Three people digested the information Han Xiao revealed for quite a while before they finally understood.

Louis was somewhat hesitant.

"Black Star, you're not trying to fool us, are you..."

"Regrettably, not this time." Han Xiao shrugged.

Marbruce had a strange expression. He pondered, "So, we're all people who have died and been reborn several times in a cycle, essentially trapped in a closed sub-dimension, and our ultimate goal is to break through this sub-dimension and return to the main universe?"

"Well, although the difference is quite large, you can understand it that way if you want." Han Xiao blinked.

"The implication is that everything our civilization has experienced from scratch, all the predetermined development trajectories, has already happened several times, and was even 'personally' created by our former selves?"

"More or less like that." Han Xiao nodded.

"Let me process this for a moment..."

The leader of the Void Spirit Religion pressed his forehead, feeling his blood pressure soaring.

Suddenly bombarded with so much information, the three felt that the worldview they had formed over their lives had been shattered. Faced with such a situation, they found that the political and military issues they usually considered had all become insignificant.

"So, we were so powerful..."

Marbruce still had shock on his face as he muttered to himself.

Han Xiao ruthlessly interrupted his imagination, "It's not that you guys are powerful, but that the three great civilizations of the Ultimate Knowledge are powerful. The current you are three younger brothers compared to your past peak 'selves'. Don't try to take credit for the current three great civilizations. Without me, you would still know nothing."

"..."

The three felt a little stabbed.

Even though it was the truth, couldn't they be allowed to indulge in a little fantasy?

But no matter what, suddenly learning these secrets gave the three of them a sense of pride that their ancestors had been wealthy, and they felt that their backs were a little straighter.

"Black Star, you really gave us a scare..." Marbruce smiled wryly. "My head is in a mess now, and I don't even know what to do."

Han Xiao raised his eyebrows and teased, "Didn't you say you've seen big storms? Have you seen this one before?"

"Ahem, I think we should talk about how to break the closure of the Dark Side Universe and return to the real universe..."

The leader of the Void Spirit Religion's old face darkened, and he quickly changed the subject, not wanting to admit that he had been careless.

Han Xiao did not answer directly, but changed the subject and said slowly:

"I know that you still have some doubts in your hearts, thinking that these things are fabricated by me. Wait until you enter the Sanctuary and confirm that the information I said is correct, then we can talk about what to do next... By the way, let me remind you that reading the iteration messages in the Sanctuary requires permission. When you first enter, you can only know the basic situation, such as iteration, Great Reboot, and other information. As for the Dark Side iteration and cyclic reboot information, you can't see it for the time being. In other words, I only knew these things after I fully unlocked the permissions."

"Uh, so that's how it is..."

The three had not witnessed the effectiveness of the Sanctuary with their own eyes, so they could only obediently listen to Han Xiao's explanation. However, they believed most of it, because Black Star didn't need to lie to them about things that were easy to verify.

However, the three of Marbruce were still itching in their hearts. This feeling was like watching a suspense movie. They only saw the beginning, while Black Star knew the whole story but wouldn't tell them who the murderer was, making them extremely curious.

However, the three did have concerns and dared not completely believe what Han Xiao said. They could only feel at ease after entering the Sanctuary and taking a look.

"After a while, I will send you the way to enter the Sanctuary, and then synthesize three Sanctuary keys for you. You can go in by yourselves, so you won't say that I did something behind your backs."

Han Xiao waved his hand and said casually.

Only he could quickly generate Sanctuary keys. Even the three great civilizations, which were rich in resources, would need time to collect materials. Therefore, without his help, the three great civilizations could not enter and exit the Sanctuary frequently. This was also his current confidence in controlling the Sanctuary, and he did not mind letting the current three great civilizations enter the Sanctuary.

"That's the best way."

The three hurriedly nodded, like good babies.

"Alright, then you can digest the truth about the universe's iteration first. I won't disturb you. I'll send you the information later."

Han Xiao nodded and hung up the communication.

The remote projection disappeared, and the three of Marbruce looked at each other with different expressions.

"I didn't expect Black Star to bring such information... If what he said is true, then our arrangements for future development will have to be re-planned."

"That's right. If the situation is true, then it's meaningless for us to develop peacefully here. We must break through fate, achieve the wishes of our previous lives, and enter the so-called real universe."

"Don't say so much first, let's sort it out from the beginning..."

The three put their heads together and discussed intensely.

...

Super Power Sanctuary, leader's office.

Han Xiao's vision flashed, and he returned to the room. Complex emotions suddenly appeared in his eyes.

He pretended to be confident and calm in front of the three great civilizations, but in reality, when he learned these truths from the Sanctuary, he was also greatly shocked, but it also solved his doubts for many years.

In fact, Han Xiao had many speculations about his own secrets that he had not told the three great civilization leaders, such as the existence of the panel. In his opinion, there were three possibilities.

First, the panel was a special product formed when the real state of the iterative universe was transformed into the information state of the Dark Side Universe, just like a high-dimensional object descending to a low-dimensional object, it had special advantages, like a piece of paper being completely visible to humans, or the part of information that low-dimensional objects could not express.

The second possibility was an information mutation product.

The third guess was that the three great civilizations of the second Dark Side iteration projected the "information collection" of the Dark Side Universe into the real universe, and pulled the real state through "login", and the panel was a necessary medium to complete this step, a special "tractor" or "recorder". Therefore, it might have been specially made by the former three great civilizations to ensure that the real state could remain in the Dark Side Universe for a long time.

However, no matter which one it was, the panel was unique to the Dark Side Universe and could not enter the real universe. The evidence that made Han Xiao speculate on this point was that when he entered the Sanctuary, the panel would disappear... because the Sanctuary did not only exist in the Dark Side Universe, so the panel was invalid there.

As for his own "special" panel, Han Xiao also had some guesses.

In his opinion, this was either a life guarantee made by the three great civilizations of the third Dark Side iteration for the "information individual" who completely entered the Dark Side Universe in order to build a stable interference bridge, ensuring that he could live "stably" in the Dark Side Universe and reduce the probability of his death due to various accidents; or it was the result of normal panel information mutation after the Dark Side iteration.

Based on the various performances of the panel, Han Xiao was more inclined to the former. When the panel triggered a task, it would often reveal more information in the task introduction. Because the development trajectory of the Dark Side Universe was almost fixed, it was completely possible for the three great civilizations of the third Dark Side iteration to improve the panel to have this kind of "prophet"-like function... Of course, it could not be ruled out that his own panel had a hidden principle to monitor the entire Dark Side Universe.

In addition, when the players went online (the real state greatly interfered), he could enter the player forum through the panel and peep into the information exchange of a group of "real states". During the version update, the forum was also frozen for him. From this point of view, his special panel was indeed like an important medium and channel to communicate with the real state.

This made Han Xiao couldn't help but think of the two information threads he saw on the panel when he used the information state to obliterate his vision. One thread was connected to himself, and the other thread extended out infinitely. Now that he thought about it, the object represented by this end was probably the entire Dark Side Universe... This seemed to corroborate this idea.

On the other hand, Han Xiao also speculated on the principle of the time flow rate of the version update... In the mainstream scientific theory of the Star Sea, time is relative, not absolute. From this perspective, and based on the content of the Sanctuary message board, he felt that the time of the Dark Side Universe and the real universe were not related. There was only a difference in relative speed.

The real universe was the basis of the third iteration, and the Dark Side Universe must depend on its existence. However, the relative time flow rate of the Dark Side Universe was faster, and it was restarted again and again in a cycle. The two sides did not affect each other. However, when the players went online, causing information entanglement between the Dark Side Universe and the real universe, the time flow rates of the two sides were synchronized at a stable ratio, which was one to six... The reason behind this was that the real universe still occupied the dominant position, and the players whose "foundation" existed in the real universe would not be affected in reverse.

And when the players, a group of temporarily "logged in" real states, disappeared, the degree of information interference plummeted, so the time flow rate of the Dark Side Universe was decoupled from the real universe... The form of this guess was that the version update only took one or two days for the players, but many years had passed in the Star Sea world. Han Xiao felt that this possibility was not small.

He even suspected that the frequent information mutations in the Dark Side Universe since the second Dark Side iteration were likely to be the changes brought about by the introduction of the real state from the third Dark Side iteration... If the real universe and the Sanctuary were regarded as higher-dimensional existences, then the projected projections would be distorted, and "distortion" would occur, causing the information actualization device of the third Dark Side iteration to become the World Tree, and the control valve of the fourth Dark Side iteration to become the Pivotal Snake.

"In addition to this reason, perhaps the Dark Side Universe is also like the initial Association of Star Alliances dimension, only external information carriers can greatly change the development trajectory, bring new variables, and add accidents... Even if the Dark Side Universe is not a rigid cycle, perhaps it also needs such variables."

Han Xiao's eyes changed.

Although these many statements were all speculations that he had deduced based on the truth revealed by the Sanctuary message, he felt that the possibility was very high.

"Even if this is a long relay across iterations, every civilization must hope that they will be the last one. As long as there is a glimmer of hope, every civilization wants to continue. No one wants to be extinct. The initial three great civilizations did this, and it is understandable, but..."

Han Xiao shook his head, feeling complicated.

If all the inferences were correct, then he was equivalent to the hope of the entire Dark Side Universe...

But for him personally, this was a multiple-choice question.
