I am Jinshan Youxia

Humans are not the only species capable of achieving symbiosis with the microbial community. In order to suppress the increasingly numerous and powerful out-of-control rules, he enhanced the effects of many extraordinary microbial communities. Animals and plants all achieved symbiosis with the extraordinary microbial communities and gradually developed some intelligence, though not very high.

In terms of memory and comprehension alone, the large plant and animal populations should be at the level of an average adult human. However, due to the lack of civilization and language, they could not communicate with each other and, even more than 20 years later, had not yet formed any organization.

More intelligent animals such as chimpanzees, baboons, and parrots have become smarter through symbiosis, living in human cities and trying to decipher human knowledge, but they are still in a very primitive state.

In contrast, the sea is much more lively.

Watching animals and plants grow after developing intelligence is Zhang Chengyi's greatest pleasure while suppressing the out-of-control rules.

Keiichi Matsui and Goro Furuhata followed quietly behind, listening, thinking, and filled with doubt.

They woke up almost simultaneously, unaware of what had happened or why they found themselves on the familiar Earth of the past.

They followed Zhang Chengyi to the back mountain after walking through streets that were already overgrown with plants.

It was still dark. The mountain was covered with dense fir trees, but the ground was clean. After all, these fir trees, which lived in symbiosis with the fungi, had long since consumed all the sunlight and nutrients. Even if there were some insects in the soil, they would be crushed by the tree roots and turned into nutrients. The soft soil was incredibly flat.

There was absolutely no light; it was pitch black.

Zhang Chengyi, who was leading the way, was very familiar with the route and did not need any light at all. His eyes were purely decorative. As for Matsui Keiichi and Furuhata Goro, one of them did not need eyes at all and could observe through his mind. The other's eyes could not be damaged even when they entered a star, and he had his own night vision.

The three 'people', who didn't look very human, quickly passed through the dark cedar forest and came to a clearing shrouded in hazy moonlight.

"This was the place back then, wasn't it?"

Zhang Chengyi pointed to the empty space and laughed, "I still remember that guy who was growing mushrooms back then absolutely refused to leave, he just wanted me to leave with you guys, haha..."

As a modder, he doesn't have the ability to 'forget'; everything that happened in the past is clearly laid out in his mind.

He remembers everyone who was kind to him, and he also remembers everyone who wronged him. Every event, every detail, and his extensive experiences in the world have allowed his mind to grow at an extremely rapid pace, and his knowledge is now vastly different from what it used to be.

But interesting and wonderful experiences from the past can always bring joy.

Since the ideal of showing off is no longer possible, let's simply fulfill this promise together with the people who witnessed it.

After walking for a while, Matsui Keiichi had completely calmed down and spoke, "Your Highness, those strange beings..."

“I’ve fixed everything.” Zhang Chengyi interrupted him. “Don’t worry, there will be no more aliens in this world, and there will be no more Hell Star.”

He turned to look at Keiichi Matsui and shook his head, saying, "You've caused me quite a bit of trouble."

Those whose minds are twisted like 'Keiichi Matsui', including aliens, require meticulous treatment.

If you simply and crudely delete a distorted mind or the parts of the mind that have been affected, it's like cutting off a person's lower body. Whether they can survive is uncertain, and even if they do, the mental disability will turn them into an idiot.

It would require slowly sorting through all their memories and correcting any ideas that didn't belong to them, which would be an extreme waste of computing power.

Considering the differences in distance and affinity, Zhang Chengyi has only corrected a portion of Earthlings so far; it's unknown when aliens will be included.

There aren't many Earthlings who can move freely. Matsui Kei was too ruthless, single-mindedly trying to drag others down with him, especially when threatened by Souichi. He directly and without hesitation attacked the other people who hadn't yet become twisted.

Those who can resist assimilation are basically Earthlings with very strong minds. Considering that some of them are not fond of the God of the Microbiome, and even have a lot of suspicion and resistance in their hearts, Zhang Chengyi naturally ignored them. Those who are willing to accept others are basically all in N City.

"..."

Keiichi Matsui lowered his head and remained silent.

As always, Goro Furuhata stood there silently, feeling at ease just by looking at the god's back.

Zhang Chengyi remained silent. In the quiet waiting, the moonlight gradually faded, and in the last darkness before dawn, Matsui Keiichi spoke:

"Souichi, Your Highness, what are your plans for dealing with Souichi?"

"That guy," Zhang Chengyi glanced at Shuangyi, whom he had singled out and sent to another world, and said, "Will we give him a job?"

Chapter 427 The New Testament

A large group of worlds closely connected to the world before us have collapsed in the past period of time, and there are some surviving worlds that will collapse sooner or later.

Zhang Chengyi could use the villa in Yaqie as a time-space connection point to travel to and devour other worlds that hadn't yet collapsed, but time was an issue.

Moreover, the reason for the collapse was that his existence destroyed the concept of spacetime. All the information of the world that had collapsed before was superimposed on this world because of his existence, and the large number of other out-of-control rules that emerged carried information from other worlds.

After swallowing it, he began to rebuild the destroyed world. Considering that some strange tales that were too prone to causing trouble should not exist, he would definitely delete some out-of-control rules and adjust the mental rules at the core of Junji Itō's world group.

It's hard to say whether problems will arise. The White Dumpling World already has a ton of problems, big and small. The rules brought about by the fusion of different worlds are increasing. It's impossible for it to forcibly delete a part of them. It can only try to modify or formulate a supreme rule that can accommodate all the rules.

Junji Ito's mental rules are the most prone to causing trouble. They can distort some rules without affecting all of them. To be honest, they are of great help to him in creating a body that can contain his true self. The problem is that the mental rules are also extremely destructive to the world.

Without proper modifications, he suspected that one day the White Dumpling World might even give rise to more than one 'Gold Mountain Ranger', 'Martial Ancestor', or 'Golden Rat' due to the numerous rumors about him.

Modifying the rules will inevitably lead to unknown consequences, so someone needs to keep an eye on things.

The highest-ranking members, Midori and Shiba Inu, are constantly busy maintaining the normal operation of the white dumpling world while helping to save the world from destruction. They haven't had a full day of rest since decades ago, occasionally creating some fun by splitting themselves into clones.

Zhang Chengyi had heard of the rumors that Shiba Inu and several other Grandmasters in Tianlong Continent had created, and that they had secretly fabricated a lot of rumors, but he turned a blind eye to it.

He only has two hardworking and selfless employees, and he can understand if they have some personal hobbies.

Anyway, since we didn't get to gossip about him, it's still quite amusing to watch the show.

The closest to the world level below are the female ghosts who have long controlled the reincarnation tablet, especially Nie Xiaoqian. She may not be good at direct combat, but she is quite good at manipulating information to indirectly adjust the world.

However, the female ghosts are far from being able to directly adjust the rules, let alone discover problems in the first place.

As the superposition of multiple worlds' out-of-control rules, Souichi is extremely sensitive to rules. He may be an idiot when it comes to information and has no way to correct the world, but with the help of some female ghosts, he is simply the best ox or horse to maintain the world.

Zhang Chengyi didn't ask Shuangyi to sell himself to him; he just wanted him to maintain his own world and, incidentally, break down the information. One Shuangyi definitely wasn't enough; a group of Shuangyi, one in each world, would definitely solve the problem.

Matsui Keiichi has a very high understanding of the rules of the mind. He knew that Souichi had become an "outcast", so he was very worried that his disciple would be "repaired", which is why he asked.

Now that I've heard about the job offer, I accepted it immediately.

As long as they don't die, that's fine.

After this minor incident, the three of them returned to normal.

"Your Highness, Your Highness!" The mushroom man, whom we haven't seen for forty years, descended from the sky and rushed over in a flurry.

Matsui Keiichi's abilities were locked, rendering him unable to exert any power. His mind was clearly visible in the back mountain, and Furuhata Goro did not conceal his presence. Due to the proliferation of mind controllers in this era, most experts would take the time to learn some mind-related abilities, so it was not difficult to discover them.

People in N City gradually woke up and rushed over after a short period of adjustment.

About a third of the people who had met Zhang Chengyi landed on the open ground, greeted him first, and then stood quietly to the side.

Anyone who can withstand Matsui Keiichi's twisted mind, even if only for a short while, has reached the point where they can touch the truth of the extraordinary microorganisms. They clearly understand that everything about them is in the hands of the microorganism lord. Even if he is not a god, that is still not a reason for them to act recklessly.

What use is it if the ruler of the microbiome can destroy the entire human society built on the microbiome with a single thought?

Of the remaining two-thirds, some followed the crowd down, some flew in the sky watching, and some stayed far away, not daring to approach.

Most of the masters were born after humans left Earth. They never thought that the pact between humans and gods would really bring back the gods. Humans may need the help of gods at times, but they absolutely do not need a god to ride on their heads.

Zhang Chengyi was fully aware of their intentions, but thankfully he didn't cause any trouble like some idiots who were obsessed with how to kill the god or turn the god into a specimen, a stick, or a signal generator.

And so, in quiet waiting, dawn broke.

The inky sky was tinged with wisps of gold, which quickly spread slowly along the ground. The thin morning mist was pierced by the sunlight and naturally dissipated. In the distance, the early birds that had just left their nests fled as if escaping in the face of the large number of people flying in the air.

"Some of you have seen me, and some of you have not."

Zhang Chengyi's voice wasn't loud, but it resonated in everyone's ears.

They are all legitimate high-ranking members of human society, powerful figures who can determine the future of human society; otherwise, he wouldn't have been interested in bringing them all here.

It is different from the overall unified Tianlong world civilization, the Inuyasha world civilization which barely managed to mend itself in the face of disaster, and the Hong Kong comics civilization which was completely destroyed and restored to its original level and cannot be called a unified civilization.

Junji Itō's ghost stories depict a world where Earth's civilization is severely fragmented, and his influence is too profound. Now that all external threats have been resolved, and the world hasn't reached the point of escaping its current state, if left unchecked, they will most likely engage in civil war in the future.

Golden sunlight fell on everyone's faces. They were not surprised to hear the sound, nor did they cause any disturbance. They continued to listen quietly.

"I am not your god." Zhang Chengyi used this sentence as the opening to his next words.

Some of the church's experts were clearly losing their footing, realizing that their own deity was undermining their cause by saying such things.

The church has done many dishonorable things in the past, using God as a slogan and a reason.

"Not now, and not in the future."

Zhang Chengyi ignored them, saying, "But I did make an agreement with you."

"I am so glad to see you again and to see that you have not been destroyed and are still living well in the universe."

"So, as 'outsiders' who made a pact with humanity, from today onwards, you will have nothing to do with me anymore."

"I will no longer help you, nor will I ever appear before you again."

"As a final gift," he said, as dawn broke and his body slowly dissipated, turning into countless golden particles. "I will give this world to you."

"Thus, we will enter into a new covenant with you."

"Let's meet again someday, when you are able to transcend your own world."

I'm skipping again today.

My inspiration has dried up, and the ending I wrote earlier feels like a jumbled mess. I'm even more worried about what to write next.

The problem with this book is that the first volume did not unfold as fully as outlined. Many parts were cut off and turned into short stories because they felt it was too long. The short stories were also strangely written, with problems in selection and writing, so it fell apart. I've written multiverse-type books before, and they all fell apart. I didn't learn my lesson. I thought I could give it a try, and then I died after trying it.

After that, I could write whatever interesting things I wanted to write.

Originally, it was planned that there would be another volume that was a medley of martial arts, Bleach, and Naruto, then a volume about a childcare robot in Yu Yu Hakusho, and finally, the story would end with the transmigrator arriving in the protagonist's multiverse.

But I felt a bit numb while writing today. My brain was completely dry, and I couldn't think of anything interesting. Even just rushing over to show off didn't motivate me to write...

Chapter 428 Departure

The Lord of the Microbiome patted his behind and left, leaving behind a sky full of dumbfounded Earthlings.

It's important to understand that the powerful individuals currently on Earth come from various factions. Despite the immense power of the Church, the Security Forces, and the United Nations, each has its own internal factions. Furthermore, the individuals from other factions who can form legions are not to be underestimated; they would be considered high-ranking members in any of these factions.

Now that everyone has been crammed into the small city of N, when there are gods around, people are afraid of the gods who can destroy them at any time, so they can naturally keep their distance and coexist peacefully.

Now that God has demonstrated disappearance to them on the spot, things are getting a bit complicated.

To fight? To make peace? To retreat on our own? Or to sit down and talk things over, each with our own agenda?

With too many choices and being highly intelligent and shrewd individuals, they are all afraid of someone making a move, as it would inevitably escalate into a full-scale battle.

Many of them have long harbored grudges, but for various reasons, they haven't started a war. They can't find their enemies, or they don't dare to take revenge. Now, some of their enemies are right in front of them, and some benefits can be easily obtained by killing the other party. For some, taking action is an inevitable outcome.

It's not that intelligent people don't understand the consequences of war, but rather that intelligent and strong individuals are arrogant enough to believe they can survive in the chaos of war.
