Chapter Summaries

Qin Feng found that his alchemy grand authority could not overcome his lack of skill, and planned to use the time minor authority and his Primordial pet’s abilities to help with crafting. After making several fate predictions and using Luck Deviation, he waited for Balance Unicorn · Sacred Sterling to hatch.

• Qin Feng discovered that crafting high-grade items required alchemy knowledge, quick reactions, and more divinity than he currently had.
• Qin Feng decided to challenge the time minor authority to slow time during alchemy, and considered how the balance grand authority might help control elemental reactions.
• Qin Feng used the fate minor authority and Luck Deviation to predict that Balance Unicorn · Sacred Sterling would hatch with abilities related to alchemy and element balance.
• Qin Feng spent a full bar of divinity on his prediction for the pet to gain four alchemy-related random abilities.
• Two and a half hours later, Balance Unicorn · Sacred Sterling hatched.

Qin Feng used a miniature star to hatch the primordial pet Balance Unicorn · Sacred Sterling, who retained his memories and possessed powerful abilities, including the racial talent Balanced Scales. Qin Feng examined the pet’s panel and scrolled down to its four random abilities, where the chapter ended before revealing them.

• Qin Feng maintained a steady miniature star to accelerate the golden primordial pet egg’s hatching.
• Balance Unicorn · Sacred Sterling hatched as a juvenile two-headed unicorn and retained his memories as a primordial being.
• Qin Feng checked the pet’s attributes and found that he could inherit part of Qin Feng’s four-dimensional attributes and class traits.
• Qin Feng examined Balanced Scales, which balanced three combat attributes between a designated target and himself, and considered its counters and potential use against powerful enemies.
• Qin Feng reviewed the unicorn’s other primordial abilities, then reached the four random abilities at the bottom of the panel.

Qin Feng discovered that the Balance Unicorn’s three alchemy support abilities greatly reduced material use and made difficult elemental reactions easier to complete. After the newly hatched Balance Unicorn, Sacred Sterling, rapidly gained levels, it was baffled that three of its abilities supported alchemy rather than combat.

• Qin Feng realized the Balance Unicorn could reduce alchemy material consumption by 77%, letting him refine far more items from his scarce Primordial materials.
• Qin Feng learned that the unicorn’s other abilities allowed greater margins of error and longer reaction times, with both effects improving as it leveled up.
• Qin Feng calculated that every 100 levels would add 100% to the permitted margin of error and extend reaction time by 1,000%.
• Qin Feng’s deployed Balance Unicorn gained experience from the Soul Projection Legion and rose from level 1 to level 40 within minutes.
• Sacred Sterling checked its abilities and stared at Qin Feng, bewildered that three of its four random abilities were alchemy support skills.

• Sacred Sterling questioned Qin Feng about influencing the Balance Unicorn’s random abilities, and Qin Feng confirmed that he had turned three into alchemy support abilities.
• Sacred Sterling explained that his fourth ability could greatly boost weakness damage, but Qin Feng said alchemy and Origin Divine Stones could improve his equipment, bloodline, and skills more.
• Qin Feng found that the Balance Unicorn’s Primordial Sacred Scales template could not yet be replicated for his other pets because Blessing Judgment required too much divinity.
• Qin Feng reached level 250 and planned to challenge the fourth holder of a judgment high minor authority before returning to the Divine Ox Fierce Hunter, whose egg had reached 85% hatching progress.
• Qin Feng arrived at the Judgment Temple to begin the challenge.

• Inaros opened his mismatched black-and-white eyes and addressed Qin Feng as Dark Shadow.
• Qin Feng asked Inaros what challenge he had set.

Qin Feng learned that Inaros required sinners to punish or good people to reward for the first phase of his submission challenge, then returned to Blue Star to find candidates. He began screening players by their justice and sin values, starting with an evil player in the former Great Cold Country.

• Inaros told Qin Feng to bring him sinners or good people, and the system gave Qin Feng 3.14 hours and up to 300 chances to find 100 who qualified.

Busan had grown into a crowded metropolis managed by Gray Rose and Chu Yan, where status depended on players’ ties to Qin Feng and Great Xia. When Lee Gi-hwan returned to the city, an inspection uncovered a demon corpse in his Storage Backpack.

• Busan became a major hub for diplomatic outposts as Great Xia ran out of room for civilizations from other Blueprint Worlds.
• Gray Rose led Busan’s administration with Chu Yan as her deputy, while Great Xia players and Qin Feng’s allies ranked above local Great Cold Country players and other outsiders.
• Lee Gi-hwan grew gloomy amid Busan’s social pecking order and returned through the Teleportation Array wearing a hood and an Epic Grade mage robe.
• A Great Xia inspector found a demon corpse in Lee Gi-hwan’s Storage Backpack and asked him to register it.

Lee Gi-hwan returned to his Busan home with a Legendary Tier Raspy Howler and revealed that he kept and tortured self-aware female demon bosses in his basement. After examining Lee Gi-hwan’s memories, Qin Feng appeared and threw him the teleportation item Inaros had given him, intending to take him away.

• Lee Gi-hwan registered the Raspy Howler’s corpse and returned to his heavily protected villa in Busan.
• Lee Gi-hwan awakened the Raspy Howler from feigned death and approached it with torture instruments.
• The Raspy Howler saw other female demon bosses in the basement and realized Lee Gi-hwan meant to torture it.
• Qin Feng examined Lee Gi-hwan’s memories and learned he had been torturing the demon bosses for hours each day.
• Qin Feng appeared in the basement, threw Lee Gi-hwan Inaros’s teleportation item, and said he had come to take him away.

Inaros transported Qin Feng and Lee Gi-hwan to a special airless space, where he refined Lee Gi-hwan by filling his soul with fabricated memories of the torment he had inflicted on demons. Qin Feng learned that Inaros’s evil grand authority gained power from refining evildoers, but Inaros said he was interested in anyone who caught his attention.

• Inaros’s Teleportation Stone transported Lee Gi-hwan and Qin Feng to a special space without air.
• Lee Gi-hwan recognized Qin Feng as Dark Shadow and saw the bald Inaros watching him.
• Inaros seized Lee Gi-hwan with his evil grand authority and injected him with fabricated memories of demons torturing him.
• Lee Gi-hwan’s body dissipated, and Inaros condensed his soul into a black bead and pocketed it.
• Qin Feng noticed that Inaros’s evil grand authority had gained a small amount of base divinity limit and asked what kind of sinner interested him.
• Inaros told Qin Feng that anyone who interested him would do.

Qin Feng searched across Blue Star and nearby worlds for distinct sinners to satisfy Inaros’s challenge, discovering that the bald man’s conditions required different kinds of psychopaths. As he rapidly neared the target of one hundred, Qin Feng considered whether Inaros’s possible cycle high minor authority could make him a tool for turning back time.

• Qin Feng returned to Blue Star after learning that Lee Gi-hwan had counted toward the challenge.
• Qin Feng discovered that Master Tuchal had abducted and cruelly sacrificed children to an Evil God Statue, then sent him to the Judgment Tower and raised his progress to [2/100].
• Qin Feng found that repeating the same kind of sinner did not increase his challenge progress, so he searched for distinct kinds of psychopaths.
• Qin Feng suspected Inaros possessed a cycle high minor authority and considered subduing him as a way to turn back time without dying himself.
• Qin Feng expanded his search across Blue Star’s Blueprint Worlds and the Blue Star System, rapidly sending sinners to Inaros and astonishing him.

Qin Feng completed Inaros's sinner-screening challenge and chose to fight him with ten-thousandfold attributes, but then used the Projection Grand Authority to seize control of Inaros's blade light. Inaros's attack turned against him as Qin Feng scattered the millions of blades.

• Qin Feng delivered more than a hundred sinners to Inaros, completing the first stage of the challenge.
• Inaros required Qin Feng to defeat him within 31.4 hours and offered challenges using hundredfold or ten-thousandfold attributes.
• Qin Feng chose the ten-thousandfold challenge, raising Inaros's Four-Dimensional Attributes from Tier 13 to Tier 17 and multiplying his blade light.
• Qin Feng activated the Projection Grand Authority and overwhelmed Inaros's control of the blade light.
• Qin Feng scattered Inaros's millions of blades outward, claiming the blade light as his own.

Qin Feng used the Projection Grand Authority to seize Inaros's blade lights and deduced that Inaros's Cycle High Minor Authority could rewind the Godforsaken Game. Realizing he could retain his memories through the cycles, Qin Feng decided to test rerolling the Balance Unicorn's alchemy abilities before killing Inaros.

• Inaros's blade lights scattered beyond his control when Qin Feng's influence overwhelmed his own.
• Qin Feng investigated Inaros's class trait and reasoned that the 31.4-hour challenge limit matched the recovery time of Cycle Divine Power.
• Qin Feng concluded that Inaros could exploit repeated cycles to evade permanent death, but Qin Feng's own Cycle High Minor Authority would let him remember each rewind and kill Inaros before the power recovered.
• Qin Feng considered triggering a rewind before the Balance Unicorn hatched so he could reroll its alchemy abilities for a possible fourth helpful ability.
• Qin Feng seized Inaros's black-and-white blade lights and sent them back in a lethal attack, while Inaros trusted his defenses to withstand them.

Qin Feng overwhelmed Inaros with millions of black-and-white blade lights, but Inaros used Right Thought Return and Karmic Retribution to absorb and reflect the attacks. Qin Feng’s Chaos Domain nullified the reflected damage, and he discovered that Right Thought Return’s durability reduced incoming damage by halving its order of magnitude.

• Inaros fled at tremendous speed, but Qin Feng used Dance of Dark Shadow to keep pursuing him through the dark parts of the space.
• Inaros spread the white areas to limit Qin Feng’s movement, but the blade lights filled his escape routes and struck him.

• Qin Feng’s Chaos Domain redirected the reflected damage away from him, while Inaros wondered how Qin Feng’s divinity influence could be so powerful.
• Qin Feng analyzed the falling progress bar of Right Thought Return and discovered that it reduced damage according to a square-root-like formula.

Qin Feng killed Inaros, triggering the cycle ability that rewound the world by 31.4 hours. He used the reset to hatch the Balance Unicorn with four alchemy support abilities, then set out to subdue Inaros before his cycle power recovered.

• Qin Feng used the secret-peering grand authority to learn that Right Thought Return converted absorbed damage into justice ideals that boosted attributes.
• Qin Feng destroyed Inaros's Right Thought Return with Deathblade Rift and killed him, triggering Inaros's cycle high minor authority.

• Qin Feng discovered the unicorn had gained a new alchemy ability that could multiply finished products, greatly increasing his potential Origin Divine Stone output.
• Qin Feng decided to find and subdue Inaros before his cycle divine power recovered, while Inaros wondered how Qin Feng had killed him so easily.

Qin Feng defeated Inaros so decisively that Inaros’s confidence collapsed, then arrived in Judgment Space more than twenty hours earlier than Inaros expected. Qin Feng offered Inaros three Origin Divine Stones in exchange for his submission, and Inaros recognized Qin Feng’s pet as the Primordial Unicorn that served Aixilia.

• Qin Feng’s Deathblade Rift shattered Inaros’s defenses and killed him despite his ten-thousandfold attributes.
• Inaros reasoned that Qin Feng might lack the Cycle High Minor Authority and resolved to manipulate the timing of his death to make Qin Feng fail the trial.
• Qin Feng appeared in Inaros’s Judgment Space more than twenty hours earlier than Inaros expected, suggesting that Qin Feng possessed the Cycle High Minor Authority.
• Qin Feng said Inaros’s cycle reversion had rerolled an ability for his Primordial pet and offered him three Origin Divine Stones if he submitted.
• Inaros recognized Qin Feng’s Balance Unicorn as the Primordial Unicorn that served as Aixilia’s mount and wondered how it had become Qin Feng’s pet.

Qin Feng revealed that he had enough Primordial materials to refine hundreds of Origin Divine Stones, astonishing bald Inaros and the Balance Unicorn. After recognizing Qin Feng’s power and the value of his offer, Inaros submitted, and Qin Feng prepared to undertake the challenge before testing his alchemy.

• The Balance Unicorn objected to Qin Feng giving away three Origin Divine Stones, and Qin Feng said he could refine a hundred or two with his stock of Primordial materials.
• Bald Inaros and the Balance Unicorn were shocked by Qin Feng’s claims, while the unicorn realized both men possessed cycle high minor authority and Judgment-series authorities.
• The Balance Unicorn reflected that Qin Feng had never challenged the Goddess of the Balance’s Cycle Buff and recognized that the Balance series held less importance for him than higher-level grand authorities.
• Bald Inaros knelt and submitted to Qin Feng, expecting to receive three Origin Divine Stones.
• Qin Feng began the steps to undertake the challenge and planned to test refining Origin Divine Stones afterward.

Qin Feng completed his judgment quest against bald Inaros, gained another judgment authority, and spent five days studying alchemy while his divinity limit grew. He shared Inaros's justice and evil grand authorities, then prepared to challenge for the time minor authority to help him refine an Origin Divine Stone.

• Qin Feng sent the identified sinners to bald Inaros, completed the first quest phase in three minutes, and killed Inaros again to succeed in the judgment challenge.
• Qin Feng gained another judgment high minor authority, halving Blessing Judgment's cooldown, and discovered he could sense and take Inaros's cycle high minor authority but chose to leave it for later.

• Qin Feng's normal divinity limit exceeded 900 billion, and he shared Inaros's justice and evil grand authorities, gaining Right Thought Return and Karmic Retribution.

Qin Feng shared the justice, evil, and voiceprint grand authorities with Xuedai, bringing his total to 49 and increasing his divine source star sand absorption rate. With his divinity limit high enough, he prepared to unlock his twenty-fifth primordial talent.

• Qin Feng assessed how Right Thought Return and Karmic Retribution could make him nearly invincible against ordinary attacks, while noting Chaos Domain could still stop special attacks from hitting.
• Qin Feng reached a divinity limit of 1.35 trillion, bringing his total to 49 grand authorities and allowing him to share another one.
• Qin Feng visited Xuedai in the Twelfth Heaven, where she excitedly told him about her recent progress before he asked her to quiet down.
• Qin Feng used Blessing Judgment to share the justice, evil, and voiceprint grand authorities with Xuedai.
• Qin Feng's divine source star sand absorption rate rose from 247 times to 270 times, and voiceprint gave him another way to attack at a distance.
• Qin Feng opened the grand authority list to unlock his twenty-fifth primordial talent.

Qin Feng created the Alchemy Demon Primordial Talent, gaining automated alchemy and a stacking attribute boost from using his own alchemical products. He entered the Alchemy Land and found its Alchemy Spirits could craft ordinary items, though not top-tier products such as Origin Divine Stones.

• Qin Feng spent over 800 billion divinity to create his twenty-fifth Primordial Talent, choosing the Alchemy Grand Authority as its foundation.
• Qin Feng discovered that Alchemy Demon provided automated alchemy instead of the success-rate increase he had expected, and decided the talent was still useful.
