"Show your true power, Illusory and Real Prism!"

As the words faded, a crescent-shaped Black Hole slowly rose, its edges adorned with colorful threads representing different Divine Law, intertwined and woven together in a breathtakingly beautiful display.

At the center of the Black Hole, after a brief period of gathering power, an extremely powerful energy flow suddenly surged out, and the vast and mighty Devouring Divine Power fell like a celestial river, continuously pouring into the Illusory and Real Prism.

A few seconds later, the prism assembly began to react, emitting a dark golden light, and its shape began to change.

At the same time, Gustavo also muttered to himself, "As expected of a ten-star super high-ranking being, the Divine Power I desperately unleashed was nothing more than a drizzle to it!"

Fortunately, it wasn't a fierce battle taking place, so Gustavo was able to handle it calmly. Among the tens of thousands of resource stars stored within his body, several hundred were energy planets with a plentiful supply of high-purity energy. Gustavo only needed to throw them into Black Hole, refine them, and they would replenish his divine Divine Power, so he wasn't worried about running out of energy.

If the output per unit time is insufficient, then just extend the time; there's no rush anyway.

At the same time, the clear aura released by the activated Illusory and Real Prism made Gustavo feel secretly fortunate.

Fortunately, I didn't use this treasure in the Destruction Realm Abyss. Otherwise, with such a conspicuous aura that is so penetrating, it would be hard to say that it wouldn't be sensed by those big shots, especially the Ancestral Tree of Destruction, whose roots are spread throughout the entire Abyss. The Destruction Realm Abyss is almost equivalent to half of its Inner Universe, so it would be normal for it to be sensed.

The situation is different in the dark Void. Here, no one will casually extend their sensory field, otherwise they will easily attract unnecessary trouble and almost inevitably expose their presence.

Even so, Gustavo set up numerous curtains to conceal his presence. He had no choice; he had been a little too overconfident earlier and almost got killed by Daciu. Being cautious was essential. It was better to put in some effort than to be in danger. Sweat it out, after all.

As time went on, more and more Devouring Divine Power was injected into the Illusory and Real Prism, which expanded to the size of a basketball. Its shape became three-dimensional, like a multifaceted Rubik's Cube, with sharp edges and lines that shone with a clear luster, just like the veins of the human body.

As the light emanating from the energy veins grew stronger, the prism assembly began to tremble violently, and finally, it exploded, breaking into 112 prism-shaped fragments.

These prismatic fragments arranged and combined in mid-air, quickly reconstructing into a cold and majestic crystalline eye.

Gazing at the transformed Illusory and Real Prism before him, Gustavo paused slightly, muttering in disbelief, "The shape of this pupil... it looks so much like the Eye of Insight!"

No wonder Gustavo reacted this way. It's because, compared to the Eye of Insight, this eye called the "Eye of Imaginary Numbers" is almost identical in structure, except that it doesn't have the shining starlight inside the pupil. Instead, it has spiral Fibonacci numbers.

Suppressing his doubts, Gustavo tentatively manipulated the "Eye of Imaginary Numbers" and found it not difficult at all; on the contrary, he felt an ease as if he were controlling his own body.

It's worth noting that Gustavo never experienced this feeling when using the "Scale of Exchange".

Other artifacts, such as the "Eye of the Void," "Starfall Arrow," and "Sun-Breaking Bow," do not offer a similar sense of intuitive control.

With increasing doubts, Gustavo shook his head, focusing intently on controlling the Eye of Imaginary Numbers, and shot out a pale white Pupil Light that landed in the eye at the center of the head of Theseus, the Strange Light Bearer lying on the ground.

Gustavo's task was simple: he wanted to alter Strange Light Bearer 'Theseus memories and related concepts of existence, thereby concealing his control over Theseus.

Although there aren't many powerful individuals in the Astral Realm who cultivate the path of cause and effect Fate, this is only in terms of proportion. If we look at the absolute number, it's actually quite significant.

No matter what, Gustavo is only Middle God. The causal lines he created are easily discovered once they encounter True God of the same level who is a causal or Fate- based True God.

In this way, the Thousand-Eyed Civilization would naturally associate it with another force secretly plotting against them, thus becoming wary and hindering Gustavo's plans.

Originally, before obtaining the Illusory and Real Prism, Gustavo had already planned to eliminate Theseus, the Strange Light Bearer, along with the other man. What he is doing now is actually an impromptu act and was not part of his initial plan.

Unfortunately, plans can't keep up with changes. The emergence of the Prism of Illusory and Real Prism has given Gustavo the resources to continue causing trouble.

Concealed by this Miracle Creation, not only Middle God, but even Upper God causal powerhouses would be unable to detect the anomaly of Strange Light Bearer Theseus.

The power of the Miracle Creation was immense, even less than the time it took to charge. Soon, the Eye of Imaginary Numbers completed its transformation of Theseus, the Strange Light Bearer.

After being decomposed and reconstructed, the Eye of Imaginary Numbers returned to its original prism form, its aura completely concealed. Along with the elemental worlds and Rune Array that Concealment their auras, Gustavo absorbed them into his body, and with a flick of his body, he disappeared.

About half a minute after Gustavo disappeared, Strange Light Bearer, the Theseus One, who had been lying in the Void, slowly woke up. He covered his head, cautiously looked around at his surroundings, and then breathed a sigh of relief.

"Looks like I was lucky; that spatial teleportation scroll helped me escape successfully. It's just a pity that Octavian and the others were all killed by that Upper God of the Floating Light Civilization!"

Thinking of this, Strange Light Bearer Theseus with hatred in his eyes. He then unleashed his Divine Power and, through the communication network built by the Thousand-Eyed Civilization, contacted the strongest member of his race, Silver Moon Calamity Malakai.

The projection appeared, Malakai's figure materialized before the Strange Light Bearer. Seeing the grief and indignation on Malakai's face, the strongest member of the Thousand-Eyed Race's expression darkened. He said, "It seems you have failed!"

The Strange Light Bearer bowed hastily and explained, "Your Excellency, we had successfully passed the test of the ruins and obtained the complete Divine Path Configuration, but at that moment, the Upper God of the Floating Light Civilization somehow located our coordinates and teleported directly here. After a fierce battle, I escaped using the ruins and a spatial scroll, but Octavian and the others..."

"You're the only one who survived?" Malakai narrowed his eyes, scrutinizing the Strange Light Bearer with obvious suspicion in his gaze.

"In that case, let's come back first. I'll coordinate with the Floating Light Civilization and the Water Mirror Civilization regarding the specifics."

After saying this, Malakai hung up the communication. The Strange Light Bearer was stunned for a moment, then left the spot dejectedly and headed towards the direction of the Thousand-Eyed Race's mother universe.

After he left, Gustavo's figure appeared quietly, chuckled twice, and then slowly disappeared.

The plan had been set up, and the seeds of suspicion were temporarily sown. Gustavo returned to the Golden Divine Kingdom with a huge harvest.

The prism of Illusory and Real Prism is named "reality," which is somewhat of a waste for Gustavo. Of the three, only Logo, who wields the Eye of Insight, can fully unleash its power.

In addition, Gustavo himself has many questions that need to be answered.

What exactly is the relationship between the Eye of Insight and the Illusory and Real Prism?
