Ronan frowned, then relaxed. The current version of "Hundun" had been created jointly by him and Raven. Raven's contribution had mainly been that moment of "Awakening," while Hundun's current operating model and functions had all been arranged and adjusted by Ronan himself. No one knew its changes better than he did.
Very quickly, he traced the abnormal fluctuation back to its source.
Under Hundun's Great Flood mode, as energy continuously permeated and was transmitted to Outer Earth, the thick "soil" it had to penetrate remained the same. But judging by the feedback currently being received, there was a tiny "tributary" where the permeation efficiency was higher.
This did not mean he had found a specific route. Rather, it was feedback from the terminal—Tao Ju's unconscious response. It seemed that Tao Ju was more receptive to similar energy structures. Bit by bit, that had finally created a relatively distinct difference.
As for the source of that "tributary"...
Though it manifested through Hundun and was transmitted by it, strictly speaking, it did not belong to Hundun.
After all, Hundun was still connected to countless fragments accumulated by the Deformed Planet over many years. These fragments had been drawn in by the pure Great Monarch-level power radiated by Rotten Bone Star. In essence, they were the skeletal remnants of more than a hundred All Heavens Gods buried within the Tomb of Hundred Gods beneath the mist of the Mist Labyrinth, along with dust scattered from the ruins after the collapse of the ten Divine Kingdoms.
Using the historical knowledge he possessed and the information-analysis capabilities of Tracing Origin and Root, Ronan roughly sorted them out. Then, through a method similar to the Dream Entry Method, he mapped the Mental Layer image of the Mist Palace into reality, suppressing it here and gathering those
