After recovering from Overload Mode, Qin Ze learned from Star Eyes about the ranks and authorities of Star Gods and Strange Gods, and discovered that Star Eyes could not glimpse his fate because he was outside the Five Elements and Two Realms. Star Eyes revealed that he had been lost in time for more than an epoch and knew little about the final battle, leaving Qin Ze worried that most Star Gods had been wiped out.

• Qin Ze rested while Star Eyes explained that Pillar Gods and Sequence Gods were Upper Gods with authorities, while ordinary Star Gods were Lower Gods without them.
• Star Eyes identified himself as the Upright thirty-second Sequence, Star God Lingmou, and said he could create time fields and glimpse fate but could not see Qin Ze's fate.
• Star Eyes said the five Demigod Level beings, including Hundred Eyes, came from Chaos rather than New Land and were not truly exotic beasts.
• Star Eyes explained that Strange Gods had thirty-six Upper Gods and no Pillar Gods, and that he had been trapped in turbulent time after trying to spy on their plans before the final battle.
• Star Eyes admitted he knew nothing about the final battle or how the gods were driven into Chaos, leaving Qin Ze to fear that most Star Gods had been destroyed.

Qin Ze recruited Star Eyes and the Forest Clan into the Myriad Races Allied Army while preparing for the Strange Gods’ eventual return. After several days of rebuilding and waiting, the Forest Clan finished Outpost City, and Second Sister arrived with Yan Miao.

• Qin Ze welcomed Star Eyes into the Myriad Races Allied Army and appointed him chief of staff.
• Qin Ze persuaded General Huan to have the Forest Clan join the Allied Army and urged the clan to finish building Outpost City.
• Qin Ze and his companions discussed whether Star Eyes could be trusted and whether the Star Gods could revive from Chaos, setting a half-year deadline before considering retreat.
• Captain revealed that he had crafted a Tsar Bomba to counter Meng Die, while Qin Ze stayed with the Forest Clan in case she returned.
• The Forest Clan completed Outpost City, and Second Sister arrived with Yan Miao.

Qin Ze welcomed Second Sister and Yan Miao to the Forest Clan and told them he was forming the Abyss Civilization Alliance to fight the Strange Gods. He appointed Yan Miao to lead the still-unassembled Second Army and Second Sister to oversee the Forest Clan in his absence, while Second Sister warned that Strange Gods were not easy to defeat.

• Qin Ze welcomed Second Sister and Yan Miao to the Forest Clan's Outpost City and showed them the bustling settlement.
• Qin Ze explained that he was forming the Abyss Civilization Alliance and a Myriad Races Allied Army to fight the reviving Strange Gods.
• Qin Ze appointed Yan Miao grand general of the Second Army and made Second Sister his deputy in charge of the Forest Clan when he was away.
• Yan Miao eagerly accepted responsibility for assembling the Second Army, while Qin Ze declared himself Alliance leader and grand marshal.
• Second Sister warned Qin Ze that Strange Gods were not easy to deal with.

Qin Ze recruited Second Sister and Yan Miao into the Myriad Races Allied Army after showing them that a living Star God supported the alliance. He then assigned Second Sister to build an Abyss-wide teleportation network, beginning with the Forest Clan.

• Second Sister explained that strange gods' powers far exceeded those of king-class exotic beasts, and doubted the Forest Clan could withstand such threats.
• Qin Ze argued that the Forest Clan had survived beast tides and helped defeat a king-class exotic beast and drive off a Higher Strange God, then invited Second Sister to join his effort to unite civilizations.
• Star Eyes arrived, introduced himself as the alliance's chief of staff, and warned Qin Ze that a new beast tide was gathering while Meng Die remained missing.
• Qin Ze persuaded Yan Miao to embrace his role as commander of the Second Army, and Second Sister agreed to stay with the alliance for the time being.
• Qin Ze asked Second Sister, a high-tier formation master, to construct an Abyss teleportation network linking member worlds, starting with the Forest Clan.

Qin Ze learned that large-scale spatial portals required a god with spatial authority and World Stones, making the Alliance’s transport network difficult to build. He also discovered Yan Miao was close to losing control of the Source of God of War and agreed to serve as its temporary vessel, while Star Eyes hinted at a risky substitute for World Stones.

• Second Sister told Qin Ze that even many high-level formation masters could not build large-scale spatial portals, so he went to consult Star Eyes.
• Star Eyes said the myriad races would face destruction without Qin Ze’s interference, and warned that Yan Miao would lose control of the Source of God of War within two days.
• Star Eyes explained that Qin Ze could contain the released Source of God of War, and Qin Ze agreed to help Yan Miao.
• Star Eyes said he could not build spatial portals, which required a god with spatial authority or a Strange God and materials capable of bearing higher rules.
• Star Eyes told Qin Ze that World Stones could serve as portal foundations, but offered to explain a risky, less durable substitute.

Qin Ze learned that purified exotic beast eggshells could be used to build spatial portals and set out to collect them in New Land. Meanwhile, Magician became trapped in a ghost maze and was swallowed by gray mist as the surrounding space collapsed.

• Star Eyes explained that exotic beast eggshells became usable portal material once the beasts hatched, and Qin Ze calculated that he needed tens of thousands of shells.
• Qin Ze told Star Eyes to guard their home, then informed General Huan and Brother Devour that he was leaving to collect eggshells.
• The Mist Lord suggested Qin Ze bring Captain along, but Qin Ze declined because he expected to avoid any New Land guarded by a Strange God.
• Magician complained that his teammates had not rescued him from a ghost maze, then gave up and called for an exotic beast to eat him.
• The ground and space around Magician shook and collapsed, and gray mist poured out and engulfed him, knocking him unconscious.

Qin Ze waited for Yan Miao’s Source of God of War to go out of control so he could rescue him and Second Sister before setting out for the New Land. He safely channeled the power back into Yan Miao and offered to help him manage it regularly.

• Magician lost contact after the world warped and gray fog appeared, but Brother Devour confirmed that he was alive and unconscious.
• Qin Ze told the others he would wait for Yan Miao’s Source of God of War to become unstable before intervening, while Dharma King headed toward Penglai City.
• The Source of God of War erupted in Yan Miao’s house, and Second Sister struggled to suppress it as the surrounding fairies and tree spirits fled the Blazing Sun Fire.
• Qin Ze entered the flames and drew the Source of God of War into himself, resisting his own Source of God’s urge to devour it.
• After Yan Miao recovered, Qin Ze returned the power to him, gathered the remaining fire, and told Second Sister to bring Yan Miao back every month or two for help channeling it.

Qin Ze left the Forest Clan to find New Land and gather materials for the Alliance’s teleportation portal. As exotic beasts ambushed him behind their defensive line, he captured one and linked his Spirit to its network, hearing a command to purge all heretics.

• Qin Ze asked Second Sister to guard the crystal and Outpost City while he went to New Land, and she agreed to stay behind.
• Qin Ze traveled toward the region where Meng Die and the others had come from, but found increasingly dense exotic beasts and no New Land.
• A king-level exotic beast’s forces ambushed Qin Ze, and Brother Devour warned that he was inside their defensive line and reinforcements would keep coming.
• Qin Ze used Void Traversal and earth escape to evade the beasts, then decided to capture one and use its network to locate New Land.
• Qin Ze fused part of his Spirit with the captured exotic beast and heard fragments of its network, including the command, “Purge... all... heretics...”

Qin Ze learned the locations of seven New Lands by entering the exotic beasts’ communication channel, but Heaven noticed him and the channel administrator expelled him. Niuniu sent Battle General Black One to hunt for the intruder while the Strange Gods prepared ambushes at the New Lands.

• Qin Ze’s Spiritual Sea of Consciousness collapsed after he saw the eye in the geometric shape, severing his connection to the exotic beast and killing it.
• Qin Ze told Miss Sword Case that he had found seven New Lands, each guarded by king-level exotic beasts and supported by nearby Strange Gods.
• Qin Ze entered Void Traversal and headed deeper into the exotic beasts’ defenses.
• Niuniu summoned Thousand Faces, now called Battle General Black One, and ordered him to find a fly that had entered their territory, allowing him to command nearby garrisons if needed.
• Niuniu and the other dark figures confirmed that the Dark Brain loophole was patched and that ambushes awaited Qin Ze at all seven New Lands.

Qin Ze found a fluctuating spatial rift and used the Shelter Space to accelerate its growth into a new land. He arranged for Thousand Faces to mislead the nearby defenders while a clone drew the beasts inward.

• Qin Ze searched for unstable space between the fourth and fifth defensive rings and found a rift that could become a New Land.
• Thousand Faces told Qin Ze he had been sent out of the Tomb of the Gods and had authority to command nearby strange beasts and Strange Gods.
• Qin Ze had Thousand Faces order the defenders away from the rift, then opened the Shelter Space and accelerated the rift’s expansion.
• Thousand Faces arrived and confirmed he had transferred the nearby beasts away from Qin Ze’s position.
• Qin Ze sent a Level Five clone with Thousand Faces toward the center of the defensive rings to impersonate him and lure the beasts around.

Qin Ze’s accelerated reclamation produced an orange New Land covered in unusual exotic beast eggs, but several eggs later broke before hatching. He discovered that something was deliberately stealing the immature eggs’ membrane, and angrily vowed to stop the culprit.

• Qin Ze finished reclaiming the New Land and found it orange, with exotic beast eggs patterned in gold and dark red.
• Qin Ze removed the Shelter Space after Thousand Faces assured him that no exotic beasts were nearby and the Strange Gods were stationed at the defensive lines.
• Qin Ze waited as the eggs emerged from the soil and began watching over them each day.
• Qin Ze found two broken eggs and discovered their underdeveloped hatchlings were dead and their membranes had been torn apart.
• Qin Ze found more similarly damaged eggs over the next two days and realized something was deliberately stealing their membranes.
• Qin Ze declared that the thief had dared to steal from the God of Greed.

After thieves stole another exotic beast egg in the New Land, Qin Ze caught three followers of the Golden God and accused them of endangering the Abyss's races. He offered them a chance to explain, but the chapter ended before they revealed why they had come to steal.

• Qin Ze planted more than a hundred true sight wards and told Thousand Faces to kill any king-tier exotic beasts that discovered his scheme.
• At dawn, a clone spotted three thieves stealing an egg, then self-destructed to attack them; Qin Ze arrived and pinned the battered trio down with divine might.
• Qin Ze recognized that the thieves came from different civilizations and accused them of being spies who had endangered the myriad races.
• The furry leader offered to pay for the damage, while the alien-looking girl revealed that they followed the Golden God.
• Qin Ze lectured the three about their thefts, then dismissed his divine might and asked why they had come to steal.
• Qin Ze listed his many titles and alliances to reassure the thieves, and they stared at one another without answering.

Qin Ze learned that the Golden Family’s Golden God was weakening and traveled with Furui and the others to their underground settlement, hoping to recruit the god into the Alliance. He reached the family leader’s house, where he saw a glowing light bulb walking inside.

• The alien girl told Qin Ze that the Golden God was dying, and she explained how the Golden Family depended on the god’s protection from Abyssal Corruption.
• Qin Ze learned that the family had found the Source of Life in exotic beast eggs and had sent Furui and the others to collect more samples for the Golden God.
• Qin Ze decided to visit the Golden Family, and Furui used a golden nugget to take the group through the earth to the settlement deep underground.
• Furui led Qin Ze past the Golden Family’s powerful members to the leader’s house and knocked on the door.
• The stone door opened, and Qin Ze saw a glowing light bulb walking inside the house.

The leader of the Golden Family told Qin Ze how his people found and served the sleeping Golden God, whose fading power had left them vulnerable to Abyssal Corruption. Qin Ze met the Golden God beneath the settlement, and her spirit recognized him as he experienced a strange familiarity with her.

• The Golden Family leader bowed to Qin Ze and asked him to save the Golden God, recognizing that Qin Ze was a Star God.
• The leader recounted how he and other wanderers found the Golden God, formed the Golden Family, and received shelter from the Abyss.
• The leader explained that he could no longer sense the Golden God’s will and that Corruption was affecting the family, so some members had begun to leave.
• Qin Ze followed the leader through an underground passage and found the Golden God embodied in a colossal golden statue.
• Qin Ze knocked on the statue and asked to speak with her, causing her spirit to appear and tell him, “You’ve finally come.”
• Qin Ze felt a strange familiarity and saw fragmented images before asking the Golden God if she knew him.

Qin Ze spoke with the Golden God, who revealed that they were the Goddess of the Earth and had nearly exhausted their life force suppressing the Tomb of the Gods. The Goddess urged Qin Ze to pass through the Star Gate and unravel the Mystery in the Womb before the Strange Gods fully revived, then faded back into the statue.

• The Golden God told Qin Ze that Heaven might discover the Mystery in the Womb, and explained that the Strange Gods were guarding against them because they were suppressing the Tomb of the Gods.
• The Golden God said the Strange Gods and Star Gods could revive, but they had not taken part in the final battle and did not know how many Star Gods remained.
• The Golden God revealed that they had burned through their Source of Life suppressing the Tomb of the Gods and could no longer hold it back.
• The Golden God told Qin Ze their true name was the Goddess of the Earth and said the key to everything lay with him and the Star Gate, which had always been there.
• The Goddess of the Earth faded into the statue, and Qin Ze offered the Golden Family a choice between dying in place and joining the Myriad Races Alliance.
• The Golden Family's leader accepted Qin Ze's offer and pledged to join the Myriad Races Alliance.

Qin Ze returned to Outpost City to collect thirty thousand tree fruits, checked in with Second Sister and Star Eyes, then brought the fruit back to the Golden God. The Golden God absorbed the Source of Life and granted Qin Ze a portion of the Goddess of the Earth's authority, urging him to keep moving forward.

• Qin Ze returned to Outpost City and found Second Sister managing its affairs from his headquarters.
• Second Sister reported that Star Eyes had found no clues about the Strange God and that Outpost City had repelled two large attacks by exotic beasts.
• Qin Ze asked Star Eyes about the Goddess of the Earth and the Desolate God, then heard that Meng Die was nearby and avoiding Star Eyes.
• General Huan gave Qin Ze thirty thousand tree fruits, and Qin Ze teleported back to the Golden God.
• The Golden God absorbed the tree fruits' Source of Life and gave Qin Ze a portion of the Goddess of the Earth's authority.

Qin Ze harvested more than a hundred thousand exotic beasts and gave them to Thousand Faces as troops. He and Thousand Faces then began staging a battle to make a commotion and draw out king-class exotic beasts.

• Qin Ze told Thousand Faces to wait until the exotic beast eggs were ready, then suggested they stage a fight and use the Golden God information to help Thousand Faces report back to Niuniu.

• Qin Ze gave the herd to Thousand Faces, who was thrilled to have troops and received a Divine Vein mark so he could command them.
