• Li Ping asked Senior Lin Feng for a way to survive, and Lin Feng urged him to understand who was influencing his circumstances.

• Future Ning Chen addressed Old Self and suggested that he had been waiting for this moment.

The narrator and "Old Self" nearly killed future Ning Chen, but Ning Chen summoned [Main God Space] and ten higher-dimensional beings, overwhelming them. The narrator resurrected in the small world while "Old Self" remained behind to face all eleven opponents.

• Future Ning Chen said Senior Lin Feng had prevented him from using [Main God Space]'s abilities and that otherwise "Old Self" would already be dead.

• The narrator resurrected at the small world's resurrection point and left "Old Self" to fight the eleven alone.

• The protagonist transformed into "Old Self," entered the [Higher-Dimensional Land], and found him fighting eleven Higher-Dimensional Entities with [Dawn].
• The protagonist gave "Old Self" the [Chaos Bell], [Twelfth-Rank Pure World White Lotus], and [God-Slaying Spear], then attacked an enemy and detonated himself at the higher-dimensional level.

• The protagonist detonated and resurrected tens of thousands of times, but the phantom [Main God Space] absorbed every explosion without being affected.

Chen Fan’s repeated self-destructions failed against the Main God Space projection, which reflected the damage and overwhelmed him with copies of his Old Self. After a future glimpse showed that his Chat Group privileges would also fail, his Once and for All talent automatically activated Transform All Beings again, revealing an unexpected target.

• Chen Fan’s self-destructions left the Main God Space projection unharmed, and its reflected damage killed him with thousands of Old Self projections.
• Chen Fan considered using his one-time Chat Group privileges, but the Great Dao revealed that a Golden Finger wielder would block his rules and the Eleven Higher-Dimensional Entities would defeat him.
• Chen Fan’s Once and for All talent activated and automatically deactivated his transformation into Old Self.
• Transform All Beings activated again, and Chen Fan learned the identity of the being he was about to become.

Chen Fan transformed into Past Li Ping, who appeared in the Higher-Dimensional Land as a temporary [Zero Returner] and recognized that Future Ning Chen was only a projection. Past Li Ping summoned the dormant [Creator] Colorful Class Card and prepared to act.

• Chen Fan realized that transforming into Past Li Ping could connect him to the [Creator] Colorful Class Card and used his Chat Group privileges to force Past Li Ping to obey his commands.
• [Purple Talent: Transform All Beings] activated, granting Chen Fan the temporary [Zero Returner] Colorful Class Card and manifesting Past Li Ping in the Higher-Dimensional Land.
• Future Ning Chen questioned Past Li Ping, who explained that Ning Chen was only a projection because Ning Chen had not yet died.
• Past Li Ping summoned the [Creator] Colorful Class Card from the [Gods and Devils Realms] and infused its power into the Blank Class Card.
• Past Li Ping announced that it was his turn and told his opponents to draw a card.

The narrator, transformed into Past Li Ping, fought Future Ning Chen and the Eleven Higher-Dimensional Entities, using the [Zero Returner] and [Creator] Class Cards to suppress them. After the narrator’s temporary power expired, the narrator canceled the transformation, leaving the battle’s aftermath uncertain.

• Past Li Ping deduced that Wang Hao had orchestrated events to bring out the [Creator] Class Card and summon Future Ning Chen.
• Future Ning Chen and Past Li Ping attacked simultaneously, and Past Li Ping used [Zero Returner] to erase the Eleven Higher-Dimensional Entities’ powers and the [Main God Space] projection.
• Past Li Ping used [Creator] to form worlds that overwhelmed the Eleven Higher-Dimensional Entities, then sealed them and Future Ning Chen inside the ring formed by his two Class Cards.
• The narrator’s [Existence from Nonexistence] ended, causing the narrator’s Old Self and the benefits gained through sacrifices to disappear.
• Before the narrator’s automatic-best-outcome ability vanished, the narrator canceled [Transform All Beings] to end the transformation into Past Li Ping.

Chen Fan realized that Past Li Ping had survived through the Ring and the genuine [Creator] Class Card, then learned that Li Ping had planned the trap in advance. Li Ping declared victory and prepared to replace Chen Fan, who had no remaining way to resist.

• Chen Fan noticed that the Ring remained after he canceled [Transform All Beings], and Past Li Ping reappeared within it.
• Past Li Ping revealed that the Ring persisted because [Creator] was genuine and had absorbed some of [Zero Returner]'s power to sustain it.
• Past Li Ping explained that the Ring had to remain to keep the Eleven Higher-Dimensional Entities suppressed, so his actions did not violate Chen Fan's Chat Group rules.
• Past Li Ping said he could now replace Chen Fan, who had no trump cards left and barely stood at the Supreme Level.
• Chen Fan realized he should have ordered Past Li Ping to destroy the Eleven Higher-Dimensional Entities instead of suppressing them, but accepted that he had lost and would fall.

Chen Fan became lost after drawing on the power of his incomplete Primordial Spiritual Root, briefly reaching the higher-dimensional level and interrupting Past Li Ping’s attempt to replace him. Past Li Ping explained why he needed Chen Fan’s identity and how he planned to use the Group Leader Backend, and Chen Fan activated Immortal-Settling Journey as his last move.

• Past Li Ping’s projection used the Ring’s power to erase Chen Fan’s past, present, and future imprints and replace him.
• Chen Fan drew on the heaven-and-earth power of Eternal Primordial Chaos Willow World, became lost, and reached the higher-dimensional level, causing Past Li Ping’s replacement attempt to falter.
• Past Li Ping entered Chen Fan’s disorientation and explained that Chen Fan’s identity was needed to regain access to the Chat Group and join future group missions.
• Past Li Ping revealed that he was a simulation without true spirit and planned to influence Chen Fan into using the Group Leader Backend to invite him into the Chat Group.
• Chen Fan activated the authority of Immortal-Settling Journey.

You returned to the Northern Land of Sin, used Judgment against the realm, and transformed into the True Scripture to face a Higher-Dimensional Existence. The judgment annihilated the Northern Land of Sin but left you and Past Li Ping near death, and the simulation ended with your true spirit consumed by Annihilation.

• You traveled from the Higher-Dimensional Land to the Northern Land of Sin and designated Past Li Ping as your archrival with Bitter Fruit.
• You activated Judgment against the Northern Land of Sin, selecting the entire realm as its target.
• As a Higher-Dimensional Existence appeared to attack, you used Transform All Beings to become the True Scripture.

• Past Li Ping endured the judgment and completed his replacement of you, while your true spirit fell into slumber and was eventually consumed by Annihilation.

Chen Fan reviewed the extraordinary rewards from the second future simulation and realized the reward assessment preserved talents and cultivation reached at the clone’s peak. He chose to inherit every reward, including the incomplete primordial willow root and eleven more colorful orb effects.

• Chen Fan saw the rewards from the second future simulation, including the Incomplete Myriad-Void Primordial Ancient Weeping Willow, and considered how it could greatly increase his strength.
• Chen Fan concluded that simulation rewards were calculated from the clone’s peak, so sacrificed talents and cultivation could still be inherited.
• Chen Fan realized that The Only Player had activated during the final reward assessment even after the clone sacrificed it, and considered the rewards gained from destroying the Northern Land of Sin.
• Chen Fan regretted that two Higher-Dimensional Existences had survived Judgment, and recognized them as threats he could not yet challenge.
• Chen Fan noted that Bitter Fruit had produced eleven more colorful orb effects, bringing his total to twenty-two, and inherited all the rewards from the second future simulation.
