Even if Tony Stark witnessed the entire battle and inherited the mantle of the Ancient One, gaining some understanding of higher levels of knowledge... he could only roughly estimate the terrifying extent of its impact, but could not accurately estimate the profound consequences that would have if the two were truly unchecked...
"While what you're saying is certainly terrifying, those things are completely beyond my comprehension." Tokisaki Kurumi chuckled, pointing to the clock in her pupils. "But things like cosmic changes and stellar evolution! These eyes can still see them."
“That’s normal,” Emperor Qing said calmly. “It’s like how Aizen only realized the terror of the Ultraman world after he became stronger…”
"No, no, no, you're wrong," Aizen retorted with a smile, but there was something strange in the depths of his eyes, and his words were complicated. "I should say that, having become stronger... I've become even less able to figure out the bottom of the Ultraman world."
After a brief silence, Bruce Wayne's expression became enigmatic. He suddenly seemed to realize something, his gaze flickering as he stared at Daigo Madoka and Gen Otori.
"...Mr. Bruce, what is this all about? Wait, could it be..." Feng Yuan suddenly realized something, and his expression turned strange.
If he remembered correctly, this Batman seemed to have a similar quirk to Tony Stark: a fondness for researching anti-armor.
Feng Yuan swallowed hard. Batman's eyes right now… could he be planning to go back and develop an anti-Leo armor, an anti-Tiga armor?
Bruce Wayne, with his profound knowledge of psychology, instantly saw through Feng Yuan's thoughts. After thinking for a moment, he realized that it was not a good thing for the misunderstanding to continue, so he immediately explained in a low voice, "No, at most I just wanted to study... Ultraman's light power, after all, this energy seems to be equivalent to a kind of universal new energy."
"Of course, even in the future, if you two are truly willing to cooperate with me... and I do develop some kind of armor because of you two... it will be named Tiga Armor or Leo Armor. It won't have that 'anti' prefix added!"
After a brief pause, Bruce Wayne said meaningfully, "After all, we are all members of the council, and we cannot harm each other... I will not add the word 'anti' to the armor, no matter who created it."
Tony Stark: "???"
He felt that Bruce Wayne was targeting him!
After a moment of silence, Feng Yuan let out a long sigh, "You're right."
Su Han glanced at the group of people in front of him, then suddenly shook his head. With a thought, his figure vanished from the misty space.
A brief silence fell over the Hall of Mist. Aizen stared at the empty bronze throne, his eyes flickering with uncertainty.
“Yog, he’s truly a monster beyond imagination.” Rukia Kuchiki suddenly spoke, her voice serious. “We all know Thanos’s original power…”
"And I feel that Thanos after sacrificing Yog was comparable in strength to Thanos after collecting all the Infinity Stones."
“No, no, no,” Tony Stark said with amusement, “The Thanos of the original timeline, even if he collected all the Infinity Stones, could not use their power at will… but the Thanos just now, he had no restrictions on using his power.”
"Of course, in terms of absolute raw power... Thanos after sacrificing to the evil god is probably inferior to Thanos with all the Infinity Stones. After all, if their strength and methods were equal, he could just snap his fingers... why would he need to search the world for the Infinity Stones?"
“I don’t think so.” Sawada Tsunayoshi glanced at Tony Stark a few times before speaking calmly, “Do you remember the image the Chairman projected before the mission began?”
"Thanos had many ways to kill half of all life... he simply chose the simplest method..."
Parliament fell silent once again.
After a long while, Gu Xun'er sighed with a complicated expression, "Thanos... is really strong, and... Number Ten also has Yog. He is truly terrifying."
Yog only gifted Thanos a portion of his knowledge, yet Thanos nearly rivaled Yog's own power when he controlled all the Infinity Stones... It's hard to imagine just how powerful Yog's true form must be...
"Before such a great being, perhaps the universe is like a soap bubble we blow... easily crushed with a gentle touch?" Tang Hao crossed his arms, his expression somewhat grave. "The world is becoming increasingly dangerous..."
"I'm suddenly a little envious of my child! Maybe it's because they don't know anything that they can live an easy life?" Tang Hao rubbed his fingers against the armrest.
He had begun to ponder how terrifying it would be if his world also had someone who had sacrificed Yog. Even if that person only obtained one-tenth of Thanos's power, they could still easily destroy the Douluo Continent.
Even the destruction of the divine realm... was a matter of course in Tang Hao's eyes...
Although Tang Hao knew that if this really happened, the council members would definitely come to his aid... what if the world was destroyed before he could ask the council for help? What would he do then?
Should he be asked to beg the Speaker to reshape the universe he inhabits? Tang Hao didn't doubt that the Speaker possessed such power, but... would the Speaker really grant his request?
He was very skeptical of this.
"Don't overthink it," the Sword Immortal said in a low voice, his gaze somewhat profound. "Yog... may not have meant any harm. Just as the Council Chairman said at the beginning, He simply gave you knowledge! Thanos's previous actions were essentially an exchange as well."
“Not all Old Gods are the same… Take Number Ten, for example.” The Drunken Sword Immortal pointed to the empty seat at Number Ten and said earnestly, “Number Ten should also be one of the Old Gods, but His personality is gentle, which is obviously different from those Old Gods who want to destroy the world…”
“Indeed,” Aizen’s voice remained as calm as ever, “or, ultimately… even if the Great Old Ones enjoy destroying worlds, I think that only a small fraction of them do…”
“You can’t conclude that all the Great Old Ones enjoy destroying the world based on a few isolated cases… That’s very irresponsible.”

"You're right," Madara Uchiha nodded slightly, then sneered, "But then again, your fear of Yog continuing to bestow knowledge upon other members of your world is meaningless... People with the same unwavering spirit as Thanos are few and far between."
"The most likely outcome for an ordinary person to gain access to the knowledge bestowed by the ancient gods is complete madness..."
"Mr. Madara, what you said makes a lot of sense." Tang Hao had to admit that the truth was very likely what Uchiha Madara said, and he had simply been overthinking things before.
"Let's talk about something more cheerful," the Drunken Sword Immortal took a deep breath, his expression showing a hint of excitement. "Speaking of which, while observing the evolution of the sun and stars just now, I comprehended a new sword technique. I plan to name it the True Sun Sword!"
He turned to the famous swordsman in the council and extended an invitation, "Mr. Song Que, would you be interested in a duel with me?"
Feeling the burning gaze of the Drunken Sword Immortal, Song Que remained silent for a moment before coldly speaking, "You should go find Master Zhang Sanfeng. My strength is far inferior to yours!"
“…Alright.” The Sword Immortal’s brow twitched, he thought for a moment, smacked his lips, and didn’t say anything more.
Song Que looked at Ying Zheng, his voice sincere, "Your Majesty, my previous thoughts remain unchanged..."
Ying Zheng didn't reply, but simply stared at Song Que silently, waiting for him to speak again.
"It is what you said before, that you fully support the Lingnan region where my Song Clan is located to complete industrialization. Then, I will use this to gain merit and offer sacrifices to heaven... Finally, I implore the Speaker of the Council to take action and let the Speaker of the Council unite our two worlds together, so that you can unify the world I live in."
"...Why are you doing this to yourself?" Ying Zheng sighed softly.
If Song Que were to industrialize his clan and unify the country, it would be an easy task... After all, the Song clan already possessed the resources to contend for the throne...
