When the Spirit-Seizing Ancient Emperor was brought into the mechanical laboratory, a faint tremor ran through the entire frontline position.
This was certainly not because the Mechanical Civilization could not accommodate a level-12 lifeform.
Rather, even after Vegeta had gravely wounded him and several Level-12 Strong Practitioners had joined forces to seal him, the Source-Devouring Crystal Core inside the Spirit-Seizing Ancient Emperor had still not fallen completely dormant.
Under the control of mechanical arms, hundreds of thousands of Alchemy Needles slowly pierced every part of the Spirit-Seizing Ancient Emperor's rule true body.
These Alchemy Needles were not intended to inflict further harm on him.
Some were responsible for suppressing the Spirit-Seizing Rule, while others recorded every minute energy fluctuation inside the Spirit-Seizing Ancient Emperor.

This Ancient Emperor was still trying to contact Source-Devouring Time-Space!
