Yang Fan watched the final battle against Lufa’s Angel Race as a military review, ordering his forces to reveal the strength of their believers after years of relying on mechanical defenses. The four non-mechanical armies advanced in formation, and Lufa mistook the shift for a sign that the enemy’s machines had run out.

• Yang Da reported that Yang Fan’s army had reached the Angel Race’s Divine Kingdom Core, where Lufa prepared his final defensive line.
• Yang Shi-One’s zombie army suffered severe losses because the Angel Race’s holy light suppressed corpse cultivation, but Yang Si said orders required the battle to serve as a review for Yang Fan.
• Yang Fan ordered the army to demonstrate its believers’ combat strength, and Yang Da relayed the command to the frontline.
• Yang Si began the second phase, moving the Intelligent Gundams and Mechanical War Puppets aside to reveal the cultivation, martial cultivation, artificial lifeform, and elven armies.
• Yang Wu arranged the four armies into the Four Symbols Heavenly Evolution Formation, prompting Lufa to hope that the mechanical forces had been depleted.

Lufa sent the Fallen Angel army to attack Yang Fan’s forces, expecting to destroy the artificial lifeforms and turn the Intelligent Gundams into scrap. Yang Si’s troops held their formation against the charge, and Yang Ba began unleashing the Martial Cultivation followers’ Battle Bodies as the battle escalated.

• Lufa concluded that the Fallen Angels’ numbers gave them the advantage and commanded them to kill the invaders and their artificial lifeforms.
• Yang Si ordered Yang Wu, Yang Liu, Yang Qi, Yang Ba, Yang Jiu, and Yang Shi to follow the battle plan and hold their positions.
• The Fallen Angels charged into the Martial Cultivation followers’ fourth-grade intelligent shields, but their spears and momentum failed to break through.
• Yang Ba received Yang Si’s permission and ordered the Martial Cultivation followers to unleash their Battle Bodies.
• The Martial Masters and Martial Kings expanded to ten meters tall as Yang Ba summoned dozens of Immortal War-Spirit Steles onto the battlefield.

Yang Fan watched the Myriad Forms Martial Court’s Battle Body believers overwhelm the Fallen Angels, forcing Lufa to redirect his army toward the rear. Yang Si ordered the Heavenly Court’s cultivation believers to form arrays and engage the attackers, leaving the battle poised for their first demonstration of strength.

• Yang Da explained that Battle Body talent transformed Martial Arts Believers into towering giants with greatly increased strength, defense, and blood energy.
• The Battle Body believers smashed through the Fallen Angel army with their bodies and shields while cultivation believers criticized their crude fighting style.
• Lufa ordered the Fallen Angels to bypass the Martial Cultivation legion and attack the artificial lifeforms and other troops in the rear.
• A Martial Master prepared to turn his shield into a cannon, but his commander stopped him because the battle was a review of the Myriad Forms Martial Court’s own strength.
• Yang Si ordered the Heavenly Court’s cultivation believers to form ten-thousand-person Myriad Spirits Returning to Origin Formations, and twelve Immortal-Slaying Pagodas appeared as their safeguard.

Yang Fan watched Heavenly Court cultivators devastate Lufa’s Fallen Angel army with varied spells and magical tools, while the artificial lifeforms unleashed synchronized precision plasma strikes. Lufa suspected the opposing gods came from the Human Race’s Five Great Families as Fallen Angels rained across his Divine Kingdom.

• Heavenly Court cultivators ignored Yang Si’s formation order and attacked the Fallen Angels with spirit-body abilities, spells, talismans, poisons, and magical artifacts.
• Yang Da explained to Yang Fan how the Heavenly Court trained believers with special spirit bodies, and Yang Fan considered the power he might wield before choosing to stay safe.

• Lufa suspected the three opposing gods belonged to the Human Race’s Five Great Families because of their powerful mechanical, cultivation, and martial legacies.
• The artificial lifeforms synchronized their plasma cannons and precisely struck each Fallen Angel, sending corpses falling across the Divine Kingdom.

Yang Fan's forces annihilated Lufa's vanguard, and the Angel Race army's morale collapsed. After the four Angel Race gods failed to send help, Lufa redirected his remaining believers to attack Yang Shi's zombie army while Yang Fan's forces advanced into the exposed core region.

• Elven Warriors joined the battle, shooting down the Fallen Angels who survived the artificial lifeforms' first attack and helping annihilate Lufa's vanguard in under fifteen minutes.
• Angel Race believers lost their will to fight, and Lufa abandoned hope of winning and sent his Divine Kingdom coordinates to the four Angel Race gods who had supported him.
• As Yang Fan's army pushed back the Angel Race defenses, Lufa waited for reinforcements, but none arrived.
• Lufa accepted that the other gods had abandoned him and ordered his believers to leave their defensive lines and attack Yang Shi's zombie army.
• Yang Si questioned why the Angel Race had abandoned its core region, then followed Yang Shi's angry demand and ordered all legions to accelerate their advance into it.

Yang Fan's forces captured the Angel Race's Divine Kingdom Core while Yang Shi's zombie army suffered heavy losses holding back the Fallen Angels. Lufa calmly accepted defeat and asked to meet his conquerors, but when Yang Fan appeared alone, he wondered where the others were.

• Yang Shi ordered most of his zombie army to retreat while a rear guard fought the Angel Race, refusing to risk valuable white jiangshi believers.
• Yang Si's army captured the undefended core region, and an Intelligent Gundam pulled Lufa's thousand-foot Divine Kingdom Core from the earth.

• Yang Fan confirmed with Yang Da that Lufa could not relay information outside the Divine Kingdom, then descended through his believers' spatial channel.
• Lufa watched Yang Fan arrive alone and asked why the others had not appeared.

Yang Fan killed Lufa after learning that Lufa had mistaken the invasion for a coordinated attack by several gods. Lufa died cursing the human nobles, and Yang Fan ordered his forces to salvage the Angel Race Divine Kingdom for valuable buildings and military merit.

• Lufa accused Yang Fan of using enormous resources to destroy his Divine Kingdom, and Yang Fan explained that he wanted its Divine Kingdom Core.
• Yang Fan asked whether Lufa knew other gods’ Divine Kingdom Coordinates, but Lufa took the question as further mockery and refused to cooperate.
• Lufa cursed the human nobles and destroyed his own divine soul, dying before Yang Fan could get any coordinates.
• Yang Fan returned to his Divine Kingdom and ordered Yang Da to have Yang Er lead the Otherworld Collectors in gathering valuable resources, especially high-end Angel Race buildings.
• Yang Fan valued the captured buildings because turning in S-class Alien Race buildings could earn more military merit than killing a god.

Yang Fan used Lu Yanran’s gifts and settled into a quiet life with Lu Wan while expanding his network of Divine Vassals and collecting Divine Kingdom Cores. The chapter ended with Ma Mian and Niu Tou reporting that the demigods they had challenged in the Foreign-Race Divine Kingdom District had finally died.

• Yang Fan deployed Lu Yanran’s hundred thousand Earthcore Spirit Marrow Source Nests throughout his Divine Kingdom and added the Heavenly Pool as a place for believers to relax.
• Yang Fan returned to Lu Wan’s villa and spent peaceful days with her while Yang Da managed his Divine Kingdom and Ma Yu expanded the Yang Group.
• Yang Fan instructed Li Tianheng to offer demigods five percent more for signing Divine Vassal Contracts, then had Yang Da deduce the coordinates of the delivered Divine Kingdom Cores.
• Ten days later, Ma Mian and Niu Tou told Yang Fan that the demigods they had challenged in the Foreign-Race Divine Kingdom District were dead.

Yang Fan received reports on the completed Angel Race salvage operation and the cleanup of the Foreign-Race Divine Kingdom District, gaining valuable buildings and Divine Kingdom Cores. He rewarded his artificial lifeforms and urged Lingxu Zi to advance quickly so he could contribute more in the next war.

• Yang Fan began studying Divine Kingdom warfare and military command after realizing that his knowledge lagged behind his growing strength.
• Yang Da reported that the Angel Race salvage operation was complete and listed the recovered Divine Kingdom Core and buildings.
• Yang Yi reported acquiring one Dark Elf Divine Kingdom Core, one Heaven-Sea Demon Race Divine Kingdom Core, fourteen human demigod Divine Kingdom Cores, and numerous buildings.
• Yang Fan rewarded Yang Yi with ten billion Divinity Points and granted each of the other artificial lifeforms five hundred Mechanical Hearts.
• Yang Da reported that Lingxu Zi's Divine Kingdom Area had reached seventy million square kilometers and that he was nearing the Godhood Realm.
• Yang Fan told Lingxu Zi to break through soon and prepare for a greater role in the next Divine Kingdom war.

Yang Fan ordered further investment in the Void Spirit Race and reviewed the Divine Kingdom Cores he had collected. After earning ten million military merit for killing Lufa, he decided to accelerate expansion by signing more Divine Vassal Contracts and using simulations to find Alien Race gods’ Divine Kingdom coordinates.

• Yang Fan told Yang Da to buy more cultivation resources so Lingxu Zi could become a god and strengthen the Void Spirit Race.
• Yang Fan dismissed his followers, then brought out his collected Divine Kingdom Cores and told Yang Da to submit the Angel Race’s information for military merit verification.
• The Frontline military merit system awarded Yang Fan ten million military merit for killing Lufa.
• Yang Da predicted that Yang Fan’s SSS-Rank Evolution Talent could produce a Ninth-Tier Artificial Lifeform before the Divine Kingdom reached High-Tier God size.
• Yang Fan said he would sign more Divine Vassal Contracts and use simulations to locate Alien Race gods’ Divine Kingdoms, accelerating expansion and resource gains.

Yang Fan exchanged unusable Alien Race buildings for military merit and questioned how the Han Military Command used the buildings it bought. Yang Da suspected the Command profited by reselling them through secret channels, possibly back to the Alien Race, and Yang Fan concluded that profit drove the trade behind the Frontline war.

• Yang Da explained that the Military Merit System bought Alien Race buildings at standardized prices, with S-Rank buildings worth the most, and noted that shops also bought them for Divinity Points.
• Yang Fan ordered Yang Da to exchange all unusable Alien Race buildings for military merit, and Yang Da completed the transaction through the Military Merit System.
• Yang Fan reviewed his military merit and worried that even more than three hundred million would buy only a handful of top-tier buildings like the [Heavenly Court].
• Yang Fan asked Yang Da why the Han Military Command created the Military Merit System and what it did with the Alien Race buildings it purchased.
• Yang Da suspected the Han Military Command used larger, secretive trading channels to resell the buildings, potentially to Alien Race powers, and profit from the trades.
• Yang Fan reasoned that the Military Merit System exploited gods' demand for top-tier buildings and concluded that profit ultimately drove the Frontline war.

Yang Fan recognized that powerful Lineages controlled the military merit system but chose to use it to obtain top-tier buildings. He bought six Heavenly Courts, which transformed his Divine Kingdom’s cultivation environment and gave his Cultivation Believers more room to live.

• Yang Fan concluded that the other great Lineages knew about and likely participated in the military merit system, but accepted its benefits and ordered Yang Da to buy valuable Alien Race S-Rank buildings.
• Yang Da warned that Dark Web auctions inflated prices, so Yang Fan limited monthly purchases to twenty trillion divinity points to avoid drawing too much attention.
• Yang Fan used the military merit system to buy six S-Rank Heavenly Court buildings for fifty million military merit each.
• Yang Fan loaded all six Heavenly Courts into his Divine Kingdom, where they joined the two existing Heavenly Courts and improved the overall environment twofold.
• The Cultivation Believers sensed the new Heavenly Courts and celebrated the sacred cultivation grounds Yang Fan had granted them.

Yang Fan’s six new Heavenly Courts filled with migrating cultivation believers, while Han Jue learned that Yang Fan had independently conquered an Alien Race First-Order God. Han Jue was left stunned by the revelation and questioned how Yang Fan had managed it.

• Cultivation believers migrated into the six new Heavenly Courts, while Yang Yi arranged transport for those unable to fly; the believers thanked Yang Fan for his blessings.
• Han Jue reviewed cultivation development materials and frontline records when an Artificial Lifeform alerted him to an orange alert about Yang Fan.
• Han Jue examined Yang Fan’s records, including his sales of Alien Race buildings, his six Heavenly Court acquisitions, and his submission of an Alien Race God's Divine Kingdom Core.
• Han Jue recognized Yang Fan as the graduate he had encountered in Primordial City and recalled that Yang Fan had conquered the Vajra King Monkey Divine Kingdom.
• Han Jue realized Yang Fan had recently become a god and apparently conquered an Alien Race First-Order God alone, leaving him shocked and questioning how Yang Fan had done it.

Han Jue decided to cultivate a connection with Yang Fan and ordered an investigation into his public background. Yang Fan absorbed the Angel Race god’s Divine Kingdom Core, expanding his own Divine Kingdom to 10.8 billion square kilometers.

• Han Jue recognized Yang Fan’s potential and ordered the artificial lifeform to investigate his residence and public activities on the Frontline.
• Yang Fan absorbed the Angel Race god’s Divine Kingdom Core, transforming his body, soul, and perception of the laws.
• Yang Fan’s Divine Kingdom drew in and merged land from the collapsing Angel Race Divine Kingdom as its environment began adapting to his own.
• Yang Fan checked his results and found that his Divine Kingdom had reached 10.8 billion square kilometers, an increase of nearly 800 million.

Yang Fan absorbed the Divine Kingdom Cores of demigods from the academies’ Foreign-Race Divine Kingdom Districts, expanding his Divine Kingdom and gaining many talents but no S-rank talent. He decided against sending Niu Tou and Ma Mian into level-three zones for now, then began fusing the talents he had collected.

• Yang Fan absorbed the demigods’ Divine Kingdom Cores, adding their lands to his Divine Kingdom and analyzing their talent origins.
• Yang Fan gained many Rank A and lower-ranked talents but no S-rank talent, since the cores needed for one had to come from a god or demigod with an SS-rank talent.
• Yang Fan considered having Niu Tou and Ma Mian challenge level-three-zone demigods, but rejected the plan because it risked exposing him and his goals.
• Yang Fan concluded the Yang Group was not yet powerful enough to recruit human prodigies and decided to wait for it to grow.
• Yang Fan activated Origin Evolution to fuse the Divine Kingdom talents, causing the laws of his Divine Kingdom to become more complete and improving his believers’ cultivation efficiency.

Yang Fan reviewed his expanded Divine Kingdom and its immense resource production, while the Yang Group’s sales channels neared capacity. With most resources reserved for future wars and believers’ advancement, the Divine Kingdom’s own civilization continued to grow.

• Yang Fan inspected his Divine Kingdom after his talents merged, noting their upgrades and the growing numbers of S-rank buildings and resource nests.
• Earthcore Spirit Marrow Source Nests spread across nearly one-tenth of the Divine Kingdom Core, helping raise resource production to a thousandfold scale.
• Yang Yi stored most of the Divine Kingdom’s output as strategic reserves, while Yang Fan limited sales of earthcore spirit marrow and enlightenment tea leaves to avoid disrupting the market or drawing attention.
• Ma Yu reported that the Yang Group’s sales channels were nearing their limits, and Yang Fan told him to decide how to handle sales.
• Yang Da used high-end resources to reward believers for cultivation, breakthroughs, and other contributions, while introducing a calendar and supporting the Divine Kingdom’s growing festivals.
