Chapter Summaries

Leo learned that Black Skull Academy’s raids were driven by the Black Skull Stigmata Wizard’s experiments, then volunteered for the battlefield’s three most difficult missions. He ordered the defenders to draw the slave armies toward a spatial rift and arrived as they struggled to contain millions of enemies.

• Leo pieced together how Black Skull Academy had used apprentice tournaments to seize people for experiments, but recognized that the secrets behind the undying wizards were beyond his reach.
• Leo went to the command center and offered to handle three nearby missions at once if the defenders drew the enemy slave armies together.
• The command center ordered wizard teams to lure the slave armies toward the spatial rift, and Leo departed aboard a warship for the battlefield.
• Defending wizards gathered millions of modified slave armies near the rift, where their outnumbered forces fought to contain them while waiting for Leo.

Leo arrived as the wizard squads faced defeat and used his six domains and other attacks to slaughter the millions of slaves pouring through a spatial rift. He stabilized the defensive line and rift, then sent the exhausted squads back to lure more slaves while withholding the promised relief, leaving their fate in danger.

• As the wizard squads neared collapse, Leo descended into the slave army and killed tens of thousands of slaves at a time with his six domains.
• Leo ordered the wizard squads to drive the modified slaves toward him and positioned himself beside the spatial rift, where he killed the incoming slaves.
• Within half a day, Leo and the wizard squads had slaughtered the millions of slaves surrounding them, and Leo requisitioned the surviving wizards to keep luring more enemies to him.
• Leo told the command center that the defensive line and spatial rift were stable and requested more wizards, though he had not arranged relief for the squads.
• Yaoyao questioned Leo’s treatment of the wizard squads, and Leo replied that everyone had to pay for what they wanted.

Leo used his six domains to kill the modified slaves pouring through the spatial rift and pushed central command to send him even larger armies. He planned to kill slaves until Black Skull appeared, hoping to force a confrontation with the Stigmata Wizards despite the risk of exhausting his bloodline.

• Leo ordered the remaining wizards to lure more modified slaves to the spatial rift, then killed several hundred thousand within minutes.
• Central command proposed using a hundred thousand wizards and a million slaves to drive armies toward Leo, and he agreed to take slaves from as far as two thousand li.
• Leo demanded that central command create at least twenty spatial rifts to bring him more slave armies.
• Leo told Yaoyao that he needed to draw the Stigmata Wizards into action so he could face the Purple Flame Stigmata Wizard alone.
• Leo planned to kill a hundred billion slaves to force Black Skull to appear, estimating that he could last a month by overexerting his bloodline and using potions.

Leo used himself as bait to draw Black Skull into the war, while the command center built a killing ground around him and funneled slave armies into his six domains. Black Skull responded by sending powerful slave forces against Leo, who continued slaughtering them as his domains absorbed their energy.

• The command center opened thirty-one spatial rifts and built Polyhedral Fortress barriers to funnel slave armies toward Leo, allowing him to kill thousands of slaves every second.
• Leo's expanding kill count strengthened his six domains, while the command center used the reprieve to rotate frontline wizards and reinforce defensive lines.
• On the third day, the command center detected a force of at least a million level two slaves and a hundred thousand level three slaves approaching through the rifts, and warned Leo that Black Skull was targeting him.
• Leo examined and crushed a Tiger Beastman, then welcomed the approaching armies as proof that Black Skull had noticed him.
• Leo's six domains slaughtered the level two slaves, shrinking their reach from six thousand meters to four thousand as nearby wizards watched his overwhelming power.

Leo let the Level Three slaves emerge and killed them with amplified spells as he adapted to his newly gained power and increased the Vengeance Giant’s strength. After an eye-beam restored a modified slave’s consciousness, Leo killed him and told Yaoyao to conceal what had happened.

• Leo concluded that Black Skull and the otherworldly World Lord likely cooperated warily, and that only Tiger Beastmen had been modified to the limits of Level Three.
• The Vengeance Giant allowed the Level Three slaves to approach, then killed them with lightning and other powerful spells while gathering their blood to increase his amplification.
• A nearby Level Three Great Wizard doubted his own abilities after seeing Leo kill Level Three slaves with ordinary magic.
• Leo’s eye-beam made a modified Level Three slave scream, apparently restoring his consciousness, before Leo snapped his neck and reduced him to powder.
• Leo told Yaoyao to claim that he had screamed and insisted that Yaoyao had seen nothing.

Leo continued his slaughter while waiting for the Black Skull Stigmata Great Wizard to appear, and his killings made him famous across the Wizard World. After half a month, Black Skull arrived with fourteen World Lords, and Leo recognized the Purple Flame Stigmata Wizard among them as his ultimate target.

• Leo discovered two familiar runes forming in his sea of consciousness, touched them, and sealed his eyes to keep them shut.
• Leo urged the command center to send more slaves, while wizards learned he had killed as many as seventy million in a day and speculated about his medal.
• Leo continued killing for half a month, accumulating more than five hundred million kills without showing fatigue.
• Black Skull Stigmata Great Wizard appeared and confronted Leo, bringing fourteen World Lords through a spatial rift.
• Leo declared that Black Skull was a wanted traitor and refused his offer of nurturing, while focusing his mental power on the Purple Flame Stigmata Wizard.

Leo’s attempt to attack the Purple Flame Stigmata Wizard was interrupted when Undying Body and thirteen other Stigmata Great Wizards arrived to confront Black Skull and his fourteen World Lords. As the battle raged beyond Leo’s reach, he hid nearby and waited for a chance to take revenge, while Yaoyao reported the fighting to him.

• Black Skull mocked Leo’s vengeance and sent fifteen black skulls to devour his electric attacks, but Undying Body crushed the skulls and rescued him.
• Undying Body summoned thirteen Stigmata Great Wizards, surrounding Black Skull and the fourteen World Lords as the gathered powers began destabilizing the world.
• Undying Body sent Leo far from the battlefield and warned him to stay out of the fight, so Leo hid and waited for a chance to confront the Purple Flame Stigmata Wizard alone.
• Yaoyao watched the battle and told Leo that the World Lords kept recovering from devastating attacks, while Black Skull’s skulls attacked across the battlefield.

Leo’s Vengeance Giant ambushed the regenerating Purple Flame Stigmata Wizard and battered through his defenses, but the wizard survived and prepared a counterattack. The chapter ended with the wizard’s flame-wreathed palm aimed at the exhausted giant.

• Yaoyao told the Vengeance Giant that the Indestructible Body Stigmata Great Wizard had thrown the regenerating Purple Flame Stigmata Wizard’s corpse half toward them, giving Leo a chance to attack.
• The Vengeance Giant used all six domains to weaken the Purple Flame Stigmata Wizard, then pierced his protective flames with Atomic Breath and shattered his head.
• The Purple Flame Stigmata Wizard’s head regenerated, and Leo’s fifteen nuclear explosions failed to break through the flames.
• Leo used Shadow Walking to return and repeatedly struck the wizard’s protective flames with the Godslaying Staff until they broke.
• The Vengeance Giant shattered the wizard’s regenerating head and neck, but stopped when the Purple Flame Stigmata Wizard aimed a flame-filled palm at him.

Leo pursued the Purple Flame Stigmata Wizard as the wizard’s first strike left the Vengeance Giant gravely wounded. After restoring himself by draining nearby life and stimulating his bloodline, Leo launched a desperate close-range attack, but the Purple Flame Stigmata Wizard’s protective flames began burning him alive.

• The Purple Flame Stigmata Wizard recovered his head, struck the Vengeance Giant with a casual blow, and pursued him toward a defensive line.
• The Polyhedral Fortresses identified Leo and then warned that the traitorous Purple Flame Stigmata Wizard was approaching, prompting the wizards to activate their defenses and request reinforcements.
• The Vengeance Giant rose from the impact crater, drained all life within sixteen kilometers to restore his armor, and stimulated his bloodline to heal his severe injuries.
• Yaoyao warned Leo that the Purple Flame Stigmata Wizard could kill him with one strike, but Leo prepared to confront the wizard rather than retreat.
• Leo used his six domains to weaken the Purple Flame Stigmata Wizard, stepped through the shadows, and wrapped the wizard in a bear hug.
• The Purple Flame Stigmata Wizard’s protective purple flames burned through Leo’s ice and defenses, while Leo tried and failed to crush the flames with his strength.

Leo broke the Purple Flame Stigmata Wizard free from Black Skull’s control, but their battle left both men apparently dead. The Purple Flame Stigmata Wizard passed his legacy and a warning about Black Skull to Leo before they fell, and a giant hand carried their bodies away.

• The Vengeance Giant shattered the Purple Flame Stigmata Wizard’s protective flames, then used the runes in his eyes to restore the wizard’s reason and make him feel pain.
• Leo struck the Purple Flame Stigmata Wizard with a headbutt, and the wizard drew him into his shattered sea of consciousness.
• The Purple Flame Stigmata Wizard told Leo he had escaped Black Skull’s control, apologized over Alice’s death, and transferred his memories and legacy to him.
• The Purple Flame Stigmata Wizard warned Leo not to seek revenge against Black Skull before reaching Level Six, then died as Leo lost consciousness.
• The watching wizards believed Leo and the Purple Flame Stigmata Wizard had perished, until a hundred-meter hand took both of their bodies away.

Leo recovered in the cultivation chamber after killing the Purple Flame Stigmata Wizard, but his body and source power were severely damaged. He learned that a Special-Class Wizard Medal could grant him one request of the Supreme Lord and hoped to use it to resurrect Alice.

• Leo woke to find his body aged and near collapse, and the Indestructible Body Stigmata Great Wizard said he would need centuries of rest to recover.
• Leo recognized that the Indestructible Body Stigmata Great Wizard had suppressed the Purple Flame Stigmata Wizard during their fight, helping Leo secure his revenge.
• Leo told the Indestructible Body Stigmata Great Wizard that the Purple Flame Stigmata Wizard had left him his inheritance and instructed him to seek a Special-Class Wizard Medal by revealing how to counter modified souls.
• The Indestructible Body Stigmata Great Wizard explained that only the Supreme Lord could award the medal, which allowed its holder to make one request of the Supreme Lord.
• Leo asked the Indestructible Body Stigmata Great Wizard to report the matter, privately wondering whether the Supreme Lord could resurrect Alice.
• The Indestructible Body Stigmata Great Wizard left to consult the other Stigmata Wizards, and Leo saw that Yaoyao was safe before returning to rest.

Leo told an illusory lord how he had obtained the Soul-Splitting Secret Technique and received tentative promises of a Special-Class Wizard Medal, Earth, and Purple Flame Academy’s territory. After learning Alice could not be resurrected, Leo asked Undying Body why he and Lord Beast Blood Boiling were helping him, prompting Undying Body to warn him to stay quiet.

• Leo explained that he had found the Soul-Splitting Secret Technique in Black Tomb World and that it had countered Black Skull’s modifications.
• The illusory lord confirmed the technique appeared valuable, promised Leo a Special-Class Wizard Medal if it qualified, and said Earth would be placed under his name.
• Leo asked to resurrect Alice, but the illusory lord said her death could not be reversed and refused.
• Leo asked for Earth instead, and the illusory lord agreed to grant it once Leo received his medal; he also assigned Leo Purple Flame Academy’s territory instead of Purple Flame Stigmata Wizard’s full estate.
• After the illusory lord left, Leo asked Undying Body why he and Lord Beast Blood Boiling were helping him, and Undying Body denied any special reason and warned him to watch his words.

After recovering enough to walk, Leo received approval for his Special-Class Wizard Medal, but his battle with the Purple Flame Stigmata Wizard had left him and the Godslaying Set severely weakened. He learned that he could not return to Wizard World until Black Skull was dealt with, and discovered that the medal embodied the Wizard Will.

• Leo submitted the Soul-Splitting Secret Technique and intelligence about Black Skull, then spent a year waiting for his medal application to be reviewed.
• Leo examined the damaged Godslaying Set and realized that his depleted Bloodline Power and frail body had stripped away most of his former strength.
• Yaoyao comforted Leo and advised him to recuperate for several centuries while his Bloodline Power recovered.
• Undying Body told Leo that his Special-Class Wizard Medal application had been approved and handed him the medal, but said he could not return while Black Skull remained a threat.
• Leo recognized the medal's rippling surface as the Wizard Will made manifest and discovered that touching it caused him a moment of shock.
• Leo pinned the medal beside his other three and noted its defensive barrier, purchase discounts, and increased annual energy-crystal subsidy.

Leo hid in the Indestructible Body Stigmata Great Wizard’s palace while recovering and waited for Yaoyao to repair his damaged Godslaying Wizard Robe. Five years after Leo shared the Soul-Splitting Secret Technique, the war was still stalled, and Undying Body admitted little about why.

• Leo learned from Yaoyao that Black Skull’s army of modified slaves kept the war at a stalemate and that the wizard army had not begun a counterattack.
• Leo asked Yaoyao to repair the Godslaying Wizard Robe, and Yaoyao demanded a long list of supplies before taking the robe and materials.
• Yaoyao repeatedly took more supplies from Leo’s Shadow Space over the next two years, eventually emptying half of it before stopping.
• Undying Body visited Leo, praised his recovery, and claimed the rebellion would be suppressed soon, though Leo recognized he was lying.
• Leo told Undying Body that he had asked the lord to resurrect his wife, and Undying Body agreed that the dead could not be brought back.

Leo learned that he had missed a chance to use the Special-Class Wizard Medal to advance toward Stigmata, but he remained focused on reclaiming Earth and returning home. As a Supreme Lord began draining and tearing apart the world, Undying Body urged Leo to study the resulting changes in its laws.

• Undying Body told Leo that the Purple Flame Stigmata Wizard had intended the Special-Class Wizard Medal to help Leo advance to Stigmata, and regretted that Leo had asked for a planet instead.
• Leo accepted that he had missed the opportunity and heard from Undying Body that they might return within a year; Undying Body also ordered him to keep the Soul-Splitting Secret Technique secret.
• The sky darkened as a Supreme Lord began draining the world's energy, and Undying Body appeared beside Leo to observe the event.
• The energy dwindled until the world began to shake and its crust started tearing apart; Undying Body explained that the world would fall from a large world to a medium world.
• Undying Body told Leo to observe the changes in the world's laws, and Leo released his mental power to study them.

Leo witnessed a clash between two Supreme Lords and learned that Black Skull’s betrayal involved a rival World Cluster. After a mysterious tower captured nearly everyone, Leo recorded what he could before he and the surviving forces received orders to return to the Wizard World.

• The ground tore open as volcanic eruptions shook the world, and two Supreme Lords fought beneath a black curtain in the sky.
• Undying Body told Leo that Black Skull’s summoned companion belonged to another World Cluster, revealing that the conflict involved two vast civilizations.
• Yaoyao reported seeing a seven-story wizard tower absorb half the world and its inhabitants, while half of one shadow escaped.
• Leo wrote down what he had learned because information about Supreme Lords soon faded from memory.
• Ten days after the black curtain vanished, central command ordered the forces to return to the Wizard World and clear out the hundred million modified slaves left behind.

After recovering from his injuries, Leo returned to his wizard tower and began preparations to restore the Godslaying Staff by fusing it with the Tree of Life. He then set out to claim Earth, Purple Flame Academy, and the ice palace’s territory, with plans to expand his domain as a level-three wizard.

• Leo thanked the Indestructible Body Stigmata Great Wizard, who told him to advance quickly, then left after the seal on the partitioned space was lifted.
• Leo crossed the cleared partitioned world on an enslaved giant eagle and took a year to return to the Tower of Elements.
• Leo arrived at the wizard tower, where Yaoyao told the Gulu Beasts that Benji and Alice had died.
• Leo placed the damaged Godslaying Staff inside the Tree of Life, hoping the fusion would repair the staff and eventually let it control corpses.
• Leo left the tower with Yaoyao to claim Earth and Purple Flame Academy’s territory and add the ice palace’s territory to his domain.

Leo claimed ownership of his new territories, obtained a floating island, and preserved Alice’s ice palace before meeting with Charlotte. Charlotte arrived wary of Leo’s extraordinary status after learning that the Supreme Lord had personally awarded him a Special-Class Wizard Medal.

• Leo accepted legal ownership of the former Purple Flame Stigmata Wizard’s territory and the planet inhabited by Earth's humans, then requested a floating island and the merger of his beloved’s territory into his own.
• The Level Three giant rat arranged Leo’s largest free floating island, expanded his ground territory, and agreed to summon Charlotte.
• Leo inspected the island, activated its protective array, and tasked Yaoyao’s Gulu Beasts with guarding it.
• Leo asked the Ice Sprites to keep Alice’s ice palace just as it had been, then walked through the palace in grief.
• One month later, Charlotte reported to Leo, having learned that Leo’s Special-Class Wizard Medal came directly from the Supreme Lord and that he should not offend him.

Leo learned how humans from Earth had rebuilt civilization on New Earth after two centuries of chaos and discovered that wizards had secretly guided their development. He arranged a large purchase of supplies to support them and agreed to let Yaoyao oversee logistics in exchange for half his private stockpile.

• Charlotte told Leo that humans had named their new planet New Earth and endured two hundred years of turmoil after their memories were erased.
• Leo read that Charlotte’s group had supplied firearms and industrial equipment to a faction descended from Leo’s former country, enabling it to unify the planet and restore civilization.
• Leo learned that New Earth’s leaders knew about the wizards and that the humans had prioritized space exploration while the wizards monitored their progress.
• Leo gave Charlotte ten thousand energy crystals and four medals to buy low-grade supplies for the humans, and Charlotte hurried off to arrange the purchase.
• Yaoyao asked to become logistics minister, and Leo agreed after demanding half of Yaoyao’s private supplies.

The ten leaders of New Earth debated whether to keep funding space exploration to uncover the truth of their civilization’s past, but a new wizard’s arrival interrupted them. They learned that Leo, the wizard who had taken control of Earth, was their ancestor from the original Earth, and they submitted to him.

• The ten leaders argued over whether to continue spending resources on space projects or conceal the truth about the thousand-year-old break in civilization.
• A warning light signaled that a wizard had arrived, and the leaders traveled to the hidden portal site to meet him.
• The leaders saw Leo, whose gaze overwhelmed them until Charlotte used Tranquility Witchcraft to calm them.
• Charlotte introduced Leo as Earth’s new ruler, and the leaders bowed to him.
• After Leo asked about the college entrance examination, Charlotte revealed that Leo had come from the original Earth and was their ancestor.
• The leaders recalled how a past rebellion against the wizards had ended in the slaughter of their special forces and the demonstration of a power capable of destroying the planet.
