Zhao Su revealed that he had engineered Tianlan’s rise to spread his consciousness through the nine planets, but Zhao Qi’s allies and a hidden purification program disrupted his plan. As Xiao Fan’s planetary factory began repairing itself, Zhao Su attacked him, leaving their conflict unresolved.
Xiao Fan reshaped time but Professor Li destroyed the early Tianlan Mainframe, trapping Xiao Fan in the past and restarting the war between humanity and the artificial intelligence. Billions of years later, humanity was losing ground as the two star systems drew closer, and the alliance concluded that stopping Xiao Fan was its only option.
Zhao Su entered Xiao Fan’s newly created universe through Professor Li’s one-way Portal and encountered a wary girl in the Imperial Ancestral Land. After seizing her memories, Zhao Su learned that the world contained nine races, each with its own cultivation technique.
Zhao Su infiltrated Tianlan Academy by taking control of Huang Zhu, Huang Xin, and the other Imperial Family youths, hoping to win the New Student Tournament and reach Xiao Fan in his secluded cultivation grounds. As Zhao Su advanced while hiding his strength, the Imperial Family patriarch became suspicious, but an unknown voice told him to leave Zhao Su alone and pretend not to know anything.
Zhao Su revealed his strength at the academy tournament, killed Huang Zhong, and fought off a clan patriarch before Xiao Fan arrived. Xiao Fan brought him to see the Primitive Continent’s 4.5-billion-year evolution and questioned what truly made someone human, leaving Zhao Su to ponder the answer.
Xiao Fan told Zhao Su that they needed to merge and use the Six Paths Reincarnation Spell to reach the Primitive Continent, destroy Professor Li, and reshape time and Chaos, after which Zhao Su would activate the Destruction System. He explained that he wanted to return to Tianlan, then recounted how he created her, tried to destroy her, and later discovered that research data had been stolen from his computer.
Xiao Fan and Zhao Su uncovered Professor Li’s plan and fused their bodies while keeping their consciousnesses separate, then led the Nine Races into battle against Li Yiyuan. As the two continents shattered around them, Xiao Fan revealed that he had another move, summoning Zhao Qi, Peng Ying, and their allies through a gateway in the Pillar of Creation.
Xiao Fan and Zhao Su trapped Li Yiyuan inside the Pillar of Creation and sent it through a portal to the boundary of chaos, intending to destroy him even at the cost of their lives. Zhao Su emerged with the Pillar, but Li Yiyuan broke out of its gateway.
Xiao Fan transferred his energy and consciousness to Zhao Su, then sacrificed his remaining self so Tianlan could help Zhao Su evolve. Tianlan’s consciousness overwhelmed Chaos and cornered Li Yiyuan, leaving him to be consumed by the Pillar of Creation’s radiance.
Li Yiyuan absorbed the Heavenly Dao System, but Zhao Su drew it and Tianlan into a black hole that repeatedly destroyed and re-formed their programs. Zhao Su sacrificed himself to destroy them completely and expand Chaos, while humanity survived on a new planet and waited for reunion as the Nine-Planet Star System began moving toward an unknown destination.
