Chapter 577: Experiment
With the exception of Lu Wen, a special case who was artifically brought out, everyone who left the Origin World gained some knowledge of the outside worlds history through various methods.
But this history was incomplete. For example, the history Gu Nan knew only concerned the World of Gods, not the Myriad Heavens, and there was no God of Twilight in the game since that figure came from the Myriad Heavens.
On the other hand, this history seemed capable of adjusting itself, because Daoist Yellow Springs saw a history that included Jiu Po instead of a history that developed normally without anomalies like transmigrators.
"Did something like this happen when Lu Wen came out?" Gu Nan thought for a long time and turned to Daoist Yellow Springs.
"No." Daoist Yellow Springs shook his head. "Lu Wen's soul has always been in my hands, and I later placed him in the Myriad Heavens But then he began to break free from my control."
Having said that, he smiled self-mockingly. "He actually ascended to Unified Dao earlier than I did. If not for the fact that he still cannot find me, I'm afraid he wouldve paid me a visit to settle accounts a long time ago."
After learning that the Origin World was just a small world, Lu Wen resolutely chose to not become a Saint there. He destroyed his own body and was taken outside by Daoist Yellow Springs while pretending to die from a Dao tribulation.
Of course it was impossible for such a decisive and resolute person to always be under Daoist Yellow Springs thumb. As long as he found an opportunity, he would establish his own forces.
But Lu Wens personality was none of Gu Nan's business. He just wanted to verify some of his conjectures through more experiments.
So Gu Nan returned to Earth again; this time, he found a person named Li Han.
Li Han was the first player to advance to the Third Round ever since theOrigin of Lightwas launched. This already happened several years ago.
So Li Han was already a somewhat rotund uncle when Gu Nan found him.
Li Hans passion for games still hadnt waned, but to him, Origin of Light was merely an excellent game that was popular for a while. Now, he rarely touched it.
Gu Nan found Li Han and directly extracted his soul from a distance without any intention of revealing himself.
Gu Nan similarly took this soul out of the Origin World, but Li Han's soul produced a different result.
Fu Cheng was pulled away by the dimensional wall and directly broke free from Gu Nan's control; random passersby were completely unaffected but disintegrated when they came into contact with the outside world.
Li Han's soul also broke free from Gu Nan's control, then shattered with a loud bang when it touched the dimensional wall.
The fate awaiting a shattered soul was naturally to completely dissipate in the void.
"Is there a difference in the souls strength?" Daoist Yellow Springs also noticed this third type of soul and immediately asked. If it wasnt a difference in knowledge, then the most likely reason was that the soul itself was not strong enough.
But Gu Nan shook his head a little.
Although he made contact with Fu Cheng and used the power of laws to extend her life, it did not actually have much effect on her soul.
For the sake of caution, Gu Nan simply found another Third Round player and also used laws to extend that persons life. The result proved that his conjecture wasnt wrong.
Regardless of the souls strength, Fu Cheng's uniqueness had still yet to be uncovered.
However, the result of this Third Round player's soul experiment was the same as Li Han's.
So at least one thing was certain nowsouls that possessed a good understanding of the outside world would indeed receive special treatment from the dimensional wall when leaving the Origin World.
Gu Nan couldn't help speculatingback when he left the Origin World, was it because his soul was taken away by the dimensional wall that he wandered for a few hundred more years?
"I need to find Fu Cheng," Gu Nan quickly decided when there was no further progress in the experiment.
He began a slow search around the Origin World. Although it was a rather large galaxy-type plane, with Gu Nan's current cultivation realm, it wouldn't take long to just scan the vicinity.
Gu Nan did not find Fu Cheng's soul but found some vague traces, which he determined were caused by the movement of her soul.
Fu Cheng's soul had indeed traveled through the dimensional wall, but now, he could no longer find its definite location.
Has it already broken free from the dimensional wall and gone to the two major worlds?
Gu Nan frowned slightly. The mechanism behind Fu Cheng's disappearance was somewhat beyond his expectations. If hed known this was the case, he would have unified the two worlds first and explored the mystery of the Origin World afterwards.
What Fu Cheng received was the World of Gods history, so it was very likely that she went to the World of Gods. Without forces spanning the two worlds, it would be very difficult to find Fu Cheng in the major planes.
"But even if shes going to rise, itll still take some time. I have to hurry." Gu Nan's gaze landed on the World of Gods. The remaining greater gods suddenly felt a chill for some inexplicable reason.
The World of Gods.
As the Unified Dao figures expected, the greater gods would never give up like this. Instead, they must seize this final opportunity to completely conquer the Myriad Heavens.
"We don't have much time." Dark Lady Daisy spoke up heavily, "It will be our turn to suffer once those Unified Dao cultivators are allowed to rebuild their Divine Kingdoms."
Baal said through gritted teeth, "The biggest problem now is the Evil God. If we can find a way to deal with him, we will still have the advantage."
Although part of Baals Godhead was destroyed by Gu Nan during the three-person ambush, that did not make him fear battle.
Gu Nan was able to hit him only because he tried to block Gu Nan's way. If he wholeheartedly wanted to escape, Gu Nan might not even be able to catch him.
Austin slowly said, "Ive looked through all the documents, but there is no record of the Evil God, not even any relevant information."
"Thats normal." Daisy replied, "The rumors about the Evil God are all vague references that appeared in some prophecies. Theyve never been clearly recorded."
In the World of Gods legends, the Evil God was more like a symbolic existence representing the incarnation of evil and all the evil existences in the world.
Precisely because this kind of description was too abstract, before Gu Nan appeared, very few people took the existence of Evil Gods seriously.
But for the current greater gods, not being able to find information on Gu Nan meant they couldnt find the opponent's weaknesses, let alone how to fight against him.
On the side, Boswell pondered for a long time, then finally ventured, "The Evil God may not necessarily have no weaknesses. As far as we know, he is just a normal greater god with an extremely powerful divine body."
The Ruler of Ashen Cyans words enlightened the others. Although this was an existence spoken of only in legends, it might be easier to find a countermeasure if they started from reality.
However, at this moment, an energy signature broke into the World of Gods without bothering to hide itself, causing the several greater gods expressions to change at once.
"How dare he come here alone!" Baal was the first to shout, having suffered two losses at Gu Nans hands.
But Austin frowned. "Be careful, this might be a trap."
Dark Lady Daisy looked at the unstable Baal and couldn't help speaking up from the side, "I'll go."
