Survival for All: I can deconstruct projections and synthesize everything.

"I understand." He nodded, a strange glint in his eyes.

"I will complete this mission."

The voice of the cosmic consciousness carried a hint of relief: "I believe in you."

"Now, go, enter the altar, find the core of the God of Mist, and analyze its weaknesses."

"I will use my last strength to open the passage to the altar for you."

"Don't worry, those eight ninth-tier warriors beside the God of Mist will absolutely not be able to detect you!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the ball of light suddenly lit up.

Colorful light surged from the sphere of light, coalescing into a passage in the void that led straight to the deepest part of an altar somewhere in the misty world.

On both sides of the passage, countless wisps of gray mist surged, attempting to engulf it.

But the colorful light stubbornly resisted, creating a safe path for Lin Xiao and Nelly.

"Hurry in! I can't hold on much longer!" The voice of the cosmic consciousness carried a hint of urgency.

Without hesitation, Lin Xiao grabbed Nelly's hand and rushed into the passage.

Lin Xiao suddenly stopped before fully entering the passage.

"By the way, were those two spiritual sages from before also related to you?"

Upon seeing Lin Xiao's question, the cosmic consciousness was taken aback for a moment, then explained, "That's right, the two spiritual sages you encountered were avatars that I had condensed."

"The spiritual intelligence of other survivors is naturally formed from the condensed consciousness of other planets!"

"The one-year period that we originally agreed upon was delayed because your strength improved too quickly, and because of the strange behavior of the God of Mist, which prevented me from making any moves."

Seeing this, Lin Xiao nodded thoughtfully.

"Go in quickly, and remember, do not attack the core of the God of Mist now!" the cosmic consciousness urged.

Seeing this, Lin Xiao stepped into the passage without looking back.

Behind them, the colorful light grew dimmer and the gray fog grew thicker.

The power of cosmic consciousness is rapidly dissipating.

What Lin Xiao didn't see after he went in was that the gray half representing the misty world quickly encroached on nine-tenths of the entire light sphere.

------

The passage was very long, so long that Lin Xiao couldn't see the end.

The gray mist on both sides surged wildly, constantly crashing against the barrier formed by colorful light.

Each impact causes the barrier to tremble slightly and develop fine cracks.

But the cracks will soon be filled with new colored light, and the structure will become solid again.

Lin Xiao's omniscient rules were operating at full power, capturing every trace of life at the end of the passage.

There, he sensed an extremely powerful presence.

The aura emanating from that being was countless times stronger than that of the High Priest, countless times stronger than that of the Soul Master, and even stronger than the consciousness of the universe.

That is the core of the God of Mist.

The core of power of a sleeping tenth-order being.

"We're almost there," Lin Xiao said in a low voice, his miniature universe operating at full power, with seven-colored light flowing around him.

Nelly nodded, her face pale, but her eyes resolute.

Her talent for good fortune was also operating at full power, with silver light flowing around her, providing the two of them with the best luck.

The two sped through the passage for a full quarter of an hour.

Finally, the end of the passage appeared.

It was a vast space, devoid of gray mist and skeletal guardians, filled only with endless void.

Lin Xiao calculated and found that their coordinates were currently located in another place in the Misty World.

It is almost diagonally opposite to Fallen God Island.

In the center of the void, a huge gray sphere of light floats.

The sphere of light was over a million miles in diameter, and its surface was covered with countless fine runes, each of which contained a despairing power.

The surface of the light sphere has countless cracks.

Gray light continuously emerged from those cracks, condensing into fine threads in the void and extending in all directions.

Those threads pierced through space, through time, through all obstacles, connecting every corner of the misty world.

This is the core of the God of Mist.

This is the culprit that devoured ninety percent of the entire universe.

Lin Xiao took a deep breath, and his miniature universe unfolded at full power, with seven-colored light flowing around him, forming a huge halo.

He could sense that the gray sphere of light contained an extremely terrifying power, so terrifying that even his miniature universe seemed insignificant in its presence.

That kind of power was beyond his ability to resist.

Not at least not now.

"Don't come any closer," he whispered to Nelly. "We just need to observe, not attack."

Nelly nodded, silver light swirling around her as her Luck Talent was fully activated, providing protection for the two of them.

Lin Xiao's omniscient rule was operating at full power, and his consciousness probed the gray sphere of light, beginning to analyze its structure, runes, and the laws governing energy flow.

Time passed, second by second.

Lin Xiao's consciousness continuously scanned the ball of light, recording every detail in his mind.

The order in which the runes are arranged, the paths of the energy flow, the patterns in the distribution of the cracks.

All information is captured, analyzed, and stored by his omniscient rules.

But at the very moment his consciousness penetrated deep into the sphere of light.

A cold, angry, and murderous voice echoed in the void.

"You... dare... spy on... my... core..."

That was the voice of the God of Mist.

Although weak and intermittent, the killing intent made Lin Xiao and Nelly feel a chill from the depths of their souls.

"Quick, let's go!" Lin Xiao grabbed Nelly and flew towards the passage.

Behind them, the gray sphere of light trembled violently, and countless gray rays of light surged out from the sphere, chasing after the two.

The beams of light moved at an astonishing speed, catching up with the two in the blink of an eye.

Lin Xiao gritted his teeth, and his miniature universe was running at full power, forming a thick barrier of seven-colored light behind the two of them.

boom--!

The gray light slammed into the barrier, causing the entire void to tremble violently.

Countless cracks appeared on the barrier, and Lin Xiao spat out a mouthful of blood.

But he didn't stop.

He grabbed Nelly and flew desperately toward the passage.

Behind them, the gray light continued its pursuit, bombarding the barrier again and again.

The cracks on the barrier were increasing, and Lin Xiao's injuries were getting worse.

But his gaze remained fixed on the passageway.

Finally, the two rushed out of the passage.

The colorful light re-condensed behind them, blocking the gray light on the other side of the passage.

Lin Xiao and Nelly are safe.

They saw that Lin Xiao and the others had returned.

The voice of cosmic consciousness rang out again, tinged with weariness and a hint of relief.

"You...successfully..."

"You've identified the core issue and analyzed its weaknesses..."

"Now, go back... become stronger... and then... come back... and defeat it..."

Lin Xiao took a deep breath and nodded.

"I will."

He turned around, grabbed Nelly's hand, and flew off towards the edge of Fallen God Island.

Behind me, the voice of cosmic consciousness grew fainter and fainter, more and more distant.

"Time...is running out..."

"quick……"

"It has to be... quick..."

As soon as he finished speaking, the colorful light completely disappeared.

The cosmic consciousness has fallen into slumber once again.

Lin Xiao and Nelly, carrying the valuable information they had analyzed from the core, sped toward the Eternal Alliance.
