The cold notification tone, like intermittent radio waves from the edge of the universe, echoed faintly in the depths of Lin Mo's almost frozen consciousness. This voice had a familiar, inhuman, mechanical feel, but at this moment it was like a heavenly sound.
I…still…exist?
This realization was like a stone thrown into an icy lake, creating a very faint ripple.
Then, excruciating pain! Not from the body, but from the depths of consciousness! A throbbing pain of being forcibly stripped, entangled by icy chains, dragged into an endless abyss! Along with the excruciating pain came countless shattered, distorted, and purple-stained fragments of images, crashing into his fragile consciousness like a tsunami!
Purple chains… cold and slippery… wrapped around… dragging… a figure burning with dark gold flames… falling… into the endless purple abyss…
"The origin...will eventually...return to...chaos..." A cold, inhuman whisper, like the simultaneous flapping of billions of insect wings, echoed in the fragments of consciousness...
"Pei Du... Major General... Coordinates... Lock... Erase..." Another equally cold electronic synthesized voice, yet with a sense of precision, like executing an order...
The burning figure fell... The dark gold flame struggled frantically within the entanglement of the purple chains... Each struggle brought a soul-tearing pain... The core of the flame... a crystal spinning like a miniature star... was frantically corroded by the polluted purple lightning... Its light... was fading...
“Nooo ...
These fragments of painful and despairing memories, like countless red-hot steel needles, fiercely pierced his already collapsing consciousness! The pain was a thousand times worse than the physical pain! It was a resonance and empathy from the very source of his soul!
Just as his consciousness was about to be completely shattered by the surging painful memories and dragged into the eternal purple chaotic abyss by the cold whisper—
A cold hand, yet with a strange sense of stability, suddenly grabbed the "wrist" that was falling in his consciousness!
The power of this hand was not enormous, but it carried a kind of determination that penetrated time and space! It forcibly stopped Lin Mo's consciousness from falling!
Lin Mo’s consciousness “raised”.
In the endless darkness and nothingness, an extremely dim, almost transparent shadow appeared in front of him at some point.
The shadowy figure's face was blurry, shrouded in a flowing, dark golden mist. Only a resolute outline could be vaguely discerned. But those eyes...those eyes pierced through the blur, like two stars burning to the end of their lives, emitting a faint yet all-too-familiar dark golden light, carrying a kind of all-seeing fatigue and...a deep compassion.
Pei…Du?!
Lin Mo's consciousness fluctuated violently! Was it an illusion? Was it a near-death illusion?
The shadowy figure said nothing. It simply gripped Lin Mo's wrist tightly, preventing him from falling into the abyss of memory swirling with purple pollution. Then, it slowly raised its other, ethereal hand and pointed at the extremely faint, almost completely extinguished dark golden light deep within Lin Mo's consciousness—the last reverberation of the silent core of the starry sky.
Following its direction, a faint but extremely pure dark golden light, carrying a resolute will to burn itself to illuminate the darkness, flowed out from the shadow's fingers like a trickle of water and poured into the faint light deep in Lin Mo's consciousness!
Buzz!
The tiny light suddenly brightened up! It was like a spark was thrown into the ashes that were about to go out!
At the same time, Pei Du's blurry lips silently opened and closed with great difficulty. No sound came out, but an extremely clear thought, as if it had been directly imprinted in the depths of Lin Mo's soul, exploded:
"Don't believe...those lights!"
The moment his thoughts exploded, Pei Du's shadow suddenly pushed Lin Mo's consciousness upwards! Simultaneously, as if completing its final mission, the shadow grew dimmer and more transparent, as if ready to dissipate into nothingness at any moment. It gave Lin Mo one last "look," its eyes filled with endless instructions, heavy sorrow, and a hint of... indescribable, immense anger and warning towards a certain existence!
Then, its almost transparent figure suddenly turned around and rushed towards the surging torrent of memory fragments filled with purple pollution below without hesitation!
boom--!!!
The moment Pei Du's shadowy image plunged into the torrent of memories, it was like pouring ice water into boiling oil! The entire dark space of consciousness shook violently! Those shattered, twisted, and purple-stained images—Pei Du's body dragged by chains, the purple lightning corroding the core of the starry sky, the icy whispers and instructions... were instantly covered and dispersed by a torrent even larger, older, and more vast!
That is... the memory of the Star Core itself!
Lin Mo's consciousness, as if swept away by an irresistible torrent, instantly escaped from the cold void and fell into a terrifying vortex of bizarre things with information density high enough to burst any mortal's brain in an instant!
He "saw" it!
He beheld a boundless sea of laws, flowing with dark golden runes of order! That was the very source of the core of the starry sky, the cradle of the birth of order in all things! Countless stars were born and annihilated within it, like foam churning in the ocean. Ancient, vast, and eternal!
He saw a massive, ugly scar across the Sea of Law—the Entropy Rift! Endless purple chaos, like sticky pus and blood, continuously gushed out from the rift, frantically corroding and polluting the golden Sea of Law! The war between Order and Chaos had existed since the dawn of the universe!
