Chapter 12: Sister? Ruoxi
This meal lasted until dark, and all four of them drank quite a bit of alcohol. According to Huang Luo, as Northeast men, how could a gathering be complete without drinking? The result was that Lingyun, being a Southerner, was also forced to drink quite a lot, and the other three also showed a hint of drunkenness.
After returning to the dormitory, the three of them, Huang Luo included, climbed directly onto their beds and began to snore loudly. As for Lingyun, he sat on his own bed, opened his computer, and began to type out code with a clatter. He had previously told Luo Yexi that it wouldn't take long for him to prepare identification for her in this world, and then she wouldn't have to stay alone in the Cloud Realm all the time.
Suddenly, an inexplicable ripple spread out from the Void, enveloping Lingyun's body. His figure became increasingly faint, and finally, he disappeared directly into the Void. Fortunately, the others in the dormitory were already asleep at this time, otherwise, they would surely have thought they had seen a ghost.
With a "swish," Lingyun appeared in a pure white space. This space had no up, down, left, or right, and Lingyun simply floated in mid-air.
"You don't need to hide anymore, come out!" Lingyun said indifferently.
With a "hum," a Light Wheel appeared before Lingyun. Various lights flowed constantly over the Light Wheel, looking incomparably gorgeous. A voice that could not be distinguished as male or female came from the Light Wheel: "Ever since the Journey to the West, you have disappeared. No matter what means I used, I could not find a trace of you. I thought something had happened to you and you had fallen; I never expected you to appear in this former Human Ancestral Land in such a way. However, you look truly too weak now, so weak that a gust of wind could blow you to death!"
"Is that so? Am I very weak?" A cold sneer tugged at the corner of Lingyun's mouth. "Do you think you can really deal with me now? Believe it or not, I will destroy this avatar of yours right now! Heavenly Dao, oh Heavenly Dao, ten million eons ago I did not fear you in the slightest, and although I have lost all my cultivation now, I still do not fear you!"
"That's right, that's right. If you dare to touch a single hair on Brother's head, I will crush you into fragments!" A third person's voice rang out in this space.
Lingyun's side distorted, and a girl who looked about fifteen or sixteen years old appeared in the Void. The girl was wearing a gorgeous princess dress and was incomparably pretty and cute, but the aura she emitted made even the Heavenly Dao Light Wheel feel a palpitation. It felt that when the girl said she would crush it into fragments, she wasn't just talking; she truly had the strength to do so.
"World Consciousness of another world? Why would you appear in such a place?" A hint of solemnity appeared in the tone of the Heavenly Dao Light Wheel.
"You don't need to worry about why I appeared in such a place. I tell you, my brother, Ruoxi's brother, will not be threatened by anyone, whether it is you or your main body! If you want to make a move, I will accompany you to the end!" A colorful sword shadow appeared in Ruoxi's hand.
The Heavenly Dao Light Wheel ignored her, instead focusing its gaze on Lingyun: "To be honest, I am truly curious about your origins. The great trends of the world cannot be changed, only the minor ones can. But this law seems completely inapplicable to you. Now, a World Consciousness from another world has actually appeared by your side; I am truly becoming more and more curious about you!" A rare trace of doubt appeared in the tone of the Heavenly Dao Light Wheel.
"You don't need to concern yourself with such matters. Remember, you walk your broad road, I walk my single-plank bridge. We are currently like well water that does not interfere with river water; don't think about plotting against me, otherwise, the price is one you cannot afford!" After saying this, Lingyun's figure disappeared directly from the Pure White Space.
Seeing Lingyun disappear, Ruoxi also glared at the Heavenly Dao Light Wheel, and the sword shadow in her hand dissipated: "You must firmly remember Brother's words, otherwise, I will not let this rest!" Immediately after, she also disappeared from the Pure White Space.
"Although all cultivation has been lost, he has achieved the Body of the Great Dao and the Soul of the Great Dao, and there is an extra World Consciousness from another world of unknown origin by his side. Moreover, I have absolutely no idea how this World Consciousness from another world appeared on Earth. This Lingyun is truly unfathomable! It seems I must contact the main body as soon as possible to see what it thinks!" the Heavenly Dao Light Wheel muttered to itself, slowly disappearing from the Pure White Space.
With a "hum," Lingyun reappeared on his bed: "The strength of the Heavenly Dao is truly getting stronger and stronger. Judging by its appearance, it is likely approaching the Heavenly Dao Seventh Heaven! It is a pity that its direction is wrong, and the path ahead is becoming narrower and narrower. Otherwise, it might truly have been possible to surpass the former Pangu and become the first Great Dao powerhouse of the Honghuang world!"
"Brother!" Ruoxi's figure appeared beside Lingyun and hugged him.
"Brother? You, who are you?" Lingyun was still a bit dazed. When did he have a younger sister who was a World Consciousness? Although this World Consciousness did give him an extremely familiar feeling.
"Ruoxi is the World Consciousness of the Cloud Realm!" Ruoxi answered with a giggle.
"Cloud Realm? That's not right, didn't the Cloud Realm just open up? Why is there already a World Consciousness?" Lingyun was still full of confusion.
"That's because of Brother's hard work! Brother gathered too many Rule Fragments for me, allowing me to be born early!" Ruoxi laughed. "But before, when the world had just opened, I was busy organizing the Law Fragments in the world, so I didn't come out to meet Brother! It's just a pity that the world is not yet fully stable, so I still have to go and organize the laws of the world with all my might, and I cannot stay with Brother for long."
"I see, then I'll leave the Cloud Realm to you, it's hard work." Lingyun reached out and patted Ruoxi's head.
"Mm-hmm, Ruoxi will work hard. The initial construction of the Cloud Realm is on me!" Ruoxi narrowed her eyes, very much enjoying Lingyun's head-patting. "But Brother must also work hard, okay? We must complete the initial framework of the world as soon as possible, so that the Cloud Realm can become a help to Brother in the future."
After Ruoxi left, Lingyun fell into deep thought. According to Ruoxi, the Law Fragments in the Cloud Realm would not take much longer to be organized. It seems his journey of traversing worlds has only just begun.
Shaking his head, Lingyun threw the matter aside. Regardless, this was not something that needed to be handled in the short term. The most important thing now was to get Luo Yexi's identification sorted out first.
In the nothingness outside the River of Time and Space, a group of people were gathered for a meeting. The identities of these people were not simple; they were all the consciousnesses of vast worlds. Moreover, these worlds were all top-tier worlds. That's right, they were "she," not "he." It seemed that because these people were existences that had nurtured worlds, they all existed in female form.
"Have you felt it? Some time ago, a new world was born," a woman dressed in magnificent robes said.
"Isn't a new world being born in the Sea of Origin every moment?" another woman said with a lazy expression. "What does that have to do with us?"
"No, Weiya, are you talking about that new world that caused the Sea of Origin to riot?" A look of surprise appeared on the face of the woman wearing a Western-style long dress.
"That's right. I am quite interested in that world, because when that world was born, I was near the Sea of Origin, and I saw with my own eyes the Underworld King of the end suffer heavy damage under the riot of the Sea of Origin. However, what is even more interesting is that in that world, I sensed an existence whose Status is higher than everyone present here!" the woman in magnificent robes said with a smile.
"Status higher than ours? Is there such an existence in that world? Could it be a Creator God? That's not right, having undergone sublimation, we are already at the Level 1 existence of Creator Gods; theoretically, such an existence should not exist!" the fourth woman said, frowning.
"But such an existence has appeared, hasn't it?" the woman in magnificent robes said.
"Yes, it is truly unbelievable."
"There is something even more interesting!" The woman in magnificent robes broke even bigger news. "I went to look for that newborn world before, but I searched the entire River of Time and Space and could not find this world. In the River of Fate, I also could not find the fate line of that world!"
"This, this can't be possible!" This time, everyone present was astonished. "Such a world actually exists?"
"I am not lying. That world has not perished; this is my intuition. Now, everyone, are you interested in playing a game?" The woman in magnificent robes giggled and took out a fan, covering half of her face.
"What game?" Everyone present became excited. For world consciousnesses like them who had nothing to do, playing games was absolutely great.
"The content of the game is to find that unknown world. The first person to find it is the winner and can make one request that is not excessive to the others. How about this game?" A glimmer of inexplicable light flashed in the eyes of the woman in magnificent robes.
The world consciousnesses present looked at each other, flashes of interest in their eyes, and then they all turned into streams of light and disappeared into the Void.
Ruoxi, who was constructing the world laws in the Cloud Realm, only felt a chill down her back, as if some extraordinary existence had set its sights on her. However, she investigated carefully for a while but found nothing, so she simply threw the matter to the back of her mind.
