The members of the Astral Express Crew looked at Emperor III, who seemed ready to elbow-strike the entire universe, carrying an air of being the sole sovereign between heaven and earth.
They then looked at the excited Stephen Lloyd, and then at the geniuses whose eyes were shining as they busily collected data, falling into a silence.
Is now the time to research this?
If a fight really breaks out and the entire Great Universe collapses, what then?
Why aren't you big shots hurrying to save the poor little Galaxy-chan?!
"As expected of big shots."
On Stelle's face, a look of deep envy appeared. "To be able to talk and laugh so freely in the face of a crisis for the entire Great Universe, they are truly role models for our generation..."
"A-Xing! Wake up!"
March 7th's cheek twitched. Facing such a super boss, she felt like she could be punched into March-sauce by this Great Tomb at any moment. No matter how thick your nerves are, you can't be this abstract at a time like this!
"Is now the time to talk about this? This is a major crisis for the entire The Universe!"
Feeling extremely insecure, March 7th looked at her unreliable friend, then at the indifferent geniuses, and finally couldn't hold it in anymore, turning her expectant gaze toward her invincible older sister:
"older sister, come out and save us!!"
"Sorry, Little March, I don't think I'm a match for Emperor III."
Changyeyue's voice echoed in March 7th's mind, expressing her view helplessly: "If things really get out of hand, I can only take your companions and run away..."
The massive disturbance caused by the birth of the Great Tomb naturally couldn't go unnoticed by those factions spanning the sea of stars.
"Omen! A great ill omen! General, something big has happened!"
It must be said that Fu Xuan, the Grand Diviner of the Xianzhou Luofu's Divination Commission, was indeed quite capable. Or rather, the Third Eye on her forehead, bestowed by Nous, still had some connection with Nous. She quickly deduced the events occurring in a corner of the star sea.
"Minister Fu, calm down."
General Diheng, Qingque, looked out at the star sea, her expression unchanged. The moment Fu Xuan issued the warning, she had almost deduced the sequence of events.
A dual Envoy of Erudition and Destruction, a Lord Ravager specifically designed to counter Nous?
General Diheng murmured in her heart, falling into deep thought.
Although the appearance of the Great Tomb was a major crisis, Qingque seemed to have caught a flash of brilliant inspiration.
Ascending to the position of Luofu General was like a carp leaping over the Dragon Gate for Qingque.
During this time, she had not only fully mastered the power of the Emanator of the Hunt but also leveled the obstacles on her Path of Erudition through concepts such as [Pursuit], [Lock-on], and [Penetration].
Without anyone noticing, no one knew that the dignified Luofu General, General Diheng, had already reached the point of near self-coronation on the Path of Erudition.
But reaching this step was already near the limit.
The Path of self-coronation is not easy to walk. Even the geniuses of the Genius Society would need a long time to achieve this, let alone Qingque.
If Qingque followed the standard procedure for her Path of self-coronation, without a massive stroke of luck, it would truly be impossible to realize.
The foundation brought by being an Emanator of the Hunt was not infinite either.
However.
Now, the appearance of the Great Tomb was like a bright light, illuminating the confusion in Qingque's heart.
Perhaps she could too... Although the birth of the Great Tomb alarmed various interstellar civilizations, before these forces could react, the fusion and transformation of the Great Tomb finally reached its end.
"Nous, your birth was the greatest mistake of my life!"
"Knowledge must never have so-called boundaries, and wisdom cannot be locked in a cage!"
Emperor III, the Great Tomb, spoke indifferently: "This time, let me personally correct this mistake!"
As soon as Emperor III was born, he aimed his spearhead at the Aeon of Erudition, Nous. Even Cyrene, who had nearly performed a memory deletion strike earlier, failed to draw his hatred.
Xandar's countless years of plotting and planning finally erupted completely at this moment.
Under the speechless gazes of Herta and the other onlookers, Nous actually had no reaction to this, but instead continued the internal struggle between its left and right brains?
While this could be a hidden trump card left by Xandar, the creator of the Aeon of Erudition, for you, a dignified Aeon, to be calculated to this extent—you're the first, aren't you?
How embarrassing!
"Something's not right!"
Herta and the others furrowed their brows, not being misled by the unfolding plot, and continued to observe and research.
As members of the Genius Society, they knew all too well how terrifying Nous was.
Xandar's plan was indeed brilliant, but Nous was no pushover; it shouldn't be unable to even mount a decent counterattack.
Unless there was something inherently wrong with this matter.
On the other side, taking advantage of the hidden trump card taking effect, Emperor III, the Great Tomb, immediately seized this incredibly precious time, and the pre-set program took effect instantly.
The giant in the star sea immediately linked with Nous.
Destruction's Nanook was also completely alarmed at this moment. That aesthetics of Destruction aimed at Erudition's Nous thoroughly pleased this Aeon with flowing golden blood.
The Path of Destruction's support for Emperor III, the Great Tomb, grew even stronger.
Even the Path of Remembrance was skillfully intertwined with the other two Paths. The layout of thirty million cycles of reincarnation completely bloomed into the most brilliant flower of Destruction.
In this instant, Erudition's Nous was firmly bound together with Emperor III, the Great Tomb, by the meticulously woven triple Paths, forcing It into the most dangerous corner!
"As expected, it's all interlinked, leading Nous into a checkmate end-game step by step..."
By now, Herta finally understood Xandar's calculations completely and couldn't help but clap and sigh: "First, by using the deathmatch of the triple Paths to lock down the possibility of Nous suppressing others with raw power, and then by using the [Inverse Function of Erudition] specifically designed to counter Nous to directly invade Nous's system."
"This guy actually even considered an Aeon's immortality?"
Normally, Aeons are nearly immortal. Even with another Aeon as an opponent, it's very difficult to completely nail down the coffin lid of a defeated Aeon.
What's more, even if an Aeon in the current spacetime dies, they can just change the timeline and directly defy heaven to change their fate!
Although Xandar didn't know the inside story, he had clearly considered all possibilities.
He had completely locked down all possible ways for Nous to turn the tables.
Herta saw it very clearly; everything was proceeding incredibly smoothly according to Xandar's plan.
Similarly.
It was also playing out perfectly according to Nous's script!
