Chapter Summaries

Su Wen questioned whether Sycee or Luobao was connected to the River of Space-Time or the River of Fate, but Sycee denied being the River’s true spirit. Su Wen then considered whether the Eighth Epoch God of Wealth had hidden resources in the Training Arrow Realm and decided to investigate it.

• Sycee said the Wealth Source had awakened him and let him communicate with the River of Space-Time, while he knew little about Luobao.
• Su Wen asked whether Luobao might be the River of Fate’s true spirit and whether Sycee might be the River of Space-Time’s, but Sycee denied it.

After Su Wen revealed that Qi Ke had witnessed everything, the Monkey King summoned his leaders to cooperate, and Su Wen called for the Leopard King.

Su Wen set a goal for the Divine Mandate Bearers to ascend to True God within the year, and the Theater God, Star God, Wind God, and Shadow God quickly achieved it. The Remnant Clan ordered its hidden traitors to investigate Su Wen and gain his trust, while the Star God urged Su Wen to ascend as well.

• Su Wen told the Battle God that everyone would strive to become True Gods that year, prompting the Battle God to leave and train.

The Battle God revealed that the Remnant Clan had already inferred Su Wen’s space-time abilities, while the Star God warned that the clan might be hiding greater forces and could ally with aging universes against them. Su Wen and his allies accepted the danger as an opportunity, ending with the Wind God likening their struggle to a young fighter taking on a universe nursing home.

• The River of Fate concealed heavenly secrets about Su Wen's relatives and promised to turn plots against them back on their perpetrators.
• The River of Fate urged Su Wen to return home and said it could help his comrades remove forced disguises and stand openly with their own families.

After advancing to True God, Su Wen learned that the River of Fate could protect his family and let Divine Mandate Bearers return home safely. He and the Battle God chose to postpone visiting their families until they had won or gained the upper hand.

• Su Wen thanked the River of Fate and gave it five hundred million in Wealth Source after it gifted him several benefits for becoming a True God.

Su Wen and Theater God considered using the Remnant Clan’s hostility to lure them into a trap, with the River of Fate’s protection keeping Theater God’s resurrected family safe.

Su Wen and the Star God prepared to handle seven True Gods sent to the Frontier Battlefield, knowing six were Remnant Clan traitors. They also planned further tests of the Second God of Fate within Li Wenze and of the First Epoch veterans before revealing their plans.

• The Star God showed Su Wen a list of seven True Gods being sent to the Main Realm’s cosmic barrier, and Su Wen recognized six as traitors.
• Su Wen and the Star God agreed to protect the one loyal True God and use their intelligence advantage to carry out a plan against the others.

• Su Wen insisted they test the veterans several more times before revealing their plans in the Main Space-Time, since they were still True Gods and weaker than the veterans.

Su Wen prepared to open another Sub-Space-Time, planning to investigate the Mad Heart Clan and the incoming traitors while the Star God handled the strategy. Sycee found that Su Wen was still alive a thousand years into the future, leaving him surprised by how long he might live.

• The Star God advised Su Wen to probe the Mad Heart Clan, draw out the force behind them, and seek cooperation with the Remnant Clan.
• Su Wen said he would enter a future Sub-Space-Time before the six-man traitor team arrived and check whether the Battle God caused trouble.
• The Star God told the Theater God about the incoming team, and the Theater God put Huaxia's interests first while declining to help plan the response.
• The next day, Su Wen arranged his affairs, summoned Sycee and Luobao, and prepared to open a Sub-Space-Time alongside the River of Fate.
• Sycee checked the future and told Su Wen that he survived beyond five hundred years and was still alive after a thousand.

Su Wen traveled 2,000 years into the future and found the Main Realm under attack by Descender souls after the Star Grand Array stopped working. After learning how the invasion began, he connected directly to the array’s central core to investigate.

• Su Wen traveled with Sycee and Luobao to a Sub-Space-Time 2,000 years in the future, where he sensed a distant battle.
• Su Wen appeared on a battlefield and suppressed four Demigod cultivators, then captured the three Descenders who had been attacking a Martial Dao Demigod.
• The Martial Dao Demigod left an incarnation of his divine sense to explain the crisis while he rushed to deal with the invading Descender souls.
• The incarnation told Su Wen that the Star Grand Array had stopped working two days earlier and that a breach had opened in the eastern defensive line.
• Su Wen connected his consciousness to the Star Grand Array’s central core and suspected that the Descender Universe was behind the Mad Heart Clan.

Su Wen entered the Star Grand Array and rescued Star Spirit from an attempted possession by the Descender Universe. Star Spirit told him that the Wind God had been killed by the Remnant Clan’s grand elder three hundred years earlier.

• Su Wen found Star Spirit asleep while Main Realm experts outside struggled to understand why the Star Grand Array had gone silent.
• Su Wen reached the array’s central core and detected an invisible force trying to possess Star Spirit.
• Su Wen blessed Star Spirit, strengthening her enough to suppress the intruder and wake up.
• Star Spirit recognized Su Wen as the God of Wealth from the past Main Space-Time and greeted him.
• Su Wen asked whether anyone else had died, and Star Spirit revealed that the Wind God had fallen three hundred years earlier.
• Star Spirit explained that the Remnant Clan’s grand elder had killed the Wind God despite the alliance agreement.

Su Wen learned that the Star God’s alliance with the Remnant Clan continued despite the Remnant Clan Grand Elder’s attack on Wind God and Battle God’s retaliation. As the Star Grand Array resumed working and trapped Descenders, Star Spirit falsely announced Star God’s decree to calm the Main Realm while Su Wen stayed to observe its Martial Dao.

• Star Spirit explained that the Remnant Clan blamed its Grand Elder’s attack on Wind God on qi deviation, and Battle God retaliated by killing at least ten True Kings from the Grand Elder’s faction.
• Su Wen learned the alliance with the Remnant Clan continued to help the Sub-Space-Time explore the Descender Universe for the Main Space-Time, despite Star God’s anger.
• Star Spirit awakened the Star Grand Array, which locked onto Descender souls and launched star strikes; infiltrating Descenders realized their plans had failed.
• People in the Main Realm wondered why the Star Grand Array had stopped and restarted, but Star Spirit announced that Star God had ordered them to return to their duties.
• Star Spirit privately admitted to Su Wen that she had falsely conveyed Star God’s decree because she could not contact him, and Su Wen decided to stay in the Main Realm and asked her to tell Star God alone that he had returned.

The Star God endured the Descender Universe’s traps while preparing to share plans and resources with the God of Wealth. Meanwhile, Su Wen secretly explored the Martial Dao research center, learned of Bai Zijun’s achievements, and began collecting its records before Star Spirit confirmed his return to the Star God.

• The Star God inferred that the Descenders were trying to delay him while targeting the Main Realm and trusted his safeguards for the Star Grand Array.
• The Star God planned to give the God of Wealth information about the Descender Universe, a simulated origin, and Martial Dao techniques and research.
• With Star Spirit’s help, Su Wen entered the Martial Dao research center unseen and found that Bai Zijun had become a Martial Dao True God and a renowned pioneer.
• Su Wen reviewed Bai Zijun’s advances in the Basic Body Tempering Method and learned that she and Zhao Tianhan had helped the Organ Martial Dao break through the Martial Dao True God barrier.
• Su Wen had Star Spirit export the research center’s useful records, and Star Spirit told the Star God that the God of Wealth had returned.

Su Wen and the Star God discussed the Descender Universe, the Remnant Clan, and the Will of the Universe’s plans across the epochs. Su Wen recalled Jiu Ying’s claim that nine universes had surrounded their newborn universe, prompting the Star God to realize the threat might exceed his expectations.

• The Star God arrived at the Martial Dao Research Institute and discussed its Martial Dao research with Su Wen.
• The Star God explained the Descenders’ body-taking, the Remnant Clan’s role in the Wind God’s fall, and the Heavenly Net System.
• Su Wen reasoned that the Will of the Universe may have empowered each epoch’s Incumbent True God to confront aging universes.
• Su Wen recalled Jiu Ying saying that nine universes had surrounded their newborn universe during the final decisive battle.
• The Star God questioned how a ninth universe could exist if Baili Chaoge had destroyed one in the fifth epoch, then suddenly realized something was wrong.

Su Wen and the Star God feared that multiple aging universes might attack the Divine Fate Universe during its final epoch. Su Wen learned that enough Wealth Source could let him revive the other eight Incumbent True Gods, but the Rivers of Space-Time and Fate had not revealed the full price.

• Su Wen and the Star God considered whether Jiu Ying's nine enemy universes included their own and worried that aging universes might unite against the Divine Fate Universe.
• The Star God warned that the Remnant Clan Universe could be holding them in place while other universes tested them before attacking together.
• Su Wen asked the River of Space-Time whether the nine Incumbent True Gods could gather, and it said Wealth Source could make that possible.
• Su Wen consulted the River of Fate, which offered to revive the other eight Incumbent True Gods for one hundred trillion Wealth Source less than the River of Space-Time's price.
• Su Wen realized the revival cost was likely enormous and sighed over how much money his plans would require.
