Chapter Summaries

Ren Jialun attacked the Undying Body Academy, and Leo stood between him and the academy despite the vast gap between their levels. Leo survived Ren Jialun’s first blows and wounded him, but Ren Jialun turned his attention toward the academy’s panicking apprentices and low-level wizards.

• The Thunderstorm Giant stopped Ren Jialun from continuing to attack Benji, and Yaoyao stabilized Benji with a potion.
• Ren Jialun activated his Barren Hill Giant bloodline and challenged the Thunderstorm Giant, while onlookers feared Leo could not withstand a Level Three wizard.
• Ren Jialun struck first, but the Thunderstorm Giant defended the academy and stopped the punch after being sent flying.
• Ren Jialun attacked with a sweeping kick, and Leo activated his Gravity Domain and Ice Domain before countering with Thunder Plow Sweep.
• The Barren Hill Giant kicked the Thunderstorm Giant hundreds of meters away, but the Godslaying Staff pierced Ren Jialun’s leg and left a small wound.
• Ren Jialun ignored the Thunderstorm Giant and looked down at the Undying Body Academy’s frightened apprentices and low-level wizards.

Leo, as the Thunderstorm Giant, blocked Ren Jialun’s devastating strike with Nuclear Fission Grand Witchcraft, astonishing the wizards watching and proving that a Level Two wizard could unleash power above 15,000 points. He resumed facing Ren Jialun while assessing his remaining mana and defenses, and the clash remained unresolved.

• Ren Jialun brought a giant sword down toward the Undying Body Academy, but Leo’s Thunderstorm Giant form intercepted the attack.
• Yaoyao encouraged her teacher from hiding, and Leo fired Nuclear Fission Grand Witchcraft to clash with Ren Jialun’s sword energy.
• Leo’s energy pillar weakened the sword attack, and four lightning spells finished dispersing it; the watching wizards were awed by his power.
• Ren Jialun praised Leo’s attack and invited him to the Outstretched Wings Academy, while Leo used the pause to calculate another nuclear fission.
• Leo flew back to block Ren Jialun and assessed his mana, injuries, the suppression from his domains, and the defenses protecting him.

Leo endured Ren Jialun’s assault until Dean Roderick stopped the fight, then recovered from severe injuries while the Undying Body Academy won the three-academy war. After the war, Leo asked to meet the Indestructible Body Stigmata Great Wizard so he could return home, and learned why slave armies had not fought in the conflict.

• Leo used his defenses and healing to withstand Ren Jialun’s relentless attacks, but was badly injured and nearly out of mana.
• Roderick arrived and stopped Ren Jialun, declaring that the two opposing academies had lost; Ren Jialun then left to check on his injured wizards.
• Leo returned to his courtyard to recover, and after three months he had regained only about 60% of his strength while Benji faced a much longer recovery.
• Roderick explained that he had used Ren Jialun’s absence to attack and breach the Outstretched Wings Academy, securing victory in the three-academy war.
• Leo asked Roderick to take him to the Indestructible Body Stigmata Great Wizard, and they traveled to the barren demiplane.
• Leo learned that the Indestructible Body Stigmata Great Wizard had forbidden slave armies from fighting his academy because he had no slaves.

Leo received the Stone of Indestructibility’s secrets and learned that its powerful defensive system demanded immense energy, leaving even its level-six master with less than half the system completed. Choosing not to fuse with it, Leo departed the Undying Body Academy and sent Tao Mia a parting gift.

• The Indestructible Body Stigmata Great Wizard gave Leo a crystal ball containing knowledge about the Stone of Indestructibility.
• Leo learned that the Stone could strengthen its host’s defenses by consuming energy, and that the Indestructible Body Stigmata Great Wizard had completed less than fifty percent of its defensive system.
• Roderick warned Leo that few wizards had fused with the Stone and reminded him to keep its knowledge secret.
• Leo decided to think carefully before using the Stone, then said goodbye to the Indestructible Body Stigmata Great Wizard.
• Leo gave Roderick a wizardry ring for Tao Mia and left the Undying Body Academy, expecting seven or eight years of travel before reaching his wizard tower.

Leo returned from the Sword of Winter after fleeing a crowd of admirers, then reported a Jerry Clan slave who had schemed against him and reunited with Alice at his wizard tower. The chapter left Leo home with Alice, Yaoyao, Benji, and a rapidly growing Gulu Beast population.

• Leo arrived at the Sword of Winter and fled through Shadow Space after a crowd of wizards swarmed him and chased him.
• Leo and Benji evaded the wizards; after ten years of travel, Leo returned to the Tower of Elements and collected 9,120 energy crystals in subsidies.
• Leo confronted the Jerry Clan slave who had mocked him, threatened to report his scheme, and watched another slave order the culprit thrown into the cat den.
• Leo returned to his wizard tower and reunited with Alice, while Yaoyao greeted her and the Gulu Beasts welcomed them home.
• Leo noted that the Gulu Beasts had grown from 110 adults to over five thousand, with more than four thousand at Level One or above.

After returning home, Leo settled into a comfortable routine with Alice before turning his attention to the Stone of Indestructibility. He began a preliminary fusion experiment, and the mutated blood cells started consuming one another as they evolved.

• Leo returned to find Alice had made his wizard tower luxurious, but she left for the Ice Palace after dinner and dashed his hopes of spending the night together.
• The next day, Leo brought Alice body-tempering materials and stayed with her at the Ice Palace for a month before she sent him back to his work.
• While transcribing his stored knowledge, Leo secretly considered combining the Stone of Indestructibility with the energy from nuclear fission to strengthen his defenses.
• Leo prepared a blood sample with ground Stone of Indestructibility and a neutralizing agent, following the experimental records supplied by the Indestructible Body Stigmata Great Wizard.
• Under the microscope, the fused blood cells hardened and consumed energy, then began devouring one another until fewer than a hundred remained and Leo intervened.

Leo fused the Stone of Indestructibility into his body, gaining a much heavier and more durable physique while losing the rune arrays inscribed on his skin. The transformation left him in a ravenous, mindless state, and Yaoyao cleared the kitchen before Leo could attack anyone.

• Leo postponed breaking down the Stone of Indestructibility to see Alice off to the First-Level Wizard Tournament, and she left after promising to return with a good ranking.
• Leo ground down part of the Stone of Indestructibility and fused it into his body using a neutralizer, cloudy liquid, and a mud bath.
• Leo endured intense itching as his cells changed, then discovered that his body weighed about ten times more and all his inscribed rune arrays had vanished.
• Overcome by extreme hunger, Leo ran naked into the kitchen and devoured dozens of tons of food, while Benji and the Gulu Beasts fled on Yaoyao's orders.
• Leo's eyes lost some of their green glow after the food was gone, but he remained mindless and began biting kitchen utensils, including an iron pot.

After fusing with the Stone of Indestructibility, Leo lost his reason to overwhelming hunger and consumed food and energy crystals until Yaoyao helped him regain control. Leo then used nuclear fission to feed his body for ten days, raising his defense by 200 points and discovering that his body could absorb a small amount of elemental attacks.

• Yaoyao fed Leo energy crystals until the green light in his eyes faded and he regained his reason.
• Leo remembered his mindless rampage, dressed, and found that he had consumed all but 30,000 of his more than 160,000 energy crystals.
• Leo transformed into a Thunderstorm Giant and used nuclear fission to supply his starving cells with energy for ten days.
• Leo measured his new defense at 200 points, increasing his total defense from 2,400 to 2,600.
• Leo discovered that his Stone of Indestructibility-enhanced body absorbed a tiny amount of lightning energy when struck by his own sorcery.

Leo absorbed nuclear radiation and discovered that it caused a controllable mutation while slightly strengthening his body. He learned his energy absorption rate was only 0.02%, then became addicted to eating energy crystals as Yaoyao secretly hid the treasures in Shadow Space.

• Leo released the nuclear radiation stored in the Heart of the Mountain Range and swallowed it, allowing his cells to absorb it.
• Leo discovered that he could make a tiny fleshy bud emerge from and retract into his finger, and he suspected the Stone of Indestructibility had interacted with the radiation.
• Leo examined his cells and calculated that the Stone of Indestructibility occupied 0.02% of each cell, matching his current energy absorption rate.
• Leo began compulsively eating energy crystals, and Yaoyao warned him that he had already consumed a thousand.
• Yaoyao secretly removed the remaining treasures from Shadow Space while Leo continued eating, and Benji heard Leo scream from the wizard tower.

Yaoyao stopped Benji and the other Gulu Beasts from giving Leo energy crystals while Leo’s hunger drove him to consume valuable laboratory equipment. Yaoyao helped Leo perform nuclear fission until his hunger eased, and the chapter ended with Leo lamenting his losses as the Indestructible Body Stigmata Great Wizard recalled his own past hunger.

• Yaoyao persuaded Benji to hand over his wizard ring so he could not lend Leo the energy crystals Leo was expected to request.
• Benji confirmed that Leo had asked to borrow money, while Yaoyao warned the Gulu Beasts to stay away from him and went to check on him.
• Yaoyao discovered that Leo had eaten the magic array activator and other laboratory equipment, then helped him replenish his energy through nuclear fission.
• After seven days, Yaoyao stopped calculating, while Leo said his defense had increased by 500 points over the month and his hunger had weakened.
• Leo found Shadow Space empty and saw that the laboratory equipment was missing, while the Indestructible Body Stigmata Great Wizard remembered his own disastrous hunger after fusing with the Stone of Indestructibility.

Leo investigated the Stone of Indestructibility’s growth in his own cells and in Gulu Beast cells, discovering that each lifeform had an enhancement limit tied to its level and strength. He realized his hunger would stop only when his own cells reached their 0.7% limit, leaving him with an immense energy requirement and a goal that would greatly increase his defense.

• Leo found that Benji and the Gulu Beasts feared him because Yaoyao had warned them he might eat them after a failed experiment, and he returned to his tower to avoid frightening them.
• Leo cultured ten of his cells and found that the Stone of Indestructibility grew from 0.05% to 0.7% before the cells stopped absorbing energy.
• Leo tested cells from a level-one Gulu Beast, a level-two Gulu Beast, and Benji, finding their Stone of Indestructibility limits were 0.07%, 0.25%, and 1.1%, respectively.
• Leo concluded that the Stone’s limit depended on a lifeform’s level and strength, and that reaching his own 0.7% limit would end his hunger.
• Leo estimated that reaching 0.7% would require an astronomical amount of energy but would raise his defense beyond ten thousand points.

Leo used an enormous Energy Absorption Magic Array and nuclear fission to feed energy into his body and complete a 0.7% increase in strength. After more than a month, the array stopped when Benji was the last Gulu Beast able to sustain it, and Leo finally showed a faint sign of being full.

• Leo ordered Benji to gather the rank-one-and-above Gulu Beasts and made Yaoyao help him prepare for nuclear fission.
• Leo inscribed a giant Energy Absorption Magic Array with 1,037 nodes, and the Gulu Beasts amplified its output to draw energy from the surrounding region into him.
• Leo and Yaoyao began nuclear fission as Leo absorbed the incoming energy, while Benji watched the elemental tornado grow above the array.
• Over the following weeks, Gulu Beasts fainted in successive shifts as the array drained energy from across hundreds of kilometers; Benji eventually joined the remaining rank-two beasts to keep it running.
• After more than a month, Yaoyao and the Gulu Beasts could no longer continue, and the array stopped with Benji alone inside it.
• Benji sensed that Leo might finally be full, and Leo opened eyes flashing with blue lightning to meet his gaze.

Leo completed his Level Two defensive evolution after forty-five days of energy replenishment, then spent a year copying books before welcoming Alice after she passed the first elimination round. When Leo called Alice his girlfriend and she did not object, their relationship became official, but Alice insisted on continuing the competition to make up for Leo’s earlier withdrawal.

• Leo recovered his belongings, confirmed that his reinforced flesh had stopped absorbing energy, and completed his 7,000-point defensive evolution, bringing his defense to 11,400 points.
• Leo returned to copying books and studying, until Yaoyao told him a year later that Alice was about to finish the championship’s first elimination round.
• Leo waited with Yaoyao and Benji at the administrative office and welcomed Alice when she emerged after passing the round.
• Leo called Alice his girlfriend in front of the gathered wizards, and Alice blushed but did not object.
• Leo offered to let Alice skip the advancement rounds, but Alice said she wanted to go further to make up for his regret at withdrawing from the competition.

Alice competed in the first advancement round but was eliminated, and Leo helped her avoid discussing the loss before she withdrew to her room. Leo then privately asked Charlotte to identify Alice’s opponent and obtain scientific books and a hydrogen bomb manufacturing process.

• Leo promised to accompany Alice to the competition, and she entered the demiplane match before fully recovering her strength.
• Alice returned quickly and told Leo and Yaoyao that she had lost, then left for home without explaining the match.
• Leo invented a celebration for a Gulu Beast’s birth to spare Alice embarrassment, and she went into seclusion at the Ice Palace.
• Leo contacted Charlotte to ask who had faced Alice and requested hydrogen bombs, their manufacturing process, and a list of scientific books.
• Charlotte refused to provide the restricted hydrogen bomb process but agreed to obtain the books he could access.

Thirty years after the tenth-generation Gulu Beasts were born, Leo prepared for his first expedition since becoming a Level Two Wizard, while Alice chose not to accompany him. The Earth Pulse Stigmata Wizard led the expedition against a miniature Homo Sapiens World, and Leo departed after promising to return to Alice.

• A tenth-generation Gulu Beast was born with stronger life essence, giving Leo hope that the long-running breeding experiment would succeed.
• Alice told Leo that Jeft World's Gulu Beast population had exceeded three million, and Leo offered his accumulated dividends to support them.
• Leo finished copying the books and prepared for an expedition, but Alice refused to go with him so she could pursue her own path.
• Leo promised Alice he would return within twenty-five years and ask the Purple Flame Stigmata Wizard for permission to marry her.
• The Earth Pulse Stigmata Wizard announced a conquest expedition against the miniature Homo Sapiens World, and Leo left aboard the starship mothership as Alice watched.

Leo reviewed intelligence on the technologically advanced Homo Sapiens World and traveled with the expedition fleet, hoping to exploit his status and find valuable knowledge. The fleet reached the planet, where the Nilotites watched its arrival with fear as their aircraft gathered beneath it.

• Leo examined footage of the Homo Sapiens World and learned that its inhabitants relied on advanced technology rather than elemental energy.
• Leo declined command duties and requested hidden missions, then learned the expedition had none and that the starship mothership would depart in two days.
• Leo and Benji entered dormancy during the twelve-year voyage while Yaoyao remained apart from them.
• The mothership reached the Homo Sapiens World, and Leo awakened with Yaoyao and Benji as the fleet prepared to pass through the spatial barrier.
• The Nilotites spotted the enormous spacecraft, panicked briefly, and then watched uniformed responders restore order as hundreds of their aircraft gathered beneath it.

The wizard expedition encountered no immediate resistance as the Homo Sapiens World sought peaceful talks, and Leo was asked to lead negotiations. He accepted the assignment, scheduled to depart in three days.

• The command center ordered the wizards to hold position after the Homo Sapiens World requested communication, but Leo went out to inspect the aircraft with Benji and Yaoyao.
• A First-Level Wizard approached the aircraft, frightening their pilots and sending several craft crashing, while Leo judged the world too weak to pose a serious threat.
• The Homo Sapiens federation said it wanted to avoid war and explore the universe with wizard civilization, then requested a negotiating team visit its headquarters.
• The command center asked Leo to lead the negotiations because of his status and strength, and Leo agreed to leave in three days.

Leo and the wizards arrived in the Homo Sapiens World for negotiations, where their overwhelming power left the hosts terrified and compliant. After Leo demanded every book in the world as compensation for poor hospitality, he wondered why the Homo sapiens showed no resistance.

• Leo told Mashaji to handle the negotiations and security issues while he stayed out of the mission.
• The wizards reached a manor, where the Homo sapiens leader welcomed them and offered food and hospitality.
• Leo noticed that the Homo sapiens guards carried only cold weapons, despite their world's advanced technology.
• Leo ate all the food in the manor, then demanded that the Homo sapiens provide a copy of every book in their world.
• Mashaji threatened the Homo sapiens with his aura until their leader agreed to prepare twelve copies of every book by dawn.
• Leo observed the leader showing no sign of resistance and questioned whether the Homo sapiens valued knowledge or genuinely wanted to join wizard civilization.

Leo and the wizards tested the Homo Sapiens World’s submission before negotiating a passage and trade agreement, but the humans accepted every demand without resistance. With no sign of a hidden threat, Leo reported the agreement to the Earth Pulse Stigmata Wizard and turned to the books he had collected.

• Leo rejected Yaoyao’s suggestion to kill people and watched the wizards test the Homo Sapiens with minor demands, which they met with complete obedience.
• The Homo Sapiens leader delivered twelve mountains of books, and Leo and the other wizards stored them in their magical spaces and rings.
• For a month, the wizards found faults with meals, noise, and other inconveniences, while the Homo Sapiens resolved each complaint and showed no resentment.
• Mashaji announced terms for a spatial passage, trade, and passage fees, and the Homo Sapiens leader accepted them in hopes of gaining cultivation and a longer lifespan.
• The leader gave the wizards gifts, and Mashaji asked Leo whether the humans were hiding something; Leo found no evidence and told him to report to the Earth Pulse Stigmata Wizard.
• Leo returned to the mothership and prepared to study the Homo Sapiens’ books, while Benji remained aboard.

While searching the collected books, Leo found that the Homo Sapiens World’s knowledge was strangely primitive despite its advanced technology, and he suspected a hidden power or secret. He refused to warn the Earth Pulse Stigmata Wizard about the risk at Mount Sayeda and watched the signing ceremony from afar as the Homo sapiens gathered on the summit.

• Leo and Yaoyao searched their books and found no advanced scientific knowledge, prompting Leo to suspect that the Homo Sapiens World concealed a great secret.
• The command center told Leo that the Earth Pulse Stigmata Wizard would sign a contract on Mount Sayeda the next afternoon, but Leo declined the invitation and chose not to report his suspicions.
• Leo, Yaoyao, and Benji searched the books for information about Mount Sayeda, finding only myths about a god who supposedly lived at its summit.
• Leo wondered whether the god might be a real, undetected World Lord, despite Yaoyao’s insistence that the world had no supernatural forces.
• As the signing approached, Leo left the star mothership with Yaoyao and Benji and used Ice Mirror spells to watch the ship and Mount Sayeda from afar.
• Leo saw many smiling Homo sapiens gathered on Mount Sayeda’s summit, waiting for the wizards to arrive.
