Chapter Summaries

Shiliye awakened the hidden armaments and ancient armies of the First Abyss Plane, and Lynn welcomed the reinforcements as his forces continued hunting the Polluters. The angels joined Lynn’s command and used their knowledge of the Abyss to make the campaign far more effective.

• Shiliye activated ancient caches across the First Abyss Plane, equipping the angels with black armor and weapons.
• Demonic-energy puppets and ancient demons loyal to Lucifer awoke across the plane, revealing the vast army hidden beneath it.
• Shiliye explained that the sealed forces had been prepared to protect the First Abyss Plane during times of decline, and Lynn told her that her older sister was fighting alongside them.
• The angels joined Lynn’s expedition, and he integrated them into his squads as guides and deputy commanders.
• The angels used hidden portals and their knowledge of the Abyss to help Lynn’s forces surround and eliminate the Polluters more efficiently.

Lynn’s forces pushed through the Abyss while Sir Awen uncovered a vast region of Chaos Deep Space in the Fourth Plane, suggesting the Polluters had been boring a route through the Abyss. The chapter ended when Lynn learned that the Third Plane’s border also contained an inaccessible chaos-filled region.

• Shiliye reported that the Polluters in the First Plane had been nearly eliminated and that the Second Plane was under attack, while Silver Fantasy fought through resistance in the Fourth Plane.
• An angel offered to lead Origin’s squad through a Spatial Tunnel to bypass the Polluters’ sealed passages, and they agreed to follow.
• Sir Awen summoned Lynn to the Fourth Plane, where he pointed out an enormous area of Chaos Deep Space that the Polluters appeared to have excavated.
• Sir Awen suspected the Polluters had spent thousands of years connecting the Abyss to the outside world, and Lynn prepared to enter the chaotic region to investigate.
• A message reported that the Third Plane had been taken but that its border also held a dense, inaccessible region of chaos, prompting Lynn and Sir Awen to recognize the parallel.

Lynn brought Clown into an artificially carved Chaos Corridor in the Abyss and asked him to investigate it. Clown concluded that the corridor required a source generating chaos to remain stable, and Lynn realized it might lead to the Shattered World.

• Lynn entered the narrow region of chaos and released Clown from his Strange Otherworld.
• Clown recognized that the region was a deliberately carved corridor inside the Abyss, not ordinary Chaos Deep Space.
• Clown explained that the corridor’s stable boundary required one or more nodes continuously generating chaotic power.
• Lynn questioned whether the Polluters were building a passage to the Main Universe, then realized the Chaos Corridor might lead to the Shattered World.

Lynn and Weeping Clown realized the corrupted deities might use the Abyss’s mechanisms to spread corruption, then discovered a junction connecting five chaos corridors. They hid as wounded archdemons arrived, reporting the Fifth Plane’s fall and ordering forces to retreat into Chaos Deep Space.

• Weeping Clown warned Lynn not to underestimate the corrupted deities, who might exploit the Abyss to transport corruption across the universe.
• Lynn thanked Clown, then struck him after Clown bragged about his past.
• Lynn and Clown found a junction where five chaos corridors converged, suggesting passages had been opened from several planes.
• Clown reasoned that the junction likely had a nearby energy source sustaining the vast amount of chaos.
• Lynn and Clown concealed themselves as wounded archdemons emerged from a corridor.
• The archdemons said the Fifth Plane had fallen and ordered the garrisons in the Sixth and Seventh Planes to withdraw their elite forces into Chaos Deep Space, while questioning why the Raven Heavenly Father's projection had not appeared.

Lynn and Clown followed a wounded Archdemon through the Chaos Corridor and discovered that the Divine Realm’s forces were using imprisoned Chaos Beings in enormous engines to sustain the passage. They continued past multiple engines as the corridor stretched toward a predetermined destination, and Lynn suspected it led to the Shattered World.

• Lynn and Clown secretly followed the wounded Archdemon into the Chaos Corridor after hearing the Archdemons discuss opening a passage.
• They found a planet-sized Chaos Engine imprisoning a Chaos Being and releasing its power to stabilize the corridor.
• Clown feared the technology could let the Polluters deploy controllable Chaos Beings against the Main Universe, but Lynn chose to keep following the passage before acting.
• Clown concealed Lynn and himself as they bypassed the engine and its stationed troops, then hurried deeper into the corridor.
• They discovered a second Chaos Engine and realized the passage was far longer than expected, suggesting it led to the Shattered World rather than the Main Universe.

Lynn and Clown reached the front of the Chaos Corridor, where three enormous Chaos Engines were rapidly clearing a path toward the Broken Divine Realm. Lynn attacked the Polluter army alone, and after Zuo Zuo helped him cleave apart a barrage of chaos-powered death rays, the Archdemons rallied to meet his charge.

• Lynn and Clown realized that the Chaos Engines throughout the corridor were moving forward faster, suggesting the Legion was close to achieving its goal.
• They reached the front and saw three planet-sized Chaos Engines clearing spatial turbulence, surrounded by Arks of Doom and Polluters.
• Lynn charged toward the guarded engines, revealing his power and drawing the fleet's attention.
• A dozen Arks of Doom fired chaos-powered death rays at Lynn, but Zuo Zuo used the Night Demon Blade to split the barrage and tear a rift through the corridor.
• The Archdemons recognized Lynn as the Raven and sent their forces to stop him before he could disrupt their plan.

Lynn overwhelmed the polluted army and destroyed an Ark of Doom before attacking the Chaos Engines protected by a vast defensive barrier. As two engines powered up and the Archdemons caught up, Lynn tried to bypass the barrier by racing toward the upper boundary of the Chaos Corridor.

• Lynn charged into the polluted creatures, killed several Archdemons, and annihilated the attackers with his blade and Trinity power.
• Lynn punched a hole through the Polluters and destroyed an Ark of Doom with blazing sunlight.
• The Archdemons recognized Lynn’s overwhelming strength and realized he was targeting their Chaos Engines.
• Lynn dodged the Arks of Doom’s cannon fire and struck their honeycomb barrier, damaging the Arks behind it without breaking through.
• A Demon Lord ordered two Chaos Engines to enter warfare mode, while Lynn continued punching the barrier.
• Lynn rushed toward the upper boundary of the Chaos Corridor to go around the defenses as the Archdemons pursued him.

Lynn attacked the Arks of Doom in the spatial turbulence and destroyed one Chaos Engine, but the demon lord ordered the two remaining engines to overload in a suicidal attempt to kill him. As the nearest engine unleashed its catastrophic power, Lynn raised the Trident and formed a barrier with Trinity and firstborn power.

• Lynn warped through the spatial turbulence and charged toward the Chaos Engine opening the route.
• Lynn pierced and destroyed the first Chaos Engine with the Trident, destabilizing the Chaos Corridor.
• The demon lord ordered the two remaining Chaos Engines to release all their power, knowing the discharge would kill their forces as well.
• The Archdemons charged Lynn to hold him in place as the nearest overloaded Chaos Engine began to fracture and unleash its power.
• Lynn raised the Trident and formed a blinding barrier from Trinity and firstborn power.

Lynn survived the Polluters’ detonation of two Chaos Engines and realized their desperate attack meant the passage toward the Shattered World was nearly open. He returned with the Clown to destroy another Chaos Engine, planning to bring it near the Abyss and feed it to the Painter if they could not safely destroy it.

• The Polluters detonated two Chaos Engines, wiping out their forces and severely injuring the Clown, while Lynn survived by enduring the blast with his power.
• Lynn and Zuo Zuo suspected the Polluters were close to opening a passage to the Shattered World, where true deities might cross into the Main Universe.
• Lynn decided to return along the Chaos Corridor to eliminate its remaining Chaos Engines, and he picked up the injured Clown as he passed him.
• Lynn and the Clown killed the Polluter garrison and the Archdemons guarding the nearest Chaos Engine.
• Lynn proposed moving the engine near the Abyss and feeding it to the Painter if they could not destroy it safely.

Lynn dragged nearly ten Chaos Engines out of the Chaos Corridor, then returned to the Fourth Plane and warned his assembled army that Polluters might be opening a passage to the shattered Divine Realm. He ordered Sir Awen to seek support from Hell and Aivier as the expedition prepared for a possible attack.

• Lynn and Clown ambushed defenders along their route and hauled nearly ten Chaos Engines back toward the Abyss before Lynn left Clown to guard them.

Lynn reassured Silver Fantasy that his family would not have to sacrifice themselves for him, then brought her to see the Chaos Engines he had seized from the Polluters. Silver Fantasy discovered that the constructs used a corruptive power to restrain the Chaos Beings inside them, but the chapter ended before she named its source.

• Lynn feared that Awen and Brain would sacrifice themselves to help him achieve the true Trinity, and Silver Fantasy comforted him while promising to keep his fear secret.
• Lynn joked that he wanted Silver Fantasy to comfort him more, so she punched him and left.

• Clown left to report while Lynn crossed into the spatial turbulence and hid himself.

Lynn and Zuo Zuo discovered a massive Chaos Engine and an army of corrupted Divine Kingdom knights along the Chaos Corridor. After entering the Main Universe, Lynn recognized a vast rift as a fallen Broken Eye connecting the Broken Divine Realm to the universe.

• Lynn and Zuo Zuo found an enormous Chaos Engine powering the Chaos Corridor and saw fleets of arks carrying organized troops of corrupted Divine Kingdom knights.
• Lynn said he would not fear facing the corrupted gods, but avoided the army and continued toward the end of the corridor.
• Lynn tore through warped space and emerged into the Main Universe, where he and Zuo Zuo saw a huge rift surrounded by corrupted stars and pouring out Polluters.
• Lynn recognized the rift as a fallen Broken Eye, one of the passages connecting the Broken Divine Realm to the Main Universe.

Lynn discovered that a vast enemy army could invade the Abyss through a rift connecting the Main Universe and the Broken Divine Realm, leaving him little time to prepare. The Origins chose to defend the Abyss, while news from Hell revealed that Painter had attracted the Calamity’s attention and had to flee into the Chaos Abyss.

• Lynn placed spatial nodes along the Chaos Corridor to monitor the enemy army’s movements and warned Silver Fantasy that an invasion could begin within hours or a day.
• Lynn told Silver Fantasy they might have to abandon the Abyss if they could not hold off the invasion, but she vowed to fight rather than retreat.
• Lynn informed the Origins that they could withdraw to safety, but they refused to surrender the Abyss and pledged to fight the Deities.
• Lynn rallied the Origins to defend the Abyss, and they chanted, “Fight to the death, never retreat!”
• Lynn contacted Sir Awen, who reported that Painter had drawn the Calamity’s attention and had retaken control of her body before venturing into the Chaos Abyss to evade it.

With the Polluters advancing through the Chaos Corridor, Lynn entered the deepest part of the Sea of Minds to refine a theory that could turn the Abyss into a forbidden zone for Chaos. The enemy vanguard neared the corridor’s fork, where Silver Fantasy and the Chaos Engines remained exposed, while Lynn was still in seclusion.

• Lynn learned that Aivier had left Hell and would fight alongside them, though reaching the Abyss would take her time.
• Lynn asked Captain Constantine to monitor the Chaos Corridor, then entered seclusion in the Sea of Minds to develop a defense that would make the Abyss hostile to Chaos.
• The Origins and Angel Legion cleared Polluters from more than a hundred small planes and regrouped on the Fourth Plane to prepare for the invasion.
• Captain Constantine detected the enemy army’s advance, and the Origins decided they could not safely intercept it through Spatial Turbulence.
• As the vanguard neared the fork in the Chaos Corridor, Sir Awen urged the Weeping Clown to warn Miss Machine Intelligence to retreat from the exposed position.

Silver Fantasy led ten Chaos Engines into the Chaos Corridor to delay the approaching enemy, while the Weeping Clown stayed behind to draw out whoever had created them. The Clown used a fragment of firstborn power to summon a terrifying form as black mist surged toward him.

An enormous Polluter fleet prepared to advance toward the Abyss as its leaders debated whether Raven’s time war was changing history or exploring possible futures. Silver Fantasy sensed the fleet approaching and readied the Chaos Engines for a final battle.

• An uncanny blood-red man questioned a shadow-shrouded figure about Raven’s actions in the Abyss and how he might have hidden from the Heavenly Father.
• The shadow-shrouded figure explained that history could be rewritten without those living through it remembering, and proposed that Raven might be exploring possible paths to prevent the Heavenly Father’s awakening.
• The blood-red man rejected the idea that their reality might be only a disposable possibility, while the shadow-shrouded figure admitted he hoped the theory was false.

• Silver Fantasy sensed the fleet’s approach and activated more than a dozen Chaos Engines, preparing for a battle that would end with one side dead.

The Clown fought a being named Nightmare while sensing seven Sacrificial Detonations from the Mechanical Maiden’s battle with the Divine Realm’s Expeditionary Army. Nightmare revealed that he could not corrupt the Clown because he sensed remnants of the Joybringer in him, and asked whether the Clown had emerged as a Jailer after an expedition against the Joybringer.

• The Clown sensed two Sacrificial Detonations followed by five more from the Chaos Corridor and realized the Mechanical Maiden had encountered the Divine Realm’s Expeditionary Army.
