Chapter 588: Chapter 404: Turns out I am a remnant of the former dynasty!_2
Of course.
If his determination had not been strong enough just now, perhaps he really would have become a part of the starry sky in the Dark Universe of the Real World.
“I have already transformed into Origin Power, so how should I move?”
Xuanqing thought to himself.
But just as he had this thought.
Suddenly.
A terrifying sense of fatal crisis appeared in his heart, as if he would completely cease to exist if he really moved.
This feeling came very suddenly, but he was certain that if he really moved, he would certainly die, and his death would be utterly complete.
“What is going on?”
Xuanqing was puzzled in his heart.
But no matter how puzzled he was, there was no one to answer him, after all, both the Immortal Cultivation Game Login Device and his physical body had already returned to the Origin of the Universe.
Moments later.
“Let’s sift through the Origin of the Universe to see if there is any information left over by the previous Origin of the Universe regarding this matter!”
Xuanqing closed his eyes, immersing himself in the information left behind by the Origin.
It was a very strange feeling.
Even though he had already become the Origin, presenting a state like a starry sky, he could still ‘close his eyes’ just like he could with a physical body, and even concentrate his mental energy.
…
Moments later.
“Found it!”
Xuanqing’s expression was somewhat surprised and uncertain.
He had found the source of the ‘hair-raising’ feeling he had felt earlier, but the reason for it was somewhat hard for him to accept.
The reason for that hair-raising sensation of ‘dying upon moving’ was related to his current state.
He had already fully integrated with the ‘Origin of the Universe’; the Origin of the Universe was him, and he was the Origin of the Dark Universe.
However.
This Origin of the Universe was from the ‘previous dynasty,’ yet he was living in the Dark Universe of the present.
What did that mean?
To give the simplest example.
Xuanqing’s current situation in a feudal empire would be like a remnant of the previous dynasty, who by chance had survived into the current dynasty after the collapse of the former.
In such a case, if he hid well, naturally nothing would happen.
But once exposed, the court of the current dynasty would not allow such a remnant of the previous dynasty to exist, and would certainly mobilize all forces to exterminate this remnant of the previous dynasty.
“So does this mean that I am now a remnant of the previous dynasty, and if exposed, I will be obliterated by the entire Dark Realm?”
Xuanqing felt a slight panic in his heart.
It should be noted.
This was not the will of a small world’s Heaven and Earth, nor a Perpetual Star, but the entire world of the Dark Universe.
However,
he quickly calmed down.
Because… ever since he had obtained the Immortal Cultivation Game Login Device, so much time had passed, and he had not yet been exposed.
Presumably, as long as he did not actively seek death, there should be no problem.
With this in mind.
Xuanqing temporarily set aside his concerns.
“It seems that I will have to be even more careful in the Real World from now on, I, this little remnant of the previous dynasty, must not be detected by the Origin of the Universe of the Real World, or else…”
“Let’s see how humanity in the Bluewater Realm is doing,” Xuanqing muttered softly.
Even though he, once again, was no longer a person, having become the Origin of the Universe and even the Origin from the previous dynasty.
Yet in his heart, he still considered himself to be human and wouldn’t deny his inner identity just because of a change in form.
…..
The Bluewater Realm!
At this moment, there were no changes in the Bluewater Realm.
Even though Xuanqing’s physical body had undergone another change, having just condensed the Chaos Shell, it had become the Origin of the Universe directly due to the Login Device.
But the Bluewater Realm was still the Bluewater Realm, only the geographical location of the Bluewater Realm had changed.
If it could be said that before, no matter how the Bluewater Realm changed, its location was always in the starry sky of the Dark Universe.
Now, the Bluewater Realm had been stripped from the reality of the Dark Realm.
The Solar System and its starry sky remained the same, but they no longer belonged to the Universe; rather, they belonged to Xuanqing, the Origin of the former Universe.
After obtaining this result,
he finally set his mind at ease.
“It also means, as long as the Origin of the Universe from the Real World doesn’t discover me… neither Bluewater Realm nor I will face any issues!”
Xuanqing came to a conclusion about the situation.
…
After sorting out his safety issues, he began to ponder the changes to his Game Login Device.
The Login Device had now transformed into the Origin, and the original Character Panel, as well as the so-called recharge system, didn’t matter anymore.
“However… keeping the Origin in the form of the Login Device does seem more familiar and comfortable!”
Xuanqing muttered softly to himself.
Thinking this, he silently commanded in his mind, “Revert to the original form of the Login Device!”
[Beep… Restored!]
[A Friendly Reminder: Master, you are now in control of the Origin. Please be careful not to be detected by the Dark Universe’s Origin of the Universe. Do not use your real body for movements, devouring… and other actions!]
Listening to the prompt from the Game Login Device echoing in his mind and the situation reverted back.
Xuanqing’s lips curled up slightly.
As expected.
He felt more comfortable in this state; having everything figured out for oneself would be truly tiring indeed.
“Query, have there been any changes to the game character?” Xuanqing silently thought.
[Searching… Answer: The essence of the game character is your projection, Master. It is formed by the power of the Origin and possesses a characteristic of 100% energy recovery.]
A hundred percent energy recovery?
Xuanqing pondered slightly.
And then.
He had an epiphany.
No wonder, no matter how he died in the Game, even if he detonated his God Soul, after resurrecting, there were no losses whatsoever.
Even… if equipment and Magic Treasures were put into the Game Backpack, they wouldn’t fall out upon death and resurrection.
All this was because the so-called game character was merely a projection sent out by the previous Universe’s Origin.
“In a certain sense, I am now somewhat similar to Hong Jun,” Xuanqing suddenly murmured.
However.
After Hong Jun merged himself into the Heavenly Path of the Primordial World, he was still affected by the obsession of Pangu, who perished while opening up the world, eventually turning into a being that was ‘half Pangu’ and ‘half Hong Jun’.
Xuanqing, on the other hand, had merged with the former Universe’s Origin, and he had withstood the erosion of the Universe’s Origin.
More precisely, it was because the Dark Universe had died of expended Lifespan, self-destructing without a trace of life left.
This was what gave Xuanqing the advantage.
It was different with the Primordial World.
Although Pangu perished and dissipated after creating the Primordial World due to the sneak attack by the Three Thousand Demon Gods,
Pangu’s Physical Body, along with a thread of obsession, remained, and his body even became part of the world.
This led to Pangu having an extraordinary influence on the Primordial World even after his death.
In contrast, the death of the Universe’s Origin was different; it was a normal demise due to entropy increase and exhaustion of lifespan, leaving behind only a weak trace of the Origin, and nothing else.
In such a case, Xuanqing did not end up like Hong Jun.
Having understood all this,
Xuanqing felt fortunate in his heart.
He indeed picked up a huge bargain. He had inherited the wealth left behind after the former Universe’s Origin died from increased entropy.
Now, what he needed to do was to strengthen the trace of the Origin he had turned into.
One day, he might completely consume and replace the Real World’s Dark Universe’s Origin.
Though the task was challenging indeed!!
“To continue to grow in the Endless Chaos, simply relying on hiding is not enough; I will inevitably be discovered one day!”
“Only by becoming more powerful can I protect myself if the Universe’s Origin discovers me in the future, and possibly… even replace the current era with that of the past!”
A hint of sharpness flickered in Xuanqing’s eyes.
Of course.
Given that he was now in the state of Origin, this `sharpness` was just an imagined concept.
“Enter the Game!”
[Beep… Projecting the Origin…]
…
…..
The Endless Chaos World.
The Northern Galaxy Domain!
