Chapter 2011: Future Self

~7 min read 1,336 words

Interesting.

Xiao Feng opened his attribute panel and suddenly discovered his attributes had risen sharply.

The attributes of those twelve past selves all stacked onto him, totaling over 500 million HP, 4.5 billion divine origin power, and basic attributes like divine resistance, all becoming his, as if he had consumed high-grade spiritual essence.

It's a shame that only the converted attributes were obtained; otherwise, several hundred thousand potential points could have emerged, and after tempering conversion, they'd be far stronger than this.

"Master."

"Master, I'm sorry..."

"Ah, I was wrong, I was wrong, please great expert don't blame me!"

At this moment, the surrounding Supreme Treasures flew over one after another, encircling Xiao Feng and emitting apologetic sounds.

Xiao Feng didn't blame them; it was the Origin Mi Jing causing trouble. As Supreme Treasures, it's not strange that they can't distinguish past self from present self.

Casually collecting the Supreme Treasures, Xiao Feng's attributes were full and his condition good.

Looking ahead, the steps hadn't reached the end; there were still figures waiting for him ahead.

And not just one!

After level 800 comes level 1000; the next past self is likely him during the God King period, which would be tough to handle.

He stepped forward steadily; though it seemed easy, he was actually preparing for battle.

However, when he arrived before the level 1000 past self, he found the situation somewhat different from what he had expected.

【Xiao Feng's Past Self】

Level: 1000

HP: 119.4 gai/119.4 gai

Note: This is your former self.

The introduction remains as before; this period of him still seems not very strong compared to his current self equipped with a full set of Venerable Sacred Artifacts.

But if he went all out, it would still take some effort.

This

This past self is no longer dull, nor as rebellious as the level 800 one.

Seeing Xiao Feng arrive, he said, "You've come. There's still one ahead; we need to join forces to deal with it."

"Oh? What do you mean?" Xiao Feng asked.

This past self seems to have no killing intent toward him.

But this is a trial; he doesn't believe it would be that simple, perhaps just an appearance.

The level 1000 past self said, "The one ahead is your future self, immensely powerful. Even if you absorbed all past selves, you'd likely be unable to resist. Only by us two joining forces, with doubled heart-sword and myriad laws, do we have a chance to defeat him."

"My future self?"

Xiao Feng was astonished.

He never expected that besides past selves, there would also be a future self.

He didn't know how strong his future self would be; could the Origin Mi Jing have already calculated it?

But that's not right!

Dao Ancestor Sister clearly told him that his future is unfathomable; even a Dao Ancestor cannot deduce how strong his future self will be.

This future self is probably a fake!

Xiao Feng's thoughts turned; he shook his head and said, "I'm afraid that if you two join forces, my situation will only worsen. No need for more words—offer your power if you truly wish to help me."

"Alas, you won't listen to advice, but don't regret it." The level 1000 past self sighed and then directly vanished on the spot.

The twelve past selves up front used the Heart-Snatching Grand Formation, taking Xiao Feng's present self's power, yet they still couldn't beat him; a single one would surely be no match.

Therefore he didn't resist, choosing to submit.

One past self merged in, further strengthening Xiao Feng's attributes.

Although over 100 gai of HP for his current self, increase

is still less than 10%.

But it's still more valuable than consuming ninth-grade spiritual essence; this increase is quite considerable.

Xiao Feng looked into the distance.

The Heavenly Ladder was nearly at its end; there, only a single figure stood—his future self.

All these before were merely groundwork.

Only by defeating his future self can he be considered to have passed this illusion's trial.

Xiao Feng stepped forward.

Carrying the power of all past selves and his present peak self, he went forth to meet the future.

Following the Heaven-Reaching Staircase upward, not long after he arrived before the final enemy.

Only when he got close did he see the person's appearance clearly.

Future Xiao Feng's appearance hadn't changed; his equipment was the same as his present self's, unchanged.

Only his aura was vastly stronger, and faintly a mysterious aura fluctuated, something he had never encountered before.

【Xiao Feng's Future Self】

Level: 1500

HP: 38.55 gai/38.55 gai

Note: This is your future self.

The future self's attributes have roughly 15 times the HP of his present self; other aspects are unknown for now, but it's certainly strong.

He lacks 380 levels of potential, and with a breakthrough realm doubling, the HP only increased this much, which is actually unreasonable.

However, considering his equipment is already at its limit attribute-wise, it cannot be further increased.

Moreover, the other party possibly does not have the talent 【River of Life】, everything is understandable.

"Xiao Feng, do you know why I am here?" the future self spoke, asking a question.

Xiao Feng shook his head.

The future self explained: "You don't know, the virtual universe is actually a trap; all beings in the universe display their abilities here, through comprehension

to comprehend the laws. And all of this, under the observation of the ancestors of each clan, leaves nothing hidden, especially the Supreme God.

"Oh, so what? The Dao Ancestor can inherently monitor the entire universe, even freely moving between past and future. We who have not attained the Dao, being observed is not strange at all." Xiao Feng remained calm.

The future self shook his head and said: "The reason it's called a trap is because, besides monitoring, it can also replace you. Now your souls, your experiences, your emotions, and all kinds of insights are known to the Supreme God. Only by wearing away your soul can I easily take your place and become you."

"Why speak alarmingly? If you want to fight, come on." Xiao Feng released the Supreme Treasure and assumed a combat stance.

But the future self instead did not want to fight, saying: "You aren't arguing with me; do you have nothing to say?"

"I can't be bothered to talk to you; you're just an illusion, you can't do anything to me." Xiao Feng said calmly.

"Heh, you've come all this way, and you still think this is just an illusion? Want to try? Now you can't even log out; if I kill you, you will vanish forever between heaven and earth, unable to be resurrected or reborn." The future self said in a mocking tone.

Can't log out?

Xiao Feng was a bit doubtful.

He tried it once, silently chanting to exit the game.

The result…… actually cannot!

However, it doesn't matter much.

Xiao Feng smiled lightly and said: "So what? Since my future self is here, it shows that I will still exist in the future. Your presence is proof of my immortality."

"You're too overconfident, overlooking a possibility. For example…… I actually come from another time line. Your self in that time line will be destroyed today

, putting an end to it. I have come from another life, solely to become you, to obtain what I never obtained in that life." the future self said.

"The more you drag on, what exactly do you want to say?" Xiao Feng shook his head, indicating no interest in chatting about these things.

The future self was very interested, laughing and saying: "In my time line, I, like you, dominate the heavens, cover all realms, have many followers, and beauties take turns serving. But I took a wrong step, causing me to lose Shuang'er and her unborn child. Xiao Feng, you should understand how painful that is; therefore, let me replace you, using greater strength to curb this disaster." the future self said.
