However, only those viewing it through human eyes could see such a beautiful scene. Others who had undergone specialized genetic modifications to their eyes could not.

For example, people aboard several warships who had received Cat Eye modifications saw no Seven-Colored Light. Instead, they saw light in other wavelength bands, such as violet, blue, green, yellow, and the mixed colors formed from them.

Of course, the colors of light one saw were merely superficial appearances, the result of a sentient life's photosensory system and the brain's perception. In fact, "light" represented electromagnetic waves across the entire spectrum; biological perspectives merely prevented one from glimpsing nature in its entirety.

The Seven-Colored Light humanity saw here was no different.

With their strong scientific literacy, they all knew that the light crisscrossing this Small Universe was not limited to red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet. It encompassed light across every band; human eyes could only perceive certain wavelength ranges.

As the saying went, what the eyes saw was not necessarily real. The eyes did not see the essence of the world, but only truth—the essence lay in the exposed half of its abundance.

In other words, the light within this Small Universe had actually been divided into smaller wavelength bands, namely the light outside the 380mm–780mm wavelength range.

Yet at present, apart from the Seven-Colored Light against the dark backdrop, humanity had discovered nothing else. The interior of this Small Universe seemed filled with nothing but that light, which was clearly impossible.

To see beyond appearances and discern the essence—humanity naturally understood this principle.

Humanity had to pierce through the mist and see its essence.
