Chapter 417 Chaos Creation
What appeared before Yu Cang's eyes was a strange chimera.
Yu Cang has been to Primal Chaos quite a few times and has seen many strange-looking souls. However, no matter how strange those souls are, they can still be seen as living beings.
But this guy in front of me...well, at least he's not a carbon-based life form.
In terms of size, it is very similar to the soul card "Individual Reaction Armor" that Yu Cang once made. If compared with Yu Cang's appearance in the chaos, it is probably a two-meter-five humanoid mecha.
Yu Cang looks very similar... because the details are so similar, it seems as if it was made based on the individual reactive armor.
Logically speaking, Chaos and the Mechanical Clan have nothing in common, and their own individual reactive armor is not something that is particularly impressive, so how could they find something similar in Chaos?
And... it would be fine if they were just a little bit similar, but why is there a gun barrel that looks very much like Lei Tie's roar following behind your mecha!
It's a clear copy, right?
Yu Cang was very skeptical if this appearance was just a coincidence.
So, he looked towards Ye Ke and asked, "This soul... could it be related to me?"
“…I guess so.”
"What do you mean?" Yu Cang looked confused.
"This soul...or maybe it can't be called a soul, it should be called..." Ye Lai fell into thought, but did not speak for a long time.
At this time, Ran Zhi who was standing by suddenly said, "It should be called Chaos Creation."
Ye Lan glanced at Ran Zhi, then nodded and said, "The Xu Shu Palace should know the most about this."
Yu Cang then also cast his gaze: "So, what is this?"
Ran Zhi explained: "Creatures of chaos... you can simply understand it as souls born directly from chaos."
"Oh?" Yu Cang's expression changed slightly.
As far as he knew, chaos was empty and there was no life in it. Whether it was the chaotic clouds filling the surroundings or the souls in the clouds... they were all transformed into chaos after the destruction of various worlds, big and small, and the existence in them was dispersed into the chaos.
Energy and matter shattered and mixed into rich clouds, while the lives that survived by chance turned into wandering souls.
But from what Ran Zhi said, the creatures of Chaos are actually "locals" who were born and raised in Chaos?
Ran Zhi nodded. "Yes, they are the 'natives'... The Chaos Mist is, after all, extremely rich, practically encompassing everything. Theoretically, it could potentially nurture life. However, these 'natives' are very special. Their minds are generally very dull, or even nonexistent."
Yu Cang showed a look of understanding.
Reasonable.
If this chaotic mist could be brought to the human world, it would definitely be a mythical material, but it is useless and cannot be obtained.
It's understandable that this kind of thing can give birth to life.
This is just stupid thinking...
"You keep scolding me."
A voice suddenly came from the side.
Yu Cang blinked.
Ran Zhi looked confused.
Ye Lai and Feng didn't seem to react immediately to where the sound came from.
After a long delay, they all suddenly turned around and looked at the "native".
Ran Zhi said tentatively: "Just now it was..."
The eyes of the indigenous mecha man flashed red: "If you curse again!"
"Hiss..." Ran Zhi took a breath of cold air.
Yu Cang laughed: "Ran Zhi... Look, I'm not stupid, you're not slandering me."
Good job.
He didn't expect the mecha man to suddenly speak.
Indeed, when he first followed Ye Lai here, he saw Feng and Ran Zhi guarding the mecha. The mecha said nothing, reacted flatly, had an intelligent look in his eyes, and looked like he had no intention of communicating at all... Coupled with his appearance that did not look like a living person, he really felt that this guy might not have much communication ability.
Moreover, the "expert" Ran Zhi also explained the whole story in front of others very naturally. He assumed that the mecha man might not understand what they were saying.
After all this time, you, the expert, are not professional at all.
"My, my." Ran Zhi apologized quickly, and then said with a hint of disbelief, "Can you communicate with us?"
"nonsense."
"Fuck, why didn't you say anything just now? I've been chatting with you for quite some time."
"..." The indigenous mecha man looked at Feng and Ye Lai with a very obscure look, "I dare not."
maple:"……"
"Ahem." Ye Lai coughed dryly, "The master of this body, we did not scare him."
The indigenous mecha man turned his head, and although his cheeks were made of steel, Yu Cang felt a sense of grievance from them.
...It seems that he was really scared by these two legends, Ye Lai and Feng.
Yu Cang then spoke up, "Hello, I'm Yu Cang. They are all my comrades. If I wasn't hospitable enough just now, I apologize on their behalf."
"...It's okay." The mecha man replied hesitantly.
"Could you tell me your name?"
"I was born not long ago and don't have a name yet."
"Okay, that's okay." Yu Cang nodded. "Ran Zhi's introduction just now might have been a little offensive. Now, could you please introduce yourself?"
"Let him come." The mecha man turned his head away, "I don't dare."
Yu Cang: "..."
OK, it turns out to be a person.
"Scholar! I really didn't mean it!" Ran Zhi quickly interrupted, "Even a Chaos Creation like the Imaginary Palace has such a muddled mind and is difficult to communicate with. I really didn't expect such a young Chaos Creation to be like this!"
"Hmm?" Yu Cang sensed the message in Ran Zhi's words. "Imaginary Palace? Are you referring to the one I'm thinking of?"
"Yes, that's right." Ran Zhi nodded. "The reason why my former king was able to establish a force like the Imaginary Palace was very important. It was a huge chaotic creation in the shape of a palace. It could easily determine its position in the chaos and use secret methods to guide others."
"So that's how it is." A thought flashed across Yu Cang's eyes.
No wonder Ye said that Ran Zhi would understand the chaotic creation very well.
If that's the case, then the value of this chaotic creation is probably higher than I imagined.
The mecha in front of him was naturally no match for the Imaginary Palace, but from what Ran Zhi said, the consciousness of the Imaginary Palace was very turbid and it was impossible to communicate at all, while the mecha was just the opposite... With this in mind, perhaps the mecha could do no less than the Imaginary Palace.
Thinking of this, Yu Cang asked, "Can all Chaos Creations grow to the level of the Imaginary Palace?"
Ran Zhi shook his head: "It's very difficult... In fact, there are not many chaotic creatures in the chaos. The probability of such a creature being born is very low. It takes tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of years to hear that a chaotic creature was born somewhere. Moreover, their lifespans vary. Some can live for a long time, while others will dissipate in a few days.
"Even if they manage to survive... Chaos Creations find it difficult to grow. It's not that there haven't been souls who've targeted Chaos Creations, attempting to build a second Imaginary Palace, but after all these years, no one has managed to do so. Chaos Creations grow very slowly, and without secret techniques, most souls won't survive to see that day.
"Even if you survive... the chaotic creatures with murky minds, there's almost no chance of cooperation. Only my former king, through some unknown method, was able to achieve cooperation with the Imaginary Palace."
After saying this, Ran Zhi glanced at the mecha man.
The mecha man still turned his head, but this time, there was no reaction.
Yu Cang understood.
To those souls, the chaotic creation sounds like a useless thing that is neither tasty to eat nor a pity to throw away.
Rare and useless.
"However, that's just for ordinary people," Ran Zhi continued. "I believe that for you, the scholar, these are minor issues. If a Chaos Creation is fortunate enough to serve under you, surpassing the Imaginary Palace will be a piece of cake!"
“…Stop flattering me.”
"Okay."
Yu Cang turned to look at the mecha man and suddenly said, "Then why... does he look a bit like my 'Individual Reactive Armor'?"
It has reached the point where it can be identified as a copy at a glance.
"This... might be due to some coincidence." Ran Zhi thought for a moment before saying, "I heard... hundreds of millions of years ago, the Imaginary Palace wasn't like this either... Chaos Creatures were born in chaos and are an extremely empty species.
"As you know, Chaos is a vast and fertile place, allowing only 'obsession' to exist. Chaos creatures born within it naturally cannot escape this law. Their obsession is to understand the world.
"However, there's nothing worth 'knowing' about Chaos. Everything here looks the same. Therefore, Chaos creatures' understanding of the world can only come from other souls... They will also continuously improve their own appearance in the process.
"Back then, the Imaginary Palace was transformed into a palace after millions of years of 'training' by my former king. And he..."
Ranzhi glanced at the mecha man.
"It must be due to various accidents that I became connected with your subordinates. Then I sensed their obsessions and, based on those obsessions, I became like this."
Hearing this, Yu Cang suddenly understood.
So that’s it, case solved!
How could he not know what Qiu Ding was thinking?
Explode, blast, blast! So cool, so cool!
Ever since I found out about the mechanical clan I created, I have lost my appetite and have been wanting to get a set to use.
But this is military equipment, and there is a special order from above that it cannot be leaked out. Even Qiu Ding can't get it.
So he could only think about it himself.
So... it's obvious what his obsession is.
It's only normal that this mecha man was led astray by Qiu Ding and became like this.
Yu Cang nodded.
At this time, Ran Zhi suddenly came over.
"Scholar," he whispered, "This Chaos Creation before you looks different from the others. It would be best if you could control it yourself... Perhaps, it truly has the potential to surpass the Imaginary Palace..."
Hearing this, Yu Cang smiled.
"Ranzhi, what do you expect me to do?"
Ran Zhi was stunned: "Of course you sent him directly..."
Before she could finish, Yu Cang shook his head: "Ran Zhi, Qiu Ding is not my subordinate - I would not steal my friend's opportunity."
The probability of a soul in chaos establishing a connection with an existence in the mortal world is already low, not to mention that this soul is a rare creation of chaos.
Although Ran Zhi had just been criticizing the value of Chaos Creations, he could also tell that in Chaos, even if this thing was useless, it would definitely be a hot commodity.
Not to mention, mechas are very special.
It must be a blessing that Qiu Ding was able to meet him. His ancestors must have worked like cattle and horses for countless lifetimes in the underworld to earn this honor.
It was not right for Yu Cang to take it away just because he saw it first.
So what if there is a chance to surpass the Imaginary Palace?
He looked at the empty palace and found it to be nothing special.
If Yu Cang wanted something, he could just look for a better place. Anyway, the chaos now was like a back garden to him. He could come and go as he pleased.
Hearing this, Ran Zhi was stunned.
He looked at Yu Cang with a very natural expression, without any trace of pain or any other emotion.
Natural, yet confident.
He suddenly understood the meaning of what Yu Cang had just asked him.
Yes, in his expectation, what should Yu Cang do...
The mecha man has been interacting with Qiu Ding's obsession for some time, and it is obvious that the mecha man has chosen Qiu Ding.
Yu Cang could take it directly, of course, but... he, Ran Zhi, was also Yu Cang's "subordinate." In fact, he might not be as close to Yu Cang as Qiu Ding.
He is also Yu Cang's subordinate, and he is suggesting that Yu Cang take away a "colleague's" things?
If other people knew about this, they would definitely call him a scheming dog.
It’s bad. I almost became the person I hate the most.
At the same time, he felt a sense of touch in his heart.
The moment he said that, Yu Cang was so damn charming.
He realized that his decision to join Yu Cang's army might be the right one.
While he was thinking, Yu Cang had already arrived in front of the mecha.
"The person you're connected to is called Qiu Ding, and he's my friend," Yu Cang said. "Let me ask you on his behalf: what is your purpose?"
The mecha man turned around hesitantly.
He naturally heard what Yu Cang had just said.
After a moment's silence, he said, "I want to see the real world... I want to complete my true self and become the strongest Chaos Creation."
"Beside Qiu Ding?"
"Yeah, next to him."
"Okay, I can help you." Yu Cang smiled, "Don't try to hurt him, otherwise, I will personally turn your dream into smoke."
This chaotic creature must have been born not long ago, still just a "cub". At least for now, it doesn't seem to have any bad intentions... just keep observing it.
If Yu Cang did not take action, even if Qiu Ding sensed him and was extremely sure of his existence, he would not be able to summon him out.
Lan Xing didn't even know what Chaos was, let alone preparing a summoning ritual or using materials to reshape the body.
Of course, Yu Cang doesn't need to go through so much trouble - just use an excess amount.
…
Yu Cang returned to the present world.
He looked at Qiu Ding who was full of expectation.
"Qiuding, do you want a comrade?"
"Of course, Master!"
"Then get ready." Yu Cang reached out and placed a soul card in Qiu Ding's hand. "Follow my guidance, feel it well, and - help him choose a name."
After saying that, Yu Cang withdrew his hand.
As Qiu Ding's gaze fell, the blank soul card in his hand had already burst out with countless chaotic lights, and the card body was gradually infected by black.
"Name..." Qiu Ding murmured, "Then I'll call you..."
Buzz!
The light condensed, and a soul card appeared.
