"Are you threatening me? Do you think that being controlled by a chip and becoming one of the Mechanical Clan allows you to act recklessly?"

The face of the Wisdom Goddess was as cold as ice, staring at Zhou Yan with anger.

"It's not a threat, just that I'm different now, I simply don't like being threatened by a woman."

Zhou Yan replied coldly, his voice echoing with a hint of mechanization.

"Hmm, that's not right."

The Wisdom Goddess Yamina suddenly paused slightly and said, "Jiang Tianling, check again, I'll watch."

"Do you want to destroy the chip, or are you doubting the super-brain hub of the Mechanical Emperor?"

Jiang Tianling frowned slightly, appearing somewhat displeased.

After all, such a question is a doubt about the ability of the Mechanical Emperor.

"You overthink, I'm not doubting, just checking again. After all, we were strategizing; haven't you considered that Lee Ran might also strategize? It's possible Zhou Yan is only temporarily controlled."

The Wisdom Goddess suddenly spoke, and as she did, she immediately looked at Zhou Yan, and in an instant, life soul energy overflowed in all directions, seemingly suddenly penetrating Zhou Yan's Soul Sea and Divine Soul.

Zhou Yan just felt a chilly sensation all over, but his expression remained very calm, composed, indifferent.

It seemed as if the invading life soul energy wasn't targeting him, Zhou Yan, or perhaps such a method that could nearly cause him soul destruction didn't bother him anymore.

"Did you check? Once the chip connects to the Emperor's super-brain, it can't possibly make a mistake. If Lee Ran was truly capable, he wouldn't attack the chip only now."

Jiang Tianling said calmly.

"Perhaps he precisely calculated your mindset, which is why he acts now."

The Wisdom Goddess Yamina snorted coldly.

"True, that's possible, but that chip is merely a replica; the original has long been branded into the internal structure by the Emperor.

It passed the test, proving the internal integrity.

Externally, it indeed has unknown runes imprinted, but instead, the traces have been erased. However, that's just Lee Ran's shadow, not real, used to numb Zhou Yan, making him relax, allowing for complete control."

Jiang Tianling's explanation was complicated, but Yamina and Gles present understood.

"So, a possibility the Goddess previously warned of has now occurred. If not, perhaps we would have also been similarly plotted against?"

Gles inhaled deeply, surprised.

"Indeed, any underestimation of Lee Ran will ultimately suffer, so this Lee Sha wasn't controlled from the beginning, control was an illusion.

Afterward, the chip first controlled Lee Sha, then Zhou Yan; if they want to break the situation, they must attack the chip. But how could the chip of the Mechanical Clan be so easily cracked? Hence, when Zhou Yan felt his own death, it was indeed true.

But this Zhou Yan fully inherits everything, making it impossible to distinguish if he truly died or it's a fake death."

"That's memory bridging and replacement, combined with devouring methods, defying destiny."

Jiang Tianling confidently said.

As he spoke, it was like strategizing, with a terrifying aura.

This aura made Gles glance in acknowledgment.

Then, as if realizing something, Gles' eyes suddenly brightened, saying, "Have you started condensing the Immortal Evil Soul? Did you refine and breakthrough Lee Sha's Perfect Supreme Soul?"

"Correct, you finally realized, so you know why I don't flatter you? Because the height I'm at now requires your efforts to reach, and it may not necessarily be smooth. Gles, Hero of Ten Thousand Worlds, I am already ahead, waiting for you."

Jiang Tianling patted Gles' shoulder, speaking earnestly.

His palm applied a slight force, and Gles felt as though he was confined, unable to move.

However, Jiang Tianling withdrew his strength and did not target Gles.

Yet, when he withdrew his strength, streams of life soul energy locked onto Gles, rendering him similarly immobile.

"The power of the Mechanical Puppet, but you've only refined a few parts of it. I can extinguish a pile with a single breath. You don't even qualify to be an ant in front of the Immortal, so there's no need to boast. The time rules you cultivate differ, the essence of the cultivation time differs, in the river of time, under the same environment, Gles, Zhou Yan, killing you is as easy as cutting grass."

"You have no qualifications to be arrogant."

"Moreover, perhaps the Returning True Clan rose because of the Jiang family, but without the Prince of the Returning True Clan, without me, you know better the situation of your Jiang family than I do."

The life soul energy of the Wisdom Goddess suppressed Jiang Tianling, her voice icy, restoring Gles' dignity.

But Gles became even more silent.

Clearly, this absolute genius had never been so provoked.

"True, but if I don't act this way, I'm afraid I won't be able to contend with the Prince of Glais in a domain showdown."

Jiang Tianling still smiled, his aura full of boldness.

Then he looked at Zhou Yan, directly taking out a unique crystal skeleton in his hand, saying, "Erase all previous memories, body and Divine Soul, reactivate and restart in two hours."

"In addition, ten thousand drops of Emperor Blood are ready, after refining the energy, I will infuse them into the Domain Energy Golden Plate, his own Domain Energy Golden Plate will also be returned to him."

"Afterwards, everything that should disappear will disappear, and send him into that space entrance from earlier, making him return to the moment before, like a brief disorder in space-time."

"The Immortal Magnetic Divine Rules on the Domain Energy Golden Plate have already been recorded and transmitted back by the chip. It's okay to give him the whole Domain Energy Golden Plate, but those three have already perished, unable to complete the subsequent layout, so the Perfection was completed by the Ancient Demon Beast Venerable, presenting the flesh fragments of the three."

"Wisdom Goddess, there's no need for you to appear for now, and in the future, he will not know your identity. You will hide behind the scenes again and only act when necessary."

"He knows nothing, just like in the past, which is better. The chip also needs to lurk with new technology, and will not easily present commands unless absolutely necessary."

"This is the communication setup from the Mechanical Emperor. Do you see anything that needs to be added?"

Jiang Tianling said, the pressure on him had dissipated, as he took out a crystal chip and handed it to Wisdom Goddess Yamina.

Yamina glanced at the information on the chip, nodded slightly, and said, "This is good. However, to be honest, I don't quite like this new Zhou Yan, he's too ruthless and cold, seems unlike him."

"It's normal, it will be fine after the reboot. But it is also because of this that I am not afraid of him finding out the secret. Alright, let's start taking action, once done, I will continue on my path to become stronger."

Jiang Tianling said.

Wisdom Goddess Yamina nodded gently, all three of them ignoring Zhou Yan's existence.

Soon, Jiang Tianling had already started the crystal skeleton in his hand, and then this crystal skeleton suddenly flew towards Zhou Yan's body.

Zhou Yan did not react, allowing the crystal skeleton to fly into the Soul Sea within his body.

The next moment, Zhou Yan's gaze became fixed, his entire person seemed completely rigid, and he fell straight to the ground.

"Start the setup."

Jiang Tianling said.

"Observe for a moment, see if there are any abnormalities."

"It's already impossible for there to be any problems, if there were, the Immortal Star River would have long since slipped out of control, and the Mechanical Emperor's super brain hub could have been occupied or even destroyed, which is evidently impossible."

Jiang Tianling said coldly.

"Hmm, it's just that I always feel a bit uneasy, as if something is amiss."

The Wisdom Goddess looked towards Zhou Yan who had collapsed on the ground, seemingly with a sense of inexplicable emotion, instinctively said.

"You are moved."

Gles's cold voice caused a ripple in the still water of the Wisdom Goddess's heart.

"Indeed, the chip detected your abnormal genetic fluctuations, you are somewhat moved, but this is normal, after all, the women of the Returning True Clan have always been faithful and dedicated. Gles's willingness to sacrifice, I truly admire."

Jiang Tianling's words were calm, slightly solemn.

Even though Gles was aware of Jiang Tianling's mocking intent, he said nothing, his expression just became a bit colder.

"Perhaps so, after this matter, I might return to the True Clan for a while, my greatest foe is already subjugated, and I've done what I need to do, guarding the Returning True Clan is my only responsibility now."

Yamina's face bore some sadness after Jiang Tianling detected her condition with the chip, she said tiredly.

"Hmm, rest assured, I promised before, I will never break my word. In the future, the entire Immortal Buddha Realm will belong to the people of the Returning True Clan."

"Although the Mechanical Clan is ruthless, promises are bound by program instructions and will not be broken."

Jiang Tianling said.

"If there is no trust, how could we have come this far? Let's begin."

Yamina said in a somewhat dull tone.

Jiang Tianling nodded, and the three of them began to make arrangements.

...

The light rain still drizzled, and the Soul Poison in the Divine Soul had already vanished.

After diving into that space, it was as if time had briefly frozen, followed by an indescribable feeling of upheaval.

When Zhou Yan came to his senses, he had an inexplicable feeling of 'things have changed,' giving rise to a sense of 'I am not myself.'

He sighed slightly, thinking it was the impact of the Great Perfection sensation in the Chaos Domain.

Zhou Yan pondered, then vaguely remembered he seemed to have been pursuing the Golden Pearl here.

This world was extremely cold, the drizzle had an unknown corrosive force on the Divine Body and Divine Soul, Zhou Yan was sensing the Golden Pearl's aura but suddenly thought he might struggle to sense anything.

"Ahead, hmm... it should be that way, they should be over there... "

"Hmm, strange, why do I suddenly feel this indescribable familiarity? It seems I have experienced this scene?"

"Afterwards, it seems... it seems I killed three people? I guess I'll find out by going over."

Zhou Yan's heart trembled slightly, then he immediately sensed in a certain direction.
