Chapter 788: Self-awareness
The endless volcanoes that stretch as far as the eye can see are extremely hot. Each of them looks ordinary, but upon closer inspection, it turns out that they are made up of countless twisted runes that overlap, interweave, and fuse.
The crater was bright and brilliant, spewing out colorful divine flames endlessly, and the long river of time and space had dried up under its scorching heat.
The past time and space of this area was burned up.
Such a huge amount of flame energy is actually just the waste produced by various research institutes in hidden laboratories deep underground, and the endless volcanoes are the discharge outlets.
Deep underground, a faint red light flickered in the dark space. An indistinct figure lay flat on the altar, its body filled with flesh and blood tubes extending from the void. They twisted and squirmed like a living creature, constantly infusing unknown substances into its body.
“Zhuo, Zhuo Yun!?”
His eyes slowly opened, blossoming in the darkness, appearing increasingly scarlet, with an extremely complicated look, as if he was using his remaining sanity to do his best to suppress the evil thoughts in his heart.
"Why did you come back? You shouldn't have come back to this damn place... I don't need you to save me!!"
Snap!
The golden needles were forced out from the depths of his consciousness, and his scarlet eyes swept over them, cutting them off in mid-air.
He never thought that Zhuo Yun would make such a stupid mistake and return to the Yi Miao Forbidden Zone, so that he did not crush the golden needle at the beginning.
It was already a little late now. He sensed Zhuo Yun's approach, so he thought about destroying the golden needle to give the other party a warning and leave quickly without being confused.
"drop--"
"Subject 908241, abnormal fluctuations in consciousness, analysis, tracing the source..."
Black fog filled the air, and several figures in black robes stepped out from it. They glanced at the test subjects on the altar with indifferent and cold eyes, and all the information was revealed before them.
“Intruder!!”
Boom! In the underground world, the huge research institute that occupied the entire space flashed with dazzling red light, and sleeping figures were awakened one after another. They stretched out their hands to tear off the flesh hose, slowly stood up, and looked out to the outside world with eyes full of pure murderous intent.
Above the endless volcano.
Zhuo Yun's figure suddenly froze, and his eyes turned slightly red as he looked at the golden needle in his hand that had dimmed.
"You Mitian, you, why do you have to do this!"
"If you hadn't covered my back, we wouldn't have fallen here. I should be the one who suffered so much, and you bore it all for me!"
"I'm late..."
"This time, even if it means death, I will not run away again!"
Sizzle!
Zhuo Yun's eyes were stern and his expression was firm. He raised his hand and tore off his linen robe, revealing a piece of armor that was shining with divine light. His withered body instantly returned to the appearance of a young man. Endless great power spread out behind him, with information and time and space lingering on it, and thousands of ways floating in it, majestic and unpredictable.
Seeing this scene, Bai Donglin couldn't help but nodded slightly, with a hint of recognition in his eyes.
There is affection and righteousness, and both sides are willing to sacrifice their lives for each other. If lower-level creatures knew that the Supreme Other Side that is above the heavens also has such emotions, they would probably be extremely surprised.
That is why it is so precious.
Moreover, this is also the most essential difference between all living beings and the Black Disaster, which goes beyond the differences in the forms of life existence.
In the eyes of many low-level cultivators in remote areas, when one’s realm reaches a certain level and surpasses everything, such a strong person will become indescribable, without emotion, desire, thoughts or ideas.
In fact, this is not the case. This kind of practice does exist in the endless heavens. It cuts off all emotions and desires, and in the end it can even become the will of heaven, the great way, and the will of the heavens, a state of emptiness and selflessness.
Because of its extreme nature, this path grows much faster, but compared with the perfect cultivation system of the endless heavens, it seems very inferior. This is a low-level path that has long been abandoned by countless powerful people.
Be emotionless and desireless, have no thoughts or ideas, be lawless and selfless, and completely cultivate yourself into "nothingness".
So, is this really the ultimate pursuit of all living beings?
After going through countless hardships, enduring endless sufferings, and practicing for a long time, what you are pursuing is "nothingness"? To refine yourself to nothingness? Is that still yourself? What is the difference between life and death, existence and non-existence! ?
From a logical point of view, giving up oneself for the sake of power is undoubtedly an act that goes against the original intention and will not be accepted by all living beings. They have better and stronger paths of practice.
Self-consciousness!
As the foundation of the thirteen realms of transcendence, the self, divine self, other self, and super self in consciousness, "self" is always the core and the most important. The existence of self can allow the strong to maintain their original true self under infinite power! ! No matter how the world changes, even if you step into transcendence from a weak person, you will always be the original you, and there will be no change. What grows is only the means of mind.
Your thoughts and your personality are eternal and will not be lost in power. They will not quietly turn into a monster that even you do not recognize.
This is true for Bai Donglin and Zhuo Yun. Although they both possess boundless power that can transcend the heavens and destroy countless lives in the universe with a single thought, they are still affectionate and loyal, maintaining their true selves, and are a living person!
The so-called heartless and desireless gods are nothing but poor creatures who have lost themselves in power. The endless heavens and all living creatures have the most perfect way of cultivation, so they naturally disdain such clumsy things.
Boom boom
As Bai Donglin thought, the endless volcanoes trembled violently, the divine flames surged a thousand times, and the entire continental plate split into two from the center, revealing the dark space underground, with countless strangely shaped buildings standing tall.
There were many figures with strange auras, looking up at the sky, with scarlet eyes without any emotion, indifferent and cold, but with murderous intent.
“Intruder!!”
"die--"
“Zhuo Yun, run away!!”
You Mitian's eyes were bloodshot, and he slapped his head hard with his sharp claws. His eyes were flashing with ferocity, and he was almost unable to control himself.
The ego consciousness became tattered under the erosion of a strange force, and the "self" became the last ray of light in it, but it was like a candle in the wind and could be swallowed by the darkness at any time.
"Mitian!"
Zhuo Yun widened his eyes, looking at You Mitian's miserable appearance that was no longer human, and his deformed body that looked like a monster, and his fingers couldn't help but tremble slightly.

Miserable! Too miserable! It was hard to imagine how cruel and inhumane You Mitian had been through in the past few small eras.
You know, You Mitian is famous among all the people in the heavens for his handsomeness, elegance and charm. He has always been disgusted by ugly things. No one expected that he would become like this now.
This is not a simple deformation of the physical body, but a tampering of the information source. The original information has been polluted and it is difficult to restore it to its original state.
“Damn it! Damn it!!”
"You, the relics of the Black Disaster, are truly hateful! Kill! Kill! All of you, die—"
Zhuo Yun's heart full of guilt instantly turned into raging rage. Although he still had his rationality, his strength surged like never before. His majestic aura completely crushed the boundless sky.
A wonderful forbidden area is a world similar to the primitive continent. In the strange time and space, there is only one continent standing alone. It is boundless and extremely vast. Even if the whole universe is smashed on it, it will not cause the slightest ripple.
From this we can see how high the sky is and how boundless the earth is. In a rage, Zhuo Yun actually tore the entire sky apart, and his great power on the other side was undoubtedly demonstrated.
"Information! Invincible!"
Zhuo Yun's eyes were shining. He added the "invincible" setting to the source of his information. His aura surged again, reaching his strongest state.
On the other side of eternity, one plays with information and applauds, and the level of one's realm is determined by one's own "information depth".
For example, two people on the other side are fighting, one of them adds the "invincible" setting to himself, while the other adds the "one level higher than you when we meet" setting to himself. At this time, there is a logical conflict. Who has a higher priority depends on the depth of their respective information.
Bai Donglin stood in the sky with his hands behind his back. Seeing the strength displayed by Zhuoyun, he couldn't help but nodded slightly.
"Yes, you are worthy of being the director of the Perfect Universe branch of the Spacetime Administration. You are quite capable. You are already one ten-thousandth of my strength at full strength."
"Intruder! Capture! Eliminate!"
You Mitian also completely lost his mind. Under the control of a strange force, he and many experimental subjects rushed towards Zhuo Yun.
Bai Donglin lowered his eyes and saw through the details of this research institute. This was not the same group of invisible hunters they encountered at the beginning, and they did not use the crystal ball that could deprive them of information and time and space.
However, they should not be underestimated either. These modified test subjects are real beings on the other side, and their original power is still intact. Under siege, Zhuo Yun is in great danger.
"This guy Zhuoyun..."
When the fierce battle broke out, Bai Donglin's eyebrows moved, and he sensed several waves of prying passing by. It was Zhuo Yun's outburst just now that attracted the attention of other nearby research institutes.
In a wonderful forbidden area, the research institutes hidden in various places can be divided into two factions, one from the Black Disaster and the other from Dr. Chen. They are completely hostile to each other. Even if they are abandoned, they still operate according to the will of the transcendent.
Zhuo Yun was not trying to vent his anger just now, but wanted to use the power of another faction's research institute to deal with the black disaster.
"Haha, it seems you still don't have enough confidence in me!"
Bai Donglin shook his head and laughed, looking at Zhuo Yun who was engaged in a tough battle, he stopped watching the show and walked into the battlefield.
"Little guys, it's time to get going!"
Grasp the whirlpool of heavens with your hands and press it down slowly.
