Chapter Summaries

Key plot points

• The Level 11 Wild Ginseng raises the human Universe Masters’ divine bodies to 100 million kilometers. Since the human race is now secure, they choose to postpone becoming True Gods and wait for Xiao Yang to seek even better Wild Ginseng.
• Xiao Yang warns that this could take countless eras: he intends to reach a gene level of 100,000 times before advancing to True God. He then activates the inheritance assessment, which he cannot yet modify.
• Chaos City Lord passes the assessment with his 60,000-times gene level and becomes the next Duan Donghe inheritor. He receives access to the core inheritance but leaves its core permissions with Xiao Yang, then eagerly studies its powerful secret arts.
• Xiao Yang repeats the process for the other human Universe Masters. Giant Axe is the sole exception, as he has not yet met the requirements; Xiao Yang tells him to work toward an Eleventh Order Secret Technique and practice the Rhino Emperor Game.
• While human experts focus on studying their new inheritances, the wider Cosmic Sea continues searching the Three Great Forbidden Lands. The human race leaves its loyal subordinate races alone but has already eliminated those that betrayed it.
• After several thousand years of cultivation, Xiao Yang receives word that Luo Feng has returned. He meets him in the Virtual Universe, apparently after Luo Feng has claimed the Star Tower.

• Chaos City Lord is formally entrusted with the inheritance and is amazed by the ancient civilization’s secret arts, especially techniques involving rebirth and burning divine power.

• Luo Feng is alarmed by how few Human and alien experts remain inside the Star Tower and fears the Human Race is losing its war.
• Xiao Yang explains that events have taken a radically different turn: the Human Race now dominates the Primordial Universe and the Cosmic Sea. Luo Feng and even Babata are stunned by the records confirming it.
• Xiao Yang updates Luo Feng’s access, then discusses his future training. He explains the Divine Power and Law paths to becoming a Strongest Being and shows him information on available special life forms.
• Luo Feng chooses to pursue the Divine Power Path independently, declining Xiao Yang’s Wild Ginseng for now. After seeing the Nether Sea Clone’s enormous twelve-light-year divine body, he chooses it for his Third Clone.

• Xiao Yang acts as a reassuring friend and mentor, explaining the altered state of the universe and guiding Luo Feng’s choices. He also secretly records Luo Feng’s stunned reaction for future teasing.

• Independence and mentorship: Xiao Yang offers resources and advice, but Luo Feng chooses to test himself without assistance.
• Adaptation and ambition: The upheaval in the universe prompts Luo Feng to plan his next stage of cultivation.

Key plot points and events

• Luo Feng tells Xiao Yang he wants a Nether Sea Clone for its enormous divine body and powerful Creation ability. Xiao Yang says the Human Race Treasury already holds Nether Sea water and Luo Feng can request it, but Luo Feng first chooses to visit the Ancestor God Religion himself.
• Xiao Yang offers to help Luo Feng obtain a Gold-Space Beast God Inheritance Token. He also reveals that Luo Feng’s former teacher, King Zhen Yan, has become Venerable Zhen Yan. Luo Feng is delighted by the news.
• Over tens of thousands of years, the Human Race consolidates its conquered territories, its population and number of geniuses surge, and it gains several Universe Masters and many more Venerables.
• The Primal Star is about to open. With rival powers weakened or in hiding, the Human Race is expected to dominate the event.
• At the Many Treasures Temple, the Chaos City Lord sees the opening as a chance to acquire more treasures. Despite Xiao Yang’s deposited stock of standardized Supreme Ultimate Treasure sets, the Human Race lacks enough lower-grade Ultimate Treasures and Supreme Treasures for its rapidly growing ranks.

Character developments

• Luo Feng emerges from a long slumber and begins planning his next clone and Beast God cultivation. His concern for his teacher shows how strongly he values their bond.
• Xiao Yang supports Luo Feng’s choices and has used his resources to help the Human Race, including donating Nether Sea water for future clone users.

• Luo Feng learns of Zhen Yan’s breakthrough through Xiao Yang and responds with sincere happiness.
• The Chaos City Lord discusses the Human Race’s shortage of equipment, underscoring how its leaders are planning to support their growing forces.

Significant themes

• Growth and renewal: The Human Race’s expanding population drives a sharp rise in geniuses and powerful warriors.
• Shared resources and collective strength: Xiao Yang’s donations and the Treasury’s relaxed access policies support the race’s future.
• Opportunity amid dominance: The Primal Star’s opening offers both a chance to gather treasures and a sign of the Human Race’s overwhelming position.
• The cost of rapid expansion: Even with vast resources and growing strength, the Human Race cannot yet equip all its powerhouses adequately.

Key plot points and events

• After the Human Race defeated its rival factions, many survivors escaped with their treasures, hiding in secret realms or fleeing into the Cosmic Sea.
• Xiao Yang recharged the newly collapsing Miniature Universes of several enemy leaders. Even though their origins had mostly drained away, each yielded Voucher Points worth tens of billions of Treasure Points. He realized the origin of an intact Miniature Universe could be vastly more valuable.
• The Human Race’s leaders planned how to distribute the newly appeared Primal Stars. With more than a million fighters at Top Universe Overlord strength but fewer than 10,081 Venerables, the stars could help address the Human Race’s shortage of high-level treasures.
• Xiao Yang largely ignored the allocation discussions, focusing instead on refining Secret Arts, studying the Source of Laws, and researching genetic maps.
• In the Farm Game’s laboratory, Raul used the Life Hunyuan Dao to create a beautiful eagle-like life-form. He could not give it a Gene Level above 100,000 times, though he said creatures with million-fold Gene Levels exist.
• Raul suggested that Xiao Yang’s work breeding a better Hundred-Flavors Pig might help unlock further progress. Xiao Yang decided to reach 100,000 times Gene Level and then pursue becoming a True God, trusting that the Farm Game could help him recover if he later reincarnated.
• After studying material from Raul’s creation, Xiao Yang’s true body began rebuilding its divine body.

Character developments and interactions

• Xiao Yang recognizes the extraordinary value of Miniature Universe origins and considers seeking stronger sources of value, including the universes of powerful beings or Cosmic Sand. He remains focused on personal cultivation and research rather than Human Race politics. Raul’s revelations broaden his sense of what may be possible, but Xiao Yang chooses a pragmatic path: advance first, then consider further breakthroughs.
• Raul demonstrates mastery of the Life Hunyuan Dao, revealing a level of power beyond a Hunyuan Lord. He is candid about the limits of his knowledge and points Xiao Yang toward genetic research and the Hundred-Flavors Pig as possible routes forward.
• Human Race leaders coordinate the Primal Star allocation, while Xiao Yang stays mostly detached from their discussions.

Significant themes

• The value of origins and resources: Miniature Universes are worth far more than Xiao Yang expected, especially when even a trace of their origin remains.
• Limits and the pursuit of understanding: Raul’s inability to create higher-Gene-Level life shows that creation depends on understanding what is being created.
• Ambition balanced with pragmatism: Xiao Yang hopes to reach higher levels but prioritizes becoming a True God before pursuing still greater Gene Levels.
• Growth through research and cultivation: The chapter ends with Xiao Yang’s body undergoing a profound transformation, signaling a new stage in his development.

Key plot points and events

• Xiao Yang makes hundreds of attempts to alter his genes, using his immense Divine Power to withstand repeated failures. After years of research into gene maps, he finally succeeds in raising his Gene Level to 60,021 times.
• The breakthrough makes his Divine Power denser, temporarily shrinking his divine body. His Nether Sea Avatar replenishes his power, restoring his body to full size.
• Xiao Yang credits Raul’s guidance for accelerating his research and continues modifying only the Avatars of his original body.
• Ten years later, the Primal Stars open. Treasures appear at an unprecedented rate: Ultimate Treasures emerge at least a hundred times more often than usual, and Supreme Treasures are commonplace.
• A Top-tier Domain Supreme Treasure, Sword Luo River, appears complete rather than in scattered parts as it did in the original timeline. Xiao Yang and the Human Race’s leaders are baffled by the change.
• The Chaos City Lord tells Xiao Yang that the Two-Faced Ancestral God has invited him to visit. The Ancestral God apparently does not know why, suggesting the invitation came from a power behind him.

Character developments

• Xiao Yang demonstrates patience and resolve through repeated experiments, then achieves his first self-directed increase in Gene Level. He is pleased but remains focused on further research.
• He recognizes how much he learned from Raul, whose expertise in gene maps proved valuable beyond the limits of the creatures he could create.

Character interactions

• Xiao Yang’s Nether Sea Avatar supports his original body by restoring its Divine Power after the breakthrough.
• Raul’s past mentorship shapes Xiao Yang’s success, though Raul is not present in the chapter’s events.
• The Chaos City Lord shares the mysterious invitation with Xiao Yang and the Human Race’s leaders. Their attention turns to the Primal Ancestor as they infer that a hidden power may be behind it.

Significant themes

• Persistence and discovery: Xiao Yang’s breakthrough comes through repeated failure, research, and disciplined experimentation.
• Consequences of change: The altered treasure patterns reveal that Xiao Yang’s actions have reshaped the Primordial Universe more profoundly than he expected.
• Hidden powers and uncertainty: The unexplained changes to the Primal Stars and the mysterious invitation point to forces operating beyond the characters’ understanding.

Key plot points and events

• The Chaos City Lord suspects that the Primordial Universe Will—not the Ancestor Gods—summoned Xiao Yang, possibly because of the recent appearance of many Ultimate Treasures on the Primal Stars.
• Xiao Yang travels to his palace on Purple Thorn Island using Flame Star Vine, a powerful plant life-form he is deliberately holding back from breaking through until he obtains better resources.
• The Two-Faced Ancestral God welcomes Xiao Yang and takes him to meet the Old and Young Ancestral Gods. They confirm that the Primordial Universe Will called him and that they do not know why.
• The Three Ancestor Gods escort Xiao Yang to a strange space, where the Primordial Universe Will communicates directly with him.
• The Will reveals two requests: it wants crops and biological materials from Xiao Yang’s Game World, and it wants Xiao Yang and the Human Race to help fight the World Beasts. It shares information about the beasts, their location near the Reincarnation Passage, and their ability to devour universes.
• Xiao Yang already knows much of this and asks what he will receive in return, recognizing an opportunity to negotiate.

Character developments and interactions

• Xiao Yang remains calm and direct. He understands why the Primordial Universe might need his help, but treats the meeting as a negotiation rather than accepting its request automatically.
• The Three Ancestor Gods show deference to the Primordial Universe Will and hospitality toward Xiao Yang, while admitting they are not responsible for his summons.
• The alien inheritors on Purple Thorn Island watch Xiao Yang with fear and resentment, since he spared them out of respect for the Ancestor God Religion.
• Flame Star Vine is revealed to have become a Universe Master, though Xiao Yang continues to delay its breakthrough.

Significant themes

• Power and obligation: Xiao Yang’s strength makes him essential to the defense of the Primordial Universe, but he expects compensation for taking on that responsibility.
• Cooperation and negotiation: Even the Primordial Universe must make its needs known, while Xiao Yang weighs what it offers in exchange.
• Life versus destruction: The Primordial Universe’s Life Origin Dao makes Raul’s specially created biological materials valuable, unlike World Beast materials tied to destructive power.
• Uneasy protection: Xiao Yang’s restraint toward the alien inheritors has spared them, but their fear and resentment remain.

Key plot points and events

• Xiao Yang negotiates directly with the Primordial Universe Will. He demands the release of the Primal Ancestor, but learns that this can happen only after he makes a major contribution by resolving the World Beast Crisis—and with the Supreme Rules’ permission.
• Xiao Yang also asks to bring others into the Origin Land to study the Life Origin Great Dao, and to leave a Divine Power Avatar there after his own Reincarnation.
• The Primordial Universe Will resists. Xiao Yang argues that he is one of the few beings capable of addressing the World Beast threat, while he can protect himself and his Miniature Universe by other means. The crisis, however, could erase the Primordial Universe Will permanently.
• The two reach an agreement: Xiao Yang will resolve the crisis, and the Primordial Universe Will will release the Primal Ancestor and grant him and his companions access to study the Life Origin Great Dao.
• At the Will’s request, Xiao Yang swears before the Supreme Rules that he will not take over the Primordial Universe or help anyone else do so. The oath binds his true body, clones, and avatars.
• Before Xiao Yang leaves, the Will asks for Raul’s crops and biological materials. It explains that these contain traces of many Great Daos and could help advance and evolve Hunyuan life.

Character developments

• Xiao Yang demonstrates confidence and strategic leverage, negotiating from the knowledge that the Primordial Universe needs his help more than he needs its protection. He accepts the binding oath without hesitation.
• The Primordial Universe Will is shown as powerful but limited: it cannot act against the Supreme Rules, and its intelligence is relatively undeveloped. Its desire for Raul’s creations reveals an instinctive drive to evolve.

Significant themes

• Power and constraint: Even the Primordial Universe Will is subject to the Supreme Rules, while Xiao Yang is constrained by the oath he takes.
• Mutual dependence and negotiation: Xiao Yang and the Will cooperate because each has something the other needs.
• Knowledge as opportunity: Access to the Life Origin Great Dao is a rare prize, and the crops’ hidden Dao traces may have evolutionary value.
• Survival and identity: The Will fears that a World Beast King could destroy its existence, not merely its current form.

Character interactions

• Xiao Yang confronts the Primordial Universe Will with calm, practical arguments, while the Will communicates in brief, halting messages.
• Their exchange shifts from disagreement over Xiao Yang’s conditions to a formal bargain sealed by an oath.
• The Three Ancestor Gods are expelled when Xiao Yang begins discussing matters with the Will, emphasizing the private and exceptional nature of the negotiation.

Plot points

• The Primordial Universe reveals that studying Raul’s creatures—created through the Life Origin Great Dao and Hunyuan Life Dao—could greatly advance its understanding of life and potentially help it rise beyond the God King level. Xiao Yang agrees to provide crops and biological materials in exchange for several benefits.
• The Primordial Universe accepts his demands: more varied resources, large payments in Universe Crystal, more Human Race talents, and additional training secret realms. Xiao Yang supplies crops from levels 0–12 and a portion of Raul’s materials, receiving an immense quantity of Universe Crystal and a Void True God-level Ultimate Treasure that will enable future contact.
• After Xiao Yang returns, the Three Ancestor Gods—having been ordered not to oppose him or the Human Race—treat him warmly and invite him to stay.
• In Farm Town, Xiao Yang asks Aili to make an Ultimate Treasure that can defend against attacks on the will, anticipating a visit to the World Beasts. Aili says he lacks the necessary rare materials and suggests that Xiao Yang instead strengthen his will, which seems close to a breakthrough.

Character developments and interactions

• Xiao Yang shows confidence in negotiating with the Primordial Universe and secures major advantages for himself and the Human Race. He also prepares to investigate the World Beasts, though he has not yet found a way to protect himself from will-based attacks.
• The Primordial Universe demonstrates how highly it values Xiao Yang’s help, readily granting his conditions and providing a direct means of future communication.
• The Three Ancestor Gods shift toward deference and friendliness after learning Xiao Yang has the Primordial Universe’s favor.
• Aili expresses mild jealousy that Xiao Yang often invites Stephen and the others to perform without him. Xiao Yang promises to invite Aili next time, improving Aili’s mood.

Significant themes

• Mutual exchange and leverage: Xiao Yang turns valuable knowledge and materials into resources and protections for himself and the Human Race.
• Power through knowledge: The Primordial Universe seeks to grow by studying life created through a Dao suited to its own nature.
• Shifting alliances: The Primordial Universe’s decision to favor Xiao Yang changes the Ancestor God Religion’s attitude toward him.
• Limits and preparation: Xiao Yang’s plans to face the World Beasts are tempered by the difficulty of obtaining high-level protective materials and the need to strengthen his own will.

Plot points and events

• Aili tells Xiao Yang that wild mushrooms—especially Jianshou Mushrooms—can strengthen his will alongside attending concerts.
• Xiao Yang reveals that he already eats Jianshou Mushrooms before concerts. Aili is astonished: they are extremely rare, and even Charlie has none.
• Xiao Yang explains that he has never sold his gathered mushrooms. He has accumulated an enormous supply over tens of thousands of years, including many level-eleven Jianshou Mushrooms.
• When Aili expresses envy, Xiao Yang gives her a World Ring full of mushrooms. She is stunned by the quantity and quality.
• Aili recommends that he take the mushrooms to Gordon, Farm Town’s renowned chef, whose cooking can greatly enhance their effects. Xiao Yang admits he has never heard of Gordon or visited his restaurant, and becomes interested in trying his food.

Character developments and interactions

• Xiao Yang is generous and matter-of-fact about his extraordinary mushroom stock, unaware that the fungi are valuable and rare to others. He is also curious once he learns cooking can make them more effective.
• Aili moves from giving advice to openly admiring—and envying—Xiao Yang’s resources. She then enthusiastically introduces him to Gordon and explains the value of expert cooking.
• Their friendly exchange shows Aili’s familiarity with Farm Town’s food scene and Xiao Yang’s tendency to stick to familiar places, especially Jack’s Tavern.

Significant themes

• Scarcity versus abundance: Items rare to the town’s experts are plentiful to Xiao Yang because of his long-term gathering.
• Hidden value and specialized knowledge: Xiao Yang has powerful resources but doesn’t know their full potential; Aili reveals that a chef can transform them into a stronger aid to willpower.
• Generosity and discovery: Xiao Yang readily shares his treasures, while Aili’s advice opens the way to a new experience.

Key plot points and events

• Aili explains that Jianshou Mushrooms can strengthen Xiao Yang’s soul-will more efficiently when expertly cooked. Ordinary use makes them create illusions that consume some of their nutrients; a skilled chef can redirect that energy into nourishment instead.
• She takes Xiao Yang to Gordon’s Heaven Restaurant, which is so popular that customers queue outside. Aili uses a back entrance and introduces Xiao Yang to Gordon, who has long wanted to meet the farmer whose crops improve his cooking.
• Gordon welcomes them into a private room and prepares a meal using Xiao Yang’s rare ingredients: level 11 Jianshou Mushrooms, level 12 produce, newly raised livestock, and other wild plants and fruits.
• When the dishes are uncovered, their aroma is so powerful that Xiao Yang—despite being a Universe Master unused to hunger—feels ravenous. Gordon urges him to eat, while Aili has already begun eagerly helping herself.

Character developments and interactions

• Xiao Yang is curious about Gordon’s reputation and excited to see what his cooking can do. He readily shares his abundant ingredients, treating the meal as a chance to experience their full value.
• Aili acts as guide and intermediary: she confidently brings Xiao Yang through the restaurant’s back entrance, pushes Gordon to accommodate them, and encourages Xiao Yang to provide ingredients.
• Gordon is revealed as an enthusiastic, highly demanding chef who takes pride in his restaurant and deeply appreciates Xiao Yang’s crops. His excitement over the ingredients shows how important they are to his work.

Significant themes

• Skill transforms resources: Cooking can change how an ingredient’s energy works, making it far more effective than consuming it unprepared.
• Mutual benefit and cooperation: Xiao Yang’s farming supports Gordon’s cuisine, while Gordon’s expertise can enhance the benefits Xiao Yang receives.
• Mastery as a path: The chapter highlights cooking as a serious Great Dao, capable of producing extraordinary effects—not merely good food.

Plot and events

• Xiao Yang samples Gordon’s dishes made from Hundred-Flavors Pig and is astonished by their flavor and texture. He and Aili eat every dish on the table, including pork belly, intestines, tail, trotters, and other cuts.
• Aili says Gordon’s cooking is even better than the day before. Gordon explains that his skill has not changed—the exceptional ingredients Xiao Yang supplied make the difference.
• Eager to cook with more such ingredients, Gordon asks Xiao Yang to supply them. They agree that Xiao Yang will provide ingredients and Gordon will visit daily to cook for him. Aili is pleased that she may also get to enjoy the food at Heaven Restaurant.
• After the meal, Xiao Yang feels powerful temporary benefits: heightened Law Affinity, improved comprehension, a relaxed soul, and rapidly growing willpower. He attributes the strongest effect to the Jianshou Mushrooms Gordon cooked and estimates that regular meals could help him reach Void True God-level willpower within ten thousand years.
• Back at his Farm, Xiao Yang accelerates the growth of a wider variety of Crops so Gordon can experiment with them. He discovers that cooking can improve even ingredients whose special effects cannot be enhanced, and that dishes made from level 12 Crops can directly restore Minor Universe Origin.

Character developments and interactions

• Xiao Yang is delighted by Gordon’s cooking, recognizes its value beyond taste, and readily establishes a daily cooking arrangement. He then expands his Crop production to explore the ingredients’ potential.
• Gordon shows pride in his craft and enthusiasm for rare ingredients, but credits their quality rather than any recent improvement in his own skill. He eagerly accepts Xiao Yang’s condition and offers to cook regularly.
• Aili shares the feast and recognizes the improvement in Gordon’s food. She envies Xiao Yang’s access to daily meals but is invited to join future gatherings.

Significant themes

• Ingredients and craftsmanship: Exceptional ingredients allow a skilled cook to bring out flavors beyond what ordinary ingredients can offer.
• Food as cultivation: Cooking provides substantial spiritual and physical benefits, potentially accelerating Xiao Yang’s growth.
• Mutual benefit: Xiao Yang’s abundant resources and Gordon’s culinary skill create a partnership that benefits them both—and may benefit Aili as well.

Plot points and events

• Gordon’s dishes supply rare Minor Universe-origin resources and, more immediately, powerful temporary cultivation boosts. Xiao Yang plans to stockpile such resources for the Miniature Universe he expects to create after a future breakthrough.
• Over several thousand years of eating Gordon’s food, Xiao Yang makes rapid progress: he masters numerous fusion laws, creates an eighth-tier secret art, and raises his gene level to 70,000 times. His will advances especially quickly, approaching the Void True God level.
• Xiao Yang eats a large serving of level-11 Jianshou Mushrooms, then attends a concert with Aili. Stephen’s specially chosen symphonies help the mushrooms’ energy merge with Xiao Yang’s will, allowing him to break through to the Void True God level of will.
• After the concert, Xiao Yang thanks Stephen and Aili and hosts a celebratory feast for them and the orchestra.
• Xiao Yang then appears in the Cosmic Sea near the Tilted Peak Realm. With his will newly advanced, he opens a Star Gate and heads deeper into the realm to investigate the Dim Land.

Character developments and interactions

• Xiao Yang demonstrates extraordinary growth and resourcefulness, turning Gordon’s cooking, Stephen’s music, and his own accumulated abilities into a successful breakthrough. He is grateful to those who helped him.
• Aili encourages Xiao Yang to enter the concert, shares in his celebration, and points out that his own resources and ability made the breakthrough possible.
• Stephen supports Xiao Yang with music tailored to the breakthrough and modestly credits Xiao Yang’s own effort.
• Gordon’s cooking remains central to Xiao Yang’s advancement, though Gordon does not appear directly in the breakthrough scene.

Significant themes

• Preparation and resourcefulness: Rare food, music, and stored resources combine with Xiao Yang’s effort to enable progress.
• Willpower and cultivation: Xiao Yang’s greatest achievement is a breakthrough in will, despite his cultivation level being much lower.
• Cooperation and gratitude: Others provide crucial help, while Xiao Yang recognizes their contributions and celebrates with them.

Plot points and events

• Although the Human Race dominates the Cosmic Sea after the battle over the Duan Donghe Inheritance, the other factions do not form a new alliance: they distrust one another and have suffered severe losses.
• Xiao Yang’s people leave Star Gate Vine Clone tokens throughout the Three Great Forbidden Lands so he can quickly come to their aid. Following those tokens into Tilted Peak Realm, Xiao Yang reaches the Dim Land.
• His domain touches the Snow Sand Sea, a Peak Domain-type Supreme Treasure wielded by Haolei Star Lord. Recognizing him as a World Beast slave, Xiao Yang attacks immediately.
• Xiao Yang’s Sea of Fire overwhelms Haolei’s domain and traps him. Haolei protests that he has done nothing wrong, but Xiao Yang accuses him of betraying every Cosmic Sea faction.
• Xiao Yang attacks with a spear empowered by the Sea of Fire and spacetime control. Haolei’s lightning strikes fail to slow it, so he unleashes black energy—World Beast Power—which even Xiao Yang’s body instinctively fears.

Character developments

• Xiao Yang is confident and decisive, using his overwhelming power to confront Haolei without hesitation. He already knows Haolei’s allegiance and refuses to entertain his denials.
• Haolei Star Lord shifts from alarm and attempted escape to pleading, then desperate resistance. When his ordinary attacks fail, he resorts to the dangerous World Beast Power.

Character interactions

• Haolei tries to bargain with Xiao Yang and denies betraying anyone; Xiao Yang rejects his excuses and attacks.
• Haolei secretly calls on his World Beast masters, but they cannot reach him quickly, while the other enslaved Strongest Beings are fleeing.

Significant themes

• Distrust and fractured alliances: The Cosmic Sea factions remain divided because none trusts the others, even in the face of Human Race dominance.
• Power and vulnerability: Xiao Yang’s superior domain and attack leave Haolei nearly helpless, but World Beast Power introduces a threat that even Xiao Yang instinctively fears.
• Betrayal and accountability: Haolei’s alleged treachery underlies Xiao Yang’s decision to kill him, while Haolei’s denials highlight the gap between self-preservation and responsibility.

Plot points and events

• Haolei Star Lord unleashes World Beast Power, which spreads instantly and cancels out Xiao Yang’s spear attack. It also rapidly drains the Divine Power sustaining Xiao Yang’s armor and begins consuming his Divine Body.
• Xiao Yang deliberately withstands the attack to test it. Though the power destroys an immense amount of Divine Power, his Star Gate Vine Avatar’s enormous reserves let him recover almost immediately. Haolei, who can store only a small amount of World Beast Power, is left defenseless.
• Xiao Yang overwhelms Haolei with spear strikes, shattering his True God Heart and killing him. He collects Haolei’s treasures and reflects on how dangerous World Beast Power is, especially for anyone without sufficient Divine Power or protective palace- and soul-type treasures.
• In the Dim Land, the World Beasts learn of Haolei’s death. They identify Xiao Yang as the “Many-Treasure Lord” and vow to take revenge, enslave him, and eventually devour the Primordial Universe.

Character developments and interactions

• Xiao Yang shifts from testing World Beast Power to decisively exploiting Haolei’s lack of reserves. His confidence is grounded in the vast Divine Power of his avatar, not immunity to the threat.
• Haolei Star Lord begins certain that Xiao Yang will die and eager to claim his treasures. His certainty collapses when Xiao Yang survives; once his borrowed World Beast Power is spent, he is easily defeated.
• The World Beasts respond to Haolei’s death with fury and a collective threat against Xiao Yang and the Primordial Universe.

Significant themes

• Power has limits: World Beast Power can annihilate ordinary Divine Power at terrifying speed, but Xiao Yang’s extraordinary reserves let him endure it.
• Preparation and protection: The scene underscores the importance of palace- and soul-type Supreme Ultimate Treasures when facing World Beasts.
• Revenge and escalating conflict: Haolei’s death turns a personal victory into a looming confrontation between Xiao Yang and the World Beasts.

Chapter Summary: “Dim Land”

Key Plot Points and Events

• The World Beasts explain that although the Haolei Star Lord and his companions were enslaved by only one World Beast, all World Beasts effectively controlled them. World Beasts share communication and awareness, so they learned that Xiao Yang had killed their slave.
• The World Beasts remember Xiao Yang as a future target but do not immediately pursue him. Their primary goal remains devouring one another and becoming the World Beast King; their instincts discourage them from leaving the Dim Land before then.
• Xiao Yang enters the Dim Land, a region filled with oppressive darkness and thick black mist. The environment distorts his sense of direction, making it impossible to distinguish up, down, or the path back without relying on his clones, Avatars, and Star Gate Vine tokens.
• Xiao Yang tests the Dim Land’s restrictions. He discovers that he can return to the Game World and open Star Gates, but ordinary Teleportation is impossible. He places Star Gate Vine tokens at several locations so he can navigate and escape if necessary.
• At the seventh Star Gate, Xiao Yang detects an ugly creature that he immediately recognizes as a World Beast. The creature introduces himself as Nelia and identifies Xiao Yang as the one who killed Haolei.
• Nelia attacks with a powerful soul technique, expecting to kill Xiao Yang easily and consume his body. However, Xiao Yang’s Bronze Ancient Bell destroys the attack, revealing that Xiao Yang possesses an exceptionally strong Soul Will and a soul-type Supreme Ultimate Treasure.
• Nelia is shocked but chooses to continue fighting, confident in the superiority of his World Beast Power.
• Nelia charges Xiao Yang, but Xiao Yang blocks the attack with a defensive Ultimate Treasure and counters with his flaming Spear World technique. Nelia splits into dozens of Avatars to escape. Several are destroyed by Xiao Yang’s attack, while the remaining Avatars flee into the black mist.

Character Development

• Xiao Yang: Demonstrates caution and preparation by testing the Dim Land’s laws before confronting danger. He remains calm despite the disorienting environment and proves that his strength—including his Soul Will, defensive treasures, and offensive power—is far greater than Nelia expected.
• Nelia: Initially arrogant and predatory, viewing Xiao Yang as a “lowly” creature and potential food. His confidence is shaken when Xiao Yang resists his soul attack and launches a devastating counterattack. Although surprised, he remains aggressive rather than retreating immediately.
• The World Beasts: Their shared consciousness and instinctive ambition are emphasized. They are angered by Xiao Yang but prioritize the emergence of the World Beast King above revenge.

Significant Themes

• Collective identity and shared power: The World Beasts function almost as a single species-wide entity, sharing information and authority over enslaved beings.
• Survival and hierarchy: Their behavior is governed by the struggle to become the World Beast King, showing how ambition and instinct shape their choices.
• Preparation versus arrogance: Xiao Yang carefully investigates the Dim Land and prepares escape routes, while Nelia underestimates him and attacks with excessive confidence.
• The unknown and disorientation: The Dim Land’s darkness symbolizes a hostile realm governed by unfamiliar rules, testing Xiao Yang’s ability to remain composed and adaptable.
• Strength beyond appearances: Though Nelia considers Xiao Yang an insignificant Cosmic Sea creature, Xiao Yang’s willpower and treasures allow him to withstand an attack from a World Beast and damage it severely.

Character Interactions

• The World Beasts collectively react to Xiao Yang’s killing of Haolei, marking him as a future enemy.
• Nelia confronts Xiao Yang directly, taunting him over Haolei’s death and declaring that becoming food for a World Beast is an honor.
• Xiao Yang’s resistance to Nelia’s soul attack reverses the power dynamic, replacing Nelia’s confidence with shock and caution.
• Their brief battle ends with Xiao Yang destroying several of Nelia’s Avatars, forcing the World Beast to scatter and flee.

Key plot points and events

• Nelia and the other World Beasts want to become the World Beast King, but fear death; Nelia’s many avatars scatter when Xiao Yang attacks.
• Xiao Yang traps the avatars between a vast Sea of Fire and a mountain-range sealing treasure. Unable to escape, Nelia broadcasts a warning about Xiao Yang’s strength and asks the other World Beasts to avenge him.
• Nelia destroys several avatars to weaken the seal, briefly opening a path through the flames. Xiao Yang had anticipated this and positioned another set of treasures—and another avatar—beyond the first barrier. His spear destroys the escaping avatar, and the seal closes again.
• Xiao Yang kills more avatars, collecting pieces and blood for his Game World. Nelia then self-destructs, damaging some of Xiao Yang’s nearby avatars but leaving no body behind.
• Xiao Yang withdraws from the Dim Land, having obtained the material he came for. He decides that hunting all the World Beasts would be impractical and could hasten their evolution.
• Nelia’s death enrages the World Beasts. They threaten humanity and order their remaining slaves in the Cosmic Sea to investigate Xiao Yang.

Character developments

• Xiao Yang demonstrates careful preparation, overwhelming power, and growing awareness of the danger World Beasts pose. He recognizes that his first encounter was not perfectly executed, but remains confident he can defeat lower-order beasts.
• Nelia shifts from confidence to regret and desperation. Facing imminent defeat, he warns his kind, sacrifices avatars to escape, and finally chooses self-destruction rather than be killed outright.

Significant themes

• Ambition versus survival: World Beasts will use any means to pursue kingship, yet fear death because it would end that ambition.
• Preparation and strategy: Xiao Yang’s layered defenses and backup position defeat Nelia’s attempted escape.
• The cost of escalation: Xiao Yang avoids a broad campaign, aware that killing many World Beasts could accelerate their evolution and make the threat worse.

Chapter summary: “Studying World Beast Blood”

Key plot points

• The World Beasts, alarmed by Xiao Yang’s strength, order their two remaining enslaved Universe Masters to investigate him so they can eventually take revenge.
• The death of Nelia makes the World Beasts accelerate their mutual devouring, hoping to grow strong enough to survive a future confrontation with Xiao Yang.
• Unaware of their plans, Xiao Yang leaves the Dim Land and returns to the Game World. He intends to stay away for now, both to avoid driving the World Beasts into the vulnerable Cosmic Sea and to protect the many enslaved Universe Masters’ Miniature Universes.
• Xiao Yang brings World Beast blood and remains to Raul’s biological laboratory. Raul examines the blood and rapidly deduces that the creature evolves by consuming its own kind, carries the Destruction Origin Great Dao, and has incomplete genes. He also concludes that a mature World Beast could serve as a valuable subject for studying that Dao.
• Xiao Yang’s Nether Sea Clone also analyzes the blood, but destroys much of the sample in the process. Examining the genes, Xiao Yang sees that the drop contains one hundred thousand tiny images of Nelia in different poses and emotional states. He cannot yet learn from them, so he decides to revisit the research when his Gene Level is higher.

Character developments and interactions

• The World Beasts shift from ignoring the Cosmic Sea to treating Xiao Yang as a serious threat. Their pride and fear of being killed by an outsider drive them to devour one another faster.
• Xiao Yang remains confident that he can outpace the World Beasts’ growth, but acts cautiously to protect the Cosmic Sea and the territory his forces may eventually control.
• Raul displays remarkable scientific intuition, inferring major facts about World Beast biology from a tiny blood sample. His excitement leads him to focus almost entirely on the specimen, while Xiao Yang quietly observes and admires his skill.
• Xiao Yang and Raul share an understated research encounter: Xiao Yang supplies the unprecedented specimen, and Raul’s findings deepen their understanding of it.

Significant themes

• Escalating rivalry: The World Beasts’ fear of Xiao Yang turns their natural competition into a race for survival.
• Knowledge through observation: Raul’s discoveries show the power of careful scientific study, while Xiao Yang’s own analysis reveals the limits imposed by his current abilities.
• Power and responsibility: Xiao Yang’s strength gives him the ability to intervene, but he avoids actions that could expose the Cosmic Sea to greater danger.
• Evolution through consumption: The World Beasts’ growth depends on devouring their own kind, tying their power to both survival and destruction.

Key plot points and events

• Xiao Yang continues investigating the biology of Raul’s hundred-thousand-times-gene creatures and World Beast blood, but his knowledge of genes is not yet advanced enough to understand either fully. He plans to revisit the research—and seek Raul’s advice—later.
• Over the next million years, humanity gains near-total control of the Primal Stars and an immense stockpile of treasures, including more than a hundred million Ordinary Supreme Treasures and over ten thousand Top-tier Supreme Treasures.
• The primordial universe will supports humanity’s rise by increasing the appearance of treasures and creating new planets and secret realms, while abundant universe origin boosts the birth of human geniuses.
• Humanity’s population of powerful beings expands dramatically: it has over 300,000 Venerables, more than ten billion Immortals, and over 300 Universe Masters. Almost all its Venerables reach perfect gene levels and become Top Universe Overlords.
• Humanity makes lower-level inheritances widely available and uses an Extraterrestrial Battlefield to train its Immortals. The supply of alien Immortals for opponents becomes a growing concern, forcing leaders to resurrect more.
• Giant Axe remains humanity’s only Strongest Being in the Universe, as its leaders expect Xiao Yang’s eventual advance to True Godhood may improve their gene levels and future potential.
• Luo Feng receives the Duan Donghe Inheritance early, with Xiao Yang’s backing. He proves worthy by creating a Sixth-Order Secret Technique while still a Venerable.
• The chapter ends with Xiao Yang lecturing Earthling geniuses on the relationship between space and time at the West Lake Holy Land.

Character developments

• Xiao Yang remains the driving force behind humanity’s growth through his research, crops, genetic improvements, and support for Luo Feng. He is also increasingly revered as “Ancestor Yang.”
• Luo Feng establishes himself as one of humanity’s strongest figures and a prodigy in his own right, demonstrating extraordinary skill with his Sixth-Order technique.
• Humanity’s leaders shift from managing scarcity to overseeing rapid expansion, while planning around the expected benefits of Xiao Yang’s future breakthrough.
• Raul remains a potential source of expertise for Xiao Yang’s unfinished genetic research.

Significant themes

• Collective advancement: Treasures, inherited knowledge, and Xiao Yang’s innovations turn humanity’s near-dominance into a flourishing civilization.
• Talent cultivated through opportunity: Expanded resources, public inheritances, and stronger cosmic conditions allow many more humans to become exceptional.
• Potential and patience: Humanity delays further breakthroughs while anticipating that Xiao Yang’s True Godhood may raise everyone’s limits.

Plot points and events

• After lecturing Earth’s young geniuses, Xiao Yang returns to his palace, where Luo Feng joins him. Earth’s strong position in the human race is largely due to Xiao Yang, who keeps an avatar there to protect it; he has already subdued attacks by alien Venerables and Universe Masters.
• Luo Feng asks whether Xiao Yang will take disciples. Xiao Yang declines, saying he is focused on his own growth and has not found a promising candidate.
• Luo Feng shows Xiao Yang a genetic map for a life-form capable of reproducing. Xiao Yang quickly corrects its flaws, but Luo Feng admits that progress on the divine power path and genetic research is difficult.
• Luo Feng has reached a genetic level of 20,000 times. Xiao Yang reveals that his own genes have reached 89,999 times—just short of the third stage. His progress has been aided by Raul’s guidance, the Hundred-Flavors Pig’s genetic maps, and accelerated time in Molly’s Biological Laboratory.
• Xiao Yang confirms that a fourth stage exists: 100,000-times genes, with possibly higher levels beyond it.
• Xiao Yang gives Luo Feng a Palace Supreme Treasure containing three drops of World Beast blood, telling him to study them. Luo Feng immediately realizes this means a World Beast crisis threatens their reincarnation era.

Character developments and interactions

• Xiao Yang remains focused on his own cultivation and resists pressure to take disciples, while continuing to protect Earth and help Luo Feng with his research.
• Luo Feng seeks Xiao Yang’s advice, recognizes the difficulty of genetic research, and trusts Xiao Yang’s claims over the limits described in the Duan Donghe Inheritance. His concern grows sharply when he learns of the World Beast blood.
