Chapter 837: Chapter 374: Did You Come from the Past? (Part 2)
The preciousness of the Heart of the Future is evident.
"However, this Human Clan practiced Illusion World Extinction, and yet does not want the Mystery Realm Origin?"
The Void Divine Race’s ’Jie Zhou True God’ was somewhat surprised, "For this Human Clan, even the Chaotic Domain Sea should be more useful than the Heart of the Future..."
Nevertheless, since the Father God has already permitted this Human Clan to freely pick from the Seven Feather Level treasures, he naturally wouldn’t say more.
He was just a bit puzzled as to why Father God would be willing to offer such a treasure to invite this Human Clan to become an envoy.
"The Heart of the Future, actually I can only choose it..."
Lin Qing silently watched this treasure planet continuously collapse and dissipate, inwardly sighing.
The Chaotic Domain Sea and Mystery Realm Origin are indeed excellent.
But there is still some Chaotic Domain Sea in the chaos, and once he brings it back to reality, he cannot explain its source, nor can he explain how he suddenly nurtured the Lifebound Treasure to the eternal limit.
As for the Mystery Realm Origin, it originates from a mysterious place ’Mystery Realm’ discovered by the Future World God in the chaos.
The quantity of Mystery Realm Origin can be verified, and the Mystery Realm is under the observation of the Future World God. If he suddenly mastered the third layer of Illusion World Extinction, unless he never showcases it, how can he explain the origin of Mystery Realm Origin?
On the contrary, the ’Heart of the Future’ is different.
According to the introduction, the Heart of the Future is a product of the Time River in the endless chaos and has appeared four times in the long known history.
The Future World God absorbed the first Heart of the Future, and the ’Ancestor of the Other Shore’ among the three ancestors of Star Abyss absorbed the second Heart of the Future.
These two are publicly known.
Later, it was discovered that ’Mother of the Future’ from the allies of Star Abyss’s side, Mother River Clan, also absorbed a Heart of the Future.
Is there a fourth? A fifth?
It is unknown.
If not for the Future Mother showcasing future avatars exceeding the limit of three hundred and eighty during a great battle, no one would have known she had obtained a Heart of the Future.
The Heart of the Future collected by the Future World God is only known to the Void Divine Race on Future Realm’s side.
"As long as my future avatars don’t exceed three hundred and eighty, they won’t be exposed."
Lin Qing thought.
The Heart of the Future, in essence, is a kind of talent power that strengthens consciousness and future capacity.
Unless they kill him, outsiders cannot probe his consciousness.
Thus...
At present, the best choice for him is this Heart of the Future.
The key is that after returning to reality, there would be no worries!
"After obtaining this Heart of the Future, I can return to reality."
Lin Qing calmly activated the token to lift the seal, while myriad thoughts surged within, inevitably giving rise to a hint of tension.
In the blink of an eye, the seal on this planet was completely lifted.
A phantom-like, peculiar light orb appeared before his eyes, seemingly existing in reality, yet akin to being in the illusory future.
When Lin Qing reached out to touch it, his consciousness instantly absorbed its power entirely.
At that moment—
"Human Clan, you actually dare to accept my gift."
A calm and gentle voice suddenly sounded, as if coming from the future, echoing from the world.
In an instant, space-time seemed to freeze.
The process of merging with the Heart of the Future paused instantly.
Lin Qing’s heart skipped a beat, outwardly maintaining composure as he spoke: "It’s my honor to become an envoy for Future World God."
"You are lying." The Future World God’s voice remained gentle: "You should come from the past, showcasing descent into the future, allowing consciousness to descend onto your future self?"
Lin Qing was startled internally.
"No need to deny it; your consciousness faces repulsion in future space-time, unable to even perfectly control your own body; what else could it be besides descent into the future?"
The Future World God sighed softly, "I’m just curious... Your reckless freedom, doesn’t your future self’s consciousness resist? Would it be willing to let you act recklessly like this, to be my envoy for ten trillion years for the sake of the Heart of the Future?"
Lin Qing was slightly stunned.
Will the future self’s consciousness resist?
He felt no resisting consciousness, as if... the future self doesn’t possess self-awareness.
"Don’t you know?"
The Future World God sighed: "For people like you from the past who showcase descent into the future, this space-time might be illusory, but that’s only because your consciousness doesn’t belong to future space-time. For us who naturally belong to this space-time, everything here is real."
Real?
Lin Qing suddenly understood what He meant.
Though no one had taught him detailed knowledge about some abilities related to future rules, he had some doubts—
Now by showcasing descent into the future, letting consciousness descend onto the future self, where did the future self’s consciousness go?
Now he finally knew the answer.
It’s that...
The two consciousnesses coexist!
It’s like having two personalities.
Under normal circumstances, he couldn’t treat future space-time as a virtual game, doing whatever he wanted.
Because for the future self, this space-time is the present, the real world!
If the past self did something irreparable, the past self could let consciousness return, but in this real world, it leaves a mess!
Thus, unless both consciousnesses reach agreement, if the future self, as the main consciousness, resists, then nothing can be done.
"What’s going on? I felt no resistance from the future me..."
For a moment, Lin Qing felt waves of shock in his heart.
Perhaps this is common knowledge about descent into the future, and no one ever taught him, so he didn’t know such things existed.
Or perhaps, there’s no need for teaching?
Once descending into the future, there should naturally be two consciousnesses?
Lin Qing forcefully suppressed the shock in his heart and remained calm as he said: "For such a great existence as Future World God, I am honored to be your envoy, and willingly I do this."
"I don’t think you are such a person."
The Future World God softly said: "I’ve observed your future line; it’s nearly impossible for you to voluntarily become my envoy; why the sudden change?"
Lin Qing was silent for a moment, then asked: "Did Future World God see my future?"
The Future World God was also silent for a moment, then finally spoke: "Precisely because I saw your future, it is what I find most inexplicable."
"What happened?" Lin Qing couldn’t help but ask.
The Future World God didn’t speak.
But...
The frozen space-time had already returned to normal, with the power of the Heart of the Future continually merging into Lin Qing’s soul consciousness.
"What exactly does this mean?"
While absorbing the Heart of the Future, Lin Qing continuously pondered.
Soon, the Heart of the Future was completely absorbed by Lin Qing.
At this moment, ’Jie Zhou True God’ flew to Lin Qing, turned over his hand to produce a pure black prismatic crystal, and spoke: "Now that you have obtained the treasure, as agreed, henceforth you shall be the envoy of the great Father God."
He handed the pure black prismatic crystal to Lin Qing, saying: "With this ’True Self Oath Stone,’ make a vow, swearing to be Father God’s envoy for ten trillion years. If violated, no matter where you are, whether you are an Ultimate Being or among other two World Gods, you will face self-retaliation, dying instantly with soul extinguished."
"True Self Oath Stone?"
Lin Qing couldn’t help but glance, realizing this True Self Oath Stone is a Five Feather Level treasure, extremely precious, more than many Ultimate Beings can produce.
Ultimate Beings no longer subject to the constraints of the Second Cosmic Network.
But this True Self Oath Stone is different, once the vow is made, even beings like World Gods cannot resist—it is suicide.
"What will happen?"
Lin Qing reached out to take the True Self Oath Stone, quietly looking at it, inwardly sighing.
Then, his mind moved:
"Supreme Miracle ’Transforming Illusion into Truth,’ I choose to bring back the ’Heart of the Future’."
At the same time, he had already given up resisting the pull from reality that comes mysteriously, allowing this space-time to repel and expel his consciousness away.
In an instant, Lin Qing felt the world before him suddenly darken, space-time reversing completely, and immediately lost consciousness.
...
Inside the future treasure vault, Jie Zhou True God stared blankly at the scene before him, somewhat unable to understand.
"He... how could he..."
Jie Zhou True God couldn’t help but look up at the void, "Great Father God, how did this Human Clan’s consciousness suddenly extinguish?"
The Future World God remained silent for a long, long time before slowly speaking:
"This isn’t extinguishing, but unification..."
