With the capture plan finalized, Edward no longer has any reservations. The situation in the all-out war outside Void is changing rapidly, and every minute of delay may trigger a chain disaster like Domino dominoes.
In order to complete the complete harvest of Ninth-Tier Plane in the shortest time, he directly passed all the testing stages and prepared to end this game with overwhelming momentum.
Edward took a deep breath, and his consciousness instantly resonated deeply with Aether Core, the master of Floating City. In an instant, a wave of terrifying energy comparable to the peak powerhouse Tenth Tier swept across the entire city.
Under the precise control of Edward, seven huge magic arrays emitting dazzling arcane golden light appeared out of thin air over the seven strategic core points of this plane.
The moment these seven formations arrived, seven violent and majestic auras rose into the sky and pierced the sky. Those were the pinnacle of force in this world - seven Ninth Tier level "Beast-Taming Emperor".
According to the data previously collected by Morgana, these seven people are Patronus of the Cortes Empire and Naru Empire, each of whom represents the highest achievement of Beast Tamer civilization.
Edward calmly stared at the holographic screen in the control room, watching the seven strong men perform "Beast Soul Fusion" one after another, transforming into a ferocious half-human, half-animal form.
From these auras, he identified the bloodline characteristics of ancient monsters such as Titan Ape, Azure Dragon and Feathered Serpent God. The others had never appeared in the Empire's illustrations, and were obviously mutants unique to the world once ruled by Wizard Plane.
These Beast-Taming Emperors roared Wrath, trying to release their strongest bloodline forbidden spell to shatter the magic circle in the sky, but in Edward's view, this struggle was meaningless.
While observing the battle of these seven strong men, Edward keenly discovered an extremely interesting phenomenon.
As theoretically powerful Ninth Tiers, when these Beast-Taming Emperors explode at full power, their destructive power should be enough to easily shatter star systems and even affect galaxy clusters.
However, in this land, their magical power was forcibly compressed within an extremely narrow range.
"The spatial intensity of the entire plane was forcibly increased by Cosmic Will," Edward quickly deduced in Sea of Consciousness, "The actual span of this continent is equivalent to the hometown Fifteen times that of Milky Way Galaxy. If Cosmic Will does not carry out this kind of 'dimensional reduction strike' style suppression on the strong men under his command, just the melee of these seven people can break the entire plane to pieces in an instant.."
This gave Edward a deeper understanding of the survival instinct of "Cosmic Will". For Planar Will, survival is above all else. In order not to be destroyed by the strong men born in the country, some extreme Cosmic Will will even artificially set an "advance ceiling". For example, a plane with an original upper limit of Eighth Tier will always only allow Seventh Tier to exist, thereby eliminating any risk that may lead to annihilation..
Sighing, sighing, Edward's men never stopped moving. He mobilized Floating City's crushing energy, and before Beast-Taming Emperor could react, he completely sealed and captured them at an unprecedented speed.
Then, as the second order was issued, hundreds of small magic arrays overwhelmingly covered the sky of the entire world.
"Master, our load warehouse may not be enough to accommodate all the materials in the entire plane," Morgana promptly reminded.
Edward frowned slightly when he heard this, and then added the parameters of space reduction to the spell model. He decided to take the first step - seal Cosmic Will.
Based on his previous research on four different Cosmic Wills, he has already mastered the underlying structure of this void consciousness and even defined it as a special energy field with soul characteristics.
Due to the huge gap in rank between the two sides, the sealing process was perfect. At that moment, all the creatures in this plane seemed to hear a sad and unwilling cry deep in their souls.
With the fall of Cosmic Will, a kind of primitive hostility and hatred originating from the depth of blood awakened in the hearts of every aboriginal people, and they instinctively sensed the arrival of the invaders.
"This level of racial hatred will be a problem when incorporating Empire," Morgana expressed concern about this.
"We will solve this problem through large-scale memory modification and reconstruction," Edward said in a cold tone without any waves. "If necessary, we can make them think that they are Empire citizens from the beginning to the end." Tsunade on the side heard this almost god-like arrogance and could only remain silent. She knew very well that in this level of the game, the weak have no right to talk about freedom.
Immediately afterwards, the magic circle that enveloped the whole world was fully activated. The trillions of people in the entire plane fell into a deep sleep in an instant and were forcibly compressed into a miniature form the size of a tennis ball.
These doll-like civilians were uniformly transported to the Subspace warehouse of Floating City and entered a long-term cryo-sleep mode.
After processing the population, Edward began the most important experiment of the trip - the collection of "Tree of Knowledge". The results of his painstaking research at Naruto World finally came in handy at this moment.
Following the guidance of the spell, a giant tree that reaches the sky and exudes a faint ancient meaning rises from the ground in the center of the plane. This illusory ancient tree composed of pure legal principles and Law of Causality is frantically extracting memory fragments of the entire civilization.
Just an hour later, the entire tree gradually withered, and only a strange fruit with a dark blue light condensed on the branch.
This fruit contains all the knowledge and wisdom of this civilization for nearly a million years. Edward carefully picked it off. Although he could eat and absorb it himself, it would require him to fall into deep meditation for three months. Under the current war situation, this is obviously not allowed.
"Here you go, Morgana," Edward casually threw the fruit to the purple House-elf, "With your computing power, it only takes a few minutes to digest it."
Morgana did not show excitement, but was a little serious. After absorbing all the information, she frowned slightly and said, "Master, this Tree of Knowledge still has flaws. It can only go back to a history of one million years ago at most."
"That's enough," Edward responded calmly, "At least we already know the origin of Beast Tamer civilization."
Through this fruit, Edward learned that one million years ago, when the Wizard Plane colonists evacuated, the world experienced an extremely long "Age of Magical Beasts" and mankind was once on the verge of extinction.
It wasn't until the first Beast Tamer found the original formula of the bloodline Fusion in the ruins of the laboratory left by the wizard that the human counterattack began.
But the irony is that due to the crazy plundering of the Beast Tamers, the Ninth Tier monsters in this world have almost become extinct. Their civilization has come to an end due to the depletion of resources before it can truly touch the stars.
However, what makes Edward most uneasy is Morgana's next report.
"The strange thing is that all the data about Wizard Plane's core power system were forcibly erased by an extremely domineering 'Causal Spell'." There was a rare sense of frustration in Morgana's tone.
"Causal Lock?" Edward's eyes instantly became sharp, "In order to prevent their technology from being leaked, those wizards actually buried this kind of causal curse for specific groups of people in the underlying logic of the entire plane?"
"Yes, this curse seems to have extremely accurate identification capabilities," Edward analyzed. "Because the genome of humans on Earth contains trace amounts of the residual bloodline of 'Magekind', this curse will spontaneously self-destruct data when it detects that we are trying to peek into core secrets."
This malice, like a tarsal maggot, made Edward smell danger. He originally planned to stay in this plane longer to repair Floating City, but now he changed his mind.
If Causal Spell here is activated, the power of Wizard Plane far away in the depths of Void is likely to lock his coordinates along the line of cause and effect.
"Change of plans, evacuate!"
Edward no longer hesitated. Under Tsunade's shocked eyes, he used Tenth Tier Floating City's rules Authority to forcibly compress and absorb the entire huge Ninth-Tier Plane into the core cabin of the city like folding paper.
As the space ripples dissipated, only the dead Void was left at the coordinates of the original plane. Edward erased all arcane residues, and then controlled the fully loaded war fortress, turned into a silver lightning, and disappeared into the Void torrent leading to home.
