Chapter Summaries

Zhang Fan restored the Female Priestess Anlin's consciousness and revealed his divine power, convincing her that he was the God King and earning her pledge to avenge her sisters. Meanwhile, Zhang Hongjun's efforts to win allies faltered, so he decided he needed to demonstrate his strength.

• Anlin accepted Zhang Fan as the God King and vowed to avenge her sisters, while Bai He and Black Moon pledged to help.
• Zhang Hongjun found that the Dark Gold Tower, the Element Race, and the Taita Race would not join him, so he told Anders he would demonstrate his strength.

Zhang Hongjun sent Anders's fleet to attack the Black Market while preparing a strike on the Element Star Domain, and Zhang Fan maneuvered the Insect Race's support among their allies. Anders's forces overwhelmed the Black Market Guard Army, but Snow White's fleet withheld aid, leaving the Dark Gold Tower waiting at their mercy.

• Snow White refused to send the Insect Race fleet into battle and told the Dark Gold Tower to wait, while hinting that the Insect Race might take a share of the Black Market.

Zhang Fan reclaimed most of the Insectoid Race by trapping its army inside the Black Market’s Alternate-Dimensional Space and awakening their dormant overlord consciousness. He then revealed that Zhang Hongjun had used the Insect Race as bait to draw the Taita forces into a devastating attack, and chose to absorb the remaining Taita forces rather than rescue them.

• Snow White persuaded Dark Gold Tower to wait until the Insectoid Race army had entered the Alternate-Dimensional Space, and Zhang Fan arrived as the entrance closed.

• Zhang Fan refused to save the remaining Taita forces and ordered the Insect Race to bring its warship factories to the region and absorb them.

After the Insect Race conquered its share of the Taita Star Region, Zhang Fan and Valaya discussed their plans as the universe’s powers fell into a tense lull. Zhang Fan presented Sitasia with a genetically created Atlas infant, leaving her to cradle a possible beginning for her people.

• The Insect Race attacked the Taita people, and Snow White killed Taita and took the Taita Throne before Valaya arrived.
• Zhang Fan explained to Valaya that Zhang Hongjun had traded the Insectoid Race for two-thirds of the Taita Star Region because he could no longer control them.

When Zhang Hongjun began expanding his forces and using the Time Control Device, Zhang Fan mobilized his allies to stop him from opening a passage between universes.

• Sitasia accepted Zhang Fan’s help, received the Water-Mirror Sword, and swore that the Atlas race would serve the Insect Race.
• Within two years, Sitasia subdued the Steel Roar Metal Element Race and defeated the Woodwind Wood Element Race, with Stone Mother Gaia obeying her.

• Zhang Fan sat on the Throne to carefully consider which route to pursue, with the survival of both universes at stake.

Zhang Fan gambled that Zhang Hongjun had left his Capital Star vulnerable and ordered the Insect Race army to attack it. Zhang Hongjun’s forces emerged to confront them as a hidden gateway began opening to another world.

• The Element Race and Guardian Race leaders accused Zhang Hongjun of using false gods, while the Insect Race slowly gained ground against his God Race warriors.
• Double Blade rallied the God Race troops and repelled three Insect Race assaults, so Snow White went to confront him in battle.
• Snow White and Double Blade fought evenly until she revealed her spiked carapace, while Double Blade expanded his golden armor into the God Race’s exoskeleton.
• Shusha identified a golden {Kronos} hidden behind a star and ordered three insect-transformed Miras Cannons to test its defenses.

• Shusha refused Sitasia’s request to send in the fire element troops, keeping the Element Race in reserve as a trump card.

Snow White destroyed Double Blade’s armor and killed him, allowing the Insect Race to overwhelm the God Race. Meanwhile, Zhang Fan found the shadow at the Golden Gate and blocked his connection to Zhang Hongjun, leaving the shadow demanding to know what he intended.

• Zhang Fan identified the shadow as having split from Zhang Hongjun and blocked their mental connection, prompting the shadow to demand what he was trying to do.

• Bai He, Black Moon, and Ink Turtle used their abilities to reveal Zhang Fan standing before enormous golden doors, and Bai He sensed him approaching and warned him not to open them.

Zhang Fan began undoing the Golden Gate’s Seal while the Kronos’s allies prepared to trust him and defend his ship. As Zhang Hongjun’s main force attacked, the Element Race and Insect Race battled the God Race fleet, and Blade led a force toward the Kronos, where Pangu went out to meet him.

• Pangu led his personal force against Blade’s capital ships, and Blade left his ship to challenge Pangu to a fight.

As Zhang Hongjun reached for the Time Control Device, a man appeared on the Throne and called himself Zhang Hongjun’s father.

• Zhang Hongjun begged Zhang Fan to spare the God Race and explained that he had gathered genes for the Twelve-Sided Cube, but still needed the Judgment Dragons' genes.

After securing the universe and seeing how Earth’s humans had developed, Zhang Fan felt unsure what to do with his life and considered whether he might live among humans again. Livia’s suggestion left him curious about experiencing human society firsthand.

• Livia suggested Zhang Fan live among humans in disguise, and he became interested in observing their society firsthand.

After thousands of years of war, Zhang Fan felt empty despite humanity's safety, so Shusha prepared an insect body that let him blend in among humans on Earth. His excitement at exploring his new life was interrupted by a military courier, whom he mistook for Hongjun.

• Zhang Fan discussed the Qiya People and the possibility that the black hole had sent him back in time or created a parallel universe, then ordered Kaina to search the Vitter Universe for any remaining False God Race members.

• When the scout drew his saber and demanded to know who he was, Zhang Fan looked at his face and called him Hongjun.

Zhang Fan explored the human world, then decided to help a human leader unite Earth rather than do it himself. He returned to {Kronos} and tasked Hu Baili and Buffett with finding a leader, while Kui refused to leave Domina.

• A scout hid Zhang Fan from the Black Wind Knights, but Zhang Fan defeated them and sent the surviving riders away from the scout.

Zhang Fan organized the Insect Race to train a Human Emperor who could unite and develop Earth, offering a galaxy to conquer as the reward. He established a dangerous training ground called Kunlun, where the first candidates would face giant beasts.

Zhang Fan, Hu Baili, and Buffett began testing human soldiers on Mount Kunlun as part of the Human Emperor Plan. The general’s squad struggled against the first training creatures, and Zhang Fan argued that humanity’s potential lay in its intelligence and god gene.

• Buffett disguised himself as an old caretaker and warned the arriving general and his soldiers about the mountain’s poisonous mist, then gave them Antidote Pills and let them proceed.
• Zhang Fan, Hu Baili, and Buffett watched the soldiers enter the first trial, where the men became sick and took the pills.
• Speed bugs attacked the squad, and the general ordered his soldiers into a defensive formation.
