Chapter 28 If Life Is Like Fireworks
Qi An thought of Xu Zhuoxing.
When she thought of him, the image of Xu Zhuoxing before his death naturally came to mind.
Xu Zhuoxing is a newly formed cloud of consciousness in the void, just like a brand new and dazzling nebula in the present universe!
But an even larger "nebula" drifted over and captured Xu Zhuoxing.
Without any chance to fight back, Xu Zhuoxing, like a firework in the cold universe, flashed and disappeared.
Qi An even knew that he had suppressed his previous thoughts, and he was thinking, "So that's how it is..."
Fortunately, He cannot descend directly to the present world.
Both mother and daughter are very clever; my fate will surely serve as a warning to them.
So, I guess I died a worthy death...
If Xu Zhuoxing still had a human form, his expression at that moment would definitely be a raised eyebrow followed by a lowered head and a wry smile.
His smile seemed carefree, but the curve of his lips actually carried a hint of bitterness.
More than 20 years of hard work have come to nothing...
But Xu Zhuoxing's final thought was: "'Life always finds a way.' Did I ever say that to Xiao An?"
Life always finds a way.
Qi An didn't know if she had found a way out, but Uncle Xu had laid a solid foundation for her in the first step, so she had at least found a possibility to fight to the death!
The old god drifted over to Qi An.
Qi An felt like he was a spaceship that had accidentally entered the most dangerous vortex zone at the center of the universe, and was being captured by a huge black hole and constantly being pulled toward that place!
When Xu Zhuoxing was captured by this "gravity", he had no ability to resist.
But Qi An seemed to possess a faster-than-light engine and had activated it, so he did not fall and was even flying in the opposite direction!
Although the size comparison between Qi'an and the Old God is like that of a green walnut and a walnut tree, or a small nut and a brown bear.
But compared to Xu Zhuoxing, Qi An was an absurdly large nut, requiring a "brown bear" to open its jaws wide to bite and swallow her whole.
Because of Qi An, the Qi An of today is resonating with 70,000 people!
The consciousness possessed by all intelligent races in the present universe is essentially the same thing as the existence of "gods".
Devouring those consciousnesses will directly strengthen the gods.
However, for someone like Qi An, possessing a physical body in the present world and directly connecting with the consciousness of intelligent races through that body is also a means of strengthening oneself.
Just like a computer, in addition to its own hard drive, it also has many external hard drives, making its overall storage capacity very powerful!
Qi An was far more powerful than Xu Zhuoxing when he first became a god, so if she wanted to, she could easily retrieve the fragments of Xu Zhuoxing's thoughts that remained in the void before his death, fragments that had not yet been completely annihilated.
Therefore, when the Old God devoured Xu Zhuoxing, he didn't move at all; he simply sucked Xu Zhuoxing in and swallowed him whole.
But He wanted to devour Qi An, and while naturally generating "attraction," He also actively drifted toward Qi An.
The Old Gods were not surprised that Qi An was stronger than Xu Zhuoxing.
The Black Sun, which Xu Zhuoxing transformed into, is a real tentacle of His in the present universe, at least in the star system where Blue Star is located.
What Black Sun knows, the Old Gods know as well.
Black Sun grew stronger and stronger during the battle at North Base 1, seemingly without limit, because the Old Gods were constantly providing it with power!
Blue Star is a grain of sand that cannot be found on a world map, but the gaze of the Old Gods once lingered on Blue Star.
He is strengthening the Black Sun; He anticipates devouring all humans, including Qi'an!
"Even insignificant humans have their special qualities, right?" Qi An pondered these thoughts amidst the struggle between attraction and escape.
There was no reply. Given Qi An's level, if the Old God didn't take the initiative to communicate with her, she simply couldn't pick up any fragments of the Old God's thoughts.
But Qi An knew the answer to that question.
"Among humans, there are those with natural spiritual power. Humans are a race with spiritual power, or 'divine power' or 'psychic energy'!"
Their civilization is not yet strong, and they haven't even left their own star system, but their potential is limitless!
Their consciousness is nutritious and delicious to you!
My Uncle Xu is even more like a 'thousand-year-old immortal fruit,' a rare and nourishing delicacy!
The divine realm is absolutely separated from the mortal universe. You do not have a physical body in the mortal world; you are a pure consciousness.
If you don't rely on vague information memes, but instead reach directly into the real world, you will face many obstacles and have to pay a heavy price.
But you'd rather pay the price to directly supply power to Black Sun.
You made it stop me...
Qi An's thoughts were constantly flashing. This beautiful, but tiny nebula was also struggling desperately to break free from the gravitational pull of the old gods.
She retreated desperately!
But the distance between her and the old gods is inevitably closing.
Just as the ancient god, that colossal black hole-like being, was about to capture Qi An, it spoke to her:
"Stop you? Do you need to? Are you even worthy?"
Qi An instantly understood the meaning of the Old God's words.
During the battle at Base North 1, Hei Yang frantically attacked the resonance devices, not to prevent Qi An from successfully resonating with 70,000 humans, nor to prevent her from strengthening those 70,000 people through pollution, and then strengthening herself in return.
The Black Sun's attacks on her and the equipment were simply putting immense pressure on her, trying to get her to "go to heaven" sooner and be devoured by Him!
Qi An's myriad thoughts raced like a stream of light, and suddenly he understood the origin of the specimen discovered from the lunar soil that brought all the disasters—YR-BR-07.
She had suspected it before, and now she confirmed the accuracy of that suspicion.
That specimen was left behind by another civilization in the present universe.
That was ten million years ago, before humans separated from apes. There was life on Earth, but it was a primitive ecosystem.
That civilization had long possessed the ability to travel through space, yet it was still corrupted by the information memes of the Old Gods.
The YR-BR-07 mineral is perfectly symmetrical, with an extremely dense molecular arrangement. When its internal elemental spectrum is unfolded in two dimensions, it resembles an image of an ancient god.
That is an image formed based on the senses of that civilization and race, which may confuse human perception, but does not prevent it from being corrupted by it.
This is a religious artwork of that polluted race, and also their means of spreading pollution!
Although Earth was in a primitive state at that time, it held great promise for the evolution of intelligent races.
One day, the intelligent races on Earth will have the ability to unfold that map and explore the moon.
It was a trap dug millions of years ago, waiting to teach humanity the first lesson about the dangers of the universe!
So, how long did the Old Gods survive?
He had the ability to control an advanced civilization millions of years ago.
Qi Anlian has a mere 70,000 humans. What are they compared to Him?
Is it a slightly larger ant? Or is it a "ten-thousand-year-old immortal fruit," or an even rarer and more precious tonic?
Black Sun's frenzied attacks were meant to hasten her arrival at the Old Gods' table!
Qi An couldn't run anymore; she had been captured by the Old God.
Her torrent of thoughts began to slow; she was being assimilated by the Old Gods!
If Qi An is assimilated, devoured, or even completely annihilated, her body will also turn into a black sun, an even larger black sun.
Then humanity has no other fate but extinction.
The concept of "self" barely exists on Earth. Even relatively intelligent creatures, such as orcas, will be polluted, and life on Earth will completely lose its evolutionary potential!
The dark "Greater Nebula" caught up with the bright "Lesser Nebula," but the "Greater Nebula's" swirling, star-like trend paused slightly.
In the present world, in an ordinary shelter N-046 at Base North 1, a middle-aged man, who was buried in the crowd and had nothing outstanding about him in terms of appearance, enhancement value, or job position in the base, was also stunned.
Because he had just crushed a black sun the size of his palm!
He crushed him to death! He squeezed Hei Yang like he was squeezing a mouse, his hands covered in disgusting flesh and blood, but he really did crush him to death!
The shattered pieces of black sun flesh lay motionless on the ground.
The man stood there for a moment, his hands stained with green blood.
He showed no signs of any abnormality!
This is not an isolated case. In other shelters and various outposts on the ground, soldiers and civilians have touched Black Sun with their bare hands, and even killed Black Sun with their bare hands!
Tan Fu's voice almost roared in the command center: "[We have observed that the morale and combat effectiveness of the base's military and civilians have collectively doubled!]"
This phenomenon occurred without warning, but the only possible explanation is that, An'an, our gods have once again descended upon us with pollution, and bestowed upon us power!
Tan Fu's voice not only rang out in the command center, but also in all the undamaged broadcasting equipment.
It was this roar that alerted the people at Base North 1 and made them realize the changes happening to their own bodies.
It was too fast. Before Qi An became a god, he sang to several people face-to-face, which caused a slight mutation in their subcutaneous cells.
Now, before even a second of normal time has passed, Qi An has raised the average mental enhancement value of the 70,000 people who resonated with her to 30!
Her main body and her clone remained motionless, but her pheromones had already spread out silently, covering the entire base and contaminating millions of people in the North 1 Base!
The Black Suns, who were once so powerful that they could destroy the world, suddenly became utterly vulnerable in the face of humanity!
Tan Fu's roar contained a suppressed excitement, and an uncontrollable tension.
The bunker had two layers and contained a large number of reconnaissance robots. Tan Fu stared at Qi An's body from all angles, trying to guess Qi An's battle situation in the Divine Realm!
