Ch. 2201Advancement, transformation, primordial!

Qin Feng upgraded the Void Spirit Walker bloodline to primordial, hoping it would reduce his energy consumption in the Source of Chaos’s final challenge, but its new abilities were unrelated to that goal. He began a carefully timed reroll plan by killing Inaros just before the Origin Divine Stone result would become fixed.

  • Qin Feng judged the Void Spirit Walker bloodline’s existing abilities disappointing and decided to upgrade it with an Origin Divine Stone.
  • Qin Feng used Fate Prediction and Luck Deviation to improve the odds that the primordial upgrade would reduce his energy consumption in the void.
  • Qin Feng planned to use reversions near the 31.4-hour limit, varying his timing to prevent Long Night’s faction from interfering.
  • Qin Feng upgraded the Void Spirit Walker bloodline to primordial, but its three new abilities focused on combat rather than reducing energy use.
  • Qin Feng waited 31.4 hours, then killed the bald Inaros with Deathblade Rift just before the upgrade result was due to become fixed.

Ch. 2202Void Silence, Void Shadow Concealment!

Qin Feng repeatedly reverted time while using the Origin Divine Stone on the Void Spirit Walker Bloodline until it advanced to Primordial. The advancement produced powerful skills, including Void Silence, while the chapter ended before the third new skill’s effect was revealed.

  • Qin Feng repeatedly reverted the worldline and used the Origin Divine Stone on the Void Spirit Walker Bloodline, with Bald Head Inaros dying in each cycle.
  • After Bald Head Inaros was killed for the 21st time, Qin Feng’s next attempt successfully advanced the bloodline to Primordial.
  • Qin Feng discovered that the upgraded bloodline greatly increased the damage bonus from void spirit energy and improved its existing skills.
  • Qin Feng tested Void Silence and found that it reduced the costs of skills and equipment effects, including divinity, by 93% while he moved through the void.
  • Qin Feng found that Void Shadow Concealment let him fill his void spirit energy almost instantly, then focused on a third new skill whose effect had not yet been shown.

Ch. 2203Void Silence! Not a Trace Left Behind!

Qin Feng learned how Void Silence could conceal his movements and attacks in the void, and decided to keep the skill for its usefulness in the Source of Chaos's Final Challenge and against information leaks. While waiting before challenging for the Time Minor Authority, he began hunting hostile players and high-tier bosses to bring the Soul Grand Authority close to its final stage.

  • Qin Feng examined Void Silence, which erased traces left in the void and greatly increased the divinity influence of information-processing abilities there.
  • Qin Feng chose to keep Void Silence and delayed entering the Source of Chaos's Final Challenge because he still lacked confidence.
  • Qin Feng traveled between the First and Twelfth Heavens to hunt high-tier bosses and hostile-temple players, seeking to raise the Soul Grand Authority from 976,542 base divinity toward its one-million limit.
  • Qin Feng decided to wait 31.4 hours before visiting the Time Temple for its Minor Authority Challenge, wary of the Cycle High Minor Authority and the Time Temple's hidden experts.

Ch. 2204Insight! Symbiosis!

Qin Feng used the repeated worldline reversions to identify the Insight and Symbiosis Grand Authority Successors as likely connected to the cycle high minor authority and Long Night. He continued farming soul projections while watching for their next move, then prepared to challenge the time minor authority and the soul grand authority.

  • Qin Feng killed demon bosses and hostile players for over 31.4 hours, then observed the Godforsaken Game revert three seconds after he obtained Void Stillness and Void Silence.
  • Qin Feng spotted the oath lines of the Insight Temple and Symbiosis Temple shift at the same time shortly before the reversion, suggesting two Grand Authority Successors had moved together.
  • Qin Feng concluded the Insight and Symbiosis successors were likely linked to the cycle high minor authority and Long Night, and estimated that they needed about three seconds to activate Universal Cycle.
  • Qin Feng watched both temples while continuing to farm soul projections through the voiceprint grand authority, but neither temple moved again.
  • Qin Feng raised the soul grand authority's base divinity limit to over 998,000 and decided to challenge the time minor authority before attempting the soul grand authority's final challenge.

Ch. 2205Clock Nebula! Starlight Passage!

Qin Feng disguised himself and entered the Time Temple to challenge the Time Minor Authority, observing the vast Clock Nebula and its players as he queued. He discovered that time flowed at changing rates along the starlight passage, leaving him to investigate the unusual temporal effects.

  • Qin Feng disguised himself as an unremarkable Highest Heaven player and arrived at the Time Temple to join the Time Minor Authority Challenge queue.
  • Qin Feng learned about the Time Temple’s Clock Nebula, its Time Docks, and the Old-Day Battlefields they served.
  • Qin Feng used a new codename and avoided expanding his Shadow Perception while waiting among cautious players from many civilizations and races.
  • Qin Feng noticed that time flowed differently in the queue than outside and that its rate kept changing.
  • Qin Feng saw through his Soul Projection Legion that an assassin’s dart took several hours to reach its target from his perspective.

Ch. 2206Time Clock! Alchemy Begins!

Qin Feng gained the time minor authority and used it to slow time around the Demon's Hand while beginning an Origin Divine Stone refinement. After arranging for further attempts to continue while he was away, he reached the one-million base divinity limit and prepared to face the soul grand authority’s ultimate challenge.

  • Qin Feng completed the time minor authority challenge by perceiving changing time flow rates and gained the Time Clock.
  • Qin Feng considered how the time minor authority worked and concluded that faster-than-light movement came from rewriting the universe’s rules, not changing his personal time flow.
  • Qin Feng returned to Alchemy Land, applied four divine-tier alchemy support abilities, and slowed time in the Demon's Hand’s operating area to one-twentieth speed.
  • Qin Feng used Demon's Hand to begin refining an Origin Divine Stone with over a hundred primordial materials, then left additional materials for more attempts if the first succeeded.
  • Qin Feng instructed the Alchemy Spirit to oversee the refining and reached a base divinity limit of one million, allowing him to begin the soul grand authority’s ultimate challenge.

Ch. 2207Soul Land! Soul Cocoons!

Qin Feng entered Soul Land to investigate the Soul Grand Authority’s exclusive space and discovered that it had become a temporal turbulence zone filled with mysterious Soul Cocoons. After finding no explanation for the cocoons, he decided to attempt the Grand Authority’s final challenge.

  • Qin Feng entered Soul Land and used the Time Minor Authority to stabilize the chaotic time flow in a small area around himself.
  • Qin Feng explored the funnel-shaped space and found enormous regions filled with motionless cocoons made of soul energy.
  • Qin Feng discovered that Soul Land formed a vast web-like lattice and used Soul Attacks to break into sealed spaces containing even more Soul Cocoons.
  • Qin Feng concluded that the Bewitching Little Demon had not created the cocoons, since she could not have broken the barriers around the sealed spaces.
  • Qin Feng found no Primordial beings or clues about the cocoons and decided to attempt the Soul Grand Authority’s final challenge.

Ch. 2208Would His Highness Dark Shadow Be the Final Arbiter?

Qin Feng visited the Soul Shrine and asked its Primordial guardian, Ye Misi, about the Soul Cocoons and Bewitching Little Demon, but the Primordial Agreement kept her from answering. He entered the soul grand authority’s final challenge, which placed him in a familiar version of River-Sea City from decades before the Godforsaken Game descended.

  • Qin Feng arrived at the Soul Shrine and met Ye Misi, who knelt and greeted him as the Great Emperor.
  • Qin Feng asked Ye Misi whether she had met Bewitching Little Demon and what the Soul Cocoons were, but she could not reveal the answers because of the Primordial Agreement.
  • Qin Feng asked Ye Misi to arrange the final challenge so he could fully master the soul grand authority.
  • Ye Misi opened the Soul Gate, and Qin Feng entered the site of the final challenge.
  • Qin Feng found himself in an old version of River-Sea City, which looked as it had more than twenty years before the Godforsaken Game descended.

Ch. 2209The observation phase! The Soul Net!

Qin Feng entered the final challenge of the soul grand authority and found himself observing a preserved scene from River-Sea City’s past. He began studying the soul nets surrounding living beings, seeking to understand how they changed over time.

  • Qin Feng realized the Godforsaken Game had recreated a past scene from its database, and he could observe it but not affect it.
  • Qin Feng visited his childhood home and saw his younger self doing homework, surrounded by soul energy resembling a Soul Cocoon.
  • Qin Feng observed a hospital and recognized the newborn Qin Xiaoyou, born when he was five, alongside his adoptive parents and Qin Wuyue.
  • Qin Feng noticed that newborns shared unusually pure, similar soul nets, while the nets of older people and other living beings differed in shape.
  • Qin Feng decided to record how soul nets changed across babies, adults, elderly people, and animals, using his omniscient high minor authority.

Ch. 2210Eighteen years of observation! Predicting souls!

Over eighteen years, Qin Feng observed how environments, events, and physical traits shaped living beings’ soul nets, then used the omniscient high minor authority to learn to predict their behavior. When the Godforsaken Game descended, a new system began assigning him targets whose next actions he had to predict, and he realized the Soul Cocoons held valuable data for doing so.

  • Qin Feng observed Qin Xiaoyou and others in River-Sea City, discovering that soul nets changed in response to experiences and that physical traits filtered those effects.
  • Qin Feng concluded that soul nets represented a living being’s current state and could help predict future behavior, though their changes were too complex to trace back to specific past events.
  • Qin Feng observed humans, animals, and plants for years, finding that soul nets changed in all living beings and that events influenced them less as they aged.
  • After ten years, Qin Feng began predicting soul-net changes with the omniscient high minor authority and gradually eliminated incorrect calculation methods.
  • When the Godforsaken Game descended after eighteen years, a new system began giving Qin Feng targets and requiring him to predict their next actions.
  • Qin Feng realized that the Soul Cocoons in the Soul Land contained soul data that could be used to predict the behavior of the beings they represented.

Ch. 2211Please predict!

Qin Feng reflected on how Qin Wuyue’s erased existence had shaped later cycles and began his first prediction task: determining which class Tang Yiguo, known as Gui Ling, would choose. His model gave two possible outcomes, Assassin or a random class, and he realized that missing information about her thoughts and memory decay prevented a precise prediction.

  • Qin Feng set aside thoughts of the Soul Cocoons and considered the first descent of the Godforsaken Game, when the Land of Order had no ascended civilizations.
  • Qin Feng concluded that Qin Wuyue had existed in the first lifetime, but the game later erased memories of her while leaving her influence on people’s souls.
  • Qin Feng recalled that he had observed Blue Star’s people for eighteen years and learned that Wang Meng’s adventurous nature had led him to choose a random class and become a Holy Shield Warrior.
  • Qin Feng received a task asking him to predict which class player Tang Yiguo would choose, and recognized her as Gui Ling.
  • Qin Feng’s model predicted that Gui Ling might choose Assassin to pursue revenge for her parents or choose a random class in hopes of greater potential.
  • Qin Feng realized his prediction was uncertain because he lacked information about Gui Ling’s current thoughts and memory decay.

Ch. 2212Essentially a noob-stomping class?

Qin Feng used the soul grand authority to predict choices and behavior in the worldline of his first life, discovering that he had originally chosen the Dark Shadow class. As he continued the challenge, he watched his past unfold and tested how accurately he could predict people.

  • Qin Feng predicted that Gui Ling would choose a random class, and she did.
  • Qin Feng predicted that his first-life self would choose a random class, and watched him receive Dark Shadow.
  • Qin Feng considered how Dark Shadow was weak in early PVE and could become ineffective against evenly matched opponents.
  • Qin Feng observed that Qin Wuyue and Qin Xiaoyou had not entered the game when it descended because they were at work and school.
  • Qin Feng continued predicting players' actions and found that he had gotten two of his first twenty predictions wrong.

Ch. 2213Shifting cycles! The one-in-ten-thousand variable!

Qin Feng observed the first cycle and discovered that repeated cycles subtly changed every player's Soul Net, causing enormous differences over time. He also learned that first-cycle players were weak, including his own Dark Shadow self, whose story ended as an above-average fighter known for powerful assassinations but prone to dying against bosses.

  • Qin Feng made predictions for years, observing players, NPCs, and Epic Grade bosses while finding that many familiar powerhouses and bosses were absent from the first cycle.
  • Qin Feng noticed that when players died, their Soul Nets in the Land of Hope changed by roughly one ten-thousandth, subtly altering their choices in later cycles.
  • Qin Feng realized that these minute changes accumulated across players and cycles, creating enormous differences across Blue Star.
  • Qin Feng found that first-cycle players could not meet the requirements for Eldritch God Cycle Buff Challenges, and he could not explain why everyone seemed so weak.
  • Qin Feng discovered that his first-cycle Dark Shadow self performed well in team damage and wilderness assassinations but often died to bosses' area attacks.

Ch. 2214Half a century of observation! The final settlement!

Qin Feng discovered that repeated cycles increased players’ ability to adapt to the Godforsaken Game, though each person had a limit. After observing five civilizations and completing fifty years of observation, he received the Soul Grand Authority’s final settlement.

  • Qin Feng found that players’ Soul Nets changed with each death, strengthening their ability to understand and adapt to the Godforsaken Game in proportion to their survival, battles, and adaptability.
  • Qin Feng finished observing Blue Star’s first cycle, predicted player behavior with 91% accuracy, and watched Blue Star fall when Demons overwhelmed it in the tenth year.
  • After the cycle restarted, Qin Feng’s Soul Net had improved by seven percent, more than anyone else on Blue Star.
  • Qin Feng’s perspective shifted to the Fairy World, where he observed Fairy Yuan and found its inhabitants developed combat strength faster than Blue Star’s players.
  • Qin Feng observed the Deep Blue Civilization, the Angel Civilization, and the Antler Civilization, confirming that adaptability gained across cycles had an upper limit and raising his prediction accuracy to 93%.
  • After fifty years of observation, Qin Feng received the Soul Grand Authority’s final settlement.

Ch. 2215The carving and shaping of souls!

Qin Feng mastered the Soul Grand Authority's final stage, gaining the ability to predict significant actions and carve or create Soul Origins. He considered shaping a new Soul Origin after copying an existing being, but the chapter left unanswered what such a creation would be.

  • Qin Feng learned that the Soul Grand Authority's final challenge required a 70% overall prediction success rate and had no stated failure condition.
  • Qin Feng discovered that he could observe Soul Origins and predict targets' significant decisions with perfect accuracy, including those of many Primordial beings.
  • Qin Feng learned that he could carve Soul Origins, but the immense divinity cost made the ability difficult to use on hostile targets.
  • Qin Feng realized he could repair or reshape allies' souls and create souls with preset behavioral logic.
  • Qin Feng wondered what kind of being he could create by copying an existing Soul Origin and shaping a new one.

Ch. 2216Unbelievable! Qin Xiaoyou Number Two?

Qin Feng tested whether the Soul Grand Authority could duplicate a person by creating a second Qin Xiaoyou. He discovered that the two bodies shared one mind and soul, while the attempt to make a slightly different third body exhausted his Divinity Limit.

  • Qin Feng realized he could shape bodies and souls, though he decided to use the ability cautiously because it could create exact copies of people.
  • Qin Feng recorded the information in the Soul Cocoons but found no record of Yue Shangyan's soul origin.
  • Qin Feng removed Qin Xiaoyou from the Darkness Region, restrained her, and used the Soul and Growth Grand Authorities to create a level 10 duplicate.
  • Qin Feng discovered that the original Qin Xiaoyou and Qin Xiaoyou Number Two shared one mind, memories, sensations, and soul across two bodies.
  • Qin Feng tried to create Qin Xiaoyou Number Three with a soul origin altered by one percent, but the difference corrected itself and reduced his Divinity Limit to zero.

Ch. 2217Here already? The Splitting Mind Grand Authority!

Qin Feng tested the Soul Grand Authority’s ability to create substitutes and compared it with Substitute and Splitting Mind authorities. Back in Dark Shadow City, he spotted four Late Night, Light Rains and realized she had likely obtained the Splitting Mind Grand Authority.

  • Qin Feng concluded that his Soul Grand Authority could create substitutes but would consume too much Divinity Limit to create a useful Splitting Mind Body.
  • Qin Feng killed the duplicate Qin Xiaoyou and found that Judgment gave him no gains because she shared the original’s Soul Origin and body.
  • Qin Feng threw Qin Xiaoyou back, refusing to let her out because he expected her to cause trouble.
  • Qin Feng used Shadow Perception in Dark Shadow City and saw four identical Late Night, Light Rains among the Great Xia Officials’ players.
  • Qin Feng inferred that Late Night, Light Rain had challenged and obtained the Splitting Mind Grand Authority.

Ch. 2218You're all talk!

Late Night, Light Rain received the Splitting Mind Grand Authority and became four bodies with distinct personalities, prompting Qin Feng to reconsider the nature of split minds and the possibility of reviving people from Blue Star’s past. The chapter ended with the four explaining that they all shared one private-message window.

  • Gu Yixue and the others examined Late Night, Light Rain’s four bodies as she explained that her personalities were Little Wan, Little Ye, Little Wei, and Little Yu.
  • Qin Feng observed differences between the four soul origins and wondered whether the Split-Mind Authority separated people with split personalities into distinct individuals.
  • Qin Feng considered using the Soul and Growth Grand Authorities to resurrect people who had died during Blue Star’s history, though he had only seen its first cycle.
  • White Bud teased Qin Feng about Late Night, Light Rain’s four bodies, and Qin Feng offered to help White Bud regain a body so she could visit her home.
  • Qin Feng joined the group in Dark Shadow City, where Late Night, Light Rain explained that all four received his private messages and that any of them could reply through the same account.

Ch. 2219Inner Divine Realm! Goals for a New Stage!

Qin Feng strengthened his resurrection safeguards and decided to seek an Inner Divine Realm challenge before visiting Yue Shangyan in the Mirror World. Confident in his strength and new ways to evade detection, he headed for the Heavens below the Twentieth Heaven to open a challenge entrance.

  • Late Night, Light Rain told everyone that splitting into four had stopped her Old Master from pressuring her to find a partner.
  • Qin Feng returned to the Judgment Grounds and considered how Extreme Love Paradise and the Tree Heart Divine Fluid could resurrect him using Soul Origins created while he was alive.
  • Qin Feng tried to create an additional Soul Origin for himself with the soul Grand Authority, but his Divinity Limit was too low.
  • Qin Feng decided to find an Inner Divine Realm challenge before visiting Yue Shangyan in the Mirror World, since the challenge seemed far more achievable than the final Chaos Source challenge.
  • Qin Feng planned to use the Abyss or the Void to evade the thousand eyes Grand Authority’s Sentry Eyes while searching the Heavens below the Twentieth Heaven for a challenge entrance.

Ch. 2220With the coordinates known, just unleash the damage!

Qin Feng searched the higher heavens for World God Tier bosses, whose Divine Realm Essence he needed to open the Inner Divine Realm Challenge. After failing to locate one by observation, he used the Omniscient High Minor Authority to find a boss in the Fourteenth Heaven and launched a devastating attack at its coordinates.

  • Qin Feng found no World God Tier bosses in the Thirteenth Heaven and decided to search higher heavens himself.
  • Qin Feng reviewed the Grand Authority Successors active between the Thirteenth and Twentieth Heavens and resolved to avoid prolonged fights.
  • Qin Feng found that searching the Fourteenth Heaven by eye or with his available skills was too slow, and the Greedy Heavenly Eye could not generate a boss without enough divinity.
  • Qin Feng queried the Omniscient High Minor Authority and learned that a World God Tier boss in the Fourteenth Heaven was already under attack by multiple factions.
  • Qin Feng used the boss's coordinates to unleash a Deathblade Rift empowered by the Disaster Grand Authority.
