Chapter 14 The Gift of the Sage

Faced with your tearful pleas, Nuwa was caught in a mental storm...

Nuwa: ... (Rebooting)

Nuwa: ... (During the second restart)

Nuwa: ... (CPU unresponsive...)

It's clear that even a sage, who claims to be the executor of the Heavenly Dao, would find it difficult to comprehend such a bombardment of high-end information that exceeds the limits of his knowledge base.

However, this does not mean she is weak, but only that the existence of "New Game Plus" is extremely overpowered for any strong person, and people have no concept of this at all.

But a sage is still a sage. After suddenly encountering supermodel knowledge and crashing, Nuwa quickly made the most accurate choice!

Nuwa's expression suddenly turned serious. An invisible pressure from the second Heavenly Dao Saint in the history of the primordial world rose up, sealing off the secrets of heaven in the shortest time. Then, with a flick of her hand, she shattered the vast Heavenly Dao laws throughout the entire Eastern Wilderness region.

[Heavenly Dao: (Data corrupted, system crashing and restarting...)]

[All Saints: (Network not responding...)]

After completing the necessary secrecy procedures, Nuwa solemnly told you, "You only have half an incense stick's time. During this time, everything you say and do will remain unknown to the Heavenly Dao and the Sages. You must tell her everything you know as much as possible. Once the time is up, the Heavenly Dao's annihilation will come!"

You were terrified, unable to believe that even a sage couldn't cover up your misdeeds. But remembering you had a second chance, you finally calmed down and began to tell the sage everything you knew from your two lives. The sage listened attentively, and a look of realization gradually appeared on his face...

[After a long silence, the Sage suddenly stopped you from continuing to confide. She...she sighed, and then solemnly told you that the secrets you possessed were far more than this. If you truly could reverse time, then next time, never again reveal any information without the Sage's protection.]

You didn't understand, but you still nodded in acceptance.

Nuwa pointed again, and a point of seven-colored light fell directly into your forehead... The next moment, she looked up and sighed, and when she looked down again, you, a dignified immortal, had died on the spot because you couldn't catch your breath...

You died. A wrong choice led to a wrong ending, but perhaps it wasn't so bad, because you knew you had a chance to start over. This choice was just a trial and error.

[Ding! A gift from a Primordial Origin Level figure has been detected. Bind?]

A being of the Origin level?!

Zhao Si knew, of course, that this referred to the wisp of seven-colored light that Nuwa had illuminated before the protagonist's death, but he was genuinely curious about its specifics.

"Hopefully it's a transcendent item that can enhance my power... Binding!"

[A gift already bound to a Primordial Origin-level figure: "The Dao Fruit from Nuwa!"]

[“The Dao Fruit from Nuwa”: A gift given by the Heavenly Sage Nuwa to a human dragon chieftain on a certain day in the 365th year of the Demon Calendar, the Seventh Cycle, and the Third Cycle. It is a portion of Nuwa's power derived from her own Sage Dao Fruit. Once bound, it grants the exclusive Sage power of “Creating Something from Nothing,” allowing one to create primordial spiritual energy out of thin air!]

The fruits of sainthood?! Something created from nothing?!

Zhao Si was stunned for a moment, then turned pale with shock:

"Isn't this just a machine for generating innate spiritual energy?!"

Oh no, the thing Zhao Si feared most has finally arrived!

Although the three gifts added a few primordial elements to the real world, neither "demon script," "merit," nor "dragon blood" will have a significant impact on the real world in the short term.

The first two are language and writing, which are insignificant, and merit, which are only effective in the context of the primordial world and have virtually no effect in reality. "Dragon blood" is just a drop of blood, and only by consuming it can a creature gain power beyond the mortal realm.

But this Sage's Dao Fruit is clearly a spiritual energy generator. If it were to actually create innate spiritual energy in reality, that would be terrifying.

What does spiritual energy represent?

It represents the ability of an individual to directly interfere with material conditions through consciousness, which is the most direct manifestation of extraordinary power. Even if one does not understand cultivation techniques, as long as one lives in a spiritual environment, it is enough to obtain the power to break the rules of real society!

What's even more dangerous is that the spiritual energy here isn't ordinary spiritual energy, but rather the innate spiritual energy unique to the primordial world. We don't know exactly what's special about it, but it's definitely more powerful than ordinary spiritual energy...

"Finally... there's no escaping it anymore?"

Zhao Si lowered her head blankly, and then saw a mysterious, multicolored light burst out of the phone screen.

The colorful light danced around in reality like sprites, seemingly expressing its curiosity about this world.

Then, it suddenly plummeted and landed directly on Zhao Si's head...

There were no extraordinary celestial phenomena, nor any supernatural occurrences.

In reality, there was no auspicious purple clouds rising from the east for thousands of miles, and Zhao Si himself did not become an immortal or saint on the spot. Everything seemed to be as ordinary as usual.

But only Zhao Si could sense that an indescribable aura was spreading outwards from him, soon filling the entire room. The aura was like gas but not gas; it resembled gas in form, but it was not a physical entity. Instead, it was like a kind of ethereal spiritual "matter".

It is both matter and not matter; if you call it consciousness, it also has an objective form of existence. If you had to describe it, it would be "formless and without substance"—in short, mysterious beyond mystery…

Zhao Si tried to gather them together using his imagination, and succeeded without any difficulty. As soon as he had the thought, the innate spiritual energy nearby obeyed his idea, gathering into a ball of energy, and changing into one shape after another according to his other thoughts:

Flowers, trees, birds, beasts, fish, insects, all kinds of people, mythical dragons... everything Zhao Si could imagine, it could faithfully transform into.

But the more faithful and accurate it is, the deeper Zhao Si's despair becomes.

"It's over, spiritual energy really can directly respond to consciousness..."

Meow?

The fat cat, who had just fallen asleep, seemed to sense something, opened its eyes in confusion, and began to look around.

Soon, it naturally discovered the presence of spiritual energy. The cat tilted its head curiously, and the spiritual energy in front of it inexplicably changed shape, showing images of mice, flowers and plants, cat food, garbage heaps... and even the image of Zhao Si.

It mastered the art of using spiritual energy without any instruction and was having a great time doing so...

"The entry barrier is too low!"

Zhao Si grew increasingly desperate. Even this stupid cat could understand it instantly. He dared not think about what the future world would be like.

"Fortunately, the room was locked during the game, and the spiritual energy couldn't escape."

As the spiritual energy emitted by the Dao Fruit increased, Zhao Si keenly noticed another piece of good news:

The density of spiritual energy in the room is increasing, from being extremely thin at the beginning to having colorful light appearing in the air. It is clear that it cannot break through the spatial blockade of the game and can only be confined to the room.

For Zhao Si, this was a stroke of good luck amidst misfortune. Although he still had to face the problem of spiritual energy flowing into the outside world in the future, at least he could keep it trapped for a short period of time.

Furthermore, if your room becomes a concentrated area of ​​spiritual energy, doesn't that mean you can enjoy the benefits of spiritual energy before others?

As long as you take the lead, you can rely on the future rewards of the game to maintain your advantage and always have an absolute edge to maintain world order. If you are strong enough, you can turn the tide...

Thinking of this, Zhao Si breathed a sigh of relief and was grateful for the game's mechanism of locking rooms during periods without updates.

"Then let's continue the game!"

Zhao Si tried to calm herself down from her earlier excitement and clicked "Continue Game" with great anticipation:

"This time, if I could turn back time to the previous option, I would have to hide the protagonist's secret from Nuwa..."

[Ding! First time a gift from a Source-level character detected. System update in progress, lasting one month. During this time, players are free to leave the room and move around freely. Please maintain a positive mindset and a healthy diet, as a healthy mind and body are beneficial to the game...]

In an instant, Zhao Si's face froze.
