"Everyone, prepare in advance. Be ready to sever your connection to the puppets at any moment."
"If you placed any of your will in them, destroy it immediately."
"Absolutely no substantial consciousness can remain inside the puppets."
"In a place like the True Realm, once the Sourceflows discover you, even death won't be possible."
"Reversing time isn't a method exclusive to us."
The many experts grew solemn. One by one, they erased every trace of will or consciousness hidden in the hundred-odd puppets.
They left only the control measures designed to monitor and influence the puppets.
Meanwhile, in the Sea of Void beneath the True Realm, a number of vessels built by the experts of the Destiny Universe had appeared.
These vessels would be the basis for remotely controlling their puppets to gather and relay information in the True Realm.
Within the Destiny Universe, apart from the five hundred experts of the positive and negative mechanisms under Li Qing's command, every other expert had already moved their true body out.
The mechanism experts had used Void Beast flesh to build not one vessel, but several.
One vessel deployed puppets in the Sea of Void and served as an information relay station.
Another remained at the boundary of the True Realm's sphere of influence, becoming a second relay station.
A third remained at the outer limit of the relay zone, orbiting the Destiny Universe while maintaining a connection to the puppets in the True Realm. Their true bodies were aboard it.
Only their avatars remained in the Destiny Universe. The avatars' power was limited; they could fight only by relying on the Heavenly Dao Reincarnation Authority.
During this period, the Destiny Universe had kept its movements within a fixed area where it could maintain an information link with their last vessel.
