Chapter 735: The situation has changed
Li Yang thought for a while, then said:
"We need more information."
"Although we can now observe changes in the entire multiverse, we don't know the source of this change yet."
"According to a human mindset...we should actually investigate some of the most severely affected universes and collect some evidence."
[Origin] agreed and said: "That's great. Through direct observation, we may find some details that we can't see from here."
Li Yang nodded: "Okay, that's it."
"Let's first select a few universes with the most dramatic changes, and then investigate separately."
[Origin]'s face showed some worry:
"It may be dangerous to act separately. We I wonder what the current situation of those universes is like..."
Li Yang smiled: "Why, are you scared?"
"This is your own disk, what are you afraid of?"
"Besides, acting separately will allow us to investigate more universes and improve efficiency."
[Origin] thought for a while, and finally agreed to Li Yang's proposal:
"I understand, but we'd better keep in touch."
"If you encounter any danger, notify the other party immediately."
Li Yang nodded and agreed: "Okay, whatever."
"No more idle talk, let's start choosing targets quickly."
Origin closed his eyes slightly, analyzed the observation data he could get from various universes at a very fast speed, and finally selected five universes with the most drastic changes as the investigation targets.
But before setting off, Li Yang suddenly thought of something and asked slowly:
"By the way, you said there are some beings older than you..."
"How much do you know about them?"
[Origin] pondered for a moment and replied: "It's just a guess... The power of those beings is far beyond our imagination. They are completely capable of causing such a huge change."
"But we don't have enough evidence to prove this now."
Li Yang nodded: "Okay, I understand."
"When investigating, it's best to pay attention to clues in this regard."
After getting ready, Li Yang and [Origin] chose their target universes and prepared to start the investigation.
Just as the two were about to part, [Origin] suddenly spoke:
"Li Yang, no matter what happens, please be careful."
"I have a hunch that this time we may face something beyond our imagination."
Li Yang showed a confident smile: "Don't worry, I will. You should be careful too."
After that, the two embarked on their journeys, heading towards unknown dangers.
The first target chosen by Li Yang was a universe named [Starfall].
According to observation data, this universe is undergoing a strange change.
All stars are aging at an incredible speed, but new stars cannot form.
When Li Yang arrived at this universe, he was shocked by the scene in front of him.
The entire universe was shrouded in darkness, and the few remaining stars were also rapidly decaying, emitting a weak light.
He had seen similar situations in the system's data universe.
This is a sign that the universe is dying.
"This..." Li Yang frowned and said to himself, "What happened?"
At this moment, he suddenly felt a strange energy fluctuation.
The energy seemed to come from the depths of the universe, full of an indescribable old breath.
A gleam of light flashed in Li Yang's eyes: "It means...it seems that some uninvited guests sneaked in..."
As the distance shortened, the old and mysterious breath became stronger.
Li Yang's heartbeat accelerated involuntarily, both nervous and excited.
Sure enough, in the center of a dead star field, a shocking scene was seen:
A huge black vortex was slowly rotating, swallowing all the surrounding matter and energy.
In the center of the vortex, a vague human figure was vaguely seen.
The human figure seemed to notice Li Yang's arrival and slowly turned around.
Although he couldn't see the face clearly, Li Yang could feel that the other party was looking at him. An invisible pressure instantly enveloped him.
"Who are you?" Li Yang asked calmly.
The humanoid figure did not answer, but just raised his hand gently.
In an instant, Li Yang felt that the space around him began to distort and deform, as if to tear him apart.
Li Yang quickly released several [High Nuts], forming a barrier around his body.
But even so, he still felt waves of severe pain, as if his body was about to be torn apart.
"What do you mean..." Li Yang gritted his teeth and said, "It seems that you are not a good person."
As he said that, almost all the legendary plants he could use were released without reservation.
[Star Piercer·Pea Shooter]
[World Devourer·Big Mouth Flower]
[...]
However, facing this mysterious existence, the attacks of those plants were like stones thrown into the sea, without causing any waves.
The humanoid figure seemed to have some meaning and stopped attacking Li Yang.
It tilted its head, as if looking at this tiny creature that dared to challenge it.
Li Yang paused for a moment, a little cold sweat on his forehead.
He knew that he had encountered a powerful being far beyond his imagination.
But even so, he had no intention of retreating.
"I ask again... What on earth are you? Why do you do these things?" Li Yang asked again.
This time, the humanoid silhouette finally spoke. Its voice seemed to come from eternity, full of endless vicissitudes:
"I am the origin and the end. I am creation and destruction."
"This universe has come to an end, it's time for it to be reborn."
Li Yang frowned and said: "Rebirth? You call this rebirth?"
The existence shook his head gently: "You still don't understand... Destruction and rebirth are two sides of the same coin."
"Only complete destruction can bring about true rebirth."
Li Yang sneered: "Have you considered the life in this universe? Should they sacrifice for your so-called rebirth?"
The existence was silent for a moment, and then said: "Individual life is insignificant in front of the cycle of the universe. For a greater goal, sacrifice is necessary."
Li Yang laughed in anger: "Oh, it's so high-sounding. Who gave you the power to decide the fate of a universe?"
The existence seemed a little confused: "Power? I don't need anyone's authorization."
"The meaning of my existence is to maintain the balance here."
"This is my mission and my instinct."
Li Yang said coldly: "Okay... Let's try it."
As he said, Li Yang released thousands of plants again, ready to attack.
But at this moment, he suddenly felt dizzy. The scene in front of him began to distort and deform, as if it was about to be torn apart.
"What's going on?" Li Yang was shocked.
Immediately afterwards, he heard the anxious voice of [Origin]: "Li Yang! Come back quickly! The situation has changed!"
Before Li Yang could respond, he felt that he was pulled by a powerful force and left the [Meteoric] universe in an instant.
When Li Yang came to his senses, he found himself back at the observatory.
At this time, [Origin] was looking at him solemnly.
