"Run! For lower levels, the difference in strength between All-Images primarily lies in the distance they can manipulate objects. So, as long as you stay far away from them, you'll be fine. You can also use Cyclic Lockdown, which can have some effect," Lan Meng replied.

"...So, is the only way to fight All-Knowing with All-Knowing?" Li Cheng Yi couldn't think of any way to deal with such an opponent.

He couldn't possibly use his most primitive, lowest-level power to fight them, right? That would be suicide.

"So, what type of All-Knowing are you, Senior Brother? Didn't you say there are three types?" Li Cheng Yi changed the subject and continued to inquire.

"I'm also All-Image, after all, I haven't been promoted for long," Lan Meng smiled. "All-Knowing doesn't have other branches or levels in these aspects, only these three steps to climb, step by step, all the way to the peak. The last one is the Boundary."

"All-Image, All-Number, All-Reason. These are the three major directions. I've already demonstrated the All-Knowing methods of All-Image to you. All-Number, on the other hand, is the ability to manipulate quantities at will on this basis."

He thought for a moment and casually pointed to a group of people under a street lamp in the distance.

"See there? That's a group of people."

Li Cheng Yi nodded, puzzled, not knowing what he wanted to do.

Immediately afterward, he saw Lan Meng gently tap his finger, pointing it remotely at the group.

*Hiss.*

In an instant, the group of more than a dozen people was reduced to just one person, standing alone on the spot, looking dazed, not knowing what had happened.

"This is All-Number. I'm using a simulated illusion to demonstrate, but the actual situation is even more exaggerated. You can even directly reduce a person's quantity, turning them into a basic human cell."

He paused his finger and pointed to the ground.

Suddenly, a bowl-shaped pit appeared silently on the ground.

But Li Cheng Yi noticed that a small portion of the black soil that made up the earth had appeared on the tip of Senior Brother Lan Meng's finger.

"I have turned all the soil in this pit into only this one portion. Theoretically, for All-Knowing with infinite energy, for All-Number All-Knowing, if combined with All-Image, you will instantly have your power downgraded, and then immediately have your quantity reduced, becoming the most pitiful single-celled organism. Finally, you'll be crushed to death with a light pinch."

"." Li Cheng Yi had previously felt that his strength was already very strong, but now it seems...

He was still too naive.

"So, how do I deal with it?" He was a little helpless.

"You have the protection that Master gave you, All-Knowing can't capture you from a distance, what are you afraid of? As long as you don't get caught in their line of sight face-to-face, it's not a big problem," Lan Meng shook his head.

"Let's continue talking about the third, which is All-Reason. The most top-notch All-Knowing beings are basically at this level now. Theoretically, if the peak of All-Reason were willing, they could completely destroy, subvert, reverse, and knead the entire Black Sea into any shape they wanted. But because there are experts of the same level to contend with, it has formed the current equal balance."

Divine Eagle Nation.

A huge golden eagle quietly shuttled through an unknown dimension filled with flowing colorful light.

Its size was comparable to a super-large Dead Angle, but it never left the dimension to enter the Black Sea.

It simply flew endlessly in this dimensional space-time, day after day, year after year.

The myriad dimensions of the Black Sea had reached an incalculable number after being added to by various dimensional demon gods.

Most of the myriad things had extra layers of various dimensions superimposed on them.

Some of these dimensions were incomplete and damaged, slowly disappearing. Others were still stable and unchanging since ancient times.

The Divine Eagle Nation was in a special state of rapidly jumping between different dimensions, to hide its position and avoid being discovered.

It was like a tall building, where everyone else was honestly moving in one floor at a time.

But the Divine Eagle Nation was not. It was constantly going up and down the floors, looping back and forth without stopping.

Inside this giant divine eagle.

Above a white mountain range covered in ice and snow.

The cold wind howled, and white snow flew.

An eagle-headed man in golden armor stood on the peak of the snow mountain, facing the ten-thousand-foot ice cliff, looking up at the gray figure rapidly approaching in the sky.

"Friend, you've come uninvited, this isn't the etiquette and style of the former Royal City."

The figure approached rapidly, and with a flash, appeared hundreds of meters in front of the eagle-headed man, floating in mid-air.

"Eagle Emperor Suknila, when I used to dominate the Known, you were just an ordinary one-dimensional demon god, I never thought you would have achieved the supreme All-Reason, truly the world is unpredictable."

The gray figure was draped in a thick cloak, and a low, aged male voice came from within.

"Even the original Royal City, even the First Generation, didn't dominate everything known, right? There's no need to say such meaningless nonsense, talk about your intentions," Eagle Emperor Suknila said impatiently.

If it weren't for the fact that the other party had the same level of power fluctuations as him, he wouldn't have bothered to pay attention to his visit.

He was only considering that there were only a few at the peak of All-Reason, and if he could win over an alliance, it would be one more chance to fight against the Tian Ju Pavilion.

"My intention is very simple." The gray cloak said lightly, "The Liancheng Association has suffered from the lewdness of Tian Ju Pavilion for a long time, haven't you ever thought about resisting?"

"Heh, just say it directly." Eagle Emperor flicked his finger casually, and suddenly all the surrounding wind and snow instantly solidified and stopped, and everything entered a state of time stop.

This was to prevent possible leaks.

"Then I'll be blunt." The gray cloak smiled, "The third-ranked Eternal Ice Sea in the Liancheng Association, and the subsequent other forces, have all reached an agreement with us. The world has suffered from Tian Ju Pavilion for a long time, now we're only missing your Divine Eagle Nation to connect together and form an alliance."

"Oh? You want to from behind" Eagle Emperor instantly reacted.

"The Mother of Emptiness and the Beast Cult have already fallen into chaos, Tian Ju Pavilion wants to achieve the Unique Heaven, they are only missing the last few pieces of the puzzle, if we don't resist now, it will be too late in the future," the gray cloak said in a deep voice.

"Even if they achieve the Unique Heaven, so what?" Eagle Emperor raised his eyebrows.

"At that time, the Myriad Worlds will return to one, and no one in the Black Sea Known will be able to resist the Four Elders of Cai Tian. When there is no more mysterious power in the sky, all mysterious taboos will be greatly affected, and the power of all the rest of us will be weakened and suppressed.

With the domineering nature of Tian Ju Pavilion, do you think they will take action to unify the Liancheng Association and devour all the rebellious forces?" The gray cloak continued.

"What about the Unique Flower you achieved back then?" Eagle Emperor suddenly asked.

"." The gray cloak was silent.

"Half of it is missing, right?" A trace of mockery flashed in Eagle Emperor's eyes. "So, you're eyeing Tian Ju Pavilion's current progress? Wanting to usurp their place?"

"You're wrong. That's not my path. Back then, in order to reach the extreme of the Known and touch the Boundary, I did borrow external forces that didn't belong to me. Now I have paid the price I deserved. But Tian Ju Pavilion is different..."

"If you want to form an alliance, you can." Eagle Emperor interrupted, "But I have a condition."

He stared at the other party, and countless colorful spots of light like a galaxy flashed in his eagle eyes. Those were the countless Dead Angles he had swallowed into his main body.

"I want all the insights you gained from touching the Boundary back then!"

"Agreed!"

The gray cloak agreed without hesitation.

Unknown Area.

A huge, ancient, and dilapidated temple, completely black, releasing a faint red light around it, isolating the countless dark and unknown substances surging and rolling outside.

The overall shape of the temple was a tower, but from a distance, it looked like a one-story tower.

It was supported by huge, circular black stone pillars, and the stone pillars were carved with a large number of twisted and grotesque tentacles and faces.

Creatures of various unidentifiable species occasionally wriggled on the stone pillars, probing their faces and letting out ear-piercing wails.

Above the arched door in the middle of the temple, which was carved with countless dense ancient words and patterns, squatted a four-legged white dove with three heads.

The white dove was the size of a watermelon, and all three heads were now extending their ruby-like eyes, staring at the visitor standing in front of the door.

"What are you here for again? We are mutually hostile, our positions are different, there's nothing to talk about."

The white dove's three voices sounded at the same time, an old man, a woman, and a child, the three voices overlapping into one, giving people a strange and mysterious special texture.

"Pope Eiffel is different from the Emptiness Cult. I can feel it."

The visitor was wearing a black Taoist robe, a golden lotus Taoist crown, and behind him, a continuous stream of blue halo was slowly radiating.

This was an old Taoist. The clear words "Tian Ju Pavilion" on his Taoist robe meant that his identity was a top figure in the Tian Ju Pavilion.

"After so many battles and conquests, Pope Eiffel has acquiesced to our Liancheng Association consuming unknown chaotic giant beasts, and has never intervened to stop it. Obviously, your attitude is clear at a glance." The old Taoist's voice was loud and clear, and he was very confident in his judgment.

"As expected of Tian Hong, one of the Four Elders of Cai Tian, your reputation is well-deserved." The three-headed white dove revealed a strange smile.

"But that doesn't mean I'm willing to receive you."

"What if there's a chance to completely awaken Lord Asraduni?" Taoist Tian Hong smiled slightly.

"No, what you are doing is completely different from my Lord's path. There is no reference value." Pope Eiffel was not interested.

"We use cognition to stabilize everything, but the Black Sea is boundless, everything is originally there, they float and undulate, like dreams. What we stabilize and recognize is only our everything. There are countless other states, fluctuating and surrounding, existing outside of what we cannot perceive. So, do you think that what you know is really everything?" Taoist Tian Hong suddenly said leisurely.

"." Pope Eiffel was silent. "Fluctuating probability state... I didn't expect you to have reached this step too."

He exhaled and waved his wings.

The temple gate below slowly opened inward.

"Come in. You are qualified to meet with my Lord face to face," Pope Eiffel said in a deep voice.

Taoist Tian Hong did not hesitate, stepped in one step, and his figure instantly disappeared into it, like a bubble, instantly collapsing.

Leaving the three-headed white dove above the door to flap its wings and close the door again.

"All things are illusions, all are bubbles. If you want to find the truth, you must first step into reconstruction..."

His voice was soft, and he turned back into a sculpture, standing still and motionless.

Not long after, the door opened again.

Taoist Tian Hong flew out from it.

He didn't say a word, his eyes were pitch black, the blue light behind him was dim, and his body was covered with wounds and blood.

He didn't look at the white dove again, but flew straight into the distance, towards the temporary wartime stronghold where the Tian Ju Pavilion was located.

But he hadn't flown far.

A silver-white square crystal instantly took shape with him as the center, abruptly.

Inside the crystal, countless colorful flowers were layered on top of each other, rapidly opening from the top, bottom, left, and right in all directions.

Figures in gray cloaks appeared silently around the crystal.

Time and space instantly solidified, and countless dark gold ribbons composed of what seemed to be written numerical symbols floated out, wrapping the crystal into a huge cage.

This was Cyclic Lockdown, and it was a Cyclic Lockdown created by at least four All-Knowing beings!

"Do it!" One of the gray cloaks transmitted in a low voice.

*Shua!*

Four figures shot out at the same time, rushing into the crystal.

In an instant, the entire crystal, along with the dark gold ribbons, all became invisible, faded, and disappeared into the Black Sea, completely gone.
