Chapter Summaries

Chapter Summary: “An Encounter of Fate”

1. Key Plot Points and Events

• Bai Muye convenes a full meeting of the Human Clan’s highest-ranking Universe Masters, becoming the seventh person authorized to call a Giant Axe meeting.
• He reveals that the detailed Universe Ocean map he obtained came from the God Eye Race. He acquired it by soul-controlling Master Tie Hu, a fourth-tier Universe Master from that race.
• Tie Hu had already reported Bai Muye’s information to the God Eye Race before being controlled. As a result, the God Eye Race has identified Bai Muye as a newly risen Human Clan powerhouse and may retaliate against him—or target the Human Clan’s other experts.
• The Human Clan’s leaders acknowledge the danger but refuse to show fear. Chaos City Lord and Lord Peng Gong point out that only the God Eye Race’s seven True Gods pose a serious threat, while its other Universe Masters are weakened.
• Giant Axe publicly supports Bai Muye’s actions, emphasizing that the Human Clan must compete for opportunities rather than avoid all danger.
• Bai Muye continues his journey through Universe Boat, using Master Jin Fang’s top-tier palace Supreme Treasure, Starlight Hall, for protection and speed.
• He passes through Thunderclap Firmament and enters the extremely dangerous God-Destroying Ravine, navigating magma, falling boulders, and powerful magma whirlpools.
• After more than a year in the ravine, Bai Muye learns that a True God of the God Eye Race—the Fourth True Master—is approaching him.
• The Fourth True Master initially uses Words Become Law to travel at tremendous speed, but once he comes within a hundred million kilometers of Bai Muye, the Primitive Universe’s Origin Will suppresses the ability because it recognizes his hostile intent.
• The Fourth True Master finally confronts Bai Muye and demands to know whether Bai Muye killed Master Tie Hu.

2. Character Developments

• Bai Muye demonstrates growing authority and confidence by convening the Human Clan’s leaders and openly warning them of the God Eye Race’s potential retaliation.
• He also shows strategic boldness by refusing to flee immediately from the approaching True God. Although he keeps Xiao Si’s teleportation ability as an escape option, he chooses to assess the Fourth True Master’s strength first.
• Giant Axe, Chaos City Lord, and Lord Peng Gong reinforce their roles as powerful and steady leaders. Rather than blaming Bai Muye, they defend his actions and maintain morale.
• Master Jin Fang becomes increasingly loyal and cooperative, contributing his palace Supreme Treasure and remaining in Bai Muye’s World Ring. He also recognizes the Fourth True Master and urgently warns Bai Muye.
• The Fourth True Master is introduced as aggressive, arrogant, and intent on investigating Tie Hu’s death, setting up a direct confrontation with Bai Muye.

3. Significant Themes

• Responsibility and leadership: Bai Muye’s growing status requires him to warn and protect the Human Clan, not merely pursue his own cultivation.
• Courage versus recklessness: The Human Clan accepts that pursuing opportunities inevitably involves danger, while Bai Muye’s decision to face a True God tests the boundary between confidence and arrogance.
• Unity in the face of external threats: The Human Clan’s leaders do not turn against Bai Muye after learning that his actions may provoke the God Eye Race. Their collective support strengthens the clan’s position.
• Power and political consequences: Soul-controlling Tie Hu gives Bai Muye valuable information but also exposes him to retaliation from a far older and stronger race.
• Rules and limitations of the universe: The Primitive Universe’s Origin Will restricts even a True God’s abilities when his intentions become openly hostile, showing that cosmic laws can influence battles between supreme beings.

Chapter Summary: Square-Circle Heavenly Palace

Key Plot Points and Events

• Bai Muye discovers a massive, perfectly round black sphere floating deep within the underground region of God-Destroying Ravine.
• Although the sphere initially appears impossible to bind, an entrance opens after Xiao Si identifies the mechanism.
• Inside, the spherical treasure contains more than a thousand interconnected cubic spaces, most designed for sealing and suppression, with others intended for cultivation.
• Bai Muye reaches the central chamber, which contains a floating black pearl—the core of the palace—as well as a large stone covered in Secret Pattern Diagrams and an inscribed stone wall.
• The inscription reveals that the treasure is the Square-Circle Heavenly Palace, left behind by a cultivator named Bian Liusu, who followed “the general” on a fatal journey. Bian Liusu claimed to have created an extremely powerful secret technique before dying and left both the technique and palace for a destined successor.
• Bai Muye successfully binds the black pearl. The treasure requires exceptionally high willpower, confirming that it is at least an Ultimate Supreme Treasure and possibly a Void True God-level palace treasure.
• He discovers that the palace can maintain ten-thousandfold time acceleration in certain cultivation spaces and remains undamaged because Bian Liusu apparently never used it in battle.
• Bai Muye studies the Secret Pattern Diagram for a month. His consciousness enters a vast inner vision resembling a universe filled with differently shaped celestial bodies moving through chaotic currents.
• Xiao Si wakes him after a month. Bai Muye identifies the diagram as the One Thought Universe Formation, an Eternal True God-level secret technique.
• Concluding that the palace is safe enough for extended study, Bai Muye decides to relocate it. He shrinks the palace and uses it to break through the underground passage, traveling eight light-years back toward the surface.

Character Developments

• Bai Muye demonstrates increasing confidence and competence. His peak True God will allows him to bind a treasure far beyond what his Venerable cultivation would normally permit.
• He becomes more cautious and methodical, inspecting the palace and its inscriptions before touching the Secret Pattern Diagram.
• His comprehension of the One Thought Universe Formation confirms his talent and provides him with a powerful new avenue for cultivation.
• Bai Muye also begins treating the Square-Circle Heavenly Palace as a long-term strategic asset rather than merely a discovered treasure.
• Xiao Si continues acting as Bai Muye’s practical support and safeguard. He identifies the palace’s entrance, monitors Bai Muye’s prolonged meditation, and explains that he can teleport the entire palace if necessary.

Significant Themes

• Inheritance and destiny: Bian Liusu deliberately leaves behind his palace and secret technique for a future fated individual, making Bai Muye the recipient of an ancient legacy.
• Power beyond appearances: The unremarkable black sphere conceals a vast palace with numerous functions and an extremely high binding threshold.
• Knowledge as power: The palace’s greatest value is not its offensive ability but its cultivation facilities and the Eternal True God-level secret technique.
• Caution amid opportunity: Bai Muye balances excitement over the discovery with careful investigation, reflecting the dangers of exploring ancient treasures in a perilous environment.
• Transformation and cosmic order: The vision within the Secret Pattern Diagram presents a universe of differently shaped bodies moving in harmonious patterns, suggesting a profound formation based on balance, structure, and interconnected laws.

Character Interactions

• Bai Muye repeatedly consults Xiao Si while investigating the palace, relying on Xiao Si’s analysis and spatial abilities.
• Xiao Si’s warning and eventual wake-up prevent Bai Muye from becoming indefinitely lost in the Secret Pattern Diagram’s artistic conception.
• Their exchange after Bai Muye awakens shows mutual trust: Bai Muye recognizes the palace’s potential, while Xiao Si reassures him that he can evacuate the treasure even if danger appears.

Arrival at Godspeed — Chapter Summary

Key Plot Points and Events

• Bai Muye escapes the underground area of God-Destroying Ravine in the Square-Circle Heavenly Palace, using Xiao Si’s ability to travel through the void at extreme speed.
• The palace allows him to cross the vast ravine and much of the Universe Boat’s dangerous interior in less than a month, avoiding most natural hazards.
• He arrives at the Black Pattern Stone Pillar Space, a comparatively safe region supported by sixteen enormous ancient stone pillars. The area offers accelerated time flow, teleportation, and the chance to study profound natural secret patterns.
• Bai Muye deliberately disguises his appearance and avoids the resident powerful beings, including Be Chi Star Lord, Blood Orchid Progenitor, and the unpredictable Rampant Demon God. He also avoids contacting Hong Alliance members to keep the capabilities of the Square-Circle Heavenly Palace hidden.
• He chooses Stone Pillar No. 13 and releases Master Jin Fang, ordering him to hide at a safe distance because the pillar’s will pressure would eventually overwhelm him.
• Bai Muye advances toward the pillar, enduring increasingly powerful attacks on his will. He reaches a region where time flows more than thirty thousand times faster, near his personal limit.
• He alternates between:
  • Remaining in the extreme region to temper his will.
  • Retreating to the ten-thousandfold time-flow region to recover and study the stone pillar’s secret patterns.
• Over a thousand years of outside time—equivalent to tens of millions of years under accelerated time—his will improves from the thirty-thousandfold region to approximately the forty-thousandfold region.
• Exhausted, he retreats to the Square-Circle Heavenly Palace and relaxes both his main body and avatar. As his will recovers, his avatar unexpectedly begins generating and evolving new secret patterns, suggesting a major breakthrough or insight.

Character Development

• Bai Muye demonstrates greater caution and strategic discipline. Although he possesses a powerful travel treasure, he recognizes that revealing it would destroy its value as a hidden trump card.
• His confidence grows as he tests the limits of his peak True God-level will against the Black Pattern Stone Pillar’s pressure.
• He becomes more determined to improve himself through sustained hardship rather than relying solely on external treasures.
• His study of secret patterns deepens. The combination of the Square-Circle Heavenly Palace’s knowledge and the Black Pattern Stone Pillar’s natural patterns significantly accelerates his progress.
• Master Jin Fang remains obedient and respectful, following Bai Muye’s orders and hiding rather than risking exposure to the pillar’s overwhelming will assault.
• Xiao Si functions as an invaluable support, controlling the palace and enabling Bai Muye’s extraordinarily rapid journey.

Character Interactions

• Bai Muye directly instructs Master Jin Fang to remain hidden and wait for him, prioritizing Jin Fang’s survival over further exploration.
• His relationship with Xiao Si is cooperative and efficient: Xiao Si handles the palace’s movement while Bai Muye focuses on navigation and cultivation.
• Bai Muye deliberately avoids interaction with the other powerful beings in the region, especially the three Universe Supreme Beings, to conceal his identity and abilities.

Significant Themes

• Hidden strength and strategic restraint: Bai Muye treats the Square-Circle Heavenly Palace as a secret weapon and avoids unnecessary attention.
• Self-improvement through suffering: The will assault becomes a controlled method of tempering, emphasizing that true advancement requires endurance and mental strength.
• The limits of power: Even with peak True God-level will, Bai Muye is affected by the stone pillar’s pressure and must balance progress with recovery.
• Time as a cultivation advantage: Accelerated time transforms a thousand external years into tens of millions of years of experience and study.
• Discovery through exhaustion and stillness: Bai Muye’s unexpected emergence of new secret patterns while resting suggests that breakthroughs can occur after prolonged effort, when the mind finally relaxes.
• Foreshadowing of a breakthrough: The secret patterns forming in the avatar’s eyes at the chapter’s end indicate that Bai Muye may be on the verge of a significant advancement in his understanding of secret patterns or cultivation.

Chapter Summary: Universe in the Palm

Key Plot Points and Events

• Bai Muye completes a powerful new ultimate fusion secret technique after countless years of study. Its Secret Pattern Diagram radiates an oppressive aura stronger than the Primitive Universe’s Innate Secret Technique and slightly surpasses his soul technique, Fanxin.
• The technique is a fifth-tier ultimate fusion secret technique, extremely close to sixth-tier power. With the aid of a Strange Object, Bai Muye believes it could reach the sixth tier.
• He names the technique Universe in the Palm, a technique that condenses chaotic, universe-like destructive power into a sphere.
• After leaving the Square-Circle Heavenly Palace, Bai Muye resumes training in the Black Pattern Stone Pillar Space, where he had previously been struggling against the pillars’ immense willpower assaults.
• He discovers that the Hunyuan Body Refining Technique does more than strengthen his physical body. The power hidden within his three thousand acupoints also strengthens his comprehension, consciousness, and will, gradually merging into his intangible willpower.
• This discovery greatly accelerates his progress. What might have required hundreds of thousands of years could now take less than a tenth of that time.
• After more than twenty thousand years of continued cultivation, Bai Muye’s will finally undergoes a qualitative breakthrough, reaching the Void True God level. His will becomes powerful enough to briefly push back the Black Pattern Stone Pillar’s assault.
• Other powerful figures sense the sudden eruption of his will. Be Chi Star Lord notices the disturbance from afar, while a mysterious white-robed expert becomes suspicious that Bai Muye may have discovered a hidden treasure and begins moving toward Stone Pillar No. 13.
• Bai Muye continues advancing until the time-flow region exceeds eighty thousand times normal speed, where the pressure again becomes overwhelming. He recognizes that he still cannot match Be Chi Star Lord’s willpower and temporarily retreats to the fifty-thousandfold region.
• From there, he begins studying the immense Secret Pattern Diagram depicting the operation of the Primal Star, realizing that its oppressive force can only be endured by someone with Void True God-level will.
• He alternates between comprehension and recovery, gradually beginning to explore the profound secrets contained in the diagram.

Character Development

• Bai Muye makes two major breakthroughs:
  • He creates Universe in the Palm, greatly increasing his combat power.
  • His will advances to the Void True God level after prolonged tempering.
• His understanding of the Hunyuan Body Refining Technique deepens. He learns that its hidden energy can reinforce even nonmaterial aspects of existence, making his will tougher and more stable.
• Bai Muye grows increasingly confident. Although he remains behind Be Chi Star Lord, he believes he can eventually surpass him.
• His ambitions also expand from merely enduring the Black Pattern Stone Pillars to understanding and mastering their deeper mysteries, particularly the Primal Star Secret Pattern Diagram.

Significant Themes

• Persistent cultivation and gradual advancement: Bai Muye’s progress comes from countless years of disciplined effort rather than a sudden shortcut.
• The unity of body, soul, and will: The Hunyuan Body Refining Technique demonstrates that physical cultivation can strengthen consciousness and willpower as well as the body.
• Breaking through limits: Bai Muye repeatedly reaches apparent boundaries, only to discover new methods that allow him to advance further.
• Power and hidden potential: Universe in the Palm and the Void True God breakthrough reveal that Bai Muye’s abilities are approaching the highest levels of existence.
• Mystery and danger: The Black Pattern Stone Pillars are officially believed to contain no treasures, but Bai Muye’s breakthrough attracts the attention of outsiders who suspect he has uncovered something valuable.

Character Interactions

• Bai Muye has no direct conversation with other characters in the chapter, but his breakthrough indirectly affects them.
• Be Chi Star Lord senses Bai Muye’s surge of will from near Stone Pillar No. 2 and briefly investigates, though he finds nothing unusual.
• A mysterious white-robed expert also detects the fluctuation and assumes Bai Muye may have found a hidden Supreme Treasure. He quietly approaches Stone Pillar No. 13, setting up a potential future confrontation.
• Bai Muye’s relationship with Be Chi Star Lord remains primarily competitive: he acknowledges Be Chi’s current superiority but believes the gap can eventually be overcome.

Chapter Summary: “Lord Pure Eye”

Key Plot Points and Events

• Bai Muye successfully advances the Fanxin soul secret technique to the initial sixth tier, reaching a level comparable to a True God. His progress is aided by the Black Pattern Stone Pillar’s accelerated time flow and his will, which already surpasses the True God level.
• He exits the inner region of Pillar No. 13 and reunites with Master Jin Fang, whom he has soul-controlled.
• Lord Pure Eye, a powerful member of the God Eye Race and disciple of First True Master, arrives while searching for Jin Fang. He immediately realizes that Jin Fang is under Bai Muye’s control.
• Lord Pure Eye accuses Bai Muye of soul-controlling Jin Fang and asks whether Bai Muye also killed Tie Hu of the God Eye Race.
• Bai Muye sends Jin Fang into the Square-Circle Heavenly Palace, then confronts Lord Pure Eye alone.
• Lord Pure Eye launches a fifth-tier soul attack and attacks with a white, two-headed beast formed from a Supreme Treasure. Bai Muye effortlessly neutralizes both attacks: his soul remains unharmed, and he destroys the beast with a single slap.
• Realizing Bai Muye is far stronger than expected, Lord Pure Eye uses his strongest technique, Pure Destruction Reincarnation, along with a peak domain Supreme Treasure.
• Bai Muye counters with a soul arrow. It shatters Lord Pure Eye’s top-tier soul-type Supreme Treasure and overwhelms Lord Pure Eye himself.
• Before dying, Lord Pure Eye sends a final message to First True Master, warning him that Bai Muye has soul-controlled Jin Fang and possesses terrifying soul techniques. His Divine Power incarnation then dissipates.

Character Developments

• Bai Muye demonstrates a major breakthrough in strength. His sixth-tier soul secret technique places him at a level capable of overwhelming ordinary Universe Masters and even threatening powerful Universe Supreme Beings.
• He remains calm and confident throughout the confrontation, treating Lord Pure Eye’s attacks as insignificant and even expressing mild disappointment when the enemy’s soul treasure proves weaker than expected.
• Master Jin Fang is shown to be completely loyal—or at least completely obedient—to Bai Muye due to soul control. He respectfully identifies Lord Pure Eye and explains his importance.
• Lord Pure Eye shifts from confidence to shock and terror. Initially convinced that Bai Muye’s will could not match his own, he quickly realizes that Bai Muye’s soul attainments vastly exceed his expectations.
• Lord Pure Eye’s final warning confirms that Bai Muye has become a major threat to the God Eye Race.

Significant Themes

• The overwhelming power of soul techniques: Bai Muye’s sixth-tier technique renders ordinary defenses and even a True God-level will ineffective.
• Underestimation and reversal: Lord Pure Eye assumes Bai Muye is inexperienced and weaker because he is a newly prominent figure from the Primitive Universe, but the battle immediately overturns that assumption.
• The danger of hidden strength: Bai Muye’s true capabilities are far beyond what the God Eye Race has learned through its investigations.
• Conflict between races and factions: The encounter intensifies the hostility between Bai Muye and the God Eye Race, especially because Jin Fang has been controlled and Tie Hu may have been killed.
• Power beyond treasures: Although Lord Pure Eye possesses a powerful soul-type Supreme Treasure and domain treasure, Bai Muye’s personal soul cultivation is strong enough to destroy and overcome them.

Character Interactions

• Bai Muye and Master Jin Fang: Jin Fang addresses Bai Muye as “Master,” revealing his subjugation. Bai Muye protects and stores him before engaging the enemy.
• Bai Muye and Lord Pure Eye: Their exchange begins with accusation and suspicion, then turns into a one-sided battle. Lord Pure Eye seeks revenge and hopes to seize Bai Muye’s soul treasure, but Bai Muye defeats him effortlessly.
• Lord Pure Eye and First True Master: Before his death, Lord Pure Eye transmits a warning to his master about Bai Muye’s strength, soul control over Jin Fang, and destruction of the mirror Supreme Treasure.

Chapter Summary: “Lava Demon God”

Key Plot Points and Events

• Bai Muye publicly reveals his victory over Lord Pure Eye of the God Eye Race. After defeating Pure Eye’s ultimate attack and suppressing his True God-level will, Bai Muye controls his soul rather than annihilating him.
• He places Lord Pure Eye inside the Square-Circle Heavenly Palace and warns the surrounding Universe Masters to tell the God Eye Race that he will personally retaliate against anyone who targets humanity. He admits he cannot yet kill a True God, but confidently states that he eventually will.
• News of Bai Muye’s feat spreads to Purple Moon Cliff. The Universe Masters there are shocked to learn that Bai Muye’s will has surpassed the True God level, though it may still be below Be Chi Star Lord’s.
• The Purple Moon Progenitor orders his subordinates to monitor Bai Muye constantly and locate him as soon as possible.
• While traveling through God-Destroying Ravine, Bai Muye and his companions encounter one of the region’s Nine-Headed Lava Demon Gods.
• The Lava Demon God emerges from the magma sea and attacks three fleeing Universe Masters. It instantly annihilates one with a palm strike, kills another by throwing a massive boulder, and gravely injures the third before Bai Muye can intervene.
• Bai Muye recognizes that the Lava Demon God is vastly stronger than even a Universe Supreme Being and orders the Square-Circle Heavenly Palace to retreat.
• Before escaping, a transparent root briefly approaches the Lava Demon God and appears to tamper with or investigate something. The Heavenly Palace then teleports away before the demon can reach it.

Character Developments

• Bai Muye: His power and confidence are dramatically reinforced. His will has surpassed the True God level, allowing him to control Lord Pure Eye’s soul. He also demonstrates growing defiance toward the God Eye Race and a willingness to protect humanity personally.
• Lord Pure Eye: Once a formidable God Eye Race expert specializing in soul attacks, he is completely defeated and reduced to a controlled captive under Bai Muye’s authority.
• Purple Moon Progenitor: Becomes alarmed by Bai Muye’s rapidly increasing threat and orders immediate surveillance and tracking efforts.
• Lava Demon God: Established as an overwhelmingly powerful, near-unstoppable entity whose physical strength and speed ignore ordinary laws and limits. It can effortlessly kill Universe Masters and threaten even the strongest beings in the Universe Ocean.

Significant Themes

• Escalating power and transcendence: Bai Muye’s victory shows that he has moved beyond the conventional True God realm, while the Lava Demon God represents an even more extreme level of brute force.
• Defiance and protection: Bai Muye’s threat to the God Eye Race emphasizes his commitment to defending the human powerhouses of the Primitive Universe.
• Fear and shifting alliances: The surrounding experts react with shock and caution, while Purple Moon’s forces begin treating Bai Muye as a major strategic threat.

• Bai Muye addresses the observing Universe Masters and openly challenges the God Eye Race, creating a tense warning exchange with a blood-red-armored powerhouse.
• The Purple Moon Universe Masters debate whether Bai Muye’s victory was caused by soul annihilation, only to learn that he achieved the far more shocking result of soul control.
• Bai Muye and his companions observe the Lava Demon God’s slaughter from a distance. Rather than engage it, Bai Muye immediately recognizes the danger and orders their escape.

• Bai Muye takes Lord Pure Eye’s peak domain supreme treasure, the Azure Origin Lock, replacing it with the Myriad Calamity Thunder Prison for his clone.

• Chaos City Lord acknowledges that Bai Muye has surpassed every other Universe Master in both the Primitive Universe and the Universe Ocean. Bai Muye’s rapid growth may eventually allow him to rival the former strength of Yuanzu and help free him.
• Bai Muye warns Chaos City Lord about possible retaliation from the God Eye Race. Chaos City Lord agrees to alert the Hong Alliance but believes the vastness and dangers of the Universe Ocean will make an immediate confrontation unlikely.

Character Developments

• Bai Muye continues to rise dramatically in power. His ability to soul-control Lord Pure Eye, a peak expert with fifth-tier soul attacks, establishes that he has become the strongest known Universe Master.

Significant Themes

• Rapid advancement and power imbalance: Bai Muye’s growth has made him “outclass” even the strongest established experts, changing the balance of power across the Universe Ocean.

• Loyalty and control: The soul-controlled God Eye Race experts illustrate the tension between forced obedience and their practical value as loyal servants of the Human Clan.
• Threat and deterrence: Bai Muye’s public display of strength forces the God Eye Race to reconsider direct retaliation, while the Human Clan must still protect its members from revenge.

Chapter Summary: “Never Go There”

Key Plot Points and Events

• Chaos City Lord explains that Giant Axe’s true strength has long been concealed because the Human Clan lacked power and an Ultimate Supreme Treasure. Even without one, Giant Axe was comparable to the strongest True Gods; with one, he could challenge the God Eye Race’s First True Master.
• Giant Axe obtains the Ultimate Supreme Treasure Divine Axe in Qingfeng World, perfectly suited to him. His strength rises from roughly the eighth stage to the ninth stage of True God power.
• The Human Clan’s Universe Masters gather at Giant Axe’s temple to celebrate. Giant Axe credits Bai Muye’s map for helping him explore Qingfeng World and discover the weapon.
• Bai Muye warns Giant Axe never to approach the Land of Darkness, a dangerous region near Qingfeng World’s core that will become overwhelmingly perilous during the current reincarnation era. Even Universe Supreme Beings with Ultimate Supreme Treasures will not be able to withstand it.
• Bai Muye also warns everyone to flee immediately if they encounter Lord Haolei Star, King Zhenjia, or Ancestral God Qiuyan, powerful beings from the First Reincarnation Era who have become servants of the World Beasts.
• Giant Axe accepts the warning and urges the Human Clan to take Bai Muye’s information seriously, regardless of its unknown source.
• In a private exchange, Bai Muye hints that the Land of Darkness’s danger will become clearer in several hundred epochs, emphasizing that Giant Axe must survive first. This sobers Giant Axe and tempers his confidence after acquiring the Divine Axe.
• The celebration is interrupted by news that Luo Feng has severely injured Monster Race expert Venerable Tianhua with a single slash, destroying at least ten percent of his divine power despite his powerful armor and body.
• The Human Clan also learns that the Star Tower has disappeared and that the Monster, Bug, and Machine Races hired Demon God Xuzhen to assassinate Luo Feng. Suspecting Luo Feng may now be surrounded on Primal Star, Chaos City Lord immediately decides to investigate.

Character Developments

• Giant Axe begins the chapter exhilarated and proud after obtaining the Divine Axe, but Bai Muye’s warnings force him to recognize that even his newly enhanced strength is insufficient against every danger in the Universe Ocean. His attitude becomes cautious and respectful.
• Bai Muye demonstrates his access to critical prophetic or hidden information. He remains modest about helping Giant Axe find the Divine Axe but takes responsibility for warning the Human Clan about future threats.
• Chaos City Lord shows strong loyalty to Giant Axe and the Human Clan, celebrating the weapon’s acquisition and promptly preparing to protect Luo Feng.
• Luo Feng is revealed to have reached an extraordinary level of combat power, capable of severely damaging a powerful Universe Master-level opponent with one attack.

Significant Themes

• Power and humility: Even an Ultimate Supreme Treasure and ninth-stage strength do not guarantee safety in the Universe Ocean.

• Collective responsibility: The Human Clan’s leaders share intelligence and act together to protect their people.
• Hidden threats: The Land of Darkness and World Beast servants represent dangers beyond ordinary conflicts between races.
• Changing balance of power: Giant Axe’s Divine Axe and Luo Feng’s recent breakthrough signal a major rise in Human Clan strength, while the hostile races intensify their efforts to eliminate Luo Feng.

• Bai Muye openly mocks the three races for first sending thousands of venerables and multiple Universe Masters against Luo Feng, then escalating to a Universe Supreme Being.
• Dream Demon Ancestor, despite her anger, is wary of Bai Muye because he previously survived encounters with the Machine Race Father God and Zerg Empress and has even soul-controlled Lord Pure Eye, whose will is at the supreme-being level.
• The chapter ends with Dream Demon Ancestor directly challenging Bai Muye: after Luo Feng’s massacre of thousands of venerables, can Bai Muye truly protect him?

Character Developments

• Luo Feng: Reveals that he can now unleash a Universe Master’s strongest secret technique and use it to destroy thousands of high-level enemies simultaneously. His refusal to sacrifice even an unarmed avatar shows his confidence, determination, and unwillingness to submit to political pressure.
• Bai Muye: Acts as Luo Feng’s protector and deliberately allows him to complete his battle rather than interfering prematurely. His confidence reflects his immense growth and his belief that he can confront even supreme beings.
• Chaos City Lord: Initially worries about Luo Feng’s safety, but becomes stunned by Luo Feng’s strength. He relies on Bai Muye as a safeguard while attempting to manage the political consequences.
• Dream Demon Ancestor: Appears furious and aggressive, but her caution toward Bai Muye reveals that she recognizes him as a serious threat. Her concern over his ability to control Lord Pure Eye further increases her apprehension.
