Mystery: The New Black Emperor Descends

Chapter 755 The Power of the Past

The moment the barrier left by the original Creator became more solid, all the "gift recipients" in the real world looked up at the sky.

Without exception, they suddenly realized that their level had "inexplicably" dropped; in order to use a sequence analogy, they had suddenly dropped the level of two sequences.

Some of the "gifted ones" even felt that their level was three sequences lower. Although they did not understand what was going on, they knew that something big must have happened in the extraordinary world.

……

In mid-air in the center of Full Moon Lake, Hobert wanted to use his "utilization" ability to extend the duration of the "original" barrier, but he found that while he could strengthen the barrier, he couldn't perform any further operations.

But His actions just now were enough to make the five gods in heaven exchange glances again: This is the power of the past!

The five of them transformed into human form and nodded to Hobert, knowing that their mission in the astral plane would be much easier before the end of the world.

Hobert waved to the five gods, then looked at the two banks of Full Moon Lake. All his hard work back then had vanished, and the entire South Colson region had become a forbidden zone for normal creatures.

Seeing this, Hobart suddenly grinned. Before becoming the Old One, He could only accept this fact and rebuild it, but it was different after becoming the Old One.

Hobert remained in his ancient mythological state, spreading his spirituality throughout the entire South Colson region, and then "changed" the "fallen mother" descending, causing everything around him to change as a result.

Because of the arrival of the "Fallen Mother Goddess," all life around her underwent a mutation.

Now the "Disorderly Ones" do not accept this "outcome" and "change" it. As a result, the monsters around them have turned back into humans and various animals, and the plants with powerful attack capabilities have turned back into vegetables and fruit trees, wild grasses and large forests in the mountains!

Tourists gazed at the center of Full Moon Lake. They remembered seeing what appeared to be dazzling starlight in the sky. No one knew what it was, but it was certainly a spectacular sight.

But now, that spectacular sight has disappeared, and people think it might have been their imagination.

The local people who were working also looked up at the sky, where there seemed to be awe-inspiring yet approachable presence.

Hobart was still above Full Moon Lake, but he "distorted" the surrounding space, so people saw the figures of the "Disordered Ones" and the gods.

Seeing that there was nothing above Full Moon Lake, the locals continued working, all thinking that it might be their imagination.

Everything has returned to the time before the "Fallen Mother Goddess" influenced it.

Because of the uniqueness of the "Judge" and the characteristics of the "Hand of Order," Hobart's "changes" here can be "maintained" until the destruction of the universe!

That is tantamount to completely changing the "outcome".

The gods, who were about to leave, couldn't help but exclaim once again: This is the power of the past!

After seeing that everything was normal, Hobart left Full Moon Lake and returned to his mausoleum.

He continued to observe the changes He had undergone since becoming the Old Day.

The “Land of Chaos” appeared before Hobart. He came to the “Clock of Order” and reached out to touch the ancient bell.

Just as He had foreseen, after another qualitative change, His spirit received ancient messages once again.

In the beginning, the Creator "said": No existing order is the best order. We must change the old order through practical considerations and let the world shine with new brilliance.

In the beginning, the Creator "said": Chaos is both the beginning and a new start!

In the beginning, the Creator "said": Everything is for the continuation of the universe and life.

In the beginning, the Creator "said": The extraordinary is not everything in life, but life is all of the extraordinary. Where life exists, the extraordinary exists; where life ceases, the extraordinary perishes.

In the beginning, the Creator "said": Silence may be the source of everything, but the extraordinary can change it.

The Creator originally said: The meaning of life lies in its continuation, the meaning of the extraordinary lies in its transformation. Life becomes more wonderful when it undergoes transformation, but too much transformation will prevent it from continuing.

In the beginning, the Creator "said": ...

Hobart used his spirituality to gradually receive these scattered pieces of information, and then organized them through "meditation".

At this moment, He discovered that the information He received had a certain "interaction" with a part of His divinity within Him!

That is the "original" part of divinity.

After Hobert became an Old One, the proportion of the "original" part of his divinity increased significantly. Even though the "original" had no intention of awakening at this time, its invasion of Hobert's consciousness made Hobert clearly feel that he was becoming more and more indifferent.

Hobart had already devised a contingency plan for this and was ready to implement it shortly.

Then Hobart realized that he had once had high hopes for the "Child of Chaos"! He hoped that He could make extraordinary characteristics more docile by constantly "changing" the rules.

But the "Child of Chaos" hardly made any effort in this direction, at least Hobart didn't notice any such effort.

During the "initial" last awakening, whether intentionally or unintentionally, many of the extraordinary characteristics and half of the source matter of the "Child of Chaos" were drawn to Earth.

The reason why it is said that "initially" he did this unintentionally is because Hobart was more aware that even "initially" he could not control the "aggregation" of extraordinary properties at will.

The reason why it is said that it was done "initially" is because He woke up and found that the "Child of Chaos" had not done anything. So when the characteristics were "aggregated", He moved slightly closer to the "Child of Chaos". As a result, at least half of the "Child of Chaos"'s essence and half of its characteristics were aggregated to Earth.

This led to the "Child of Chaos" striving to enter Earth, but before he could find his own unique characteristics and essence, he was torn apart by the "original" avatar "Celestial Venerable," with only a portion of his extraordinary characteristics sealed inside a lamp.

Now, even if He wanted to make some "changes" according to His "original" intentions, He no longer had the chance.

Continuing to organize that information, Hobart discovered that "the beginning" already had a very high level of thinking about the universe and life.

Hobart was particularly surprised by the idea of ​​the extraordinary and life.

It was only today that He realized the extraordinary significance of life.

It is an indisputable fact that the extraordinary can cause life to mutate, but what would happen if one day all the resilience of life were exhausted by the extraordinary?

Hobart didn't know if there was a law called "the resilience of life." Let's assume there is such a law. If all life in the universe disappears, even extraordinary powers will not be able to create "new life." What changes will occur in extraordinary beings?

One can imagine that the extraordinary would become meaningless. At that time, the entire universe would be in a state of deathly silence, and the extraordinary would only be able to continuously influence that lifeless environment. What would be the point then?

At that moment, Hobart suddenly realized that the relationship between the extraordinary and life was not as people intuitively felt, that life was unimportant to the extraordinary.

On the contrary, life is of great significance to the extraordinary!

It was only then that Hobart understood why the "Beginning," which was almost entirely composed of divinity, cared so much about the meaning of life.

Only when life continues does the extraordinary have meaning, and only then does the "original" as a collection of the extraordinary have meaning.

With that thought in mind, Hobart took a deep breath and continued to ponder.

"Initially" there were many other plans, such as having life use extraordinary abilities to combat the eventual death of the universe.

Since the birth of the universe, entropy has been increasing. Theoretically, after an unknown period of time, the entire universe will become completely desolate.

Just like the deathly environment that Hobart created when he dealt with the "Fallen Mother Goddess," where even atoms would eventually decompose and fall into eternal death.

The gods, possessing extraordinary power, may cause changes when the entropy reaches a certain level, allowing the universe to regain its vitality.

However, this action can only occur when humans become gods. Outer gods like the "Fallen Mother Goddess" would not care about the development of the universe or the life and death of living beings.

After pondering for a while in the mausoleum, Hobart sat on the exquisite stone chair and waved his hand slightly, using his ability to create a special double.

A second or two later, Hobart stood up from his chair and glanced back; there was another version of himself sitting in the chair.

Hobart bowed slightly, addressing his reflection on the stone bench, "Greetings, great 'Creator'!"

The "Creator," seated in a chair, nodded: "Hello, Hobart."

After exchanging greetings, Hobert left the mausoleum and returned to the palace in Angelou.

When Hobert left, he took with him most of the humanity of the "Creator" and the characteristics of the two "Slaughtering Princes".

With the release of these two characteristics, the "Creator" immediately felt a reduction in his mental stress.

Sitting in the mausoleum, there are countless magnified, anchored "creators" in a fixed state. Even though much of His consciousness has been taken away, He can still maintain His state.

Furthermore, Hobert's vision, touch, and thoughts could all be shared with Him. He saw that Hobert had returned to the palace and met the two queens who were already waiting.

One of them was mature and languid, while the other was youthful and beautiful. They were not dressed in queen-like attire, but rather in long dresses with an Atlantean style.

Through Hobart's conversation with them, the "Creator" "recalls" that a family dinner is to be held tonight, and Donna is to formally introduce Derrick Berg to her family.

Today, Hobart was different from before; he naturally had some intimate interactions with the two queens.

It's clear that the two queens are also very happy, because it means that their husbands are in much better condition than before.

The "Creator" in the mausoleum, seeing the two beautiful empresses happy, felt his own emotions fluctuate.

Upon arriving at Christine's mansion, the "Creator" noticed that Christine and her husband took this family dinner very seriously, both dressed in Atlantis-style attire and personally directing the servants to decorate the living room and dining room.

Around 5 p.m., Derrick followed Donna in with the gifts.

Derrick was dressed very formally today, but his height made him seem a bit unusual.

The creator speculates that Donna must have told Derrick about the importance of this family dinner, otherwise, given Derrick's questionable emotional intelligence, he might not have understood the significance of today's meal.

After the introductions, the family sat down in the living room. It was clear that Derrick was very nervous, and his voice trembled slightly as he spoke.

However, the presence of the "Emperor" seemed to reassure Him somewhat, and after answering a few of Christine's questions, His voice gradually became more natural.

After chatting for more than half an hour, the Christines were quite satisfied with Derrick. He was handsome and sunny, and at a young age, he was the cardinal of the Church of Fools and the acting pope of the Church of Poseidon.

The only thing that worries the Christines is that the child is a little young.

When it came to dinner, with Hobart and Donna keeping the atmosphere lively and Audrey being considerate of everyone's feelings, the atmosphere quickly became harmonious.

The "creator" inside the mausoleum also revealed a gratified smile.

At that moment, the "Creator" seemed to suddenly realize something: Hobart's joy is my joy! I am the "Creator," the "Disorderly One," and also Hobart!

At this moment, both the "creator" in the mausoleum and Hobert of Angelou felt their divinity greatly diminished, and their condition was better than ever before.

The Creator took a deep breath: Since I'm in such good shape, it's time to get to work.

Meanwhile, Hobert was enjoying dinner with his family in Anjelou.

While enjoying the warmth of the family feast, the Creator stood up and, with a wave of his hand, retrieved the extraordinary characteristics of the Sea King from the "Land of Chaos," characteristics that had been corrupted by the "Fallen Mother Goddess."

This is an extraordinary property that Hobert obtained when he and Alger explored the last elven ruins together.

However, because this characteristic is corrupted by the "Fallen Mother Goddess," it cannot be used.

At this point, the "Creator" wants to use it for an experiment.

By placing this property on the ground of the mausoleum, the "Creator" summoned the "Clock of Order".

thump~

A melodious bell tolled throughout the mausoleum, making everything clearer.

The extraordinary characteristic of the "Sea God" on the ground trembled slightly, and a small red moon "emerged" from the characteristic. Then the crimson moon dimmed and eventually disappeared.

The "Fallen Mother Goddess" was destroyed as a defilement of the "Immortal"!

The Creator's spiritual perception revealed that the ordinary Old Ones could not do this at all; they could only completely transfer the pollution.

After the experiment was successful, the "Creator" took a step and instantly appeared next to Roselle.

The current emperor of Intis is on a date with a noblewoman, but neither she nor the servants in the room can see the "Creator" who has suddenly appeared.

Upon seeing the "Creator," Rosell suddenly realized something. Just as he was about to get up, the "Creator" summoned a heavy, ancient bronze bell.

thump~

The melodious chimes echoed throughout Trier, startling everyone in the city before they all savored the moment of clarity.

In the restaurant, Russell's chest suddenly became illusory, and a small red moon squeezed out from his chest and was quickly dispersed by the sound of bells.

Before Rosell could even express his gratitude, the "Creator" had already left.

Taking a deep breath, Rosell's face broke into a genuine smile. He had forgotten when his spirit, mind, and body had last felt so relaxed.

"Your Majesty, did you hear the bell just now?" The noble lady opposite her had not noticed Roselle's unusual behavior just now.

Roselle smiled and said, "Yes, that is a beautiful sound from heaven. Only those with very kind and pure hearts can hear it. You must be a young lady with a pure and beautiful heart."

The noblewoman was very pleased to hear this, but she couldn't show it, and at the same time, she had to appear shy.

……

There is no distinction between up, down, left, and right in the surroundings, and common sense such as distance, brightness, and temperature does not apply here.

Strange and grotesque monsters live in this area, and most of the time they are relatively peaceful with each other.

This is the most common sight in the spirit world.

Suddenly, this space, which had no direction and no fixed pattern, began to churn, sometimes falling into unprecedented chaos, and sometimes gaining direction and fixed patterns.

The surrounding monsters fled in panic, fully aware that a terrifying being was descending upon the spirit world.

The arrival of this being immediately attracted the attention of the "Seven Lights".

The next second, the "Creator" appeared in the Spirit Realm, and at that moment, the entire Spirit Realm seemed to freeze!

Someone from the past visited the spirit world!

The "Creator" looked up at the seven-colored light at the top of the spirit world, and the eerie castle above the light.

He took a step forward and appeared outside the Source Castle before the Seven Lights could react, and summoned the Bell of Order once again.

thump~

thump~

thump~

The three consecutive, unhurried tolls of the bell shook the "Source Castle" and the entire spirit world.

The "Seven Lights" emitted an even brighter glow, and many of the distortions, madness, and dangers in the spirit world vanished! The spirit creatures were no longer so confused; they seemed to have found their "life goals"!

squeak~

The Creator saw the gates of the Source Castle slowly open, and a figure appeared at the entrance, waving at Him.

The Creator was somewhat disappointed because the person at the door was the World, Gehrman Sparrow, not the Fool, Klein.

After putting away the "Clock of Order," the "Creator" also appeared at the entrance of the "Source Castle."

"Mr. Fool, thank you very much for your help," Gehrman said. "The bell just now gave you an absolute advantage in your struggle against the 'Celestial Venerable.'"

"However, the consciousness of the 'Celestial Venerable' cannot be ignored, so Mr. Fool decided to awaken when he was more certain. While he slept, he would also travel to other dimensions to eliminate more 'Celestial Venerables' and gain more advantages!"

The Creator nodded: "Okay."

Gellman added, "Mr. Fool also said that, thanks to your help just now, from now on, He will have three minutes of lucidity every day."

"Although He will not leave the place of slumber, He will not be subject to any restrictions from the Celestial Venerable for these three minutes, and His condition will be quite good."

"As the advantage expands further, this period of clarity will become longer and longer."

The Creator said, "I understand!"

In other words, starting today, Klein can provide assistance at the "half-Old One" level, but this assistance is limited to three minutes per day.

But that was enough; from now on, Hobart would no longer fight alone!

……

As summer arrived in the southern continent, the "Creator" visited the raging sea.

All the ships on the raging sea sailed as usual, and no one noticed the arrival of the "Creator".

He was in mid-air, seemingly looking at the dark clouds in front of him, but in reality, he was looking at the huge gap between the real world and the underworld.

The fall of the Underworld Emperor not only severed the narrow land connection between the North and South continents, but also caused part of the Underworld to become entangled with part of the real world.

Under the influence of the underworld, the sea climate has changed drastically. Many places are hit by biting hurricanes all year round, and many places are always shrouded in dark clouds, with strong winds and heavy rain. These abnormal climates have lasted for more than a thousand years!

After the Age of Exploration arrived, the countries of the Northern Continent found only three narrow and safe sea routes connecting the Southern and Northern Continents.

Even in safe waterways, there are occasional extremely bad weather events, and countless ships have sunk in hurricanes and storms.

The "Creator" enters the "Shadow" to observe, where the raging sea is composed of a jumble of strings, one end of which always connects to the underworld.

By observing these strings, the "Creator" completely understood the composition of the raging sea and knew the sea areas under the dark clouds and in the gale as if He had created these sea areas.

At this moment, in the sky not far from the "Creator", a surging, dark and incomprehensible power descended, followed by the power of sunlight, the power of storms, and so on.

The six gods watched from afar as the "Creator" unleashed his ancient power.

With a gentle wave of his hand, the "Creator" precisely separated the chaotic and intertwined underworld and the real world. Not a single space of the underworld remained in the real world, nor was any space of the real world taken away from the underworld.

Immediately afterwards, the "Creator" completely "changed" this chaotic situation, and the boundary between the real world and the underworld was re-established.

In an instant, the hurricanes that had inexplicably plagued the entire raging sea vanished, and the perpetual dark clouds dissipated.

There is no longer a safe passage in the raging sea, because the entire sea area is safe!

The new shipping routes will not be drawn based on safety, but rather on factors such as ocean currents, monsoons, and easily accessible islands for resupply.

Just as the "Creator" was about to leave, the six righteous gods suddenly used their respective powers to project the "Creator's" image into the sky above the raging sea, making it visible to everyone in the area.

……

Just now, a cargo ship that was blown out of its safe course by the storm is battling the severe weather.

Under the dark, heavy clouds, huge waves threatened to capsize the ship several times, and none of the crew knew if they could survive the next giant wave.

All they can do now is pray silently to the gods.

In just a moment, the sky suddenly cleared! The sea, which had been churning with giant waves, calmed down instantly, as if they had returned to a safe course in an instant!

This is a miracle!

This must be a miracle!

The excited crew knelt on the deck, about to thank the "Lord of the Storm," when suddenly a majestic figure appeared in the sky.

The moment they saw that figure, a concept suddenly popped into the crew's minds: this was the god who saved them!

They all worshipped that towering figure, for a concept had formed in their minds: from this day forward, the raging sea would no longer be raging!
