Su Yu ascended from the mine shaft through layers of pseudo-human spaces, infiltrating systems to learn they mine super-quality for the enigmatic Super-quality Council above. He questioned if surviving humans form the civilization's core, reflecting on his own identity to safeguard his Profession Panel amid cosmic hierarchies. Disguised in super-quality crystals, he progressed from planetary realms to a full universe teeming with advanced pseudo-humans and super-quality Transcendents.

Right now, Su Yu floated within the cosmic vacuum.

Nearby hovered an enormous stockpile of super-quality crystals, freshly delivered from the "lower layer."

This "lower layer" consisted of a colossal pseudo-human empire spanning a diameter of ten billion light-years.

Every single moment, that empire extracted innumerable super-quality crystals from the "lower layer."

Truth be told, the empire in the lower layer possessed an even greater population than the earlier Primordial Universe Human Empire.

Were it not for the inherent defects in those pseudo-humans, Su Yu might have truly regarded them as authentic humans, viewing their empire as a legitimate one and the origin of "High-dimensional Destiny."

Nevertheless, following careful scrutiny, Su Yu determined they remained pseudo-humans, far from genuine humans.

The pseudo-humans featured internal compositions that appeared highly realistic, virtually identical to true humans, complete with cells and diverse organs.

Yet, upon closer inspection, their physiological systems functioned in total chaos.

For instance, a human heart serves to pump blood throughout the body.

Certain pseudo-humans repurpose it for digestion, forcing food through blood vessels to circulate everywhere...

They bypass mouths for eating, relying instead on their eyes...

These represent merely some pseudo-humans; others exhibit distinct oddities, like reasoning via large intestines or processing food with brains...

All manner of freakish anomalies set them utterly apart from ordinary humans.

By all reason, such disordered physiology should have caused their extinction ages ago.

Since they fundamentally consist of super-quality, they endure without proper structures, enabling such wild antics.

Witnessing trillions of pseudo-humans mimicking humanity, donning human forms while performing bizarre acts, left Su Yu utterly dumbfounded.

He struggled to fathom the motives of the hidden "super-quality" civilization orchestrating this.

Surely, that super-quality civilization possessed the means to craft true humans.

Should these pseudo-humans employ their organs and forms correctly, Su Yu would struggle to differentiate them from real humans.

Still, the backstage creators appeared to intentionally implant these imperfections, barring them from true humanity.

In the end, after further examination, Su Yu resolved to proceed "upwards." He figured this ascent would reveal the authentic super-quality civilization.

Prior to ascending, though, Su Yu devoured vast quantities of super-quality, pushing his "super-quality" powers to their utmost limit.

The ten billion light-year diameter pseudo-human empire harbored an inconceivable volume of super-quality.

This ten billion light-year empire itself stood constructed upon super-quality, its planets and river systems formed via "super-quality conversion."

Heaven knows how many lower-dimensional civilizations perished to amass such wealth.

This proved highly advantageous for Su Yu, who had concealed himself within the empire for a hundred years, covertly siphoning massive super-quality crystals.

In Su Yu's "super-quality" profession, super-quality serves as experience points.

After devouring this super-quality, Su Yu's super-quality profession had climbed to level 999.

The volume of super-quality under his command now matched a full river system.

Armed with this might, Su Yu brimmed with assurance to press "upwards."

Su Yu's "river system level" operated within this super-macro-dimensional river system.

Were it the spacetime of the primordial universe, the super-quality Su Yu wielded could spawn endless universes with a mere whim.

Yet within the super-macro dimension, it sufficed merely to forge a single river system.

By now, Su Yu had fully rebuilt the primordial universe via super-quality conversion, stowing it in his Manifestation Space for portability.

Via "spiritual ability overlimit," his spiritual faculties matched the super-quality power surge perfectly, elevating all his super-macro spacetime capabilities to river system level—ample against any foes.

Furthermore, erecting the primordial universe demanded negligible super-quality from Su Yu, virtually cost-free.

After all, the primordial universe's spacetime dimension paled vastly beside Su Yu's current stature.

Su Yu now stood at strength's zenith, yet his super-quality profession lacked max level.

Just one more level remained.

Su Yu reckoned absorbing the entire super-quality hoard of the ten billion light-year pseudo-human empire could max it out.

But doing so would undoubtedly alert the pseudo-human empire's supreme powerhouses.

Odd as those pseudo-humans were, formidable figures existed among them.

Su Yu tested the waters briefly before opting to abstain.

Ascending to higher layers promised abundant super-quality for absorption, sparing any direct confrontation with these pseudo-humans.

Hence, Su Yu exploited another "hand-over" chance to rise further, ultimately entering a cosmic starry expanse.

Su Yu perceived this starry sky as virtually boundless, wholly formed from super-quality.

Thus, he deduced this must be the fabled "super-quality" civilization.

However...

"Why does it seem like there’s no life at all?"

Somewhat baffled, Su Yu scanned the surrounding cosmic vacuum.

Past ascents always deposited him amid pseudo-human cities or planets. Super-quality crystals rank as vital assets, demanding pseudo-human oversight and utilization.

This time, however, the lower ten billion light-year empire delivered river system-scale super-quality crystals, abandoned in cosmic vacuum without pseudo-humans or true humans to claim them.

Su Yu waited patiently for ages, yet nothing stirred.

His spirit swept the starry sky in search, detecting zero life traces.

"What’s this all about?"

Gazing at the river system-equivalent super-quality crystals, Su Yu absorbed them wholly with a single thought.

No one to claim them? He'd take charge himself.

Devouring these river system-scale super-quality crystals boosted Su Yu's profession experience slightly, yet fell short of the ultimate level.

Next, Su Yu darted across the starry sky, probing everywhere.

He refused to accept this expanse held absolutely nothing—no life whatsoever.

The deeper Su Yu delved, the more distrustful he grew.

For this starry sky bore striking resemblance to the primordial universe!

No! Identical, practically!

A mental summons brought forth the primordial universe's star chart for comparison with the vista ahead.

Nearly indistinguishable!

The sole variance... utter absence of life!

Precisely—no life, not even pseudo-humans.

Su Yu had crossed tens of thousands of river systems, life signs nowhere!

This vaunted super-quality civilization, employing every trick, endlessly extracted and delivered super-quality crystals.

Only to culminate in such a barren starry void?

Su Yu's deeper searches heightened his wariness.

The oddity screamed hidden peril.

After probing additional river systems, he charted course to a known star system.

There lay... the Human Empire's birthplace, the Zhendan Star System!
