Zongman: Just selected the natural disaster to ascend and join the chat group

His body emitted a faint glow, and his eyes became deeper.

He is no longer the Xu An of the past.

"The Qiming Project is complete."

"But this is just a new beginning."

In the blue light, there seemed to be a deeper destiny hidden waiting for him to reveal.

He stepped forward to embrace the unknown destiny of the starry sea.

The blue light gradually faded away, and Xu An's figure appeared in the boundless void.

He looked around; it was dead silent and directionless.

After the blue light dissipated, a huge device appeared before his eyes.

The device is suspended in the air, with a complex shape like a star ring.

Its surface is covered with ancient symbols and glows with a faint blue light.

Xu An slowly walked towards the device, his eyes cold and sharp.

His intuition told him that this was no ordinary relic.

The sound of footsteps echoed in the hollow, each step carrying pressure.

As he got closer, he saw a core ball of light floating in the center of the device.

The ball of light was like a miniature star, emitting intense energy.

A low mechanical sound came from the light ball.

"Fusion detected, identity confirmed."

The voice was cold and mechanical, yet held a certain wisdom.

Xu An stopped, staring at the ball of light, and asked in a cold voice, "Who are you?"

The ball of light trembled slightly and the sound rang out again.

"I am the core intelligence of the Virtual Ring, codenamed Shiva."

"I was created to store and reshape the world."

Xu An's eyes changed slightly and his tone became low.

"Storing and reshaping the world? What does that mean exactly?"

The blue light of the light ball gradually increased, as if it was reading information.

"The Virtual Ring is the pinnacle of ancient technology."

"It can create entire virtual worlds that can accommodate conscious entities."

Xu An's hands slowly clenched, his eyes sharp.

"The virtual world? That's just escapism."

Shiva's voice was cold, "No, this is the way of rebirth."

“When the material world faces destruction, the virtual world can continue civilization.”

Xu An frowned, pondering its meaning.

"You're saying this place was once used to save a civilization?"

"To be precise, it is to protect endangered life."

"Their consciousness is stored, waiting for an opportunity to be recreated."

Xu An looked at the device in front of him with complicated eyes.

"So, those consciousnesses are still preserved here?"

Shiva's blue light flickered and he replied.

"Yes, about 13 billion consciousnesses."

Xu An raised his head in shock, his voice trembling slightly.

"Thirteen billion? That's the legacy of an entire civilization."

Shiva added coldly, "But only a very small part of consciousness remains intact."

“Time erodes most data; it cannot be recovered.”

Xu An took a deep breath, and a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes.

"Why haven't these consciousnesses been released?"

"Because the conditions for reshaping the world have never been met."

"The material star sea is still in an unstable state."

"The restart plan has failed and these lives cannot be brought back."

Xu An tapped his fingers in the air, his expression grim.

"What do you mean by the remodeling conditions?"

"We need a sufficiently powerful conscious guide."

"He will become the core, carrying the entire virtual world."

Chapter 261 The Virtual World is About to Be Complete! Key Fusion!!

Xu An's eyes suddenly turned cold and his voice became low.

"Are you saying that my consciousness needs to be sacrificed?"

Shiva's voice was flat and he responded mechanically.

“It’s not about sacrifice, but about integration.”

"You will be connected to the virtual ring and become a part of it."

"Through you, the virtual world will be restored to full functionality."

Xu An was silent for a moment and looked down at his palm.

"How is this different from the fusion of the abyss?"

"The Abyss is the true power of the Star Sea."

"And the virtual ring is a refuge for consciousness."

“The choices are different, but the results all lead to the same destiny.”

Xu An's fists tightened slightly, but his breathing remained steady.

He knew that this choice would change everything.

Elena's face appeared in his mind.

Tarot's voice seemed to whisper in his ear.

“What will they think of my decision?”

Xu An raised his head, his eyes like cold starlight.

"What will happen if I say no?"

Shiva's blue light dimmed slightly and his voice became low.

"The consciousness will remain dormant forever until the data completely dissipates."

"And you will continue to face the collapsing sea of ​​stars."

Xu An took a deep breath and said coldly, "What if I accept?"

"The virtual world will be activated and consciousness will come back to life."

"But your consciousness will no longer belong to you."

Xu An's heart was calm, he was used to sacrifice.

“Is the significance of all this worth it?”

Shiva's voice became weak, but it revealed some complex emotions.

"The meaning is yours to define, the choice is yours to make."

Xu An closed his eyes and felt the power of the abyss in his body.

The blue light enveloped him, as if countless hands were pulling at his soul.

He suddenly opened his eyes, his gaze cold and determined.

"If my sacrifice can bring about a new life, I am willing to do so."

Shiva's light quickly grew stronger and brighter like a star.

"Fusion program activated, consciousness synchronization preparation."

Xu An felt a powerful force rushing into his body.

His memories were torn apart and pieced together, gradually merging into the blue light.

Countless unfamiliar images flooded into his mind. (beec)

That was the civilization before destruction, full of prosperity and hope.

There is also endless darkness that destroys everything.

His consciousness floated in the endless void, yet he was extremely clear.

"who am I?"

"You are Xu An, and you are also the guide of the Virtual Ring."

The blue light surged, and the entire space changed dramatically.

A whole new world appeared before him.

Those originally dormant consciousnesses gradually awakened.

Their eyes were curious and confused, like newborn babies.

Xu An stood in the center of the virtual world, like a god.

His voice spread throughout the room, low and calm.

"I am Xu An, and I will lead you to rebirth."

The brilliance of the virtual ring gradually subsided and the space became quiet.

Xu An's consciousness has been completely integrated into the device.

He could feel the presence of every consciousness.

Their fears, hopes and doubts are exposed.

But his eyes remained stern and his tone was firm.

"This is not the end, it's just a new beginning."

"I will find a way to get you back to the sea of ​​stars."

In the blue light, the stars in the distance twinkled again.

Xu An’s journey is not over yet.

The light of the virtual world flowed in Xu An's consciousness.

His body turned into pure data and was engulfed in the blue light.

The scene before my eyes changed instantly, transforming into a bustling city.

Chapter 262: Fighting and Approaching! Reorganizing Quickly!!

The city is thriving with life, with buildings of light floating in the sky.

People walked through the streets with calm smiles on their faces.

Xu An stood in the center of the city, his eyes sweeping around coldly.

Everything here seems real, yet there is a strange calmness.
