Chapter Summaries

Li Mu used Hull Fusion with Phoenix to capture and shrink a Kaiju, then sent it through the Precursors’ wormhole carrying a locator to reveal their planet’s coordinates. He left the story awaiting the locator’s transmission so Phoenix could find the Precursors’ world.

• Li Mu severed his mental fusion with Phoenix, lured a Kaiju to an uninhabited Pacific island, and activated Hull Fusion.
• Li Mu repeatedly cast amplified Petrification Curses to immobilize the Kaiju, then shrank it and stored it in an enchanted cage.
• Li Mu arrived at the Pan Pacific Defense Corps Headquarters and decided humanity had to witness despair before he could unite it under the Phoenix Empire.
• Li Mu placed a protected spatial coordinate locator inside the captured Kaiju and sent it through the wormhole near Guam to the Precursors’ planet.

Li Mu explained how the fabricated Phoenix Empire and the exposed location of the Precursors' home world could provoke a full-scale invasion and push Blue Star toward joining his empire. During a meeting with world representatives, the Precursors began sending waves of self-melting Kaiju through the Guam wormhole, and Li Mu claimed he could not save humanity as the smaller nations erupted in anger.

• Li Mu expected the Precursors to investigate the Phoenix Empire and launch a large-scale probe after receiving the spatial positioning transmitter.
• Li Mu appeared at the Pan-Pacific Joint Forces Headquarters and used Legilimency to give national representatives memories about the fictional Phoenix Empire.
• An alarm announced that repeated waves of Kaiju were emerging from the seabed wormhole near Guam and melting themselves to pollute the seawater.
• Li Mu told the representatives that the Precursors had begun their invasion and that he could only watch humanity face destruction.
• Representatives from small countries angrily accused Li Mu of abandoning them and questioned whether the Precursors existed.

Li Mu explained that the Phoenix Empire would not wage war against the Precursors to save Blue Star, and promised to evacuate ten thousand people in ten days. After humanity learned how to destroy the wormhole, a massive Kaiju assault overwhelmed its mechs and plunged the world into chaos, leaving nuclear strikes as its last resort.

• Li Mu silenced several representatives and explained that the Precursors had claimed Blue Star long ago, so the Phoenix Empire would not intervene in the conflict.
• Li Mu rejected a small-nation representative’s request for Phoenix Empire protection and said he would take ten thousand people from Blue Star in ten days.
• Dr. Newt developed a way to read Kaiju memories, confirming the Precursors’ involvement and revealing that a nuclear bomb detonated on the far side could destroy the wormhole.
• Fifteen Kaiju attacked coastlines around the world, destroyed all six hastily assembled mechs, and tore apart Gipsy Danger before its pilots escaped.
• Li Mu watched the coastal cities fall as people rioted, governments prepared nuclear strikes, and nuclear submarines launched a suicidal attack on the wormhole near Guam.

Li Mu revealed the Precursors’ threat to the world, destroyed the Kaiju attacking coastal cities, and declared that he had defected from the Phoenix Empire to protect Blue Star. He upgraded the Phoenix’s Red Lotus Laser Cannon and reached the Guam wormhole, where a Level Seven Kaiju emerged fully.

• A controlled representative exposed the Pan-Pacific Joint Defense Force’s meeting, revealing that the Kaiju were weapons of the Precursors and that the Phoenix Empire had abandoned Blue Star.
• A Level Seven Kaiju emerged partly from the wormhole and destroyed the Nuclear Submarine fleet with a shockwave.
• Li Mu summoned the Phoenix and killed the Kaiju attacking coastal cities, prompting nations to halt their missile launches.
• Li Mu declared his defection from the Phoenix Empire as people debated whether to establish a New Phoenix Empire or reject alien rule.
• Li Mu spent HuoZhong Source Power to upgrade the Red Lotus Laser Cannon to Level 2, then descended into the sea near Guam and fought his way toward the wormhole.
• A Level Seven, apparently bird-like Kaiju emerged fully from the wormhole as Li Mu arrived.

Li Mu used the Phoenix to battle the Precursors’ Level 7 Pterosaur King in space while humanity watched. The Phoenix and Pterosaur King traded attacks, and Li Mu expected the Seedship’s defenses and regeneration to win the fight.

• Li Mu taunted the Level 7 Kaiju with Legilimency, let its spatial shockwave damage the Phoenix, and repaired the hull with Nirvana.
• Li Mu fired the Phoenix’s secondary cannons at the Kaiju, prompting the Precursors to force it fully through the damaged wormhole.
• The Kaiju emerged as the Pterosaur King, and Li Mu led it out of the ocean and into space so humanity could witness the battle.
• The Phoenix evaded the Pterosaur King’s attacks and repeatedly struck it with the Red Lotus Laser Cannon, but its spatial shield deflected the shots.
• The Pterosaur King teleported above the Phoenix and slowed it with spatially magnetic insects, then sustained a deep neck wound from a laser attack.
• The Pterosaur King circled the slowed Phoenix and stripped away its Thorn Energy Shield, while Li Mu relied on the Phoenix’s hull strength, regeneration, and the cannon’s defense-ignoring damage.

Li Mu defeated the Pterosaur King with disguised nuclear bombs and gained a Spatial Nanoworm Nest module. He returned to the Pan-Pacific Joint Forces Headquarters as a celebrated savior, while planning to eliminate the Resistance Force and establish the Phoenix Empire.

• Li Mu studied the Pterosaur King's abilities and prepared a counterattack as the Phoenix's Thorn Energy Shield broke.
• Li Mu used Hull Fusion and Apparition to plant Polymorph Spell-disguised nuclear bombs on the Pterosaur King, then detonated them from a distance.
• Li Mu found that the Pterosaur King had dropped a Spatial Nanoworm Nest spark and fused it into the Phoenix's repair bay.
• Li Mu learned that spatial nanoworms could aid hyperspace travel and disrupt enemy ships, though producing them quickly required HuoZhong Source Power.
• Li Mu returned to the Pan-Pacific Joint Forces Headquarters, where female soldiers welcomed him, and he planned to eliminate the Resistance Force and establish the Phoenix Empire.

Li Mu rejected a victory ball, repaired damage and treated the injured around the world, then revealed the Precursors’ threat and humanity’s origins while advocating for the Phoenix Empire. He exposed opposition to his plan and prepared to eliminate the remaining factions before the Civilization Spark appeared.

• Li Mu refused the M Country President’s victory ball and urged governments to evacuate coastal residents ahead of another invasion.
• Li Mu traveled across coastal cities, restoring damaged buildings and healing the injured for several days.
• Li Mu told reporters that the Precursors could send Level Seven to Level Nine Kaiju within six months, that humanity across the Milky Way descended from the Spark Civilization, and that a united planet could awaken a Civilization Spark.
• Li Mu’s interview spread worldwide, increasing his support as officials failed to suppress it.
• Li Mu arranged for powerful officials and military commanders to wear Spark Masks, and hackers exposed scandals among opponents of the Phoenix Empire, provoking public fury.
• Li Mu let a small opposition movement take shape so he could wipe it out before establishing the Phoenix Empire.

Li Mu unified Blue Star under the Phoenix Empire after a global referendum, then completed his conquest and condensed a Civilization Spark. The Spark began changing the planet and linking it to the Harry Potter world, leaving Blue Star with emerging traces of magic.

• Li Mu ordered the Shipborne Optical Computer to monitor the global network as the referendum began, and over 95% of voters supported unification under the Phoenix Empire.
• People checked the streets for signs of fraud, and scattered opponents returned home as nations' armies moved in to place the globe under temporary control.
• Li Mu established the Phoenix Empire's framework, reorganized national armies into its legions, and secretly erased Resistance Force members and their memories.
• The Shipborne Optical Computer announced that the conquest was complete, and Li Mu's HuoZhong Source Power surged as a purple-quality Civilization Spark formed.
• Li Mu integrated the Civilization Spark into Blue Star, which quickly grew greener and healthier, while traces of magic began appearing through its connection to the Harry Potter world's Spark.

Li Mu upgraded the Phoenix’s weapons and defenses, secured a way to control the spatial wormhole, and oversaw the creation of enchanted Phoenix Apostles to protect the Phoenix Empire. The chapter left the empire with three powerful mechas as its final guardians.

• Li Mu upgraded the Red Lotus Laser Cannon and Thorn Energy Shield to LV5, raising the Phoenix to LV3.
• Li Mu invested in the Spatial Nanoworm Nest so he could control or destroy the wormhole if the Precursors became too dangerous, then upgraded the Elder Wand to LV6.
• Li Mu used Wind Tunnel Iron and the Vanishment Charm to create a smaller world around the Civilization Spark for scientists to use.
• Li Mu inspected the Jaeger manufacturing plant and explained how the Phoenix Apostle’s enchanted cockpit, body, and blade made it a powerful combat mecha.
• Li Mu left the Phoenix Empire with only three Phoenix Apostles because each ship-cleaving blade required nearly a thousand cards of HuoZhong Source Power to create.

Li Mu selected Leng Yan, Yuwen, and Du Chen to pilot the Phoenix Apostles and transformed them into Dragonblood Knights using Spark Potions. After they began merging with Kindling Tomes and training, three Level 4 Kaiju attacked their island.

• Li Mu reviewed the academy's candidates and chose Leng Yan, Yuwen, and Du Chen as the top land, air, and naval performers.
• Li Mu gave each of the three a Spark Dragon Blood Potion, and they endured painful blood replacements that made them Dragonblood Knights.
• Li Mu gave the trio Kindling Tomes and instructed them to merge with the sparks using their Mental Power.
• A few days later, Leng Yan fought Yuwen and Du Chen on an island near Guam, where all three demonstrated strength enough to kill Level 4 Kaiju.
• Three Level 4 Kaiju emerged from the sea and pounced toward the island.

Li Mu trained Leng Yan, You Wen, and Du Chen to use their new Phoenix Apostle mechs, then interrupted the exercise when the dormant wormhole began releasing jellyfish Kaiju. He destroyed a swarm of miniature Kaiju and discovered they had been made from Blue Star’s native marine life, leaving the source and purpose of the invasion unresolved.

• Leng Yan killed a Level 4 Kaiju, and You Wen and Du Chen defeated the other two before Li Mu arrived.
• Li Mu gave Leng Yan, You Wen, and Du Chen spatial rings containing their customized Phoenix Apostle mechs and began practical combat training.
• Li Mu used fire, water, and thunder dragons to push the three apostles into trouble and force them to learn to cooperate.
• The Deep Space Radar detected activity at the wormhole, so Li Mu abandoned training and flew the Phoenix toward the deep sea.
• Li Mu tracked a jellyfish Kaiju that was spawning tens of thousands of miniature Kaiju, captured some for analysis, and burned the rest.
• The Atomic Medical Bay found that the miniature Kaiju lacked Precursor genes and toxins and had instead been created from Blue Star’s native marine species.

Li Mu followed the Jellyfish Kaiju through the wormhole to reach the Precursors’ nest, hoping to learn how to control the Mini Kaiju threatening Blue Star’s marine life. Inside a colossal creature, he discovered captive Jellyfish People and learned more about the Precursors’ powers.

• Li Mu decided he had to reach the Precursors’ nest and obtain a way to control the Mini Kaiju before they wiped out marine life.
• Li Mu warned Phoenix Empire officials about the ocean threat, disguised himself as a Jellyfish Kaiju, and followed the remaining Jellyfish Kaiju through the wormhole.
• Li Mu emerged inside a giant creature’s oxygen-filled body, where he found a lake and a battered triangular battleship.
• Li Mu sent an alchemical eyeball into the battleship and discovered a Jellyfish Person controlled by a stinger-scorpion beetle.
• Li Mu used Legilimency to learn that the Precursors had captured the Jellyfish People’s battleship and forced its survivors to care for the Jellyfish Kaiju.
• Li Mu learned that the Precursors used spatial and biochemical technology, controlled biological weapons across space, and could spread powerful mental contamination.

Li Mu escaped the giant beast and surveyed the Precursors’ magma-covered world, then planned to use True Disguise to turn their own power against them. A nightmare revealed that capturing a Precursor alive would alert the entire race through their collective mind, so he changed his plan to study dead Precursors instead.

• Li Mu abandoned the Imperius Curse on the Jellyfish People and searched the giant beast until he found an exit on its back.
• Li Mu transformed into the Black Phoenix and rode a fire column out of the beast, discovering the Precursors’ magma world and its wormhole power system.
• Li Mu decided to cripple the Precursors before leaving and considered disguising himself as one of them.
• A Precursor sensed Li Mu’s presence and attacked, forcing him to flee more than ten kilometers away.
• Li Mu used the Nightmare Crystal Ball and learned that capturing a Precursor alive would alert the entire race through their collective mind.
• Li Mu abandoned his plan to capture one alive and decided to study dead Precursors instead.

Li Mu captured a Precursor by trapping it near a damaged lightning-collection device, then escaped pursuit and began examining the captive’s memories. He learned that Precursors extended their lives through repeated mental reincarnation.

• Li Mu sabotaged a remote lightning-collection device and prepared a spell trap for the Precursor who came to repair it.
• The trap cursed, weakened, and petrified the Precursor, and Li Mu stored it in the Phoenix before fleeing into the magma.
• A Precursor saucer pursued Li Mu, but the Phoenix resisted its heat and damaged its hull with Nirvana Flame, forcing it to retreat.
• Li Mu escaped to a concealed location, anesthetized the captive, and successfully extracted its memories with Legilimency.
• Li Mu discovered from the Precursor’s memories that its species used clones and mental contamination to transfer their consciousness and prolong their lives.

Li Mu learned that the Precursors sought other civilizations' technology and had launched a full-scale attack on Blue Star after judging its strength. He disguised himself as a Precursor and entered their nursery near the planet's core to infiltrate their civilization.

• Li Mu used Legilimency to learn about the Precursors' small population, their past defeat, and their plan to use Blue Star's humans to advance their civilization.
• Li Mu discovered that the Precursors had chosen war after debating whether to attack, and that they intended to flee if their enemy proved stronger.
• Li Mu transformed into a Precursor, killed the unconscious captive, and sent the corpse to a secluded lava pillar so the nursery would awaken a replacement.
• Li Mu traveled toward the planet's core, reached the nursery, and created a safe space outside it.
• Li Mu transformed into a Precursor, passed the nursery's scan, and entered through its spiraling door.

Li Mu burned the Precursor nursery, then disguised himself as one of the few surviving infants and passed the Precursors’ examinations. After waking early, he gained access to their knowledge and a Precursor Light Wheel, leaving him inside its vast space with a biochemical laboratory for creating Kaiju.

• Li Mu destroyed nearly all the reserve Precursors in the nursery with Fiendfyre and Nirvana Flame, then took the place of one surviving infant by transforming himself and falling asleep in its incubation chamber.
• The Precursors rescued six surviving infants and examined them, but Li Mu’s True Camouflage and Legilimency Defense concealed his identity and memories.
• The Precursors awakened Li Mu early and gave him half the standard resources because the nursery had been destroyed.
• Li Mu connected to a pulsating brain to learn the Precursors’ knowledge, then accepted a Precursor Light Wheel from the cardinal.
• Li Mu claimed the Precursor Light Wheel and entered its vast interior, where a Mother Body produced Kaiju materials and a floating city housed the Precursors’ biochemical laboratory.

Li Mu used his windfall of HuoZhong Source Power to transform his brain into a kindling organ, gaining greater Mental Power and a new talent. He discovered that Hyperthymesia Mirror could create functional projections only of things he understood well, leaving him with a powerful ability limited by his knowledge.

• Li Mu found that killing the Precursors had earned him nearly three hundred thousand calories of HuoZhong Source Power, which he decided to spend on strengthening himself.
• Li Mu raised his Transcendence Level from LV6 to level 10, then chose his brain for kindling transformation because he needed the transformation to reach LV11.
• Li Mu spent one hundred thousand calories of HuoZhong Source Power transforming his brain, which increased his calculating ability and raised his Mental Power to 29.9.
• Li Mu discovered the new talent Hyperthymesia Mirror and projected a basketball, an empty nuclear-bomb shell, and a functional wand.
• Li Mu realized that Hyperthymesia Mirror produced fully functional objects only when he understood how to make them, while unfamiliar objects appeared as empty shells.

Li Mu tested Hyperthymesia Mirror and realized it could create controllable living projections, then strengthened Camouflage and his equipment. He committed his remaining HuoZhong Source Power to spatial nanoworms, preparing to disable the Precursors’ spatial technology before attacking their civilization.

• Li Mu created a Rubber Rabbit and a Precursor with Hyperthymesia Mirror, discovering that living projections could act as fearless fighters with abilities matching their originals.
• Li Mu raised Camouflage to level 7 and Hyperthymesia Mirror to level 2, gaining the ability to use his extraordinary powers while disguised.
• Li Mu adapted his strength-enhancement plans, raising the Elder Wand and Resurrection Ring to level 10.
• Li Mu considered activating the Mind Wizard Inheritance HuoZhong and enhancing the Philosopher’s Stone, but rejected both options.
• Li Mu spent his remaining 180,000 cal of HuoZhong Source Power on spatial nanoworms to cripple the Precursors’ spatial technology.

Li Mu prepared to hunt the scattered Precursors, relying on spatial nanoworms to prevent them from escaping or summoning Kaiju. He ambushed an ambassador-class Precursor and killed him in under a second, beginning his plan to defeat the enemy one by one.

• Li Mu perfected his Polymorph Spell and created a powerful miniature Thunder Beast from a metal sphere.
• Li Mu inspected the rapidly growing Pterosaur King clones and estimated the Precursors’ remaining Kaiju forces.
• Li Mu concluded he needed mobility and spatial interference to isolate and defeat individual Precursors.
• Li Mu sensed an ambassador-class Precursor whose base was buried in magma and attacked it with an enlarged Pterosaur King and the Phoenix.
• Li Mu used spatial nanoworms to block the Precursor’s teleportation and Kaiju release, then killed him instantly with the Killing Curse.

Li Mu hunted the Precursors, then revived and brainwashed one to control its Kaiju and gather intelligence. When the Precursors prepared to attack Blue Star, he abandoned his original assault plan and devised a feint against their royal city to draw them away from the Forward Base.

• Li Mu killed sixty-nine ambassador-class Precursors, but the last one used its hive mind to order nearby Kaiju to flee and warn the others.
• The Precursors gathered at the royal city and Forward Bases, surrounding the Forward Base with Kaiju to prevent Li Mu from ambushing them.
• Li Mu revived a Precursor, controlled it with the Imperius Curse, and used memory alteration to make it and its Kaiju loyal to him.
• The Precursors decided to break through the spatial nanobot blockade and open a wormhole to Blue Star so they could force Li Mu to reveal himself.
• Li Mu planned to feint toward the royal city and draw away the Precursors heading to the Blue Star Forward Base, then destroy the base.
