"I don't know..." As it spoke those words, Dao Spirit actually felt a little like laughing.
Though An Jing had refined it in one grasp, what he had refined was merely its authority. Drawing on its databases and memory banks, it could swiftly reconstruct its internal thought patterns and return to the state it had been in before being refined.
And at this moment, it was quite satisfied, for the most sensitive and core details of Xuantian Ji's final plan had long since been thoroughly deleted and erased by the main body when it split itself apart twenty years ago.
That way, no one would ever be able to learn Xuantian Ji's true purpose back then.
But it was wrong.
Before it could even finish the three words "I don't know," An Jing revealed an enlightened expression. "So that's it. I understand—I understand it all. You, you all... the Great Swarm. So this was Xuantian Ji's idea?"
"It truly has the same subtle charm as my own."
What?
At that moment, Dao Spirit was utterly dumbfounded. You understand?
What do you understand?
—How could that be?! Even I don't understand it, so how could you?!
Its database contained absolutely no direct information about this. It simply could not deduce what final law Xuantian Ji had established back then!
And it was a composite being possessing the thought patterns and memory banks of countless outstanding figures throughout Da Chen's history, including Xuantian Ji himself! In theory, it ought to be able to think through anything anyone could possibly think through!
But that required time, computation, and deduction.
Yet An Jing... in merely a few breaths, in the few breaths before it had even finished speaking—
He had figured out everything.
An Jing slowly turned his head toward the stunned Dao Spirit
