Chen Yang did not hesitate and directly chose to accept the baptism.
Suddenly, a white sphere appeared before his eyes, growing larger and larger until it enveloped Chen Yang almost instantly.
Chen Yang did not lose consciousness, but he also lost the ability to think.
He was curled up like a fetus in the womb. Although he was still conscious, his consciousness was pure, without any thoughts, just a feeling of peace and security.
A thin line also branched off from the sphere, connecting to the center of the Emperor's forehead. The Emperor lay comfortably on the ground, closing his eyes and enjoying the feeling.
Chen Yang felt his soul growing lighter and lighter, as if it had lost its weight and was about to merge into all things.
He can see everything around him: the sky, the ocean, the breeze, the sunlight, and all living things.
The feeling was strange, but Chen Yang woke up quickly; it felt like no time had passed at all.
After waking up, Chen Yang sat on the floor, looking somewhat bewildered.
The lucky guy ran over and licked Chen Yang's face, which brought Chen Yang back to his senses.
Just then, a knock sounded on the door.
"Mr. Chen Yang, we've arrived at YD. I'll take you to the ship for the return trip. It's a tourist ship, you know. You can stay in a deluxe room tonight."
The young man steering the boat could be heard.
We've arrived? Didn't we just reach the equator?
Chen Yang glanced at the sky outside; nothing had changed, it was still afternoon.
"Oh, okay." Chen Yang quickly opened the door.
“Mr. Chen, you haven’t left the house all day. I thought something had happened to you. I’m glad you’re alright.”
The Asian young man looked relieved.
It turns out a day has already passed; no wonder it's still afternoon outside.
"I'm a little seasick, sorry," Chen Yang said with a smile.
He had told the young man beforehand not to bother him unless it was absolutely necessary.
"It's alright, you still have half a day, you can take your time to look around," the young man said with a smile.
He led Chen Yang to meet the captain of another ship. This ship was a proper cruise ship, with complete facilities and many people, unlike the Asian young man's ship, where he was the only one returning.
However, this is also why Yun Hu approached him. Being alone makes it easier to handle any unexpected situations.
Chen Yang had completed all the necessary procedures before leaving the country, so the transfer to the cruise ship went very smoothly without any obstacles.
He didn't spend the half-day sightseeing; instead, he went to his own room on the cruise ship and began to feel the changes within himself.
One thing that was immediately noticeable was that he felt lighter.
It's not that I've lost weight, it's that my soul has changed.
He felt light, and at the same time, he cleared his mind.
To be more specific, he felt that everything around him was murky and the air was filled with a chaotic atmosphere.
The only one he felt was somewhat clean was the European Emperor, because the European Emperor had also undergone baptism.
"If I feel this way after just one baptism, I wonder if I'll develop a psychological aversion to cleanliness if I go through four."
Chen Yang muttered to himself.
It wasn't just lightness and clarity; he felt as if he were subtly connected to all things. It was a very mysterious feeling. He should have felt overwhelmed by receiving so much information, but he only felt joy.
This feeling of joy comes from within, it is the most essential pursuit of life, as if he is only beginning to understand the world today.
Chen Yang was immersed in this feeling until the cruise ship started moving.
He didn't enter the Micro Realm last night because Li Su'er couldn't contact him, so she didn't enter either. Although Chen Yang was on Ten Thousand Snake Island, Li Su'er still kept in sync with him. After Chen Yang woke up, he contacted Li Su'er and they arranged to enter the Micro Realm at eight o'clock today.
YN is in a different time zone than Beijing. While it's already dark in Beijing, it's just almost sunset here.
This is one of the reasons why Chen Yang didn't plan to go out in the afternoon, because there simply wasn't enough time.
Upon entering the micro-realm, Chen Yang immediately noticed that it was much cleaner than reality, without so much murky atmosphere.
This was exactly what he expected; the micro-world was far better than the real world.
At the same time, Chen Yang was able to sense the existence of spiritual energy more clearly, not with his eyes, but with his soul.
After this baptism, he discovered that he could vaguely perceive the existence of his own soul, which was independent of his physical body. At the same time, he also understood that it was indeed his own soul that had entered the microcosm.
And the physical body within the micro-realm was indeed, as they had guessed, the soul. However, in the micro-realm, the soul existed naturally, like matter.
He seems to have already explored a little bit of the essence of the microcosm.
After confirming the situation, he logged out of the micro-world and contacted Li Su'er and others.
"Alien Yang, you've reached the equator, right? You didn't log in yesterday because you were undergoing baptism, right?" Li Su'er asked as soon as she entered. When Chen Yang was in the Pacific Ocean, the signal wasn't very stable, so he just reported that he was safe and said he would talk about the rest once he entered the micro-world.
“Yes, I have already been baptized,” Chen Yang said.
"How are you feeling? Are you alright? Are you even human?" Li Su'er asked repeatedly.
"What do you mean I'm not human? Of course I am human."
Li Su'er was slightly disappointed. "What? He hasn't evolved into an alien yet? I was hoping to fully realize the nickname 'Alien Yang'."
"I'm sorry to disappoint you, this Earthling," Chen Yang said speechlessly.
Chen Yang, Li Su'er, Yun Huyun, and their families told him about the situation he had encountered. They did not hide anything about the changes and discoveries that had occurred to them.
"Once you've completed all four baptisms, you'll probably become an immortal, won't you?" Li Su'er teased. "You probably won't even look at the mundane world anymore."
"But we still have you, our fairy," Chen Yang said with a smile.
Chen Yang was rather glad he didn't bring Li Su'er this time, because he really didn't think this state was a good thing. Although he could feel nature more intimately, he began to doubt even the basic question of whether he was a "human being".
In the past, he always felt like a real, flesh-and-blood human being, at most a superhuman. But this time, he was indeed wavering.
After just one baptism, he felt that the earth was polluted and had a sense of complete harmony with nature. If all four baptisms were completed, he might really enter another state.
Fortunately, Chen Yang was relieved that the micro-world hadn't lied to him. His self-awareness was still intact, and his thoughts and personality hadn't changed much. At least he could still think about whether he was human or not, instead of starting to think that being human was bad.
As Chen Yang pondered this, he continued exploring Ten Thousand Snake Island and finally made a new discovery.
