Chapter Summaries

After returning from the Minor World, Tu Hu reunited with his old friends and explained how he had created the Sword of Civilization by guiding the Rongling civilization for over a thousand years. He planned to share the rewards from the Ancient God Arena with his teammates, but Guide revealed that the Rongling civilization had launched a Star Leap Plan and would soon arrive in Monster World at a dangerous location.

• Tu Hu created the Life Soul Sword of Civilization and received a 500,000 sacrificial power reward, drawing attention across all channels.
• Tu Hu trained in the Testing Tower, then traveled to Colorful Mist Coast and reunited with Sui Feng Piao, Little Milk Bottle, Pan Shi, Noble Mage, and their friends.
• Tu Hu recounted his time protecting the Rongling civilization and offered to split the sacrificial power he earned in the Ancient God Arena with his teammates.
• Tu Hu said he would not return to Dreamweaver World, but Little Milk Bottle questioned whether the Rongling civilization might eventually leave its Minor World.
• Guide told Tu Hu that Xingtong had started the Star Leap Plan and that the Rongling civilization would arrive in Monster World within days at a dangerous location.

Tu Hu learned that the Rongling Civilization would descend into the dangerous Black Swiftness Region and rushed to arrange a teleportation array so he could protect it. After discovering that one person could not defend the entire civilization, he asked A Lan to recruit guild reinforcements, and A Lan offered to contact a friend who might provide a large interdimensional teleportation array.

• Guide told Tu Hu that the Velvet Spirit Tribe would descend into Monster World in four days, and Tu Hu decided to return to protect the Rongling Civilization.
• Tu Hu's squad supported his decision, and he asked the Gold Coin Chamber of Commerce to build a teleportation array to the Black Swiftness Region.
• A Lan accepted Tu Hu's urgent request and arranged for the Spatial Team to assess and build the array, which would take at least four to five days.
• Tu Hu studied the region's records and learned that the Diyuan Tribe used the Black Swiftness Region to test genetically engineered monsters and would treat the Rongling Civilization as research material.
• Tu Hu realized that his sword alone might not protect the whole civilization, so he asked A Lan to recruit guild forces and help secure a large interdimensional teleportation array.
• A Lan said the Gold Coin Chamber of Commerce could not build such a large array in time, but he knew a friend who might help and promised to contact them.

Xingtong led the Velvet Spirit Tribe’s first migration to the Dream World, where the fleet was overwhelmed by the Diyuan Tribe’s biological weapons. As the invasion threatened to destroy the migrants, Tu Hu appeared and held the monster legions back, and Xingtong recognized him as her ancestor.

• Xingtong chose to take the resource-starved Velvet Spirit Tribe to the Dream World, and the tribe spent fifty years preparing a twenty-four-wave Star Leap Plan using a vast Teleportation Array.
• Xingtong commanded the first wave through the World Barrier, where the fleet discovered the Dream World’s extraordinary energy-rich environment and was immediately attacked by powerful native beasts.
• Further waves joined the battle, but the Diyuan Tribe’s experimental creatures and official legions overwhelmed the fleet and destroyed its defenses.
• As Xingtong despaired over the trapped migrants, Tu Hu appeared in golden light and used his sword to halt the monster legions.
• Xingtong saw Tu Hu’s face on the fleet’s display and cried out, recognizing him as her ancestor.

Tu Hu returned to protect the Rongling fleet from the Diyuan Tribe, but the enemy’s attacks overwhelmed his ability to defend everyone. As the fleet struggled to hold on, Divine King and a vast player army arrived through a Spatial Passage and turned the battle into a counterattack.

• Xingtong recognized the returned Tu Hu as her ancestor, and he began cutting down the Diyuan Tribe’s monsters while protecting the Rongling fleet.
• The Diyuan Tribe redirected most of its attacks toward the fleet, forcing Tu Hu into a desperate defense as ships were destroyed.
• Tu Hu contacted Throat of Defying Fate, who said the large Spatial Passage was nearly ready, and Tu Hu fought on to buy time.
• Xingtong rallied the surviving ships around Tu Hu, and the crew recognized him as their returned ancestor.
• Divine King and the player army emerged through the rift and overwhelmed the Diyuan Tribe’s forces.
• Tu Hu thanked the players and joined Divine King’s Three United Warbands in the counterattack.

The Player Legion overwhelmed the Diyuan Tribe across the Black Swiftness Region, destroying its Hatcheries and pursuing its retreating forces while Xingtong watched in disbelief. After the battle, Xingtong reunited with Tu Hu, who greeted her as an old acquaintance before sternly reprimanding her.

• Players from the United Warbands charged into battle and obliterated the Diyuan Tribe's monsters with overwhelming physical and elemental attacks.
• Xingtong watched the players' power and struggled to reconcile it with what she knew about the limits of life and her civilization.
• Player squads spread through the Black Swiftness Region, destroyed Hatcheries, and drove the Diyuan Tribe's forces into retreat.
• The players pursued and slaughtered the fleeing monsters as more Hatcheries exploded across the region.
• Xingtong descended from the Ark and called Tu Hu her ancestor, and Tu Hu recognized her before rebuking her for recklessness.

After the Velvet Spirit Tribe’s defeat, Tu Hu heard Xingtong explain why she had risked their civilization’s future by coming to Monster World. He chose to stay and help the tribe establish itself, then discovered that his return had left him with nearly 45 million in debt.

• The player army withdrew after the Diyuan Tribe scattered, leaving the battered Velvet Spirit Tribe to repair its ships and treat its wounded.
• Xingtong told Tu Hu that dwindling resources had left the Rongling Civilization with no choice but to seek a future through Dream World.
• Xingtong guessed that Tu Hu had been a clone or projection of the Dreamweaver Civilization’s last survivor, but Tu Hu explained that he had accepted a request from one of its seniors and had been injured while crossing the void.
• Tu Hu concluded that the Velvet Spirit Tribe could not return home and chose to stay, planning to bring his teammates over and help the tribe join the player ecosystem.
• Xingtong embraced Tu Hu after he promised not to abandon the tribe, and he then saw A Lan’s 10.39 million bill for teleportation materials.
• Tu Hu realized that the teleportation bill, together with his 34 million debt for the Sword of Civilization, left him owing nearly 45 million.

Tu Hu gained his brothers’ support for shifting their team toward building up the Velvet Spirit Tribe, but learned the tribe’s resources were nearly exhausted. He decided to auction his Sword of Slaughter and Sword of Destruction within the Player Faction, while A Lan pledged the Gold Coin Chamber of Commerce’s full support for the tribe.

• Tu Hu asked his teammates to join him in developing the Velvet Spirit Tribe, and Little Milk Bottle, Sui Feng Piao, Pan Shi, and Noble Mage agreed to take on civilization-building together.
• Xingtong told Tu Hu that the fleet had suffered major damage and the destruction of its core storage fleet had left the Velvet Spirit Tribe critically short of resources.
• After his teammates said they had little Sacrificial Power to spare, Tu Hu realized he could sell the Sword of Slaughter and Sword of Destruction to raise startup funds.
• Tu Hu asked A Lan to arrange an auction, and A Lan proposed keeping the two forms of Sword Momentum within the Player Faction while offering a ten-percent subsidy and publicity.
• Tu Hu accepted the internal auction without the subsidy, and A Lan promised that the Gold Coin Chamber of Commerce would fully support the Velvet Spirit Tribe’s commercial and resource needs.

A Lan’s post revealed the history behind Tu Hu’s Sword of Civilization and announced the auction of the Sword of Slaughter and Sword of Destruction, igniting intense competition among players and major factions. The auctions ended with the Mist Legion Commander and Little Mage winning for a combined 127.22 million Sacrificial Power, leaving Tu Hu with funds to repay his debts and support the Rongling Civilization.

• A Lan’s forum post described Tu Hu’s 1,700-year vigil over the Velvet Spirit Tribe and explained the origins and power of the Sword of Slaughter and Sword of Destruction.
• The Human Federation Strategic Development Department offered Tu Hu cash and resources for the sword momentums, but Tu Hu declined and insisted that the highest bidder would win.
• Players and guilds liquidated resources to raise Sacrificial Power, while A Lan refused major guilds’ requests for loans to keep the auction fair.
• Divine King’s United Warband and Ye Ming’s Mist Legion competed for the Sword of Slaughter, while Fate Throat pursued the Sword of Destruction before withdrawing when its price exceeded his available funds.
• The Mist Legion Commander won the Sword of Slaughter for 68.29 million Sacrificial Power, and Little Mage won the Sword of Destruction for 58.93 million.
• Tu Hu calculated that the proceeds after the handling fee would clear his debts and provide resources for the Rongling Civilization, then received a private message from Divine King.

Di Nian and the Evil Spirit Alliance killed the Great Stele Priest and used its Civilization Rule and memories to create Wan Ji, a demigod troop type. Di Nian expected Wan Ji to crush the Player Legion and Insect Race, but Tu Hu’s golden sword strike shattered Wan Ji’s attack, leaving Di Nian and Divine King furious at their opponents’ rapid growth.

• Di Nian summoned alliance members to help kill the exhausted Great Stele Priest, then extracted its Civilization Rule Core and analyzed its memories.
• Di Nian combined the Civilization Rule, the Great Stele Priest’s memories, pain energy, and dark tide energy to forge the demigod troop type Wan Ji, which pledged itself to him.
• The Player Legion and Insect Race attacked the Emperor Tomb Mountain Range, and Di Nian unleashed Wan Ji against the Player army.
• Tu Hu struck with golden sword energy, splitting Wan Ji’s palm attack and tearing open the Dark Tide clouds.
• Di Nian cursed the unexpected interference, while Divine King cursed in the Warband Channel after seeing Tu Hu’s attack thwart his plan.

Di Nian Bully’s Wan Ji clashed with Divine King’s Tu Hu as the Insect Race launched a massive assault, forcing both armies to turn their strength against the swarm. After the allied forces drove into Phantom Marsh, the Zerg Master Brain produced a new demigod, leaving Divine King and Di Nian Bully furious and accusing the game of unfairness.

• Di Nian Bully revealed Wan Ji, a demigod forged from the Great Stele Priest, shocking Divine King and enraging the evil spirits who had expected their new weapon to dominate the battlefield.
• The Insect Race attacked both armies, and Tu Hu and Wan Ji traded rule-powered blows while the players, Dark Tide, and insects fought across the battlefield.
• When giant Insect Race beasts broke through the lines, Divine King and Di Nian Bully redirected their forces and their demigods to attack the insects together.
• Tu Hu and Wan Ji carved paths through the swarm, allowing the player and Dark Tide armies to advance into Phantom Marsh toward the Zerg Master Brain.
• The Zerg Master Brain expelled a creature that rapidly grew into an Insect Race demigod and targeted Tu Hu and Wan Ji.
• Di Nian Evil Spirit cursed the Insect Race’s sudden power, while Divine King demanded that the developers stop the Zerg Master Brain from exploiting a bug.

Ji Lie emerged as a Demigod, joining Tu Hu and Wan Ji in a battle that elevated the Village Entrance War into a catastrophe across both sky and ground. As the three factions fought, players on the Forum treated the latest outrageous advances by Di Nian Bully and the Zerg Master Brain as perfectly normal for the village entrance.

• The Zerg Master Brain gave birth to Ji Lie, prompting furious complaints from the Evil Spirit Alliance and the player warbands.
• Tu Hu, Ji Lie, and Wan Ji clashed in the sky, with Ji Lie breaking through Wan Ji’s civilization cage and Tu Hu joining the fight.
• Divine King and other commanders formed battle formations to protect players as they fought the Insect Race and the Dark Tide below.
• The Zerg Master Brain recycled its Insect Race units into Tyrant-Level troops, while Di Nian Bully reshaped the Dark Tide into fourteen-palace Abyssal Warlords.
• Players on the Forum calmly accepted the new Demigods, citing the Village Entrance Battlefield’s history of Di Nian Bully and the Zerg Master Brain growing stronger in unreasonable ways.

Tu Hu, Wan Ji, and Ji Lie killed one another in a clash that left the village entrance battlefield devastated, after which Qi Sheng assessed how the three factions would use demigod power in future wars. He completed the Four Gods' Retainer System and announced an upcoming update that would let Players seek the Four Gods' blessings.

• Tu Hu, Wan Ji, and Ji Lie unleashed their powers against one another and all perished in the resulting explosion.
• The Players, Insect Race, and Dark Tide forces resumed their brutal three-way battle after surviving the demigods' destructive aftershocks.
• Qi Sheng concluded that demigod forces would become deterrents in internal conflicts and would be used together against outside enemies.
• Qi Sheng reviewed the Players' statistics and built the Four Gods' Retainer System around Yan Ming, Nine Yin, Ultra-Dimensional, and Guide.
• Qi Sheng announced the upcoming update, "The Four Gods' Gaze," which would let Players pray for the Four Gods' favor and blessings.

The Four Gods' Retainer System launched, and players debated which blessing was strongest, with Nightfall Is Coming ranking Nine Yin first and Guide last. As forum arguments turned into rival factions, Qi Sheng welcomed the controversy because it would drive players to test the blessings and spend Sacrificial Power.

• The official announcement introduced blessings from Yan Ming, Nine Yin, Guide, and Ultra-Dimensional, each offering permanent improvements that players could develop through prayer at Emperor Tomb Village's God Sacrificial Altar.
• Nightfall Is Coming posted a ranking that placed Nine Yin first, Ultra-Dimensional second, Yan Ming third, and Guide fourth, recommending blessings according to players' builds and goals.
• Players including Shizi Dingsuji, The Unthinking Contemplator, Mage Never Become Slaves, and Battlefield Schemer challenged the ranking and argued for their preferred blessings.
• The forum debate divided players into factions favoring survival, origin enhancement, future strategy, or information, and their arguments escalated into hostile exchanges.
• Qi Sheng watched the dispute from atop the Primordial Sacrificial Altar and welcomed the debate because testing the blessings would deepen players' understanding and consume Sacrificial Power.

Fate Throat activated all four divine blessings at the God Sacrificial Altar, then focused his investment on Yan Ming's Space Comprehension and won a powerful teleportation card. He was preparing to improve Guide's blessing when a clansperson urgently called him back because a major wager threatened the Gambling City's reserves.

• Fate Throat entered the God Sacrificial Altar and activated the blessings of Nine Yin, Yan Ming, Ultra-Dimensional, and Guide for 400,000 Sacrificial Power.
• Fate Throat invested five million Sacrificial Power in Yan Ming's Space Comprehension and received a purple Instant Positioning Card.
• Fate Throat decided to conserve his remaining Sacrificial Power for the Gambling City's development and prepared to improve Guide's blessing.
• A clansperson called Fate Throat back, warning that a big fish had taken the bait and the group might not be able to cover the wager.

Fate Throat accepted Gu Qi’s high-stakes wager of the Deathly Silence Rule and opened the gamble to player investors, spreading both the potential profits and the risk of loss. After raising more than 34 billion Sacrificial Power, he prepared to face Gu Qi at the gambling table.

• Fate Throat learned that Gu Qi, a surviving Soulbone Race elder, had offered the Deathly Silence Rule in an Equivalent Gamble, while the Gambling City lacked the funds to match its value.
• Fate Throat asked Guide whether a rule could be broken down into Sacrificial Power and later restored, then proposed selling shares so players could jointly fund the wager and share its outcomes.
• A Lan agreed that the investment plan was worthwhile and committed one billion Sacrificial Power from the Gold Coin Chamber of Commerce’s strategic reserves.
• Fate Throat published an open subscription offer on the Forum, attracting major guilds, wealthy players, and other investors after Guide estimated a 77.39349% chance of victory.
• Fate Throat’s subscriptions reached 34,375,932,258 Sacrificial Power, and he began a livestream before heading to meet Gu Qi at the gambling table.

Fate Throat delayed his rule-level gamble against Gu Qi to publicize it across the sea regions, drawing crowds and wealth to Dream Island. The Equivalent Gamble began with Gu Qi wagering the Deathly Silence Rule Inscription against Fate Throat’s offering, and Fate Throat won as the scales tipped in his favor.

• Fate Throat agreed to Gu Qi’s wager but delayed it for three days while funds were gathered and A Lan organized publicity.
• A Lan and Fate Throat promoted the gamble throughout the Gold Coin Chamber of Commerce’s network, bringing visitors to Dream Island and boosting its trading market.

• Fate Throat activated Fortune and Misfortune as the Seven-Person Roulette resolved the gamble between him and Gu Qi.
• The scales tipped toward Fate Throat, confirming his victory and prompting celebrations across Dream Island.

Fate Throat won the Deathly Silence Rule, and Guide converted its energy into Sacrificial Power that he distributed among the Players who had backed the gamble. When A Lan warned that several unknown powers were preparing to attack Dream Island, the Players rallied to defend the island and the Gold Coin Chamber of Commerce.

• Gu Qi lost the gamble, abandoned hope, and died as his body crumbled into dust.
• Guide extracted the Deathly Silence Rule's energy for Fate Throat, who settled the gamble and distributed the proceeds to more than 350,000 participating Players.
• A Lan warned Fate Throat that spatial teleportation anchors from at least five powers were forming near Dream Island, signaling an imminent attack.
• Fate Throat agreed to prepare for battle as A Lan's Chamber of Commerce raised its alert and withdrew noncombatants toward the central district.
• The Gold Coin Chamber of Commerce requested support on the Forum, prompting Players and Guilds across the faction to mobilize for Dream Island's defense.

A Lan watched five powerful factions launch a probing assault on Dream Island while players fought to hold the island’s eastern defenses. Realizing the armies were only the first wave and demigods could follow, he arranged for Fate Throat to build a large teleportation array so he could recruit the two Bullies at the Emperor Tomb Mountain Range.

• A Lan identified the five invading factions and ordered the island’s players to prepare for battle as their armies emerged from spatial arrays.
• Divine King and the other commanders deployed player warbands against the Demonkin, Skyspine Featherfolk, Emberbone Clan, Blighted Forest Witch Alliance, and Frostbane Clan.
• The players clashed with all five armies, suffering heavy casualties while using their traits and coordinated attacks to hold the fronts.
• A Lan judged that the five armies were probing Dream Island ahead of their demigod leaders and that the island could not withstand an escalation with its current strength.
• After seeing a Golden Bullet Comment, A Lan called Fate Throat and ordered him to build a large, stable teleportation array at the Di Family Mountains.
• A Lan bought spatial materials in bulk, intending to bring the two Bullies at the village entrance into the fight before the enemy escalated.

Dream Island’s defenses collapsed under the five overlords and a growing host of invading forces, while Shuyan abandoned its alliance and joined the assault. Just as the island seemed lost, Di Nian Bully’s Dark Tide and the Combat Zerg poured through a vast rift, spared the players, and turned on the invaders.

• The five overlords escalated their attack, and Tu Hu and the players’ battle formations initially held the line against their united forces.
• More than thirty powerful enemies arrived, shattered the players’ formations, and drove Dream Island’s defenders into retreat as Shuyan prepared to attack.
• Di Nian Bully destroyed Fate Throat’s unfinished teleportation array, then ordered Evil Eye to open a massive spatial rift and force the Zerg Master Brain to awaken.
• As the invaders prepared to overrun Dream Island, the Dark Tide and Combat Zerg emerged from the rift, causing Shuyan and the other attackers to retreat.
• Wan Ji, Demon Seed, Great Demon, and the demigod Ji Lie appeared as the Dark Tide and Combat Zerg bypassed the players and unleashed their attacks on the invaders.

Di Nian Bully and the Zerg Master Brain joined the battle for Dream Island, turning the five factions’ attack into a rout as the players regrouped and fought alongside them. After the invaders escaped through their Spatial Passages, Di Nian Bully opened new rifts to their territories, and the players prepared to pursue them.

• Di Nian Bully and the Zerg Master Brain crossed through a Spatial Rift and unleashed their forces against the five factions and the jackal factions attacking Dream Island.
• The Dark Tide and Insect Race sustained their troops through devouring and hatching, overwhelming the invaders while Shuyan’s mist domain retreated to watch.
• Divine King rallied the recovered players, and the Dark Tide and Insect Race cleared paths for their advance as the Three Great Disasters coordinated their counterattack.
• The invading forces’ leaders ordered a retreat, and their Spatial Passages closed after the main legions escaped, abandoning some clanspeople behind.
• Di Nian Bully ordered Evil Eye to open five new Spatial Rifts to the invaders’ territories, and the players decided to follow and raid them.
