Chapter 1842 "Grafting of Rules" and "Elevation of Origin", Changes in the Spiritual Energy in the Air
In the real world, in the microcosm.
Bai Xuanjing stood atop a white jade cliff at the center of the world, a helpless expression on his face.
At this moment, a warm and hazy halo, indescribable in words, was surrounding his body, slowly swirling around him like the most affectionate pet.
This halo is the manifestation of "world consciousness".
Sometimes He brushed against Bai Xuan's sleeve, sometimes He leaped on his shoulder, radiating boundless joy, dependence, and happiness.
He was like a child who had just learned that his parents had brought home a precious gift, unable to contain his joy and affection.
Although, in theory, He is the one who should be the "parent".
The so-called "gift" is naturally Bai Xuan's reward for this transmigrator mission, a [world fragment] containing the rules and origins of other worlds.
For "world consciousness," whether it's directly raising the world level or merging with [world fragments] containing otherworldly rules, it's essentially "nourishment" that allows it to grow stronger and have a more solid foundation.
It may not be able to fully understand the so-called "qualitative change" and "possibility," but it can most intuitively understand how the "fragments of the world" benefit it.
This instinctive desire led to an unprecedented level of affinity and dependence on Bai Xuan.
Bai Xuan looked down at the warm halo that kept brushing against his arm. He stretched out his finger and gently touched the halo. The touch was not physical, but a warmth and joy that reached his soul.
“Apart from the initial period, you’ve become more and more like a child.”
"You think that once you hand over control of the world to me, you can stop doing nothing, right?"
"It's completely upside down."
After hearing Bai Xuan's words, the "World Consciousness" shimmered slightly with light around it, as if it were refuting something, but it quickly conveyed the emotions of "the capable should do more" and "I am very happy to have a child like Bai Xuan."
After circling his finger twice, it finally quieted down a little, but still clung to him, radiating a bright glow, showing its anticipation.
Bai Xuan shook his head slightly, said no more, and his consciousness sank into the chat group.
"Receive award."
"Ding, group member [Child of Nature] has been detected to have claimed the reward [World Fragment]."
"Ding, confirm receipt?"
"confirm."
The instant Bai Xuan confirmed it, a crystalline fragment about the size of a fist, radiating an indescribable chaotic color, with countless nebulae seemingly born and dying inside and rules intertwined, appeared out of thin air in the void in front of him.
The moment this fragment appeared, the entire small world trembled slightly, as if parched soil had received a refreshing rain.
The halo of world consciousness surrounding Bai Xuan burst forth with dazzling light, conveying an intense longing. Yet, it remained close to Bai Xuan, not daring to approach rashly, as if waiting for Bai Xuan's permission.
Bai Xuan gazed at this "fragment of the world." He could sense the rules contained within it, which were both different from and potentially complementary to the rules of his own world, as well as the immense, primordial power of the world that transcended any "power system."
He reached out and lightly touched the shards with his fingertips.
"Buzz!"
The fragment transformed into a stream of light, but instead of directly merging into the world, it first merged into Bai Xuan's body.
He is the master of the world, the agent of the world's will, and can even be regarded as an extension of the world.
Only with him leading the integration can this "grafting of rules" and "elevation of the origin" be completed most effectively and safely.
The next moment, centered on Bai Xuan, an indescribable change quietly occurred.
He emanated a hazy, clear light, and behind him, it seemed as if endless phantom images of worlds flashed by—a sign that the otherworldly rules contained within the fragments were being activated.
The rules of the entire small world seemed to have been injected with new vitality, and began to operate more actively and profoundly.
The sky is higher and farther, the earth is more profound, the spiritual energy is purer and more vibrant, and the growth of all things seems to have accelerated slightly. A more complete and infinitely possible aura permeates every corner of the world.
Bathed in this clear light, the halo of world consciousness emitted a comforting hum, and its form seemed to solidify and grow stronger.
It conveys a sense of satisfaction, joy, and a deeper dependence on Bai Xuan.
Beyond this small world, in the vast and boundless universe, a more magnificent, yet more imperceptible, change spreads silently, like ripples spreading from a pebble thrown into a still lake.
This change is not reflected at the level of matter or energy, but at the level of the most fundamental rules of the universe.
It's as if an invisible pen has added a few exquisite and novel algorithms to the underlying code of the universe.
The long river of life's evolution seems to have been infused with even richer "possibilities".
Some genetic mutations that were originally destined to disappear may be given a chance to survive; some long-dormant ancient genetic fragments may be reactivated.
This effect will span light-years, manifesting itself in countless ways and extremely slowly across billions of planets, perhaps taking millions of years or even longer to become apparent.
At the very same instant that the rules of the universe were subtly adjusted.
Within the dimension, a huge, ancient book, its cover seemingly woven from stardust and time, silently emerges.
The pages are not made of paper, but rather seem to be a mixture of frozen historical light and shadow and flowing lines of cause and effect.
It opened automatically, exuding an extremely rich sense of history.
As the rules of the real universe subtly shifted, countless words and patterns began to automatically appear on the blank pages of this book.
It quietly records all of this, imprinting everything that happens in the world onto its own pages.
Bai Xuan didn't care about the changes that had occurred in the world. Compared to the changes brought about by "upgrading the world level" in the past, the changes caused by merging with the [world fragments] were quite minor and not worth his excessive attention.
He still stood quietly on the cliff of the small world, feeling the closer connection between himself and the world and the infinite potential for growth.
Although the world itself has only been given a small "variable", this "variable" may cause unpredictable changes in the future.
At the same time, the halo surrounding Bai Xuan, representing the world's consciousness, emitted a full and joyful fluctuation after completely absorbing and fusing with the nourishment brought by the [World Fragment].
Like a young animal after a hearty meal, it affectionately rubbed against Bai Xuan's cheek, conveying a sense of satisfaction and gratitude.
Immediately afterward, without waiting for any instructions from Bai Xuan, the halo trembled slightly, and from its core, a wisp of extremely pure, pale golden energy containing the essence of the world separated out.
This energy, as if possessing its own consciousness, penetrated the barriers of the small world and silently merged into the depths of Earth's origin.
This process does not act on the Earth's surface.
It did not trigger an earthquake or tsunami, did not change the climate or landform, and did not even cause any unusual spiritual activity as usual.
This infusion of energy occurred in a dimension far deeper than the material realm, directly touching the will of the planet Earth.
In an instant, an indescribable, warm, and grand will, like a stream thawing in early spring, silently spread.
Immediately afterwards, a soft and vast azure halo slowly seeped into the sky above the small world. It did not manifest a specific form, but it seemed to transform the entire sky into a warm ocean.
The halo carried the fragrance of earth, the saltiness of the sea breeze, and the vibrant vitality of all things growing.
He found Bai Xuan on the cliff, and like a fledgling returning to its nest, with boundless affection and gratitude, He was about to circle around it to express His sincerest thanks.
The will of the Earth clearly knows from whom that gift originated.
Although it was given by the will of the world, He certainly wouldn't have done it without Bai Xuan, since that's what happened last time.
If Bai Xuan hadn't spoken up, the world's will would never have given Him the world's origin.
However, just as the azure halo was about to touch the corner of Bai Xuan's robe.
"Buzz!"
The small world consciousness aura that had been clinging to Bai Xuan and had appeared content and docile suddenly erupted with an incomparably intense pure white light!
The light carried an undeniable xenophobia and displeasure, like a young beast guarding its food, suddenly expanding to form a barrier, resolutely blocking the contact of Earth's will.
The pure white light and the azure halo stood in silent confrontation in the air.
The world consciousness conveyed an unparalleled and clear idea:
"He's mine! Get out of my way!"
Its fluctuations are filled with dissatisfaction with the will of the Earth.
Although Bai Xuan was born on Earth and was chosen by the will of Earth to obtain the "Natural Authority," thus gradually arriving at where he is today, that is all in the past.
Bai Xuan is now the true Lord of the World, the Lord of the World who possesses all His authority.
They share in each other's glory and their shared loss.
Bai Xuan belongs to Him.
The aura of Earth's will rippled slightly, conveying an emotion that initially carried a hint of bewilderment at rejection, but it did not falter, responding with a gentle yet firm will:
“He is also my child, a ‘child of nature’ born in my arms; I have a natural affection for him, this is the cause and effect, and you have no right to separate us.”
The azure halo attempted to bypass the pure white barrier, searching for a crevice like gentle water.
Meanwhile, global consciousness tightly controls every angle, driving everything away.
Two great wills, representing different levels but both closely related to Bai Xuan, thus began a silent "debate" and "tug-of-war" around him.
Caught in the middle, Bai Xuan felt the two enormous and pure consciousnesses beside him vying for attention like children. A trace of helplessness flashed across his eyes again, but the barely perceptible curve at the corner of his mouth seemed to deepen slightly.
After a moment, he slowly raised his hands, his left hand gently pressing on the restless aura of consciousness in the small world, while his right hand reached forward, his fingertips flowing with gentle natural power, caressing the azure aura that was trying to approach.
"All originate from nature, so why distinguish between them?"
As he touched and spoke, the repulsive light of the world consciousness gradually softened. Although it was still close to Bai Xuan, it was no longer so tense.
The azure halo of Earth's will also subsided, becoming docile, like a comforted mother, contentedly surrounding Bai Xuan, radiating a tranquil and peaceful ripple.
Meanwhile, Zhi Xin, who was quietly guarding Bai Xuan not far away, was watching the scene intently.
Because of Bai Xuan, she could clearly "see" the pure white halo representing the world's consciousness, as well as the azure Earth's will that had just permeated in, radiating a vast maternal aura.
However, it was precisely because she could "see" so clearly that she always felt something was strange.
A look of confusion appeared on Zhixin's face.
Should we do something now? Or should we just watch?
Or should we pretend we didn't see anything?
Meanwhile, in a quiet room at the Spiritual Energy Bureau in Hangzhou, China.
Huo Yu sat cross-legged, surrounded by a faint crimson aura. Her breathing was steady and long, and her body instinctively guided the rich spiritual energy in the air to circulate within her. With each circulation, she could feel a subtle increase in her own strength.
However, at a certain moment, the rhythm of her guiding spiritual energy inexplicably showed a very subtle stagnation. It was not an obstruction, but more like a flowing stream suddenly encountering a particularly smooth pebble. The water naturally flowed around it, but brought a different tactile sensation.
Huo Yu was suddenly jolted awake from his deep meditation and opened his eyes.
She didn't get up immediately, but frowned slightly and used all her senses to carefully explore every inch of the quiet room, especially the omnipresent spiritual energy.
"strangeness."
She muttered to herself, a puzzled look on her face.
There was nothing wrong with the spiritual energy in the air. Under the fourth spiritual energy tide, it was so rich that no matter how much she absorbed it, it would not decrease in the slightest, and the vitality it contained was as vigorous as ever.
But is it just my imagination? Something feels off.
This "something's not right" isn't negative, but rather a more "vivid" feeling.
The spiritual energy I used to receive, though gentle and full of life, was more like a pure, readily available form of energy. But the spiritual energy I just absorbed seemed to possess a deeper level of "spirituality."
Like a drop of water falling into a lake, which used to only cause ripples, now seems to make you hear the water droplet's joyful murmur.
It feels completely different.
But now, that feeling seems to be gone. Is it just my imagination?
Huo Yu also felt it was an illusion.
Because "spiritual energy" is a form of energy, it cannot change without a reason, and it just so happens that only a "slight" part of it has changed.
She was just cultivating as usual, there was nothing special about it, and it was impossible for it to cause any changes.
If the spiritual energy in the air truly possessed a trace of "spirituality" as she imagined, then the entire world would be shaken by it.
Unless it's related to Bai Xuan.
