The Dream Tower, Tang Qi watched as the second Fool’s Ship automatically departed.

On the surface, it seemed that Tang Qi had let go of a precious divine artifact, taking a significant loss.

In reality, Tang Qi believed that he had gained tremendous benefits in a short time, as many doubts that had been lingering in his heart were answered.

The ship eventually disappeared into nothingness, and Tang Qi’s gaze shifted, landing on the lonely and shabby-looking first Fool’s Ship still floating in front of him.

In the blink of an eye, Tang Qi’s human form began to change.

Tentacles and dreamy eyeballs appeared with a swish, a smaller Dream Dominator Body emerged.

Like a bizarre octopus, it writhed and swam, quickly wrapping the Fool’s Ship tightly.

Tang Qi made a choice according to his "intuition," though on the surface, it seemed unreasonable.

The second Fool’s Ship appeared more splendid and powerful.

Perhaps?

The first Fool’s Ship Tang Qi obtained might not be as simple as it appeared.

After all, not long ago, Tang Qi had witnessed puppets like the poisonous snake and the King taking nonexistent objects like bird eggs and lice from the ship.

As Tang Qi explored, his mind surged with thoughts, digesting the secrets he had just learned.

"The Fool’s Ships are fluid, each one is a ’carrier.’ The parts, puppet organisms, or other things on them are not important; they can be dismantled and replaced. What truly matters is the ’Sage’s Will’ they carry."

"They seem to lack autonomy, but in fact, they are truly free."

"Being recognized by the Sage’s Will means briefly possessing two Fool’s Ships, marking one as a ’Wise Man Candidate.’

"Is this like a special selection mechanism to filter out kindred spirits?"

"The Sage’s Will seems far more terrifying than ’Destiny,’ as even the Supreme Divinity cannot intervene."

"So, the fact that I could seize the Fool’s Ship from the demigod Gafaro, and receive an invitation from the Lust Goddess Eve, further to barter with the Ancient Bos Aiken for a second Fool’s Ship... could all of this be orchestrated by the Sage’s Will?"

As Tang Qi speculated, he didn’t feel much horror in his heart.

If it were any other Supreme Divinity showing signs of controlling Tang Qi.

Then Tang Qi would have already plunged into panic and anger, immediately planning a counterattack to escape.

But after conversing with the ’Mad Clown,’ Tang Qi sensed a trace of such a sign, yet felt no anger.

Perhaps it was because of the answers to those previous questions.

Tang Qi asked the Clown where the sages had gone and what they were exploring.

The Clown answered: The sages went into the darkness, searching for some answer or lifeline.

Inexplicably, a sense of resonance stirred deep within Tang Qi’s soul.

"Is this what they call shared aspirations? But it seems I’m still kept in the dark, not knowing any secrets?"

"Was that Merciless Sage the one rejected by the sages?"

"What is the real connection between the Second Endless and the boundless mystery?"

"Moreover, how does one become a true Sage?"

"The answer likely has little to do with status combat power, though the Mad Clown did not reveal any Prophet Sage’s information, I am certain at least one of them is a member of the Wise Man Group."

"Old Man Huang!"

"The sage who created such a mad spell as the Star Eater God Curse and authored the Secret Scripture of Immortality, ostensibly missing under mysterious circumstances after offending the Sovereign."

"Now it seems, he likely orchestrated a fake death to escape, joining the Wise Man Group to venture into the darkness, exploring answers and a lifeline."

...

Knowing some answers, yet more questions arose.

Others might have already been infuriated.

But Tang Qi, nevertheless, felt excitement.

Tang Qi had a strong desire for knowledge and curiosity.

These so-called "secrets" made Tang Qi itch with anticipation.

"This is the true splendor that boundless mystery should have. Without these things, perhaps I would also become a Fallen Sovereign."

"Sally is busy, and Rose is also attempting Ascension. If I were idle, I might end up mingling with Eve and them, with a concerning outcome."

Quietly mocking himself, Tang Qi’s exploration stopped.

Clearly, it was to no avail.

"According to the Clown, the Fool’s Ship itself is not that important."

"This wooden ship, bizarre and decrepit, shabby and simple, its All-Knowing Insight only deducing it was created during the Dark Era, and not the first Fool’s Ship, by a sage philosopher from early Dark Era."

"But since ’All-Knowing’ is equally ineffective on the Sage’s Will, the truth of this information is questionable."

"The exterior is likely false, as is the information; only the Sage’s Will on board is real."

"So, my intuition is targeting... the Sage’s Will?"

Tang Qi seemed to catch on to a vital point, his eyes shining.

Meanwhile, another inspiration emerged in his mind.

With a flickering thought, he saw Radiance surge within the Tower, and another Divine Artifact being summoned.

Infinite Secret Box!

Among all the divine artifacts Tang Qi had acquired, it was the most mysterious and powerful.

As long as one could afford the price, the Secret Box seemed capable of yielding anything.

The previously fallen ’Pandora Goddess,’ who was but an ordinary mortal long ago, ascended to godhood by making offerings with the Secret Box, despite having no talent.

Tang Qi also relied on the Secret Box, gaining great benefits several times.

Including the divine artifact to save the "Melter," the extremely mysterious Primordial Fire.

If it were in the hands of other Divines, the Secret Box wouldn’t be that useful, as each time a sacrificial exchange is made, the cost for the user is too enormous.

For instance, Pandora used the Secret Box multiple times; although she became a god, she lost all loved ones and fell completely.

But Tang Qi is different. As long as the Infinite Secret Box is on the "Fool’s Ship," the cost of each sacrificial exchange proposed by Tang Qi gets reduced to some extent. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Evidently, there is some connection between the Secret Box and the Fool’s Ship, or rather the Wise Man’s Will on the ship.

Following familiar rules, Tang Qi directly controlled the magnetic powder like flying insects, brewing to make his first request.

Tang Qi didn’t intend to directly ask who the Initial Prophet was; he already had some idea.

That one is the Supreme Divinity.

Creator of the first Fool’s Ship and mentor of the Wise Men and Prophets.

Even older than Batum, respected by the Ancient Observer, Mysterious Monarch, and other powerful existences.

No need to think that if Tang Qi directly inquires about the "First Prophet."

The Secret Box’s answer would probably be: out of range.

Especially since Tang Qi has an inexplicable suspicion that the creator of the Infinite Secret Box might be the Initial Prophet?

Tang Qi pondered for half a second, eventually making a roundabout request:

"I need to know if the Wise Man’s Will on this Fool’s Ship belongs to the early Philosopher of the Dark Era?"

Following familiar movements, a response is about to appear.

Under Tang Qi’s slightly nervous gaze, the Secret Box gave this reply:

"A Sage’s Order!"

"Boom"

Upon seeing the reply, Tang Qi’s mind buzzed momentarily.

He almost immediately reacted, confirming his previous suspicion.

"If the Wise Man’s Will on this Fool’s Ship really belongs to the early Philosopher of the Dark Era, the Infinite Secret Box wouldn’t give an exchange condition that can’t be fulfilled."

"According to what the Clown said, all the Sages went exploring in the darkness; I can’t command a Sage to help me, unless I... become a Sage?"

"So, is this a promise?"

"Not only about the true Wise Man’s Will on this ship but also other secrets; as long as I become a Sage, all questions will be answered."

Tang Qi’s mind was filled with turbulent thoughts, indirectly affirming his intuition.

He chose this simple Fool’s Ship indeed because of the Sage’s Will on it, and this Sage’s Will likely belongs to a Supreme Divinity, the Initial Prophet?

Tang Qi got this ship long ago, but only now, as he became the Dream Master, did he learn some secrets about it.

This made Tang Qi think of another rule in the boundless mystery:

"When a life reaches a certain level, their name, their superficial information, will gradually be known by higher status and highly related existences."

"At the same time, they will inexplicably form connections with those existences and have many extraordinary encounters."

"Among those observers, some have goodwill, and naturally some have malice."

"Has it started now? Am I about to touch a more secret world...?"

With the ending of this thought, Tang Qi seemed temporarily satisfied.

He didn’t continue lingering, waved a tentacle, and put away both the "Fool’s Ship" and the "Infinite Secret Box."

Then, Tang Qi officially faced the Dream Kingdom.

The next moment, a divine oracle simultaneously echoed in the depths of the minds of all Tang Qi’s Subordinate Gods, Clans, and believers:

"The Fool’s Ship, the great dream needs the Fool’s Ship."

The peaceful and beautiful Dream Divine System shone because of this oracle.

His Subordinate Gods, Clans, and the rapidly expanding number of believers began to act.

This is the first divine oracle from the "Great Sovereign," no followers would slacken.

Tang Qi might not be accustomed, but the reality is, at this moment, the Dream Divine System’s power has far surpassed its initial creation.

Setting aside the rapidly growing Clans and believers due to the War of Destiny and the dream itself.

Subordinate God!

Speaking only of the number of Tang Qi’s Subordinate Gods, it has exceeded imagination.

For the time being, only camps like the Earth God System, Natural God System, and Insect Race Divine System, which are inherently numerous in Subordinate Gods, can surpass.

Systems like the Sky and Thunder God System are simply not opponents.

Constantly emerging New Gods who follow Tang Qi can even independently derive small divine systems.

Such as the Dream Fairy Tale System composed of Diana, Amanda, and White Merlin.

Or the Death System led by the Catastrophe Monarch.

Or the Mechanical Divine System led by the Mechanical Son Vieraphis.

And the Dragon Clan Divine System led by Dragon Queen Olga Nikolaevna.

As well as the Bizarre System composed of strange divine beings like the Blank Worm.

...

How many Subordinate Gods are in the Dream Divine System, how strong they are, and what powers they possess, if Tang Qi doesn’t perceive them, it remains a mystery to him.

But one thing is very certain, the Dream Divine System has become an undeniably significant member among the many camps in the boundless mystery.
