The battle behind the Bronze Gate continued for a very long time.
Saine did not linger for the fight, but he did not withdraw at once either.
Because for every additional stretch of time the entrance-zone battlefield held out, the Sky Net Central Hub could obtain more data.
The Crystal Tide Wrath Beast, the Black Flame Skeletonized Being, the Hundred-Eyed Chaos Beast, the Crystal Tide Snake King, and the Empty-Faced Burning Monarch—these five Level-12 destruction powerhouses nearly represented the highest level of Rule manifestation in the current entrance zone of this Destruction Time-Space.
Especially the Empty-Faced Burning Monarch.
The fragment of the Destruction Rule that Saine had stripped from it had already battered through seventeen isolation barriers in succession inside the God of Machines' deep-level Containment Chamber.
This sample was extremely active, and had even greater research value.

Apart from that, the fragmented text sent back from the direction of the Black Flame Spire Cluster was also continuing to increase.
"The throne... hangs vacant..."
"Destruction... wakes..."
Saine recorded these incomplete pieces of information one by one.

Of course, the current it had long since lost the lucid will of a guardian.
It was only an empty shell filled by the Origin of Destruction.
As the battle continued, the situation began to change.
The first to issue a warning was the Sky Net Central Hub.
"New Level-12 destruction fluctuations detected in the distance!"
"Number: three."
"No, number
