Initial Display of the "Herrscher of Reason Divine Core" Authority

After sternly rebuking the new apprentice, the old craftsman gazed at the blazing furnace fire. His eyes seemed to see through the rot within the imperial court. "Do you really think the imperial family can cover the sky with one hand?"

"The current Heaven Dou Imperial Family is already strong on the outside but weak within, swaying in the wind and rain."

"Xue Ye had long been bedridden with illness and no longer had the strength to personally govern. Back then, the second prince, who had possessed the greatest talent, mysteriously died overnight."

"Not long after, the third prince, then at the height of his prominence, also died under bizarre circumstances. The two cases involving princes that shook the empire were both hastily closed in the end and left unresolved."

At this point, the old craftsman could not help but sigh softly.

"In times like these, the imperial family is already trapped in its own internal strife. How could they spare the attention for a mine in some remote barren mountain? Only by working for the great clans can we survive peacefully in this chaotic age."

"When all is said and done, no matter how glorious the Heaven Dou Imperial Family's imperial authority looks, it still relies on the great clans to uphold its power. Dynasties come and go, but the great clans endure!"

Every word was a whispered truth exchanged in private among lowly craftsmen.

This was a piece of history with no written records, no witness testimony, and no electronic devices to preserve it.

Yet this conversation, which should have faded away with time, was now forcibly dragged out of "time" by Qin Moyu!

Before the Myriad Heavens Diary, the girls watching held their breath, all of them stunned speechless.

Soul Land II Xiao Xiao: "...What kind of ability is this? It can completely recreate the entire process of a Gold Soul Coin's creation?"

Soul Land II Ice Empress: "It is only an ordinary Gold Soul Coin, yet it can trace back through the timeline and even display this conversation among common folk, one that no one knew about, without the slightest discrepancy... Is this the Martial Soul ability of human Soul Masters?"

Soul Land II Snow Empress: "It is a Martial Soul, yet it is not a Martial Soul. This is a unique authority belonging to that young man, part of an ability called 'omniscience and omnipotence.'"

Soul Land II Snow Empress: "If ordinary Martial Souls could accomplish this, then there would already be no secrets left in the world, and all soul beasts would have long since lost their habitats..."

Soul Land II Ju Zi: "...There are no absolute secrets in this world. As long as something happened, it cannot escape his eyes?"

Soul Land IV Lan Mengqin: "Is this scientific? Things from the past have long vanished with time. Without any Soul Tool serving as a recording medium, how could he restore it so clearly?!"

No one had expected that an inconspicuous Gold Soul Coin could trace back to a historical scene that no one knew about...

Heaven Dou Empire.

"So this is his Martial Soul, the Herrscher of Reason Divine Core, capable of analyzing all things?"

The brush in Qian Renxue's hand, which had been reviewing memorials, slowly lowered. Her beautiful eyes stared blankly at the magnificent spherical technological creation within the diary's image.

"Divine Core."

It was a power that did not belong to the Martial Soul system of Douluo Continent, yet it eerily aligned with the essence of Martial Souls. It was as though some existence had forcibly inserted it into Douluo Continent's Martial Soul system...

"This is a true God King-level Martial Soul..."

Qian Renxue murmured softly, her tone carrying a trace of reverence that even she had failed to notice.

With only a distant glance, she could truly sense the terrifying majesty dormant within that "Divine Core." Even the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul could not glimpse its full form.

Ordinary Soul Masters could only see the Divine Core's magnificent phenomenon and assume it was some rare special Martial Soul.

Only Soul Masters like Qian Renxue, who possessed powerful Martial Souls, could clearly sense the terror buried deep within the Divine Core.

It was the absolute overlooking of an inferior Martial Soul by a superior one, an oppressive force born from the difference in their levels of life!

Soul Land II, Sun Moon Empire.

Meng Hongchen lounged lazily on a soft bed. Her sweet white dress made her skin appear as flawless as snow, while her jade feet wrapped in shimmering white stockings dangled gently in the air.

The diary rested in the girl's arms. Her long eyelashes trembled lightly, and her beautiful eyes gleamed with sharp light.

"Seemingly ordinary objects are all records of time in his eyes..."

"If this ability were applied to Soul Tools..." Meng Hongchen pressed a small hand against her rosy lips, her thoughts instantly racing.

As the top Soul Tool prodigy of the Sun Moon Empire and the granddaughter of Jing Hongchen, master of the Hall of Virtue, she saw the essence of the Divine Core's authority at a glance—scientific dimensional suppression!

This was not a combat Martial Soul at all. It was a research cheat powerful enough to crush an entire Soul Tool technological civilization.

Technical barriers that countless Soul Engineers had repeatedly worked through blueprints to overcome, that generations had tested through trial and error without success, and even lost manufacturing techniques that had vanished from history could all be perfectly recreated by Qin Moyu with a single glance into their origins.

As long as the object remained, history would never disappear!

And this was only the tip of the iceberg of the technology known as the Divine Core!

The underlying logic of the Herrscher of Reason Divine Core was this: to understand was to control, and to analyze was to replicate.

As long as one thoroughly understood the principles behind Soul Tool technology and possessed sufficient raw materials, one could ignore the production process, create objects from nothing, and replicate every Soul Tool weapon!

The Herrscher of Reason's terrifying power of construction was enough to make one person into an army. A single body could become a war machine!

More than that, an independent individual could become an entire mobile technological civilization. One person was a civilization!

Such an unsolvable authority truly deserved the title of the most unsolvable judge of technological civilization!

"No wonder he is so confident. This is still a Martial Soul that has not obtained a soul ring..." Meng Hongchen's eyes trembled as she could not help sighing.

The Soul Tool technology of Douluo Continent ten thousand years ago had been impoverished and backward, completely burying such an authority.

Only the Sun Moon Empire, where Soul Tool technology flourished and the atmosphere for research was rich, could truly bring out the Divine Core's abilities.

Meng Hongchen lay at the edge of her bed, lightly pursing her red lips. A trace of anticipation quietly surfaced in her eyes as she began making small plans in her heart.

This was a top-tier prospect seen only once in ten thousand years!

If she could bring Qin Moyu into the Hall of Virtue, Sun Moon Continent would surely produce an unprecedented top Soul Engineer!

The current Sun Moon Empire truly needed a powerful Soul Engineer too badly.

The entire empire appeared prosperous and flourishing, but dark undercurrents surged beneath the surface. No one knew when it had begun, but members of the Holy Spirit Cult had started appearing frequently in the cities, leaving the people unsettled...

Meanwhile, Qin Moyu's Soul Power was running low, and he withdrew from his Martial Soul Possession state.

The "memories" being replayed before him instantly dissipated like smoke. He returned to the Rose Hotel, though only a few seconds had passed during the entire experience.

"Can Herrscher-level power only accomplish this much?"

Qin Moyu gently shook his head, gaining a clearer understanding of the boundaries of his own combat power and authority.

With a thought, he summoned the diary interface and wrote down the insights in his heart...

[What a pity. The Herrscher of Reason Divine Core from the Dark Plane Herrscher system is ultimately not the Herrscher of Reason from the Honkai system.]

[The Dark Plane Divine Core originates from dimensional technology created by the Star Kingdom Civilization. It possesses authority over time, but it is only dimensional technology corresponding to four-dimensional time.]

[The Herrscher of Reason from the Honkai system has the Herrscher of Truth as its ultimate evolved form. It has long surpassed the limitation of "replicating existing objects" and possesses the supreme authority to create things that do not exist out of thin air.]

[For example, could God create a stone that even He could not move? Yet God should be omnipotent, so how could He fail to move it?]

[The physical laws of the mere fourth dimension—the time dimension—cannot contain authority of such a level.]

[The Herrscher of Truth has clearly touched upon authority from a higher dimension, which is why it can "create things that do not exist"!]

[According to the dimensional hierarchy of the Star Kingdom Civilization's technological Herrscher system, the "Herrscher of Truth Divine Core" is at least above the tenth dimension—the parallel universe dimension—at an even deeper level of dimensional technology...]
