• The Three Sovereigns transformed into a grotesque mech and attacked Lin Fei with a chainsword, then withdrew into an abyss within their Inner Universe.
• Lin Fei entered the abyss and realized that its laws and order were unfamiliar and bizarre.

Lin Fei deciphered the Great Dao’s anti-rules as the Three Sovereigns transformed Earth into a chessboard and turned its people into pieces. He realized they were forcing him into a game whose rules they controlled, and he turned his attention toward the Heavenly Demon Divine Palace.

• Lin Fei understood that the Three Sovereigns had made Earth’s inhabitants the pieces in a game governed by hidden rules, then looked toward the Heavenly Demon Divine Palace.

Lin Fei identified shamelessness as the first match’s rule and chose Fei Zhai, a notorious keyboard warrior, to oppose Pulante. Empowered as a Daluo Golden Immortal, Fei Zhai summoned every keyboard on Earth and became the Terrestrial Keyboard Immortal.

• Lin Fei deduced that the Great Dao Three Sovereigns had made shamelessness the key to the first match, allowing Pulante to attain the Daluo Dao Fruit.

• The Great Dao Three Sovereigns and people across Earth reacted in shock at Fei Zhai’s overwhelming power.
• Fei Zhai summoned every keyboard on Earth and became the Terrestrial Keyboard Immortal.

Lin Fei chose Fei Zhai to fight Pulante, and the keyboard warrior overwhelmed Pulante’s summoned heroic spirits with a torrent of keyboard attacks. As Pulante clung to life and begged for another term, Lin Fei admitted that he had underestimated how shameless he was.

• Lin Fei sighed and admitted that he had underestimated Pulante’s shamelessness.

Pulante summoned US dollars and turned them into a vast arsenal, while Fei Zhai gathered countless keyboards into a powerful weapon and unleashed a causality attack. Their forces collided over the Pacific, leaving the ocean evaporated and a terrifying four-character message hanging in the sky.

• Pulante fired his banknote weapons at Fei Zhai, who hammered his keyboard and sent enormous glowing characters crashing through them.
• The clash evaporated the Pacific Ocean, and the glowing characters formed the words “Your mother is dead,” making Su Tianshuang drop his fan in shock.

Fei Zhai defeated Pulante with a keyboard-warrior attack after Pulante survived the initial blow by claiming he had no mother. The Great Dao Three Sovereigns began the next round by empowering a murderous monster in an abandoned factory, leaving Lin Fei wary of a hidden trap.

• Lin Fei restored the damaged Earth after Fei Zhai's four-character attack struck Pulante.
• Pulante survived because the character for “mom” exploded, and he boasted that he had no mother.

• The Great Dao Three Sovereigns called for the next round, and a twisted black light flew to a monster in an abandoned Rice Nation factory.
• The black light entered the monster, who erupted in karmic fire, while Lin Fei suspected the Three Sovereigns had set a trap.

Lin Fei rejected the Great Dao Three Sovereigns’ attempt to steer him into manifesting a fictional fighter and chose Jiang Qingyue to face the Nightmare Demon. As Jiang Qingyue entered the battle beneath a conjured moon and rising tide, the barrier broke and an eerie nursery rhyme drew him into a dream on Elm Street.

• Lin Fei realized the Great Dao Three Sovereigns might seize control of any fictional being he manifested, so he chose the real Jiang Qingyue instead.
• Fei Zhai lost the power Lin Fei had lent him, begged for it back, and was sent home to his old house.
• Lin Fei ignored Fei Zhai and summoned Jiang Qingyue, who raised a silver moon and vast seawater before confronting the Nightmare Demon.
• Lin Fei told Jiang Qingyue to end the fight in one round, and Jiang Qingyue solemnly accepted his command.
• The barrier shattered, eerie mist spread, and Jiang Qingyue was pulled into a dream where a voice welcomed him to Elm Street.

Lin Fei countered the Great Dao Three Sovereigns’ claim that Dream Demon would defeat Jiang Qingyue by revealing that Jiang could retain his extraordinary strength even as a child inside the dream. Dream Demon began manipulating the dream, and the chapter ended as Jiang mistakenly punched his father, who had entered his room.

• Jiang Xinyue woke from the nightmare, and Jiang Qingyue wondered if it had been a dream before finding a bloody cut on his palm.

Jiang Qingyue’s extraordinary strength failed to convince his mother or friends that a nightmare demon was real, until Tom was murdered and the killer left a threat targeting him. The police agreed to guard Jiang Qingyue and Song Jiajia after she paid them, while the danger remained close.

• Song Jiajia dismissed Jiang Qingyue’s account of the nightmare and took him to a doctor, while Tom mocked him at school for claiming to be a boy.
• Jiang Qingyue displayed superhuman athletic abilities in PE, leaving the teacher and students astonished as he wondered why he remembered being frail and female.
• The Great Dao Three Sovereigns accelerated time in the dream, and Jiang Qingyue dreamed that the nightmare demon killed Tom.
• Jiang Qingyue and Song Jiajia found Tom’s corpse hanging from a tree outside their window, with a message threatening Jiang Qingyue carved on his body.
• The police refused to provide protection until Song Jiajia paid them, after which an officer promised to guard them and shoot the killer.

The Dream Demon exploited two police officers’ lust by trapping them in a shared dream, then driving them to attack Song Jiajia and Jiang Qingyue. After Jiang Qingyue killed both officers in self-defense, the Dream Demon appeared to him in the guise of his mother.

• Jiang Qingyue clung to the person he thought was Song Jiajia, then heard a familiar laugh and realized he was holding the Dream Demon.

Dream Demon killed Susan, Song Jiajia, and Jiang Ningyuan to plunge Jiang Qingyue into despair and make him surrender. Instead, Jiang Qingyue cut off his hair in the hospital morgue, and the Great Dao Three Sovereigns realized their plan might be failing.

• After waking from a nightmare, Jiang Qingyue saw Dream Demon kill Susan in the classroom and later drank coffee to keep himself awake.
• Song Jiajia fell asleep and was killed by Dream Demon, and Jiang Qingyue found her mutilated body in the kitchen.
• Jiang Qingyue learned that his father, Jiang Ningyuan, had also been killed by an unidentified assailant.
