Ch. 626Building the System

Lin Yuan brought the Heavenly Venerable's Corpse to the Ancient Era Heavenly Gate so the Third Lord and the others could build the system. As the runes took shape, a mysterious point emerged from the Little Box and helped form the game and its panels.

  • Lin Yuan's Little Box activated the Old-Style Little Box, which absorbed the Heavenly Venerable's Corpse along with everything around it except Lin Yuan.
  • Lin Yuan returned to the Ancient Era Heavenly Gate, where the Three Saints and the Sanctum Founders had gathered materials for building the system.
  • The Three Saints identified the Old-Style Little Box as the object the Heavenly Venerable had once possessed, which had led him to discover the Ultimate Universe.
  • The Third Lord began constructing the system with the Heavenly Venerable's Legacy Notes, while Lin Yuan, Lord Yi, the Second Lord, and the Sanctum Founders assisted.
  • A mysterious point emerged from the Little Box containing the Heavenly Venerable's Corpse and merged into the runes torrents, helping illusory islands, instances, items, and the Player Panel and System Panel take shape.

Ch. 627The site of the final battle

The Third Lord completed the Game System, linked it to the Holy Land World, and designated the Spacetime Barrier as the site of the final battle. Lin Yuan arrived there and met the Research Institute Director and the Press Club President, then asked where the Sanctum Founders were.

  • The Third Lord connected the Holy Land World's passage to the system and designed players to manifest as both people and ships.

  • Lin Yuan asked why the two were there without the Sanctum Founders.

Ch. 628Preparations for the Finale

Lin Yuan learned how the Sanctum Founders would enter the special space-time location for the Finale War and returned to the Endless Sea to make preparations. With his time there limited to one hour, he met the East Pole Island Lord and Moge and began to ask for their help.

  • The Research Institute Director and the Press Club President explained that inscriptions in the statues would let the Sanctum Founders descend for the Finale War, while the Human Federation could offer limited remote support.
  • They told Lin Yuan that the war would begin within minutes in the special space-time location, though three to five years remained in the Endless Sea.
  • Lin Yuan returned to the Endless Sea, where he felt the world rejecting him and realized he could stay for only one hour in total.
  • Lin Yuan met the East Pole Island Lord and Moge, who offered to handle any tasks he needed before the Finale War.
  • Lin Yuan told them that he needed to make preparations for the approaching battle.

Ch. 629Farewells Before the War

Lin Yuan learned that he could use Civilization Power only when humanity entered the war period and asked Moge to help Little Black finish the Level Nine Ship Hull blueprints before the Finale War. Before leaving for the final battle, he visited his crew, said farewell to them, and sat with the sleeping Lilia.

  • The East Pole Island Lord explained that the Federation would channel Civilization Power to Lin Yuan during the war period, and that Little Gold would remain in the Endless Sea to support human civilization.

  • Lin Yuan sat beside Lilia's Coffin, and the sleeping Doll Girl briefly reached out to comfort him before falling asleep again.

Ch. 630The final battle began early

Lin Yuan and the others prepared for the final battle, but the Great Being attacked before the Level Nine Ship Hull blueprints arrived. As humanity’s forces mobilized and the Sanctum Founders joined the fight, Lin Yuan went to receive humanity’s civilization power.

  • Lin Yuan left Lilia’s coffin and returned to the Decisive Battle Grounds, where the Federation Council Speaker reported that the Level Nine Ship Hull blueprints were nearly complete.
  • Cracks opened in the sky, and angels serving the Great Being appeared, beginning the final battle ahead of schedule.
  • Lin Yuan attacked the angels while the Research Institute Director, the Federation Council Speaker, and the Press Club President activated the stone statues to alert humanity and summon its civilization power.
  • The angels targeted the outer stone statues before the civilization power had finished condensing, but the Sanctum Founders appeared and intercepted them.
  • A stout Sanctum Founder took over Lin Yuan’s opponents and revealed that he had once kicked Lin Yuan, Lilia, and the coffin from Chaos Star to East Pole Island; Lin Yuan went to receive the civilization power.

Ch. 631Civilization Power

Lin Yuan and the Sanctum Founders faced the Great Being as the Time Maze weakened its control over time, while its Chaos Sea Water empowered the angels and weakened humanity. The Research Institute Director then gathered humanity’s civilization power into Lin Yuan, leaving him with a new force that resonated with his Miracle Crown.

  • Lin Yuan left the Sanctum Founders and joined the Research Institute Director, who prepared to channel the civilization power gathered in the Endless Sea.

  • The Research Institute Director told Lin Yuan that human civilization had entered a state of war and directed its united power into him.
  • Lin Yuan received civilization power formed from countless human sparks and sensed that it was naturally compatible with his Miracle Crown.

Ch. 632Level Nine Ship Hull

Lin Yuan combined the powers of miracles and civilization to hold back the Chaos Sea Water and Angels, but he could not harm the Great Being behind the Sky Curtain. When Moge delivered the Level Nine Ship Hull Design Blueprint, Lin Yuan used artisan power to upgrade his ship hull while his allies defended him.

  • Lin Yuan combined miracle and civilization power to clear the Chaos Sea Water, giving the Sanctum Founders an opening to drive back the Angels.
  • Lin Yuan found that his combined power could block the Great Being's influence but could not threaten its true body, and the Sky Curtain continued to descend.
  • The Research Institute Director concluded that borrowing civilization power could not make Lin Yuan a Paradox Level being, but Lin Yuan said he still had another hope.
  • Moge sent Lin Yuan the completed Level Nine Ship Hull Design Blueprint from East Pole Island.
  • Lin Yuan drew back his power to hold off the Chaos Sea Water, while the Research Institute Director, the Press Club President, and the Speaker of the Human Federation fought to buy him time.
  • Lin Yuan used artisan power strengthened by miracle power to upgrade his ship hull according to the blueprint, completing the Level Nine Ship Hull in minutes.

Ch. 633Not a Paradox

After forming the Eternity Crown alongside his Miracle Crown, Lin Yuan created paradox power but discovered he lacked the mysterious quality needed to control it. As the Sanctum Founders faltered against the angels, he turned to battle with the power he could wield.

  • Lin Yuan completed the Level Nine Ship Hull and manifested the Eternity Crown, realizing that eternity had counteracted destruction within the Crawler Apostle.
  • Lin Yuan brought the Eternity Crown together with his Miracle Crown, and their repulsion generated paradox power that he could not control.
  • Lin Yuan recalled the Three Saints' assessment and concluded he lacked a necessary quality to ascend to the Paradox Level.
  • As the Sanctum Founders began losing ground, Lin Yuan tried the Treasure Collection Room's Little Box but gained no answer from it.
  • Lin Yuan combined miracle and eternal power to form an energy black hole, then used it to devour an angel.

Ch. 634Rout

Lin Yuan used an energy black hole to grind down the angels, but the Great Being entered the world and overwhelmed the human side. As Lin Yuan prepared to sacrifice himself to bring his uncontrollable Paradox Power into the fight, the Three Saints told him to leave the rest to them.

  • Lin Yuan’s energy black hole began grinding the angels into primitive energy, giving the human side an overwhelming advantage.
  • The Great Being’s true body entered through the shattered sky, and its presence weakened the Sanctum Founders and polluted those who looked at it.
  • The Great Being targeted Lin Yuan with waves of indescribable things, feeding the black hole until it grew and threatened to suck him in.
  • The Great Being attacked the other Lords of the Crown as well, leaving the human side in a rout.
  • Lin Yuan decided to let the black hole absorb him so it could hold his Paradox Power, but the Three Saints spoke and told him to leave the rest to them.

Ch. 635A Costly... Victory?

The Three Saints sacrificed themselves and the surviving Sanctum Founders to use the Heavenly Gate’s paradox power to drive back the Great Being. Lin Yuan and the others repaired the space-time node, making the Endless Sea Universe independent, but Lin Yuan wondered whether survival after so many deaths could truly be called victory.

  • The Three Saints told Lin Yuan to prepare to flee and ordered the Sanctum Founders to give them their power.
  • The Sanctum Founders sacrificed themselves, and the Three Saints merged before entering the black hole Lin Yuan hurled into the sky.
  • The black hole carried the Heavenly Gate’s refined paradox power into the Great Being, which vanished along with the remaining corruption.
  • Lin Yuan ordered the Research Institute Director, the Press Club President, the Federation Council Speaker, and the others to activate the four dormant stone statues and repair the space-time node.
  • The repaired node made the Endless Sea Universe fully independent, and the Great Being did not return.
  • Lin Yuan looked at the fallen Sanctum Founders and questioned whether their costly escape could be considered victory.

Ch. 636A hidden danger

After returning from the repaired spacetime node, Lin Yuan and the others confirmed that the Endless Sea Universe was independent and humanity had won, but Lin Yuan discovered a possible hidden mark from Chaos Sea Water that could let the Great Being locate their universe. He kept the danger to himself for now and returned to East Pole Island to rest.

  • Lin Yuan and the others agreed to erect a blank monument for the unknown predecessors who had died in the battle.
  • The spacetime node’s barrier dissipated, returning Lin Yuan, the Federation Council Speaker, the Press Club President, and the Research Institute Director to the Endless Sea.
  • The Federation Council Speaker and the Research Institute Director discussed announcing the victory and holding a banquet for humanity.
  • Lin Yuan experienced a torrent of images as they returned and suspected that Chaos Sea Water had marked him when Paradise collapsed, potentially giving the Great Being a way to find their universe.
  • Lin Yuan concealed his concern, went to East Pole Island, confirmed the victory to Senior Moge and the East Pole Island Lord, and withdrew to rest.

Ch. 637The true origin

Lin Yuan learned that the other players’ memories of Blue Star differed from his own, and realized he may have come from the Ultimate Universe rather than the Holy Land World. As his Mysterious Little Box’s inscriptions began to glow in response to that revelation, Lilia remained asleep.

  • Lin Yuan told Bai Ling, Little Black, Little Gold, and Never Skunked that he knew Lilia had fallen into an eternal slumber and promised to try to wake her.
  • Little Black gave Lin Yuan a letter from Lilia containing a joke, and Bai Ling and Never Skunked explained that its references matched their version of Blue Star’s history.
  • Lin Yuan asked Bai Ling and Never Skunked to recount Blue Star’s history, then confirmed with the Manager and other players that their memories differed from his.
  • Lin Yuan recalled that he had arrived after being hit by a truck, unlike the other players, who had crossed over without warning, and wondered whether he came from a different world.
  • Lin Yuan concluded that his true origin might be the Ultimate Universe, and the inscriptions on his Mysterious Little Box began to glow.

Ch. 638Fate was sealed

Lin Yuan realized that the two Little Boxes and the Heavenly Venerable’s fate were the key to completing himself and reaching the Paradox Level. He weighed accepting the fate and facing the Great Being against remaining safe, then made his decision as he looked at Lilia’s letter.

  • Lin Yuan understood that his Mysterious Little Box was a half-real, half-false split from the Heavenly Venerable’s battered Little Box, leaving his existence incomplete and blocking his advance to the Paradox Level.
  • Lin Yuan realized Research Institute 3154 had placed the battered Little Box in his hands so he could reunite the two boxes, accept the Heavenly Venerable’s fate, and complete the chain of fate that would make him a Paradox-Level being.
  • Lin Yuan saw that accepting the Heavenly Venerable’s fate would grant him control over fate and space-time but also make him share the Heavenly Venerable’s destined downfall.
  • Lin Yuan weighed accepting that fate to fight the Great Being against remaining humanity’s Lord of Civilization, but recognized that he had to decide before Paradise and the Primordial Universe were lost.
  • Lin Yuan thought of those who had sacrificed themselves for humanity and looked at the letter Lilia had left behind, having made his decision.

Ch. 639The Culprit

Lin Yuan said farewell to his companions and warned humanity to remain on wartime footing while he dealt with the Great Being’s lingering influence. After merging the two Little Boxes and accepting the Heavenly Venerable’s fate, he discovered that missing, unattached Fate Threads were keeping his own fate incomplete.

  • Lin Yuan told Bai Ling and the others to take care of Lilia, then vanished without answering whether he would return.
  • Lin Yuan visited the East Pole Island Lord and Moge, waving goodbye before disappearing.
  • Lin Yuan informed the Federation Council Speaker, the Research Institute Director, and the Press Club President about the Chaos Sea Water inside him and told them to keep humanity on wartime footing.
  • Lin Yuan wandered through the Endless Sea, observing its islands and inhabitants before preparing to protect the world.
  • Lin Yuan merged his Little Box with the Heavenly Venerable’s and used Fate Threads to confirm the Heavenly Venerable was dead.
  • Lin Yuan saw that unattached Fate Threads around him were missing parts of his fate and preventing him from becoming whole.

Ch. 640It Was Me All Along

Lin Yuan repaired the ownerless fate threads by revealing that he himself had caused the Little Box’s interventions throughout his past, and the seven powers within the box had come from him. He followed the final thread to his pre-transmigration self and drove a Dayun truck toward him, setting his own transmigration in motion.

  • Lin Yuan used space-time and fate power to connect the Little Box’s past interventions to his actions, explaining how he had influenced events through the system and helped his past self.
  • As more fate threads joined the world’s tapestry, Lin Yuan gained a firmer foundation and began commanding paradox power, sending his past self combat experience and combining seven powers into the light inside the Little Box.
  • Lin Yuan connected the thread tied to Lilia’s coffin to the moment he tricked her into signing the Contract of Fate.
  • Lin Yuan followed the final thread to a Taoist temple, where his pre-transmigration self asked him to divine his fortune and was told that great luck awaited him.
  • Lin Yuan found the fate thread wrapped around a parked Dayun truck, used his miracle and civilization powers to start it, and drove toward his past self to trigger the transmigration.

Ch. 641The final battle

After reaching the Paradox Level, Lin Yuan used the Heavenly Venerable’s remaining Space-Time Power to confront the Great Being across worlds. He defeated the weakened borer and recovered the missing half of Lilia’s Nirvana Crown, leaving the Great Being destroyed.
