Ruins of the past

Xingqun didn't believe that he was Zhou Bai at all.

Because the memories in his mind, his emotions, his attitude, and all his consciousness were telling him that he was a star...

And his reaction seemed to have been expected by the future demon.

Just listen to this loveless, absolutely rational high-level being slowly say: "Intelligent life cannot make rational judgments independent of its own memory."

"The fights between us again and again are just illustrating this point countless times..."

At the same time, the face of the star group in the hands of the Future Demon showed a look of pain. As someone who followed the Future Demon and watched all this, he felt extremely desperate in his heart.

If everything in the mind can be woven, if all love and hatred can be false, if all the qualities of intelligent beings can be changed at will by the future demon, then what is the point of fighting all the way to this point?

In the final analysis...all resistance, submission, resentment, and gratitude are just things that the future demon can modify at will.

Even all his persistence and thoughts at the moment can be changed in an instant.

The future demon's toying with human consciousness has almost destroyed all his beliefs.

At the same time, Future Demon's palm gently touched the head of Xingqun's body and said softly: "Wisdom comes from memory, and all intelligent creatures can only make choices rooted in their own memory."

"For example, at this moment..."

As he spoke, the head touched by the Future Demon glowed with little stars. The memory of the bystander's Xingqun's body has been integrated into the sea of ​​consciousness of another Xingqun along with the bursts of starlight.

In an instant, the two perspectives were different and conflicted with each other, and memories that almost tore Xingqun's head burst out at the same time.

He clearly remembered all his memories from childhood to adulthood, from awakening humanity to resisting Zhou Bai, to breaking into this world.

He clearly remembered every move he made after entering this virtual world.

But another memory showed the complete opposite.

He has the memories of his investigation after entering this world.

He also has the memory of being captured as soon as he entered the virtual world.

He remembered seeing countless experiments along the way.

I also remember that I watched another self watch countless experiments.

He remembered that he had launched an attack on Zhou Bai just a moment ago, to completely kill the evil god who was playing with his soul.

But he also remembered that the last moment he was clearly pressed on the head by the future demon...

The two memories told him two different realities and identities, and a fierce conflict broke out in his mind.

"I..." Xingqun held his head with a twisted face: "Who am I?!"

Future Demon looked at Zhou Bai aside and said calmly: "Do you want to continue? You have already lost."

Zhou Bai frowned and looked at the conflicted Xingqun. He seemed to be in some kind of deep thought.

Looking at this scene, the Future Demon slowly turned around, and his figure gradually disappeared into this space and time. Only his voice continued to float in the ears of everyone present.

"I know that you are still bound by emotions and inherent cognitions, and you cannot make the right decision quickly."

"So I can wait, wait for you to change your mind, wait for you to make a rational choice..."

At this moment, the Future Demon is standing high in the sky, an unknown amount of time and space away, coldly overlooking the entire virtual world, and even all the starry skies covered by the quantum network.

He silently observed the movement of the galaxy, the birth and death of billions of creatures, the past and future of the virtual society...

At the same time, every reaction of Zhou Bai, Chu Qiguang, Xingqun and others after entering the virtual world was clearly reflected in his eyes, becoming important data for another experiment.

'It's only a matter of time before Zhou Bai and Chu Qiguang make the right decision...'

‘The next thing to deal with is Taichu Dao Palace…’

'Further accelerate the progress of the plan, before the great civilization notices...'

While Future Demon was thinking, his attention shifted more from Zhou Bai and Chu Qiguang to the layers of experiments in the virtual world.

He continuously observes and runs experiments on memory and consciousness, and collects data on the self-perception of one experimental subject in the process of memory changes.

Under the infusion of memory, even Zhou Bai's distracted consciousness can only change accordingly. Infinitely woven memories bring infinite consciousness, infinite possibilities, and infinite possible futures.

But while collecting data on Zhou Bai's distraction, a trace of doubt suddenly emerged in Future Demon's heart.

'If even Zhou Bai's distraction will be instilled with memory, it will change the self-perception of consciousness, from Zhou Bai to Xingqun. ’

‘Then am I…really me again? ’

With this suspicion rising in his mind, various procedures started on their own.

Self-awareness testing begins...

Full memory retrieval begins...

The time-space interference physical examination begins...

One after another pre-set detections were activated, constantly eliminating the doubts in the future demon's heart.

The memory has not been instilled, the virtual world has not been tampered with, the material world has no traces of extra-temporal interference... Everything seems to be fine, which means that he is who he is, and it is not a consciousness woven out of any memory infusion. .

But just when Future Demon thought everything was normal, an abnormal message appeared in front of him.

It was an abnormal record originating from the material world and from the Federation's ultimate computer.

Following this abnormal record from the material world, Future Demon retrieved abnormal operations on virtual world data from the log records in the material world.

That is the process in which a large number of future demon memories are instilled into his consciousness algorithm.

Records of the entire operation, past memories, data backups... everything has been destroyed in the quantum network.

But in the material world, in the void... all of this eventually left a record.

‘Everyone who passes by will leave traces. ’

‘In the quantum network, all traces are almost erased. ’

‘But in the material world, in the void, traces of the past are left behind after all... Unless time and space are reversed, history is history and the past is the past. ’

As Future Demon continues to look through his memories before he was indoctrinated, layers of hidden seals are released from his consciousness algorithm.

A glimmer of understanding also arose in his mind.

"It turns out that I... am not a future demon."

"I'm Zhou Bai."

…

in the virtual world.

Zhou Bai looked at Chu Qiguang who was standing aside, and suddenly said: "So that's it... the future demon has already left."

Chu Qiguang glanced at Zhou Bai doubtfully: "What?"

As the light and shadow in front of him changed drastically, the world seemed to be torn apart by a pair of invisible hands. Another Zhou Bai slowly walked out of the torn world and said loudly: "The future demon has left our line."

"And before leaving, he made a bet with us."

"If I can regain my identity after instilling his memory, we can naturally take over everything he left here."

"If I can't do it, then I will be a future demon."

"For absolutely rational reasons, the future demons of the two worlds will only merge and not fight. If I become the future demon, it will mean that the future demon controls both worlds at the same time."

Chu Qiguang was stunned for a moment when he heard this. He understood the next moment and stopped his operations. In fact, he was just collecting information about the virtual world from the material world.

At this moment, he looked at Zhou Bai and asked, "Did you start with matter?"

Zhou Bai nodded: "It seems that you have also thought of it. Memory is equal to consciousness... This is a principle that can only work in the spiritual world, the conscious world, or the virtual world in front of you."

"But in the material world, it's a different story."

"The change of memory cannot affect the change of material, the body, experience, achievements of intelligent life... As long as these traces of the past still exist, even if the memory is instilled, the past identity can still be retrieved, and it cannot truly become the memory. people."

Speaking of this, Zhou Bai suddenly sighed: "But have we won? Logically speaking, he should not make such a mistake..."

Chu Qiguang said: "Why do you need to ask me one more question? He is your peer. You should understand that there is no winner or lose between us this time."

"Rather than saying it's a bet or a fight... it's better to say that the Future Demon is using our power and the environment of the Federation to further deepen his experiments. He is using the resources of this world to assist his development in that world."

"At the same time, out of absolutely rational considerations, he also needs us to solve the Taichu Dao Palace in this world without consuming each other..."

"At this moment, I'm afraid he has already continued to perfect his plan in that world."

Hearing this, Zhou Bai pondered for a moment and then said: "If we want to continue to achieve perfection by weaving memories, the next step is probably to weave reality, right?"

"This virtual world is, after all, just an intermediate state in his plan leading to the perfect world."

"Although he retreated this time, I'm afraid the situation will be worse the next time we meet..."

Chu Qiguang smiled slightly: "That's not necessarily the case. If the Future Demon can really create a world that I think is perfect, then I can join him."

Zhou Bai turned his head and looked at Chu Qiguang in surprise: "What did you say?"

Chu Qiguang waved his hand: "It's just a joke, don't be so nervous."

After that, he looked at the stars in front of him: "It should be okay to leave the rest of the mess to you, right?"

Zhou Bai said solemnly: "Is the situation over there already so bad?"

Chu Qiguang nodded seriously: "After you finish cleaning up here, hurry up and come to support."

"The final decisive battle between us and Taichu Dao Palace is in the Han world..."

Before Chu Qiguang disappeared, he suddenly added: "By the way, you have time to teach my sister something. She is quite suitable to learn from you."

Zhou Bai let out a sigh and asked curiously: "She is the key?"

"Who knows." As the voice dissipated, Chu Qiguang also disappeared from this world.

After Chu Qiguang left, the two Zhou Bai looked at each other. Zhou Bai, who had inherited the memory of the future demon, had actively transformed into a white light and integrated into his body.

A large number of memories belonging to the future demon appeared in front of Zhou Bai, allowing him to quickly grasp a lot of knowledge brought by the future demon from another world.

‘For leaving his memory to me so generously, isn’t he afraid that I will surpass him and completely eliminate him? ’

Zhou Bai shook his head. If he were an ordinary Taoist or immortal-level expert, he believed that there would be such a being who would spread his knowledge wantonly out of absolute confidence.

But the future demon...

'If I surpass him, he will join me out of absolute reason. ’

'For him, whether it's himself, me, or Chu Qiguang... as long as someone can go further, as long as the world is closer to perfection, that is something he is happy to see. Who can do this? A little, maybe it doesn't matter to him. ’

In order to prevent the future demon's memory from affecting his personality, Zhou Bai stored these materials and treasures from another world deep in the sea of ​​​​consciousness, becoming a knowledge base and database-like existence.

Allocating part of his mind to digest and sort out the knowledge, Zhou Bai raised his head and looked at the two star clusters in front of him.

He opened his mouth and inhaled, and one of the stars turned into starlight and was integrated into his body.

The main body of Xingqun stared at this scene blankly.

He saw the changes in the scene just now, but he was still confused about what happened. He could only tell that Zhou Bai, who created this virtual world, and Zhou Bai, who used to govern the federation, did not seem to be the same person.

At this moment, when she noticed Zhou Bai's gaze looking over, Xingqun's heart suddenly tightened, not knowing what tricks the other party was going to play.

He suppressed the resentment in his heart and asked cautiously: "Are you Zhou Bai? What do you want to do?"

Zhou Bai sighed and said calmly: "Xingqun, I have been too indulgent towards you all this time."

"But don't worry, in the future the Federation will gradually control the degree of consciousness modification, and humans on Earth in the future will no longer only have kindness in their hearts."

When Xingqun heard these words, his eyes were shocked and he said in surprise: "What did you say?"

Zhou Bai said helplessly: "I have always hoped that humans on earth can embark on a different path from past history, be free from the influence of the dark side of human nature, and gradually become a perfect society."

"But now it seems that I am too impatient and too lazy to allow you to use the method of consciousness transformation to achieve this goal..."

Listening to the other party's reasons, a strong anger surged out of Xingqun's chest: "You are talking nonsense."

"You modify our consciousness and eliminate those parts of human nature that have the courage to fight, self-preservation, and family inheritance. You clearly want to limit human potential."

Xingqun said angrily: "These are all rules you set in order to stabilize your status as a god and to better exploit mortals. You even created such a virtual world to play with our souls wantonly."

Various memories of Xingqun flashed through Zhou Bai's eyes, and he raised his eyebrows slightly: "You have quite a lot of misunderstandings about me, and it seems that they were all guided by that 'Crazy Delirium'."

"Misunderstanding? Do you think we will still believe your nonsense now?" Xingqun sneered: "If you want to deceive me, why don't you just clean my memory and modify my consciousness algorithm? This is not you What you’ve always been best at?”

In the memory of the constellations that Zhou Bai observed, although the other party relied on his own choices to embark on the path of liberating humanity due to circumstances and various historical coincidences, soon after he began to liberate his own humanity, 'Crazy Delirium' Lie Kong' then found the other party.

It can be said that the constellations created the Humanity Faction, which continued to expand its power, eroding and infiltrating all walks of life in the Federation. Crazy Delirium’s false guidance and teachings were indispensable.

But the next moment Zhou Bai shook his head indifferently: "It doesn't matter, whatever you think. Compared with these, the fact that I have neglected the governance of the Federation for many years and allowed human beings to do whatever they want is actually a bigger problem. You and your Humanity Faction are nothing more than the facade exposed."

Seeing Zhou Bai's appearance of not paying much attention to him from beginning to end, Xingqun felt a deep sense of unwillingness in his heart.

And when Zhou Bai said these words, the entire virtual world began to collapse.

Countless consciousnesses that were captured into this world began to return under Zhou Bai's operation, returning to their original places of existence.

The planet in the Federation that was originally a dead zone gradually began to come to life with Zhou Bai's operations, and more and more Federation people woke up.

Everything in the virtual world, as well as the template memories of Chu Qiguang, Zhou Bai, and Taishang, were completely deleted from their consciousness algorithms by Zhou Bai.

Staring at this scene, Xingqun was shocked: "What are you doing?"

Zhou Bai said casually: "Of course, close the virtual world. For the current federation humans, everything here is too... avant-garde, and it is not something you can grasp."

Then he waved his hand, and the two of them seemed to have crossed the distance of countless light years, and directly arrived at the location of the star cluster's body in the material world.

This is a desolate and uninhabited planet on the surface, but inside its crust there are a large number of human bases and various high-tech and high-tech facilities.

This is the secret headquarters of the Humanity Faction, a hidden planet that does not exist in any federal database.

Xingqun suddenly opened his mechanical eyes in the material world and saw that the world around him was falling into a state of stillness. More than a dozen members of the Humanity Sect were standing aside, looking at him like statues.

Xingqun was shocked: "How did he find out my location?!"

But he soon realized that Crazy Delirium's physical location had failed at some point.

Zhou Bai's voice rose in his heart: "You have been given up by crazy delirium, this guy... is really slippery, I originally planned to take him away this time, but in the end I let him run away. "

Xingqun's heart sank suddenly, and a flash of panic flashed through him: 'Has the crazy delirium Lie Kong escaped? ’

At the same time, a new memory was being woven by Zhou Bai.

In this false memory, Xingqun is no longer Xingqun, but a federal agent. He pretends to be Xingqun and comes to the headquarters of the Humanity Faction in order to cooperate with the federal government in dismantling this evil organization.

With the assistance of Future Demon Memory, Zhou Bai made leaps and bounds in his abilities in memory weaving and memory modification.

Although he does not intend to use this ability to govern the federation, he has not given up using such abilities against enemies in combat.

The next moment, Xingqun felt a flash in front of his eyes, and all the scenes had changed dramatically.

The scenery of the Humanity Faction headquarters just now has completely disappeared.

At this moment, he was controlling his biochemical body and sitting in a pure white secret room.

Not only has the scene in front of him changed, but now all memories of the virtual world have been deleted from Xingqun's mind by Zhou Bai.

"What happened? Why am I here?"

Now, his memory still lingers on the moment when he led his companions to search for the missing persons of the Federation.

This sudden change in the world caused a bad premonition to flood Xingqun's mind.

He wanted to connect to the quantum network immediately and inquire about the current situation, but found that he no longer had access to the Internet.

At this moment, he found an e-book in front of him.

He clicked on the screen and found that it was a simple browser. Although it could not perform many services, it also allowed him to simply browse various information in the quantum network.

After some reading, Xingqun realized that to him it was just a moment, but to the world more than a month had passed.

In this month, with his active cooperation, the entire Humanity Faction collapsed, all members were arrested, all assets were confiscated by the federal government, and companies one after another were acquired, taken over, and split up...

As for all members of the Humanity Faction, including him, the leader, they have all been arrested and liquidated one by one.

For example, Xingqun needs to work for the Federation for tens of thousands of years before being executed.

"Impossible! How could I do such a thing!"

"In the end what happened……"

The plan he had prepared for many years failed completely and inexplicably, and his memory was inexplicably missing by a month. Xingqun only felt that all this was extremely absurd and terrifying.

He immediately began to plan a counterattack in his mind: 'The first thing is to escape from here...'

But before Xingqun could continue to think about it, the scene in front of him changed instantly.

The secret room just now disappeared, and he found that he was controlling the Internet browser in the cell, posting rhythmically on other civilized networks, and there were still more than 10,000 pieces of content before the end of today's work.

Seeing this sudden sudden change, a bad premonition came to his mind.

'Could it be...'

Xingqun immediately began to collect information and found that another month had passed. During this month, he was obedient and cooperative in the prison, working more than 23 hours a day. He was selected as a model inmate this month and could enjoy free overtime benefits.

At this moment, Xingqun was shocked and angry. In the following years, he found that whenever he planned to commit crimes, he would immediately lose his mind.

After coming back to his senses, a month often passes. During this month, he will abide by the rules and become a good baby who is good to everyone.

In this case, he had to restrain his thoughts and try his best not to think about illegal things.

The whole process lasted for nearly ten years. Self-denial and constant jumps in time and memory made this journey very painful. It can be said that it is a process in which the stars themselves constantly transform their own thoughts.

And when he finally stopped wandering for two consecutive months, his heart was at peace and he no longer had any thoughts of committing crimes.

But after three months of calm, everything in front of me changed again.

Desperation surged in Xingqun's heart: "I obviously didn't want to commit a crime! Why did I start it again?!"

But the time did not come to a month later, but returned to the source of everything that happened, the moment when Zhou Bai closed the virtual world and Xingqun returned to the headquarters of the Humanity Faction from the virtual world.

At this moment, he has both the memory in the virtual world and the memory of constantly revising his own thoughts in the 'future'.

At the same time, Zhou Bai's voice sounded from the bottom of his heart: "This move is called subduing the enemy without fighting."

"Through the virtual future, I can let my opponent taste the taste of failure before fighting against me."

"What you just experienced is a possible future after failure."

"Now you are the one who has seriously repented after experiencing failure."

"I created this move to eliminate war and maintain peace. Before any opponent starts fighting, he will directly admit his mistake after defeat."

Listening to what Zhou Bai said, a strong fear surged into Xingqun's heart.

Zhou Bai then said: "Now can you cooperate with me and work together to disintegrate the human nature?"

Xingqun quickly agreed, and then he felt a sense of disappointment from Zhou Bai's mouth.

"Aren't you really going to try to resist?"

"Alas, I have made up more than two thousand kinds of 'futures' but I haven't used them..."

…

Just when Zhou Bai was cleaning up the mess in the Federation.

Xia Xing, the Han world is located at the contact point of the material universe.

At this moment, the powerful men who came from the Han world across the void gathered here from all corners of the universe under the call of Chu Qiguang.

As soon as the Indestructible Buddha returned here from the Federation, he inquired about the news about the Han world from Tiansheng Emperor, Xuanyuan Taoist Master and others. Unfortunately, even these top experts knew nothing about it, just because Chu Qiguang had been disconnected Almost all information exchanges between the two worlds.

Regarding this situation, all the powerful men from the Han world felt a sense of worry in their hearts.

Qiao Zhi noticed the atmosphere on Xia Xing and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: 'Oh, this unknown predicament is the most uncomfortable. ’

He turned his head and glanced at Jiaojiao, who was holding her chin motionless not far away. Qiao Zhi thought to herself: 'Even Jiaojiao is no longer as lively as before. The pressure on everyone's hearts is indeed getting heavier and heavier. ’

At this moment, a figure appeared out of thin air, standing in front of Jiaojiao like a phantom.

'This is...' Qiao Zhi was slightly startled when he saw the figure clearly, and became nervous the next moment: 'Yuanshi Tianzun? ’

Jiaojiao had already greeted Zhou Bai obediently: "Hello, Tianzun, I am Chu Qiguang's sister Jiaojiao. I went to find you with my brother last time..."

But he saw Zhou Bai staring at Jiaojiao: "Your name is Jiaojiao, right? You have been recruiting people online recently by pretending to be Taichu Dao Palace, and deceived a lot of people to come to Xia Xing to work?"

Hearing these words, Jiaojiao said innocently: "How is that possible? We are a regular company and do not engage in fraud or kidnapping."

Zhou Bai smiled coldly: "You are playing this trick with me. It seems that Chu Qiguang has never told you how badly he was deceived by me before."

"I will give you a chance now. I am very interested in the business of impersonating Taichu Dao Palace, so I plan to acquire your company."

Jiaojiao's eyes lit up: "How much will you pay?"

Zhou Bai tossed it casually and saw a pile of shit-like black mud being smashed in front of Jiaojiao: "That's it."

This is a derivative of Yuanshi Tianzun, an extraordinary substance known as Guihai Black Evil, which has a certain influence on luck.

Because the quantity is too large, the price is not high. The price of such a lump is about equivalent to about a car of soil.

Jiaojiao said angrily: "You think I'm a beggar when you want to acquire my company? Even if you are Yuanshi Tianzun, my brother won't let you go if you dare to touch me!"

"Tsk." Zhou Bai raised his eyebrows slightly: "That's a lot to ask for."

I saw Zhou Bai walking towards Jiaojiao step by step, and an extremely terrifying aura erupted from his body.

Qiao Zhi, who was not far away, was swept away by this aura, and the whole cat screamed and jumped up. All the cat hair on his body had fallen out, and he looked like he had turned into a white pig.

Jiaojiao was also shocked by this powerful aura in all realms, and her scalp was numb. She shouted tremblingly: "Stop him!"

She saw the puppet Chu Qiguang being thrown out by her, carrying the power enough to capture the sun and the moon and turn the world upside down. It shot towards Zhou Bai like a meteor. It not only caused the stars in the material world to tremble, but also triggered a wave of chaos in the void. Violent fluctuations produced a huge amount of mysterious information.

But Zhou Bai sneered, stretched out his hand and pinched the puppet that was coming towards him. Then he squeezed the puppet into a ball with both hands and threw it on the ground.

Then a lump of Guihai Heisha emerged from his hand. As he walked towards Jiaojiao step by step, he smiled slightly and said, "You might as well let me feed you and eat it."

Jiaojiao looked at Zhou Bai walking step by step with a look of horror on her face. She wanted to move her body...but was suppressed by the other man's breath and couldn't even move a finger.

She exclaimed: "You want to feed me shit?!"

Zhou Bai said angrily: "This is the Black Evil of Guihai. I hate it when others can't tell the difference between it and shit."

Seeing that Guihai Black Devil was about to smear on her face, Jiaojiao couldn't help but close her eyes.

Zhou Bai suddenly stopped and said, "Let's do this. How about you become my disciple?"

Jiaojiao was slightly startled: "Be...become a disciple?"

Zhou Bai said: "If you accept me as your master, you won't need to eat this Guihai Black Demon."

Looking at the black mud in the opponent's palm that was constantly twisting and deforming, like a living thing, Jiao Jiao swallowed: "Master! Please keep this thing away, my disciple is afraid."

Zhou Bai chuckled: "My dear disciple, your brother is right. I have been observing you for a while, and you are somewhat qualified. You can just learn my Taoist skills."

He pointed at the other person's eyebrows: "In the next period of time, don't worry about other things. Try to get started with the Taoist skills I taught you before your brother takes you back to Huangtian World."

Jiaojiao felt a loud bang in his mind, as if there was some connection or a door being opened, and then a gleaming Taoist book appeared in his sea of ​​consciousness.

She looked at the cover of the Taoist Sutra and murmured: "Lying Sutra?"

Seeing Jiaojiao lying on the ground and falling asleep, Zhou Bai nodded with satisfaction, then glanced at Qiao Zhi not far away, smiled slightly and said:

"Don't worry, she's fine, she just needs to get some sleep."

As the terrifying aura on Zhou Bai slowly dissipated, Qiao Zhi gradually relaxed under the other party's active comfort.

At this moment, he also came to his senses. With the relationship between Zhou Bai and Chu Qiguang, the other party should not be harmful to Jiaojiao. What's more, with saint-level methods, if the other party really wants to be harmful to Jiaojiao, then I'm afraid they won't even notice. It's hard to do this.

Just listen to Zhou Bai say: "You remember that you are Chu Qiguang's cat companion, are you interested in coming to the Federation to work for me?"

"I don't allow overtime work here. If you work more than 30 hours a week, you will be asked to talk. The salary level ranks among the top 10,000 in the world. If you work for more than 5 years, you will be rewarded with shares."

Seeing the fluctuation in Qiao Zhi's eyes, Zhou Bai continued: "Do you know why your income has not reached the level of Dao Ancestor?"

"It's because you haven't joined my team yet."

Qiao Zhi was shocked: 'Yuanshi Tianzun values ​​me so much... It seems that my qualifications can be regarded as a genius among geniuses in all the worlds. ’

Zhou Bai reached out and touched Qiao Zhi's cat head, and the other person's originally naked body seemed to have gone back in time and returned to its original state again.

Just listen to Zhou Bai say: "You don't have to make a decision in a hurry. It doesn't matter if you answer me after this war is over."

Looking at Zhou Bai who was about to disappear, Qiao Zhi said quickly: "Wait! Wait a minute!"

Zhou Bai tilted his head: "Huh?"

Qiao Zhi quickly approached Zhou Bai and said with a shy cat face: "Tianzun, can you take a photo with me?"

Qiao Zhi thought that if he could take a photo with Yuanshi Tianzun, he would be able to walk sideways in the Federation in the future.

"It's okay to take pictures, but you'd better not use my photos to trick you into eating or drinking." Zhou Bai said kindly, "Come on, should I hold you, or should you squat on my shoulders?"

After a while, Zhou Bai had already left, leaving Qiao Zhi looking with satisfaction at herself being held in Zhou Bai's arms in the group photo: "Is there any way that everyone can see this group photo of me inadvertently?"

The arrival of Yuanshi Tianzun relieved Qiao Zhi's somewhat tense spirit.

However, as time passed, no one on Xia Star received Chu Qiguang's next order. The atmosphere on the entire planet gradually became anxious as the mood of the strong men changed.

…

In outer space, three figures streaked across the pitch-black vacuum like meteors.

Lei Yushu's whole body was wrapped in dazzling golden light, and her entire figure turned into a Buddha statue with an indestructible body. The flames formed by the fluctuations of energy and blood shook violently around her like the true fire of the sun.

Not far behind Lei Yushu, Jiang Longyu's body was as black as ink, and his aura was even more vague, as if he had completely merged into the vacuum in front of him.

But if a strong person observes deeply, he will be able to see the majestic force like a star core exploding, constantly converging into the long knife in Jiang Longyu's hand.

While Jiang Longyu was accumulating the power of his sword, he stared closely at Lei Yushu who was making a violent attack.

I saw Lei Yushu carrying billowing golden flames and fighting with a weirdo.

The strange man had six hands and two heads, and his whole body was covered in pitch-black bone armor. He was like an alien demon from the depths of the starry sky. Every punch and kick he struck resonated with the void, and a strong demon-dyed pulse erupted.

As the battle intensified, various supernatural powers erupted from the strange man's hand, constantly interfering with natural phenomena such as spiritual intelligence, electromagnetism, light and darkness, gravity, etc.

This weirdo is the descendant of the Son of Emperor Tian. Relying on the bloodline of the Sky Evolution Beast and the technology of the Aberration Empire, his strength in the material world has greatly increased.

Thinking back on his past experiences, Emperor Tianzi often felt a sense of joy in his heart.

Although he was defeated by Chu Qiguang after attacking Shuzhou, he became an experimental subject of the Qi and Blood Workshop for decades, experienced countless cruel experiments, and was drained by Chu Qiguang. Every bit of utilization value has been worked continuously for twenty years without a break.

But looking back now, Huangtian's son is only glad that he didn't resist randomly and finally got over it.

Although he is not yet completely free, his salary is only one-tenth of that of a powerful person of the same level. His authority on the Qi-Blood Network and the Gate of Wonders is also very low, and he can only use the most basic functions. But the hope for the future is already unfolding before us.

Compared to the days when he was a slave and a beast in the Huangtian world, he is now able to learn knowledge from all walks of life, use the resources of the three major cosmic forces: the Federation, the Void Palace, and the Aberration Empire, and can also pass various Investing in accelerating one's own practice, these days of constantly expanding one's upper limit and potential are filled with much more expectations and happiness than in the past.

And as long as he passes Chu Qiguang's internship inspection in a hundred years, he can be converted into a full-time employee, and his salary will be improved again.

The son of Emperor Tian thought that he might have the opportunity to touch Daozu's side.

For the Son of Heaven, good times are yet to come. The only thing that worries him is that Taichu Dao Palace is causing trouble everywhere in the world, which has brought a crisis to his future.

And his previous experience of serving Huangtian has become black history in his opinion.

In order to cut off the past, he directly changed his name to Chu Qiguang, using the Chinese character Tian.

He would get angry with anyone who called him by his previous name, showing that he hated Huangtian and Taichu Daogong more than anyone else.

At this moment, under the fierce attack of Chu Tian (son of Huang Tian), Lei Yushu was completely at a disadvantage, but he still blocked all the opponent's attacks with his indestructible body.

The son of Emperor Tian pointed out, and the abnormal power of the aberration exploded. The terrifying gravity that was enough to tear apart the space knocked Lei Yushu thousands of kilometers away in one breath.

Then his physical body crossed the void and appeared behind Jiang Longyu in an instant.

Jiang Longyu's energy and blood surged all over his body, and an earth-shattering sword light swept towards the son of Emperor Tian like the Milky Way pouring out.

After the terrifying sword flash, the son of Emperor Tian looked at his half-remaining body, which was struggling to regenerate. A thought had already swept out: "It is indeed the "Heavenly Sword" method of Shenyou realm. Even if you let go with this sword, He can be called famous among all the heavens and worlds."

Jiang Longyu felt the fluctuations of his vitality and blood being violently consumed, and then looked at the opponent's body that had almost completely regenerated. He said proudly: "Being able to take my sword without dying is enough for you to become famous all over the world."

The son of Emperor Tian laughed wildly: "This is the immortal flesh and blood obtained by the aberration empire's evolution and research and development in thousands of years of war. After combined with the Taoism of the Tribulation Sect, it has the ability to adapt to the environment and the ability to withstand strikes in battle. The regeneration ability has far surpassed that of all aberrations, do you want to admit defeat?"

At this moment, Lei Yushu rushed over like a meteor, and the sun-like energy and blood fluctuations collided hard with the immortal flesh and blood of Huangtian's son.

Both Jiang Longyu and Huangtian's son could feel a cold fighting spirit sweeping over them.

Lei Yushu: "Continue."

Jiang Longyu watched Lei Yushu and Huangtian's son rolling and fighting together again, and he squatted not far away to recover his energy and blood, accumulate sword power, and look for opportunities.

‘It’s just a discussion, is there any need to fight so hard? This woman is really getting more and more reckless. ’

'But I seem to be a little anxious recently. Why hasn't news about Chu Qiguang come yet? ’

Just after the three of them fought in the outer space for several days, the son of Emperor Tian suddenly focused his eyes, dodged several times in succession, and covered a distance of tens of thousands of kilometers in the blink of an eye, and then punched hard.

Invisible power surged out from the vacuum, and a spaceship filled with Taoist spiritual light was shot out of the darkness.

"Are you from Taichu Dao Palace again?"

In the past few months, some minions from Taichu Dao Palace often approached Xia Xing, seeming to be exploring something.

At first, these people only conducted observations from a very long distance, but it seems that they have not been countered for a long time. Recently, these people have become more and more unscrupulous and began to observe Xia Xing at close range again and again.

Today, they came directly to the battlefield where Jiang Longyu and the others were competing.

A few palms blasted the spacecraft to pieces, and the swollen flesh and blood turned into a sub-body and rushed into the spacecraft.

Chu Tian said with emotion: "Oh, I thought back then I was the one who fought against Tianzun. The fight turned upside down and the sun and the moon dimmed. It took Tianzun himself to take action to subdue me."

"And now I'm dealing with you bastards."

At this moment, a grand idea spread rapidly through the vacuum, instantly sweeping across the bodies of Lei Yushu, Jiang Longyu and Chu Tian.

"Get ready to go home."

Lei Yushu's eyes moved: "It's the master!"

Jiang Longyu's heart moved slightly: "Is it finally going to start?"

At the same time, the strong men from all over the Xia Star gathered together under Chu Qiguang's call and began to abandon their physical bodies in the main universe and return their consciousness to their hometown.

…

Li Yaofeng slowly opened his eyes, and the scene on the sixteenth level of the Buddhist world came into view.

The twisted space, the grand ceremony, the complicated energy and blood network, and the endless group of living corpses, everything seemed to be no different from what happened when they left.

But Li Yaofeng knew that things could never be that simple. The main universe had been turned upside down because of the fight between the Three Saints and Ji Wufan, and it was naturally impossible for nothing to happen in the Han world.

I saw a flash of red light in his body, and he was connected to the Qi and blood network of the Han world through Qi and blood fluctuations.

A massive amount of information was pouring in. Although it was incomparable to the all-encompassing and almost omnipresent quantum network of the Federation, compared with when Li Yaofeng left, the energy and blood network in the Han world was now extremely prosperous.

In addition to the original most important content such as the Gate of Wonders, Qi Blood Machine Control, and Imperial Government Decree, a large amount of private information is constantly circulating in it, and various private platforms emerge one after another.

There are various newspapers, forums, and martial arts schools for publicity, consultation, and knowledge dissemination.

There are also many theaters, photo studios, martial arts venues and other platforms purely for entertainment.

Some platforms involving trade and commodity economy have been built.

Moreover, most platforms have already accepted the settlement and transaction of Chu coins. The circulation of Chu coins in the Han world is more developed than in many worlds.

Obviously, as batches of masters like Li Yaofeng went to all the worlds to dig up knowledge, the world of the Han Dynasty once again experienced earth-shaking changes.

However, he only had a general overview of the development of the Han world, and then began to check the important news in recent months.

"Donglong Expressway was officially opened to traffic last month. As the world's first bone-blood mixed expressway, the project starts from Siming County, Shangyuan Prefecture, Donghai Prefecture, and ends in Longgong West District, with a total length of 6,200 kilometers..."

"The second phase of key projects of the New City of Ten Thousand Buddhas has officially started, including Taoist Temple City, Martial Arts Center, and Future Smart City Experience Center. It is the first batch of market-oriented projects to be withdrawn from the New City of Ten Thousand Buddhas..."

"In order to cope with the rapid growth of population in major cities, Shenjing City will launch a multi-layered city pilot development, superimposing the Buddhist space on the physical space of Shenjing City, which is expected to increase the land area by more than 500 square kilometers every year..."

Huge amounts of information kept flashing in front of Li Yaofeng, but what surprised him was... Judging from the information he obtained on various platforms, the entire Han world was booming, and martial arts, Taoism, and related qi and blood Technology is advancing by leaps and bounds, and knowledge from all over the world can be seen being absorbed into it everywhere.

"This doesn't look like a big war is going to happen at all."

Li Yaofeng even went to collect information about the coming of the emperor, and found that although some people mentioned it, no one cared about it. Even in many people's perception... the arrival of the emperor had already happened and was over.

The Tiansheng Emperor who had just woken up beside him said: "Chu Qiguang called us here just for the battle with Taichu Dao Palace. Logically speaking, the arrival of the emperor should not have happened yet. Could it be that something went wrong? "

Taoist Master Xuanyuan on the other side collected information faster, and even directly crossed the Buddhist world with his thoughts and sensed the situation in the material world.

He said incredulously: "Look outside..."

Everyone present is a being who stands at the top of the Han world, and each one is very powerful. At this moment, after hearing the prompts from Taoist Master Xuanyuan, they immediately showed off their magical powers and began to explore the situation in the outside world.

Then he saw a huge yellow moon hanging high in the sky under the sun. The faint yellow light was mixed with the sunlight and shrouded the sky and the earth, seeming to dye the whole world with a thick layer of yellow.

"In the end what happened?"

"Is that the Xuanhuang World?"

"Judging from this position, he is already surrounding us in outer space, right?"

"Where is Chu Qiguang? Why can't I contact him?"

Just as everyone was shocked to perceive this scene, one of the managers of the sixteenth level of the Buddhist world, the Celestial Dao Ancestor from the Immortal Dao, slowly walked out.

"Everyone, Emperor Tian has arrived, and our efforts have failed after all."

"But we still have a chance..."

As he spoke, two boundless and powerful wills descended from the sky, crossed the infinitely distant void, and forced their way into this world.

The two powerful forces representing Taishang Tianzun and Yuanshi Tianzun slowly descended and gradually turned into two figures and fell in front of everyone.
