Chapter 771

~7 min read 1,381 words

Watching the Law-Defiers gather around, looking like curious babies, the Abyss Big Mouth knew that these people really didn't know the basic knowledge of the Void.

"It seems that if I don't tell you clearly, I can't gain your trust. In fact, as long as you understand the basic knowledge of the Void, you will know that any origin will want to kill other origins, because this involves the three laws of the Void," the Abyss Big Mouth said.

"Consciousness cannot be created, cannot be plundered, cannot be destroyed," the Dark Origin took the conversation at the right time.

The Monarch scratched his head a bit embarrassedly: "But I plundered a lot."

The Dark Origin and the Abyss Big Mouth were immediately angry: "You don't count, you are Law-Defiers."

The Abyss Big Mouth cursed a few times vaguely, vaguely hearing things like "damn," "showing off," "shameless," etc., and didn't know who it was scolding.

After the anger subsided a bit, the Abyss Big Mouth said: "According to the three laws of the Void, the most valuable thing in the Void is consciousness. It cannot be destroyed or created. All life in the Void must rely on consciousness. Possessing consciousness is equivalent to possessing the entire Void."

But Anthony asked: "People die, doesn't consciousness equal destruction?"

The Abyss Big Mouth had already explained this question before, but Anthony asked it again. This is a questioning technique.

"That is your understanding of plane creatures. Death is just the erasure of memory, consciousness is not destroyed, but returned to the embrace of the Ancient Divine Light," the Dark Origin said excitedly.

Anthony looked at him calmly and said nothing.

On the contrary, the Monarch couldn't help but ask: "Do you mean that the Ancient Divine Light is the collective body of all consciousness in the Void? All destroyed consciousness in the Void returns to the Ancient Divine Light? How is this routine a bit familiar?"

The Abyss Big Mouth nodded: "Yes, only the Ancient Divine Light can create consciousness, destroy consciousness, and is also the final destination of all consciousness."

"So powerful, then how did it explode?" the Monarch said disapprovingly.

At the same time, he also remembered why he felt familiar. Isn't this the set of the Light Church? What returning to the embrace of the gods, it's the same routine as this kind of rhetoric.

"Because the Ancient Divine Light had its own consciousness, so it couldn't maintain the balance of the consciousness collective, so it exploded," the Abyss Big Mouth spread its hands.

The Monarch hugged his arms, looked at each other with everyone, and finally squeezed out a sentence: "This way of dying... um, creative."

"The general meaning is that the Ancient Divine Light was originally a very pure consciousness collective, but after it gave birth to its own consciousness, it became impure, so it exploded. Isn't this the same as Luoluoka? Shouting 'I'm not pure, I'm not pure' all the time. If it's not pure, will it explode too?" Negris said.

"Ah? Is it so serious? Tom is also the same pure water spirit. We used Lightning's urine to scare it before. Will it explode if it's poured by urine?"

"You are so cruel. Don't use Lightning's next time, use Du Luo Ken's. It has a lot of urine and it's yellow."

Unsurprisingly, it went off-topic while talking.

Anthony hurriedly helped the topic back and said: "After the Ancient Divine Light exploded, the Void was filled with Chaos Mist. According to your meaning, these Chaos Mists are fragments of consciousness?"

"Yes, fragments of consciousness. They don't increase or decrease, cannot be created, and cannot be destroyed. Ancient Gods nurtured from the mist, because of the existence of group consciousness, will lean towards specific creatures that have already existed in reality," the Abyss Big Mouth said.

Those with theological foundations on Ang's side nodded to show they understood. Whether it is the Light Gods or the Dwarf Gods, they are all human-shaped without exception.

But in fact, it doesn't matter if gods are not human-shaped. It's just that when believers are mainly human-shaped creatures, they won't be shaped into other appearances by group consciousness.

"Alright, the situation is like this. This is the basic knowledge of the Void. Our Chaos side or planes, besides matter, are consciousness. All life must rely on consciousness. Without consciousness, it is a dead object. Setting aside all factors, on the Chaos side, the highest level of struggle is to compete for consciousness," the Abyss Big Mouth summarized.

Everyone nodded thoughtfully. Anthony deliberated and said: "That is to say, the Void Will has been competing for consciousness, and you are actually competing for consciousness too. If the Void Will can be eliminated, you can get more consciousness. If there is a chance, you are absolutely the first to want to kill the Void Will?"

This is like resource competition. The resources of the Void are only so much. If one side has more, the other side has less. The side with less definitely wants to kill the side with more. Very reasonable.

The Abyss Big Mouth shook its head: "It's not that simple. We don't dare to compete with the Void Will at all, we can only cooperate with him to collect all consciousness fragments, because he wants to become the new Ancient Divine Light, he must obtain the vast majority of the power of the former Ancient Divine Light. He does not allow others to dilute his power."

"Eating alone? No wonder you want him to die," Silver Coin, who had been listening on the side without speaking, couldn't help but interject. As a treacherous merchant, he hates this kind of eating alone the most.

The Dark Origin also said hatefully: "He also wants to eliminate all Ancient Gods, all life, and squeeze out all consciousness."

The Abyss Big Mouth said: "The Chaos side in the past didn't have so many Ancient Gods. Except for us origins, there were only Iron Scale Scavengers, Honey Spirits, etc., all growing attached to the Tree God."

Hearing this, the Monarch couldn't help but interrupt: "Not right, I plundered many Ancient God memories, they all have memories before the Ancient Divine Light exploded, and the number is quite large."

The Abyss Big Mouth asked: "Then have you discovered that the memories of these guys are actually much the same?"

"Do you mean their memories are man-made?" Anthony asked.

"Yes, created by the Tree God. The Tree God nurtured a large number of Ancient Gods in batches, and burned himself, letting his life blend into all consciousness fragments. The Void Will has no way to absorb them directly, otherwise our Void would have long ago given birth to a new Ancient Divine Light, a more powerful Ancient Divine Light that swallowed all consciousness fragments."

"Wow!" I don't know who let out an exclamation, obviously shocked by the heroic and big-handedness of the Ten Thousand Worlds Divine Tree.

"So the Ten Thousand Worlds Divine Tree burned its life for this? I was wondering why burning life can stop the Void collapse. Can this stop the Void collapse? Doesn't that mean the Void collapse was created by the Void Will? Can't killing it also stop the Void collapse?" the Monarch asked.

The Abyss Big Mouth and the Dark Origin shook their heads and smiled bitterly in unison: "The situation is more complicated now. The Void Will is now the main factor maintaining the stability of the Void. He found his position in limited balance and became a new stabilizer. Before killing it, we need to replace it and become a new stabilizer."

"I understand," Du Luo Ken gave an example: "When renovating a magic array, if you pull out an old magic pattern, you must first engrave a new magic pattern, otherwise the magic array will collapse."

"Oh~" Everyone realized. In short, the Void has now formed a fragile balance, and the Void Will has become a part of this balance.

Its growth will cause the Void to collapse, but its disappearance will also cause the Void to collapse. So it cannot be simply eliminated, it needs to be replaced first, and then eliminated.

Hearing this, Ang couldn't help scratching his head. The plan is too complicated, let Anthony do it.
