Chapter 314: Vol4 Ch39: Chain reaction

“Milord? Milord?” Mi Yi’s voice snapped Xu Fu out of his contemplation.

Looking at the world before him, Xu Fu felt nothing but a façade. Ever since one Xu Fu managed to break through the restraints of the Eye of Multitudes and observed his other ‘selves’ through his True Spirit, any Xu Fu who has awakened, or was simply able to observe their True Spirit would be able to access their shared information.

And this Xu Fu almost had his common sense overturned and broken through obtaining this information.

No one would be able to accept such facts so quickly, that they were only 1 out of an identical 8888, as well as the fact that they were only a pawn in some entity’s hands.

Then what exactly am I, what is the meaning of my existence, and where is my future heading?

Xu Fu was feeling unprecedented despair. Even when he became petrified and fell into the ocean, he was still fully confident that he would one day be able to return.

However, someone had just told him that both his personality and confidence were a product of the stone demon mask, and if he hadn’t picked it up back then, he would still have been the same coward who shot his comrade in order to escape.

“No, this isn’t who I am!” Xu Fu clenched the stone demon mask tightly, his blood aura continuously erupted from his body.

The towering presence caused Mi Yi to inadvertently retreat. He couldn’t understand why this Progenitor suddenly acted this way, could it be because he absorbed too many memories and went insane?

With a faint cracking noise, the stone demon mask slowly fractured, eventually shattering into pieces. Staring in surprise at the destroyed stone demon mask, Xu Fu suddenly snapped out of it.

Since I managed to destroy the stone demon mask that created me, as long as I continue to grow increasingly stronger, I will be able to surpass even Negary.

Reaffirming his confidence, Xu Fu returned his gaze to the person who appeared completely subservient in front of him.

Watching the stone demon mask shattering into pieces, Mi Yi held back the fluctuating emotions in his heart and kept up his infinite sense of respect towards Xu Fu in his mind.

After gaining access to the shared information between all of his parallel world selves, Xu Fu knew a lot of things, including information regarding this individual called Mi Yi. In one of the parallel worlds, due to an unknown factor, time was flowing slightly faster compared to the time in this world, so that world was around 3-4 years ahead.

In that world, Mi Yi was able to successfully take his chance and steal the unbroken demon stone mask, using it to evolve into a different kind of Progenitor, at the same time reaching the limit of Aura Summation. He reached a state of total synchronization of World – Man – Will, thus achieving the second level of awakening, which was also the second stage of release.

The Xu Fu of that timeline became partially petrified by Mi Yi, turned into a statue that could only speak, and left by his throne to display his glory.

Mi Yi was truly an impressive individual, regardless of if you were talking about his strength, measures, or capability to grasp opportunities; which was why he managed to succeed when Xu Fu was careless for a single moment.

Mi Yi’s body trembled out of fear, he had realized the killing intent contained within Xu Fu’s gaze, which led to him lowering his head lower.

“Why are you lowering your head?” Xu Fu suddenly laughed out loud and asked. Draping the clothing of the dead over his body, he told Mi Yi: “I can see your inner thoughts, as well as your ambitions and unwillingness to stay beneath others. If you get a chance, you will betray me without a bit of hesitation...”

“This subordinate wouldn’t...” Mi Yi prostrated with his head digging into the ground, his body trembling without stopping, perfectly putting his fear on display.

“Cease your acting, Mi Yi, I don’t mind your ambitions, as long as you display enough value for me to forgive such ambitions” while examining the information shared between his 300 other-selves, Xu Fu told Mi Yi: “Now, hand Aura Summation over to me”

Gather the entire strength of this world and flee? What a joke.

This Xu Fu wasn’t at all afraid of Negary. One could say that ignorance was bliss, or that he didn’t know his own limits, but regardless, he wasn’t scared into surrendering.

“Come to me, my enemies. Become my nutrients and aid me in breaking through this world’s limits” while looking into the distance, Xu Fu listened to Mi Yi’s explanation of Aura Summation and memorized every word.

Aura Summation and the undeads had a relationship of mutual restraint and promotion. For Xu Fu, the first stage of Man and Will synchronization carried zero difficulties, he already had the ability to do this when he was first converted by the stone demon mask, so the only thing that improved was that he could now systematically do it, which was a bit redundant for the undeads as a whole.

The true difficulty of Aura Summation lay in its second stage: World and Man synchronization, which humans could achieve if they were talented enough, coupled with a tiny factor of luck. However, this was nearly impossible for an undead.

This was because they inherited their ability from living statues, and synchronizing themselves with the World meant the same as suicide. If they tried to synchronize their essence with the world, they would be petrified before anything else; and since they couldn’t even pass this stage, they couldn’t possibly achieve World – Man – Will synchronization.

However, Mi Yi actually managed to do this later on. While using an undead body, he broke through the limit and reached a perfect synchronization of World – Man – Will, which rid him of the undead’s weakness and became a Progenitor who had surpassed their limits.

Since Mi Yi was able to do this, Xu Fu was confident that he would be able to do the same, or perhaps even better, because that would be the only way he could fulfil his ambitions of surpassing this world and defeating Negary.

Other than Aura Summation, there are other things.

Xu Fu’s eyes flickered. This generation’s heir of the Mi clan, Mi Ze, had managed to modify Aura Summation and created the Null Point technique, which was also an ingenious idea. By turning oneself into a Null Point, he would endure the attacks of others and accumulate aura, then reverse it to turn it into his own power.

As well as the power of others, like the Flame of Faith from Central Fu, the War Formation of the Empire, all the knowledge of the Ultra Space-Time Squad, as well as the shared information from every other Xu Fu.

Compared to other parallel worlds with their own uniqueness, the parallel world of this Xu Fu didn’t seem to have anything special.

If there isn’t anything, then I shall create it, I will definitely surpass this world.

Xu Fu was sensing an unprecedented sense of motivation, gaining inspiration from everything he came into contact with, manifesting as numerous ideas: “This is how it is; this is how it should be!”

Behind Xu Fu, Mi Yi’s evaluation of him increased by one step further, he was trying his best not to look back at the fragments of the stone demon mask. At this very moment, he was feeling a sense of loss, he purposely converted himself into an undead in order to display his talents, even helping the undeads find Xu Fu’s statue was purely for his final gambit.

He was confident that he would have been able to grasp the opportunity to become an entity who stood above all, but his confidence was now being shaken. With the destruction of the stone demon mask, one of the pillars of his plan had disappeared, and Xu Fu had shown himself to be much more powerful than Mi Yi had ever imagined.

No, there is still a chance, I still have a chance.

Mi Ze’s tentative plan, if successful, will give me another chance.

Mi Yi discarded every thought of retreat. He no longer had a path of retreat, and this was his personal choice. If he couldn’t grasp the chance to become the brightest sun, then he would burn away as the brightest spark, and his life would definitely not be wasted!

...

At another location, Mi Ze who was talking with the Ultra Space-Time Squad suddenly turned his head towards the far distance. He reached his hand towards his back, where a mark in the shape of a hand was slowly appearing and becoming hot. He could even faintly sense the immense willpower of those two with whom he shared the same origin.

He’s so unexpectedly powerful, perhaps I should also make some preparations.

Such a thought popped up in Mi Ze’s mind.

I had thought the Null Point technique would have been enough, but was I too naïve?
