As a highly advanced technological civilization, the power Ye Chuan displayed was something many of them had never witnessed before.
"No, that's not right. There's more to it," Augustus pondered, then said, "Rewind! From the moment Kalen arrived on Planet Blue Source, bring up every single movement this man named Ye Chuan has made! Lock onto his space-time coordinates!"
"Understood! I will use the most direct and precise method to expand the time-rewind scope... Locking onto the timeline coordinates of the target, Ye Chuan..."
The cold electronic voice echoed through the command center as the images on the giant holographic screen flashed rapidly, eventually freezing above the central plaza of District Seven.
In the footage, Ye Chuan, dressed in simple black casual wear, hovered in mid-air, looking bewildered at the surrounding skyscrapers and shuttling aircraft.
That was the exact moment he had just crossed over to Planet Blue Source.
"He is indeed not from Planet Blue Source," a researcher immediately stated. "The identity chips of all citizens on Planet Blue Source are recorded. There is no information on this person whatsoever; he appeared out of thin air."
The footage continued to play.
They saw Ye Chuan being stopped by Lin Xi for speeding in mid-air, surrounded by four armed drones.
In the next second, Ye Chuan simply snapped his fingers, and both the drones and the energy baton in Lin Xi's hand simultaneously turned to dust.
"What kind of power is this? A Transcendent's telekinesis? Magic? Or spiritual energy...?"
Whispers broke out across the command center as many people set down what they were holding and began to study Ye Chuan.
Immediately after, the scene switched to a confrontation between Ye Chuan and Naiguo.
The hero Naiguo, wearing a golden battle suit, was struck down by an invisible, oppressive force, crashing to the ground like a kite with a broken string, without even the slightest room to resist.
"An instant kill with one move? He's just an S-class hero in the Transcendent system. Next scene," Augustus said flatly.
Following that, a sun-blotting black shadow engulfed the entirety of District Seven. The thousand-meter-tall Level Nine Disaster, the Abyssal Touch, slowly approached, its countless tentacles sweeping across and causing skyscrapers to collapse like toy blocks.
Just when everyone had plunged into despair, Ye Chuan appeared right above the head of the Abyssal Touch.
He merely extended his index finger and gave a gentle tap, instantly killing it.
"The Power of Words?"
Augustus's expression had become incredibly solemn. He stared fixedly at the screen. "What kind of power is this? The Power of Words? Speaking things into existence? Isn't that a magic system technique with massive side effects?"
"Why does it look like it didn't affect him at all?"
However, this was not the end.
In the footage, Ye Chuan stood above the battlefield and gently raised his right hand.
"Mass Resurrection."
A massive golden magic circle enveloped the entire battlefield, and countless tiny golden motes of light rose from the ground, merging into the cold corpses.
Tens of thousands of soldiers, under everyone's watchful eyes, slowly opened their eyes and sat up from the ground.
Even the soldiers who had already mutated into aberrations saw the black pustules on their bodies begin to recede; their twisted limbs returned to normal, transforming back into human form.
"Ma... Mass Resurrection?!"
The command center instantly erupted into an uproar.
"This is impossible! Resurrection magic was lost long ago! Even the Higher Star Regions don't have resurrection magic, do they?"
"Single-target resurrection magic still exists, but this mass resurrection magic..."
"This is not a power that should exist in our star region."
"He resurrected tens of thousands of people! And even those aberrations that had already been corrupted by the Outer Gods! The corruption of the Outer Gods is irreversible!"
For the first time, Augustus encountered something completely beyond his imagination.
Mass resurrection.
Purifying the corruption of the Outer Gods.
Either of these two abilities appearing in this universe would be enough to cause a massive uproar.
And now, they were actually concentrated in the same person.
The footage continued to play.
They saw Ye Chuan snap his fingers, and an invisible cognitive corruption spread out. The aberrations that were originally madly attacking the humans suddenly changed direction and began frantically slaughtering each other.
"Reverse corruption... He can actually reverse-corrupt the creations of the Outer Gods?" a researcher said in shock.
"The corruption of the Outer Gods operates on a conceptual rule level. It has always been the Outer Gods corrupting others; no one has ever been able to corrupt them in return..."
"Unless... his corruption level is even higher than that of the Outer Gods."
"He is an Outer God!!!!!"
Finally, the research institute arrived at a logical conclusion.
That was, Ye Chuan was an Outer God!
As soon as these words were spoken, the entire command center instantly fell into a dead silence.
Everyone looked at each other in dismay.
Would an Outer God use mass resurrection?
That didn't seem right, did it?
How could so many different powers be mixed together in one person?
"No, he's not an Outer God. That's not right."
Just then, the scene switched back to the central plaza of District Seven.
After dealing with Kalen, Ye Chuan raised his finger and pointed at the pure white star shuttle in the sky. He clearly intended to come to the Core Star Region in person.
Seeing this, Augustus's expression changed drastically.
He was coming to the Core Star Region in person?
He wasn't going to hide in the Frontier Star Regions, but was actively coming straight to their doorstep?
"Idiot! That damn idiot!" Augustus finally couldn't help but curse out loud, slamming his fist fiercely onto the control console.
"That moron Kalen! What kind of monster did he provoke!"
He finally understood now that Kalen hadn't just been unlucky, nor had he underestimated his enemy.
It was because the opponent was too freakishly overpowered!!!
It exceeded everyone's imagination.
An Outer God?
Magic?
Immortal cultivation?
All concentrated in a single person?
What the hell was this thing?
Even if there were dual cultivators, this kind of cultivation shouldn't exist, right? Single powers like the Power of Words or corruption were already incredibly rare to see on their own.
"Director... what do we do now?" a researcher asked. "He has already boarded the star shuttle. Given the shuttle's speed, he will be here very soon."
Augustus took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down.
"We cannot let him come here. We can't assess his threat level. If he can be dealt with, that's one thing... but if he can't, he will be an extremely troublesome existence."
"Immediately activate the Star Wall Defense System. Lockdown all hyperspace jump channels leading from Star Region B231 to the Core Star Region."
"Notify the Divine Punishment Squad. Have them head immediately to the Alpha Space Station midway to intercept him. Tell them that at all costs, they must keep that man there."
"I think if Outer Gods are considered indescribable, then that man is even more terrifying than an Outer God. His origins are too mysterious. Even with space-time coordinates, we could only find footage of him just arriving on that planet; we know absolutely nothing else. We must be cautious."
"Even if it means avoiding a fight, we have to persuade him to stop."
"At the same time, encrypt all the video files and send them to the higher-ups immediately."
As the orders were issued one after another, the entire Investigation Department instantly kicked into high gear.
Countless encrypted messages were sent out from the command center, spreading throughout the entire Core Star Region.

ing gift was a patch of barren land, and disciples were all picked up along the way. He spent fifty years diligently building three "ramshackle little sects," thinking he could finally live a carefree life relying on his disciples. But right at the fifty-year mark, he was suddenly swept away by a spatial rift and exiled to the Chaos Desolation, the Disorderly Ruins. There was no spiritual energy there, only slaughter. Relying on the cultivation feedback from his disciples, Gu Changyuan hacked his way through a sea of blood for eleven hundred years. When the system finally fished him back out, he discovered the ramshackle little sects he'd built back then had developed a rather... unusual style. Hold on...
