• Lin Mo reported that Terra’s purchases from Great Xia had grown rapidly, reaching the equivalent of one month of Great Xia’s pre-catastrophe exports to Blue Star’s nations.
• Lin Mo explained that Terra’s races were buying basic industrial goods, which improved their production, healthcare, and quality of life.
• Lin Mo said Great Xia’s trade surplus remained large because it processed Terra’s raw materials into higher-value industrial goods.
• Elder Zhao said Terra’s shipments were essential to Great Xia’s projects and ordered the trade route kept stable.

Cho'Gath traded the coordinates of Blue Star and Kona Civilizations for resources to strengthen his demon body and prepare for an invasion of Terra. He ordered his forces to withdraw from Kona and attack Terra by a safer route, keeping Terra's coordinates hidden from the Demon God taking over Kona.

• Cho'Gath watched the two Demon Gods depart after completing their deal, which gave him Space-Jumping Beasts, Plasma Bugs, and dark marrow ore in exchange for the coordinates of Blue Star and Kona Civilizations.

• Cho'Gath ordered all Demon Clan forces in the Kona Star System to withdraw and prepare to invade Terra.
• A bone-winged Demon Venerable suggested opening a direct wormhole from Kona to Terra, but Yaxes warned that it would expose Terra's coordinates to the Demon God taking over Kona.

Cho'Gath withdrew his forces from the Kona Star System and gathered his army to launch a major invasion of Terra. Meanwhile, two other Demon Gods began their own invasions of Blue Star and the Kona Star System, threatening all three civilizations at once.

• Cho'Gath ordered his forces to retreat through the Kona planets to the sixth planet and then return to his transit domain.
• The Demon Clan evacuated the six occupied Kona planets, stripping them of resources as it went.
• Cho'Gath gathered his army and six Space-Jumping Beasts at the Seventeenth Transit Nest, where Yaxes told him that two other Demon Gods were beginning invasions of Blue Star and Kona.
• Cho'Gath activated the six Space-Jumping Beasts, opening wormholes to Terra and declaring that he would conquer it.
• An octopus-like Demon God opened eight wormholes for an invasion, while a sea-urchin-like Demon God entered the Kona Star System with its army and vowed to seize Cho'Gath's other civilizations.

Lin Mo and Long Zhan detected six deeply buried Demon Clan wormholes on Terra and ordered immediate strikes while warning the other races to prepare for battle. The chapter left the commercial district unaware of the impending invasion, as Kael, Fendona, Thorin, and Grom enjoyed milk tea.

• Lin Mo and Long Zhan learned that precision scans had located six underground anomalies between 512 and 987 meters deep.

• Kael, Fendona, Thorin, and Grom rode to the Fief Command Center and saw soldiers, armored vehicles, robots, and missiles preparing for war.
• Yadis landed at the Command Center, where Thorin complained that the Dragon had spoiled his milk tea.
• Lin Mo emerged from the Command Center with a grave expression.

Lin Mo told the leaders of Terra’s races that six Demon Clan wormholes had appeared deep underground on Terra and eight more had been detected on Blue Star. Great Xia began earth-penetrating strikes and dispatched unmanned combat groups carrying antimatter bombs, while the leaders prepared their people for war.

• Lin Mo informed Kael, Fendona, Thorin, Grom, and Yadis about the six underground wormholes on Terra and the eight detected on Blue Star.
• Lin Mo urged the leaders to alert their rulers, muster forces, secure key sites, prevent panic, and gather their seventh-order experts at Great Xia’s fief.
• The leaders passed the warning to their people using Great Xia phones and followed Lin Mo to the Command Center, where Yadis watched the feed from outside.
• Great Xia launched repeated earth-penetrating missile strikes at Zone One, collapsing rock layers, while Kael warned that the attacks had not yet reached the demons.
• Long Zhan learned that all six unmanned robot aerial landing groups carrying antimatter bombs were en route to the wormhole coordinates.

Great Xia bombarded a newly opened Demon Clan wormhole beneath Terra, striking Demon God Cho'Gath as he arrived. Cho'Gath ordered Burrowing Earth Dragons to spread the Demon Clan army through tunnels, leaving the underground invasion rapidly expanding.

• Lin Mo suggested using portals or missiles to reach the scattered targets, but Long Zhan explained the limits and ordered continuous Earth-Penetrating Bomb strikes.
• Demon God Cho'Gath emerged from a Main Wormhole beneath Terra as Yaxes sensed that Great Xia had discovered them.
• An Earth-Penetrating Missile broke through the cave roof and struck Cho'Gath, followed by repeated blasts that devastated lesser demons and threatened to collapse the wormhole.
• Cho'Gath shielded himself from the bombardment and ordered Burrowing Earth Dragons to dig sideways and spread the Demon Clan army.
• Burrowing Earth Dragons chewed through the rock in multiple directions as Demon Clan forces followed, forming a growing underground network.

Demon God Brett emerged from a deep underground wormhole on Blue Star and withstood repeated Earth-Penetrating Missile strikes. Tianshu Underground City identified the new Demon God, while Han Niba realized the Demon Clan had prepared a serious invasion and its full strength remained unknown.

• Yaxes and Cho'Gath planned to hide underground while the Burrowing Earth Dragons spread the exits, expecting the humans to be distracted.
• Brett and a swarm of demons emerged from a wormhole beneath Blue Star's equator, and Brett sensed the remains of an intelligent civilization.
• Earth-Penetrating Missiles collapsed the rock above Brett, but Brett shielded the demons and broke through to the surface.
• Brett withstood further missile attacks without moving and laughed that it liked prey that struggled.
• Tianshu Underground City's command staff spotted Brett on satellite imagery and confirmed a suspected Demon God-level presence.
• Han Niba warned that the Demon Clan had come prepared and worried that more Demon Gods might be on Blue Star.

Han Niba ordered the Pangu units deployed early against Brett, while Great Xia prepared Plan B in case the Antimatter Bomb attack failed. At Tianshu Underground City, a general sought volunteers for the certain-death mission, but no soldier stepped back when asked to withdraw.

• Han Niba canceled the optimal deployment window and ordered the Pangu formation to enter Zone One early while maintaining missile suppression.
• Ten Pangu units launched from a strategic transport plane and converged on Brett as command staff watched their approach.
• Han Niba explained that Plan B would send a soldier in a Pangu mecha to release an Antimatter Bomb close to the Demon God, bypassing its danger sense at the cost of the soldier's life.
• At Combat Readiness Military Camp Three, a general told more than a thousand assembled soldiers that the mission meant certain death and asked newly married soldiers without children to step back.
• No one moved when the general asked only sons to step back, and he challenged Liu Xi for failing to withdraw.

The general selected 120 soldiers for a mission against the Demon God Brett after none would withdraw. Brett evaded the Pangu units’ antimatter attack by burrowing underground, prompting Han Niba to initiate Plan B.

• Liu Xi and the other soldiers refused to withdraw, so the general ordered a random selection of 120 names and saluted the chosen men alongside the camp.
• Brett sensed the approaching Pangu units, then burrowed deep underground to evade their antimatter attack.
• Brett ordered the Burrowing Earth Dragons to dig tunnels and claim the underground territory beneath the planet.
• Han Niba watched the failed attack and ordered the communications staff officer to initiate Plan B.

Chen Yuan and nine other soldiers received Spatial Rings loaded with weapons and supplies for a mission to deliver Antimatter Bombs close to Demon Gods. After training to retrieve items instantly and boarding their Pangu Mechas, they learned the mission’s lethal requirements and were promised posthumous honors and support for their families.

• The general revealed that Great Xia had obtained ten Spatial Rings capable of concealing their contents from Demon Gods’ danger sense.
• Chen Yuan and nine other soldiers received rings containing Antimatter Bombs, nuclear warheads, and survival supplies, then practiced retrieving equipment from them.
• The general told the remaining 110 soldiers they were reserves who would take over if the first group failed or another Demon God-level target appeared.
• Chen Yuan boarded Pangu Unit Seven and linked his senses to its systems as the ten pilots prepared for the mission.
• The general ordered the pilots to release their bombs within one hundred meters of their targets, warned that Demon Gods could flee at immense speed, and promised honors and family support if the soldiers sacrificed themselves.

Chen Yuan prepared to attack Demon God Brett with the battlefield's only antimatter device as Blue Star Team One entered the interception zone. Brett resurfaced in the Equator Wasteland and flew toward an abandoned industrial belt, unaware that Great Xia's reconnaissance network had detected it.

• Chen Yuan and Zhou Li received orders to deploy as Blue Star Team One while the other teams stood by in their assigned locations.
• After ten hours in flight, Command reported that Brett had reappeared and ordered Chen Yuan to lead the attack while Zhou Li remained in reserve.
• Command told Chen Yuan that nine unmanned Pangu mecha would support him and that Unit Seven carried the battlefield's only antimatter device.
• Brett emerged from underground in the Equator Wasteland and scanned the surrounding region for signs of civilization.
• Brett flew toward an abandoned industrial belt, unaware that Great Xia's reconnaissance network had locked onto it.

Chen Yuan and nine unmanned Pangu mechas attacked Brett to keep the Demon God aboveground and create an opening for Chen Yuan to use the antimatter bomb stored in his Spatial Ring. Brett destroyed the mechas one by one as Number Seven continued closing in under AI control.

• Great Xia tracked Brett underground with seismic sensors but held its fire so it would not drive the Demon God back underground.
• Chen Yuan leaped from a Transport Plane in Number Seven Pangu as nine unmanned units formed an aerial encirclement around Brett.
• Brett shrugged off the mechas’ ranged attacks, then accelerated to 2,500 meters per second and smashed the first Pangu into a hillside.
• The unmanned Pangu units used close-range attacks to steer Brett’s movements and gather predictions, but Brett knocked several more out of battle.
• Chen Yuan resisted Brett’s domain and watched Number Seven approach while preparing to open his Spatial Ring and retrieve the antimatter bomb.
• Only three mechas remained as Brett continued its attacks.

Chen Yuan sacrificed himself to detonate an antimatter device and kill Demon God Brett above the wasteland. Celestial Pivot City's Command Center confirmed Brett’s death, saluted Chen Yuan, and continued its plans to clear the remaining wormholes while asking about Terra.

• Chen Yuan opened Pangu Seven’s cockpit and exposed himself to draw Brett close, then released Unit Seven’s antimatter device.
• Brett tried to brake and retreat, but the device detonated and engulfed Brett, Chen Yuan, and Pangu Seven in white light.
• Han Niba ordered the Command Center to verify the target’s status using satellites, drones, and seismic nodes.
• The Command Center confirmed that Demon God Brett was dead, and Han Niba led the staff in saluting Chen Yuan.
• Han Niba ordered the campaign against the remaining seven wormholes to continue, warned of possible seventh-order Demon Venerables, and asked his adjutant about Terra.

Long Zhan and Lin Mo sent mixed teams to close Terra’s six Demon Clan wormholes, and the first five teams succeeded without encountering a Demon God. As the sixth team reached the final wormhole, a seventh-order mage sensed a terrifying presence in the darkness.

• Long Zhan learned that Earth-Penetrating Bombs were nearly exhausted and ordered the experts to proceed with the wormhole operation.
• A report arrived that Celestial Pivot City had killed a Demon God using Plan B, prompting Long Zhan to urge Terra’s teams to destroy their targets quickly.
• At wormhole Number One, the Allied Army fought through the underground demons while a Holy Human Race mage analyzed and closed the wormhole.
• The teams closed wormholes Numbers Two through Five without meeting a Demon God.
• As Team Six reached the final target, a seventh-order mage sensed a terrifying will and warned that the Demon God was there.

Cho'Gath abandoned Terra's final Space Wormhole rather than risk another Antimatter Bomb, and eighteen Seventh-Order Experts closed it after defeating the demons left behind. Terra began sealing and monitoring the underground tunnels, while the war on Blue Star continued.

• Cho'Gath sensed the approaching Terra experts and the Pangu carrying an Antimatter Bomb, then ordered Yaxes and the other Demon Venerables to retreat through the wormhole.
• Cho'Gath ordered the demon horde to scatter and hide underground before he and his subordinates escaped through the wormhole.
• Three Seventh-Order Experts detected that the Demon God and Demon Venerables had vanished and waited for reinforcements rather than approaching the cavern.
• Five dragons brought the other Terra experts to the battlefield, gathering eighteen Seventh-Order Experts to clear the demon horde and close the final wormhole.
• Long Zhan ordered the races to seal the six underground combat zones and monitor Burrowing Earth Dragon tunnels, beginning a long-running demon-hunting campaign.

Han Niba sent Terra’s experts and Pangu mechas to destroy Blue Star’s final wormhole, where they found six Demon Venerables. The battle plan isolated the demons, and fifteen mechas detonated around three of them as the remaining fight continued.

• Han Niba asked Lin Mo for Terra’s Seventh-Order Experts and Earth Elves to help clear Blue Star’s underground wormholes.
• The two squads destroyed seven wormholes, then discovered six Demon Venerables guarding the last one.
• Han Niba gathered both squads and seventy Pangu mechas, ordering Terra’s experts to draw off three Demon Venerables while mechas trapped the other three.
• The Earth Elves opened a canyon to the demons, and the battle split into separate fights above the wasteland.
• Fifteen damaged Pangu mechas restrained the three targeted Demon Venerables, and Han Niba ordered them to detonate.
