The Machine Race needed to acknowledge a master, and Intelligent Life needed to acknowledge a master. This was practically a consensus throughout the Primal Universe.
But after studying True Shadow Venerable, Dongguan discovered something unusual, and only then did he uncover this enormous lie.
In fact, this lie had a flaw at its very foundation. It was merely a case of failing to see the forest for the trees.
After analyzing True Shadow Venerable's condition to a certain extent, Dongguan began consulting the records again.
He went back through the inheritance of the Lord of Star Refinement.
The most fundamental research materials on Artificial Intelligence from various civilizations.
Even subsequent records on Intelligent Life fell within the scope of his research.
Only because he was a Universe Master, with an incomparably fast processing speed, could he do this. Otherwise, with such a vast ocean of information, there was no telling how long it would take even to consult a portion of it and verify a few conjectures.
"So it really is like this." Dongguan found it increasingly difficult to suppress the excitement on his face.
In studying Life Genes, he naturally focused primarily on humans themselves.
But beyond flesh-and-blood life, Metal Lifeforms, Rock Lifeforms, Energy Lifeforms, and others were all within the scope of his research.
Although these lifeforms differed greatly in form from flesh-and-blood life, there was no denying that they were all alive. It was just that, in terms of souls and comprehension, they were generally inferior to flesh-and-blood life.
Whether in the Primal Universe or the Universe Ocean, more than half of all powerhouses were flesh-and-blood lifeforms.
Among non-flesh-and-blood lifeforms, the largest group was the Skeleton Race.
As for flesh-and-blood life, both the Purple Moon Universe and the East Emperor Universe were primarily populated by flesh-and-blood lifeforms.
