Chapter Summaries

A hundred years later, Green taught the gods of the Dominion Pantheon how to construct energy cycles and fuse materials while investigating how to create another Great Divine Power. He discovered that the Divine World's structure had assigned all its power to the Four Great Thrones, leaving no room for another force.

• Green gave the gods of the Dominion Pantheon a month to create life-forms capable of completing an energy cycle and fusing with other materials.
• The gods struggled with Green's lessons, while Yugulos proved the most talented and Kossuth admitted he still could not explain how to connect the Localized Order Field to the Cyclic Energy Field.
• Green rejected the idea of using faith alone to create a Great Divine Power because it would not change the deity's nature and could cause the world to collapse.
• Green examined the Divine World's structure and found that Order, Chaos, Goodness, Evil, and the World Will already accounted for all of its power.

Green discovered that adding a single new Great Divine Power throne caused the Divine World to collapse, but simulations showed that introducing opposing powers together could preserve its balance. He concluded that aspiring deities would need counterparts who could restrain them, and prepared to act before leaving.

• Green simulated adding a Soul Throne and watched the Divine World collapse as powerful souls weakened bodies and threw the world's forces into chaos.
• For more than ten years, Green taught the Dominion Pantheon about Order Divine Power and tested different thrones, but every single throne eventually destroyed the simulated world.
• Green realized the Divine World was dualistic and tested introducing the opposing powers of Flesh and the Soul Throne together.
• Green confirmed that opposing powers could stabilize the Divine World and concluded that deities seeking Great Divine Power would need counterparts of the opposite nature.

Green told the Dominion Pantheon gods that he had discovered a way for Greater Divine Powers to attain Great Divine Power without the Four Great Thrones. He said two opposing gods had to ascend together to preserve the world’s balance, then left to notify the World Will and make changes.

• Green gathered the Dominion Pantheon gods and revealed he had been seeking another way to attain Great Divine Power for more than a hundred years.
• Green explained that a single new being with Great Divine Power could destabilize the Divine World, so two opposing beings had to ascend together.
• Green told Kossuth that he might ascend alongside Istishia, the Water Element Primary Deity, and Kossuth agreed to consider the plan.
• Green said he needed to notify the World Will and make changes before the method could be used.
• Green opened a passage and flew toward the Origin Force Sea.

Green gave the World Will new paths to ascension and accepted authority over a share of the world's Origin Force, weakening the Four Great Thrones and his Avatar's bond to the Divine World. In Mercuria, Bahamut's study of the Book of Holiness was interrupted by the change, and he and the Gold Dragons gathered in human forms.

• Green gave the World Will information about new ways for gods to ascend, earning praise and Faith Force from the deities.
• Green refused the World Will's offer to sustain him with one-fifth of the Divine World's power, warning that it would unbalance Order and Chaos.
• The World Will granted Green command over one-quarter of the world's Origin Force and cut off the Four Great Thrones' supply, weakening Green's Avatar's connection to the Divine World.
• Green returned to his Divine Realm, while the Divine World's gods reacted to the sudden upheaval.
• Bahamut's study of the Supreme Good Source in the Book of Holiness was interrupted by a ripple from the Origin Force, and he transformed into an elderly Knight.
• The praying Gold Dragons rose and transformed into human forms, including Knights, nobles, Mages, and adventurers.

After learning from the God of Order that deities could reach Great Divine Power without relying on the Four Great Thrones, Bahamut considered creating a throne with Tiamat, the only deity whose power complemented his own. His Gold Dragons proposed a vote among all Metallic Dragons, and Bahamut agreed to proceed only if more than 80% approved.

• The God of Order's revelation gave Bahamut and the Gold Dragons information about ascending to Great Divine Power without the Four Great Thrones.
• Bahamut decided he would rather create a throne through his own power, and he identified Tiamat as the only suitable partner.
• Bahamut explained his plan to the Gold Dragons, who struggled with the idea of their god cooperating with their ancient enemy.
• Kuliya proposed a vote among all Metallic Dragons, and Gruma and the other Gold Dragons supported him.
• Bahamut set an approval threshold of more than 80% before he would pursue the plan, and the Gold Dragons agreed.

Bahamut asked the Metallic Dragons to vote on whether he and Tiamat should ascend together to Great Divine Power, warning that ascending alone might twist him. As opposition approached 20%, Tiamat promised to end Chromatic Dragon mass slaughter during conquest and expansion, and the proposal passed the 80% approval threshold.

• Bahamut sent every Metallic Dragon a message asking them to vote on his joint ascension with Tiamat, while hibernating dragons were automatically counted as opposed.
• The Metallic Dragons argued over whether to support Bahamut or oppose Tiamat’s potential rise in power, and the opposition vote climbed toward 20%.
• Tiamat addressed the Metallic Dragons and promised that Chromatic Dragons would stop committing mass slaughter during conquest and expansion if she and Bahamut ascended together.
• Tiamat’s offer led many Metallic Dragons to reconsider their votes, and support for the proposal climbed toward 80%.
• The Metallic Dragons’ approval crossed the 80% threshold, and a Gold Dragon accepted the result for the sake of all life.

Thirty years later, Bahamut and Tiamat began their attempt to merge their power with the Divine World's Great Cycle and ascend to Greater Divine Power. Their powers formed two new energy channels, and they entered cocoons as the decisive stage of the attempt began.

• Tiamat spread wealth among Chromatic Dragons, gaining enough faith to raise her total Godhead level to 25 and meet the requirements for ascension.
• Bahamut and Tiamat revealed their True Bodies above the Silver Origin Force Sea as dragons and deities gathered to watch their ceremony.
• Bahamut and Tiamat joined their powers to the Great Cycle and declared their intention to surpass the limits of Greater Divine Power.
• Their powers created two spiraling energy channels, whose colliding energies began producing primitive dragon-blooded creatures across the planes.
• Bahamut and Tiamat entered separate cocoons, beginning the crucial stage in which success would let them draw power from the Great Cycle, while failure would likely end their chances of ascending.

Tiamat and Bahamut completed their ascension, becoming the King of Good Dragons and the Mother of Evil Dragons and gaining Great Divine Power. Green watched from his Divine Realm and prepared to leave through a Plane Passage after offering them his blessings.

• Metallic Dragons and Chromatic Dragons prayed, sending Faith Force to Tiamat and Bahamut as their ascension progressed.
• Tiamat and Bahamut's thrones left the Pantheon and formed two new thrones as the conduits reached completion.
• The conduits completed their cycle, the Origin Force Sea surged, and Tyr recognized that Tiamat and Bahamut had passed the crucial test.
• Tiamat and Bahamut emerged from their cocoons, proclaimed their titles, and received the Origin Force Sea's acknowledgment.
• Green watched the ascension from his Divine Realm and opened a Plane Passage, intending to offer the newly ascended Dragon Gods his blessings.

After Tiamat and Bahamut ascended to Great Divine Power, Green warned them to strengthen their weak Authorities and return to stabilize their cycles. Their rise transformed the Dragon Race and brought new dragon species and believers into the world, while Green prepared the Dominion Pantheon for the final stage of Order Force instruction.

• Green congratulated Tiamat and Bahamut, then warned them that their new powers would remain unstable unless they strengthened their cycles in their Divine Realms.
• Tiamat and Bahamut departed, and the other gods left to study what they had learned from the ascension.
• The Dragon Race gained greater resistance, intelligence, and potential, while new dragon species appeared and brought Bahamut and Tiamat many devoted believers.
• Green returned to his Divine Realm, where Dominion Pantheon deities showed widely varying progress in mastering the Order Force.
• Green concluded that unified instruction no longer suited the pantheon and prepared to remove those who could not take part in the final stage.

Green allowed the gods who could not keep up with his Order Force lessons to leave, then spent nineteen years teaching Yugulos to construct Order Force. After warning Yugulos against mastering it completely, Green confirmed he would leave the Divine World once Yugulos took over Order Divine Power, and Yugulos’s Godhead Flame began to dim.

• Kossuth and many other Dominion Pantheon gods withdrew from Green’s lessons, leaving Yugulos as his sole student.
• Green taught Yugulos the core structure of Order Force, and Yugulos gradually built a nearly perfect mechanical system of gears.
• Green interrupted Yugulos before he completed the construction and warned him that fully mastering Order Force would let it assimilate him.
• Yugulos asked Green whether he planned to leave the Divine World after Yugulos became the God of Order, and Green confirmed that he did.
• Yugulos’s expression darkened, and his Godhead Flame began to dim.

Green prepared Yugulos to inherit the Throne of Order, giving him a wisp of aura from the Endless Void and later judging him ready to take the throne. As Yugulos swore to uphold Order, Green separated his soul from his Godhead, surrendering the throne’s power and leaving his own strength drastically diminished.

• Green gave Yugulos a wisp of aura from the Endless Void and told him that transcending the Origin River would depend on his own abilities.
• One year later, Green announced that Yugulos had completed the construction of Order Force and asked if he would safeguard the world’s order and Great Cycle.
• Yugulos swore to uphold the will of Order and maintain the workings of the Divine World.
• Green began separating his soul from his Ash Gray gear-shaped Godhead as the Throne of Order appeared above him.
• Green’s power fell from Great Divine Power to Greater Divine Power, the throne’s carvings vanished, and his Red Dragon body grew dull and aged-looking.

Green passed the Dominion Pantheon’s leadership to Yugulos after Yugulos succeeded in inheriting Order Force, then sealed his body beneath his Divine Realm and sent his soul into the Void River. Sevyla took control of the Divine Realm and vowed to care for Green’s Believers.

• Green gave Yugulos the Order Force trial, and Yugulos fused his Godhead and became the Dominion Pantheon’s second Primary Deity.
• Green told Yugulos to lead the pantheon, warned him against making its survival an obsession, and sent him and the other gods to complete the handover.
• Green gave Sevyla the golden key to control his Divine Realm and used its power to seal his body beneath the realm.
• Sevyla failed to reach Green through the seal, then resolved to carry out his request and protect his Believers.
• Green’s soul left the Divine World and followed the Formation’s pull into the Void River.

Green reunited with the soul that had returned from the Divine World and prepared his powerful Flesh Puppet for its final Spirit Awakening. He began activating the altar that would grant the Puppet its own sentience and allow it to take over for his Avatar.

• Green left the experimental building with a replacement Flesh Puppet and erased the laboratory.
• The soul from the Divine World returned to Green, destroying the Formation and the robot beside it.
• Green checked the Chip’s readings and found that his fused Avatar was a Seventh-Level Life while his Puppet Clone was a Tenth-Level Life.
• Green inspected the altar and confirmed that it held enough Soul Essence to awaken the Flesh Puppet.
• Green began chanting the activation incantation as the altar lit up and its blue Soul Power crystals dissolved.

Green created a sentient replacement in the Blood-Red World, then destroyed his body and reunited with his true body outside the Origin River Void. He checked his updated status and left the final fusion of Omniscience unfinished until he could find a safe place.

• Green used the Blood-Red World's Origin Force to awaken a new soul inside the Flesh Puppet and imparted knowledge of the Origin River Void, the Infinite Divine Machine, and the Flesh Lord.
• Green informed the Infinite Divine Machine and the Flesh Lord that he was leaving and had left them a replacement in the Blood-Red World.
• Green released the energy he had taken from the Origin River Void, let his body crumble to ash, and sent his soul through the Spacetime Barrier.
• Green's soul reached his true body outside the Origin River Void and reunited with it.
• Green checked his status and saw that Omniscience was 99.99% complete, with its final fusion still pending.

Green returned toward the Endless Void after realizing his power had grown with his changed mindset, while his departure reshaped the Divine World and the Primordial River. He could not enter the Endless Void with his true body, and discovered Ninth-Level Lifeforms had infiltrated it before sending in part of himself.

• Green decided to return to the Endless Void to visit Old Green and Ashlyn before seeking a place to break through.
• The Divine World honored Green with a Ruler God's Throne, while Yugulos killed an evil dragon attempting God Ascension and deterred further challenges to the Dominion Pantheon.
• Flesh Lord and Infinite Divine Machine formed an Alliance with the Blood-Red Lord and began developing the Blood-Red World and consuming other worlds.
• Green arrived at the outskirts of the Endless Void and saw that Ninth-Level Lifeforms had infiltrated the Wizard Civilization and the Bloodline Lifeforms.
• Green split off part of his soul and flesh and sent it into the Endless Void because his true body could not enter.

Green entered the Endless Void and expelled several Ninth-Level Lives, then returned to his main body in Hyperspace after spending three Eras with Ashlyn, Old Green, and their civilizations. With his preparations in place and their Transcendence assured, he set out to complete Omniscience.

• Green entered the Endless Void, and its Void Will seized several Ninth-Level Lives and hurled them into Hyperspace.
• Green subdued the expelled beings, stripped them of their strength, and discarded them in Hyperspace.
• Three Eras later, Green's consciousness returned to his main body after he had supported Ashlyn, Old Green, Wizard Civilization, and the Bloodline Creatures.
• Green prepared to complete Omniscience, leaving a powerful projection in the Endless Void to protect those he left behind.
• Green implanted Creation Force Fragments in Old Green and the others so they could resist Nothingness through Void Reincarnations and eventually ascend.

Green completed Omniscience and fused four powers into a new, inexhaustible force that melded his body, soul, and will. He discovered that the force let him perceive other layers of Hyperspace and began looking farther beyond his own.

• Green used Omniscience of Sight to find a remote, low-Void region of Hyperspace.
• After flying for ten thousand years, Green created a Spacetime Barrier and asked the Chip to解除 the seal on the final 0.01% of his Mental Will Force.
• When Omniscience was completed, Green's Omniscience of Sight, Omniscience, Creation Force, and Void Force fused into a new power that could not be stripped away or depleted.
• Green perceived another Hyperspace, learned that its Voids were connected and its highest power was the Dao, and judged that its path was wrong.
• Green adjusted the new power's output and saw through the nearby Hyperspace to a more distant one.

Green examined the power systems of several other hyperspaces, comparing their strengths and dangers with his own. He concluded that his hyperspace’s balance and Void Force made it safer and resistant to outside powers.

• Green learned that Mythic Daluo in the Second Hyperspace possessed vast abilities but could lose their identities or have their status usurped.
• Green examined the Third Hyperspace, where Anomalous Objects and endlessly escalating Supreme Divinity repeatedly rewrote worlds and caused chaos.
• Green surveyed additional hyperspaces, finding power systems that pursued strength without limit or even passed beyond nothingness into denial of existence.
• Green felt relieved that his own hyperspace had a balance between Ninth-Level Lifeforms and the Void, unlike the chaotic systems he had explored.
• Green concluded that the Hyperspace Barrier depended on perception and that Void Force could nullify powers from other hyperspaces.

Green tested his ability to destroy the Hyperspace Barrier but stopped before opening a passage, wary of the consequences. He then used the Chip to inspect his transformed power and learned it was Omniscience and Omnipotence Force, which required his commands to provide feedback.

• Green touched the Hyperspace Barrier and learned that his power of "nothing" could destroy it, but chose not to test that ability further.
• Green suppressed his power, causing the unfamiliar hyperspace scenery to return to its familiar dark appearance.
• Green asked the Chip to inspect his condition because his new power felt difficult to control and his body could not fully bear it.
• The Chip identified Green's new power as Omniscience and Omnipotence Force and reported that it was not fully activated and would not provide feedback unless he issued an order.
• Green examined his customizable attributes and concluded that even power described as able to destroy everything could not destroy "nothing."

Green tested the Omniscience and Omnipotence Force and discovered that direct contact exposed him to dangerous high-level logic, while commands based on his thoughts could make it act. He left the chapter understanding its risks and instructed the Chip to screen his future commands.

• Green touched the Omniscience and Omnipotence Force with a wisp of mental power, suffered an assault of high-level logic, and had the Chip erase the knowledge.
• Green recalled how the force had responded to his will and thought, then commanded it to give him a vast amount of knowledge.
• The Chip intercepted the incoming knowledge and warned Green that the volume could overwhelm his cognition and force him into a prolonged slumber.
• Green ordered the force to stop and the Chip to sort the intercepted knowledge, concluding that the power was perfect but its users were not.
• Green instructed the Chip to analyze future commands and block them if they posed a danger.
