Chapter 419: Vol6 Ch7: Omens of resurrection
Translator: La0o9
These thoughts only surfaced for a brief moment before he buried them deep into his mind again. Even if he successfully manifested a Pathway of Manipulation, he was still too far away from opposing the original manipulator.
There might exist an ent.i.ty who fully wielded a Truth of the universe, but it wouldn’t be that original manipulator, because Negary wouldn’t have been able to manifest any corresponding Pathway in that case. In other words, that original manipulator might have the absolute advantage, but they still hadn’t obtained the total victory.
After putting a portion of the collapsed pathway under his control, Negary’s consciousness focused to gradually comprehend the essence of Red Tears’ existence.
Sentient phenomena were lifeforms that were born within a certain phenomenon, in a sense, they represented that phenomenon, so it would be very easy for them to manifest a Pathway corresponding to that phenomenon.
Red Tears was like this, as she was created during a wrongly performed ritual intertwined with the mortal concept of infidelity, resulting in her quickly being able to realize her essence as irregularities within the human soul.
The souls of humans would change in accordance to the information that they received, which included emotions; in the beginning, Negary had also relied on especially strong emotions to stimulate his soul and change himself.
The changes in an individual’s soul represented alterations in that individual. As long as an individual had a soul, they would gradually change, which was a presentation of the foundational rules of the universe, the only difference was the speed at which this occurred.
This was why a soul would eventually die, representing the fact that the universe would one day reach maximum entropy.
This fact could be recognized through ma.s.s a.n.a.lysis of a world’s information from micro to macro data. For many Pathway Ent.i.ties, this wasn’t a secret.
This was similar to how humans were feeble and weak, but even normal people were able to observe the bigger picture of the universe through its radiation and discover that the universe had been expanding for 13.82 billion years.
Negary had mapped out and a.n.a.lyzed information of several worlds combined with his comprehension of the power of Impurity, which allowed him to observe some public information about this current grand universe.
For example, the fact that the universe was currently very ‘young’, so it was currently much easier to become a Pathway Ent.i.ty on the order side compared to becoming a Pathway Ent.i.ty on the side of chaos. It also meant that there were still many Truths in the universe that hadn’t gotten a wielder, but as the universe continued to develop and entropy continued to increase, the entire universe would eventually collapse and fall to chaos.
At that time, the universe would be destroyed, perhaps one day a new universe would come into existence and become the next Universal Era.
This information was ‘public’ as anyone who wanted to look would easily discover them, but this was only the case because it would be a long time until the end of the universe. By the epilogue of the universe, this information might be hidden by certain individuals to deceive newcomers into becoming fodder. For example, the bigshots might make the fodder take over their Pathways and die with the universe while they somehow escaped.
This was especially the case for those on the side of order. It could very easily be deduced that almost every Pathway within the side of order would be destroyed following the collapse of the universe, while there was a small possibility of the side of chaos to survive until the next Universal Era.
Similarly, while Negary could clearly see this information out in the open, they were still too far away for him to do anything about it. To be frank, unless he reached a certain level first, he might not even survive to the day that the chaos side started to gain an advantage.
The greatest harvest Negary obtained from Red Tears wasn’t the fragments of her Pathway, but rather her existence as a sentient phenomenon.
In the past, Negary had comprehended the face of G.o.d from the iron bone fried rice in the SCR world, by linking his existence with everyone’s will to seek a more perfect self, he would more easily stimulate the creation of a ‘Negary’ personality in them.
For example, both Shengnai and Guangnai were clones of Negary that were born from stimulating the original’s will to become better through any means necessary.
From that point, Negary had already started to become a bit like a sentient phenomenon, being connected to the will of becoming the most perfect one could. Of course, this connection was still very weak, as it required Negary’s active attention to manifest, unlike Red Tears who could turn any female individual with a certain degree of irregularity in their souls into a part of herself, as long as they were within her Pathway.
If Red Tears had completely taken on the Pathway of Irregularity, all the souls within the universe would come under her control, while her existence itself would become a driving universal force and phenomenon.
Unfortunately, she no longer had that chance. After researching her form of existence, Negary discovered that a sentient phenomenon wasn’t actually the phenomenon itself. While they were lifeforms derived from a phenomenon, their existence and life had only gained an extreme level of correlation to that phenomenon through a unique connection.
From this, Negary saw a way for him to further improve himself. Taking advantage of this opportunity when all of his viruses had been destroyed with only his consciousness remaining, he wanted to further upgrade his viral body, converting it into a super virus that encompa.s.sed a soul, virus, and the concept of virus.
〖 And so, the first step is the appearance of a large-scale corresponding phenomenon 〗
Negary’s consciousness gradually expanded outwards. One of the reasons he had spread his information into the sea of life of this world was because of this decision.
In the past, while compet.i.tion had always been required to survive in the Desolate Sacrifice world, the general trend was the Desolate race being at the top of the food chain. While there was still compet.i.tion between the tribes, the frequency and degree of such compet.i.tions had gradually become less harsh.
Negary’s interference in this world had led to the modification of a portion of Desolates, which were both stronger and more talented compared to normal Desolates, even their personalities were more radical. Under Negary’s summon, they had gathered below the flag of the Impure Hermit Order and became this world’s Demon race.
The intense pressure of survival pressed down on every living being of this world, oppressing them to the point that it felt suffocating, forcing them to risk everything they had for the sake of survival. There had always only ever been a single method for survival, which was to break through one’s limit and become more compet.i.tive, if one became stagnant and was unable to improve, one could only die.
After 10 years of change, the entirety of the Desolate Sacrifice world had been dyed within this atmosphere. The newest generation of Desolates as well as other races had been taught that they could only continue living by becoming stronger and more perfect ever since they were young.
Since the prerequisites had been fulfilled, Negary could now perform the first steps of resurrecting himself.
And so, from the aspect of gloom, countless eyes began to open. Meanwhile, in the normal world, some people with Totems slowly began to float, an eye slowly manifested within their different Totems, causing them to appear almost like they were coming to life.
In the past, Red Tears had had the experience of becoming the Totem of a world, which Negary was able to read about within the large portion of information that she had given up to him. While the Totems here weren’t the same as the kind of Totem she had become, there were still similarities. Negary only had to modify a bit of what belonged to Red Tears in order to conduct a corresponding experiment in this world.
…
At another location, Meng 37 slowly opened his eyes again. The Cede had begun to flow around his back to depict a Totem, which appeared exactly the same as the Totem of the Warrior who came to pursue him; after all, the vision of the Ancestral Wild he had witnessed through the ritual was the same one the Warrior from before had witnessed.
The only difference was that the Totem on Meng 37’s back had an eye-looking pattern, which contained both hatred and the unwillingness to let go, which had now manifested behind Meng 37 to stare straight at him.
