Chapter 681: Ultimate Form, Higher-Dimensional Existence |
Su Yuan's body dissipated.
But it didn't completely vanish, leaving behind a faint glimmer of light.
The only remaining shred of Su Yuan's will existed within that glimmer of light.
This glimmer of light had fused everything about him, including his true name, soul, body, Dao Fruit, True Name Great Dao, False Name Great Dao, and all other aspects of Su Yuan's existence.
Su Yuan immediately noticed something different about this glimmer of light. It presented a peculiar form, existing in a superposition state of both being and not being!
This glimmer of light seemed to exist simultaneously in the past and future, above and below, left and right. It appeared right before his eyes yet felt distant, like an illusory particle yet absolutely real.
Even Su Yuan himself couldn't quite grasp this state.
But he could feel that this state was extremely powerful.
When his will wanted it to exist, it appeared in the void. When he wanted it to disappear, it seemed as if it didn't exist, vanishing completely without a trace.
"A quantum superposition state?" Su Yuan was surprised.
Using this glimmer of light as a source, he began to continuously split and proliferate. As he absorbed the Chaos Jade, he caused the light to undergo fission.
One glimmer of light became two, two became four.
It grew rapidly, and the further it went, the faster the changes became.
This recovery was extremely fast, but the consumption was also the greatest, over ten thousand times greater than before.
Finally, a luminous body condensed into shape, and in the blink of an eye, its face transformed into Su Yuan's features.
Su Yuan looked at his palm in confusion. He clenched his fist but felt nothing special.
"What's so special about a body formed from these two powers?"
With a thought, Su Yuan intended to activate the [World Traveler] trait.
But just by thinking about it, he instantly appeared inside No. 77 Mansion.
Although it was similar to his usual method of movement, this time, the [World Traveler] trait didn't seem to have been triggered.
He checked again.
The [True Name Jade Disc] was gone!
Su Yuan was stunned. He reached out, and the True Name Jade Disc recondensed, floating above his palm.
The True Name Jade Disc still existed.
But Su Yuan was astonished to discover that the fundamental composition of the True Name Jade Disc had become that special glimmer of light. Looking at the True Name Jade Disc felt like looking at himself.
A sudden realization dawned on Su Yuan. The True Name Jade Disc had completely merged with him, becoming part of his very being.
In other words, the True Name Jade Disc was Su Yuan, and Su Yuan was the True Name Jade Disc.
Su Yuan looked up and gazed around.
He directly saw streams of Chaos Dao Patterns flowing before his eyes. Many Dao Patterns interwove to form a stone, a fish, a courtyard, a lake, or an array.
He seemed to see the true face of the world.
All matter appeared to be composed of Chaos Dao Patterns arranged in combinations, giving off an extremely illusory feeling.
Only some items that were of a higher level than Su Yuan's gave him a sense of reality. For example, the fire vein underground was a condensed entity, its Chaos Dao Patterns incredibly dense.
Su Yuan stepped out again, arriving in Nothingness.
This time, Nothingness was no longer empty in his eyes.
He saw some flickering streams of light constantly flowing through Nothingness. Countless streams formed rivers, converging into a sea of light that illuminated everything around.
The Chaos that existed in Nothingness was merely islands and reefs within the sea of light, suspended in that luminous ocean.
The sea of light in Nothingness was also in a superposition state of both existing and not existing. When Su Yuan's will moved, the sea of light disappeared, turning into complete Nothingness. When he thought again, the sea of light reappeared, endlessly surging and flowing without pause.
With a thought, Su Yuan's body transformed into a stream of luminous water, merging into the sea of light in Nothingness.
Then, an immense amount of information flowed into Su Yuan's will.
This included the birth and destruction of countless Chaos, as well as a battle between a fallen Chaos Dominator and the Scavengers.
A flood of information rushed toward him. After receiving it for a while, Su Yuan decisively blocked the influx.
It took a long time before Su Yuan recovered from that special state, staring blankly into the distance.
"Information..."
Su Yuan murmured.
Finally, he somewhat understood what this special state was. It was the most fundamental form of information!
Whether it was a true name or a false name, both were information!
The collision between true name and false name had ultimately transformed into an indestructible, eternal point of informational light!
Nothingness could obliterate all matter, states, and even the Chaos Great Dao, but it could not erase information itself.
No matter how much information was eroded, it would exist forever.
Information needed no carrier. It would never disappear!
Even the most terrible calamities in the world were carriers of information, not its destroyers.
He suddenly understood why a Nothingness Dominator could advance by killing a Chaos Dominator.
Because after a Nothingness Dominator killed a Chaos Dominator, they could obtain the other's information, increasing their own information density, thereby raising their information priority.
In fact, Chaos Dominators could also plunder the information of Nothingness Dominators, but it required methods and a medium.
But Nothingness Dominators were naturally on the flip side of information, innately possessing the ability to seize it. That was why they had such a special ability.
Even among Nothingness Dominators, they could advance by plundering each other's information...
Su Yuan knew that this was just his personal understanding of everything in the world. Perhaps, in the eyes of others who had comprehended the ultimate form, Nothingness would appear as another form entirely.
But his current state could already be used to explain everything in the world.
Regardless, Su Yuan had transcended the categories of Chaos Dominator and Nothingness Dominator.
Although he was still at the Sixty-Nine Rank, his essence was completely different. He could be called the [First Observer], [Eternal Name], [Quantum King], [Lord of the Information Sea], and so on.
Su Yuan felt as if he had become omnipotent. In his eyes, whether it was offense, defense, artifacting, or alchemy, it all became the arrangement and combination of information and the comparison of priority. As long as the information priority was higher, the grade would naturally be higher.
The special fishing rod appeared in his hand. This was a rod that could fish across the heavens, but in his eyes, it became a rod that could fish random information from the information sea.
Su Yuan then took out the Myriad Treasures Heaven-Earth Cauldron and began directly rewriting the cauldron's fundamental core at its most essential level. Under Su Yuan's manipulation, the lowest-level structure of this Dominator Artifact was rewritten by him, and the information priority at the very foundation was elevated to the Sixty-Nine Rank tier.
During this process, Su Yuan consumed no extra materials. He merely expended a portion of his own information power, and this portion of power could be replenished by acquiring other information.
He was no longer an Artificer, but simply a porter of information.
