After being immersed in the hallucination for a long time, Wendak opened his eyes. His dilated pupils slowly converged and became bright. The tough Archon was back again.

He waved his hand first, and the wall in front of him faded away, and the scenery outside quickly came into view.

The boundless starry sky was filled with the huge Burning Sky Divine Weapon. The Divine Weapon was filled with a sense of oppression. Everything around him was embellished with it, even the stars in the distance.

After seeing this powerful Burning Heaven Divine Weapon, Wendak's heart finally calmed down completely.

"The final defense agreement has also gone crazy. We can only rely on ourselves for everything..." Wendak said silently. With another wave of his hand, the metal window turned into an ordinary wall again.

Purple Psionics floated out from Wendak's hands and eyes, making his figure look mysterious and powerful. He stretched out a finger and drew four engravings with Psionics on the metal wall nearby.

There are four engravings that only the successor to the Supreme Archon will know. The red engraving represents the evil spirit of the world. He represents strength and courage, but also battle, war and thirst for blood.

As the red mark lit up, inside the Burning Heaven Divine Soldier outside, deep inside the bizarre Shroud, a Shroud weapon located on the giant purple tree turned red like blood.

Next is the blue engraving, which represents the whisper of the void, which represents knowledge, wisdom, mystery, as well as development and change.

The second Shroud weapon changed. The black gradually faded and turned into one that was slightly emitting blue energy.

The third is that the engraving is green. Just by painting it, the pattern is lifelike and exudes the breath of life. This engraving represents reincarnation, circulation, life, and is a kind of existence and a rule. It is called the thread of life.

Another Shroud weapon turned green, it was full of life and ready to move.

When Wendak drew the fourth engraved mark, his spirit was under tremendous pressure, and something was tempting him to put his hand on this weird pink engraved mark.

This is an instrument of desire. It represents desire. All kinds of desires, from killing to seeking knowledge to reproduction, are all desires. The pink mark also corresponds to Shroud weapon inside the Burning Heaven Divine Weapon, and it exudes a seductive pink light.

It is not easy for a mortal to resist such desires. Fortunately, Wendak is a determined person and he was not tempted. The last mark is the most dangerous.

After drawing four engravings, Wendak still looked as if he was facing a formidable enemy. The sweat from his forehead wetted his clothes, and his back was soaked with sweat.

However, the four engravings are not the end, they are just the foreshadowing...

Reopening the delicate box, Wendak saw a box full of Shroud ashes. If he sucked them all in, his lifespan would be shortened a lot, but he had no other choice.

A box full of Shroud ashes was absorbed into his body by both sucking and eating. The ashes immediately took effect. The powerful Psionics filled Wendak's body, and his brain was at risk of being burned out.

Now that Psionics has enough strength, he can still maintain his sanity, and his fingers continue to carve on the wall. He combines red, blue, green, and pink lines together.

A new engraving was born. It is located between the four engravings. It is both connected to the other engravings and independent. No one knows what this engraving represents. They only know that his name is the end of reincarnation, the most taboo and the most powerful existence.

After drawing the engraving, Wendak didn't waste a second before pressing his palm on it.

At the same time, among the Burning Heaven Divine Soldiers, within Shroud, a seed was produced among the four Shroud weapon, a pure white seed. After the birth of this seed, the purple giant tree no longer looked looming, but slowly became tangible.

The Zeluo people are a lucky race, but also unfortunate. They are the first race to fly to the stars in this galactic reincarnation. They are the first race to awaken Psionics and get in touch with Shroud.

This gives them a huge advantage over other races. This advantage has allowed them to defeat countless enemies in the universe and maintain their transcendent status as a civilization until now.

This is the history that Wendak knows that the Zeluo people have been promoting, but he also knows that there must be truth and lies in it. Because the civilized Zeluo people who can contact Shroud are definitely not the first, they are just the first ones to survive.

The existences inside Shroud and Shroud are very dangerous. There are many powerful things like gods. The five gods represented by these five engravings are only the most powerful ones and the ones who can best sum up the authority.

To deal with any of them is to seek the skin of a tiger, fraught with the danger of civilization's demise.

The heroic ancestors of the Zeluo people did a great thing. They 'sealed' these five most powerful beings so that they could no longer affect the real universe excessively.

From this perspective, the Zero people are indeed using their own methods to try their best to protect the galaxy.

Of these five seals, four are Shroud weapon, and the fifth is the key to the Burning Sky Divine Soldier's ability to destroy stars and destroy galaxies with one blow.

Wendak's consciousness left his body and entered an unknown space. This place is not in the present, not in the future, not in the past, not in the micro and macro worlds, and not in Shroud.

"Sir of the Zeluo people, I am very happy that you are here. The contract is there and can be signed at any time. You can take some time to look at it again. After all, this contract is so important."

Words were being spoken throughout the space, and Wendak could not only understand them, but also felt the urge to sign the contract.

"It affects my consciousness and guides me to make judgments. This is not in compliance with the contract." Wendak stabilized his consciousness with a trace of clarity.

"Hahaha, I didn't violate the contract. With the gap between us, if I wanted to influence you, you wouldn't even be able to notice it. I'm just a friendly reminder. You are too weak as a mortal. A little bit of power that I accidentally overflow can annihilate you."

Without refuting, Wendak knew that the speaking being was telling the truth, because mortals are such weak beings. Without the contract, he would have died as soon as he entered here.

"Before signing the contract, I would like to ask a few questions. If you are not comfortable answering, that's okay."

"No problem, although I know what you want to ask, what your purpose is, and what you are facing. However, out of respect for the contract, I will wait until you finish asking before answering you." The strange voice did not care about Wendak's rudeness.

"You know, your ancestors deceived us, but we also fulfilled the contract."
