Their numbers could reach hundreds of billions, even trillions. As "New Humans," their reproduction rate was undoubtedly among the fastest.

"They discovered us, and a great war erupted. Initially, we were no match and hid in the Sea of Chaos. However, we then reproduced frantically, and once our numbers reached hundreds of millions, we completely overwhelmed their sparse population."

"They were destined to lose, with no option but to await their demise, utterly crushed by us."

He frowned, sinking into another period of contemplation.

"Afterward, to overcome the numerical disparity against the natural Heavenly Dao, they reactivated the 'false Heavenly Dao' that earlier humans had used. They formed new armies using humans cultivated within their own universes, regenerating the human Heavenly Dao, and engaged us in human-wave tactics."

"For a time, both sides were evenly matched."

He closed his eyes again.

"The stalemate persisted for a time, only to be broken once more when the universe violently trembled. As our great war raged, the number of Saints surged, the Grand Dao became fully complete, the universe matured, and the power of bloodlines began to vanish."

"This vanishing bloodline power not only affected Saints but also the bloodline universes and Heavenly Daos, which were subsequently rejected by the Grand Universe. A complete universe would not experience such rejection, but these were fragmented singularities. A mature universe increasingly finds itself unable to tolerate foreign elements."

"The bloodline universes began to weaken, and with nature's assistance, we gradually overwhelmed them. The opposition steadily declined, ultimately making a desperate push, focusing their power on the Eleventh Order to contend with us for the nine chaotic singularity divine positions."

"Ultimately, whoever reached the Eleventh Order would render any disparity in military strength irrelevant. This level of suppressive power would irrevocably tip the balance and completely reverse the cosmic trend."

Having deduced this far, he suddenly opened his eyes and let out a cold snort.

"In the end, it still came back to the fundamental historical struggle for the Eleventh Order. Originally, the Immortal Realm was our contender; now it's the Myriad Heavens and Worlds. We've returned to the same critical point: the Eleventh Order was the last hope for the old beings, and now it's the last hope for the Heavenly Daos. After all, while the grand trend remains unyielding, minor details are subject to change!"

While many changes appear to have occurred, the grand cosmic trend has never been altered; only minor details have shifted.

The grand trend persists: the universe is reaching completion, the Eleventh Order is opening, and the old beings, in a final struggle against the new era, are vying for the last Eleventh Order, attempting to alter a future defined by vastly disparate power.

However, at this point, his deductions ceased. The nature of the Eleventh Order, after all, could not simply be extrapolated; how to achieve the breakthrough remained a mystery.

Furthermore, his deductions only covered the broad strokes; the specific intricacies posed a significant challenge.

Just as in the past, when the Immortal Realm predicted that a mature universe would enter an Age of Dharma Decline, their deduction was only half-complete. It was not merely an Age of Dharma Decline but also the nascent era for new life forms, a crucial detail they had overlooked.

"Perhaps I, too, have only deduced half of it, and much remains unknown." He took a deep breath. "After all, I am not entirely clear on how our lineage cultivates. The opportunity to attain the Eleventh Order is to depart the Chaotic Heavens, re-enter the mature universe, and cultivate anew. How one then achieves the Dao also remains unknown."

As he spoke, he looked at the small monitor in front of him and at the others. "I must find a way to contribute in this era, to prepare for the advent of our race."

However, he was not a bloodline Saint, so he could not use bloodline-based powers.

He didn't even dare to enter those "universes," fearing that their masters would immediately detect any anomaly.

"I cannot evolve a universe myself. I must establish a power, find an insider, a spy, to control a universe for me. I, too, must become a force within the Myriad Heavens."

He pondered for a moment, then began to wander around.

While Xu Zhi was unaware that he was deducing life, he silently observed him with great patience, curious to see what this formidable figure was planning. Perhaps he was already researching an unprecedented power system.

But after observing for a while, he merely wandered, scouting for individuals?

Xu Zhi scratched his head, then suddenly realized, "Oh, you need people? You should have told me sooner! What kind of genius is scarce? Most areas are my sandboxes now; you're essentially in my home, and there are plenty of talents for you to choose from."

All prior evolutions of the human Heavenly Dao faction became preparations for the natural Heavenly Dao.

The last remaining powerhouses of the human faction would conceal their identities, possess certain Heavenly Daos, and hide within the natural Heavenly Dao, becoming among the rulers of the new Heavenly Court of the Myriad Heavens.

Compared to individual life forms, a universe is naturally a higher level of existence.

"Moreover, the Great Emperor of the natural Heavenly Dao in the new Heavenly Court, despite expending immense effort to wage war and overturn the old order, could not completely eradicate those persistent threats. He knew they lurked among his subjects but had no means to eliminate them entirely."

"This is the grand trend."

He opened his eyes, musing, "After all, bloodline universes and bloodline beings are interconnected; they possess the potential for mutual possession. We, however, are completely distinct, lacking even bloodlines. If bloodline beings were to encounter us, they would never become entrenched problems; they would simply be bred like livestock!"

As new-era beings whose average intelligence and talent far surpassed that of lower-tier humans, their deductive capabilities were, naturally, exceptionally outstanding.

Moreover, as the first life form to emerge, he absorbed the largest volume of information from the Sea of Chaos.

"We are officially making our debut...."

He narrowed his eyes, paused for a moment, then smiled, "Given the current situation, if the opposing side maintains their current stance, they will undoubtedly be crushed by us. Their numbers are simply too scarce!"

Because they existed as universes, while he was an individual being.

He constantly calculated the future.

He continued his deductions.

"Further into the future, the universal Heavenly Daos across the Myriad Heavens and Worlds will soon discover the emergence of new chaotic life forms, initiating a collision between the two dominant forces of the Sea of Chaos."

"I must deduce what lies ahead..."

He closed his eyes, continuing to deduce history based on the existing data and intelligence.

This immediately sparked a strong sense of crisis within him; while bloodline life forms were destined for obsolescence, those universes, conversely, presented a potential threat.

"If they are not ruled by us, they will be ruled by the other dominant force of the Sea of Chaos! They are destined to fall from grace!"

"However, these old beings possessed deeply entrenched foundations, controlling the resources of the previous era. They were decadent and held themselves aloof, especially having first occupied the cosmic continents for defense. Overthrowing these 'old humans' would take some time."

He vaguely envisioned ancient beings, disguised, having taken new bodies and been reborn, hidden within the new Heavenly Court.

Image after image flashed continuously.

"In the future, the 'human Heavenly Dao faction' of those old bloodline beings will absolutely be unable to contend with the natural Heavenly Dao! They are a species destined for obsolescence, ultimately to be annihilated and erased by the natural Heavenly Dao."

"However, in the future, they would also be conquered and farmed... though not like we farmed them beneath our continents, within the nine great universes, but rather within some of the Myriad Heavens universes controlled by those Heavenly Daos."
