After returning to Gear Time-Space, Saine remained immersed in the many gains from this venture and the corresponding Truth Experiments.
Three thousand years passed before he knew it.
Deep within the central experimental complex of Gear Time-Space, the enormous mechanical containment laboratory had scarcely stopped operating during those three thousand years.
Source-Devouring Beast Cores of varying sizes were separately sealed within transparent Rule Containers.
These Source-Devouring Beast Cores belonged to different Life Levels, and the rule structures within them differed enormously as well.
The cores inside low-level Source-Devouring Beasts had relatively simple structures.
However, the cores of Source-Devouring Time-Space lifeforms that had reached the Dominator Realm, or even the Transcendence Realm and beyond, were filled with countless intricate layers of rules.
They were not merely the power cores of these Source-Devouring Beasts, but also special mediums through which Source-Devouring Time-Space acted upon their true bodies.
Before Saine, the Level-11 Source-Devouring living specimen continued to struggle.
This Source-Devouring Time-Space lifeform, whose Life Level had reached the Level-11 Late-Stage, had already had its Rule True Body pierced by hundreds of alchemical chains.
The Final Silence Gray Seals and Destruction Noise Cancellers inside and outside the laboratory were also continuously weakening its origin activity.
Even so, the core within this Source-Devouring lifeform continued to rotate slowly.
The free energy within the laboratory was continuously drawn into it along faint yellow veins that were nearly impossible to detect with the naked eye.
Even some of the alchemical chains used to seal it gradually showed signs of energy depletion across their surfaces.
"Three hundred and seventy-sixth energy environment test, begin."
Saine's voice echoed through the laboratory.
As Skynet responded, the metal and Ashes Rule that had filled the laboratory rapidly receded.
In their place came dozens of rule energies with different attributes, including water, fire,
