The overlord of the gods is interrogating the alien female spy.

　"Kal'tsit, I hope you don't mind, but I'm very curious to know. Who is the prophet?"

　Prophet...

　“Theresia, how would she know about her? Did Ah Xu tell her? But how could she…”

　If the prophet Theresa already knew, then what about the other person?

　Does Theresa already know about her existence?

　"We need to leave immediately! M3, we're about to leave Gaul."

　We need to go back to Kazdel now, or things might change.

　"The wailing cry"

　"how?"

　Kal'tsit looked at the letter that the little monster had mentioned, then remembered that she hadn't finished reading it yet, so she picked it up again and continued reading.

　"..."

　It’s over.

　If Theresa was merely asking if the prophet was still within her reach, now that she's seen that the prophet has taken Ananna away, Kal'tsit is already considering restarting the game.

　"Ah Xu... Damn it. What on earth happened?"

　Based on what was written in the letter, Qilin's personality changed, and it revealed information about the prophet. It also took the original source stone with a clear purpose and went to Yan Kingdom.

　What does the Yan Kingdom have?

　Jingyu Main Mineral Vein.

　What's in the main vein?

　One of the original Originium.

　Why would Qilin go looking for Originium if he had nothing better to do? Unless he has some unspeakable reason.

　And who is related to Originium?

　Kal'tsit couldn't bear to think about what had happened during the time Kirin had disappeared!

　"Let's go to Yan! We're going to Yan right now!"

　There's no time to say anything!

　Without even taking a ride, Kal'tsit mounted the M3 and sped off towards the north.

　"Ah."

　Chen Lingxu raised an eyebrow, tapped his email, and looked at the bunch of ramblings about the lynx that popped up inside. He couldn't help but feel a little ashamed.

　Sigh, there's a cat at home who longs for me, but I'm having fun with the cat's owner.

　"looking at what?"

　A delicate, fair hand reached out from behind his shoulder, and the faint scent of grapes made Chen Lingxu sniff.

　The functions of Originium are a bit too comprehensive.

　"Some rumors."

　"About what?"

　"It's about Theresa."

　Precys hugged the greedy big child and didn't pay much attention to him.

　"What are your plans for dealing with the Originium here?"

　"Let's see and then talk."

　Chen Lingxu's visit to Yan Kingdom was definitely not just for fun.

　There are three major Originium veins and three Originium stones. I now have one in hand, but I need to find the other two and exchange data before I can determine what's wrong with them.

　Prestis's awakening occurred during Ananna's second summoning, and the changes to the Originium program during that period were indeed largely irrelevant to her. Furthermore, she herself is now indifferent to the changes to the Originium program.

　The person she was waiting for had returned; her civilization... was beyond saving. Let's get down to business... no, let's get ready to lie down.

　"If we don't step up our efforts, that thing might be coming soon."

　"You discovered that thing?"

　"We found some old records. Would you like to take a look?"

　"Oh? Take a look."

　The data within the Originium began to twist.

　When they opened their eyes again, the place where the two of them were was just an empty platform.

　In the center of the platform stands a white, damaged stone tablet.

　"These are all pieces of information that we have discovered and recorded. They have been drifting in the universe for so long that some of them, like their civilizations, have begun to fade."

　Clinging to his back, Precys guided him closer to this spot.

　"It's like... a tree."

　"That's right. After all, it was created based on her theories. So its form is like a tree stump. Every line extending from here is like a branch of a tree, representing the existence of a civilization."

　Chen Lingxu casually touched a tree branch with his fingertip.

　A damaged planet lies before them; they no longer stand on the ground, but float in space.

　"Did you see that light?"

　That light?

　A dazzling yet cold light, filled with countless colors, like a comet, traversed the universe.

　"Is he that lumberjack?"

　"Perhaps. All the galaxies it passed through faded away, returning to the void and darkness of the universe."

　"Whether the civilizations that follow its path pray, revere, fear, are angry, or rebel, it is all meaningless to it. All that remains are the ruins of countless civilizations."

　"It sounds familiar."

　As Chen Lingxu listened to Precys's description, he stroked his chin and fell into deep thought.

　Dude, is this thing not called a civilization-devouring predatory planet?

　Chapter Sixty-Five: The Inescapable Five Finger Mountain

　Although our understanding of lumberjacks is still incomplete, at least we now know they are not some abstract entity. Since they exist in this universe, there are corresponding ways to deal with them.

　Chen Lingxu played with her for a while longer before returning to the material world.

　With a swift movement, he caught the deer-like bodhisattva who had half-heartedly come to him again last night.

　"Today I still have to go tease the monkeys... no, I mean, tame the roc."

　The Qilin Celestial Venerable, who had almost wandered into the neighboring Xiniu Hezhou, pinched the tail of the Deer Bodhisattva and got up to go and meet the people here again.

　"The strongest Taoist master in modern times?"

　Everyone has their own information channels.

　Having studied Originium for so many days, Chen Lingxu had figured out the most convenient way to use it. He collected various information from the Originium particles floating in the air of Terra, and then divided them into corresponding areas within the Originium database. Whatever information he wanted to know, he could extract and read it from the corresponding area.

　It can be said that on Terra today, all living or non-living things carrying Originium particles are channels through which Originium records information into the material world.

　There are only two types of creatures that are unaffected by Originium.

　First, there are the colossal beasts. These enormous creatures roam outside the new biosphere of Terra, constructed from Originium. To understand them, one must personally question them.

　Secondly, there's the current state of the Terra Ocean. The changes there require him to find Kal'tsit or investigate them himself.

　By performing the above operations, Chen Lingxu was able to retrieve relevant data about the Golden-Winged Roc Xiao Yue he had encountered yesterday.

　"The most gifted Celestial Master in history. The most skilled in using the Li Huo Liu Yuan Shi technique."

　The opponent is also the strongest Celestial Master in the Great Yan Dynasty, without exception.

　Although she is approaching 100 years old, because her bloodline is pure enough, she has a long lifespan as a citizen of the gods. Being over 100 years old can only be described as being in her prime, still a beautiful young woman.

　"interesting."

　Looking at the information she had gathered overnight from the intelligence gathering in Yan Kingdom, she waved the palm-leaf fan she had just snatched from her disciple.

　"This is my first time in the Great Yan Kingdom, but I already have some old friends from the Yan Kingdom whom I've known for many years."

　"The people around me are either sluts or... not only do they not take it seriously, they even intentionally pick up girls."

　Thinking about how the deer-woman in disguise had treated him after their meeting yesterday, she fanned herself again, then patted her head with a palm-leaf fan.

　"That liquor was really strong; I still feel a bit unwell."

　Everything the other person did indicated that he was no ordinary person.

　"To be so close to a giant beast..."

　Could he also be a giant beast? Did some giant beast want to come to Yan Kingdom, so it created an avatar?

　But why is this incarnation a Qilin, not a dragon?

　"Didn't the people from the Zhu and Lin clans finish checking their family genealogies in one night?"

　The Qilin is also divided into many clans with different names. Since the other party appeared as a Qilin, they must have some connection with the Qilin.

　"Reporting to the Celestial Master, they didn't even investigate... The person who replied said when they heard about this..."

　"say what?"

　"Among all the Qilin clans, none dare to use Chen as their surname. This is a great disrespect."

　"How to say?"

　Although she had been a Celestial Master for many years, her master died a few years ago. In addition, she was exceptionally talented and had a somewhat arrogant personality, so she didn't take many Celestial Master stories seriously.

　After all, who has the time to read through ten thousand years of recorded history every day? What about learning magic? What about honing your skills? If you spend all your time reading history, when will you ever become the greatest teacher in the world?

　"Uh... The patriarch of the Lin clan said that the name of the Primordial Celestial Venerable from ten thousand years ago was Chen. No one in later generations of Qilin could compare to him, so there were no more Qilin of the Chen clan."

　"..."

　This is a bit troublesome.

　If the opponent is not a giant beast in disguise, but a real Qilin, then it means that he is either arrogant and overbearing, believing that his abilities are invincible.

　Either...

　The waving palm-leaf fan slowed down and finally stopped in front of her forehead. Then, an extraordinary idea emerged in her mind.

　No, it can't be that outrageous...

　"Master! That Qilin is coming this way!"

　Another person came running to report the situation, clearly having rushed over as soon as things started moving on the other side.

　"Old Celestial Master, Old Celestial Master! What's wrong with you?"

　In the short time it took to lower his head, the old Celestial Master, who had been deep in thought, collapsed into his chair, his eyes rolling back in his head. The young Celestial Master nearly fainted from fright as well.

　"..."

　Idiot.

　What else could be wrong with her like this?

　"Tea! Quickly, give the old master tea! Idiot, it has to be cold!"

　"it is good!"

　Two young Taoist priests hurriedly brought the herbal tea to her lips, and she took a couple of sips on the steps, pretending to wake up. Only then did she wave her palm-leaf fan and push away these two clueless brats.

　The current Celestial Master of the Great Yan Dynasty doesn't even have the ability to think independently. Is she the only one in charge of this huge Celestial Master's Mansion?

　She fainted, couldn't we find another Taoist priest to take over? Why do we have to wake her up?

　"Go away, go away. You panic at the slightest disturbance. What kind of behavior is that? With celestial masters like you, the people will have to fend for themselves."

　Stepping out of the house, the sun overhead

　It was so bright it made me dizzy.
