• Ma Huainan acted concerned outside Sima Yurou's room, then privately resented her and the Sima Family's influence.
• Sima Yurou read messages confirming that no one could stop Gu Le from removing her from the board and wondered why Gu Le had called the meeting specifically to target her.

After Gu Le removed Sima Yurou from All-Spirit Biopharmaceutical’s board, Sima Yurou and her brother suspected Ma Huainan had provoked Gu Le through his conflict with Yang Fan. Half a month later, Yang Fan’s Zombie Kingdom had strengthened and prepared for war, but a visitor interrupted Yang Da’s report.

• Sima Yurou vented to Sima Zhao about losing her board seat, and he told her to consider whether she had offended someone close to Gu Le.
• Sima Yurou recalled Ma Huainan’s bad blood with Yang Fan, so Sima Zhao ordered an investigation into Ma Huainan through the Sima Family’s internal channels.

• Yang Da reported on the Zombie Kingdom’s Corpse Cores and war supplies as Yang Fan prepared for war, but someone knocked on the door.

Lu Wan gave Yang Fan detailed information on Ma Huainan and Sima Yurou and took charge of deducing Ma Huainan’s Divine Kingdom Coordinates. At the Sima Family’s villa, Sima Yurou punished Ma Huainan for investigating Yang Fan, leaving him kneeling and resentful.

• Lu Wan presented Yang Fan with extensive records about Ma Huainan, including Divine Kingdom Coordinates, and explained that her investigation had required careful effort.
• Lu Wan revealed that she had also investigated Sima Yurou and deliberately let her know, while using Lu Family legal channels to delay the case against her Tianyuan Star Domain investigation company.

• Sima Yurou ordered Ma Huainan to kneel for the rest of the day, and he clenched his fists in anger after she left.

Ma Huainan reflected on why he had tried to eliminate Yang Fan, then worried that Yang Fan would discover his Divine Kingdom Coordinates. Sima Zhao ordered Sima Yurou to make peace with Yang Fan and divorce Ma Huainan, and she reluctantly accepted that ending the marriage was the most rational choice.

• Ma Huainan recalled that he had resented Yang Fan and tried to strike first before Yang Fan could outpace him in developing his Divine Kingdom.
• Ma Huainan worried that Yang Fan would uncover his Divine Kingdom Coordinates and considered asking the Sima Family for help.
• Sima Zhao told Sima Yurou to apologize to Yang Fan with Ma Huainan, offer compensation, and sign a contract forbidding both sides from investigating each other's Divine Kingdom Coordinates.
• Sima Zhao instructed Sima Yurou to draft a divorce petition and reclaim Ma Huainan's shares, arguing that his actions had harmed her interests.
• Sima Yurou reluctantly agreed that she should end the marriage after weighing Ma Huainan's misconduct against his considerable talent.

Yang Fan and Lu Wan refused to meet Sima Yurou and Ma Huainan after their investigation into Divine Kingdom information turned them into enemies. Sima Yurou ended her marriage with Ma Huainan and demanded the return of his shares, leaving him to realize she had seen through his schemes all along.

• Lu Wan said she wanted to eliminate Ma Huainan as a threat, and Yang Fan ordered Robot to tell their visitors no one was home.

Meanwhile, Yang Fan spent heavily trying to deduce Ma Huainan and Sima Yurou’s Divine Kingdom Coordinates, then learned his forces had found a Black Armored Beetle Clan god’s coordinates and postponed that invasion until Ma Huainan was dealt with.

• Sima Yurou reported to Sima Zhao that Lu Wan refused to meet her, finalized the divorce, and planned to sue through her Investigation Company.

• Lu Wan told Yang Fan that the priority was finding Ma Huainan’s coordinates and a way to destroy his Divine Kingdom before the Sima Family’s support made the conflict much larger.

Yang Fan learned that Ma Huainan’s Divine Kingdom Coordinates had been successfully deduced and ordered preparations for an invasion, while continuing to investigate Sima Yurou’s coordinates for a future opportunity. The chapter ended with Ma Huainan facing a sharp decline in income and Divine Kingdom development after losing the Sima Family’s support and his company dividends.

• Lu Wan explained that deducing Divine Kingdom Coordinates could take years or even centuries, and Yang Fan learned that his artificial lifeforms had already found Ma Huainan’s coordinates.

• Ma Huainan’s Supreme Artificial Lifeform reported that his subsidies and company dividends had ended, leaving his Divine Kingdom developing at only twenty percent of its previous rate.

• Ma Huainan ordered low-yield assets sold and assigned a hundred million entry-tier believers to cultivate resources, determined to rise without a rich partner’s support.

• Yang Fan inspected the Eternal Corpse Mine and saw Ten-Thousand Corpse War Tombs filled with ordinary zombies, zombie generals, and zombie kings.
• The White Jiangshi believers continued condensing Corpse Cores as the number of zombie believers ready for war reached a hundred billion.

Yang Fan ordered Yang Shi to lead a careful invasion of Ma Huainan’s Divine Kingdom, aiming to destroy his forces and lower the Sima Family’s willingness to support him. As the zombie vanguard began to deploy, Ma Huainan failed to secure more funding from Qin Xue, who feared the consequences of doing business with him.

• Yang Shi reported that the Zombie Kingdom’s troops and supplies were ready, and Yang Fan ordered him to advance steadily while focusing on destroying Ma Huainan’s believers and Divine Kingdom.
• Yang Fan promised Yang Shi Mechanical Hearts for an upgrade after the war, and Yang Shi began deploying the zombie vanguard through a spatial channel.
• Ma Huainan asked Qin Xue to increase his loan limit and offered a War God Codex as collateral.
• Qin Xue refused to lend Ma Huainan more Divinity Points, explaining that his risk rating had risen and that her company’s Gu Family shareholders made helping him dangerous.

Ma Huainan borrowed two War God Codices from Qin Xue and directed his Divine Kingdom to invest the funds in development, dismissing the invading zombies as an easy threat. Meanwhile, Yang Shi began a slow campaign to infect and ruin Ma Huainan’s Divine Kingdom rather than advance quickly.

• Ma Huainan signed contracts with Qin Xue for two War God Codices at 40% annual interest, then declined her offer to relax.
• After returning to his Divine Kingdom, Ma Huainan mistook Yang Fan’s Zombie Followers for an ordinary Corpse-Cultivating god’s believers and ordered fifty million Martial Disciple realm believers to destroy them.
• Ma Huainan directed his artificial lifeform to spend the loan on Spirit Plant Seeds, cultivation and planting training, and short-term investments, while refusing to reserve funds for war.
• Ma Huainan decided to visit the Frontline Trading District to save resources and left his Divine Kingdom.
• Yang Shi received war supplies at the outskirts and ordered his forces to advance slowly, using Corpse Cores to infect resources and damage Ma Huainan’s production systems.

Yang Fan’s forces began contaminating Ma Huainan’s resource fields to weaken his Divine Kingdom over time, while Yang Fan prepared hidden reinforcements and supplies. He left the war’s early stages to Yang Da and Yang Shi and waited for Ma Huainan to fall into a hopeless predicament.

• Yang Shi One ordered the Zombie Kings to carry the Ten-Thousand Corpse War Tombs toward the Divine Kingdom Core while infecting Ma Huainan’s resource areas with zombies carrying Corpse Cores.
• Yang Fan watched the invasion through his believers and mocked Ma Huainan for cultivating low-grade resources across his Divine Kingdom.
• Yang Da warned that Ma Huainan might have hidden defenses and proposed sending a hundred Flesh Calamity Broodmothers.
• Yang Fan instead ordered an F3500 Fighter and a Patrol Robot to deliver the war buildings to Yang Shi, who was to use them only in a critical moment.
• Yang Fan told Yang Da to keep buying expendable war resources from the shops in Frontline and conceal Yang Fan’s involvement from the Sima Family.
• Yang Fan returned his consciousness to reality and relaxed while Yang Da and Yang Shi managed the war.

Ma Huainan returned to his Divine Kingdom and discovered that corpse poison had ruined his resource zones and converted his fifty million followers into zombies. After reviewing the battle, he learned his opponent had deployed nearly ten thousand Rank A Ten-Thousand Corpse War Tombs and realized he had badly underestimated them.

• Ma Huainan returned from the trading district, proud that haggling had saved him tens of millions of Faith Points.
• Ma Huainan found his Spirit Fields, medicinal gardens, and Animal Husbandry farms contaminated by corpse poison, with Spirit Plants withered and Demon Beasts mutating.
• Ma Huainan demanded an explanation, and the Artificial Lifeform showed him how the zombie army trapped and transformed all fifty million Martial Disciple followers.
• The Artificial Lifeform identified the enemy's structures as Rank A Ten-Thousand Corpse War Tombs and explained that it had learned this only after querying the Federation's Supreme Artificial Lifeform.
• Ma Huainan realized the enemy had invested in nearly ten thousand Rank A War Structures and suspected his opponent was a powerful, long-established god.

Ma Huainan prepared a billion-believer army and rented protective equipment to counter Yang Fan’s advancing zombies. Yang Fan watched the enemy forces assemble and learned their suits were obsolete, while Yang Da judged the zombies could overwhelm them.

• Ma Huainan ordered his army reorganized, assembled one billion believers, and brought out both S-Rank Immortal War-Spirit Steles.
• Ma Huainan rented Biochemical Protective Suits and Gas Masks after deciding not to buy the expensive equipment.
• Yang Fan checked the battlefield footage and saw Ma Huainan’s believers wearing protective suits and transparent head domes.
• Yang Da identified the suits as obsolete first-generation Azure Biochemical Defense Suits designed by Mo Yuan.
• Yang Da estimated that Ma Huainan had committed one-tenth of his Divine Kingdom’s fighting strength and said the zombie army could defeat the believers.

Yang Fan continued his concealed invasion of Ma Huainan’s Divine Kingdom, where Ma Huainan summoned his billion followers for battle. Yang Shi deployed a vast zombie formation equipped with intelligent weapons, and the first clash revealed the enemy posed almost no threat to their defenses.

• Yang Fan decided to keep hiding his identity and let the invasion wear Ma Huainan down over time.
• Ma Huainan challenged the unseen invader, then rallied his followers and gathered their blood essence into an ancient Wild Beast phantom.
• Yang Shi deployed ten million Zombie Generals and one million Zombie Kings in the Corpse Tide Frenzy Formation, ordering his fighters to take Corpse Cores before battle.
• Ma Huainan and his Artificial Lifeform recognized that the zombies carried Third-Tier and Fourth-Tier Intelligent Weapons, and Ma Huainan ordered his army to attack.
• Yang Shi directed the intelligent weapons to raise Energy Shields and collect battle data as Ma Huainan’s vanguard struck; the systems assessed the attack as only 0.5% of the shields’ defensive limit.

Yang Fan worried that equipping his zombie army with intelligent weapons would expose his identity, but Yang Da explained that the weapons could not be traced by appearance alone. As the zombies overwhelmed Ma Huainan’s forces with suppressive fire, Ma Huainan questioned whether Yang Fan was following the Corpse Cultivation path or the mechanical path.

• Yang Da assured Yang Fan that the intelligent weapons would not reveal his identity because the Federation Marketplace sold many similar models.
• Yang Fan ordered Yang Shi to slow the attack and let Ma Huainan believe he still had a chance, so Ma Huainan would not disclose his Divine Kingdom’s coordinates to the Sima Family.
• On the Divine Kingdom Battlefield, the zombie army’s intelligent weapons battered Ma Huainan’s followers and shattered their blood-energy defensive barrier.
• The energy blasts devastated Ma Huainan’s army, killing and injuring followers and plunging the battlefield into chaos.
• Ma Huainan watched the attack in shock and wondered whether Yang Fan was pursuing Corpse Cultivation or the mechanical path.

Yang Fan ordered his forces to conserve their weapons and turn the battle into a prolonged war of attrition against Ma Huainan’s believers. As the zombie army suffered heavy losses and spread corpse poison across the battlefield, Ma Huainan mistook the strategy for weakness and vowed revenge.

• Yang Shi ordered the Zombie Followers to stop large-scale intelligent weapon attacks and sent the White Jiangshi to lead fifty million ordinary zombies in the Corpse Tide Frenzy Formation.
• Ma Huainan took the pause in cannon fire as a sign that the weapons had run out of energy and ordered his believers to counterattack.
• Yang Fan directed Yang Da to coordinate with Yang Shi and use the growing corpse poison and corrosive acid to weaken the enemy while consuming Ma Huainan’s billion believers.
• The armies clashed in close combat, where Ma Huainan’s War God Physique believers inflicted heavy losses on the zombies, and more ordinary zombies joined the frontline as expendable troops.
• As corpse miasma poisoned the battlefield, Ma Huainan regained his confidence and threatened to make Yang Fan repay his Divine Kingdom’s losses a thousandfold.

Yang Fan’s forces used acid rain, corpse poison, and swarms of zombies to annihilate Ma Huainan’s billion-strong army after a month of fighting. Yang Fan ordered reinforcements and continued the campaign, then refused Sima Yurou’s invitation to meet in person.

• Ma Huainan ordered his believers to endure the acid rain and charge the Zombie Army rather than retreat, while the Ten-Thousand Corpse War Tombs encircled his forces.
• Yang Shi used walls of ordinary zombies to slow Ma Huainan’s army as corpse poison infected and weakened the believers, turning some into zombies.
• A month later, Ma Huainan’s billion believers were annihilated, and he vowed to return after preparing to destroy Yang Fan’s forces and find his Divine Kingdom coordinates.
• Yang Fan ordered ten billion zombie believers sent as reinforcements and told Yang Da to have Yang Shi continue destroying Ma Huainan’s Divine Kingdom environment.
• Lu Wan told Yang Fan that Sima Yurou had invited them to a meal to apologize, but Yang Fan refused because his forces were still searching for her Divine Kingdom coordinates.

Ma Huainan paid compensation for defective weapons, suspended his investments, and prepared to counter the Zombie Army as he wondered whether Yang Fan was behind the attack. Meanwhile, Yang Fan's forces advanced into Ma Huainan's agricultural heartland, where he ordered the farms and equipment destroyed.

• Ma Huainan argued with an intelligent-weapons supplier over the contract and reluctantly agreed to pay compensation for equipment ruined by acid rain.
• After learning the Zombie Army had spread corpse poison and damaged his investment zones, Ma Huainan halted investment and ordered urgent purchases of protective equipment and war resources.
• Ma Huainan suspected Yang Fan might be supporting the Corpse Cultivation deity attacking him, but doubted that Yang Fan could have found his Divine Kingdom so quickly.
• Over the following days, Ma Huainan's believers harassed Yang Fan's forces and fought while retreating, slowing the Zombie Army and consuming some of Yang Fan's resources.
• On the seventh day, Yang Fan's Zombie Army reached the central region and found extensive Spirit Fields and agricultural facilities.
• Yang Fan dismissed the agricultural assets and ordered them destroyed.

Yang Fan’s zombie army pushed through Ma Huainan’s Divine Kingdom, destroying its investments before Ma Huainan committed his fifty-billion-strong army to a decisive battle. Yang Fan ordered Yang Shi to devour the enemy army and prepared reinforcements for the confrontation he expected afterward.

• Yang Fan buried Corpse Cores in Ma Huainan’s Spirit Fields and used ten billion zombie followers to spread the destruction through the Divine Kingdom’s scattered investments.
• On the ninth day in the Real World, Yang Fan’s army reached the outskirts of Ma Huainan’s Divine Kingdom Core and found defensive buildings that Yang Fan judged ineffective.
• On the tenth day, Ma Huainan led fifty billion followers, including several thousand Martial Kings, into an open battlefield fortified with formations, remaining defenses, and advanced protective armor.
• Yang Da explained Ma Huainan’s battlefield choice and identified the enemy armor; Yang Fan ordered Yang Shi to devour the entire army and directed reinforcements from the Eternal Corpse Mine to the Frontline.
• Ma Huainan accused the hidden god behind the zombies of destroying his Divine Kingdom’s assets, asking why his opponent had chosen destruction instead of taking the four trillion Divinity Points’ worth of investments.
