Black Soluo advanced to Level Four, letting Leo experience the Laws of the Microscopic World and bringing his main body close to Level Five. After receiving the Returning Breath World's knowledge infusion about souls, Leo was stunned by what he learned.

• Black Soluo's advancement caused the Laws of the Microscopic World to descend, and Leo used them to connect fragments of law and approach the gates to Level Five before the experience ended.
• Leo's bloodline power surged toward a Level Five advancement, so he used the Energy Sealing Technique to suppress his body refinement strength and preserve his path as a wizard.
• Black Soluo's soul became solid, and his body grew into a 270-meter beetle as he completed his advancement to Level Four.
• Black Soluo received the Returning Breath World's knowledge infusion about souls, which Leo also absorbed through their connection.
• Leo reviewed the infused knowledge again and murmured that it was impossible.

Black Soluo advanced to level four, received puppets from the Returning Breath World, and began building strength while Leo searched the infused knowledge for a way to revive Alice. After finding none, Leo set Black Soluo on an expedition against the Little Red Snake World.

• Black Soluo met his guide, Yesula, who was shocked by Black Soluo’s strength and took him to the Luosha World.
• Yesula placed Black Soluo in a world with twelve newly advanced Lords of Souls and a million puppets to control.
• Black Soluo absorbed some of the puppets’ soul origins, grew stronger, and dismissed the other Lords of Souls as weak.
• Leo searched the Returning Breath World’s infused knowledge for a way to revive Alice, but found no such information.
• Leo vowed to bring Alice back, and Black Soluo reported that the Returning Breath World had approved his expedition against the Little Red Snake World and provided two million more puppets.

Black Soluo invaded the small world, shattered its barrier, and faced an army rallied by the World Will. As the little red snake led the world’s creatures against him, Black Soluo summoned three million puppets and began taking control of the stronger defenders.

• The little red snake saw a black dot beyond the sky as booms shook the world and cracked its barrier.
• The World Will warned the creatures of an otherworldly demon and urged them to defend their home.
• The little red snake rallied more than twenty thousand creatures, joining a worldwide army of over a billion that converged on Black Soluo.
• Black Soluo dismissed the weak army, opened a teleportation vortex, and killed the first level-one great apes with his aura and gaze.
• Black Soluo sent three million puppets to capture every creature at level one or above while his soul fluctuations turned nearby strong creatures into puppets.

Black Soluo expanded his puppet army by capturing the little red snake and thousands of his subjects, then confronted the two World Lords who appeared to defend their world. As Black Soluo revealed that an even more terrifying presence was about to emerge from a spatial rift, the world itself began resisting it.

• Black Soluo's aura killed most of the little red snake's subjects before they could reach him, forcing the snake to retreat with the survivors.
• Five great apes ambushed the little red snake, knocked him unconscious, and carried him and his captured subjects toward Black Soluo.
• The little red snake awoke surrounded by controlled creatures and realized Black Soluo had seized his subjects.
• Two great ape World Lords arrived, and the little red snake recognized them as gods of his world.
• The World Lords challenged Black Soluo, who dismissed their threat and said he regretted having to give his first battle after advancing to someone else.
• A spatial rift opened beside Black Soluo, releasing an overwhelming aura that made the world tremble and strike at the rift with lightning.

Leo’s forces invaded a small world, overwhelmed its defenders, and began capturing powerful creatures and stripping the world of resources. Leo planned to use the world’s destruction to fuel his advancement to Level Five, while Black Soluo prepared to control the captured souls.

• A powerful wizard emerged from the spatial rift, killed the two World Lords and the little red snake’s troops, and spared the snake as a specimen for experiments.
• Yaoyao ordered the forces to move valuable resources into Shadow Space, and Lord Yaoyao’s followers carried the little red snake through the rift.
• Leo and Black Soluo surveyed the devastated battlefield, and Leo sent Black Soluo to take control of the souls in Shadow Space’s Soul Towers.
• Yaoyao reported that twenty million Gulu Beasts, three million mechanical puppets, and five hundred thousand unmanned intelligent mechs would capture every Level One-or-higher creature and gather resources.
• Leo planned to take the world’s most valuable resources and then advance to Level Five there, using the energy of his advancement to destroy the world.

Leo’s forces conquered a small world, while Black Soluo amassed a vast puppet army to prepare for controlling the Black Metal Module. After four years of mining, Leo evacuated his forces and brought Black Soluo outside the world to attempt the dangerous fusion.

• Yaoyao explained that the academy’s unmanned mechas were a new first batch, performing at 60% of mechanical puppets in tests, and Leo told her to continue researching.
• Leo’s forces swept through the small world in five years, capturing its level-one-and-above creatures, and Black Soluo controlled 80 million puppets, increasing his army nearly thirtyfold.
• Black Soluo told Leo that he had controlled 200 million souls, and Leo ordered him to take control of the Black Metal Module after they moved the world’s resources.
• Leo revealed that he had created Black Soluo to control the Module and would sever the clone’s soul if the Module began assimilating it.
• After another four years, Leo stopped mining once 60% of the resources had been moved, evacuated all forces, and accompanied Black Soluo outside the world to begin the fusion.

Leo attempted to master the Black Metal Module through his clone, Black Soluo, using two hundred million soul skeletons to absorb its corruption. The effort avoided immediate failure but left the module slowly contaminating Black Soluo, so Leo still had not gained control of it.

• Leo had Black Soluo swallow the Black Metal Module’s shadow and prepared two hundred million soul skeletons to absorb its power.
• The module activated, transforming Black Soluo and beginning to contaminate his body as the soul skeletons poured into him.
• Yaoyao counted the skeletons as Leo watched the module remain uncontrolled, and Leo prepared to sever Black Soluo from his consciousness when the last souls were consumed.
• Yaoyao stopped Leo from striking and noticed that the module’s corruption had neither ended nor spread rapidly, suggesting a partial success.
• Leo sensed that the module was still slowly contaminating Black Soluo and estimated that it would take decades to consume him at the current rate.

Leo and Black Soluo defeated the Black Metal Module’s will, giving Black Soluo control of its metal-shaping powers. Leo then studied the module’s laws to prepare for level five, and his bloodline power surged toward advancement as the Energy Sealing Technique began to strain.

• Leo entered Black Soluo’s consciousness and helped his avatar overpower the Black Metal Module’s Black Soluo in the Land of Rules.
• Black Soluo swallowed the Black Metal Module, gained its liquefaction ability, and explained that he could use more of its power after Leo reached level five.
• Leo returned to his body, entered the world’s barrier, and joined Black Soluo in studying the metal module’s laws.
• The metal laws transformed Leo’s understanding of metal and caused the powers within him to change rapidly.
• Leo’s bloodline power erupted toward advancement, making the runes of the Energy Sealing Technique appear across his body as the technique began to flash.

Leo broke through to Level Five and became a six-hundred-meter Vajra Giant, whose power shattered the small world. Using the Black Metal Module, he drew buried metal into himself and grew into an eleven-thousand-meter giant as the world continued to collapse.

• Leo released his Level-Five Stigmata True Body and transformed into a six-hundred-meter silver Vajra Giant, tearing apart the small world.
• Leo tested his strength by destroying a distant mountain with a nuclear-fusion blast.
• Leo beckoned to Black Soluo, who threw him the Black Metal Module, and the treasure’s weight shattered the world barrier and caused half the world to face the vacuum of space.
• Yaoyao warned Leo that energy was leaking away, and Leo fed his energy into the Black Metal Module before pressing it to his chest and turning black.
• Leo used Metal Activation Enhancement Grand Witchcraft to draw metals out of the ground and absorb them, growing past two thousand meters and then to eleven thousand meters.

Leo sacrificed a collapsing world to supply the energy needed for his Indestructible Body to advance to level five, then returned to his wizard demiplane as his shadow talent began evolving. He sent Black Soluo to the battlefield to kill the Blue Dragon Bloodline Stigmata Wizard while the shadow space changed around Leo.

• Leo used the Godslaying Staff, Black Soluo, nuclear fusion generators, and his metal giant form to funnel the dying world's energy into his starving body.
• After fifteen days of draining the plane, Leo completed the Indestructible Body's evolution as the world vanished into the universe.
• Leo gave Black Soluo the Black Metal Module and ordered him to take the puppet army to the Returning Breath World and find a chance to kill the Blue Dragon Bloodline Stigmata Wizard.
• Black Soluo returned to the Returning Breath World, promising to share his new discoveries after Leo stabilized his advancement.
• Leo returned to his wizard demiplane, where his shadow talent began evolving and Yaoyao sent a ring containing World Lord corpses and fragments into the shadow space.

After advancing to Level-Five Stigmata Wizard, Leo saw his demiplane expand and assessed his greatly increased power. He had also fused the Black Metal Module’s metal laws with his microscopic-world laws, gaining the ability to trigger powerful fusion and fission reactions.

• Leo watched four reserve demiplanes approach, expanding his demiplane to four times its size as a reward for his advancement.
• Leo checked his attributes and found them close to their Level-Five limits, then considered how his equipment and elemental body tempering raised his attack power.
• Leo reflected that mastering his Level-Five abilities could raise his attack power to 3.9 million points, while his laws might let him exceed that limit.
• Leo realized the Black Metal Module’s metal laws had fused with his microscopic-world laws, giving him control over metal particles and their fusion and fission.
• Leo recalled detonating a distant mountain by triggering metal fusion and recognized that the module could let him initiate reactions involving as many as twenty atoms.

After advancing to level five, Leo recognized that his control over fusion could make him extraordinarily dangerous and decided to use his knowledge of the Metal Module to draw Beast Blood Boiling into advancing. Beast Blood Boiling agreed to try Leo’s method, and Leo’s demiplane was then visited by the level-six Guardian Wizard Garijivich.

• Leo tested his ability to trigger fusion in tritium and deuterium and realized he could cause devastating reactions inside living beings.
• Yaoyao advised Leo that helping Beast Blood Boiling master the Metal Module could make him a level-six ally who would draw the Supreme Lords’ attention away from Leo.
• Leo contacted Beast Blood Boiling through the Fate Wizard Book and offered a fabricated explanation for a method to overcome the Metal Module.
• Beast Blood Boiling discovered Leo had reached level five, congratulated him, and agreed to test the suggested method before ending the call.
• Garijivich, the level-six Guardian Wizard, appeared on Leo’s demiplane, and Leo welcomed him.

After advancing to level five, Leo received a veiled warning and compensation from Guardian Wizard Garijivich, then used Black Soluo’s position in the Lords of Souls’ command system to gather intelligence. As word of Leo’s advancement spread, other Stigmata Wizards sought his favor, and Leo considered forming his own war squad while ordering his academy to expand.

• Garijivich congratulated Leo on reaching level five, questioned his willingness to defend the Wizard Will, and left compensation in a wizard ring after warning him to make the right choice when the time came.
• Leo dismissed the Wizard World’s factional struggles, believing his strength would let him leave if its homeland fell.
• Black Soluo joined the war, defeated eighteen same-level Lords of Souls, gained level-five privileges, and applied to reinforce the world where the Blue Dragon Bloodline Stigmata Wizard was stationed.
• News of Leo’s advancement spread, prompting Stigmata Wizards to send congratulations and seek his support; Interstellar Wanderer asked to join Leo’s future war squad.
• Leo told Interstellar Wanderer he would invite him if his squad application succeeded, informed the academy of his advancement, and urged it to claim nearby territory.

After advancing to Level Five, Leo negotiated with Little Bookworm No. 007, who offered a way to find other little bookworms in exchange for Leo’s help. Leo then accepted the conditions for leading a team in the world war, including Golden Eye Piercing Illusions joining and the chance to claim up to five conquered worlds.

• The academy celebrated Leo’s advancement while its wizards followed Yaoyao’s orders to claim territory.
• Blue Dragon Heluoluo congratulated Leo and asked for his help, then Little Bookworm No. 007 put Leo to sleep and revealed that he knew about Leo’s secrets.
• Leo agreed to help Little Bookworm No. 007 find other little bookworms in exchange for learning how it monitored him, and received a fragment of its body as a guide.
• Leo gave the fragment to Yaoyao to use in the Shadow World, and they agreed to search for another little bookworm before learning how No. 007 watched them.
• Leo accepted the approved conditions for leading a world-war team and requested the Interstellar Wanderer Stigmata Wizard, Heluoluo, and a Level-Four Blue Dragon Bloodline Stigmata Wizard as members.
• The authorities approved all of Leo’s team requests.

After Shadow Space evolved into a self-sustaining miniature plane, Leo discovered its expanded resources and greatly increased shadow capacity. He revealed to the little red snake that he and Yaoyao had deceived him into exposing his world, then began advancing him to level three.

• Leo and Yaoyao explored Shadow Space after it evolved into Shadow Plane, a self-sustaining miniature world with complete laws.
• Leo found energy-metal and energy-crystal veins underground, then fed over ten million energy crystals into the plane to help them grow.
• Leo inspected the little red snake, who remained terrified and believed his death was inevitable.
• Yaoyao told the little red snake that he and Leo had posed as the Lord of the Universe and used his blood to locate his world.
• The little red snake realized that his attempts to contact the false Lord had led to his world's destruction.
• Leo declared that he would grant the little red snake enough energy to reach level three, and the plane's energy began transforming him.

Leo tested how the Shadow Plane’s altered laws could raise the little red snake to level three, then watched his clone Black Soluo battle the wizard army in the Forest Farm World. After Black Soluo killed a Stigmata Wizard and endured the attacks of four more without injury, the battlefield’s balance shifted around him.

• Leo explained that the little red snake would reach level three in three days and that the Shadow Plane could currently support beings only up to that level.
• Leo showed Yaoyao a live feed of Black Soluo leading puppet troops in the Forest Farm World and described the war’s current balance.
• The five Stigmata Wizards killed five Lords of Souls, then focused on the remaining Lords while World Lords engaged the puppet army.
• Black Soluo swallowed a level-four Stigmata Wizard in a swift solo kill, shocking both armies and validating his reputation as the strongest Level-Four Lord of Souls.
• The four remaining Stigmata Wizards attacked Black Soluo, but he charged through their powerful spells without showing any injuries.

Black Soluo used the black metal module’s defenses to kill two Stigmata Wizards in the Forest Farm World, prompting both sides to send reinforcements and place him in command. Back in the Shadow Plane, Leo learned of Black Soluo’s idea to use metallized souls in mecha artificial intelligence and assigned Yaoyao to test it before setting out to retrieve another universe-grade treasure.

• Blue Dragon Bloodline activated his dragon true body and struck Black Soluo, but Black Soluo bit through his neck and killed him without sustaining a scratch.
• Black Soluo led the puppet army in retreat, while the remaining Stigmata Wizards held back and both factions confirmed reports of the two wizard deaths.
• The Returning Breath World sent fifteen Lords of Souls to reinforce the Forest Farm World and gave Black Soluo command, while the wizard army dispatched seven Stigmata Wizards to kill him.
• Leo received the wizard ring containing the two Stigmata Wizards’ corpses and read Black Soluo’s message about combining metallized souls with artificial intelligence.
• Yaoyao agreed to lead experiments using metallized souls to improve mecha intelligence, and Leo took him to retrieve another universe-grade treasure.

After advancing to level five, Leo retrieved the Endless Pot’s shadow and planned to investigate how to control the treasure safely. He set thousands of shadows to search for other worlds, then brought the little red snake to his laboratory for an experiment.

• Yaoyao helped Leo pull the Endless Pot’s shadow from the Shadow World, and Leo decided not to bind the powerful Sword of Winter.
• Leo learned that the Endless Pot had been bound to the Returning Breath World and resolved to have Black Soluo gather intelligence before attempting to control it.
• Leo and Yaoyao returned to the Shadow Plane, where the little red snake had advanced to level three and begged Leo to spare him.
• Leo refused to take control of the little red snake’s soul and assigned 6,741 shadows to search for other worlds while leaving 3,000 to form a domain.
• Yaoyao took the metallized souls to the Wizard World to work on artificial intelligence, while Leo brought the little red snake to the laboratory and told him to lie on the operating table.

Leo led his newly assembled squad toward Thousand Pools World, where Returning Breath World's forces had reclaimed half the territory. After discovering fourteen concealed Lords of Souls blocking their arrival, Leo prepared to attack with Blue Dragon Heluoluo while the others guarded the mothership.

• Leo took the seat of honor aboard the mothership and welcomed Interstellar Wanderer, Blue Dragon Heluoluo, Golden Eye Piercing Illusions, and Sword Bearer into his squad.
• Leo explained that the squad had orders to clear Returning Breath World's armies from a medium-sized world, beginning with Thousand Pools World, and that he could earn up to five worlds by fully occupying them.
• Leo's squad arrived outside Thousand Pools World and saw a vast puppet army defending the barrier while the wizard forces inside refused to provide reinforcements.
• Golden Eye Piercing Illusions located fourteen hidden Lords of Souls—five level fives and nine level fours—and sent their positions to the squad.
• Leo ordered Sword Bearer, Interstellar Wanderer, and Golden Eye Piercing Illusions to guard the mothership, then chose to enter the world with Blue Dragon Heluoluo to eliminate the Lords of Souls.

Leo entered the Thousand Pools World and attacked the concealed Lords of Souls and enormous puppet army with devastating witchcraft. He destroyed millions of puppets and continued unleashing a massive thunderstorm across the battlefield.

• Leo bypassed the world barrier through the Shadow World and entered the Thousand Pools World, where he discovered fifteen concealed Lords of Souls among the puppet army.
• Leo used his domains to kill more than a million puppets and destroyed a Level-Four Lord of Souls with Tritium-Deuterium Fusion Great Witchcraft, killing millions more in the blast.
• Two more Level-Four Lords of Souls approached Leo under concealment, and he killed them with another pair of nuclear explosions.
• The Interstellar Wanderer recognized that Leo’s casual attack surpassed his own offensive power, while Golden Eye Piercing Illusions watched Leo closely.
• Leo unleashed Heaven-Descending Thunder Great Witchcraft, covering a vast area with thunderclouds and striking the puppet army with countless bolts of lightning.

Leo used his newly advanced level-five power to destroy most of the Lords of Souls and a vast puppet army, then opened a huge breach in the world barrier. He left the three surviving Level-Five Lords of Souls for Heluoluo and Interstellar Wanderer to fight.

• Leo detected the Lords of Souls approaching and prepared to attack while the other Stigmata Wizards were still outside the world barrier.
• Leo unleashed Tritium-Deuterium Fusion Great Witchcraft ten times, killing ten Lords of Souls, including one Level-Five Lord, and wiping out more than a hundred million puppets.
• The three surviving Level-Five Lords of Souls recognized Leo as the Atomic Control Stigmata Wizard and retreated in fear.
• Heluoluo and the others breached the world barrier, and Leo left the surviving Lords of Souls for Heluoluo and Interstellar Wanderer to handle.
• Leo used Tritium-Deuterium Fusion Great Witchcraft to expand the barrier breach to over ten thousand meters, then returned to the mothership.

Leo took command in Thousand Pools World, drove back its puppet armies, and began restoring the world while anticipating Returning Breath World's response. Five years later, he discovered that a large force—including a level-six Lord of Souls—was coming to ambush him.

• Leo sent the Sword Bearer and Golden Eye Piercing Illusions to fight the puppet armies while Yaoyao brought the mothership into Thousand Pools World.
• Leo ordered the wizards to eliminate the puppet armies within ten years, then sent his team back to hunt the remaining Lords of Souls.
• Leo read Returning Breath World's command system and learned that its leaders hoped to lure him out of the medium-sized world so a level-six Lord of Souls could kill him.
• Leo monitored Black Soluo's victories in Forest Farm World and relied on Returning Breath World's teleportation ritual to protect him from a deadly threat.
• Leo cleared the remaining Lords of Souls from Thousand Pools World and sent Yaoyao and others to restore its environment.
• Five years later, Leo learned that Returning Breath World had prepared ten level-five Lords of Souls, twenty level-four Lords of Souls, and a level-six Lord of Souls to ambush him.

Leo’s forces ambushed the puppet reinforcements and the Lords of Souls arriving in Thousand Pools World, slaughtering the puppets while the Stigmata Wizards and World Lords engaged the first wave. As a second wave appeared, Leo began targeting its Lords of Souls himself.

• Yaoyao mocked Returning Breath World’s depleted forces, and Leo ordered half the army to keep fighting while the rest prepared an ambush.
• Leo’s assembled army surrounded the teleportation zone in Thousand Pools World and unleashed a devastating attack as puppet troops poured through thirteen black vortexes.
• Golden Eye Piercing Illusions spotted ten infiltrating Lords of Souls, and Leo sent the Stigmata Wizards and World Lords to intercept them.
• Sword Bearer killed two newly advanced Level-Four Lords of Souls, while the veteran Level-Five Lords of Souls fought the Interstellar Wanderer and Heluoluo to a stalemate.
• A second wave of five Level-Five and seven Level-Four Lords of Souls began arriving, and Leo targeted the first Level-Four Lord with Tritium-Deuterium Fusion Great Witchcraft.

Leo used his mastery of the Power of Laws to destroy the Lords of Souls emerging from the black vortices and help Interstellar Wanderer and Heluoluo defeat three Level-Five enemies. When no further Lords of Souls appeared despite the continuing puppet attacks, he searched Black Soluo’s memories and discovered the Returning Breath World had changed its strategy at the last minute.

• Leo compressed fusion reactions into energy spheres and killed the concealed Level-Four and Level-Five Lords of Souls as Golden Eye Piercing Illusions revealed their locations.
• Leo cleared the nuclear aftermath and tore apart more than a million puppets near the black vortices with a casual wave.
• Leo crippled three Level-Five Lords of Souls, and Interstellar Wanderer and Heluoluo finished them off in less than ten minutes.
• The group waited for the remaining Lords of Souls, but none appeared, even as more puppet armies came through the black vortices.
• Leo searched Black Soluo’s memories and found that the Returning Breath World had changed its strategy at the last minute.

Leo learned that Returning Breath World planned to lure him to the world barrier for an attack by a Level-Six Lord of Souls, but he waited for the trap to unfold. After discovering a living being connected to one of his Shadow Plane strands, he faced eight Lords of Souls attacking the barrier and taunted them while preparing for the hidden threat.

• Leo let the puppet armies teleport into Thousand Pools World and ordered the wizards to clear them out after a Level-Four Lord of Souls died and the vortexes closed.
• Tortai reported that one of Leo’s shadow strands had connected with a living being, and Yaoyao promised him a Dragon Blood Treasure Fruit for every world he helped contact.
• Leo waited half a year without hearing from the being before eight Lords of Souls attacked Thousand Pools World’s barrier, including two Level-Five Lords and six Level-Four Lords.
• Leo used Shadow Walking to reach the barrier, invited the attackers inside, and watched as it repeatedly healed their small breaches.
• Leo spotted the hidden Level-Six Lord of Souls, retreated several hundred miles, and let the attackers resume their assault while they challenged him to come out and fight.
