Chapter 507: Eternal Life
"[Saint Light Quantum]?"
Chen Qi looked at the form of the golden figure thoughtfully.
It seems that the microscopic particles that make up this body are the [Saint Light Quantum].
In fact, not only Chen Qi, but also the beast kings who were forced to listen to the story also saw the clues.
The only ones with a mess of brains are the Lime Seven, and they really don't understand anything now.
……
"In fact, there have always been two plans for how to break through the speed of light."
"The first is to use powerful energy to warp time and space, but unfortunately we failed."
"As for the second type, it is consciousness faster than light."
"It's a pity that it was rejected as soon as it was proposed."
"Because as early as the study of immortality, we had the idea of transferring consciousness out of the physical body to a supercomputer."
"But according to our experiments, it simply can't be done."
"Our consciousness cannot be separated from the physical body at all, or once it is separated from the physical body, the consciousness is immediately annihilated."
"Because in this world, there is no substance other than our own physical body that can carry consciousness."
The more the golden figure talks, the stronger it becomes, and it really treats everyone present as a family.
Chen Qi listened thoughtfully, and the beast kings trembled.
Because of the python king, they also began to realize the essence of the golden figure in front of them.
……
"It's normal for your consciousness transfer experiments to fail!"
"Because at that time, there was no transcendent power and transcendent matter in this world."
"Pure matter cannot carry consciousness at all."
"And the reason why life itself can give birth to and carry consciousness is because of spirituality."
Chen Qi casually said the root cause of the failure of the human beings in this world, which is common sense in the transcendent world.
However, for technological civilization, this is the ultimate problem that has plagued them for tens of thousands of years.
……
"Hahaha, isn't it ridiculous, it's pathetic!"
"It's such a simple answer, but it has plagued us for tens of thousands of years."
"It wasn't until the end that we learned the answer from you outsiders."
"But one thing you said is wrong, there is extraordinary power in this world, and there is also extraordinary matter!"
"As an intelligent human, you should be able to guess the answer, right?"
The golden figure twisted and shifted, invisible or obscured.
It seems that this is the only way to show its emotional agitation.
After all, when a civilization has been seeking for thousands of years and cannot solve it, only to suddenly discover what bothers them, it is common sense for another civilization.
The impact was much larger than a meteorite impact.
……
"Indeed, in essence, there is indeed a transcendent power in this world!"
"It is the Holy Light of the Creation Myth."
Chen Qi sighed, the Holy Light was the law of creation for this world.
The Light has set the world back from the transcendent, but it is an even more powerful transcendent force in its own right.
It sounds a little funny, but it's the truth.
……
Normally, the humans of this world will never have access to supernatural powers.
But wisdom is so wonderful, after the development of science and technology reached its peak, human beings directly jumped countless transcendent levels and discovered the "Law of Creation".
And the so-called transcendent matter is the [Saint Light Quantum].
The reason why the Holy Light is called light is because this supernatural power is transmitted through the carrier of light.
That's why the human civilization of this world will be trapped in the light cone.
……
"Flash, you really know the answer!"
"That's right, there is transcendent power and transcendent matter in this world, and that is the Holy Light and the [Holy Light Quantum]."
"Actually, when we were studying consciousness transfer, we had a vision."
"If you transfer consciousness to light, wouldn't it be easy to reach the speed of light."
"It's a pity that the ordinary light of the material world can't carry consciousness at all, until we discover the [Saint Light Quantum]."
"Because it can actually carry our consciousness."
When the golden figure said this, the golden light shone even brighter, obviously quite complacent.
However, Chen Qi knew that this was the last glory of human civilization.
What happens next is what matters.
……
"After discovering the properties of the [Saint Light Quantum], we were extremely ecstatic."
"Because it not only means that we will reach the speed of light, but it also means that we will finally be able to break free from the physical constraints and live longer."
"So we restarted the consciousness transfer experiment, and of course, the capture of [Saint Light Quantum] was carried out simultaneously."
"The next few space fortress experiments were conducted to capture the Saint Light Quantum."
"After the burning of the third space fortress, we finally succeeded in transferring the consciousness of the human being to the [Saint Light Quantum]."
"Although human consciousness can only exist for a short second in the [Saint Light Quantum]."
"But we have seen the Creator."
……
Speaking of this, the tone of the golden figure suddenly became a little gloomy, and even full of resentment.
The next content is so important that the beastmasters, who have been desperately blocking all kinds of perceptions, but "have to listen", completely gave up the struggle and also pricked up their ears.
……
"You know what?"
"How excited we were when we found out that the Creator was in the same form as us!"
"The Creator was not angry at our rash appearance."
"Do you know how excited we are about it?"
"It means that the Great Creator has allowed us to reach."
"We've been frantically communicating with the Creator, but we've never gotten a response."
"We're not surprised by that, because we're a swarm of ants compared to that kind of being."
"But in the end, the Creator responded to us and gave us two options."
When it came to the two choices, the frenzied form of the golden figure collapsed again.
What it represents seems to be an unforgettable memory.
……
"For a long time, our human civilization has sought two things, one is eternal life, and the other is to break through the limitations of the world and explore the wider world."
"And the choice given to us by the Creator is to choose one of the two."
"Guess which one we chose?"
The golden figure's gaze was fixed on Chen Qi, but Chen Qi was silent.
Because the answer is so obvious that even a fool like Lem can know it.
If the human civilization at that time had chosen to [break through the limits of the world], there would have been no later disaster of immortality.
……
"Hahaha, that's right, we chose eternal life."
"Although the [Holy Light Quantum] can carry consciousness, we find that after the consciousness leaves the physical body, it is like water without a source, and it can only live for one second."
"This is also an unruly path to eternal life."
"And as long as we have eternal life and break through the limitations of this world, is it still a problem for us?"
"Of course we will choose eternal life!"
"What's wrong with that?"
The golden figure began to become arrogant, as if it were human civilization at that time.
If he didn't know what happened next, Chen Qi also felt that it was very reasonable to choose immortality.
Eternal life means countless opportunities.
The civilization of this world has reached that height in tens of thousands of years, 100,000 years, millions of years, tens of millions of years, it is simply unimaginable.
……
"After we made our choice, the Creator only said one word, and then he disappeared."
"Only then did we know that the so-called [Holy Light] was just the gaze of the Creator looking at us and the world."
"We have been living under the watchful eye of the Creator."
"We are like ants in a petri dish, silently observed by the Creator."
"And the Creator has now withdrawn his gaze and doesn't care about us anymore."
"We're finally free!"
When he said this, the golden figure showed all kinds of complicated expressions.
Fear, ecstasy, loss, and regret, from her expressions, you can fully understand the state of human civilization at that time.
……
"We humans, and even our world, are just an observational experiment that originated from the Creator."
"How can we not be terrified when we learn this truth."
"But the Creator left after we had made a choice, and we were overjoyed that we would not have to worry about the Creator's single thought completely erasing us."
"But we soon realized that this was the equivalent of the Creator, who had completely abandoned us."
"He is like a Father to us, how can we not be lost in this kind of resolute abandonment."
The expression of the golden figure changed, constantly describing the various mental reactions of human civilization at that time.
However, what Chen Qi wants to know more is, why do you regret it?
What is wrong with the choice of eternal life?
And what do those two choices represent?
……
"After the Creator withdrew his gaze, except for the [Saint Light Quantum] in our possession, the [Saint Light Quantum] that originally filled the entire world disappeared."
"It was a shock, but at the same time a sigh of relief, because it meant that the Creator was really gone."
"Immediately after, we found that the five genetic shackles that were originally unbreakable could be opened."
"What an ecstatic thing it is."
"The Creator has fulfilled his promise and given us eternal life."
"Then we broke all the shackles!"
The golden figure paused abruptly as he said this.
……
However, whether it was Chen Qi or the Beastmaster, and even Lem and the others, whose brains had been completely transformed into golden light, also knew what happened next.
The worm, without using any extraordinary power, after breaking the five shackles, the human race did become an immortal, but it also became a worm.
Even Chen Qi knows the reason for this better than everyone else.
Because if you don't use extraordinary means to open the genetic shackles, it means that the [fractal map] is not polluted in any way, and it can naturally replicate itself infinitely without losing any information structure.
Eternal life is real, but it comes at the cost of losing its human identity and returning to its original form.
……
"Bug, our noble human civilization, turned out to be a bug!"
"Even a primitive bug that doesn't have any ability to think, only instinct."
"It turns out that from the beginning, we were eternal life."
"And when we choose eternal life, we give up everything."
"Those five genetic shackles, although they lock our lifespan, bring us wisdom."
"And now, we're back to square one, a bunch of ignorant bugs."
"How can this be?"
What the golden figure tells next is the history of human self-help.
……
After realizing the catastrophe, the first thing human beings did was to re-inject the consciousness of a human being into the [Saint Light Quantum], in a vain attempt to find the Creator again.
It's a pity that it's just in vain.
What's even more terrifying is that this experiment also made them discover an extremely terrifying phenomenon.
In the underlying structure of the material world, an inexplicable force is born.
The operation law of various microscopic particles has been disturbed.
And what this represents, of course, human civilization is clear.
If this disturbance continues, the edifice of scientific and technological civilization built on the material basis will completely collapse.
Human civilization will regress directly to the age of gunpowder.
……
In order to save human civilization, mankind at that time chose to conduct space fortress experiments again.
They observed that the Vacuum Realm was collapsing, and without the interference of the Holy Light, perhaps the Space Fortress would be able to break through the Vacuum Realm and reach another world.
At that time, human beings thought that as long as they could leave this world, they would be able to avoid this decline of civilization.
The result, of course, was another failure.
As for the reason for the failure, of course, it is because as the world changes, the Space Fortress itself has also gone wrong.
……
But through those failures, humanity has also verified the fact that the Light is gone, but its effects remain.
And the human beings at that time were completely unaware of how important this was to them.
……
The magic box of immortality has been opened, and even if it turns into a bug, it still can't stop humans from exploring this field.
Eventually, humans extracted the wisdom liquid from the sacred lake.
And as long as you take the wisdom liquid before opening the fifth shackle, even if you become a bug, you can redevelop the structure of the human brain.
In this way, the true Eternals were born.
……
But it was at this point that humanity suddenly discovered that something was wrong with its own intelligence.
This is true not only for living humans, but even for newborns.
Such signs seriously interfere with humanity's "self-help plan".
……
After the failure of the space fortress experiment, since there is no way to escape, there is only one choice left for humanity.
That is to restart the stove and re-establish a civilization system that adapts to the current changes in the world.
What is needed for this, of course, is the wisdom of countless scientists.
But now, their intelligence is showing signs of decline, and research is making no progress.
……
And if you want to stop or even delay this mental decline, there is only one way, and that is to take wisdom liquid.
On the one hand, it is to save human civilization, and on the other hand, it is to realize one's own eternal life.
Around the wisdom liquid, human civilization began to split.
Eventually, the first generation of Eternals was completely erased.
……
"However, even with a sufficient supply of wisdom liquid, we have not been able to build a new civilization, but have continued to decline."
"But we didn't give up because we found another path."
"After the birth of the Eternals, we discovered the mystery of the natal gene."
"All of our own life information can be reproduced infinitely."
"So we improved the consciousness compression method, and successfully increased the survival time of consciousness after uploading [Saint Light Quantum] to one minute."
"But that's not enough!"
When the golden figure said this, Chen Qi instantly realized that the real point was coming.
What follows must be the mystery of the birth of this golden figure.
……
"A consciousness body can only live within the [Saint Light Quantum] for one minute, and this is already the limit of what we can do."
"So we had a bold idea, since a consciousness can only survive for one minute, then what if 10,000, million, 10 million consciousness bodies are linked together!"
"Just as cells die all the time in life, the whole structure survives for a long time."
"If we compress the consciousness of countless people into a whole, will we be able to create a powerful consciousness that can exist for a long time?"
"The weird thing is that we just tried it at random, and it really worked."
"And what that means is self-evident."
"All of our current human beings split and evolved from the same bug tens of thousands of years ago."
"This is a desperate truth!"
The words of the golden figure are absolutely earth-shattering.
Of course, this is only for the trembling beastmasters.
……
Now, the Beastmasters finally know why their attacks don't work.
Because the essence of the golden figure in front of him was just a [Saint Light Quantum] from beginning to end.
It was moving at the speed of light and collapsing at ultra-high frequencies that created the birth of the golden figure.
This form of existence is completely beyond their cognition, and it is strange that it can be attacked.
……
"We succeeded, I was born!"
"But soon, I realized something was wrong!"
"Because in the microcosm, a layer of shackles was born, which wants to completely lock me in the microcosm."
"In this way, there will never be me in the real world again, what is the difference between this and death?"
"In order to break through that shackle, I need to grow stronger."
"And the way, naturally, is to convert more human beings into brained immortals. Then compress their consciousness and upload it to the [Holy Light Quantum] to merge with me. ”
"And so the Cult of the Living God was born, and we were not shouting at the time, but as an alternate route to continue civilization."
When the golden figure talked about the Cult of the Living God, he was quite proud and complacent.
Chen Qi didn't expect that the current villain also played the role of a savior back then.
It's fateful!
……
"According to my calculations, the decline of human civilization simply cannot be stopped."
"For the moment we choose eternal life, we lose our wisdom forever."
"And without wisdom, civilization will perish."
"So in the end, the whole human race will become one with me."
"But the sad thing is that even after the demise of civilization, we can survive for thousands of years in the form of [Saint Light Quantum]."
"But in the end, I will still be locked up in the microcosm, because without the replenishment of fresh consciousness, my strength will only continue to weaken."
"It is precisely because of this factor that after the appearance of the mutant beast, that group of fools thought that they could develop a new transcendent civilization, so they used super soldiers to extinguish the Cult of the Immortal God, knocking me down to the microscopic level."
……
As he spoke, the golden figure became extremely hideous and twisted.
Life in the microcosm is not easy at all.
There is only dead silence, no life, it is simply the most desperate banishment.
Fortunately, the "Beastmasters" appeared!
