Logo withdrew his gaze and looked back at the Astral Realm.
Under the dazzling light of the realm, countless runes and Daoist principles flowed slowly around the outer edge of the Astral Realm, like shimmering water reflecting a myriad of colors. These runes and Daoist principles were the natural manifestations of the Great Dao of the Astral Realm, each containing profound mysteries of the Astral Realm's origin. Even a single glance from an ordinary cultivator would cause their soul to collapse from the sheer volume of information contained within.
Logo closed his eyes and sensed for a moment.
His divine sense, like an invisible tentacle, pierced through the layer of runic Daoist rhyme and penetrated deep into the internal structure of the Astral Realm. Wherever his divine sense passed, countless pieces of information flooded into his mind like a tide—the plane distribution of the Astral Realm, the Space-Time structure, the flow of energy, the operation of the laws... everything became clear in his perception.
He quickly located a spot in the Astral Realm.
There, in an inconspicuous corner on the lower outer edge of the Astral Realm, extremely far from the Core Zone, it belonged to the "periphery" in the overall structure of the Astral Realm. It was once the location of his birthplace— the Elven Plane. It was an insignificant little plane, unremarkable among the countless sub-worlds of the vast Astral Realm. If Logo hadn't deliberately searched for it, he wouldn't have even noticed its existence.
That region is now known as the Golden Universe Cluster ".
Before Logo left the Astral Realm for the Spirit Saint Domain, the Elven Plane was just a barren and remote corner, rarely attracting the attention of even the Astral Realm's main will. But since Logo rose to power, left, and became the Heavenly Emperor of Spirit Saint, the status of that region has undergone a subtle change—because it is the place where the fluctuations of the Astral Realm and the distant Spirit Saint Domain intersect.
In terms of the overall layout of the Astral Realm, the importance of this confluence lies in the following: if the powerful beings of the Astral Realm successfully conquer the Spirit Saint Domain and prepare to pull this realm into the Astral Realm, merging the two, then this area will be the point of convergence for the realm fusion. Like the alluvial plain at the mouth of a great river, the convergence of two vast forces will give birth to a massive amount of incomparably precious resources—newly formed spiritual veins, fragments of primordial laws, condensed world origins... These resources are enough to nurture a huge number of powerful beings and geniuses, causing the entire Astral Realm's foundation to surge.
But now, the situation has completely reversed.
The Sun God, the God of Law, and other Eternal were defeated in their war against the Main God and Supreme God, and were suppressed by Logo in the depths of the Nether Realm Netherworld of the Spirit Saint Domain. The Spirit Saint Domain not only did not fall, but under Logo's control, it became even stronger and more complete. Now, Logo is turning the tables and launching a counterattack on the Astral Realm.
Of course, calling it a counterattack isn't quite right either.
Because he himself descended from the Astral Realm to the Spirit Saint Domain. In a sense, Logo can also be considered one of the attackers sent by the Astral Realm —when he left the Astral Realm for the depths of the Chaos Sea, he carried with him a certain expectation of the Astral Realm Will.
However, he has now become the ruler of the Spirit Saint Domain, and his foundation, his people, and his lineage have all taken root in the Spirit Saint Domain. His center of gravity has shifted to the side of the Spirit Saint Domain, so naturally he must speak and view issues from the perspective of the Spirit Saint Domain.
"It took a lot of effort to break through the isolation barrier set up by the Mother of the Stars in the Chaos Sea."
Logo pondered to himself, his gaze slowly sweeping over the layer of runic aura on the outer edge of the Astral Realm.
The isolation barrier erected by the Mother of the Stars was indeed extremely ingenious. It was not a simple defensive formation, but a conceptual "closure"—removing the entire Chaos Sea outside the Astral Realm from the overall information flow of the Chaos Sea, preventing any fluctuations from there from reaching the outside world. This method involved operations at the level of causality, which ordinary Eternal simply could not crack.
But Logo's Great Dao of Chaos happens to counteract this kind of conceptual closure.
Using the all-encompassing nature of chaotic power, he completely merged his aura with that of the Chaos Sea, silently passing through the barrier like a drop of water merging into the ocean. Then, inside the barrier, he used the same method to set up his own isolation barrier, tightly sealing the news of the defeat of the Sun God and others within the Chaos Sea surrounding the Spirit Saint Domain, making it completely impossible for the Astral Realm to sense any anomaly.
In this back and forth, Logo not only broke through the earth's blockade, but also used it to conceal his whereabouts.
All of this was effortless for Logo, who possessed the Eternity Chaos Saint Body and had comprehended the Eternity Law of Chaos. He was far more adept at manipulating and disguising the chaotic aura than the Mother of the Stars. After all, the Mother of the Stars' roots lay in the earth and stars; chaos was not her domain.
The external isolation barrier has been set up. Once inside the Astral Realm, the next step is to create an internal isolation barrier.
Logo raised his hand, and a crystal core appeared in his palm.
The crystal core was about the size of a fist, with a deep, dark blue color and countless fine light patterns flowing across its surface. Inside the crystal core, a miniature chaotic world could be faintly seen slowly rotating, like a primordial world sealed in amber.
Realm Beast Heart Core.
This is the precious treasure that Logo obtained from the Pureblood Human Race. Realm Beast are among the rarest chaotic creatures in the Chaos Sea. They feed on realms and are the natural enemies of realms, as well as the most ferocious hunters in the Chaos Sea. Each Realm Beast needs to devour the essence of countless realms to grow, and the Realm Beast Heart Core contains a vast amount of primordial energy sufficient to nurture a new realm.
This Realm Beast Heart Core came from a terrifying being equivalent to the Second-Step Eternity, but although the primordial power contained within it had diminished considerably over the long years, it was still sufficient for Logo's use.
"Using the Realm Beast Heart Core as a base, plus the Eye of Truth has already advanced to thirteen stars..."
Logo gently stroked the surface of the core with his fingertips, feeling the vast energy dormant within.
"Re-deploying the Heavenly Net and creating a new miniature realm would likely allow it to perfectly integrate into the Astral Realm ecosystem and conceal itself for a short period."
This is Logo's plan.
He doesn't just want to defeat the Mother of the Stars.
The more important goal was to seize control of the Astral Realm.
Of course, these two objectives became the same after the Mother of the Stars prepared to take control of the Astral Realm.
Once one is completed, the other will be completed automatically.
If Logo can successfully pull the Astral Realm Will back to his side—not even much, just half or a third—to support him, then Logo is confident he can suppress the Mother of the Stars Astral Realm Will.
