Ascending the Heavens as an Evil God

Gu Nan's research on the Origin World progressed by leaps and bounds ever since he captured Molag.

This was especially true compared to Daoist Yellow Springs—tens of thousands of years of research and observation might not even be as useful as Gu Nan's few hours of experiments.

Of course, this could only illustrate one truth: actual practice is the sole criterion for judging truth.

With such a half-baked idea, Gu Nan quickly descended to the core of the Myriad Heavens, the Inner World created by the second-generation Saint.

The Inner World was a very special existence. It was an artificial construct whose purpose was to serve the entire Myriad Heavens.

There was an even more special fellow in the Inner World. That was the woman who also came from the Origin World but had her consciousness erased, remaining here as a puppet.

"Welcome back, my King," Zero's voice was the same as before, as if it would not change in tens of thousands of years.

Gu Nan raised his head and wordlessly looked at the glowing blue figure. He just calmly walked up to her and slowly poured a bottle of liquid into Zero's body.

This was naturally the mixed Origin World’s origin.

As a world origin, the Origin World’s origin didn’t seem that much different from the outside world’s. Moreover, the only difference was the specific ratio; it was still within the substance area code for world origins.

But after it was applied to a transmigrator like Zero, strange changes occurred.

Zero's originally blue body glowed with silver light, and it seemed that some kind of ability was acting beyond her control, producing unexpected effects.

"Absorbing energy… Absorbing energy… Charging complete. The system is activating," a voice rang out in Zero's head.

"Is this… a system?" Gu Nan couldn't help laughing as he watched the silver light finally dim. With Gu Nan's current realm, the system's voice naturally couldn’t be hidden from him.

But even though the system was activated, Zero still didn't regain her consciousness. She just looked at Gu Nan again. "I will follow your orders, King."

"Detecting that the host's consciousness has been damaged. Do you want to repair it?" The system's voice sounded again, but Zero seemed like she didn’t hear it.

"Answer yes," Gu Nan made the decision for Zero.

"Yes."

"Command confirmed. System is repairing the host’s consciousness… Insufficient energy, repair failed."

When Gu Nan heard this, he immediately poured two more test tubes in.

He had nothing to worry about. With his current strength, he didn’t fear anyone at all, and only he knew the ratio of the Origin World’s origin.

"System is repairing the host’s consciousness… System is repairing the host’s consciousness… Repair successful!" After a while, a different voice finally came.

Zero’s blue energy body suddenly turned solid, becoming a real human. Her dull eyes also turned quick-witted, regarding Gu Nan warily.

"Who are you? Where am I?"

Gu Nan smiled at her. "Do you still remember who you are?"

Zero opened her mouth as if to say something, but no words came out. Finally, she shook her head in distress.

The so-called system repair was more like formatting her entire person.

"Come with me." Gu Nan shook his head and swept Zero away without another word, taking her to the lab.

A moment later, Zero also suffered the same fate as Molag. Her body was completely immobilized and connected to a wide range of instruments. The changes in her body were faithfully displayed on the screen.

"It’s very similar to the first experimental subject, My Lord," the researcher said excitedly. He had never seen such a strange situation before.

Two completely different people, but with similar and powerful abilities.

Compared to Molag, Zero's abilities were undoubtedly more comprehensive and powerful. The system on her body could perform any operation on her body and even forcibly upgrade it.

From their observations, this ability undoubtedly belonged to Zero herself, and the system was more like a product of her own imagination. At the same time, it was also the format by which this ability displayed itself.

During the experiment, through the injection of origin No. 059812, Zero's own genes could even be changed, turning her from a human into a beast, and then back again.

Of course, she could also perfectly transform into someone else.

‘In a sense, all of these transmigrators are actually the same type of mental patient,’ Gu Nan concluded.

But he knew that he did not belong to this category—because the Evil God Temple really did exist. It even had the ability to create things out of thin air; the equipment he used in earlier years was not fake.

‘But I also came from the Origin World, so what's the difference between me and these transmigrators?’ Gu Nan frowned again in thought.

He did not doubt the origin of his soul. Not only because of his memory, but also because his body was affected by his soul, causing his current appearance to actually approach that of his previous life.

These details all proved that Gu Nan's soul really did come from Earth, but he did not have a transmigrator’s characteristics. To put it another way, the characteristics of a transmigrator that originally should have belonged to him instead appeared on the Evil God Temple.

"Continue supplying her with origin." Gu Nan had some conjectures, though they weren’t verified yet. "Adjust her body’s composition to laws."

"Yes!" the researcher responded vigorously. He knew what he was doing—he could very well be witnessing the first man-made Unified Dao cultivator!

……

"He took Zero away." Yu Lian's voice sounded a little heavy, "What exactly do you guys want to do?"

Sitting in front of her was Jiu Po, a figure who stood at the top of the Myriad Heavens for a long time. At this time, his face looked a little lonely.

"Previously, we wanted to find a place." Jiu Po smiled helplessly. "But now, not even I know what he wants."

Even though they watched Gu Nan grow into a behemoth at an incredible speed, no one thought he could surpass them, not even Jiu Po himself.

People would always make mistakes when they were also a piece on the board.

Unfortunately, they didn’t have much time to respond. In just the blink of an eye, Gu Nan was already invincible.

Yu Lian was quiet for a while. "It's not without reason that he wants Song Fei to make a defensive weapon."

They were all familiar with Gu Nan's style. If it wasn't out of necessity, Gu Nan wouldn't stop at all, let alone require any defensive magic weapon.

The fact that Gu Nan started thinking about defense meant he now had a fatal flaw.

Jiu Po glanced at her. "You want to strike first?"

"This is self-defense!" Yu Lian slammed her hand into the table. "He’s a lunatic! If we don't kill him, we’ll all die at his hands sooner or later!"

She regretted not believing the Evil God story when Austin came to her door back then.

Of course, it wasn’t that she didn’t believe in the Evil God's cruelty and bloodthirst. Rather, she didn’t believe in the Evil God's power. Anyone who could walk to Unified Dao would think the same.

But now that the facts were before her eyes, she couldn't help but believe it.

Jiu Po stood up and slowly left without expressing his attitude.

"If you lose, you’ll die. Have you made up your mind?" His voice reached Yu Lian's ears.

Yu Lian's gaze was calm. "At the very least, I need to try."
