With the ants still endangering his people and his own strength fading, he started a livestream for the first time in years and found the comments bewildering.

• The ant queen eventually fled west, and the ant calamity rose again sixty years later as Su Mo opened his new Pineapple phone and saw Big Pineapple on the livestream.

Su Mo discovered that Big Pineapple had become Zhang Qiancheng, a powerful Resentful Soul, and decided to monitor his growth so he could destroy the world before Zhang reached level three. Years passed in the Microcosm, and Zhang Baoguo became the third Asura monarch before black mist rose from the abandoned ant nest.

• Su Mo entered the Microcosm and watched Big Pineapple kill the ant, wound the ant queen, and lose Yu Ji, who took her own life.
• Su Mo examined Zhang Qiancheng’s status as a level-one Resentful Soul with level-four potential and set an alert to destroy the world if he approached level three.

• Zhang Aimin died, and his daughter Zhang Baoguo succeeded him as the Asura Clan’s third monarch, vowing to pursue the ant race.
• In the eighth year of Zhang Baoguo’s reign, black mist rose from the ant nest her father had destroyed.

Big Pineapple erupted in grief and rage after realizing he could finally affect the outside world but still could not escape or reach his family. When Zhang Baoguo investigated the black mist, she identified herself as Shura King III and revealed that her father was Zhang Aimin, prompting Big Pineapple to react violently to what he thought was a lie.

• Big Pineapple silently longed to see his granddaughter, but Zhang Baoguo refused to enter the cleared black-mist area and declared it forbidden, leaving him alone and returning to his frenzy.
• Zhang Baoguo led a western expedition of seven hundred thousand Asuras and discovered the ant queen had hidden two nests while the Ant Clan spread across the west.
• The Asuras fought the Ant Clan for ten days, losing most of their army as Zhang Baoguo sent messengers home and retreated while continuing to battle.
• With fewer than twenty thousand Asuras remaining, Zhang Baoguo reached the forbidden zone and decided to gamble on entering the black mist rather than face the ants outside.
• The first Asura to enter the mist exploded, but Zhang Baoguo ordered the others onward and charged into it herself.

Zhang Baoguo discovered that the being in the black mist was likely her grandfather, the first A-Shura King, after he saved the Asura Clan from the ant army. Meanwhile, the ant queen sought a breakthrough, prompting Su Mo to enter the Microcosm and decide to push Big Pineapple toward leveling up.

• The ant queen prayed for greater strength after losing contact with many ants, and Su Mo entered the Microcosm, deciding to motivate Big Pineapple to level up.

Su Mo used mosquitoes to provoke Big Pineapple into growing stronger, while the ant queen sensed that any attempt to advance or hide would lead to certain death. Zhang Baoguo met her grandfather, the first king of the Asura, but his fear of losing control kept him from connecting with her before the mosquitoes triggered his murderous rage.

• Su Mo watched the black mist grow and declared that the mosquitoes had finally proved useful.

Big Pineapple remained trapped in his murderous black mist despite reaching the peak of level two, while the ant queen warned Zhang Baoguo that the world would be destroyed unless the ants and Asuras cooperated. After the ant queen persuaded Zhang Baoguo to bring him to Big Pineapple, the livestream viewers speculated that a hidden being was manipulating breakthroughs and civilizations; the chapter ended without confirming their theories.

• Big Pineapple kept raging in the black mist, while Zhang Baoguo escaped and Su Mo left after seeing that neither Big Pineapple nor the ant queen had broken through.
• The ant queen led three hundred thousand ants back east, and Zhang Baoguo marched out with eight hundred thousand Asuras to meet them.

• Big Pineapple regained some clarity and listened as Zhang Baoguo and the ant queen explained the threat.
• Livestream viewers proposed that a hidden being was cultivating Big Pineapple and destroying civilizations to conceal its actions.

Big Pineapple learned from the livestream that a hidden being might be manipulating events to make him and the ant queen break through, so he and Zhang Baoguo accepted a plan to delay their breakthroughs and prepare together. Su Mo continued sending mosquitoes to push Big Pineapple toward a breakthrough, but Big Pineapple refused to kill them, allowing their numbers to grow.

• Big Pineapple calmly let the mosquitoes leave, and the livestream viewers realized they would return in greater numbers; ten years later, their population had tripled.

Big Pineapple refused to break through under pressure from the mosquito plague and tore away half his soul to destroy the swarm, leaving behind black jade and a clue to another path. Over the following centuries, the Asura and Ant Clans grew stronger, and by year 930 Big Pineapple prepared to lead them against the forces controlling their fate.

• Big Pineapple rejected the livestream viewers’ pleas to endure the mosquito plague, declared that no one could force him to break through, and tore away half his soul to annihilate the mosquitoes.
• Big Pineapple gave Zhang Baoguo a piece of black jade and a cryptic suggestion that it might reveal another path, then fell back into madness; Su Mo noted the insult and returned home.
• In year 260, Zhang Baoguo discovered that Soul Crystals could awaken mental power, and Big Pineapple began repeatedly severing his soul to refine it and regain clarity.
• Zhang Baoguo continued ruling the Asura Clan as a soul body after her death in year 370, reached the second tier in year 480, and helped the Soul Dao spread among the Asura.

• With his soul clear after nine hundred years of suffering, Big Pineapple vowed to lead the Asura Clan to break free of fate and the Heavenly Dao.

As the thousand-year calamity drew closer, Big Pineapple carved his final declaration into meteorite slabs, vowing that the Asuras would defeat whoever kept civilizations trapped and doomed. The livestream viewers warned him he had mistaken the identity of the threat, and Su Mo woke up at the end.

• Big Pineapple watched Zhang Baoguo, whose resemblance to Yu Ji kept him from growing close to his granddaughter, as the ant queen returned to the surface, anxious about the coming calamity.
• Livestream viewers questioned why the unseen mastermind kept sending mosquitoes to Big Pineapple instead of destroying him, and wondered whether his current state was part of its plan.

• Su Mo finally woke up in bed, still groggy.

Su Mo decided to send a mastermind into Blue Star to pressure Big Pineapple and the ant queen into breaking through, setting the stage for the world's destruction. He transformed a spider into the Spider Heavenly Emperor, then gave Liu Dajun a memory promising to restore the Ultra Civilization if he destroyed the Asura Civilization and made the A-Shura King break through.

• Su Mo saw that Blue Star had been ravaged by bugs and condemned the Asura Clan for continuing to reproduce stone tablets instead of caring for their planet.
• Su Mo chose a spider from his monster-breeding base to become the Spider Heavenly Emperor, intending to use it to pressure Big Pineapple and the ant queen.
• Su Mo enlarged and empowered the Spider Heavenly Emperor, but found it too unintelligent to act as a cunning mastermind.
• Su Mo gave Liu Dajun a memory promising him a body and power, along with the restoration of the Ultra Civilization, if he destroyed the Asura Civilization and made the A-Shura King break through.

Liu Dajun refused Su Mo’s demand to kill the Asura Clan and force Big Pineapple to break through, but Su Mo had already brought him into the universe and locked onto his soul.

• Big Pineapple noticed the strange activity and told his granddaughter and the ant queen to prepare for the worst.
• Liu Dajun’s message identified him as a transmigrator and exposed Su Mo’s demand to kill the Asura Clan; Big Pineapple and the livestream audience saw it.

• Big Pineapple gathered crystal-like energy and commanded all Asuras to break through.

Big Pineapple led the Asuras through a massive breakthrough and challenged Su Mo, the hidden force that had tormented him and threatened his world. Su Mo remained untouched by Big Pineapple’s attacks and declared that the game was over as he suppressed his imminent Creator God-level breakthrough.

• The ant queen sacrificed countless ants to grow stronger while the Asuras began breaking through at Big Pineapple’s command, and Big Pineapple urged Zhang Baoguo to abdicate if he survived.
• Big Pineapple hurled Liu Dajun into space, destroyed the other spiders, and broke through to third stage perfection as the Asura Clan advanced into a third-stage civilization.
