Everyone's intelligence on Ali halted at the level before Transcendent, because in the game's setting, if the first version of Ali broke through to Transcendence, it would mean total annihilation for the players!
In reality, the first version of Ali never had any opportunity to become Transcendent, so many people couldn't realize what kind of abilities this monster would have once it reached that stage.
Subconsciously, people tend to think her abilities remain the same as before, able to alter memories beyond Transcendent level. To them, this ability was already defying the heaven's will, anything more... would be too grotesque.
This was actually a point once discussed by the original creators with Pu Yunchuan.
At this moment, Chen Qing was en route to Northern Wasteland, his mind filled with some recollections from Pu Yunchuan's memories.
