Chapter Summaries

After the battle with Thanos, the group discussed the danger beyond dimensions and Ancient One’s approaching death. Bai Xuan suggested there might now be a chance to save her, though doing so would require a tremendous price.

• Marquis Voban praised Su Yunqing’s words about never remaining beneath another, and Shendu mocked him for having powerful people above him.
• With Thanos dead, the visitors departed and the remaining heroes turned to battlefield cleanup and the threats still facing Earth.
• Bai Xuan asked Tony Stark whether his inheritance recorded what existed beyond dimensions, and Tony said it did not.
• Bai Xuan explained that Evil Gods, Hell, and Demons threatened worlds beyond Earth’s protective barrier and knew Ancient One was going to die.
• Su Yunqing speculated that Ancient One might be an incarnation of Eternity’s humanity and said they could not prevent her death.
• Bai Xuan said there was now a sliver of possibility to save Ancient One, but it would require a tremendous price and depended on which Eternity they faced.

Bai Xuan explained that the [Child of the Azure Sky] Status could use the Infinity Stones and other important items to analyze an entire world, potentially letting him challenge Eternity’s plans in Tony’s Marvel world. The group joked about what a complete analysis would make Tony to Bai Xuan, while Tony warned that Bai Xuan’s influence could reach beyond his world through the [Child of the Heavens] Status.

• Su Yunqing questioned how the [Child of the Azure Sky] Status could let Bai Xuan interfere with Eternity and save Ancient One.
• Bai Xuan said he could use the Infinity Stones and other world-important items to analyze Tony’s Marvel world.
• Su Yunqing realized that the analysis could amount to taking over the world, and Tony agreed the Status was alarmingly powerful.
• Umaru and Su Yunqing teased Tony that a fully analyzed world would make him Bai Xuan’s descendant, prompting Tony to complain.
• Tony reminded the group that Bai Xuan’s influence might extend beyond his world because he also possessed the [Child of the Heavens] Status.

The group discussed how the Power Stone and Infinity Gauntlet helped Bai Xuan’s [Child of the Azure Sky] analyze the Marvel world, estimating how much more the Infinity Stones and Odin’s Vault could contribute. The discussion revealed that Loki had sold nearly everything valuable from the vault, leaving little of Odin’s original collection.

• Tony Stark warned that Bai Xuan’s Status could eventually make the group his juniors, prompting Su Yunqing to quickly change the subject.
• Bai Xuan reported that the Power Stone and Infinity Gauntlet had analyzed 10% of the world, and Tony explained that the Infinity Stones’ special nature made that unusually significant.
• Erina Nakiri and the others estimated that six Infinity Stones and the gauntlet could contribute around 50% Analysis, with Odin’s Vault potentially raising the total further.
• Loki claimed that Odin’s Vault could add much more, but Godslayer revealed that Loki had sold everything valuable from it.
• Loki accepted the accusation, comparing selling Odin’s belongings favorably with more extreme betrayals and recalling that she usually made amends for her pranks.

The Chat Group debated whether to spend the Infinity Stones to protect Ancient One from Eternity, and Tony Stark argued that saving her was worth the cost. The group concluded that enough Stones and Kamar-Taj magic could provide the Analysis they needed, even if the Soul Stone proved difficult to obtain.

• Marquis Voban questioned whether sacrificing six valuable Infinity Stones to save Ancient One was worthwhile.
• Tony Stark said he would help Ancient One because she had protected his world and he could not refuse if he was able to save her.
• Tony explained that he could not Recycle the Infinity Stones and had little need for most of them, while Su Yunqing realized this removed a reason to hesitate.
• Su Yunqing calculated that five Infinity Stones, the Infinity Gauntlet, and Kamar-Taj magic might raise their Analysis to 50%.
• Umaru Doma pointed out that acquiring the Soul Stone required sacrificing a loved one, which Bai Xuan and Tony would not do.
• Tony suggested including the Time Stone if necessary, saying its future visions had become limited since he joined the Chat Group.

Tony Stark offered the Time Stone to save Ancient One, while the group reconsidered whether their plans could work against Eternity. Bai Xuan explained that even complete analysis of Tony's world would not let them stop Eternity without risking the world, and Ace proposed bringing Ancient One to another world.

• Tony Stark said he would trade the Time Stone to save Ancient One, and Su Yunqing wondered at his willingness to sacrifice it despite their limited closeness.
• Bai Xuan warned that their calculations depended on Eternity being born from Tony Stark's world rather than all Marvel Worlds.
• Bai Xuan said that with a 100% analysis rate, he could wield the world's power and prevent Eternity from taking lives there unless He destroyed the world and bore the consequences.
• Su Yunqing asked what they could do if Eternity insisted, and Bai Xuan replied that confronting Him or destroying the world would not help, so they should give Him Ancient One's soul if necessary.
• Ace asked why they could not transport Ancient One to their world.

Ace suggested sending Ancient One to another world to keep her safe from Eternity, and Su Yunqing agreed it could work but worried Ancient One would be unable to return to the Marvel World while Eternity remained alive. Tony argued that Ancient One could retire and enjoy traveling elsewhere, since Earth had successors and the Chat Group could help if danger arose.

• Ace proposed using a Travel Talisman to send Ancient One to another group member's world, where Eternity could not reach her.
• Su Yunqing said the plan could protect Ancient One but would leave her unable to return to the Marvel World while Eternity lived.

• Tony said he and the Chat Group could protect Earth, and Ancient One could return once someone reached Eternity's level.

Bai Xuan went to Vormir to investigate how to obtain the Soul Stone without paying its price. Red Skull told him that the Soul Stone required the sacrifice of a beloved’s soul, leaving Bai Xuan’s plan unresolved.

• Su Yunqing raised the possibility that Eternity might search for the missing Ancient One and discover Tony Stark.
• Bai Xuan revealed that he had gone to Vormir, where the Soul Stone was obtained.
• Bai Xuan sensed the Soul Stone’s vast sea of souls and teleported to the mountain’s summit.
• Red Skull asked what price Bai Xuan would pay and explained that the Soul Stone required the sacrifice of a beloved’s soul.

Bai Xuan sealed Vormir and its dimensional rifts, then used his powers to analyze the planet and locate the Soul Stone. He reached for the hidden Stone as an enormous tree and a vibrant world appeared behind him.

• Bai Xuan dismissed Red Skull’s belief that the Soul Stone’s rules could not be overcome by a sufficiently powerful being.
• Bai Xuan manifested golden Runes that sealed space on Vormir and blocked gaps leading to other dimensions, preventing the Soul Stone from escaping.
• Bai Xuan told Red Skull that he sought the concepts and Rules represented by the Soul Stone, not merely its power.
• Bai Xuan analyzed Vormir and its surrounding spacetime with Nature Authority and Child of the Azure Sky, discovering the Soul Stone’s hiding place.
• Bai Xuan reached through reality and illusion to grasp the shifting Soul Stone as an enormous tree and vibrant world appeared behind him.

Bai Xuan seized the Soul Stone on Vormir without sacrificing a soul, leaving Red Skull bewildered and panicked. In the Chat Group, members questioned why Bai Xuan had sent Tony Stark one hundred million Points, until Bai Xuan clarified that the payment was for the Reality Stone.

• Bai Xuan used his powers to break the world surrounding the Soul Stone and took the gem despite Red Skull’s disbelief.
• Red Skull panicked after Bai Xuan departed with the Soul Stone, realizing that his own soul had not entered it.
• Tony Stark told the Chat Group that Bai Xuan had sent him one hundred million Points, prompting members to ask why he had been paid for the Soul Stone.
• Bai Xuan clarified that the Points were for the Reality Stone, and examined the sealed containers holding Aether.

Bai Xuan explained why he would obtain the Reality Stone from Tony’s world rather than buy one from the Chat Group, then integrated the Reality Stone and Soul Stone into the [Child of the Azure Sky] Status. The analysis of Tony’s world rose sharply, but the process risked consuming Bai Xuan’s soul, lifespan, realm, or memories if his energy ran out.

• Su Yunqing questioned why Bai Xuan planned to give Tony Points for the Reality Stone, and Bai Xuan argued that the group had also respected his world’s possessions.
• Su Yunqing asked whether Bai Xuan would pay Tony for the Space Stone and Mind Stone, while Ying Zinian suggested that items bought from the Chat Group might lack the world’s aura.
• Bai Xuan said he would wait until he integrated the Soul Stone and Reality Stone before deciding whether to acquire the other stones, since three Infinity Stones might be enough to analyze Eternity.
• Bai Xuan used the [Child of the Azure Sky] Status to transform the Soul Stone and Reality Stone into Rules and merge them into his body, stopping time in the region.
• The Status’s analysis of the world climbed from 10% to 20%, while the World Tree-based Celestial Computer consumed enormous energy and could eventually draw on Bai Xuan’s soul, lifespan, realm, or memories.

Bai Xuan underwent a prolonged transformation in Tony's world as the Soul Stone and Reality Stone changed his [Child of the Azure Sky] Status and advanced his life level. While he remained in an enlightened slumber, the Chat Group speculated about his condition and joked about Angel Yan's feelings for him.

• Bai Xuan absorbed new Rules through his [Nature Authority] as the world's lifeforms welcomed him, and his life level advanced further along the path of Deity.
• Su Yunqing asked why Bai Xuan had remained in Tony's world for three months, while Tony admitted he could not observe or locate him.
• Loki said Bai Xuan was likely in a transformative slumber and that the group should consider how much stronger he would become.
• Su Yunqing teased Angel Yan for worrying about Bai Xuan and revealed that she had bought a Travel Talisman and used the Sacred Knowledge Repository to check on him.
• Su Yunqing compared Angel Yan to Touma Kazusa and imagined Angel Yan claiming she had been first to meet, talk to, and fall in love with Bai Xuan.

Bai Xuan’s Enlightenment transformed his Authority and advanced his divine status, causing plants across Tony Stark’s Earth to grow rapidly. After awakening, Bai Xuan assessed his new power and summoned three Infinity Stones, while Tony and the Chat Group witnessed the upheaval.

• Tony Stark opened a Live Broadcast Room and showed the group a weed that had grown nearly four meters tall.
• Tony Stark explained that an energy surge had caused plants across Earth to grow rapidly, while largely sparing other living beings.
• Tony Stark saw a vast Deity phantom covered in falling Runes and realized the strange energy might be connected to Bai Xuan.
• Bai Xuan completed his transformation through Enlightenment, gaining greater Authority and advancing the concept of nature.
• Bai Xuan checked the effects on Earth, then summoned the Space Stone, Mind Stone, and Time Stone and recognized the power his Authority gave him over the world.

Bai Xuan returned from Tony Stark's world after resolving Eternity's arrangement and strengthening his authority. Back in his Small World, he reunited with Zhixin and Angel Yan and revealed that his Path of Divinity was complete.

• Bai Xuan learned that the five Deities were manifestations of the world's laws, and that Thanos had acted from his own pure dream rather than Death's guidance.
• Bai Xuan removed Eternity's humanity from Ancient One, leaving it to be reincarnated as a new life in the future.
• Bai Xuan sent the Time Stone, Space Stone, and Mind Stone away, then used a Travel Talisman to return to his own world.

• Bai Xuan embraced Zhixin, and Angel Yan arrived and teased them before joining them for tea.
• Bai Xuan told Angel Yan that his Nature Authority had improved and his Path of Divinity was complete.

Bai Xuan discussed the limits of using his [Child of the Azure Sky] Status to gain authority over other members’ worlds, then said Zhixin needed to advance her Divine Body. Angel Yan doubted that a Fifth Generation Divine Body was possible, since Angel Civilization had only established a direction for the technology.

• Angel Yan compared her growth with Bai Xuan’s and realized he could now defeat her even without Earth’s amplification.
• Bai Xuan said he would not seek authority over Chat Group members’ worlds without their consent, and Angel Yan considered who might agree.
• Bai Xuan said he needed time to absorb the changes from analyzing the Marvel World before visiting other worlds.
• Bai Xuan said Zhixin needed to advance her Divine Body, surprising Angel Yan, who noted that Zhixin already had a Fourth Generation Divine Body.
• Angel Yan recalled that Angel Civilization had only begun to confirm the direction of Fifth Generation Divine Body Technology and still needed a long time to develop it.

Bai Xuan began Zhixin’s mystic-path Divine Body ascension using World Tree Runes and sun-aligned resources, while Angel Yan watched. After a month, the sun’s Rules had been recorded in Zhixin’s body, and the process awaited its final energy replenishment.

• Bai Xuan explained to Angel Yan that the World Tree Rune-based mystic Divine Body was a theory he and Zhixin had developed together, not Fifth Generation Divine Body Technology.
• Zhixin lay beside the World Tree’s roots, and Bai Xuan began her ascension by channeling life essence, runes, and sun-aligned resources into her body.
• Bai Xuan used his Nature Authority to extract the sun’s element and Rules, helping Zhixin withstand their integration into her Fourth Generation Divine Body.
• A month passed as Angel Yan questioned Bai Xuan about the technique and observed the immense energy flowing into Zhixin.
• Bai Xuan confirmed that the sun’s Rules had been recorded in Zhixin’s Divine Body and waited for the energy replenishment to finish.

Bai Xuan reflected on how emotions had begun to affect his judgment, then told Angel Yan he needed to discuss Ancient One and Eternity. In the Chat Group, Su Yunqing described Huaxia’s strength in an upcoming youth tournament and questioned whether history followed an inevitable course.

• Bai Xuan admitted that he could no longer be certain he would remain perfectly rational when emotions affected him.
• Angel Yan asked Bai Xuan why he had not replied to the Chat Group and whether watching Zhixin had strained his eyes.
• Bai Xuan said the group was curious about what he had gained in the Marvel World and mentioned Ancient One and Eternity.
• Su Yunqing explained that she was not competing in the youth tournament because she was Huaxia’s strongest young Esper and her country had enough powerful participants.
• Su Yunqing noted the similarities between her world’s Mutant Creatures and Superpowers and those in Bai Xuan’s world, while acknowledging evidence that the worlds were separate.
• Su Yunqing questioned whether historical events were inevitable, citing the absence of comparable rulers in the West and the potential impact of butterfly effects.

Su Yunqing questioned whether Bai Xuan’s world was part of her own history, pointing to the absence of its powerful figures and Superpowers in her world. Tony Stark argued that the distinction did not matter to Bai Xuan, who could already read and alter the past and future through the Book of Ages; the conversation then turned to Angel Zhixin’s Divine Body advancement.

• Su Yunqing reasoned that without Bai Xuan and [Nature Authority], her world would not have developed the same history as Bai Xuan’s world.
• Su Yunqing recalled that Qin Tian, Huo Yu, Chen Bing, and other powerful figures from Bai Xuan’s world had no corresponding records in her world.
• Tony Stark said the worlds’ histories did not matter because neither Su Yunqing nor Bai Xuan had a relevant Memory Copy, and Bai Xuan could consult the Book of Ages.
• Su Yunqing admitted she had raised the topic because she was bored while waiting for her match to end.
• Su Yunqing noticed Angel Yan online and asked whether Angel Zhixin’s Divine Body advancement had finished.

Su Yunqing questioned why Angel Civilization had not developed Fifth Generation Divine Body Technology despite its resources and the Chat Group. Morgana and Angel Yan explained that advancing Divine Body Technology was exceptionally difficult and that peace in the Known Universe had removed the urgency that once drove research.

• Su Yunqing asked Angel Yan why Angel Civilization had not used Infinity Stones, Chat Group resources, or enhancement to develop Fifth Generation Divine Body Technology.
• Morgana argued that the gap between Divine Body generations was substantial, noting that only the Angels, Demons, and Styx had Fourth Generation technology and that Carl's Phantom Body did not qualify.
• Morgana said Carl could at most strengthen his Phantom Body and claimed that Hexi could not develop Fifth Generation Divine Body Technology either.
• Angel Yan agreed that the Known Universe had few threats to Angel Civilization and that the Justice Order had reduced conflict and urgent research.
• Angel Yan explained that Angel research now proceeded mainly for the civilization's future, personal interest, and curiosity about items from other worlds, so progress had slowed.

The group discussed Angel Civilization’s purchases of multiple Infinity Stones and Bai Xuan’s analysis of the Marvel Universe. Bai Xuan revealed that the analysis rate had reached 30%, which Tony described as 30% authority over the world, and admitted he had tested it by making three Stones disappear and reappear.

• Angel Yan explained that enhancing a Fourth Generation Divine Body would not give Angel Civilization Fifth Generation Divine Body technology.
• Su Yunqing revealed that she had guessed Angel Civilization bought several Infinity Stones, and Morgana questioned why they needed so many.
• Su Yunqing recalled the mutations across Tony Stark’s Earth after Bai Xuan analyzed the Soul and Reality Stones.
• Bai Xuan said the analysis rate had reached 30%, and Su Yunqing wondered whether the Infinity Stones’ Rules explained their contribution.
• Tony Stark called the analysis rate equivalent to world authority and asked whether Bai Xuan had made the Time, Space, and Mind Stones disappear and reappear.
• Bai Xuan confirmed he had been testing what a 30% analysis rate could do.

Shuten-doji found the injured Mutant Snake Person, subdued her, and recruited her into his fledgling yokai faction. He sensed Luoshui Sanxian nearby, leaving their encounter imminent.
