We... have come in!

No one knew how much time had passed when the first scientist, trembling, lowered his hand—but the world had already changed.

All the tremors, alarms, and red light vanished in an instant.

In their place came an indescribable sense of clarity and lucidity.

That scientist lowered his head and looked at his own hand.

He saw not only the skin, but also the blood vessels and bones beneath,

He even saw, inside each cell nucleus, the DNA double helix slowly rotating.

And even smaller microscopic worlds.

In his field of vision, three‑dimensional matter held no secrets.

They were no longer impassable walls, but had become a transparent box one could freely pass through.

"Success…… we really…… succeeded……"

After a brief silence, a tsunami of cheers mixed with countless tears of joy erupted, blowing up the entire control hall.

Countless scientists embraced and wept, having devoted their lives to this unattainable dream,

and now they finally witnessed its fulfillment with their own eyes.

At the main console, Qin Zheng and the others exchanged smiles.

Qin Hao's figure appeared silently before them.

He did not go to see his own child, but first walked over to the senior scientists such as Qian Bowen and bowed deeply to them.

"You've worked hard, everyone."

Those four simple words made every scientist present break down in tears.

This was acknowledgment from the strongest civilization.

"Dad!"

Qin An regained a bit of spirit, jumped up to claim credit, and asked, "How was it? Did we fight that battle pretty well?"

Only then did Qin Hao turn around, looking at those five exhausted yet excited children; the pride in his eyes could no longer be concealed.

For these seven hundred years, he had suppressed countless urges to cheat, just to see this scene today.

A civilization that no longer needed his protection, capable of piercing this sky on its own.

"Well done."

Qin Hao heaved a heavy pat on Qin Zheng's shoulder and said, "From today on, you are graduated."

He turned his head, his gaze sweeping over everyone in the hall,

His voice reverberated through four‑dimensional space, reaching deep into the consciousness of every descendant of Yan and Huang.

"From this moment on, the first step toward ascending to a seventh‑level civilization has been taken!"

"We are no mere passersby in the universe; we are the authors of its rules!"

Qin Hao's gaze pierced the dimensions, looking beyond the Sea of Tranquility to the vaster unknown starry sky.

"Issue my orders!"

"The entire civilization will enter a one‑month fourth‑dimensional adaptation period, after which the second phase will be launched."

"Create dimensional worlds and micro‑cosmoses."
