Chapter 617: Chapter 350: Identity and Abnormal Change_2
Having said that,
Chen Sheng made his way into the Martial Arts Association.
“Let’s get the orders out first.”
Regarding this,
Li Wuji had no objections.
He gave everyone a reassuring look.
Li Wuji closely followed Chen Sheng, and the two of them headed toward the inner part of the Martial Arts Association.
Behind them,
the crowd exchanged glances.
But after so many years of tacit understanding, they still chose to trust Li Wuji.
Soon,
everyone dispersed.
Chen Sheng, on the other hand, went deeper in.
As they walked,
he noticed that the air around Chen Sheng seemed to be slightly distorted.
Not only that,
his figure seemed to be constantly changing…
Step.
As he was pondering,
their footsteps settled.
They had reached Li Wuji’s office.
Upon entering the room,
“He is the World Consciousness.”
“The overall concept is quite complicated.”
“In his own words, he is the collective consciousness of humans.”
Facing Li Wuji’s puzzled gaze,
Chen Sheng introduced the identity of the World Consciousness and began to relay the information he had learned from the World Consciousness to Li Wuji.
A few minutes later,
Huh?
From the moment Chen Sheng introduced the identity,
the astonishment on Li Wuji’s face had not faded.
And as the story went deeper, it became even more intense.
Too many of the concepts in Chen Sheng’s words were ones he had never come across before.
Li Wuji looked at the World Consciousness in Chen Sheng’s hand, who appeared to be submissive.
The grand collective consciousness of humanity, which could be said to control the rules of the world,
was being held in Chen Sheng’s hand like a little chicken.
No matter how he looked at it,
he felt it was very discordant.
“…The Heavenly Beings’ King, who absorbed all Origin Power, should have become an omnipotent god.”
“But because the World Consciousness once separated the World Core from the real world, the rules of the two realms are not the same and cannot influence each other.”
“Even with the Origin Power, the Heavenly Beings’ King has nowhere to show off his skills and can’t even have much influence on the real world.”
“But the prohibition won’t last for long.”
“The anomaly in the sky means the Heavenly Beings’ King is opening up the passage between the two realms.”
“In just a few hours, the two worlds will reconnect.”
“The power of the Heavenly Beings’ King will also… ”
Chen Sheng didn’t finish his sentence.
But Li Wuji understood his meaning.
“….”
At this moment,
Even though he claimed to have weathered many storms,
Li Wuji couldn’t help but feel a sense of powerlessness deep inside.
Gods…
With their current power, how could they fight against them?
Over tens of thousands of years,
Homo sapiens once believed in their own resistance against the Heavenly People.
It was only because the Heavenly Beings’ King had issued an order that the other Heavenly People did not exterminate them, allowing humans to survive until now.
Now,
Facing countless second- and third-generation Heavenly People,
As well as the first-generation Heavenly People and Heavenly Beings’ King who were completely beyond the reach of humans.
Where should they go…and what should they do?
Should they hide in underground shelters and wait to die?
Or should they expect Chen Sheng to resist the entire Heavenly People clan with his own power?
Even if Chen Sheng could,
But with their level of power,
After the battle,
Would any humans really be able to survive on this planet?
Li Wuji sat in the chair.
An expression that had never been seen before appeared on his face.
It was neither fear nor despair.
It was confusion.
Confusion about the future of humanity.
The current situation has already far surpassed the scope of what humans can change.
“Alright.”
“Now you can go do what you need to do.”
It wasn’t until Chen Sheng’s voice rang out again,
That Li Wuji woke up from his reverie.
“What I need to do?”
His eyes gradually regained their focus, and a hint of confusion appeared on his face.
Wasn’t this already a dead end?
What else was there for him to do?
“Protect the common people.”
“Including yourself, try to take shelter as much as possible.”
Chen Sheng said matter-of-factly.
“Then wait for my message.”
Huh?
Li Wuji subconsciously thought that the other party was comforting him.
But when he met Chen Sheng’s eyes,
It wasn’t a strained determination.
It wasn’t a false sense of grandiosity.
It was the matter-of-factness of stating an established fact.
As always.
“….”
He did not ask any more questions.
It seemed as if Chen Sheng’s influence,
Or perhaps, he had figured it out for himself.
After a brief silence,
The confusion faded.
Li Wuji slowly got up, and his gaze regained its determination.
“I understand.”
He looked at Chen Sheng.
They nodded at each other.
Everything was left unsaid.
Step.
Step.
The steady and calm footsteps gradually faded.
Until Li Wuji’s figure disappeared from sight,
Chen Sheng retracted his gaze.
He made his way to the tea table by himself.
Boiling water.
Tearing tea leaves.
Steeping tea.
During the process,
Chen Sheng’s figure underwent countless changes.
One moment he was hunched over,
Another moment, he was burly.
An indistinct aura surrounded him,
Even the air was constantly distorted due to the influence of his power.
For Chen Sheng now, cultivation was not limited to form.
From the moment he accomplished the Third Realm of the Holy Scripture of Withering and Flourishing,
Whether it was traveling or talking,
Chen Sheng never stopped replenishing his in-body power.
Up till now,
A total of one thousand units of strength, he had already replenished more than half.
When they are replenished,
He should go and do what he needs to do.
“Your approach is correct.”
At this time,
The World Consciousness, who had been silent all along, sat in front of Chen Sheng.
“Instead of letting them perish in fear and despair,
“It’s better to let them spend their final moments in peace.”
As they spoke,
Although the World Consciousness still maintained its foggy form,
Chen Sheng could clearly feel the appreciation in the gaze cast from within the fog.
