mu counted his gains and prepared to confront the Warden.

• Myths who lost their True Spirits erupted into violence in War Ancient City, and Li Mu suppressed them while gathering their corpses into the Blood Source Gourd.
• The Time Star Lord's hidden curse failed to lure the mastermind, and the Time Star Lord began suppressing the chaos as well.
• The War Star Lord returned, and nearly three thousand Star Lords eventually crushed the rebellion after more than ten days of fighting.
• Li Mu collected nearly one million divine corpses, while the War Star Lord took about half of the remaining corpses and many others were destroyed or escaped.
• The Star Alliance settled near Phoenix Volcano after War Ancient City was reduced to ruins, and Li Mu began preparing to deal with the Warden.

After advancing to the fourth True Spirit Transformation, Li Mu prepared several treasures for further evolution and planned to kill the Titan Star Lord to refine the Tiger Soul Fierce Weapon. He disguised himself as the War Star Lord and entered the Titan Star Lord’s residence while the War Star Lord remained in seclusion.

• Li Mu used the Nightmare Curse Art and Star Emblem Mirror Eye to weaken the Warden’s resistance and erase memories from his true spirit.
• The Blood Source Gourd evolved into an Origin Sacred Relic, and Li Mu devoured it to complete his fourth True Spirit Transformation.
• Li Mu invested Spark Evolution Points to evolve the Phoenix and arranged for the Bag of Greed, Karmic Fire Red Lotus, and Tiger Soul Fierce Weapon to grow stronger.
• Li Mu chose the Titan Star Lord as his target, reasoning that the War Star Lord’s cultivation would soon leave the Titan Star Lord temporarily unguarded.
• Li Mu confirmed that the War Star Lord was in seclusion, disguised himself as him, and entered the Titan Star Lord’s residence in Spark City.

Li Mu lured the Titan Star Lord into the Underworld and ambushed him with a series of attacks that exploited his hidden heart weakness. After the Titan Star Lord’s dying counterattack failed, Li Mu captured him and began devouring his body.

• Li Mu disguised himself as the War Star Lord, convinced the Titan Star Lord that the Time Star Lord had caused the Star Alliance’s civil war, and proposed they capture him.
• Li Mu used the Gate of War to take the Titan Star Lord to the Underworld, where he attacked with the Tiger Soul Fierce Weapon.
• Li Mu used Mirror Realm ambushes and Red Lotus Karmic Flame to strike the Titan Star Lord’s heart, exploiting a weakness unknown even to the War Star Lord.
• The wounded Titan Star Lord sealed Li Mu inside his body and unleashed destructive lightning, while Li Mu prepared a final attack.
• Li Mu pierced the Titan Star Lord’s throat and brain with the Tiger Soul Fierce Weapon and Great Five Elements Samsara Divine Light, exhausting his vitality.
• Li Mu captured the temporarily weakened Titan Star Lord in the Blood Source Gourd and began devouring him with the Tiger Soul Fierce Weapon.

After the Titan Star Lord was killed, the Star Alliance blamed the Abyss Will and split over whether to wage war. Meanwhile, Li Mu's Tiger Soul Fierce Weapon evolved, and he chose it over the Karmic Fire Red Lotus for his future fusion.

• The Titan Star Lord's incarnations and avatars died from the Red Lotus Karmic Flame, clearing the War Star Lord of suspicion and provoking the Star Alliance's fury.
• The War Star Lord declared war on the Abyss Will, but the Star Lords rejected an all-out conflict, so it ended the meeting and planned to wait until the Alliance was forced to unite.
• The Star Alliance's leaders acted cautiously and delegated dangerous tasks to avatars, slowing its expansion and giving the Spark Alliance a chance to recover.
• Li Mu's Tiger Soul Fierce Weapon evolved into a nine-colored Spark Artifact with new origin traits, including Tiger Soul Transformation into a fourth-turn true spirit Spark White Tiger.
• Li Mu decided to fuse with the Tiger Soul Fierce Weapon at the fifth turn instead of the Karmic Fire Red Lotus.

After the Phoenix became a Primeval Phoenix, it gained the Primordial Fusion Technique, letting Li Mu fuse with the ship and unlock new levels of power, defense, and True Spirit Reincarnation. Having adapted to the technique, Li Mu judged he could face a seventh-transformation True Spirit and set his sights on testing the Time Star Lord.

• The Phoenix completed its transformation into a Primeval Phoenix and gained the Primordial Fusion Technique and Primordial Ship Armament.
• Li Mu merged with the Phoenix, perfectly combining their power and enabling the ship to achieve trinity fusion.
• Li Mu realized the Shipboard Spark could create a simulated True Spirit for piloting the Phoenix and resurrection, explaining how the Primeval Phoenix's former captain had survived through a feigned death.
• Li Mu activated Primordial Ship Armament and discovered that the Phoenix could merge into his body, trading some destructive power for greater agility and defense.
• After several hours of adapting, Li Mu found that the technique accelerated his True Spirit Reincarnation and estimated he could reach his fifth transformation in about half a year.
• Li Mu estimated that he could now fight a seventh-transformation True Spirit and prepared to test the Time Star Lord while seeking the Time Root.

Li Mu erased the Warden’s True Spirit memories, devoured Him, and seized the Space Root and other powers. He deepened his control over the Dimension Law Root but postponed visiting the higher dimension, while the Miracle Magic Hat’s evolution stalled because it needed a power to balance space.

• Li Mu used a nightmare curse and the Mirror Demon clone to erase the Warden’s True Spirit memories, then erased His dream self.
• Li Mu disguised himself as the Warden and devoured His body, taking His Space Root, Primeval Star Emblem, and Primordial Ancient Demon bloodline while leaving His trinity power unfused.
• Li Mu placed the Warden’s trinity power and remains into the Miracle Magic Hat and let it devour the Space Root as he tested the Dimension Law Root’s growing abilities.
• Li Mu learned that the higher and lower dimensions had different time flows and decided to wait until he had seized the Time Root before traveling upward.
• The Miracle Magic Hat’s evolution ran into difficulty because focusing only on space would waste its other powers, and the Time Star Lord’s remains seemed best suited to balance it.

The Time Star Lord used the Time Root to repair the Primordial Star Map, while Li Mu tried to infiltrate it and was discovered. The Time Star Lord pursued Li Mu, mistook him for the Warden, and invited him to reminisce, giving Li Mu a chance to disguise himself as the Warden.

• The Time Star Lord decided to use the Time Root to repair the Primordial Star Map in the Starwatch Tower.
• Li Mu sensed the Primordial Star Map activating and tried to invade it through the Primordial System, but the repaired map resisted and revealed his presence to the Time Star Lord.
• The Time Star Lord stopped time around the Starwatch Tower, but Li Mu escaped into an inner spatial dimension and fled Star City.
• The Time Star Lord pursued Li Mu, and the two outran the other giants who had followed them from Star City.
• The Time Star Lord called for them to stop and reminisce, apparently mistaking Li Mu for the Warden, and Li Mu decided to impersonate him.

Li Mu confronted the Time Star Lord, who attacked after growing suspicious of his questions about Emperor Heart. Li Mu nearly killed him, but the Time Star Lord escaped with his head while his body remained trapped.

• Li Mu asked the Time Star Lord about Emperor Heart, prompting the Time Star Lord to suspect him and launch a time-based attack.
• Li Mu redirected the Time Star Lord’s sword strike into the Starlight World and pierced his heart with the Tiger Soul Fierce Weapon.
• Li Mu trapped the Time Star Lord in a nightmare, burned him with the Karmic Fire Red Lotus, and severed his head while confining his body in the Starlight World.
• The Time Star Lord revealed his true form, used a star clock to restore his head, and suffered further attacks from Li Mu’s Red Lotus Blood Curse and Great Five Elements Samsara Divine Light.
• The Time Star Lord sacrificed part of his hair to trap Li Mu and escaped with his head, leaving Li Mu to deal with his imprisoned body.

Li Mu trapped and fought the Time Star Lord’s headless body inside Starlight World, defeating it after a brutal battle and sealing it in the Underworld. He realized the escaped head had concealed a lethal trump card, so he resolved to develop a powerful dimensional spell before facing it again.

• Li Mu used the Dimensional Root to trap the Time Star Lord’s headless body in Starlight World, while its past self sacrificed itself to destroy Li Mu’s Mirror Demon clone.
• The Time Star Lord fused its present self into its future self, reaching the eighth True Spirit Transformation, and Li Mu attacked it at close range using the Mirror Realm and his warship skill Size as Desired.
• Li Mu and the Time Star Lord traded injuries until the Time Star Lord used thousands of sword thrusts to open a small crack and send its escaped head information about the fight.
• Li Mu shattered the headless body’s remaining vitality and sealed it in the Underworld, where its body could become a time-attribute source sacred relic after its divine soul and True Spirit were erased.
• Li Mu suspected the Time Star Lord had withheld a trace of its former Primeval Life power and decided to create a dimensional spell before fighting it again.

Li Mu used the Creation Star God Furnace to fuse the Time Star Lord’s body with the Miracle Magic Hat as the Star Alliance marched toward the Abyss Sea to retaliate. The Time Star Lord reached the Life Star Lord in the Eternal Heaven Realm, recovered from its injuries, and agreed to return to the Star Alliance, while the Life Star Lord secretly counted on Li Mu to help it escape its predicament.

• Li Mu tempered the Time Star Lord’s body inside the Creation Star God Furnace and began merging it with the Miracle Magic Hat.
• The Star Alliance learned that the Time Star Lord and the damaged Primordial Star Map were missing, so it mobilized toward the Abyss Sea.
• Li Mu reasoned that the Time Star Lord had used the repaired Primordial Star Map to reach the Eternal Heaven Realm and suspected a plan involving the Three Thousand Source Stars.
• The Time Star Lord crossed the darkness surrounding the Eternal Heaven Realm, devouring Primordial Demon Spirits and stabilizing its injuries before reaching the Life Star Lord.
• The Life Star Lord healed the Time Star Lord and warned against repeating past mistakes; the Time Star Lord then left to continue the plan in the Star Alliance.
• After the Time Star Lord departed, the Life Star Lord revealed that it hoped Li Mu would open a way out of its predicament.

The Star Alliance agreed to hunt Mythical Level Nine beings and eventually ally with the Spark Alliance against the Abyss Will. Li Mu fused the Tiger Soul Fierce Weapon into his bones, advanced to the fifth True Spirit Reincarnation, and began building an army of Metal Baleful War Souls while discovering his new body could dispel the Nirvana Curse.

• The Time Star Lord persuaded the Star Alliance to prioritize hunting Mythical Level Nine beings and later join forces with the Spark Alliance against the Abyss Will.
• Li Mu completed preparations and merged the Tiger Soul Fierce Weapon into his skeleton, turning its power into part of his body.
• Li Mu's Spark White Tiger form advanced to the fifth True Spirit Reincarnation and gained the Metal Baleful War Body talent.
• Li Mu created a Metal Baleful War Soul from a mythical Corpse Soldier and began converting more Corpse Soldiers into an army.
• Li Mu examined his new traits and realized Metal Baleful Evil-Exorcism could remove the Nirvana Curse fused into his genes.

Li Mu mastered the Metal Baleful Divine Light and studied his new White Tiger Soldier Master talent, gaining powerful techniques and ways to build an army of Weapon Baleful Spirits and Soldier Puppets. After reaching the True Spirit Fifth Transformation, he prepared to turn powerful beings imprisoned in the underworld into White Tiger Soldier Puppets.

• Li Mu examined the White Tiger Soldier Master talent and learned it could create Weapon Baleful Spirits, command soldiers through the White Tiger Seven-Kill Formation, and unleash the White Tiger Army-Breaking Slash.
• Li Mu realized that the Primordial Soldier Master trait could grant him the power needed to eventually master the Soldier Master origin.
• Li Mu converted one-tenth of his Fierce God Weapon Aura into Weapon Baleful Spirits and used the Tiger Soul Fierce Weapon to reach fifty-percent unity of his true spirit, divine soul, and divine body, entering the True Spirit Fifth Transformation.
• Li Mu’s newly born Mythical Corpse Soldiers became Metal Baleful War Souls, which devoured one another until 521 survivors reached the Mythical Ninth Transformation.
• Li Mu decided to transform the imprisoned Primordial Evil God and the avatars of the Primeval Mist and the Time Evil Dragon into White Tiger Soldier Puppets, with Thousand-Hand Asura as another possible candidate.

Li Mu returned to Phoenix Volcano and surveyed Phoenix City, whose mythic level nine buildings and defenses had sustained the Spark Alliance. Satisfied with the city’s strength but aware of its limits, he planned to evolve it to the True Spirit Reincarnation level.

• Li Mu descended into Phoenix Volcano through the Primordial Star Map and received an enthusiastic welcome from the Spark Alliance.
• Li Mu inspected Phoenix City’s attributes and confirmed it had reached mythic level nine, with Song Xiaoyu, Rei Ayanami, Helena, and Hermione having helped oversee the city.
• Li Mu reviewed Phoenix City’s Miracle Buildings, including the Heavenly Ruins Tower, Path of Reincarnation, and Immortal Golden House, which sheltered and strengthened the alliance’s residents.
• Li Mu examined Phoenix City’s defenses, including the Divine Fire Beam Cannons and the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands Immortal-Slaying Tower, which could kill a level-nine Mythic.
• Li Mu decided Phoenix City needed to advance beyond mythic level nine and planned to evolve it to the True Spirit Reincarnation level.

Li Mu abandoned his attempt to make Phoenix City a True Spirit reincarnation clone after discovering that the Womb Transformation Spell would make his incomplete True Spirit reject it. He instead made Gaia Phoenix City's city spirit, and Gaia completed Phoenix City's True Spirit Reincarnation.

• Li Mu halted Phoenix City's evolution when merging the Primeval Parasol Tree clone with its city spark caused pain in his True Spirit.
• Li Mu discovered that the Womb Transformation Spell had made his True Spirit incomplete, so Phoenix City could not safely become his True Spirit reincarnation clone.
• Li Mu gave up on that plan and chose Gaia, who was being transformed into a Mirror Spirit, to become Phoenix City's city spirit.
• Li Mu used the Nirvana Divine Flame to separate the true spirit seed from the Primeval Parasol Tree and accelerated Gaia's transformation into a ninth-level mythical Mirror Spirit.
• Gaia became utterly loyal to Li Mu and began fusing his true spirit, the City Spark, and Phoenix City into a trinity.
• The City Spark and Gaia's true spirit each merged one-tenth into the body, allowing Phoenix City to complete its True Spirit Reincarnation.

Li Mu saw Gaia achieve True Spirit Reincarnation and inspected Phoenix City's new Primeval defenses, including the powerful Primeval Immortal-Slaying Formation. After using the formation to eliminate Star Alliance moles, Li Mu prepared to return to the Star Alliance and provoke its war with the Abyss Will.

• Gaia told Li Mu that, with sufficient resources, He could advance to the True Spirit Ninth Transformation without obstacles.
• Li Mu examined Phoenix City's evolved Primeval Parasol Tree, Myriad Phoenix Nest, and Nine Heavens and Ten Lands Immortal-Slaying Tower.
• Li Mu activated the Primeval Immortal-Slaying Formation and discovered that it could unleash repeated lethal attacks, provide defenses, and boost his combat power to the True Spirit Ninth Transformation.
• Li Mu used his enhanced Primeval Heart Sense to identify Star Alliance moles, and Phoenix City's divine flame beam cannons killed more than a thousand of them.
• Li Mu decided to conceal Phoenix City's True Spirit Reincarnation and return to the Star Alliance to ignite a war against the Abyss Will and reclaim the Abyss Root.

Li Mu attacked Desert Death to draw out the Abyss Will, captured Desert Death, and staged his own death while sending fabricated final words to Star City. The War Star Lord received the message accusing the Time Star Lord of being a Primordial Ancient Demon reincarnate and of framing Li Mu to conceal the Titan Star Lord’s murder.

• Li Mu confronted Desert Death and waited with him for the Abyss Will to arrive.
• The Abyss Will appeared, but Li Mu used the Mirror Realm to hold it back while attacking Desert Death.
• Li Mu destroyed Desert Death’s body and captured his consciousness in the Nightmare Dimension.
• The Abyss Will contaminated Li Mu’s divine soul, but Li Mu’s Innate Golden Fiend purified it as he used his Disguise Talent to fake his death.
• Li Mu sent mirror memories to Star City claiming the Time Star Lord was a Primordial Ancient Demon reincarnate who had restored the Primordial Star Map and met secretly with the Abyss Will.
• The War Star Lord viewed the memories, questioned their authenticity, and considered checking the Primordial Star Map to verify the accusation.

The War Star Lord and the other giants confronted the Time Star Lord over claims that they had stolen the Time Root and betrayed the Star Alliance. After the Flower Fairy revealed evidence left by the Mirror Star Lord, the War Star Lord attacked, leaving the Time Star Lord trapped and seeking escape.

• The War Star Lord showed the other giants the Mirror Star Lord’s pre-death memories, prompting them to suspect the Time Star Lord had colluded with the Abyss Will.
• The War Star Lord and six giants sealed the Starwatch Tower with their Origin Sacred Artifacts and confronted the Time Star Lord about repairing the Primordial Star Map.
• The Time Star Lord presented the still-damaged Primordial Star Map, but the Flower Fairy revealed the Mirror Star Lord’s hidden evidence: a strand of the Time Star Lord’s hair containing the Time Root.
• The Wisdom Star Lord confirmed that the hair and its Time Root power were genuine, and the War Star Lord decided the Time Star Lord had to be eliminated.
• The War Star Lord attacked with the Spear of War as the Time Star Lord realized they had been framed and chose to seek a way out.

The Time Star Lord summoned his past and future selves to fight off the other Star Lords, then used his past life's power to cripple the Space Star Lord. The Star Lords fled, while the Time Star Lord headed to the Eternal Heaven Realm to seek the Life Star Lord's help before the backlash took hold.

• The War Star Lord, Sword Dao Star Lord, and Myriad Buddha Star Lord attacked the Time Star Lord as his past self from his previous life materialized.
• The Destruction Star Lord and Space Star Lord placed curses on the attackers' weapons, but the Time Star Lord's future self blocked the Spear of War and suffered a wound from the combined assault.
• The Wisdom Star Lord equipped the War Star Lord with Origin Battle Armor, and the Space Star Lord transported him to the Spear of War so he could attack the future self.
• The dying future self accelerated time to summon the past self early, who recognized the Disguise Star Lord as the Flower Fairy and redirected his attack toward the Space Star Lord.
• The past self used Time Annihilation to permanently reduce the Space Star Lord's power to Mythic Level Six, prompting the War Star Lord and the other Star Lords to flee.
• The Time Star Lord refrained from pursuing them and returned to the Eternal Heaven Realm to seek treatment from the Life Star Lord.

Li Mu’s scheme drove the Time Star Lord from the Star Alliance and redirected its anger toward the Abyss Will. The Spark Alliance and Star Alliance tentatively agreed to ally against their enemies, while Li Mu anticipated that the alliance would lead to conflict and leave the weaker Spark Alliance trapped.

• Li Mu observed the battle through Flower Fairy’s eyes and concluded that the Time Star Lord had escaped using his past-life power and connection to the Life Origin Controller.
• The Star Alliance eliminated the Time Star Lord’s followers, but the Time Star Lord escaped and became a wanted fugitive, deepening suspicion and distrust within the alliance.
• The Asura King entered Star City as an envoy and urged the Star Alliance to ally with the Spark Alliance, citing the Abyss Will and other looming threats.
• The War Star Lord proposed a vote, and Flower Fairy and the other giants supported a tentative alliance between the Spark Alliance and Star Alliance.
• Most Star Lords welcomed the alliance, while Li Mu watched the celebrations in Phoenix City and anticipated that the Spark Alliance would eventually face the Star Alliance alone.

As the Spark Alliance prepared for war with the Abyss Will, Li Mu trained its myths in the White Tiger Seven-Kill Formation and profited by selling them True Spirit Crystals in a mirrored dream. He then spread Spark Currency throughout the New World, setting the Bag of Greed on a path to evolve into the Root of Money.

• The Star Alliance halted its expansion as it and the Spark Alliance prepared for war, while myths across the New World raised their strength and cultivated personal legions.
• The last myth on Phoenix Volcano moved into Phoenix City, where Li Mu used the Nightmare Root to train the Spark Alliance's myths in the White Tiger Seven-Kill Formation.
• Li Mu sold True Spirit Crystals in the mirrored dream, helping nearly every Spark Alliance myth advance in cultivation and amassing vast resources for the Bag of Greed.
• The Bag of Greed transformed into a Spark Sacred Relic, gaining the potential to evolve its Origin of Money into the Root of Money if Spark Currency became widespread across the New World's civilizations.
• Li Mu generated Origin Currency projections and distributed them, then spread projections of the Bag of Greed; civilizations adopted Spark Currency as a strategic resource and civilizational currency.
