Leo survived behind the Hundred-Page World, while the blasts killed three Myriad Beasts World Supreme Lords and left the remaining Crystal Giant Supreme Lords weakened and surrounded.

• After a Crystal Giant Supreme Lord self-destructed, Yaoyao ordered his forces to stop attacking, take cover behind energy crystals, and close the Shadow Plane's spatial rifts.

• Leo saw white spots spreading across his, Yaoyao’s, Black Soluo’s, and Baturu’s soul statues, which began merging into the black slab.
• Yaoyao could not explain the mutation, and Leo could only watch as the statues melted into the slab while the World Tree’s sealed soul remained unaffected.

• The gathered wizards turned their attention to Bloodline Controller and the silent old wizard seated opposite him.

• Dragon Enslaver stopped Sword of Winter from opening the passage to the Crystal Giant World, and the six wizards decided to report back and wait for reinforcements.

• Leo returned to the Barbarian World after conquering the Crystal Giant World and other worlds, leaving the resurrected Supreme Lords in the Myriad Beasts World as a trail for the Wizard World.
• Yaoyao summoned Leo to the Shadow World, where he found the black slab had expanded to cover an entire world after his Shadow Plane absorbed the Crystal Giant World’s world origin power.
• Yaoyao reasoned that Leo’s soul and evolving Shadow Talent had triggered the slab’s change and that Leo might be the key to life arising in the Shadow World.

Leo gave Yaoyao a piece of his soul to study how the Shadow World might give rise to life, while he prepared to advance through the Shadow Plane. As the Wizard World searched for him, Leo focused on strengthening his forces and decided to plunder worlds to accelerate the Shadow Plane’s growth.

• Leo agreed to let Yaoyao experiment with a fragment of his soul wrapped in shadow, hoping to discover how the Shadow World could create life and help him advance to Supreme Lord.

• Leo boosted Little Boss's absorption of the world's Power of World Origin, then took the well-fed Little Boss and escaped through a spatial rift before the Supreme Lords could reach him.

Leo used the racial karmic connection to lead Cosmic Wanderer and the other Supreme Lords on a fruitless pursuit, then destroyed a world under Undying Body’s rule to draw suspicion onto him. After meeting Baturu and Black Soluo to prepare for war with the Wizard World, Leo returned to the Shadow World, where Yaoyao showed him a new raised spot on the black slab.

• Leo stayed ahead of Cosmic Wanderer and the other Supreme Lords, leading them through multiple worlds until their racial karmic connection expired after more than a hundred years.
• Cosmic Wanderer and the others found the destroyed Forest Sea Great World, realized Leo had anticipated their pursuit, and received a message that Undying Body was on his way to investigate.
• Leo met Baturu and Black Soluo in the Shadow Plane and explained how he had used Undying Body’s advancement and the destroyed world to divert the Wizard World’s attention.
• Leo, Baturu, and Black Soluo agreed to prepare for war, with Leo staying hidden while the others led the fighting if the Wizard World found them.
• Leo returned to the Shadow World, where Yaoyao showed him a tiny raised spot that had appeared on the black slab and said it reflected another change in Leo.

Leo and Yaoyao discovered that major changes to Leo, including self-inflicted injuries, caused the black slab in the Shadow World to grow, though the effect eventually weakened. When the Wizard World prepared to sacrifice giants and pureblood dragons to locate him, Leo saw a chance to enter the Dragon Enslaver’s hidden dragon worlds.

• Leo tested whether harming himself changed the black slab, and Yaoyao observed its bulge grow as he repeatedly tore off his regenerating arm and tried other forms of injury.
• After decades of experiments, Leo stopped when the Fate Wizard Book revealed that the Wizard World planned to sacrifice the giants in the Giant World and pureblood black dragons to track him and his Hundred-Page World.
• Leo realized the Dragon Enslaver would have to open his hidden dragon worlds to provide the dragons for the sacrifice, giving him an opportunity to reach them.
• Leo appeared in a dragon-filled world, where Dragon King Kalu and Fanyaxis, Wings of Death, bowed and greeted him.

Leo prepared the dragons under his command for war with the Wizard World and learned that Kalu had secretly contacted hundreds of thousands of enslaved dragons. The Wizard World identified 130 worlds connected to Leo’s forces, and Leo ordered them turned into prolonged battlefields while planning a counter-expedition.

• Leo told Kalu that his World Lord dragons would fight the Wizard World and revealed an opportunity to contact the enslaved dragons; Kalu agreed to help rescue them.
• Elemental Controller sacrificed the giants, including their God, Kampas, to create a blood-red bead that helped locate giant forces under Leo’s command.

• Kalu secretly contacted the enslaved dragons using a racial technique, and Leo ordered the dragons to prepare for the coming war.
• Leo sent the locations of the 130 worlds to Black Soluo and Baturu, instructing them to withdraw some troops and make the battles costly.
• Black Soluo and Baturu proposed attacking Wizard World territory, and Leo ordered their expeditionary army to depart in twenty years.

Stigmata Wizard Wrath Warhammer led ten World Lords to invade World No. 1, one of 130 worlds targeted in the war against the traitor Atomic Control. They breached the world barrier and began battling its defenders, who fought to exhaust the wizard forces and showed little fear of death.

• Wrath Warhammer briefed the ten World Lords on their mission to occupy worlds under Atomic Control and promised them access to wizard knowledge and war spoils.
• The mothership reached World No. 1, where Wrath Warhammer and the ten World Lords faced ten defenders: five level-fives and five level-fours.
• Wrath Warhammer transformed into his Thorn Giant True Body and smashed open the world barrier, while the wizard forces attacked the breach.
• The defenders waited until the barrier was badly torn before attacking, aiming to wear down the invaders and using reckless tactics that made the wizards wary of self-destruction.
• The mothership fired its cannons at three Level-Four World Lords, but they escaped the attack, and the battle continued with both sides engaging cautiously.
• Wrath Warhammer taunted the Level-Five Lord of Souls about being controlled by Atomic Control, but the Lord of Souls responded with reverence rather than anger.

Wrath Warhammer led the wizard expeditionary army against Atomic Control’s forces, first confronting the controlled World Lords and then landing to face their disciplined army. The armies began their battle, with countless attacks filling the battlefield.

• Wrath Warhammer’s army struggled to defeat ten controlled World Lords, whose threatened self-detonations repeatedly forced the wizards to retreat.
• The level-five Lord of Souls yielded the world barrier, and Wrath Warhammer ordered the mothership to land despite his suspicions.
• Wrath Warhammer recognized the enemy army’s discipline and wizard-style formations, suspected Atomic Control had built it from defecting wizards and other forces, and ordered his army to proceed cautiously.
• Wrath Warhammer ordered the attack as both sides’ World Lords locked onto one another and watched the lower-level battle.
• The two armies reached attack range and unleashed a massive barrage of spells and other attacks.

Wrath Warhammer realized that the opposing army had opened the Wizard System to other races and could coordinate every soldier, allowing it to maintain its strength while the wizard expeditionary army weakened. As the battle turned into a likely defeat, Liaoya Quanchi watched his world's subjects suffer a massacre.

• Wrath Warhammer noticed that the opposing army's spell attacks matched the wizard army's despite having fewer apparent wizards, and concluded that a traitor had opened the Wizard System to other races.
• Wrath Warhammer saw the enemy evade attacks, transform magic arrays, and rapidly rebuild formations with coordination beyond anything the Wizard World could achieve.
• The wizard army's attacks weakened as its arrays were broken, while the enemy maintained its formations and exploited vulnerabilities in the other World Lords' and slave armies.
• Wrath Warhammer accepted that the expeditionary army had lost, while the Lord of Souls watched him closely and prevented him from intervening.
• Liaoya Quanchi saw the enemy target the weakest parts of the combined forces and slaughter the subjects he had brought from his world.

The Wizard World’s expeditionary armies suffered heavy losses against their subjects’ stronger forces, while Wrath Warhammer tried to steady morale and fought a stalemate among the World Lords. The Supreme Lords reviewed reports of defeats across the expedition worlds before the resurrected Baturu confronted them.

• Liaoya Quanchi begged Wrath Warhammer to help the battlefield after the Fang Clan lost forty percent of its warriors, but Wrath Warhammer threatened to kill anyone who undermined morale.
• Wrath Warhammer warned the Lords of Souls that their army would run out of replacements, and the level-five Lord of Souls challenged him to resume their fight.
• Twenty-one World Lords battled to a stalemate as hundreds of millions of troops fought below them.
• Five Supreme Lords reviewed reports showing the expeditionary armies were suppressed across all 35 worlds they had reached, with low-level losses exceeding sixty percent in World No. 112.
• Baturu appeared before the Supreme Lords, and Cosmic Wanderer recognized him as the barbarian Supreme Lord who had previously self-destructed.
• Baturu mocked the Supreme Lords for launching a surprise war without warning the other worlds.

Baturu arrived before Cosmic Wanderer and the other Supreme Lords to announce that Leo’s forces were declaring war on the Wizard World, then tried to leave. Sword of Winter intercepted him, and the chapter ended with Baturu under mounting pressure as he used the Eye of Destruction to threaten his opponents.

• Cosmic Wanderer and four other Supreme Lords confronted Baturu, who revealed a duplicate of Sword of Winter and said Leo’s forces would fight the Wizard World on the battlefield.
• Baturu mocked the wizard army and tried to depart, but Sword of Winter blocked his escape and attacked him.
• Dragon Enslaver, Blue Heart Demon, and Bloody Hunter surrounded the combatants while Cosmic Wanderer watched for a chance to capture Baturu alive and trace Leo through their shared soul.
• Sword of Winter proved stronger in their duel, wounding Baturu repeatedly until Baturu revealed the Eye of Destruction and threatened him with its Light of Imprisonment.
• Sword of Winter ignored the threat and attacked relentlessly, leaving Baturu’s defenses unable to prevent a succession of penetrating wounds.

Cosmic Wanderer saved the Sword of Winter from Baturu’s self-detonation and warned the Supreme Lords about the danger posed by the traitor Atomic Control. In the Shadow Plane, Leo sent Benji to a battlefield so the Gulu Beast Clan could earn its standing through military merit.

• Baturu imprisoned the Sword of Winter, then self-detonated as Cosmic Wanderer shielded him and the other Supreme Lords fled.
• Cosmic Wanderer and the Sword of Winter survived the blast with injuries, and Cosmic Wanderer warned the others that Atomic Control’s avatars could return and that his forces were dangerous.

• Leo told Benji that the Gulu Beast Clan needed to prove its worth on the battlefield and revealed that he had chosen a war for him.
• Benji thanked Leo and promised to do his best to earn a better future for his clan.

Benji left to prove the Gulu Beast Clan deserved its share of resources, while Leo endured the pain of Baturu’s self-detonation and discovered it had changed the Shadow World’s black slab. After the Wizard World sent reinforcements, Leo ordered matching reinforcements for his side, and Purple-Gold Vine realized the Fate Wizard Book was giving Leo access to the Wizard World’s secrets.

• Leo reassured Benji that their bond protected the Gulu Beast Clan, and Benji left determined to prove his people deserved their resources.
• Leo entered the Shadow World and found that Baturu’s self-detonation had turned a protrusion on the black slab into a crude statue-like mound.
• Yaoyao urged Leo to conduct more self-detonation experiments, but Leo chose to wait for Baturu to revive and continued reviewing battle reports.
• The Wizard World responded to Baturu’s declaration of war by mobilizing Stigmata Wizards and World Lords, and its first reinforcements arrived through spatial passages.
• Leo ordered Purple-Gold Vine to open passages to War Worlds 1, 14, 45, 47, and 85 and send reinforcements matching the Wizard World’s strength.
• Purple-Gold Vine saw information in Leo’s Fate Wizard Book and concluded it had betrayed the Wizard World, leaving Leo able to monitor the civilization’s communications.
