Volume 12 Interlude 6: Leisure Travel Chapter 25 The Will of the Ring
The ancient god in front of him was not a challenger that was difficult to advance into, but a real dimension that was difficult to advance into.
To be honest, this was something Lu Bai had not thought of before.
Theoretically speaking, the dimensional world created by the real dimension is likely to have the characteristics of its dimension. For example, Tianya is obviously the way of transformation, which is the kind of practice and pursuit of the truth.
If this dimensional world had the ability to ascend to heaven, Lu Bai would not have to meet the ancient god before realizing that the other side was the real dimension.
Of course, it is not the original body, but an existence similar to a clone.
Because the real dimension is completely expanded, they cannot move, or the dimensional membrane has no space for them to move.
Therefore, if the real dimension wants to move more freely, it can only create clones.
However, the clone in the real dimension also has various problems, so in many cases it can only serve as a low- to medium-level combat force, or a spokesperson who arrives in person.
The practical significance itself is not that great.
"Neither. Your appearance is actually a good thing for me." The ancient god said so. His will to abandon the mundane world and transform himself wholeheartedly was weakened unprecedentedly at this moment.
"You have to understand one thing. The reason I brought humans here is to make them change."
The ancient god's words made Lu Bai freeze.
He originally thought that humans came to this world for some other reason, and then the transformation of the outliers attracted Tianya's attention.
But I didn’t expect that human memes came because of Tianya, and all this is related to Tianya.
"The real dimension is an important part of this world. It constitutes the basic structure of this world." The ancient god continued: "But it does not mean that we have no other identities besides the real dimension."
"So, what other identities do you have, Mr. Tianya?" Lu Bai asked directly. Since the other party was willing to tell him this, it meant that the other party actually intended to extend this topic.
"Reader." The ancient god's words made Lu Bai stunned, and then he heard the ancient god continue: "You can also call it an observer."
"Our goal is to find individuals who are truly capable of transformation and who can transcend human limitations."
"This is the will of the circle."
"And now, you are the subject of our observation. You can be called the 'protagonist'. Of course, you are only a backup protagonist for now." As he spoke, the ancient god pushed a little starlight towards Lu Bai.
It was a circular ring, about the same size as the Ring of Life and Death. This made Lu Bai feel that he might be inseparable from ring-related things.
"I'm just a backup protagonist?" Lu Bai frowned, wanting to continue looking for some relevant information.
"That's right, you are the third-generation alternative protagonist." And on this point, the ancient god was also willing to provide some information.
"I'm sure you've guessed it. The Outliers are the second generation."
"So where is the real protagonist?" Lu Bai asked. He and the rogue who turned into the Immortal King are both candidate protagonists, so there must be an existing protagonist.
“I can’t tell you this.” The starry sky of the Ancient God flickered for a moment, and that was His smile: “You will definitely meet in the future.”
"Also, you don't have to worry too much about me. I'm just an observer. Although I will perform my duties in the real dimension, I rarely interfere with the outside world in other aspects, and I will not directly take action against the candidate protagonists."
"I contacted you this time only because you discovered the ring, which means you have the possibility of mastering the power of the ring."
"As for what the circle is, don't ask too much. This question will only make sense once you stand at the top."
This conversation ended in such a hasty manner.
Lu Bai summed up some information, that is, the world in front of him is not everything.
He originally thought that the basic worldview of this world was that a group of real dimensions were competing for the possibility of the future of the multiverse.
After the God of a Thousand Dimensions pointed out that He was an innovator, there was only one more dispute over the theme of the multiverse, which was essentially a fight over future possibilities.
But now Tianya's appearance tells Lu Bai that the fight for possibilities is not everything.
Behind it all lies an organization called The Circle, which guides the existence of the protagonists, who are the readers.
"Is this treating everything as a novel?" Lu Bai thought, but there was nothing special about it.
If he wanted, he could now choose a dimensional world, extract its world records, and then weave it into a novel for people to read.
For example, the saints’ reading of world records is a similar situation.
Therefore, there is nothing to be surprised about. Even if someone is recording everything about him in the way of reading world records, it is a very normal thing.
Lu Bai wrote down this information, and similarly, he also kept the ring given by the ancient god.
The ring itself has no power, and Lu Bai seems to be able to destroy it with just a little force. There is nothing special about its material and properties.
But the feeling it gave people was slightly different, but Lu Bai couldn't sense the specific difference right now.
I just vaguely felt that the ring and the dust both had an unusual aura, and it seemed that they were both from outside.
As for where this "outside" was, Lu Bai had no idea.
Anyway, the dimensional membrane is so large that there is always a point where it cannot be fully explored.
And because of the interference from other real dimensions , even the underworld can hardly know everything about the dimensional membrane.
And the dimensional membrane is the original shape of this large multiverse, which does not mean that only the dimensional membrane will exist in the future.
"There are so many secrets in this world." Lu Bai thought that this was a good thing, otherwise the foreseeable future would be stagnant.
It is precisely because of the constant opposition between constancy and change that this world is driving the emergence of various real dimensions.
There were originally only a few possible futures, but now there are countless possibilities.
Even the real dimension, which was originally omniscient and omnipotent, can only guarantee a certain degree of future changes within its own field.
This is what makes this world so wonderful.
Because the future is infinite.
After getting what he wanted, Lu Bai did not stay for too long, but chose to leave this world directly.
His clone still needs to be honed, and he will probably have to go to some dimensional worlds with higher war intensity next.
As for the world today, his influence has already been left, but the main body will still be humans and a series of experiments on humans.
After all, the ancient gods created this dimensional universe for the sake of mankind.
Including Saint Thirteen, His existence is also to protect mankind's progress.
Even if Lu Bai hadn't happened, humans would be fine. If necessary, Saint Thirteen would step in and take sides.
In other words, the previous galactic barrier was already a means for him to take sides.
After Lu Bai left, the battle on the Blue Water Planet continued. Those humans who were unwilling to accept defeat tried desperately to drag humans down with them, but in the end, they were stopped by the mechas and the super-powered people.
Subsequently, the "Peace Agreement" was officially declared abolished, and humans gained independent racial rights.
At the same time, the era of great human construction has officially arrived.
In this era, there are all kinds of chaotic situations.
Following Lu Bai's actions, all humans awakened their superpowers.
With power, one naturally wants to have an environment that matches that power.
Personal strength has been greatly improved in this position.
At the same time, although the previous senior government officials could not be considered corrupt and incompetent, they were definitely harboring corruption and filth.
Many of the humans in there are useless.
Many people have been bribed by aliens. They are not considered insiders, but they can be considered informants.
There are even more people who rely on the alien insider system and cause many problems.
Now, all these ills have erupted.
The human beings of the Blue Water Planet have ushered in unprecedented advancement, but also unprecedented chaos.
At this time, in order to obtain the qualifications to travel to the outer universe, the aliens began to continuously sponsor different humans.
Humankind entered a chaotic warlord era, with stone tablets erected in various regions as core areas, and many chaotic battles were fought.
Perhaps it will take some time for the war to stop and eventually lead to complete unification.
After all, the human united government had already been unified before.
The concept of unity is embedded in the genes of all human beings.
As for Hu Niu, she has already started the process of becoming a legend.
After Lu Bai sent a reference for Gourd Taoist's promotion, he began his own journey.
To be honest, although he is a traveler, the dimensional worlds that Lu Bai has visited are not even a fraction of those of some travelers.
It is really that Lu Bai's growth rate is too fast. There has always been a force behind him pushing him to grow quickly.
Now these travel basics need to be completed.
Lu Bai no longer used his authority as the Crown Prince of the Netherworld to search for intelligence about the dimensional world. Instead, he went to different dimensional worlds based on some general information.
For example, Lu Bai searched for a dimensional world rich in "battle" elements.
The corresponding dimension information was quickly obtained.
According to information records, in this dimensional world, everyone has the possibility of a duel every day and every moment.
Duels have become an everyday element in this dimensional world, from the struggle for world power to the bargaining over vegetable prices with vendors. A duel may result from a disagreement.
So Lu Bai chose this dimensional world and went to that dimensional world through the traveler's channel.
And as expected, it just happened to coincide with the annual duel competition in this dimensional world.
Through duels, the world's number one will be selected and become the world leader.
