Chapter 367: Supreme Miracle: Manifesting the Real from the Void

As Lin Qing merged one Chaos Source Crystal after another into his inner world, transforming them into clusters of ultra-dense energy, the newly expanded 'Manifesting the Real from the Void' function of the Entropy Reverser began to charge.

The energy contained in a single Chaos Source Crystal was thousands to tens of thousands of times greater than his total energy, and exhausting it would still require considerable time.

Back when he was a low-level Chaos creature, even with constant consumption, it took thousands of years to completely deplete the energy of one Chaos Source Crystal; now, although it is more than a thousand times faster, it still takes several years to exhaust a single Chaos Source Crystal.

Thus, the main body focused solely on charging the Entropy Reverser, while the Black Flame Clone swallowed the semi-finished product of Star Spirit Marrow and dedicated itself to fusing the mysteries of space and time.

Although Your Majesty the Light King had promised to prepare a suitable clone for him, he did not know when that would be, so he could only wait.

In the blink of an eye, more than a thousand years passed.

As the energy of the four hundred and eighty-seventh Chaos Source Crystal was mostly consumed, the final surge of energy poured into the invisible channel of the Entropy Reverser—

【Current 'Manifesting the Real from the Void' Charge Progress: 100%】

【Charging Complete】

【All Phenomena are Void, All Phenomena are Real; when you return from the illusory future, you may choose to bring one item from the future back to the present; upon consuming sufficient energy, it becomes real; Remaining Uses: 1】

"This..."

Lin Qing stared at the rows of faint glowing text appearing before his eyes and could not help but pause in astonishment.

"Return from the illusory future? Bring an item back to the present?"

After a long while, Lin Qing finally understood the meaning of this so-called Supreme Miracle 'Manifesting the Real from the Void' and could not help but take a deep breath.

"Truly a miracle... incredible, turning an item from the future into reality?"

He saw it at a glance.

This Supreme Miracle must be paired with the 'Descent into the Future' mystery to be used!

The 'Descent into the Future' mystery, in essence, allows consciousness to descend onto one's future self; it can be said to be the simulated future he experienced back then!

But...

The 'future' has not yet occurred; it inherently does not exist, is merely illusory, and the 'present' is always the most important.

Whether it is Future Sight, Future Body, or Descent into the Future, all contact the illusory future; before the future meets the present, the future can never be confirmed as real.

The future seen by Future Sight is merely a possibility of the future.

The future altered by Future Sight must also wait until that moment arrives.

Descent into the Future is merely a descent of consciousness; in reality, it is only a simulation of the future, experiencing the future in advance, but nothing changes except one's own memory.

Yet 'Manifesting the Real from the Void' can actually bring an item back from the future!

If this speculation holds, then even a unique existence should theoretically be able to bring something back from the future to reality!

"Isn't this just simulating the future, yet retaining an item?"

Lin Qing took a deep breath. "However, with only this one chance, I must plan carefully..."

With only one chance for 'Manifesting the Real from the Void', it naturally must be reserved for a necessary moment.

Although the grayish fragment of rock given to him by His Highness Su belonged to only one three-hundred-and-eightieth of the Entropy Reverser's origin—perhaps more such fragments exist.

But even the remnants left from the Primordial Realm amount to only this single piece; who knows if there is any hope of obtaining a second one.

Therefore, this opportunity for 'Manifesting the Real from the Void' must be cherished.

"Cultivate first."

Lin Qing gathered his thoughts and continued to cultivate in stillness. "The stronger my power becomes, the more precious the treasures I obtain in the future will be."

Wasting the chance for 'Manifesting the Real from the Void' on a treasure he could acquire in greater quantities once his power grew would be far too wasteful.

Of course, if the opportunity arises, it would be best to gather more of those grayish fragments of rock.

Several thousand more years passed.

On this day, Lin Qing suddenly felt the Light King Token within his body tremble slightly; immediately following, space-time twisted, and a space-time rift appeared before his eyes.

At the same time, the vast and majestic voice of the Light King resonated in his heart:

"Your clone is ready."

Hearing this, Lin Qing looked and saw a crystal bottle fly out from the space-time rift, floating down to hover before his eyes.

Inside the crystal bottle, a slightly illusory mist could be seen; amidst the churning mist, an illusory world was vaguely visible, being born and extinguished, rising and sinking, born in an instant and extinguished in a flash.

"This is..." Lin Qing asked in confusion.

"A Chaos creature, a Mind Walker."

The Light King's voice came through: "This Mind Walker is extremely rare even among Chaos creatures; looking across the endless Chaos, there is not another one that has not yet evolved to the Eternal level."

"Not yet at the Eternal level?" Lin Qing asked in surprise.

Every Chaos creature is capable of growing to the Eternal level; ordinary ones are like the Flame-Swallowing Python, with power approaching that of an Eternal peak expert, while powerful ones are comparable to Ultimate Existences.

Finding a Chaos creature that has not yet entered its mature stage is not easy, and the rarer the Chaos creature, the more so.

"Your authority is granted by the universe and has its own limit; you can only transform beings below the Eternal level into your clones."

The Light King said: "This Mind Walker is born with a powerful mental will, capable from birth of using its will to delve deep into the river of space-time; its bloodline possesses an innate secret technique that can amplify your mental will, allowing you to better unleash the Illusory World Great Extinction."

"Amplifying the will?" Lin Qing's eyes lit up.

Any secret technique for cultivating the will, once it reaches the level of affecting the river of space-time, has already reached its limit.

An individual's mental will, once merged into the inner world, becomes the will of the world.

Therefore, for the mental will to progress further, one can only rely on the world's transformation and expansion, relying on breakthroughs in realm.

For instance, Xiao Ying Bo, due to his higher realm, possesses a mental will several times stronger than his, to the extent that the Illusory World Great Extinction can only weaken half of his power.

This is a gap brought by realm; everyone is the same, and it cannot be avoided.

Yet this Mind Walker can actually amplify the will?

"The Mind Walker is born able to walk between minds, perceiving, peering into, and even merging into the depths of other beings' minds."

The Light King said: "Once a Mind Walker matures, it can even completely penetrate the river of space-time; this is one of the prerequisite conditions for achieving the Ultimate and opening a universe."

"Thoroughly permeating the River of Time and Space?" Lin Qing pondered thoughtfully.

Now, he also understood the three necessary conditions for achieving the Ultimate—

The method to open a universe, a world with a diameter of at least thirty-eight billion kilometers, and a will that thoroughly permeates the River of Time and Space.

"The growth of this Mind Walker does not require comprehending the rules of time and space."

The Light King said, "But it requires sufficient energy and time. If you can provide suitable chaotic rare materials, it can also mature quickly."

Lin Qing nodded slightly and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

"Nurture this clone well."

The Light King paused, then said, "Additionally, I have seen the future. Starting from this regional war you are involved in, the flames of war will gradually expand, drawing other kingdoms into it, even evolving into a struggle between the three Divine Kingdoms. Within at most a few million years, the King Realm will fully erupt into a Divine Kingdom War. At that time... the flames of war will burn across the entire universe."

"Divine Kingdom War?" Lin Qing exclaimed in shock.
