At the same time, but the crazy

Chapter 596 Original State

The initial supernatural powers were so insignificant to those scientists.

In their eyes, mere tricks like setting fires, ice, and electricity are far inferior to those of an ordinary soldier equipped with standard weapons.

Even those so-called extraordinary strongmen, those legendary beings, are no different from ants on the roadside in front of a human soldier wearing standard individual combat gear.

While humans were curious about this extraordinary power, after conducting a series of studies on the prisoners, they confirmed the existence of something they called 'free-floating energy' in the outer planes.

However, the indigenous creatures can absorb and utilize this energy through training and by using their bodily instincts.

This rudimentary approach was scorned by scientists at the time.

This free-floating energy of heaven and earth is considered omnipotent, yet these natives turned it into flames and lightning to strike people.

In the eyes of those scientists, this was simply like primitive people swinging an atomic bomb at someone—the kind of physical attack, utterly foolish.

But when it comes to extraordinary energy itself, human scientists are filled with a primal desire to explore.

They quickly analyzed it and successfully incorporated it into the human civilization system itself.

Having gained extraordinary energy, and combined with the then-advanced biological gene therapy technology, the average human lifespan broke through the 100,000-year mark for the first time; the precise figure is... 108,000 years.

Thus, when lifespan was no longer a concern, the magnificent era of the Great Cosmic Migration officially began.

Humanity's development and application of extraordinary energy has led to an astonishingly rapid pace of weapon and equipment iteration.

The birth of the 'super mech' was a landmark product of that era.

Using technological means to replicate the energy cycle within the body of extraordinary beings, coupled with elite human pilots enhanced by extraordinary energy.

The difference in their combat capabilities was like that between colonists and natives.

Having tasted the benefits, humanity then went against the tide of these psychic energies.

From low magic to medium magic, from medium magic to high magic... humanity conquered plane after plane in this way.

Eventually, humanity discovered the 'primordial continent'.

That is the core of the multiverse, and the only permanent hypermagic plane in the multiverse.

From the perspective of human civilization at that time...

This is a land blessed by humankind!
This is the promised land of mankind!
This is a great new continent that belongs exclusively to humankind!

Thus, the Great March broke out.

This human civilization from a magic-free universe, with its massive fleet of warships that blot out the sky, carrying countless top-tier superhuman mechs and numerous super-limit-level strategic weapons capable of easily destroying an entire galaxy, marched into the primordial continent in a mighty force.

In their view, this was just like the previous expeditions; success was simply a matter of course.

Humanity will be able to easily take over this blessed land.

And then there, humanity... encountered the Holy Order.

The holy position is an inevitable choice in the evolution of the multiverse.

Once an extraordinary individual reaches the pinnacle of cultivation, relying on igniting the light of an immortal soul and a profound understanding of the rules of the multiverse, a saintly position will inevitably emerge.

In the primordial continent at that time, the followers of the innate demon gods, countless demon races, and the native humans of the primordial continent each gave birth to sainthood, forming the three major factions that were the first to emerge in the primordial continent.

Moreover, these saintly positions are different from most of the saintly positions of the myriad races in the prehistoric world; they were attained through their own cultivation step by step.

Among them, the demon race is the strongest, followed by their innate relatives, and then the prehistoric humans.

When this human civilization, which came from the edge of the multiverse and called itself Earth, stepped into the primordial continent with an arrogant and domineering attitude, the myriad demons and their innate relatives were the first to be attacked and slaughtered.

Meanwhile, the human camp on the prehistoric continent was met with an extremely arrogant diplomatic delegation sent by Earth civilization.

That human civilization on Earth was far too powerful, and far too smooth sailing.

They do not reject humans from other dimensions. As fellow human beings, they even harbor the lofty ideal of liberating all suffering compatriots in the multiverse.

However, ideals are often grand, but reality is often harsh, and deviations always occur during actual implementation.

This discrepancy is what is known as 'first-generation second-class treatment'.

This is racial discrimination that is absolutely forbidden in their original legal system.

However, those who actually carried out the work took it for granted.

Their logic is: the glory of human civilization on Earth was built up through the efforts and struggles of elites like us.

The fact that you 'native humans' can join our great interstellar civilization family is already a shining example of our highly civilized society.

The first generation of 'native humans' they encountered were all uncivilized savages.

Only when their descendants receive the advanced education of our Earth civilization and are fully assimilated and integrated can they be considered as our own people.

Therefore, it is already extremely kind and generous of us to be able to treat you as 'second-class citizens'.

Otherwise, you should go and see what happened to those alien races.

This deep-seated arrogance had the direct consequence of the human camp on the prehistoric continent standing by and watching coldly, even secretly communicating with the innate relatives and the myriad demon camp.

Even so, the technological power of human civilization on Earth is truly immense.

It is so powerful that it crushes all beings that are not at the Saint level with a dimensional reduction-like attack.

Their various technological weapons have already touched upon the level of rules, and even some aspects of authority.

Even with ordinary saints, or even high-ranking saints personally taking action, they were still crushed by Earth's human civilization with its massive fleet and terrifying weaponry.

They even managed to capture several saints, who were supposedly to be sent back to the Academia Sinica for thorough, live anatomical studies, from the soul to the origin.

Finally... the beings at the Innate level have stepped down.

The hallmark of the innate level is mastery over the origin, allowing one to modify the laws of the universe to a certain extent within their respective domain. For example, one can alter the speed of light in an instant…

For a technological civilization, such an existence would be devastating.

Technological creations of human civilization are prohibited directly at the level of laws.

Moreover, the existence of innate level beings caused the core of the Earth fleet to overload and explode in the blink of an eye.

Afterwards, the Holy Ones, along with almost all the surviving superhumans, crossed one plane after another, beginning a bloody hunt for human civilization on Earth.

The Earth's human civilization suffered a crushing defeat, a second defeat, a third defeat...

Even with a constellation of brilliant top scientists, the defeat in the war came so swiftly and devastatingly.

They simply didn't have enough time to develop their technology to a level where they could contend with the innate nature.

Their home star system, their original plane, had already been completely breached by the enraged Holy Alliance.

That was a horrific massacre.

All the inhabitants of that Earth's human civilization, regardless of age, gender, or infertility, were slaughtered.

This is to demonstrate the punishment for mortals who offend the divine authority of the saints, and also to completely sever any possibility of this terrible technological civilization making a comeback.

But... it's as if human civilization on Earth is protected by multiple forces...

In the final moments of annihilation, a small group of top scientists and a few elite citizens barely managed to escape, thanks to the selfless sacrifice and information cover of the vast majority of the army.

They escaped to the 'Dead Zone' at the very edge of the multiverse, where supernatural energy flows like water from high to low.

The Primordial Plane is the highest level of the entire multiverse, and the closer it is to the Primordial Continent, the higher its energy level.

At the edge, however, lies a region completely devoid of extraordinary energy...

That's a place even saints wouldn't want to stay for a second longer, because it frantically absorbs all extraordinary energy, even the life force of living beings.

The more important reason is that they believe that without the support of supernatural energy, these humans are no longer able to make a comeback.

The lifespans of the Earth's surviving humans who fled there plummeted from an average of over 100,000 years to less than a century due to drastic environmental changes.

Just like their original ancestors, those who had not yet left their home planet and ventured into outer space.

However, these scientists, these remnants of humanity, did not give up. They took away the last and most precious treasure of that glorious human civilization…

Science, knowledge, and...

A boundless hatred powerful enough to incinerate the entire multiverse!

This hatred is so terrible, so deeply ingrained.

From the first generation of survivors who fled, they trained themselves and educated their offspring in a near-self-destructive manner.

At the same time, their political system has completely transformed from an enlightened, inclusive, and proactive interstellar democracy into a cold, efficient, extremely xenophobic, and ruthless revenge-oriented military authoritarian system.

Development! Development at all costs!

Progress! Progress that squeezes every last drop of brainpower out of us!

Advance technology! Invest all resources in scientific and technological research and development!

Generation after generation of humanity on Earth has grown up under the suffocating and terrifying imprint of this ideology of revenge.

Even in such extremely harsh conditions, their number of scientists remained astonishingly high.

The probability of producing those exceptionally talented scientists remains exactly the same as during the peak of their civilization, as if blessed by the will of the entire civilization.

One hundred years, two hundred years... one thousand years...

Until a full ten thousand years later.

For those high-ranking saints, ten thousand years might just be a short period of time for them to retreat into seclusion and absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

But for this human civilization on Earth, reborn from hatred, it took hundreds of generations—enduring painstaking effort and humiliation—all for the sake of avenging that unforgettable genocide and the destruction of their civilization!

Finally, Kung Fu pays off.

This civilization, struggling in dire straits, successfully advanced its technology to a level that was capable of confronting and even surpassing the innate origin!
They frantically created countless terrifying weapons containing primordial power.

Those Earthling warriors who harbored a great will for revenge even voluntarily merged their souls and consciousness into these cold war machines, transforming into weapon souls that existed solely for revenge!

This time, it's their turn.

Just like their ancestors, the expedition began once again.

This time, however, there was no longer any benevolent thought of 'absorbing fellow human beings', nor any naive idea that 'different humans are of the same origin'.

All the extraterrestrial beings encountered on the path of revenge, whether they were the ancient humans who stood idly by or the alien races who participated in the siege, faced only two fates—

Either be completely erased, from body to soul, leaving no trace!
Alternatively, the entire race may be captured and their life factors altered through brutal genetic modification, turning them into eternal slaves—tool-like slaves who would never even conceive of resistance!
By exploiting the resources of each plane along the way, when they reached the Primordial Continent, this human force had already built an army beyond imagination.

All the saints who participated in the war that year, whether ordinary, high-level, or innate, were completely destroyed by them using inconceivable technological means!

This is the power of technological civilization: once the technology reaches a certain level, large-scale production becomes possible.

Faced with such a massive number, even those of the highest and most revered innate saintly status could only perish.

Its immortal, sacred essence was forcibly extracted from the long river of rules in the multiverse and transformed into the eternal spoils of this vengeful civilization, as well as the super psionic source that drives their war machines!

In this battle, human civilization on Earth emerged victorious!
A complete and utter victory!

Then, after discussions between the Supreme Military Council and all the descendants of the Avengers, they did something.

A terrifying event that will leave a lasting mark on the history of the multiverse and could fundamentally prevent the resurgence of sainthood...

That means they're planning to... ban... the extraordinary!
