Gao Gong was taken aback.
"The universe surface" had its own consciousness?
This was the first time he had heard such an unbelievable rumor.
It wasn't that he didn't believe it.
After all, the technology trees and advanced knowledge theories of high-level civilizations were often "knowledge essences."
So, saying that this kind of "top-level universal technology" possessed self-awareness wasn't entirely unreasonable.
However, for this foundation of a level-nine civilization and symbol of an immortal, indestructible civilization system to possess self-awareness was indeed quite astounding.
"Do the level-nine civilizations know?"
Gao Gong blurted out.
But he soon realized that it was a stupid question.
In the Sixth Universe, no civilization had "merged with the Dao."
Asking him would be pointless too.
Sure enough, the "Old World Lord" silently shook his head.
Gao Gong quickly fell into deep thought.
According to the information on the evolution of the universe he had obtained from the "Abyss Library,"
if the Sixth Universe had no civilization that had "merged with the Dao,"
then the Seventh Universe was a planned universe. Four level-nine civilizations had been born there, and according to the records, they were one of the few civilization alliances capable of joining forces against the Three Calamities. In particular, after those stowaways signed the "Universal Noninterference Agreement," they had barely interfered with the operation of civilization in that universe.
Many organizations in the Ninth Universe, such as the "Civilization Council" and the "Universal Neutral Organization," had been nurtured and born in that universe.
Therefore, all four of those level-nine civilizations should have "merged with the Dao."
The Eighth Universe went without saying. It was a universe ruled by bizarre entities. Even if it had a level-nine civilization, perhaps it was a civilization-level bizarre entity.
The Ninth Universe—the current universe—had six level-nine civilizations in total:
