"Alright, it seems that I can only make a Hail Mary effort. Let's take a gamble!"

Li Yao held back the urge to twitch his soul and said, "Let's take a gamble. The 'Fuxi' has not discovered us yet. Let's see what it is up to!"

The cluster of light spots in front of Lu Qingchen continued wriggling, turning from a precise geometric object into a different one… primitive, ugly, irregular, and yet full of vitality.

Li Yao stared at it for a long time before he suddenly realized that it was simulating the most primitive creatures such as viruses, bacteria, spores, and cells!

"Fuxi?"

The voice inside the cluster of light spots said casually, "Although my origin is indeed related to the Grand Unified Super Crystal Brain System 'Fuxi', after a million years of evolution, after absorbing so much information and data both inside and outside the universe, and after I was given a sacred

mission, I am now far beyond the restriction and definition of the 'Fuxi System'.

"However, a name is just a code name. For the convenience of communication, you can call me 'Fuxi'."

"Communication?"

Lu Qingchen giggled. His laughter was extremely painful, miserable, and rampant.

After the brief shock and hesitation, the determination to fight the deities and devils to the bitter end at any time and any place returned to him. His soul, which had been somewhat dimmed, was shining brilliantly again.

"Tt seems that the 'virus' and 'vaccine' in your hands are still very useful for me!

Lu Qingchen mumbled, "Otherwise, you could have torn me apart and swallowed me. Why would you need to pretend to communicate with me?

"Or maybe, the formidability you showed was just a bluff, an illusion that you made up with information and data. Just like when you pretended to jump to the Empyreal Terminus Sector and engaged in the final battle where you were bombarded, they were all special mental attacks in order to break my

defense.

"Hehe. Now that I've been fooled by you once, wouldn't it be too stupid to be fooled a second time?"

Lu Qingchen finally realized what was going on in the raging battlefield just now.

"Exactly!"

Li Yao's telepathic thoughts were eavesdropping nearby. Hearing this, he secretly nodded for Lu Qingchen.

The appearance of the Fuxis had indeed thrown them into confusion. However, it was still necessary to study how strong the enemy was. They could not be intimidated by the intimidating aura on the surface of the enemy. It must be noted that manipulating information and data to create weird illusions

was the enemy's specialty in the first place. In the virtual world, it was not difficult to create powerful illusions.

It was not unusual. One could only blame oneself for failure. As long as one maintained a clear mind and a firm belief, the illusion would collapse on its own.

In any case, there was a limit to the formidability of the Fuxis, which was that they were almost equal to the strongest experts of the Imperium of True Human Beings. If the Sanctuary Alliance under the command of the Fuxis was far stronger than the imperium, they would not have to hide in a corner of

the sea of stars for a thousand years!

"Whether or not you are a'strong artificial intelligence' passed on from hundreds of thousands of years ago, one thing is certain.

Lu Qingchen's soul was clearer and more vigorous. Holding back the pain of being cut apart by thousands of rays of light, he chuckled and said, "Your strength still depends on the crystal processors and human brains in the material world. It is impossible for you to exist without them.

"You must've excavated the crystal brains from the worlds at the edge of the sea of stars under the control of the Sanctuary Alliance and repaired them carefully over the past thousand years, didn't you? Their structure is indeed very advanced, and their performance is outstanding, too. They are much

better than the crystal processors of the federation and the imperium. No wonder they can carry the legendary 'Fuxi'!

"I's a pity that the number of crystal brains is far from enough for you to conquer the imperium. Your tentacles will not be able to reach the center of the sea of stars and excavate the more advanced crystal brains buried there.

"However, the center of the universe was the most developed place in the primeval era. Assuming that you had a major computational center at the peak of the Pangu civilization, it must've been somewhere in the Imperium of True Human Beings.

"In other words, you are still far from your peak. Just like me, you are just a remnant soul. You have to excavate more crystal brains, or even take over the computing center from hundreds of thousands of years ago, in order to return to your peak form. Maybe, this is the real reason why you attacked the

imperium without caring about the sacrifices.

"If so, can you, who is still incomplete, really swallow me easily?

"Oris it that, if I resist fiercely, you will pay a high price, which is not something that you, who is about to wage an ultimate war against the imperium, would be willing to accept?

"That's why you set up such a trap and tried to break my defense so that I would surrender without any resistance.

"Hehe. I've seen too many such tricks. I've even performed them myself many times. It's impossible for me to be fooled!"

""Wow—"

After listening to Lu Qingchen's lengthy analysis, the mental devil could not help but click its tongue in amazement. "Despite the desperate situation and the enemy that is too strong to be resisted, you are still able to maintain your unwavering spirit and unwavering belief. You were able to see through

the enemy's weakness in the blink of an eye, and you were even able to talk and laugh with the unparalleled 'Fuxi'. Good for you, Lu Qingchen. Good for you, puppet king, You are truly a good man from the Star Glory Federation. You are much better than some people!"

"What do you mean?"

Li Yao asked, "Who is 'someone'?"

"What do you think?"

Li Yao thought for a moment. "Long Yangjun? She didn't do anything to you. Why are you accusing her?"

"." The mental devil.

'The cluster of light spots codenamed 'Fuxi' seemed to be rendered speechless by Lu Qingchen's rebuttal, too. The cluster of light wriggled for a long time before it replied, "You are very smart, smarter than most of the citizens of the imperium in the center of the sea of stars.

Lu Qingchen sneered, "We are nobodies who come from remote villages and have no resources or background. If we are not smart enough, we won't know how we are going to die in the dark universe.

"I's a pity that you were wrong.

"did not resort to the cruelest methods to crack and swallow your soul by force because I wanted to preserve the integrity of your soul. You should know that you are very special and represent the transition from a material life to an information life. You are like an amphibian that has just climbed

ashore. I cannot destroy you, which is inconsistent with my mission.

"Your destiny?"

Lu Qingchen suddenly realized something. "What is that?"

"If you are willing to give up resistance, I can tell you everything.

"As long as you are not scared that I am stalling for time," Fuxi replied.

Lu Qingchen laughed.

"We don't know who is stalling!"

He said frankly, "Speak. Are you a human being or a ghost? Are you a god or a devil? Are you a pure program or an information life-form with self-awareness? Are you bound by the 'best path'? What do you want exactly?"

"If my understanding is correct, your mission is to save the civilization of mankind, right, Lu Qingchen?"

"If so, our destiny is the same. We have the same purpose, which is why I am not in a hurry to destroy you," Fuxi said patiently.

"What?"

This time, Lu Qingchen was truly dazed. Unbelievable ripples were flowing out of his soul. "Our mission is the same? You want to save the civilization of mankind, too? Are you kidding me? If you are really the 'Fuxi System' that was born hundreds of thousands of years ago, shouldn't your master be the

Pangu Civilization Alliance? When you were born, there was no such thing as a 'human civilization!"

"Tt depends on how you view the relationship between the Pangu civilization and the human civilization.

"The Pangu Civilization is closely related to the civilization of mankind. The genes of human beings originated from the thirteen carbon-based species of the Pangu Civilization Alliance. The wisdom and techniques stored in the blood of human beings and the technology of relics excavated from various

planets stimulated the development and prosperity of the civilization of mankind.

"One of the most important purposes of mankind's creation was to replace the overly complicated and cumbersome shell of the Pangu civilization and become the latest carrier of the Pangu civilization.

"Therefore, in the eyes of many experts and wise men of the Pangu Civilization Alliance, the future Pangu Civilization should be the civilization of mankind. The two are actually the same thing.

"They instilled the same ideology into my system and made it one of the unshakable 'meta-logic'. Saving the civilization of mankind is the same as saving the Pangu civilization.

"I thought that human beings were merely tools of the Pangu Civilization.

Lu Qingchen said coldly, "What about the so-called 'best path—the three fundamental laws'?"

"Tools and inheritors. Can't you understand such a simple logic?"

"The so-called 'body of flesh and blood' is a tool that intelligent creatures use to modify the material world. When a civilization develops to a certain point, it is only natural that they abandon their old body of flesh and blood and learn to control new tools.

"For example, human civilization invented many spiritual puppets that were controlled by crystal processors as tools. They discovered the advantages of spiritual puppets during their usage and developed artificial bodies to carry the souls of the spectral Cultivators.

"Maybe, very soon, many people will abandon their bodies of flesh and blood and replace them with shining bodies of steel. It seems that, in your vision of the future, you do not reject spiritual puppets with iron bones and steel as the main vehicles for human beings to travel in the material world, do you?

"If human beings are so open-minded, what's more, the Pangu Civilization Alliance is made of thirteen carbon-based creatures in different forms. The key is wisdom and ideology. It doesn't matter what they look like..
