Inside a plane within the Void Insect Clan territory, which had been converted into a military camp.

"That's how it is, Your Majesty," Baguta said, kneeling on one knee with his head bowed, his attitude extremely respectful, a stark contrast to his demeanor when facing Malakai.

A melodious voice, reaching straight to the soul, emanated from the Zerg Queen on her throne. "What are your thoughts on this matter, Baguta? Do you also believe that the Floating Light Upper God named Daciu secretly stole the Divine Path Configuration and the relics of the Main God?"

"I don't know," Baguta shook his head and said honestly.

Oh? Tell me your thoughts.

"In my opinion, the truth of the matter is not important. The key is that the Floating Light Civilization needs the Holy Light Heart Core in our hands, and they are in a weaker position in their struggle against us. As long as we can prove that Daciu did participate in the hunt for the Thousand-Eyed Race, that's enough. Regardless of whether Daciu coveted those things, the Floating Light Civilization must return them. As for how they divide the responsibility internally, that's their own business. Perhaps we can even create conflict and kill two birds with one stone."

As he spoke, a sinister look simultaneously appeared in all three pairs of eyes of Baguta.

The Zerg Queen, who was lounging lazily above, chuckled upon hearing this. "As expected of my trusted strategist, your idea is excellent. Let's do it this way. I'll entrust you with full responsibility for the subsequent developments."

"Thank you for your trust, Your Majesty."

Floating Light Civilization.

Daciu's residence.

As a magical civilization, Floating Light's architectural style leans towards refinement and elegance, with an antique feel and rich charm.

At this moment, in a huge garden, all kinds of flowers rarely seen in the outside world were blown apart, withered and ruined by the sudden Berserk pressure.

Before long, the entire garden was reduced to ruins by the enraged Daciu.

"Damn it, these old fogies, do they really believe what outsiders say? They actually suspect me of embezzling the Divine Path Configuration, how utterly despicable!"

The recent questioning by the Council of Elders Daciu, who hadn't been humiliated in a long time, utterly disgraced. How could the proud Darsius possibly tolerate such treatment?

After venting for a while, Daciu gradually calmed down and began to think about the current situation.

"The Council of Elders only have suspicions right now, and can't produce any concrete evidence. But faced with the Zerg's pretext and overbearing pressure, they will most likely choose to swallow this loss in silence, as it represents a huge amount of resources."

"Given the way those old fogies operate, they'll definitely try to get revenge on me and use the opportunity to pressure my faction."

"To resolve this issue, I must prove my innocence."

"The key to the problem lies with that damned Thousand-Eyed Race True God. He clearly brought back the Divine Path Configuration and the resources of the ruins, yet he insists he didn't. The Zerg must be backing him up; otherwise, the Thousand-Eyed Race wouldn't have dared to be so bold. If we can capture him alive, extract his memories, and the truth will be revealed, and we might even be able to use it to turn the tide against the Zerg!"

After much thought, Daciu felt that his idea was sound. The next problem was how to capture Theseus, the Strange Light Bearer.

"He's just a Lower God, hiding in the Mother Plane. I really can't do anything to him, but once he leaves the Mother Plane, heh..."

After letting out two cold laughs, Daciu's consciousness was uploaded to a Virtual Universe.

Compared to the three strongest Virtual Universe — Northern Spirit Spacetime, Weave, and Mount Celestia— the Astral Realm has thousands of Virtual Universe of varying sizes. And this is only the number on the surface; there are likely many more hidden, with tens of thousands not being uncommon.

After all, once one reaches the level of an advanced Astral Realm or becomes Main God, one can build Virtual Universe covering at least one universe cluster based on the Fantasy Dimension. Those with outstanding technology can even cover an entire universe domain, or even a larger area.

The Virtual Universe that Daciu logged into, called "The Realm of Void," was built by the Onassis Family, one of the five great families of Pureblood Human Race. It shares the same bloodline name as the Onassis Family and is specifically used for selling intelligence.

As the uncrowned kings of the Astral Realm underworld, the Pureblood Human Race possesses an extremely advanced intelligence network that spans the entire Astral Realm. It is only slightly inferior to super-civilizations such as the Northern Spirit Empire, the Adrian Federation, and the World Alliance, but it is far ahead of other peak Astral Realm- level civilizations.

More importantly, the intelligence trade among Pureblood Human Race is simply a business transaction; they don't care about the identity of their clients, and even hostile forces can purchase intelligence from the five major families.

Daciu was a long-time customer of the Realm of Void and had high privileges. Shortly after logging in, he was invited to a VIP room and received by a Middle God from the Onassis Family.

"What intelligence does Lord Daciu wish to acquire this time?"

"I need you to send someone to keep a close watch on a Lower God of the Thousand-Eyed Race. His name is Theseus, nicknamed the Strange Light Bearer '."

"Okay, surveillance services are one of our signature services, and the corresponding costs will be deducted directly from your Star Sea Bank account."

"Yes, tell me immediately as soon as you receive news that Theseus has left the Thousand-Eyed Race Mother Plane."

"Yes, sir."

After the transaction was completed, Daciu left satisfied.

The Middle God who had just received him looked up at the suddenly appearing young man and asked curiously, "Villoni, why are you suddenly interested in Daciu of the Floating Light Civilization? What did he do to offend you?"

Void Realm Villoni, the older brother of Logo's close friend Audora, waved his hand and laughed, "It's some business trouble. Someone paid me to keep an eye on him."

"Is he an outsider? If so, you've violated family rules, and you'll be punished by the Council of Elders."

"Don't worry, they're on our side," Villoni reassured him.

Upon hearing this, the Middle God nodded thoughtfully. "In that case, it doesn't violate the rules. Given our friendship, I can certainly handle this for you."

"Thank you very much then. I'll treat you to drinks another day."

As soon as he finished speaking, Villoni's figure gradually disappeared.

Super Magic Planet, Campbell Star.

Since Logo ascended to the status of True God, this planet has been further transformed. Various advanced weapons have been placed throughout the planet, and an Elemental Pool has been implanted inside the star core to further increase the concentration and activity of elements and improve the environment, thus matching Logo's status.

Inside the courtyard, under the shade of the trees, sunlight, as always, filtered through the leaves, scattering across the body of the Logo Bloodline Avatar like petals ruffled by the wind.

A gentle breeze stirred, causing the long, silver-white hair, symbolizing the bloodline of the Space-Devouring Ring - Kalenos Family, to sway softly. Under the sunlight, her snow-white skin shone with a translucent, crystalline luster. Beneath her skin, within her veins, silver blood flowed slowly like lead and mercury, bringing an ethereal and dynamic quality characteristic of the spatial element.

Besides hair color and blood, another striking feature of the Bloodline Avatar is its kaleidoscopic eyes, which are colorful and vibrant, as if formed from the condensed River of Time, with a silent brilliance in their tranquility.

Besides the Bloodline Avatar, there was another person in the courtyard, the little girl Audora had successfully awakened the "Tower of Eternity" bloodline after absorbing the Heart of Eternity.

More accurately, it seems that she can no longer be called a little girl, because after awakening the bloodline of the Tower of Eternity Collins Family and becoming Emperor Blood, Audora's form has undergone considerable changes.

The five bloodlines of Pureblood Human Race, after their power is externalized, will each cause significant changes in their corresponding body tissues.

The Web of Time, corresponding to the dazzling array of colors in the eyes.

The Space-Devouring Ring corresponds to blood that is silvery-white like lead and mercury.

The Realm of Void corresponds to the amethystified brain.

The Furnace of Infinity corresponds to the crimson heart.

The Tower of Eternity corresponds to the Golden Bones.

Pureblood Human Race with the pure bloodline of the Tower of Eternity possess exceptionally strong bones, comparable to the divine bones of True God in the Matter System, and possess the quality of Eternity Immortal.

Therefore, after Audora purified the bloodline of the Tower of Eternity in her body, she grew from a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl into a twenty-four or twenty-five-year-old young lady. Her figure became tall and voluptuous, alluring and fiery, and her face became more dignified and graceful. She lost some of the delicacy of a young girl, but had more charm.

Of course, although her body is fully developed, Audora's eyes remain as clear as ever, carrying a pure and beautiful innocence, which is quite a contrast.

At this moment, Logo's Bloodline Avatar was leaning against a tree trunk, holding a stone slab and deducing the Rune Array. Audora was sleeping beside him, her cheek resting on his lap, with glistening drool at the corner of her mouth. Her stunningly beautiful face was adorned with a silly, innocent smile, a classic example of a beautiful but foolish girl.

Ripples spread outwards, like waves on the surface of water, spreading in all directions and bending large patches of grass under their weight.

Logo smiled helplessly, lightly tapped the Void with his finger, and erected a spatial barrier in front of him to block these waves, lest Audora be awakened.

Seeing that his little tricks had no effect, Villoni revealed himself, his face darkening as he looked at Logo, and said, "Let my sister get up."

"Okay." Logo nodded, then smiled faintly, "However, we'll have to wait until she wakes up."

"You bastard..."

Looking at the always smiling man in front of him, Villoni almost gritted his teeth. Ever since this guy appeared, he had been constantly clinging to his sister, and his presence had become increasingly distant. As a seasoned sister-complex man, it was hard for Villoni not to feel hostility towards Logo.

Although this hostility was not malicious in any way.

"Alright, let's get down to business. It seems like there's some progress on the matter I asked you to do?" Logo wisely changed the subject, not wanting to talk about his sister with someone who was obsessed with his sister.

"Hmm, the Realm of Void contacted me just now. Daciu has taken the bait, but I'm still very curious. You have no past or present enmity with the Floating Light Civilization, so why are you so interested in one of their Upper God?" Villoni asked, puzzled.

"There are some karmic consequences that need to be settled," Logo said, not completely hiding anything and revealing some details.

Upon hearing this, Villoni's expression hardened. "Cause and effect? Does it matter?"

"Don't worry, it won't affect my cultivation for a long time. This is my own business, and I'll handle it," Logo replied.

Hearing this, Villoni visibly relaxed and glanced sideways, saying, "That's good. But I don't know why, even though the Floating Light Civilization is very powerful, I always have a feeling that they'll suffer a great loss when facing a treacherous and cunning guy like you."

"Thank you for the compliment." Logo readily accepted Villoni's praise.

Villoni: "..."

The Golden Divine Kingdom.

Gustavo quietly returned here.

Shortly afterward, the entire crystal barrier of the Divine Kingdom suddenly closed, leaving some of the visitors who had been blocked outside looking at each other in bewilderment, wondering what had happened and speculating endlessly.

In the core space, after the Nirvana Tower was encased in hundreds of layers of Rune Array that isolated perception, Logo led the fully loaded Gustavo into it, while Lancelot oversaw the overall situation outside and was responsible for security.

Inside the top level of the Nirvana Tower, Logo and Gustavo stood facing each other.

Gustavo took out the components of the Illusory and Real Prism, Logo was immediately captivated. "Is this the Illusory and Real Prism? From the moment you entered the Golden Divine Kingdom, the Eye of Insight has been trembling violently. I can feel it; it's excited, and not just the Eye of Insight, but even my soul seems to be leaping for joy..."

"You feel the same way?" Gustavo's eyes narrowed. "It seems my previous feeling wasn't an illusion; the problem most likely lies in our past lives."

"Hmm." Logo nodded slightly, acknowledging the deduction. Then, a light emanated from between his brows, and his Eye of Insight slowly floated out.

Whoosh!!

The Illusory and Real Prism instantly transformed into a crystalline beam of light, disappearing into the Eye of Insight like a fish entering water.

The next moment, the pupil of the Eye of Insight expanded to its maximum, and the boundless starry river was stirred up and churned violently.

Gustavo looked out and saw that in the very center of the galactic vortex, a crystal cube formed by the Illusory and Real Prism was slowly rotating, like a supermassive Black Hole, attracting all the stars in the galaxy to revolve around it.

"It's becoming part of it."

Gustavo muttered to himself.

Logo was about to say something, suddenly everything went black, and a vast array of images appeared out of thin air in his mind.

Colossal cities floating in the void and chaos.

The corpses of gods and demons fell from the sky.

Strange humans dressed in wizard's attire.

And located at the center of a vast plane, there is a mysterious eye that illuminates countless Space-Time and seems to be able to see through all Truth.

"That is... the Eye of Truth!"

After a long while, the Eye of Insight returned to calm, and the starry sea inside completely changed, becoming a vortex-shaped celestial structure, with all the stars revolving around the Illusory and Real Prism.

Logo, too, awoke from his brief coma and slowly opened his eyes.

"What happened?" Gustavo asked hurriedly.

Logo gave him a complicated look, then lifted the restrictions on memory access, allowing Gustavo and Lancelot to see the images and the massive amount of memories that flooded their minds.

After absorbing these images and memories, Gustavo was clearly stunned, his face showing disbelief.

"Are all of these real? The Wizard Civilization, the Eye of Truth, the Fantasy Origin..."

"It's highly likely I'm right. Ha, the spiritual embodiment of the Eye of Truth... So the reason our three souls are so special isn't because we travel through Space-Time, but because we were born this way!"
