Chapter Summaries

Chen Ming encountered the Phantom Sea God, who revealed that it had drawn him into the Illusion Sea Trident’s domain to speak. The dead god offered him a chance to inherit an Eternal Grade item, though Chen Ming mistakenly dismissed its value.

• The Phantom Sea God interrupted Chen Ming’s attempt to enter the Eternity-Level State and explained that he was inside the Illusion Sea Trident’s domain.
• Chen Ming learned that the Phantom Sea God was a dead Blue Star god preserving its consciousness and domain with Eternal Mental Power.
• The Phantom Sea God confirmed that Chen Ming possessed the Illusion Sea Domain and asked how far it extended.
• The Phantom Sea God offered Chen Ming a chance to inherit the Illusion Sea Trident, the core Eternal Grade item in its domain.
• Chen Ming sighed because he had expected equipment rather than an item, leaving the Phantom Sea God baffled by his reaction.

Before Chen Ming left, the Sea God urged him to participate in the Myriad Worlds Ancient Ruins, while the onlookers saw Chen Ming reappear in the temple projection.

Chen Ming escaped the false Sea God's trident attack and watched it transform into a Dark Sea God as black flames took over its body. He claimed Poseidon's Trident, which fused with the Illusion Sea Trident and became a real item, leaving him armed as the Dark Sea God faced him.

• Chen Ming reappeared unharmed and taunted the false Sea God, testing whether it knew its trident attack had failed.

• Chen Ming spread the Illusion Sea Domain and summoned a copy of Poseidon's Trident.
• Poseidon's Trident broke free of the Dark Sea God's grip, flew to Chen Ming, and fused with the Illusion Sea Trident, becoming a real item in his possession.

Chen Ming seized Poseidon's Trident, fused it with his strength equipment, and learned it could unleash a devastating locked-on attack. He began the decisive battle with the Dark Sea God and prepared to test the trident’s power on him.

• Chen Ming discovered Poseidon's Trident could fuse with strength equipment and merged it with the Shadow-Bearing Blade, gaining 60 Strength.

• Chen Ming took only 1 damage from their exchange while the trident recorded 201600 damage as his maximum strike.
• Chen Ming warned the Dark Sea God to withstand his next strike, and the Dark Sea God called him arrogant.

• The people in the sea region cheered Chen Ming’s victory and joked that they could boast about having met or followed a future god.
• Chen Ming put away the Illusion Sea Domain and Poseidon's Trident, then walked toward the seven statues formed from the Sea God Remnant.

Chen Ming brought the five remaining Sea God Remnants into the Bone Tower space to attempt to convert them into Bone Demons. As the Nether Resurrection Fire descended on the arranged statues, the conversion began, while the others waited outside the temple for Chen Ming to finish.

• Chen Ming arranged the five statues to resemble the Phantom Sea God and summoned the Flood Dragon Bone Demon to stand by.
• The Bone Tower flew toward Chen Ming and sent a mass of Nether Resurrection Fire down onto the five statues.

Chen Ming used the Fire of Revival and Bone Tower to revive the Sea God as a God Grade Bone Demon, purging the Eroding Black Flame.

After Chen Ming absorbed the Illusion Sea Temple into the Illusion Sea Domain and led everyone out of the dungeon, the expected batch of Class Changers still had not returned by nearly the seventh day.

• Chen Ming realized his Bone Tower could forcefully control a God-Grade Bone Demon for nearly ten minutes by spending Eternal Mental Power, though he expected Poseidon to cooperate without it.
• The Alliance and Elf Race members waited for Chen Ming while the Nether Sea Race and Black Dwarf Race teams quietly chose to leave early.
• Golden mist spread around the Illusion Sea Temple, and onlookers mistakenly thought Chen Ming was drawing it into his domain.
• Following the Phantom Sea God's instructions, Chen Ming merged the Illusion Sea Temple into the Illusion Sea Domain, then told everyone to exit the dungeon.
• On the night of the sixth day, the Holy See Alliance members had already left, but nearly the seventh day arrived without any other Class Changers exiting the dungeon.

As the seventh day began, the Black Dwarf and Nether Sea teams emerged, but the Alliance and Elf Race waited anxiously for their own people. Chen Ming then appeared with the final teams amid a vast Illusion Sea Domain and the temple, revealing that his side had cleared the dungeon.

• Xia Chuan and the other leaders waited for the trapped Class Changers as dawn marked the start of the seventh day.
• A complete Black Dwarf team and three complete Nether Sea teams returned by boat, though their members looked dejected.

• Chen Ming emerged at the head of the Alliance's and Elf Race's final eight teams, surrounded by the domain and temple's glow.
• Chen Ming received a notification that he had cleared the Illusion Sea Temple and reached Level 29.

After clearing the Illusion Sea Temple, Chen Ming reached Level 29 and gained Legendary equipment, twenty golden scales, and an Illusion Sea Domain spanning over a thousand meters. He returned to the island, where the Alliance’s leaders and other teams welcomed the dungeon survivors and Xia Chuan pressed him to reveal the domain’s exact range.

• Chen Ming received the temple-clear rewards, including enough advancement materials to support him through Level 40, and judged that he could defeat a Saint Grade opponent with a full burst.
• Chen Ming reflected that his attacks could not match a true God Grade being and that he still relied on Afterimage and spatial abilities in ordinary battles.
• Liu Xingsi and Xia Chuan saw Chen Ming’s enormous Illusion Sea Domain as the eight teams returned to the island.
• The returning teams described the fifth and sixth days of the dungeon to those who had left early, while withholding Chen Ming’s domain range.
• Pei Jiuge praised Gu Feng for obtaining four golden scales and a hundred-meter domain.
• Chen Ming withdrew his domain and landed on the island, where Xia Chuan asked how far it reached.

Chen Ming fully released his Illusion Sea Domain, revealing the Illusion Sea Temple and astonishing everyone on the island. He sensed that the domain covered two-thirds of Blue Star, leaving him unsettled by its vast reach.

• Chen Ming told Xia Chuan, Pei Jiuge, Liu Xingsi, and the gathered higher-ups that the entire Illusion Sea Domain was inside his Phantom Sea Golden Scale Armor.
• Chen Ming rose above the island and unleashed the domain at full power, spreading an immense sea across the sky.

• Chen Ming sensed goodwill from the sea beasts and loathing and savagery from the Exotic Beast Forest through World Vision.
• The Illusion Sea Domain contracted back into Chen Ming's Golden Scale Armor, leaving the others astonished by its power.

• Liu Xingsi met Chen Ming at the Alliance headquarters and said they would have to rely on him for the secret realm.

The Alliance prepared Chen Ming and its SSS-Rank Class-Changers for a secret realm, but Liu Xingsi revealed that their opponents would come from many other worlds. The group learned the realm was called the Starry Secret Realm: Ancient Ruins of Myriad Worlds, and Chen Ming recognized the name from the Phantom Sea God.

• Chen Ming agreed to lead the Alliance's team and compete for the secret realm's resources, including possible Mythical Grade equipment.
• Gu Feng and the other SSS-Rank Class-Changers reacted to Liu Xingsi's expectation that Chen Ming would bear the main burden, and Gu Feng resolved to prove himself.

The Alliance learned that only SSS-Rank teams and the Elite Department’s Silent Night Squad could enter the Myriad Worlds Ancient Ruins, leaving the other teams to watch from outside. Chen Ming and the other eligible teams faced a vast field of SSS-Rank competitors, while Blue Star’s apparent low ranking and the lack of information left them with no guidance for the challenge ahead.

• Chen Ming learned that the Phantom Sea God’s insistence on joining the Myriad Worlds Ancient Ruins meant entering a mystic realm, and he became excited about its unprecedented scale.
• Xia Chuan announced that only the five SSS-ranked teams and the Elite Department’s Silent Night Squad could participate, shocking the other teams.
• The higher-ups explained that a team needed at least one SSS-Rank Class-Changer to enter the ruins, so the excluded teams had to withdraw.
• Gu Feng and the others realized they would face tens of thousands of powerful SSS-Rank Class-Changers from other worlds and worried about the competition.
• Elder Liu said Blue Star appeared to rank near the bottom among the myriad worlds and admitted that the Alliance had little information to prepare Chen Ming and the other entrants.

The Alliance prepared Chen Ming and the other chosen Class Changers to enter the dangerous secret realm, which might raise Blue Star’s world level and allow its strongest experts to become God Grade. At Alliance Headquarters, no one withdrew, and Chu He distributed Magnetic Jade Fragments before explaining the next matter.

• Elder Liu warned Chen Ming to conceal his identity in the secret realm, and Chen Ming promised to stay low-key.

• Chen Ming stepped onto the path, followed by the four Morning Light Squad members, and they disappeared as the path faded.

Chen Ming and the Morning Light Squad crossed the void into the Myriad Worlds Ancient Ruins, arriving on a desolate, miasma-covered world. The chapter left them with only sparse information about the secret realm, including their Human Race Merit Points and an exit requirement.
