Chapter 784: Past Events of the First Era
Lu Yuandong looked around, as if he wanted to explore all the territories. Then the artificial intelligence "Time Elf" sent a series of alarms: "Please note: Antimatter warehouses, transportation channels, and supermagnetic field generators must be in a vacuum state, otherwise a huge explosion may occur."
"Please do not enter until maintenance is completed."
"The radioactive element storage warehouse. Some elements have already decayed and need to be re-purified before normal use."
On the holographic screen, a densely packed list of tables appeared, showing information such as a damaged sewer pipe, suspected equipment leaks, a fan that needed lubrication, and dust-free factories that needed cleaning, etc.
This series of maintenance requirements made Lu Yuan's scalp tingle, and he sighed deeply, "It's really not easy to be an interstellar governor."
It has to be admitted that level six civilizations also have to follow economic principles, and conventional materials such as steel have not been eliminated.
However, entropy increase is eternal, and various errors always occur in every corner of the city.
Errors continue to accumulate, and even the artificial intelligence carefully developed by the civilization of the time cannot correct them.
Many detailed maintenance tasks can only be completed by intelligent life. From this perspective, intelligent life is indeed a low-entropy body in the universe.
However, at the moment, he was unable to perform maintenance, so he simply entered a nearby instrument and used various idealistic abilities such as "super thinking" and "bullet time" to speed up his thinking.
"It may take quite some time for my mind to enter the central treasury near the black hole. You don't have to worry. After one day, the artificial intelligence here will release those leaders who are undergoing trials." Lu Yuan instructed the logistics team.
The old cat replied, "I understand."
Lu Yuan then instructed the AI: "Time Spirit, please transfer the management authority of the Star Port to the relevant aliens of the Kame Civilization in one week."
He actually wants to transfer management authority to humans.
However, the database of "Time Elf" does not contain the eighteen human civilizations, so it can only be transferred to the Kame civilization.
"It doesn't make a big difference anyway."
After doing everything, he entered a hibernation chamber-like device and closed his eyes.
[The central treasury inspection function is being activated... Please wait...]
In just a short moment, he entered a dream state, as if he had arrived in the "Central Treasury".
The so-called "national treasury" is a special alien space.
The moment Lu Yuan entered, he felt the weirdness of the space. His vision was completely chaotic, and his eyes seemed to have penetrating power, able to see everything in all directions. In other words, if he looked forward, he could actually see his back, and even his heart, bones, and muscles!
In this space, the command to "forward" is misinterpreted and refracted.
Lu Yuan wanted to go in one direction, but swam in a random direction.
The flow of time also becomes thin and strange. One second is stretched into eternity, and it seems to span an infinite distance.
The interior's curved surfaces extend infinitely, yet are clearly enclosed and finite. The silvery-white paint on the walls no longer reflects external light, but instead flows with complex, unpredictable topological patterns.
Light here does not travel in a straight line; it runs along the curvature, drawing a self-intersecting, never-ending spiral.
There are no shadows because light arrives from all directions simultaneously.
"Is this... a Klein bottle existing in four-dimensional space?" Lu Yuan frowned slightly.
"Fortunately, I am just a thinking being, otherwise it would be difficult to survive here..."
He wandered around randomly and saw the legendary warehouses of "antimatter", "electron degenerate state" and "neutron degenerate state matter".
In fact, there is nothing much to say. He simply cannot understand these cutting-edge materialistic technologies.
"This warehouse is even larger than I imagined. My current movement speed is quite high... Is it because of the special properties of this space?"
About ten minutes later, he saw an ancient jade piece floating in the air. That was the final information left by the civilization of that era, and it was also what Lu Yuan wanted to find.
"Idealistic objects can actually last forever here..." Lu Yuan touched it lightly and knew that this was not an ordinary idealistic object, but an innate object produced by Pangu Continent - a small piece of "Creation Jadeite", which was the same thing as the "jade" in his mind.
"So that's how it is. The civilization of the time used the power of the black hole to block this forbidden information."
"If this piece of Creation Chalcedony were taken out of the national treasury, it would be immediately discovered by the Gods. But here, the gravity is too strong, and both idealism and materialism have been distorted..."
A mysterious message entered my mind.
The story of the First Age unfolds like a scroll.
…
…
"Domu, Domu! Wake up!"
"Master wants to discuss something with you!"
Lu Yuan woke up drowsily and saw the immortal giant turtle chewing the grass beside him, and the second-generation Mo Men leader "Duomu" lying decadent on the bed. He immediately realized that he had once again entered the illusion of history.
As the [Greedy Demon], he is just a passing visitor in this historical fantasy.
Duomu jumped up and said excitedly: "Master... have you made any new discoveries?!"
"Go over there quickly and don't let Master wait too long!" said the eldest brother with a tiger head.
"Understood."
The timeline at this moment seems to be before the Kunlun Mirror discovered the "Yin World".
The two masters, Turtle and Crane, are still normal people.
However, at the foot of the floating mountain, all the major innate myths are using "infinite qi" to sacrifice blood to each other. The disaster has broken out, races are fighting, and corpses are everywhere.
Duomu went down the mountain many times. Even though he was born with strong bloodline, possessed the Zhuxian Sword and had extraordinary combat power, he could do nothing in the face of the vast situation. So he couldn't help feeling sad and drank every day to relieve his boredom.
Lu Yuan followed behind "Duomu" and ran along the path.
On the suspended mountain, vegetation is lush, and in the early morning, fairy birds herald auspicious signs, but there are few people.
Most of the disciples have returned to their tribe, and only a few true disciples remain on the mountain.
“Master!”
"Well, Duomu, you are here..." Master Roshi looked a little tired. Next to him was the famous [Pangu Brain] which had not yet been completed.
"These days, I had a sudden urge to divine good and bad luck, and found that my Mo Sect was actually facing a bloody disaster!" As soon as Master Roshi opened his mouth, Duomu was frightened.
"Especially your Master He. His middle doorway is darkening, and there are faint signs of death. I'm afraid it's related to him using the Kunlun Mirror to observe celestial phenomena."
"And your Tiger-headed Senior Brother also looks like he's going to die soon. This time, our Mo Sect is going to be in trouble."
This top-level innate myth, whose life span is unknown, is the best at turning misfortune into good fortune.
Duomu was a little nervous: "Could the disaster in the lower world affect us? How can we avoid it? What can disciples do?!"
"I originally wanted to close the mountain gate and reopen it after the disaster..." Master Roshi said calmly, "But as soon as this thought came to mind, even you began to feel a bad omen... The whole world became empty."
"Immortal Crane and I conducted a joint deduction and ultimately discovered that death is our destiny! We must die. If we don't, the entire Pangu Continent will be destroyed!"
"Only if we die can things continue..." His voice dropped slightly. "But why must we die? The reason is that we must use our lives to develop a new generation of mythical weapons, a new myth that surpasses infinite energy... Only then can the world continue to exist."
"Master... Master?!" Duomu was shocked beyond words by this piece of information.
Even Lu Yuan, who was eavesdropping secretly, was amazed that Master Roshi had already known his fate!
Even though they didn't know the real details, they had already glimpsed the vague future.
Master Roshi calmed down a bit: "Well, it's hard to say when you'll die, not to mention that everyone will die. I didn't come here to talk about this."
"I've always wondered where 'Infinite Qi' came from. It can't have just appeared out of nowhere."
"The use of 'Infinite Qi' has inexplicably spread. Someone must have been behind this."
"So I started looking for where the first 'Infinite Qi' came from."
Duomu was a little stunned: "Yes! When I was traveling, I met the snake people."
"The Snake Leader claimed that he had been given a way to use infinite Qi through a trade with another race. It has no side effects and offers unlimited energy!"
"I have been searching for a long time and found that the method was passed down from somewhere else... but ultimately came up empty-handed."
The so-called truth is not easy to find.
Because the racial war has been going on for thousands of years, the method of using "Infinite Qi" has been passed from you to me and from me to you. How can we sort out this mess?
Master Roshi sighed and said, "Over the years, I have sought help from many tribal leaders and sorted out the information from the past thousand years. Finally, I found a general direction. The Western Continent was the first to appear infinite energy, but the person behind it has never been found. It's as if they disappeared into thin air."
"I kept deducing and divination, and inexplicably came up with an inspiration. This matter might be related to Pangu's evil thoughts."
"Evil...evil thoughts?!" It was the first time that Duomu heard this term.
"Long ago, the great god Pangu passed away, creating the world and all things. His thoughts split in two, with the good thoughts sinking and becoming the rules of the world."
"Everything in the world, everything we think and feel, is part of the rules," Master Roshi said. "Why is this mountain beneath our feet floating? Where does the so-called law of levitation come from?"
"Why do plants grow fruits? When you are hungry, you need to eat; when you are thirsty, you need to drink water. Everything we take for granted is the product of Pangu's kindness."
"If this world is a dream, we are part of it. As long as Pangu thinks, we will change..."
"Fortunately or unfortunately, he passed away, so he never had the chance to think again. The reason we craftsmen were able to create new rules is because we temporarily gained a small amount of dream authority."
This was the first time Duomu had heard of this statement. He couldn't help but widen his eyes and felt a dry mouth.
Of course, the world is not as simple as a dream. This is just a figurative metaphor.
"But Pangu's evil thoughts have disappeared..." Master Roshi changed the subject, "In theory, Pangu's evil thoughts can also transform into a world where life is extinct, and not even a single creature can survive."
"Your Master He is searching for that world through the Kunlun Mirror..."
"Could that be the source of infinite Qi?"
Master Roshi replied, "Yes, but also no... Pangu was kind-hearted, just like 'a dying man's words are kind'. He took care of all of our races as if they were his own children and left us with complete rules."
"There aren't many worlds like ours in the Sea of Chaos."
"Even though racial wars are frequent now, they are only man-made disasters, not natural ones. This world has not treated us unfairly."
"But what about evil thoughts? I pondered over what they were thinking, but couldn't figure it out. It was only in these past few days that I suddenly realized it."
Master Roshi's speech was not fast, but Duomu was frightened by it, and he felt that a storm was about to come.
His whole body was shaking.
Lu Yuan also held his breath. As a third party, he was directly ignored in the illusion of history.
Turtle Hermit said: "My destiny is to die one day in the future and extend the life of Pangu Continent."
"Even though I've prepared myself mentally, I still feel a little unwilling..."
"I don't want to die." Master Kame said, "My thoughts are actually part of the rules."
"Since I think this way, it means Pangu would think the same way. Therefore, the real thought of the evil thought is [not wanting to die]. This is the greatest obsession in life. I am sure he would think this way!"
His words were like an epiphany for Lu Yuan, and he felt as if he had suddenly realized something.
"Duomu, Master's time is running out... If you have the chance, you must go to the Western Continent and find out who is causing this trouble!!"
…
The picture of history shattered like a dream, leaving Lu Yuan standing there in a daze. The amount of information in this passage was too much, and he had to rack his brains to think about it!
"Pangu's evil thoughts... is he still alive? He wants to be resurrected? What does this have to do with God? Is Pangu's evil thoughts God?!"
Not only did the doubts not decrease, but they increased.
However, the statement that "the world is like a dream" does explain the origin of "conceptual ability". Once the mind moves, the dream will change. All idealistic abilities are just a derivative of dreams.
Lu Yuan even had a wild suspicion: "Is Pangu trying to achieve a terrifying realm above the "eternal level" through Nirvana?"
"Is everything happening now a part of Nirvana?"
"Are we Nirvana's enemies? But who is Nirvana's true self? God, or the will of the world? Or are we Nirvana's allies?"
He was slightly distracted, and only stopped daydreaming when the next historical scene reappeared.
