• Zhang Fan invited Sitasia after sensing that Wendini’s water essence had helped Pangu recover, and he offered Sitasia a home and protection from Zhang Hongjun.
• Sitasia accepted Zhang Fan’s offer and asked him to arrange a bathing pool for her and Wendini.

• Sitasia asked to join the talks, and Pangu allowed her and Wendini to observe; Zhang Fan also instructed Pangu to seek information about divine artifacts from Wendini.
• Shusha told Zhang Fan that Atlas belonged to the Element Race and suggested its branches might hold other divine artifacts, so he ordered a discreet investigation and a rumor campaign.
• At the meeting, Dili denied that the Time Control Device had been in Mimipa's treasury and proposed dividing the universe with the Insect Race.
• After Hu Baili reminded Dili that Zhang Fan still resented Mimipa's death, Dili urged cooperation against Zhang Hongjun, and Hu Baili agreed to discuss an alliance.

Hu Baili negotiated a tentative alliance with Dili, using Princess Sitasia and the Seven Element Races as leverage to challenge Taita’s side. After the talks, Zhang Fan learned that Sitasia could contact the other Element Races and declared that a new game would begin.

Taita investigated the Guardian priestess who could unlock the Divine Artifact, while Zhang Fan prepared to expand the Insect Race’s alliance and attack the Cloud Ghost Nebula. Noya led troops to Nusha Star, where she went to face a winged white tiger and its army of flying beasts.

• Dili told Taita that the Guardian priestess had sealed the Divine Artifact, and Taita ordered him to investigate her whereabouts and whether others from the Guardian Race could break the seal.
• Zhang Fan revealed that Sitasia and Wendini had switched identities, then asked Sitasia to negotiate with the Element Race alongside Nexis.
• After Sitasia objected to Zhang Fan’s plan to subdue the Cloud Ghost Nebula alliance by force, Zhang Fan ordered the Ghost Shadow Bugs to scout and left the planet resisting the Barton People to Noya.
• Noya took her troops to Nusha Star despite Badara’s warning about its powerful warriors, and the Insect Race army came under fire before landing.
• Noya saw a winged white tiger leading tens of thousands of flying creatures and went to meet it while ordering the ground troops to establish a base.

Noya repelled White Tiger Venerable’s Nusha Army by mocking and overpowering him, then fought Badara aboard the warship. White Tiger Venerable reported his defeat to the Red Dragon King, and Black Tortoise Venerable volunteered to face Noya next.

• Noya fought White Tiger Venerable, dodged his attacks, and humiliated him until he ordered the Nusha Army to retreat.
• Noya returned to the warship, identified White Tiger Venerable with Badara, and agreed to fight Badara despite their pending campaign.
• Noya and Badara exchanged blows in midair while White Tiger Venerable halted his retreat and sent scouts to investigate their battle.
• The scouts reported that Noya was fighting Badara, and White Tiger Venerable ordered his troops to regroup and block their advance.
• White Tiger Venerable told the Red Dragon King that a girl had made a fool of him, and Black Tortoise Venerable volunteered to challenge Noya.

Noya defeated Badara in a sparring match, then fought Black Tortoise Venerable when he approached the Insect Race’s territory. A powerful fire-wielding ally forced Noya to let him leave, and Noya realized the campaign on Nusha Star would be difficult.

• Ailinshan arranged medical treatment for Badara after Noya defeated her, then told Noya the Overlord had forbidden her from sparring with their own people.

• Noya fought Ink Turtle, overwhelmed him with her speed and strength, and challenged him to leave the Insect Race’s territory.
• A ball of fire burned Noya’s Bio-Missiles to ash and delivered the Red Dragon King’s summons, forcing Ink Turtle to depart with it.
• Noya told Badara she had been too afraid to pursue them and said the Overlord had taught her to fight when she could win and run when she could not.

The Rasha Race’s nighttime raid and Night Wolf Venerable’s assassination attempt both failed against the Insect Race. Mysterious Bird offered to lead the next attack in exchange for her freedom if she won.

• Ink Turtle reported that Noya was powerful enough to force him to advance, and Red Dragon King refused Mysterious Bird’s suggestion to awaken the ancestors.
• The Rasha army launched a nighttime raid but lost over half its forces because the Insect Race was active and difficult to detect in the dark.
• Noya caught Night Wolf Venerable’s dagger attack in the Command Room, where Demon Abyss Assassins incapacitated his five accomplices.

• Night Wolf Venerable returned to the Rasha Hall and described the Insect Race’s strength, leaving Red Dragon King unsure how to proceed.
• Mysterious Bird volunteered to lead the next attack and demanded freedom if she returned with a complete victory.

The Insect Race attacked Sla River City, and Noya tried to divert the moat while Badara kept up a feint. Noya defeated Ink Turtle but was driven off from finishing him by Mysterious Bird, and the battle ended with both sides facing off.

• Badara and Noya planned an aerial assault after the Insect Race found Sla River City's walls and moat difficult to breach.
• Badara bombarded the mountains beside the city, but discovered that Nusha's defenses extended through the rock.
• Noya led Burrowing Bugs upstream to dig a new channel and drain the moat, while Badara maintained a feint.
• Ink Turtle attacked the Burrowing Bugs, but Noya transformed and wounded him before a fireball from Mysterious Bird forced her to retreat.
• Noya lured Mysterious Bird into being struck by her own fireball, but Mysterious Bird swallowed it unharmed and warned the Insect Race to stop attacking.
• Badara arrived with the master of Barton and Fire Armor Bugs, and Noya ate one of them in response to Mysterious Bird's taunt.

Noya overwhelmed Mysterious Bird with her third-stage evolution and ordered Nusha to surrender within two days. On Kronos, Zhang Fan learned that the Insect Race had a distinct genetic form related to the creator gene, while Valaya sensed the surge of God Race power.

• Noya fought Mysterious Bird while the Insect Race captured the wounded Ink Turtle near Sla River City.
• Mysterious Bird trapped Noya in a flame barrier but spared her and urged her to leave Nusha.
• Noya revealed her perfected form and sacred power, which Mysterious Bird mistook for the God Race; two elders on Nusha Star welcomed the God Race's return.

• On Kronos, Shusha told Zhang Fan that Noya had unlocked third-stage evolution and explained how Insect Race genes differed from the creator and demon genes.
• Valaya asked about the surge of God Race power, and Zhang Fan dismissed it as Noya throwing a tantrum.

Zhang Fan arranged defenses, pursued materials and allies for the warship factory, and sent reinforcements toward Nusha as Noya prepared to meet the Nusha race. The chapter ended with Noya approaching the meeting while the Insect Race’s artillery trained on the visitors.

• Valaya agreed to visit Gaia and persuade the earth element race to join the alliance, while demanding materials for a million Great Emperor-Class Warships.
• Zhang Fan ordered Shusha to retrieve warship parts near the Time Passage and send forces to lie low there.
• After spotting giant beasts heading toward Nusha, Zhang Fan sent Snow White and Weasel to support Noya and warned Noya to flee if she could not defeat the two elders.
• Noya agreed to meet the Nusha race at Gemumu Lake, and the Nusha elders insisted they had come to talk rather than fight.
• Badara aimed the Insect Race’s artillery at the Nusha delegation, while Noya went forward to meet them and Zhang Fan urged her to be careful.

Noya and Badara met the Nusha people, who mistook them for servants of the God Race and offered their loyalty. Zhang Fan decided to exploit their belief and revealed himself as their returning God King, then challenged them over their long inaction as the False Gods spread.

• Noya arrived at Gemumu Lake with Badara and two {Shield Apes}, where Bai He and Black Moon knelt and welcomed her as a Divine Envoy.
• Badara persuaded the Nusha elders to withdraw their troops and brought them aboard the {Kronos} to meet Zhang Fan.
• Shusha told Zhang Fan that records described the Nusha people as survivors of the God Race's vanguard, and Zhang Fan planned to use them against Zhang Hongjun.

• Zhang Fan rebuked the Nusha elders for hiding for ten million years while False Gods acted in the God Race's name.

Zhang Fan ordered Bai He and the others to prove their allegiance by rescuing the Guardian Race’s High Priestess, then investigated Mysterious Bird after learning she was likely the last survivor of the Reese Fire Element Race. Mysterious Bird admitted she wanted freedom, and Zhang Fan suggested that reviving her race might still be possible.

• Zhang Fan confronted Bai He, Black Moon, and the Red Dragon King about their ignorance of the God Race’s history and demanded that they rescue the Guardian Race’s imprisoned High Priestess.
• Zhang Fan sent Weasel with Bai He’s group and warned Bai He that this was their last chance to prove their loyalty.
• Princess Sitasia returned and told Zhang Fan she had sensed a survivor of the Reese Fire Element Race; Zhang Fan suspected Mysterious Bird and arranged to summon her.
• Shusha identified Mysterious Bird as a likely survivor of the Reese Fire Element Race, and Mysterious Bird questioned Zhang Fan’s claim to be a God Race member.
• Zhang Fan suggested that Mysterious Bird might be able to revive her race, and she revealed that she wanted freedom above all.

Sitasia and Valaya recruited Stone Mother Gaia and the Gaia Race into the cosmic Alliance, though Stone Mother demanded control of the Element Race and still held a grudge against the Atlas race. Back on Kronos, Zhang Fan began preparing to unite the Vitter Universe and oversaw the construction of a Great Emperor-Class Warship, which he promptly had dismantled.

• Sitasia and Valaya met Stone Mother Gaia, who agreed to join the cosmic Alliance after Sitasia explained Zhang Fan's proposal, but demanded final say over the Element Race.
• Stone Mother attacked Sitasia over their old feud, but Valaya stopped her and warned her not to try again.
• Zhang Fan promised the Gaia Race warships and a suitable planet, while insisting that Sitasia remain protected until the Insect Race fulfilled its agreement with her.
• Sitasia agreed to let Stone Mother control Element Race affairs after Zhang Hongjun was killed, and Zhang Fan asked Stone Mother to persuade Mysterious Bird to join.
• Shusha told Valaya that materials and a Space Channel were ready, and a Great Emperor-Class Warship was completed in the Insect Race Starfield within three days.
• Zhang Fan sent millions of Insect Race members to dismantle the newly built warship, prompting Valaya to shout at him.

After the Insect Race modified Valaya’s Great Emperor-Class Warship, Zhang Fan dismissed a suspicious Black Market death message about the High Priestesses and sent Stone Mother Gaia’s Element Race to investigate. Taita’s and Nusha’s factions also headed for the Black Market, where their leaders’ parties gathered.

• Shusha explained that the Insect Race had upgraded the warship’s weapons, power, and defenses without changing its control system, and Valaya accepted the modifications.
• Zhang Fan accelerated the Insect Race’s invasion as Taita’s and Nusha’s sides searched for the missing High Priestesses.
• A Black Market seller offered information about the High Priestesses as a death message, and Zhang Fan suspected Zhang Hongjun was using it to lure people into a trap.
• Zhang Fan decided to wait for Taita’s or Nusha’s side to obtain the information, then take it from them rather than pay for it.
• Stone Mother Gaia volunteered the Element Race, with Mysterious Bird joining, to investigate the Black Market information.
• The Rasha Race sent the Red Dragon King, Black Tortoise Venerable, and White Tiger Venerable to the Black Market, while Dili led Taita’s party there.

Zhang Hongjun learned that the Black Market had verified the High Priestess’s whereabouts and decided to use the auction to turn its scheme against it. At the Black Market, the bidding for the information climbed to enormous sums while Stone Mother and her companions watched.

• Anders warned Zhang Hongjun that the Black Market was too powerful to attack, so Zhang Hongjun ordered him to bid as high as possible and prepared a plan.
• The Red Dragon King’s group arrived at the Black Market entrance, but Stone Mother’s Insect Race warship entered ahead of them without accepting contact.
• Stone Mother explained that the Black Market’s alternate-dimensional space disabled technological systems but did not stop living Insect Race warships.
• The Golden-Masked Man announced that the Black Market had verified the High Priestess’s whereabouts and showed that the Appraisers had been killed to preserve the sale’s secrecy.
• Bidding ships appeared beside the assembled warships, and anonymous offers rapidly drove the price of the High Priestess’s location higher.

At the Black Market auction, rival bidders pushed the price for the Guardian Race's High Priestess to six hundred galaxies, but the Noto Race then accused the market of selling false information. The Noto man presented a woman whose touch awakened the Water-Mirror Sword, apparently proving she was the High Priestess.

• Stone Mother, Sitasia, and Mysterious Bird realized that the Insect Race and Rasha Race were bidding separately, while Mysterious Bird said their mission was to verify the information.
• The Taita Race's Dili and the Rasha Race's Red Dragon King could not afford to continue, and the Golden-Masked Man sold the information for six hundred galaxies.
• Stone Mother told Sitasia to use her Water Illusion Technique to impersonate the Golden-Masked Man and bring the buyer to them, but Mysterious Bird called the plan naive.
• A Noto Race man appeared on the big screen, accused the Black Market of fraud, and claimed he had brought the real Guardian High Priestess.
• The Noto man gave the Water-Mirror Sword to a woman, and its blade shone with pale blue light as Sitasia recognized its water element energy.

Stone Mother Gaia, Sitasia, and Mysterious Bird infiltrated the Black Market flagship to seize the priestess, only to discover that the supposed Noto prince was Anders in disguise. They escaped through Sitasia’s Water Portal with the priestess, whose vacant state left Sitasia wondering what had happened to her.

• The Insect Race refused to attack and secretly helped Gaia, Sitasia, and Mysterious Bird board the Black Market flagship to capture the priestess.
• Taita, Nusha, and Rasha forces also infiltrated the flagship, and explosions threw the ship into chaos as the priestess was escorted toward a safe room.
• Dark Gold Tower ordered the disguised women to escort the Noto prince, and Mysterious Bird led them into a trap that sealed the safe room’s entrance.
• Mysterious Bird confronted the prince, who revealed himself as Zhang Hongjun’s Deputy General, Anders, while Sitasia defeated his guards and seized the priestess.
• Gaia and Sitasia escaped through a Water Portal, and Mysterious Bird joined them after cutting off Anders’s attempt to follow.
• Sitasia saw the priestess’s vacant expression and asked whether she had been tortured into that state.

The {Insect Shaper} concealed the Female Priestess while persuading a Black Market guard captain that the Black Market faced powerful enemies and should prepare to collapse. After the guards left the Insect Race's warship, the captain remained suspicious but listened as the {Insect Shaper} suggested the Rasha Race was framing the Insect Race.

• The {Insect Shaper} told Stone Mother Gaia he would handle the Black Market guards while she stayed with the Female Priestess.
• The guard captain boarded the Insect Race's warship to search for the Female Priestess, and the {Insect Shaper} let his soldiers inspect it.
• The {Insect Shaper} offered the guard captain a Crystal Card and warned that the Black Market had made enemies of the Taita, Zhang Hongjun, and other powerful factions.
• The guard captain told the {Insect Shaper} that the Element Race had likely seized the Female Priestess, then refused to take the Crystal Card.
• After the guards found nothing and left, the {Insect Shaper} argued that Zhang Hongjun could use the Noto Race to ruin the Black Market and that the Rasha Race might be framing the Insect Race.

The Insect Race helped Stone Mother and the Element Race escape the Black Market, then brought the Female Priestess to Zhang Fan. After discovering Nanobugs in her, Zhang Fan planned to develop a way to break through the golden consciousness protecting them and enlisted the Element Race to help confront Zhang Hongjun.

• The Insect Shaper persuaded the Black Market to stop searching the Insect Race's warship, and the Insect Race escorted Stone Mother and the others out of the Alternate-Dimensional Space.
• The Insect Race's warship teleported back to its starfield, leaving the captain regretting that he had taken the money.
• Shusha and Duolaner examined the Female Priestess and found Nanobugs inside her, while Zhang Fan discovered their overlord consciousness was blocked by a golden consciousness.
• Duolaner proposed creating a Consciousness Enhancement Device after Hu Baili suggested using an amplification principle to strengthen Zhang Fan's overlord consciousness.
• Zhang Fan asked Stone Mother to help unite the Wood Element and Metal Element races, promising Emperor-Class Warships and calling for revenge against Zhang Hongjun.
• Zhang Fan declared himself part of the God Race and called Zhang Hongjun a false god, and Mysterious Bird affirmed her belief in him.

Stone Mother and Princess Sitasia rallied the Element Race against Zhang Hongjun as the Insect Race's scheme left his faction surrounded by enemies. Zhang Fan continued manipulating the conflict and began testing a newly developed Overlord Consciousness Enhancer on the Female Priestess.

• Stone Mother and Princess Sitasia announced the God Race's return, exposed Zhang Hongjun's crimes, and called the elements to unite against him.
• Most of the Element Race joined Sitasia, while the Taita Race and Tiger aligned with the Insect Race's plans, leaving Zhang Hongjun facing enemies on several fronts.
• Anders explained to Zhang Hongjun that the Insect Race had likely orchestrated the crisis by manipulating events around the Female Priestess and the Black Market.
• Zhang Hongjun accepted Anders's proposals to win over the Element Race and provoke conflict between the Black Market and the Taita Race.
• Zhang Fan instructed the Element Race to cooperate, offered support to the Black Market, and authorized the Kurman Pirates to raid Taita's supplies while blaming Zhang Hongjun.
• Duolaner reported that the Overlord Consciousness Enhancer was complete, and Zhang Fan began testing it by linking his consciousness to the Female Priestess.
