The message that black-haired Skylark meant to convey to him and Senior White was likely advising them to act cautiously in their forthcoming endeavors, to avoid inadvertently causing the collapse of the myriad realms of the universe.

“Yes, don’t worry,” Senior White assured from beside him.

At that moment, Senior White had made the utmost decision in his heart.

—If the dissociation of the Ninth Heavenly Dao from its divine seat caused the world to collapse, then transcending even further might also likely induce cataclysmic changes to the heaven and earth.

So, he decided it would be best for him to stay.

Senior White was aware of his unique qualities in certain aspects.

If he were to transcend the Immortal Heavenly Dao first, leaving Song Shuhang behind, there was no guarantee that he could prevent a collapse of the ‘myriad realms.’

But, if Song Shuhang transcended first, he could ensure the subsequent safety of all realms.

Because, as long as he was here, it would serve as the strongest testament to ‘peace’!

This was something Senior White was very clear about in his heart.

He was humorously known as the human mascot of the Nine Provinces Number One Chat Group, a title he never took pride in.

So… it would be him to oversee the myriad realms.

And then, he would study a plan to let the cleaned-up ‘Fourth Heavenly Dao Shell’ replace him.

“With Senior White’s guarantee, I suddenly feel much relieved,” Thrice Reckless Mad Saber obediently nodded his head.

His words carried an implied message—that the previous guarantees from Tyrannical Song hadn’t been entirely reassuring.

After all, Song Shuhang’s standing in the group was roughly at the same level as him, Copper Trigram, and Doudou.

Perhaps due to being fellow sufferers, Song Shuhang immediately picked up on the undertones in Thrice Reckless’s words, “…”

“So, I’ll go back and relay this to Skylark,” Thrice Reckless Mad Saber stood up.

“Don’t rush, let me first apply the dragon pattern stickers of tsunami and waves to you,” Senior White stopped Thrice Reckless Mad Saber.

“There’s no need, Senior White, I’m quite alright as is,” Thrice Reckless Mad Saber repeatedly waved his hands.

But who could resist the Heavenly Dao White?

Soon, two dragon patterns were added to his golden core.

And Heavenly Dao Tyrannical Song also bestowed a ‘Liquid Fat Ball’ on the side.

The whole process was like presenting a certificate plus a trophy.

After completing the procedure, Song Shuhang gently tapped and sent Thrice Reckless Mad Saber back to the main world—without giving Thrice Reckless any opportunity to showcase himself.

Some viruses are best left to spread within the Nine Provinces Number One Chat Group and not infect the myriad realms.

After seeing off Thrice Reckless Mad Saber.

“Who’s next?” Senior White asked.

“Um… Who was it again?” Song Shuhang also paused.

He entered an inner sight state, examining the star road map on his fat whale golden core.

At that moment, the message from black-haired Skylark, transmitted through the ‘Cultivator Chat System,’ had some additional content.

This portion was clearly intended to ‘avoid Thrice Reckless.’

It was content that black-haired Skylark did not want Thrice Reckless Mad Saber to see.

“Shuhang,” Senior White called.

“I see it,” Song Shuhang tacitly replied.

More content began to gradually emerge from the information left by black-haired Skylark:

[The departure of the Ninth ‘God’ will cause the world to collapse, the heavens and earth to lose order, leading to a complete reboot.]

[The Second God, possessing the divine authority to ‘divine the future,’ foresaw this possibility.]

[Subsequently, the plan to forge a pure ‘Immortal Replacement’ began.]

[Simultaneously, the eternal ‘Eighth God’ plan was laid out.]

[Eons passed.]

[The Immortal Replacement Plan continued until the world collapsed, yet it was still not perfected. The Immortal Replacement was not sufficient to bear the pressure of the Heavenly Dao role.]

[The eternal ‘Eighth God’ plan also failed to prevent the ascent of the Ninth God. The originally supposed perfect Eighth God held significant flaws, thus becoming the shortest reigning among past gods.]

As Song Shuhang connected this information with the intelligence he had, assorted thoughts raced through his mind.

The Eternal Eighth God? If he recalled correctly… The Eighth God of the Black Dragon World, also appeared to be a sphere?

Was the spherical god of the Black Dragon World pushed into proving its Dao by behind-the-scenes forces?

According to this theory, originally, the Second God might have aimed to build an eternally online, devoid of emotions, Eighth God to firmly occupy the seat of the Eighth Heavenly Dao, blocking the path for the Ninth God.

—As long as I live long enough, not to mention my son, even my grandson wouldn’t have the chance to inherit my throne!

Unexpectedly, the Eighth Heavenly Dao itself had defects; the ‘Eternal Eighth God’ plan did not succeed.

This scenario was somewhat similar to the experiences of the current Heavenly Dao in the main world.

Today’s fat ball and its corresponding heavenly authority also failed to perfectly prove its Dao due to its defects, and it didn’t stay in the heavenly seat for long.

“So, could the current ‘Sphere Heavenly Dao’ of the myriad realms also have been created to prevent our ascent as the Ninth Heavenly Dao?” Song Shuhang speculated.

“Hmm, possibly,” Senior White added, “But regardless, that’s all in the past now. We have already proved the Ninth Heavenly Dao, which is an unchangeable fact. Hence, we only need to look forward!”

“So, the other ‘Immortal Replacement’ plan… It must be Senior Skylark herself then,” Song Shuhang stated.

This answer was already quite clear.

Senior Skylark’s purpose of creation was to replace the Ninth God once it vacated the heavenly seat, becoming a ‘Substitute Heavenly Dao’, ensuring the continued stability of the myriad realms.

Yet, even with the successful creation of the ‘bone of eternity’, Senior Skylark alone wouldn’t suffice to act as Heavenly Dao.

—At the very least, she would need to achieve the state Song Shuhang had before proving his Dao, the ‘Full Body Semi-Immortal plus Perfect Immortal Whale Golden Core,’ to tentatively hold the position of Heavenly Dao and withstand the pressure of eternal power.

“Therefore, black-haired Senior Skylark conveyed this content to us… Is it because, with no choice left, she wants us to use her?” Song Shuhang guessed, deducing that these revelations came after Thrice Reckless had left.

“Skylark doesn’t know we possess a complete, pure ‘Fourth Heavenly Dao Shell’, so she must be considering this,” Senior White stated, “However… the original ‘Immortal Replacement’ plan is precisely what we need.”

He and Song Shuhang had originally planned to conquer this topic within a month!

Unexpectedly, a perfected plan had quickly come knocking on their door.
