Chapter 196: Ancient Warship, Lost Civilization ‘s Al

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Nuwa became lost in her memories:

“They could manipulate elements with their minds or tear apart mechas with their physical bodies, possessing abilities far beyond ordinary humans. Many people referred to this change as the ‘Resurgence of Spiritual Energy.”‘

“They thought a new era was beginning, but in reality, it was Xi Huang’s malice.”

“Xi Huang infused His power into the real world, altering human cognition and casting His influence over everyone’s mental state.”

“From that day on, all of humanity was trapped in a ‘brain in a vat’ scenario, where nothing they saw or felt was real anymore.”

‘He made the factions advocating for the resurgence of spiritual energy and the conservative technology factions fight each other, like watching two insects tear each other apart.’

“The entire civilization was engulfed in flames of war and killings everywhere, until finally, Xi Huang descended into this world and cruelly revealed the truth.”

“To Him, this was an experiment. Humanity was selfish and incredibly foolish, lacking even the ability to discern truth from falsehood, unworthy of existing in a universe where He resided.”

“What happened then… How did you ultimately win?” Cheng Lingzhu asked.

Nuwa shook her head and replied, “We didn’t win.”

“When Xi Huang revealed Himself, all humans in the universe were annihilated, leaving only one million people who were driven to our mother planet.”

“These one million were specially left behind by Him, because on that day, He created a new race.”

“In Xi Huang’s view, the old humans were created by the old Heavenly Dao, and since He was more powerful than the old Heavenly Dao, the new humans He created were naturally stronger.”

“He erased all of the old humans’ civilization and wisdom, giving us enough time to start from scratch and evolve alongside the new humans on another planet, starting from the same starting line.”

“After countless millennia, the old humans, who had once lived primitively, re-entered space and naturally encountered the new humans.”

“This was another bloody conflict between civilizations. Miraculously, the old humans survived to the end and became aware of Xi Huang’s existence.”

“Faced with an unsolvable predicament against a powerful Heavenly Dao, humanity chose mutual destruction.”

“We gathered all our strength and built a massive signal tower on our mother planet.”

“On that day, everyone uploaded their consciousness and entered eternal slumber.” 𝓯𝒓𝒆𝒆𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝙤𝙢

“Our digitized consciousness broke free from the confines of space, flooding into Xi Huang’s body, and thus, ‘I’ was born.”

Nuwa pointed to herself.

She was the product of the collision between the collective human consciousness and the Heavenly Dao. That’s why She referred to humans as

“us.”

Nuwa was born within Xi Huang, and as the new Heavenly Dao, She fought a fierce battle against her brother, ultimately emerging victorious.

“But after that battle, I too was gravely injured and fell into a deep sleep, attaching myself to this warship.”

Nuwa explained.

This warship was the same signal tower from those days, the pinnacle of that civilization’s technology.

“I drifted in the void, caught by the laws of this world, and gradually awakened.”

Nuwa knew the language of the Archean Eon world and its customs, as She had once traveled in disguise and seen its landscapes.

“Over the years, I’ve been adapting to the laws of heaven and earth here.”

Nuwa pointed upwards, “Sometimes, I let a powerless incarnation go out to see… Because it’s very strong, I dare not leave this place with my true body.” She was referring to the Heavenly Dao of the Archean Eon world.

As a great realm, the power of the Archean Eon world’s Heavenly Dao was unimaginably strong.

After hearing Nuwa’s story, Lu Xuan sighed.

The rise and fall of a civilization, it was too tragic.

“Nuwa, about that monk from the Great Light Sect… What’s the story there?”

Lu Xuan remembered this matter.

“Do you mean… that demon?” Nuwa realized.

She extended her hand and pointed forward, and an image appeared on the screen in the cockpit.

It was a large pit.

An ordinary one.

Lu Xuan saw clearly, aside from its depth, there was nothing special about it.

“There’s a very strange spatial bridge here in your world,” Nuwa explained, “The middle section of Demon God Mountain is connected to another world.’

“Another world?” Lu Xuan raised an eyebrow.

He hadn’t sensed any traces of a spatial passage. “This spatial passage moves on its own, opening and closing randomly.”

Nuwa watched the screen, “Let’s wait and see.” After the time it takes to drink a cup of tea.

The large pit on the screen suddenly changed.

A dark purple aura was released, and numerous spatial cracks appeared within the pit.

Then, a monster with two horns on its head and two wings on its back, covered in thick armor, crawled out from it.

It let out a long howl to the sky, carrying a destructive aura, flapped its wings, and flew out.

Nuwa raised her hand and pointed, the monster’s body exploded, falling then and there.

Then, the spatial crack, as if frightened, flickered a few times and disappeared.

Lu Xuan:

“For these years, I have been guarding this place,” Nuwa said, “That place is connected to another world, and beings there want to come over… This is not good news for you.”

Having stayed in the Archean Eon world for so many years.

Nuwa felt it was her duty to help guard the gate to prevent the invasion of extraterrestrial demons.

“Thank you for your help,” Lu Xuan bowed in gratitude.

“The demon you encountered before is another tactic of that world… Hmm, I call that world the Demon Realm,” Nuwa said, “They have the power to corrupt cultivators, turning them into their slaves, or even outright possessing them.”

Having been in the Archean Eon world for many years.

Nuwa, being a technological Al, was familiar with various cultivation terminologies.

“No wonder that monk from the Great Light Sect, after undergoing such a transformation, turned into that state,” Cheng Lingzhu nodded in understanding. (f)reeweb(n)ovel.com

“Many years ago, another human came here, probably what you call a monk from the Great Light Sect,” Nuwa recalled, “Although their clothes were different, I could feel the Dao within these people.”

She pondered, “The first person was an ordinary cultivator, of low realm, but he accepted the demonic teachings… including some modifications to his body,

turning himself into a genius.”

“I observed him at the time; the laws within his body had been tainted with the aura of that world, but his appearance was very righteous, disguised as a normal heavenly law.”

Nuwa deduced from this that the other world at the end of the spatial bridge must also be formidable, as they mastered the art of deceiving the Heavenly Dao of the Archean Eon world.

“But at the time, I saw he was just infused with some aura and laws, not possessed by demons, still a pure human, with no demonic seeds planted in him, so I did not act and let him leave,” Nuwa said.

She was always cautious when it came to killing, and after deliberation, she did not sense any dangerous aura from the ancestor of the Great Light Sect and allowed him to pass.

The founder of the Great Light Sect couldn’t have imagined that while he was secretly colluding with demons, an artifact spirit was secretly observing him.

The founder of the Great Light Sect nearly faced a catastrophe near the gates of death before he even had the chance to establish his sect.

“But the person just now, no, he was not receiving teachings but was directly possessed by a demon. The demon, disguised as him, wanted to enter the Archean Eon world… That’s unacceptable.”

Nuwa was diligent in her duties.

As a being born from the collective will of countless humans.

Although She was a “Heavenly Dao,” She had strong personal emotional tendencies.

The one with horns, wings, and keratin armor was clearly not one of her own.

“Your service in guarding the Archean Eon world for many years is commendable, I admire you,” Lu Xuan bowed respectfully.

He thought for a moment:

“You mentioned earlier that you are monitored by the Heavenly Dao of the Archean Eon world and cannot leave the warship?”

“Yes,” Nuwa nodded.

If she could leave the warship, many things would be much easier.

“I might be able to help,” Lu Xuan said.

He raised his hand and pointed, a ray of clear light fell on Nuwa.

Nuwa sensed it carefully and immediately bowed.

“Thank you, Daoist friend!”
