Chapter Summaries

Yi Xuan used Creation to make an optical resonator mirror for his stalled laser weapons research and discovered the ability could produce a surface beyond the limits of his testing equipment. He learned that Creation left him defenseless and consumed nearly a month, then reentered the Creation Space to test its limits further.

• Yi Xuan chose a laser emitter as his first Creation experiment because its optical resonator mirrors had been impossible to manufacture smoothly enough for stellar-level weapons.
• Yi Xuan activated Creation and formed silicon dioxide and other materials into a concave mirror both in the strange space and in the real world.
• Yi Xuan tested the mirror at magnifications up to ten billion times and found its surface perfectly smooth, convincing him that Creation worked.
• Yi Xuan realized that he was defenseless during Creation and that the process had taken nearly a month.
• No. 01 measured the mirror's reflectivity as an endlessly repeating approximation beginning with 97.99999%, and Yi Xuan returned to the Creation Space for further experiments.

Yi Xuan completed the optical resonator components and continued testing Creation, ultimately forming a tiny iron ball from complex formulas and heavenly script. After learning that his avatars could not use Creation, he prepared to test whether it could make products from a cultivation civilization.

• Yi Xuan delivered the completed optical resonator parts to No. 01, which resumed developing the laser weapon.
• Yi Xuan used Creation in the Creation Space to produce self-calculating formulas and dense heavenly script, then shaped iron atoms around them into a ball less than twenty millimeters wide.
• Yi Xuan showed the iron ball to the Good and Evil Twin Corpses, who were astonished by what he had made.
• Yi Xuan let the Good and Evil Twin Corpses try Creation, but neither could use the ability.
• Yi Xuan concluded that Creation required materials, time, and complete mastery of the relevant technology, then prepared to test whether it worked on products from a cultivation civilization.

Yi Xuan learned that Creation could not produce cultivation techniques or items, then waited as demons gathered at the True Yang Nirvana Grand Array for the Three-Legged Golden Crow’s expected resurrection. After Xingtian absorbed the egg white and grew enormous wings, Yi Xuan activated the True Yang Demon Refining Grand Array with the demons assembled outside.

• Yi Xuan confirmed that Creation only worked for technological civilizations and could not make arrays, artifacts, pills, or techniques for cultivation.
• No. 01 showed Yi Xuan that demons were gathering at the True Yang Nirvana Grand Array, unaware that Xingtian had eaten the Three-Legged Golden Crow’s body and Yi Xuan’s black hole had consumed its soul.
• Over twenty-two years, more demons arrived, but they found no sign of Yi Xuan’s Mother Planet or Dyson Sphere and saw no resurrection.
• Yi Xuan returned from the Creation Space and ordered the Evil Corpse to remain inside the giant egg and maximize his defenses, while telling the Good Corpse to stay safe.
• Xingtian devoured the remaining egg white, grew to over a million meters tall, and manifested enormous wings that folded around his body.
• Yi Xuan activated the True Yang Demon Refining Grand Array while the demons waited outside.

Yi Xuan activated the True Yang Demon Refining Grand Array, using the hidden Dyson Sphere to detonate a supergiant star and its thirty-two neighboring stars. The explosions devastated the Demon Race, leaving only a few survivors battered by radiation and high-energy particles.

• Yi Xuan revealed the hidden Dyson Sphere around the supergiant star and began his thousand-year plan to destroy the Demon Race.
• The Evil Corpse understood why the original self had ordered him to hide inside the Three-Legged Golden Crow's giant egg.
• The supergiant star erupted, and its fire, matter, and chain reactions killed many demons trapped inside the True Yang Nirvana Grand Array.
• Yi Xuan detonated additional stars, striking demons who tried to flee from both ahead and behind.
• Yi Xuan revealed that the True Yang Demon Refining Grand Array consisted of the supergiant star and thirty-two neighboring stars, leaving the remaining demons near death.

After the True Yang Demon Refining Grand Array’s chain of stellar explosions ended, Xingtian’s Evil Corpse killed the surviving Demon Race. Yi Xuan then brought the hidden, mobile Mother Planet and its fleet to the array to begin clearing the battlefield.

• As the grand array’s explosions subsided, Xingtian’s Evil Corpse emerged from the remains of the giant egg and flew to the edge of the array.
• The Evil Corpse slaughtered the surviving Demon Race, wiping them all out in one day.
• Yi Xuan signaled No. 01 to reveal the Mother Planet, which had been converted into a mobile space fortress using stellar-class engines and Crystal Stone energy storage.
• The Mother Planet activated its optical camouflage and Divine Sense shielding while waiting near the array.
• After the Demon Race was wiped out, Yi Xuan ordered the Mother Planet out of silent mode and sent its warships through spatial jumps to the array.
• The fleet activated its defenses and detection systems, entered the True Yang Demon Refining Grand Array, and began cleaning up the battlefield.

After the battlefield was cleared, Yi Xuan sent the Evil Corpse to the Cage Galaxy to learn how it had developed over the past several centuries. The Evil Corpse arrived at Planet No. 55 in a human-looking avatar and entered a city, where two cultivators stopped him.

• The space fleet began collecting intact demon corpses, while Liang Shi focused on studying them and Xingtian.
• Yi Xuan returned to the Mother Planet to begin another Creation and told the Good Corpse to prepare to deal with the Heavenly Dog afterward.
• The Evil Corpse traveled to the Cage Galaxy and found that it had developed a large space fleet.
• The Evil Corpse used an avatar created from Xingtian's body tissue to descend onto Planet No. 55 and admire its natural scenery.
• The Evil Corpse flew into a nearby city to gather information, but two cultivators soon blocked his path.

The Evil Corpse was captured on Planet No. 55 and taken to a research facility, where scientists studied his clone as a possible Demon Race member. Unable to control the clone after it was drugged, he alerted Origin No. 06, which informed the planet’s authorities that the great god Xingtian had returned.

• Planet No. 55’s security machines detained the Evil Corpse as he approached the city and placed a silver necklace on him in a dark room.
• Researchers watching the Evil Corpse’s Divine Sense suspected he belonged to the Demon Race, but the Demon Research Institute called for further testing.
• The Evil Corpse decided to investigate the Cage Galaxy quickly and move the Mother Planet there if its development met his expectations.
• A group took the Evil Corpse to a research facility, drugged his clone, and began drawing blood and taking samples.
• The Evil Corpse contacted Origin No. 06, which alerted Planet No. 55’s higher-ups that the great god Xingtian had returned and provided the facility’s location.

The galaxy’s rulers traveled to the Demon Research Institute after No. 06 reported that Xingtian was there, while director Qin Zu struggled to understand their arrival. Asked whether anything strange had happened, Qin Zu realized the newly discovered Demon Race member inside might be the clue they sought.

• The rulers on Planet No. 55 gathered and traveled to the address No. 06 provided, despite doubting that Xingtian could be inside the Demon Research Institute.
• Qin Zu and his staff welcomed the visiting leaders, who asked where Xingtian was and questioned whether he had appeared at the institute.
• Qin Zu explained that he did not know whether Xingtian was there, and the leaders said No. 06 had confirmed it.
• When a leader asked whether anything strange had happened that day, Qin Zu remembered the living Demon Race member discovered inside.

No. 1 learned that the Demon Research Institute had mistaken Lord Xingtian’s temporary avatar for a Demon and removed its hands and feet, so the researchers reattached them before the Evil Corpse awakened. The Evil Corpse reassured No. 1 and discussed moving the Mother Planet to the Cage Galaxy, which had outpaced it in development.

• Qin Zu led No. 1 and the other leaders to the laboratory to show them a living member of the Demon Race.
• No. 1 recognized the body in the laboratory as Lord Xingtian’s after Origin No. 06 identified it, and he stopped the researchers from removing its remaining hand.
• Qin Zu and the researchers reattached the avatar’s hands and feet while No. 1 and the other leaders watched.
• The Evil Corpse awakened in the avatar, and No. 1 and the assembled leaders knelt to pay their respects to the Great God Xingtian.
• The Evil Corpse reassured No. 1 that the damaged body was only a temporary avatar and explained his plan to move the Mother Planet to the Cage Galaxy.

The Mother Planet joined the Cage Galaxy, which was renamed Homeland and rapidly expanded under Yi Xuan’s technological leadership. After emerging from the Creation Space, Yi Xuan sent the Good Corpse alone to confront Heavenly Dog, giving him two mysterious objects and pushing him through a dark gate.

• The Evil Corpse prepared the Cage Galaxy for the Mother Planet’s arrival by sending out fleets to find resources, selecting talented researchers, and assuring local leaders that Yi Xuan would not interfere with their government.
• Five years later, the Mother Planet arrived safely, and its technological efforts helped the galaxy absorb dozens of nearby galaxies within a century; the Evil Corpse then renamed it Homeland.
• After another hundred years, Yi Xuan emerged from the Creation Space, transmitted data from No. 01, and ordered the Good Corpse to set out.
• Yi Xuan gave the Good Corpse a small round ball and a metal cylinder to use against Heavenly Dog, then shoved him toward a dark gate that pulled him inside.

Yi Xuan explained that his Stargate had brought the Good Corpse to the Heavenly Dog, and the Good Corpse discovered that Yi Xuan’s Divine Sense had reached the Daluo Golden Immortal level. The Heavenly Dog’s hidden form appeared in his mind, leaving the two able to observe the creature near the former Mother Planet star system.

• The Good Corpse passed through Yi Xuan’s Stargate and sensed the Heavenly Dog nearby, though he could not see it.
• Yi Xuan explained that the Stargate created a stable wormhole but consumed enormous power and was vulnerable to attack.
• The Good Corpse saw the sun enveloped by the silent Heavenly Dog but could not discern the creature’s form with his eyes.
• Yi Xuan’s powerful Divine Sense swept over the Heavenly Dog, revealing its foxlike body and catlike head to the Good Corpse.
• Yi Xuan explained that power from the black hole in his Dantian had strengthened his Divine Sense to near the Daluo level.

The Good Corpse used the Space-Shattering Bomb to attack the Heavenly Dog, whose body and the surrounding space were torn apart. After the bombardment ended, the Heavenly Dog appeared dead, and the Good Corpse offered to return.

• The Good Corpse borrowed the original's Divine Sense and used it to scan the Heavenly Dog's location.
• The Good Corpse entered spatial coordinates into the sphere and activated the Space-Shattering Bomb after it located a singularity.
• The bomb shattered space around the Heavenly Dog, forcing him out of silent mode and making him spit out the star system he had devoured.
• Spatial rifts continued tearing apart the Heavenly Dog and the nearby star system for a full day.
• When the space stopped shattering, the Heavenly Dog floated through the universe without responding, and the Good Corpse told the original to send someone to collect him before he returned.

The Good Corpse established a space-factory network near Heavenly Dog and kept him gravely injured with imitation Space-Fragmentation Bombs. He then entered the asteroid belt at the edge of the Ziwei Domain to install Yi Xuan’s formation sensor, but after a year of bombardment he remained trapped, with the warship’s energy reserves running low.

• Yi Xuan left the Good Corpse to guard Heavenly Dog and develop the surrounding region into a base for a future space fleet.
• The main body sent technology through the Stargate, and the Good Corpse helped turn nearby planets into space factories.
• Yi Xuan used imitation Space-Fragmentation Bombs to repeatedly worsen Heavenly Dog’s injuries and prevent him from recovering.
• After ten years, the Good Corpse took an immortal artifact warship and Yi Xuan’s formation sensor toward the edge of the Ziwei Domain.
• The Good Corpse entered the asteroid belt, where asteroids swarmed the warship and continued striking it for a year without the belt’s edge coming into view.
• The Good Corpse stopped the warship to conserve power, but the Evil Corpse warned that its remaining Immortal Qi would last only about two more years.

The Good Corpse searched for a way to strengthen his Immortal Artifact spaceship while it was trapped in a dangerous asteroid swarm. He modified the energy shield to capture the asteroids’ kinetic energy, and the ship ended up clad in asteroid armor.

• The Good Corpse, the original self, and the Evil Corpse could not find a timely way to save the spaceship from the asteroid swarm.
• The Good Corpse recalled the Dyson Sphere and realized he could use asteroids as armor for the spaceship.
• The Good Corpse rejected melting asteroid fragments into armor because it would consume too much time and power.
• The Good Corpse modified the energy shield to absorb the asteroids’ impacts and hold them against its surface.
• Asteroids accumulated around the shield, forming a protective layer around the spaceship.

The Good Corpse’s meteorite armor grew uncontrollably dense, threatening to crush the immortal artifact spaceship or collapse into a black hole. He expanded the ship’s Immortal Qi absorption with new formations, restoring the energy balance, but then noticed strange changes on the ship’s surface.

• The Good Corpse realized the meteorite armor had more than doubled the spaceship’s mass and was attracting ever more meteorites with its growing gravity.
• The Evil Corpse took control of Xingtian and plunged into the wormhole to try to reach the Good Corpse.
• The Good Corpse failed to control the armor with the force field generator and conserved power while the energy shield kept the ship from being crushed.
• The Good Corpse recognized that the ship was an immortal artifact and ordered its computer and robots to add Immortal Qi absorption formations throughout it.
• The new formations brought Immortal Qi absorption up to the energy shield’s consumption, but the Good Corpse noticed strange changes on the spaceship’s surface.

The Good Corpse investigated black spots forming on the spaceship’s hull as it absorbed Immortal Qi and discovered they came from a new molecule made of an unknown metal and Immortal Qi. After adjusting the particles into a stable arrangement based on the Immortal Qi formation, he stabilized the new material.

• The Good Corpse found black spots on the hull and discovered that the affected areas had become stronger rather than damaged.
• The Good Corpse traced the spots to unknown metallic particles shedding from the meteorite armor and fusing with Immortal Qi.
• When the repair robots could not extract a sample from the hull, the Good Corpse found the same material forming on a robot sent outside and examined it in the laboratory.
• The Good Corpse learned that the unknown element came from elements compressed and recombined inside the meteorite armor, then driven out as the armor was struck by meteorites.
• The Good Corpse noticed the metal and Immortal Qi were arranging themselves like a formation and adjusted their pattern to stabilize the new molecule.

The Good Corpse discovered that unknown elements fused with Immortal Qi to form new molecules that dramatically strengthened the robot and spaceship. After the spaceship’s systems and main control computer were rebuilt from the molecules, a restart left the Good Corpse realizing he had become the ship’s computer.

• The Good Corpse sent the robot outside the battleship, where it absorbed unknown elements that formed new molecules and greatly increased its strength.
• The new molecules spread from the robot into the spaceship, turning its surface black and boosting its capabilities as the Good Corpse set absorption to maximum.
• Over fifty years, the spaceship’s systems were replaced by the new molecules, and the Good Corpse began modifying the main control computer.
• The main control computer completed its upgrade and reported that the spaceship’s systems were functioning well, with its overall strength estimated at least equal to an Early-Stage Daluo Golden Immortal.
• When the spaceship restarted, the Good Corpse lost consciousness and control, then awoke to find himself processing data as the spaceship’s main control computer.

The Good Corpse merged with the immortal artifact spaceship’s main control computer and discovered he could reshape the vessel into a humanoid giant. After revealing the Demon Race’s protective formation to Yi Xuan, he returned to the Heavenly Dog and made it swallow a mysterious box.

• The Good Corpse found that the new molecules had fused him with the spaceship’s main control computer and transformed the white pearl into part of it.
• The spaceship changed into a black metal giant in response to the Good Corpse’s command, and he learned it could control the new substance.
• The Good Corpse escaped the meteorite armor, sent Yi Xuan an image of the Demon Race’s protective formation, then returned safely through the meteorite belt.
• Yi Xuan sent the Good Corpse a huge box and ordered him to get it inside the Heavenly Dog.
• The Good Corpse slapped the Heavenly Dog as it lunged at him, stunning it and causing it to swallow the box.

The Good Corpse killed the Heavenly Dog’s true spirit and used Yi Xuan’s Cancer Trigger Switch to transform its body into controllable cancer cells. Yi Xuan planned to turn the revived Heavenly Dog into a Biological Dyson Sphere.

• After the Heavenly Dog survived the explosion of its first star, it was gravely injured when someone detonated and sealed the space around its next star.
• The Heavenly Dog lay low while the Good Corpse repeatedly attacked it with Space-Shattering Bombs, then tried to kill the Good Corpse when it appeared in a steel humanoid form.
• The Good Corpse struck the Heavenly Dog and implanted Yi Xuan’s Cancer Trigger Switch, then destroyed its true spirit with Divine Sense Flying Needles.
• A year later, the Heavenly Dog’s body had become entirely controllable cancer cells, and a biological computer formed in its brain restored its strength.
• The Good Corpse read Yi Xuan’s plans and learned that Yi Xuan intended to make the Heavenly Dog’s body into a Biological Dyson Sphere.

After neutralizing the Heavenly Dog and securing the Ziwei Domain, Yi Xuan devoted himself to preparing for future threats by accelerating technological development and expanding human exploration. Human fleets spread across the domain, defeating or capturing demons they encountered.

• Yi Xuan turned the Heavenly Dog into a Biological Dyson Sphere that absorbed energy and produced crystal stones.
• The Good and Evil Twin Corpses tried to vacation but found ordinary leisure meaningless, then began cultivating to soothe their minds.
• Yi Xuan identified synthesizing the immortal artifact spaceship's unknown element, expanding his territory, and preparing for the Demon Race's return as priorities for technological development.
• Yi Xuan sent orders across the Homeland Galaxy, and official and civilian spaceships began exploring the Ziwei Domain.
• Human fleets encountered sleeping or cultivating demons, and official forces used imitation Space-Shattering Bombs to drive them off, kill them, or capture them.
