But now, everything is gone!
For some reason, deep within the foundational code of the Prophet Mecha's all-knowing calculations, the imprints of the Intelligent Machinery version's core rules are silently fading.
At the same time, several enormous Satellite-Class War Fortresses finally arrived belatedly.
The Satellite-Class War Fortress opened, and several Intelligent Machinery Commanders appeared outside.
They looked at the Prophet Mecha standing still in place, their gaze sweeping across the desolate wilderness, a nameless sorrow arising in their hearts.
And on their bodies, the aura belonging to the Intelligent Machinery version is disappearing, gradually being assimilated by the Great Collapse version.
Until today, they still belonged to the creatures of the Intelligent Machinery version, but with the collapse of the Version Fragments, they lost their anchoring point in the Great Destruction Realm.
From this moment, they truly integrated into the Great Collapse version, becoming native inhabitants following version changes and transitions.
As for the Prophet Mecha, with the imprint of the Intelligent Mechanism core rules in the foundational code completely disappearing, the mark belonging to the Intelligent Machinery version is totally erased.
Then, the Dimension Blade on the Prophet Mecha's arm slowly concealed.
He turned his head to look at the few hundred Intelligent Mechanism Race present, as well as the enormous Satellite-Class War Fortress, and the All-Knowing Mecha raised his right hand and said loudly:
"The Intelligent Machinery City is now history. I will inherit the legacy of the Intelligent Machinery City, and seek a new home on your behalf!"
Hundreds of Intelligent Mechanism people present exchanged a glance, then respectful bowed down to the Prophet Mecha.
"Following the Prophet's revelation!"
...
Lu Yan naturally did not know what happened at the Version Fragment relic site.
Borrowing the power of the Abyssal God's force, after consecutively opening several Spatial Passages, and confirming that no pursuers were following, Lu Yan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
It must be said, Lu Yan's decision to use World Destruction Rules to destroy the Version Fragments was indeed correct.
If delayed any further, he would surely have been intercepted by the Prophet Mecha leading the Intelligent Machinery City army in the midst of the Version Fragments.
The Prophet Mecha had once suffered a loss in Entering the Dream World, coupled with the Causality Coordination Module's ability to forecast the future, it was very likely to detect Lu Yan's trap.
Once the four demons and the Intelligent Mechanism army were prepared, as long as they didn't voluntarily enter the Version Fragments, waiting for the after-effects of the World Destruction Rules to subside, Lu Yan could still easily be surrounded.
"Longevity Celestial Venerable?" A trace of coldness appeared in Lu Yan's eyes.
At present, he couldn't confront any of those Peak of Nascent Soul demons, but if he grasped the opportunity to fully digest the current gains, he might be able to collect some profits ahead of time.
Momentarily calming his thoughts, Lu Yan finally had time to focus on the version update interface.
The importance of new privileges was undeniable to Lu Yan.
Yet after the cool-down period of escaping, Lu Yan's mindset had changed.
Recalling the scene when the space repaired itself after the Version Fragments shattered, as well as the timing of the task appearance, Lu Yan gained a faint understanding in his heart.
"So destroying the Version Fragments, removing the foreign rules attached to the Great Destruction Realm, is the restoration of the Great Collapse version.
As long as the Version Fragments are continuously destroyed, can this task be completed?"
Thinking of this, a contemplative look flashed in Lu Yan's eyes.
"The Great Collapse version was birthed from the battles among This World's Only One, tearing apart dozens of versions, converged under the collision of endless power.
The Great Destruction Realm was thus born, possessing a set of rules belonging to itself, forming a unique and independent version.
However, strictly speaking, the Great Collapse version cannot be considered a complete version; the main reason is the presence of numerous Version Fragments from other versions within it."
"Like an emperor ruling over a dynasty, yet within the territory of his dynasty, numerous Vassal Kings have established nation within nations.
These Vassal States have their own laws, not only beyond the jurisdiction of the emperor, but they can even attract people from other dynasties to enter their territories, calling themselves subjects of the Vassal States, without any allegiance to the dynasty.
Such a situation is absolutely intolerable for the emperor, and the same applies to the entire Great Collapse version."
"All major version forces are collecting resources from the Great Collapse version, feeding back into their own Version Fragments to enhance their power.
Moreover, due to the presence of various Rule Fragments, the Great Collapse version fundamentally lacks true native inhabitants, and the creatures brought by version updates are divided according to version camp, clashing with the Great Collapse version and the world version update system."
"Perhaps it is precisely due to this abnormal disorder of rules that the Great Collapse version hasn't birthed a Celestial Dao, and most of the areas within the version remain desolate.
Despite the immense size of the Great Collapse version far surpassing other versions, it remains incomplete."
Lu Yan's gaze swept over the prompt on the version update interface.
Though the privilege rewards were enticing, Lu Yan was not blinded by the immediate rewards.
Having masterfully controlled the version update interface for so long, Lu Yan was very aware of one thing, which was that the version update interface had never actively issued any task.
Because the version update interface is more like a guidance tool embodying the characteristics of an Unchanging, rather than a product like a system.
Even the specified version privileges last time appeared passively only after Lu Yan completed the incarnation task.
This time, the active task made Lu Yan keenly aware of its oddity.
Besides, there was another more evident piece of information.
Lu Yan looked at the version update interface, at the text prompt regarding the task.
[Repair...Great Collapse version...foreign...fragments, can obtain...privileges...rewards!]
Having been in contact with the world version update interface for so long, Lu Yan immediately noticed the issue with this series of text prompts.
This task prompt is not cohesive, with a series of ellipses, indicating that triggering this so-called repair was not a normal occurrence.
Lu Yan had also previously seen similar text prompts.
When the Longevity Celestial Venerable attempted to interfere with version updates, similar situations appeared in the options related to the Longevity version.
This sufficiently indicated that this task was not issued by the version update interface itself but was the result obtained after interference by external forces.
Combining this information, the answer was already obvious.
Thinking of this, Lu Yan looked up towards Above the Sky.
The sky of the Great Collapse version differed from ordinary versions, the celestial domain of the Great Collapse version was unstable, possessing abundant rule resources outside the realm, always competing focus for major version forces.
Only by occupying a celestial domain can one qualify as a top version force.
Land of the Gods, All Immortals Alliance, Intelligent Machinery City, Ten Directions Martial Arts, Seven Gods Church... Nine powerful version forces formed Nine Heavens, dividing the entire celestial domain.
Even though the Intelligent Machinery City was unique itself, difficult to harvest rule resources, its control over the Nine Heavens remained unwavering.
If based on the situation of power shifts, the destruction of the Intelligent Machinery City would inevitably result in another version force replacing it, controlling the domain belonging to the Intelligent Machinery City.
But the collapse of the Intelligent Machinery Version Fragments happened too abruptly, all traces remaining in the world were thoroughly erased, and the domain controlled by the Intelligent Machinery City consequently slipped from control.
After countless years, the Nine Heavens which enveloped the Great Destruction Realm were no longer complete; the blank sky finally unveiled the essence of the Great Collapse version.
At the moment the Intelligent Machinery Version Fragments collapsed, the Great Collapse version began to revive, which had been suppressed by numerous Version Fragments.
Furthermore, without Version Fragments, the Intelligent Mechanism Race will autonomously transform into native inhabitants of the Great Collapse version, becoming life forms belonging to the Great Collapse version.
The flaw of this world for tens of thousands of years was supplemented, finally allowing an existence that should have been nurtured at the beginning of the version's birth to manifest.
The corner of his mouth curved into a smile, Lu Yan gazed at the sky above, speaking in a calm tone:
"Great Collapse Celestial Dao, let's conduct a transaction."
