Oh no! I'm surrounded by female ghosts!

The entire bedroom fell into a deathly silence.

It was so quiet that you could hear their rapid heartbeats.

Su Ming lowered his eyes and subconsciously looked at his palm.

At that moment, he began to doubt his own existence.

Is he real?

Is this body and this consciousness the original Su Ming, or the most perfect creation born from countless experiments in the back room?

Once this idea takes root, it's like a seed.

Su Ming turned his head with difficulty to look at Bai Xinglan.

"Senior, do you think the replica of the 'back room' will realize it's fake?"

"If its replication is perfect enough, replicating the memories, replicating the emotions, replicating the obsession with love and hate, replicating all the trajectories."

"Would the replica itself always believe it to be a real, living person?"

Bai Xinglan fell into a long silence.

After a long pause, she shook her head: "I don't know."

Those four short words made Su Ming's heart clench.

Fortunately, Bai Xinglan hadn't finished speaking.

She said, "The fact that we can detect it means it hasn't succeeded."

"but."

She turned her head to look at Su Ming: "I've heard you mention the second cleanup mechanism before."

"In 2020, the second cleanup mechanism showcased the eternally silent deep-sea city."

"So, is it possible that the back room is also part of the second cleaning mechanism?"

"For example, quietly replacing every human being on Earth."

"In that case..."

Bai Xinglan came to another conclusion that was extremely terrifying.

"Humans in 2026 may not be real humans; they could be people created by the harem."

"The only thing we can be sure of right now is that the only one who was truly a complete human being in life was the Weird."

This conclusion struck Su Ming like a thunderbolt, leaving him completely stunned.

He suddenly remembered the character he had raised.

Only after they die and become ghosts can they become the characters they raised.

A living person cannot become the character they have created.

Perhaps, the reason lies in this.

There is an insurmountable essential gap between a person created in the harem and a truly original and complete human being.

In 2026, the blue planet is a place where truth and falsehood intertwine, reality and illusion merge, and life and death are blurred, making it impossible to distinguish between them.

There is only one ironclad rule, clear and absolute.

To become a ghost, one must have been a complete human being in life.

Perhaps this is the core difference between a person created in the back chamber and a complete person.

A complete person becomes a ghost after death.

The people who are made in the chamber will disappear after they die.

After a long silence, Su Ming spoke: "1996."

"I can confirm that 1996 was the most original, most complete world, without any alteration whatsoever."

"Everyone from that era was real and complete."

"And I have always been getting closer to 1996."

He borrowed Wen Qi's way of thinking.

There's no need to care whether they're human or not.

Wen Qi never cared about any changes in 2026.

For her, 2026 is a false year, meaningless.

Its only value is that Su Ming was 17 years old that year.

What truly carries destiny and determines the outcome are the apocalyptic lines.

The doomsday line pieced together a false image of 2026.

And in 2026, a ticket to 1996 will finally be pieced together.

This ticket is the real meaning, and it's the beginning of everything.

This precisely confirms Chen Zhiwei's prediction: the end of the world.

All things return to nothingness, all matters return to zero.

This zero is the origin of everything, which is 1996.

When Su Ming found the perfect 1996.

He was able to be born in 2009.

There is no 2027 in the world.

Before Su Ming was born, he was never eighteen years old.

Bai Xinglan, standing to the side, was pondering a different question.

The back room was a perfect fit for her research field.

Even when Wen Qi, Chen Zhiwei, and Lin Jiajia came to the back room, none of them saw things as clearly as Bai Xinglan.

After all, everyone has their own area of ​​expertise.

"Based on my earlier guess."

"Since the family has always been growing on its own and has always been trying to have children."

"This indicates that it essentially belongs to a special life system."

Bai Xinglan raised her hand.

She was trying to sense the spiritual threads permeating the air in the back room.

However, since she had only recently become an Awakened, her abilities were not yet sufficient to detect the mental threads in the back room.

But this rudimentary perception ability alone made Su Ming realize for the first time how terrifying it was.

It is similar to Xu Qinghe's ability to hear minds; both belong to the category of idealistic abilities, which can materialize intangible things.

According to Su Ming's understanding.

They are inherently formless and intangible consciousness entities.

Consciousness is composed of mental threads.

If Bai Xinglan can grow up, she will be the one most likely to understand them.

The unknown is what makes it frightening.

That's because you don't understand.

But once you know the answer, it's no longer a source of fear; there will always be a way.

Thinking about this...

Su Ming's eyes lit up, and he looked at Bai Xinglan, saying, "Senior, I have some knowledge here that's perfect for you."

Deep-seated fears are a type of knowledge that is very suitable for Bai Xinglan.

In 2026, Su Ming bestowed this knowledge upon Bai Xinglan.

She then entered Earth and began collecting divine threads from all of humanity, preparing to launch an attack on the level of a turbid god.

It's important to know that Bai Xinglan hadn't yet reached the Destruction level at that time.

Even so, Wen Qi said that she was the most likely to be the first to step into the Turbid God level.

The upper limit of a character's strength is not limited by the upper limit of the Blue Star world.

Their potential strength is closely related to Su Ming's past world.

Su Ming's old world is already a level 5 scene.

It is strong enough to support the weight of a god-level being.

If it rises to level six in the future, it may even be able to bear the weight of the personification of Him.

The idealization of Him is the eighth stage that life can never reach.

To reach this level, one can only rely on Su Ming's blessing.

Based on Su Ming's understanding of them.

The highest known level of these entities is the fateful ring of level five pollution sources.

Converted to the correct value.

The level cap in the Old World should be level eight.

Once it reaches level eight, it will be able to bear the weight of the Ring of Destiny.

And the true form of the Ring of Destiny.

If Su Ming wasn't mistaken, the "Twelve Towers and Five Cities" he saw back then was the true form of the Ring of Destiny.

Its true form has always been in the old world.

The "Raising Ghosts" system was born from the constraints of fate.

When the scene reaches level eight, it's time for the Ring of Destiny to awaken.

Su Ming's self-completion was merely a transfer from the individual into the old world.

As long as the Old World doesn't reach level eight, the first cleansing mechanism will remain dormant.

Level seven is the highest, and that's enough.

"Deep-seated fears?"

Bai Xinglan looked at Su Ming with a puzzled expression.

Su Ming raised his hand and touched her forehead.

"I give you deep fear."

The moment the words left her lips, a hazy, mysterious pattern quietly appeared between Bai Xinglan's eyebrows.

This pattern caused her figure to suddenly become transparent.

The aura emanating from his body was transforming and surging at an incredible speed.

Su Ming stared at Bai Xinglan in shock.

He had absolutely no idea what was going on.

After a long while, Bai Xinglan opened her eyes.

She rubbed her temples thoughtfully: "How strange."

"I just saw a lot of black fog."

"There is another me in the black mist."

Hearing her words, Su Ming was very surprised and quickly said, "You've seen 2026."

The black fog is deep-space black fog.

After entering the daily chart at the end of 2016, it will actually stop in 2026.

He instantly grasped the key point.

He had instilled deep fear in Bai Xinglan back in 2026.

Now, deep-seated fear has been bestowed upon Bai Xinglan in 2016.

Knowledge can only be transferred, not destroyed.

But whether it's Bai Xinglan in 2026 or Bai Xinglan in 2016, they are essentially the same person.

Therefore, the knowledge was not transferred, but simply shared.

"So, now?"

Bai Xinglan nodded, a confident smile playing on her lips: "I can borrow the power of my future self."

In 2026, Bai Xinglan's strength will be a top-tier disaster.

In other words, she has already reached the fifth level.

This was truly an unexpected bonus.

A single blessing propelled her, who had just entered the Awakened Realm, directly to the fifth rank.

The next moment, Bai Xinglan looked around, her eyes clear and bright.

"Now, I can feel the omnipresent spiritual threads in the back room."

She walked towards Su Ming and took his hand.

"Baby, are you ready?"

"I'll take you to see the real back room."
