Chapter 648 World
With a loud bang, Li Qi felt something explode in his head.
It was like someone dropped a nuclear bomb on flat ground.
Earth.
This term is not uncommon in the interstellar age.
As far as Li Qi could find, there are at least 1,368,000 main planets in star systems called this.
But there is only one 'Earth' that Sally can call it that and that can shock Li Qi so much.
Li Qi traveled through the world before.
That clear and blue world, a world that Li Qi may never be able to return to.
I don’t know how much time has passed, maybe a few seconds, maybe a few minutes, or even a few hours.
Li Qi felt like a very long time had passed before his consciousness gradually returned. He asked Sally, "So, you... are time travelers?"
"We are all time travelers." The man next to Sally said, "This is what she didn't tell you."
"I don't think it's the right time."
Sally retorted the man's words.
Then she looked at Li Qi and said, "After all, even if you know this now, you are completely powerless. You haven't even reached the pinnacle of this world, let alone transcending this world."
"This... this world... what kind of world is this? What are you talking about?"
Li Qi's brain froze when Sally said "Earth". His mind was in a mess and he couldn't understand what Sally said.
The man asked, "What do you think the World Sea is?"
"The world...formed an ocean?"
"What about outside the World Sea?"
The man continued to ask.
This time, Li Qi understood what he meant.
But when he understood it, Li Qi suddenly wanted to laugh. The expression on his face was very interesting. The corners of his mouth wanted to rise, but after twitching twice, they calmed down again.
There was confusion and absurdity in his gem-like red eyes, and then he said:
"There's a world outside of the world, and then there's a new world outside of the world, infinite nesting dolls? What about you?"
"Once you leave this world sea, there will be no new world."
Sally seemed to understand Li Qi's current mood. She explained patiently:
"This universe of yours... oh, the world sea, among us [Transcendents], it is called the [Lost World], and it is also the world least likely to give birth to Transcendents.
"There are only two worlds that run parallel to this world, namely [Fantasy] and [Projection]. You don't need to consider either of these two worlds, because they have nothing to do with you."
"Can you explain it to me?"
Li Qi calmed down and asked the two people.
Sally shrugged to show that she didn't care, then looked at the man next to her.
The man sighed and said, "Okay, okay, I'll explain. I'm the new guy after all."
He turned to Li Qi and said, "Before traveling through time, have you watched the movie?"
"Um."
"Then it's easy to explain the [Fantasy] world. That world is a fantasy world that contains all kinds of fantasies such as 'movies', 'anime', and 'novels'."
"What about the Lost World?" Li Qi asked again.
The man continued to ask: "Guess where the fantasy world came from?"
"How... did you come?" Li Qi couldn't answer for a moment.
The man immediately gave an answer: "The works of the people on Earth have formed a complete world here. Don't you find it strange?"
“…”
“So the answer is that the fantasy world is a world that is constructed by the collective spirit of the people on Earth and exists after being stabilized and recognized.
"All the worlds in [Fantasy] have works on Earth. Even if they are small works that no one cares about, they still have a place in that world."
Li Qi gradually understood what the man meant.
Simply put, all kinds of works imagined by people on Earth will become real things in the [fantasy] world.
This is the essence of [Fantasy].
"And [Lost]... is a world formed by various thoughts that have been forgotten, forgotten, and discarded by people. These worlds do not exist in the real world. Oh, maybe they are similar, but they are definitely not the same."
The man's explanation also made Li Qi understand the meaning of the word "loss".
People are coming up with countless ideas every moment, but they are also abandoning them every moment.
This is especially true for creators.
Cartoonists, screenwriters, novelists, painters...even just storytellers, will have more stories in their minds, but also more stories to discard.
In this world, these abandoned stories will be gathered together to become various worlds that are logically self-consistent, look similar, but are completely different.
They are the existence formed by abandoned thoughts.
That’s why it’s called [Lost].
Although Li Qi thinks that "Abandonment" is more appropriate.
"Then the projection is the projection of the earth world?" By analogy, Li Qi guessed the meaning of the last name of the universe.
The man smiled and nodded: "Yes, but... it's a little different."
"What's the difference?"
"At least Earth doesn't have any supernatural powers right now... maybe, but the projection world does."
In other words, the projection world is also a fantasy world in a sense. In such a world, worldviews such as "rebirth", "supernatural", "cultivation of immortals" and "superpowers" will exist at the same time as the projection of the earth.
These are worlds that appear to be the same as the real world, but are actually quite different.
Wait... Li Qi suddenly remembered what the man said just now. He looked up and asked:
"You said 'there are no supernatural powers now'. What do you mean 'now'? Didn't the Earth have any supernatural powers originally?"
"I don't know about that." The man shrugged. "But even if it didn't happen before, it will happen soon in the future."
"Why?"
"What do you think collapse is?" The man seemed to like answering questions with rhetorical questions, but it must be said that this did trigger Li Qi's thinking.
He thought about it for a long time, and suddenly his eyes widened as he got an unbelievable answer:
"Is the earth...collapsing towards here?!"
"No, on the contrary." The man finally became serious. He said seriously: "We are collapsing towards reality... or to be more precise, all the worlds here are gradually merging with reality.
"And that nothingness that none of you can see through is reality."
"So...what happens after the collapse? What will it look like?"
"I don't know. No one knows at the moment, but what is certain is that, apart from those of us who originally came from Earth, and those who have transcended the limitations of the universe, everything else that collapses into reality will disappear...
"As for reality, as a result of absorbing these 'nutrients', it will begin to possess extraordinary abilities. This is the so-called... um, 'spiritual revival'?"
The man paused for a moment here, as if giving Li Qi time to digest the information.
When the time was almost up, Sally took over the man's words and said:
"But you don't have to think about these things now. What you need to do now is to return to where you should be and become a transcendent in the shortest possible time. Only in this way can you protect the people you want to protect."
"Go...where to go?" Li Qi asked blankly.
"Ten Thousand Stars Realm, the end of your journey."
Sally said so.
"Ten Thousand Stars Realm..." Li Qi muttered to himself, and then said: "But... I was rejected by the Ten Thousand Stars Realm because of my power, and I comprehended the Dao rhyme in the Cang Xuan Realm..."
"You don't have to worry about those." Sally interrupted Li Qi.
Li Qi was stunned: "Don't worry about it?"
"Yes, don't worry about it. You just need to continue to improve yourself. Don't worry about anything else."
Sally said to Li Qi seriously, patted him on the shoulder, and finally said:
"Before I become a transcendent, this is the last time we meet, but I believe... we will meet again, so... goodbye?"
Why is it a question?
This question finally flashed through Li Qi's mind, and then his eyes blurred and his figure disappeared from the spot.
…
After this conversation, both Hong Ling and Yue Ling fell silent.
Because they found out that Richie was missing.
"…broken."
Yue Ling didn't care that the candy in her hand fell to the ground. Her consciousness instantly spread throughout the entire last place, but she found nothing.
Then she repeated:
"It's bad. Something terrible has happened."
Richie is lost...it's actually a small matter.
Although the child of the Sarnak family is indeed important, and Charlotte's identity as a great-great-grandson is also important, Yue Ling is a saint. If she lost someone else's child, the worst that could happen is that she would apologize and go look for the child in person, and the matter would be over.
What really troubled her was another matter.
Richie had lost it right under her nose.
The implications of this are chilling if you think about it carefully.
Yue Ling is a saint.
In fact, there is no accurate division of the ten levels.
There is no division such as beginner, intermediate, advanced, etc. A saint is a saint, and the tenth level is the tenth level. There is no difference in strength between them.
Because no one can beat each other, and no one can defeat each other, there is no point in them fighting.
So if Richie can lose his trace in front of Yue Ling, it means that he can also lose his trace in front of other saints.
The meaning behind this is the most terrifying thing.
This proves that there is someone more powerful than the Saint...who took Richie away.
“Master…”
Hong Ling also understood and felt suddenly terrified.
She also understood the meaning of this.
"Ling'er, come with me...come with me!"
After searching for a while without success, Yue Ling said to Hong Ling with a little nervousness and excitement.
After the initial panic, Yue Ling calmed down and gradually remembered the legend circulated among the saints.
The Transcendent...
The only person who could quietly take someone away in front of the saint could be a transcendent! There is a transcendent here! In this last place! It was because of this that Yue Ling was so excited.
If the Transcendent is really in the Last Place, then this world...maybe there is real hope for salvation! (End of this chapter)
