Chapter 1028: Dream, the Life Sequence Opened from the Source
“Is Xiao Han observing the life sequence?”
“It should be correct. The peculiarity of the Ancient Ice Remains allows Xiao Han to use the power of the Great Spellbook to reverse-understand the life sequence,” Lucini spoke up.
Although she was not a member of the original Ancient Ice Remains replication project, as a prominent witch in the field of life research, she still had a comprehensive understanding of the entire process of this experiment.
She naturally understood the particularity of the Ancient Ice Remains.
“What’s the purpose of understanding the life sequence?” Some witches who didn’t quite understand asked.
“If cultivating consciousness is the final result, does the life sequence have any guiding effect on the birth of consciousness?” A witch raised this question.
“I don’t know much about the field of life sequences. I only barely understand that the racial life sequence is divided into two powers, but even so, it doesn’t seem to relate to consciousness, does it?”
“Perhaps it’s because the understanding isn’t deep enough?”
“Could it be that Xiao Han’s thinking is too self-evident?”
While these witches chatted, Lucini spoke: “Regarding the two powers of life sequence differentiation that are related to consciousness, I have learned some things; it relates to the Summoning power, corresponding to the concept of race. The concept of race itself is related to consciousness, but I don’t know how.”
At this moment, the quiet exchange between these witch sisters reached my ears. Although they used a style of communication that wouldn’t be too disruptive, one shouldn’t underestimate the passive hearing of the five senses.
I also had a simple analysis of this discussion among the witches, but the more I listened, the more I felt it difficult.
From the following exchanges, I learned that Sister Lucini had participated in experiments related to life creation.
However, her understanding of the life sequence wasn’t deep and remained at a “surface-level” cognitive level.
“Sister Lucini, may I ask, have you participated in the primordial experiment of new races?” In the end, I couldn’t help but ask after overhearing their conversation.
— The witches instantly fell silent, and it wasn’t until a soft voice broke the awkwardness.
“Eh~ You were private chatting, and Xiao Han heard it.”
“Yes, I did participate in the primordial experiment for newborn races, or what we call the Primordial Ancestor Cultivation Plan,” Lucini said.
“The Primordial Ancestor Cultivation Plan…” I took note of this topic’s name and continued: “Then why does Sister Lucini seem to feel that your understanding of the life sequence is not deep? Creating an entirely new primordial ancestor requires opening up a life sequence, right?”
Indeed, a completely new life sequence must be opened, but that doesn’t mean we have an in-depth understanding of it. Little Xi… you have a very clear understanding of the life sequence. What you’re doing now… is something we witches can’t comprehend. Lucini didn’t feel much embarrassment; instead, she took the opportunity to inquire about me.
“Well,” I nodded, and inwardly I developed a somewhat immature guess. I then continued: “After all, I am involved in the Fool Dream Life Experiment. To make Fool Dream a real life, I must thoroughly understand the life sequence and open up a life sequence for Fool Dream to become a real life.”
“For Fool Dream… to open up a life sequence?”
Upon hearing my words, it was as expected, Lucini was shocked by this statement.
And I confirmed my ninety percent guess.
Was Sister Lucini’s approach to the ancestor by using life as a template to begin the evolution of a new race?
“…Indeed, the birth of the primordial ancestor is now quite difficult. The constant opening of life sequences has made the races in the Void manifold, and the opening of life sequences will also become increasingly challenging…”
Lucini began to recount the Primordial Ancestor Cultivation Plan she once participated in, while I merely listened.
Now I understood completely.
The starting point for the common new divine race’s primordial ancestor was already life; they were just intervening, while my Fool Dream starts from nothing!
It is not even ordinary consciousness but a concept that exists entirely outside of reality.
Therefore, with no entry point available, I can only rely on the power of the Sacred Object to actively open the life sequence and explore from the source.
Lucini and the others do not need to fully understand what the life sequence’s deep essence is, because they are already complete life sequences from the beginning, and what they are doing is merely evolving new branches based on humans.
Whereas Fool Dream begins with nothing, so I need to understand everything!
At least, all the key concepts must be understood, from nothing to something!
Now, I truly realized why Dream State Soul Material was so sought after.
Of course, opening up dream life is tremendously challenging; however, once all the witches join forces to open a gap, then all witches can explore endless blue seas through that gap!
Previously, I understood that Dream State Soul Material was a blue ocean for dream life, and now, after grasping its difficulty, I resonated with this “madness.”
No wonder even Sister Lucini, when we first met, inadvertently brought up topics about Dream State Soul Material and the Dream Demon Workshop.
It turns out she had long considered it, but as a deeply knowledgeable and stable scholarly witch, she had shown remarkable restraint. She was so restrained that I previously hadn’t noticed the underlying meaning of her comments. I should have communicated throughout with Heart Sense during my interaction with these witch sisters… The reverse analysis of the life sequence is time-consuming; it’s not that the process is particularly challenging, but I need time to continuously observe whether the racial concept aligns with my proposed hypothesis, the “Consciousness Imprint Theory.” If it matches, everything will be joyous; if not, I will modify the theory until a feasible guiding theory is established. Furthermore, this process lacks the aid of fortune’s momentum. Even with the enhancement of fortune, some opportunities are still needed to complete the cultivation of consciousness. For this “Ancient Relic Consciousness Cultivation” experiment and in world transactions, Principal Mei specifically relocated her Qi Observation Technique research laboratory secretly to the Expanding Realm. Because the so-called transaction is described ambiguously, no witch knows when, where, or in what form this transaction will unfold. Therefore, it is crucial to prepare thoroughly. I also support Principal Mei’s actions in this matter. Once the Qi Observation Technique project is initiated, I can navigate through the changes propelled by fortune to avoid unnecessary assumptions and attempts that waste time and energy.
Time slowly passed, and many witches were intently watching, even though this was within their knowledge blind spots.
Even scholarly witches have their fields of expertise and areas where they are less adept at, so they were quite open-minded about it.
Until a figure arrived.
It was Mei Linde, who had just finished transferring the Qi Observation Technique project.
The subsequent facility adjustments and adaptation to the new environment no longer required her presence.
So she hurried to this place and moved very lightly, fearing to create any noise that might disturb the focused atmosphere.
Although she was already psychologically prepared, when Mei Linde saw a group of extraordinary scholarly witches intently observing Xiao Liu, her heart still could not remain calm.
Of course, talent is always more unreasonable than diligence and accumulation.
She stood quietly by the side until I noticed her presence.
“Sister Mei is here.” I raised my head and inadvertently saw this familiar figure.
I indeed did not notice Principal Mei’s arrival; on the one hand, I focused all my attention on the topic of consciousness cultivation, and on the other hand, as an established extraordinary, she could easily avoid detection.
“Yes~” Seeing me take the initiative to speak, Principal Mei immediately approached warmly. “The Qi Observation Technique project has been mostly set up; it’s expected to fully cooperate by tomorrow. How’s your progress?”
“I’m already on track. I need to trouble Sister Mei and the other sisters participating in the Qi Observation Technique project.”
“Not a bother. They are all quite excited,” Principal Mei waved her hand and said with a smile.
This wasn’t flattery but the truth.
Those witches were extremely enthusiastic about what they were going to do.
Knowing that the witches involved in the Qi Observation Technique project had a high level of confidentiality, they were well aware of what they were doing.
All project topics related to the pulse of the Main World are confidential.
The incident of the extraordinary confrontation in the Rosson wasteland was essentially an indirect result of a Qi Observation Technique experiment information leak.
Thus, carrying out the Qi Observation Technique experiment in the Expanding Realm is much more manageable than in the Core Realm.
Moreover, the Witch Academy holds the initiative, and the other party does not know how the witches plan the world’s pulse nor what hidden cards they have!
“Then I’ll prepare a bit more today, and rest to adjust my state. I hope everything goes smoothly starting tomorrow.” Upon hearing Principal Mei say this, I immediately responded.
…
Game World.
Upon learning that Yang Yuelan in the Game World was actually just a clone, the efforts and schemes of these wizard apprentices turned out to be a complete joke, which dealt a severe blow to them.
After all, before this, they were still thinking about having a wizard tower of their own in the Main World, yet everything had just slipped away from them.
This kind of gap was hard for them to bear!
However, since the situation had occurred, and they were all experienced wizard apprentices who had weathered many storms, they quickly adjusted their mental state.
It was fine that the bounty on that little witch had fallen through, just like their previous task to negotiate with the higher-ups of the Game World for the All Worlds Terminal.
In the end, wasn’t it the incident in the Main World that left them unable to do anything?
So they quickly began planning this Game World, as this was still a world worth exploring!
If they could grasp this world in their hands, it would still be a significant achievement.
Of course, this was the only thing that they could do.
It had been a long time since they had designed the ambush to kill that little witch at the cost of an underground city.
They hadn’t done nothing.
Though an entire underground city didn’t mean much to the high council members of the game world, the impact caused by the death of so many people was far greater than they had expected. Originally, the high councilors thought sacrificing a comparatively worthless underground city to eliminate a Catastrophe Witch would be quite worthwhile.
Even if it would bring serious consequences, they were prepared to go along with it under the influence of the wizards.
However, they never expected that in the end, they did not kill the Catastrophe Witch, and the destruction of an entire underground city had resulted in extraordinarily significant consequences.
Currently, the trust of the supreme council members in the wizard apprentices has plummeted to an all-time low.
Yet due to the pressure from the witches and their decision to join the Void faction, they still couldn’t completely sever ties with the wizard apprentices.
If they completely pushed the extraordinary wizards toward the extraordinary witches’ side, then their world might be completely doomed! It was as if the world cemetery they once witnessed in the Void would be their fate.
But now, whether it was the Supreme Council or the wizard apprentices, all needed to calm down.
At the same time, they all had their own schemes.
The members of the Supreme Council wanted to maintain their relationship with the extraordinary wizards, but they could not accept the repeatedly failing wizard apprentices.
Meanwhile, the wizard apprentices were secretly plotting something in the Game World. The first thing that came to their mind was… the Real Protection Association, which was currently the most talked-about organization in the Game World!
And the “Mr. Monroe” they controlled was the nominal spiritual leader of the Real Protection Association.
They needed to strengthen this resistance organization until they possessed the power to overturn the Game regime from its roots.
What these wizard apprentices did not know was that at this moment, “Monroe” was closely interacting with the supreme councilors.
“Number 11, my time is precious. Although I don’t know what you and Number 02 are up to lately, I don’t think we need to meet privately given the current tensions in the world.”
“05, we’re meeting using roles, so don’t make up busy excuses. Aren’t you willing to meet for just a little time? I have some important matters to discuss with you, concerning… regarding those wizard apprentices and… Monroe.” As Number 11 clapped, a figure stepped out.
Monroe? Shouldn’t he be one of those wizards’ dogs? 05 frowned vaguely at the reflection, puzzled, “How did you manage to bring him here?”
“You guess~” Number 11 looked at the invited Number 05, a barely noticeable dangerous smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.
