Di Tian introduced Yue Zhengen, Dong Zi'an, and Guo Zhenfeng to the idea that gods still existed and offered to take one of them to meet one. Dong Zi'an entered the Dragon God Space with Yun Ze and returned before ten minutes had passed, badly shaken by what he had witnessed.

• The three chose Dong Zi'an, and Gu Yue Na activated the Dragon God's Heart to send him and Yun Ze into the Dragon God Space.
• Dong Zi'an and Yun Ze returned before ten minutes had passed, and Dong Zi'an collapsed, trembling and frozen from the experience.

Dong Zi'an confirmed that Dragon Phoenix Hall had access to a real god, and Di Tian used that revelation and the promise of the Method of Becoming God to secure the Three Great Legions’ cooperation. After Gu Yue Na warned them about the Abyssal Sage King, Yun Ze’s group returned to Dragon Phoenix Hall to court other council members.

After the Speaker’s murder, Federation officials debated whether to hold an early reelection, but the proposal was shelved amid widespread opposition. Yu Guan Zhi then met with military and Spirit Transfer Pagoda leaders to discuss suspicions about the Dragon Phoenix Hall, leaving them troubled by Yun Ze’s overwhelming power.

• Yu Guan Zhi chaired an emergency parliament session where councilors debated how to maintain the Federation after the Speaker’s assassination.
• Di Tian and the others, along with Gu Ming, Xu Lin, Yue Zhengen, Yu Guan Zhi, and several military leaders, opposed holding the Speaker election before the Federation Election.

• Leng Yaozhu and the others worried that even if the Dragon Phoenix Hall was responsible, Yun Ze’s godlike strength would make confronting it nearly impossible.

Yu Guan Zhi and the others failed to find evidence linking Dragon Phoenix Hall to the Speaker's assassination, while the Hall grew richer and more popular through its public projects. As the Federation Election approached, Dragon Phoenix Hall sought fifty councilor seats, and officials learned that nearly ninety percent of the public supported its candidates.

• Yu Guan Zhi and the others agreed they would expose and fight Dragon Phoenix Hall if its crimes were confirmed, but their investigation into the Speaker's assassination made no progress.

• Yu Guan Zhi's officials found that nearly ninety percent of the public intended to support Dragon Phoenix Hall's candidates, leaving them furious and alarmed.

The Federation Government tried to curb Dragon Phoenix Hall’s growing public support by suspending several charity projects, while the two sides continued maneuvering ahead of the Federation Election. In Dragon God Space, Yun Ze completed the Titan Giant Ape Mecha, giving his group three god-level mecha and leaving Gu Yue Na relieved that they could now stand against the Plane Master.

• Yu Guan Zhi and the Federation Government halted several charity projects connected to Dragon Phoenix Hall and ordered the organizations involved to undergo review.
• Dragon Phoenix Hall responded to the suspensions by having major media outlets publish articles urging the government on, while its struggle with the Federation Government continued with three days remaining before the election began.
• Yun Ze assembled the Titan Giant Ape Mecha by hand in Dragon God Space as Gu Yue Na watched.
• Yun Ze installed the Heavenly God Rod as the mecha’s energy source, merged the Titan Giant Ape Soul Spirit into it, and tested its movements and god-level power.
• Gu Yue Na noted that the Ice Dragon King Mecha, Azure Dragon Mecha, and Titan Giant Ape Mecha were all complete, and felt relieved that their combined strength could challenge the Plane Master.

Yun Ze completed three god-level mecha and judged that they could help him withstand the Plane Master during his planned breakthrough to godhood at level seventy. He began forging his own battle armor, intending to complete it alongside his breakthrough and confront the Plane Master.

• Yun Ze summoned the Ice Dragon King Mecha and Azure Dragon Mecha to join the Titan Giant Ape Mecha, completing his three god-level mecha.
• Yun Ze told Gu Yue Na to reach the Divine Origin Realm in spiritual power so they could retrieve the remaining Golden Dragon King Bloodline, and Gu Yue Na said she expected to break through within a month.
• Yun Ze left the Titan Giant Ape Soul Spirit inside its mecha, stored the three mecha in the Dragon God Space, and returned to his room to recover through cultivation.
• The next day, Yun Ze resumed forging and began making his battle armor from Cosmic Metal and rare metals, planning to complete it as he became a god and faced the Plane Master.

As the Federation Election approached, Di Tian and the other soul beasts tried to persuade Yu Guan Zhi to submit to Dragon Phoenix Hall, revealing its connection to the gods. The assembly then convened with Dragon Phoenix Hall’s formidable delegation in attendance, while Yu Guan Zhi’s resolve to resist continued to weaken.

• On Yun Ze’s instructions, Di Tian, Yue Zhengen, Dong Zi'an, Guo Zhenfeng, Gu Ming, and Xu Lin visited Yu Guan Zhi and urged him to cooperate with Dragon Phoenix Hall.
• Yu Guan Zhi learned that Dragon Phoenix Hall was connected to gods and, after confirming its power, said he would consider its proposal.
• Yu Guan Zhi presided over the Federation Election assembly because the Federation Speaker’s position was vacant.

• Yu Guan Zhi assessed Dragon Phoenix Hall’s powerful delegation and, remembering the previous night’s revelations, felt his resolve to resist wavering.

The Federation began its councilor election after removing most councilors tied to Shrek and the Tang Sect, and Di Tian and other Dragon Phoenix Hall candidates delivered their campaign statements. The first vote, on Di Tian’s application for a Core Councilor seat, began as the chapter ended.

• Yu Guan Zhi announced the dismissal list, and the meeting voted to remove eleven of the fourteen councilors whose status remained undecided.

• After most core votes favored Yun Tian, Yu Guan Zhi weighed resistance against compromise and voted in favor to avoid a bloody conflict with Dragon Phoenix Hall.
• Leng Yaozhu abstained, while the Shen Family and Wang Family Heads voted in favor after deciding to stop opposing Dragon Phoenix Hall.

• Yu Guan Zhi announced that Yun Tian had advanced to the second stage of the election ahead of schedule.

Di Tian secured Yu Guan Zhi’s agreement to submit to Dragon Phoenix Hall in exchange for a promise to share the Method of Becoming God, while Dragon Phoenix Hall’s candidates drew strong support in the Federation Election. The Sea God Family rejected Yu Guan Zhi’s pleas to submit, leaving the conflict unresolved.

• Di Tian confirmed that Yu Guan Zhi would submit to Dragon Phoenix Hall, and promised to share the Method of Becoming God after the election.

• Chen ZeYu berated Yu Guan Zhi for yielding to Dragon Phoenix Hall, and Yu Guan Zhi attacked and severely injured him.
• Yu Guan Zhi urged the Sea God Family to stop opposing Dragon Phoenix Hall and relayed Dragon Phoenix Hall’s demand that they submit and surrender control of the Sea God Legion.
• The Sea God Family rejected the demand, declared that it would never bow to another force, and told Yu Guan Zhi to warn Dragon Phoenix Hall not to provoke them.

After the Sea God Legion and East Sea Legion disappeared from their bases, Yu Guan Zhi suspected Dragon Phoenix Hall but learned it was not responsible. Yun Ze and Gu Yue Na concluded the Sea God Family had likely defected to the Star Luo Empire, while Yun Ze saw little reason to warn Yu Guan Zhi.

• Yu Guan Zhi learned that the Sea God Legion and East Sea Legion had left their bases and ordered the Military Department to locate them.
• The Military Department could not track either legion because their ships’ positioning devices had been removed.
• Yu Guan Zhi asked Di Tian whether Dragon Phoenix Hall had caused the disappearances, and Di Tian denied knowing about them.
• Di Tian told Yun Ze and Gu Yue Na about the missing legions, and Yun Ze predicted the Sea God Family had gone to seek refuge in the Star Luo Empire.
• Gu Yue Na reasoned that the Sea God Family had no viable choice but to defect, and Yun Ze said he had not warned Yu Guan Zhi because the defection had little impact on them.

After the East Sea Legion and Sea God Legion defected, Yu Guan Zhi’s leaders concealed the news and struggled to find a way to punish them. Meanwhile, the two fleets sailed toward Star Luo Continent under Chen ZeYu’s strict watch, with about two days remaining before landfall.

• Yun Ze told Di Tian they could let the fleeing forces escape for now and deal with them later alongside the issues in Dragon Valley Space and Qilin Space.
• Yu Guan Zhi confirmed that the East Sea Legion and Sea God Legion had defected after discovering that their senior officers’ families had disappeared.

• The military leaders struggled to find a way to reach the defectors across the ocean, while Dragon Phoenix Hall withheld a possible solution.
• Chen ZeYu ordered the fleet to remain alert as its more than thirty warships sailed toward Star Luo Continent, roughly two days from arrival.

• Di Tian vowed that Dragon Phoenix Hall would punish the traitorous legions, and Yu Guan Zhi said the Federation would deploy troops and might declare war if Star Luo continued sheltering them.

Yu Guan Zhi and the Federation's military leaders discussed how to overcome the Sea God Legion and East Sea Legion before invading the Star Luo Empire. Gu Yue Na revealed that Yun Ze had arranged a treasure capable of stirring the sea, leaving the commanders hopeful that the navies could be neutralized.

• Yu Guan Zhi explained that the Federation could not safely invade by sea or air because its forces could not overcome the two Star Luo navies.
• Yu Guan Zhi proposed that Yun Ze destroy the Sea God Legion's aircraft carrier with his Mountain Dragon King Soul Spirit, followed by an attack from the Limit Douluos and Federation legions.

• Gu Yue Na revealed that Yun Ze had arranged a treasure that could create waves powerful enough to overturn the enemy warships.
• Yu Guan Zhi rose excitedly and asked whether such a treasure truly existed.

The Federation declared war on the Star Luo Empire and mobilized its forces, while Dragon Phoenix Hall stayed ready to support the campaign. The Star Luo court panicked and discussed ways to repel the invasion, leaving the Spirit Pagoda out of its deliberations.

• Gu Yue Na’s hint convinced Yu Guan Zhi, Yue Zhengen, and the others that a deity had helped create the treasure they would use.
• Di Tian hosted a press conference, claimed credit for Federation victories, declared war on the Star Luo Empire, and announced Dragon Phoenix Hall would target Federation traitors.

The Star Luo Empire prepared for war against the Federation while the Dou Ling Emperor refused to ally with it, hoping the two powers would weaken each other.

• The Star Luo Empire mobilized troops and acquired powerful Tang Sect weapons, while the Sea God Legion and East Sea Legion moved to defend its western coast.
• The Star Luo Emperor asked the Dou Ling Emperor to form an alliance, but the Dou Ling Emperor refused after the Federation threatened to treat Dou Ling's involvement as an act of war.

• Leng Yaozhu informed Yu Guan Zhi and the Dragon Phoenix Hall that the Spirit Pagoda had not officially sided with Star Luo, and they urged her to limit its personnel on the battlefield.
• Nearly a month after the Federation declared war, the Northern Sea Legion stood ready as more than three hundred cruise ships were prepared, and the Western, Southern, and Northwest Legions began boarding at the East Coast.

Yu Guan Zhi led the Federation’s Four Great Legions and Dragon Phoenix Hall’s forces across the sea toward the Star Luo Continent, while the army prepared to approach the coast undetected. The chapter left the expedition less than a thousand li from its destination, with aerial surveillance and satellites being deployed to monitor Star Luo.

• Yu Guan Zhi ordered the fleet carrying the army and supplies to sail from the sealed East Coast region, with the Northern Sea Legion’s warships guarding the passenger ships.
