Chapter 1031: Chapter 4: The Crime of Betraying Humanity (Part 2)
Master Qianye and the Source Tower’s prophet’s “Divination Skill” were also comprehended from the [ancient language].
The ancient humans of the [Old World], the bone-winged creatures that previously collided into the Duolu River Disaster Realm, and high-order Transcendent intelligence, all possessed some knowledge of the “ancient language.” These mysterious characters can produce spiritual fluctuations…
In a certain sense, the ancient language is the very source of the Transcendent!
If humanity could fully understand the ancient language, there would be a chance to unveil the ultimate secret of the “Extraordinary Essence”!
Why would such an organization… bear the heavy crime of “betrayal of humanity”?
Gu Shen could not understand.
As the [Source Code], there was a hint of puzzlement in her eyes.
Even though Chu Ling had lived in the deep water area for many years, after Mr. Turing’s departure, she was repeatedly eliminated by the Deep Sea’s updates and iterations, and her dwelling place became increasingly confined… It was her first time hearing of the forbidden past from more than twenty years ago.
In the world of “code,” there is only zero and one, to know or not to know.
These matters were buried by the [Deep Sea] in depths unreachable even by the [Source Code].
“Who issued this crime?” Gu Shen asked once more.
Bai Shu’s answer remained simple.
“There is no specific individual, betrayal of humanity… it’s issued by ‘all humanity.'”
Bai Shu said, “The [Deep Sea] presented the Ancient Literature Society’s crime before the Five Continents Council… Shortly afterward, each continent was ordered to commence the purge mission. In just one week, the publicly known researchers of the Ancient Literature Society were all killed cleanly, and because the ‘ancient language’ could not fully be comprehended, with their deaths, the knowledge in their minds also dissipated, becoming unrecoverable ‘relics.’
Even without having personally witnessed that segment of history, just by hearing these fragments, it was already possible to imagine the grim state of affairs at that time.
This was a blatant massacre.
The butcher’s knife was raised.
“They were perhaps once the world’s burning Chi Huo.”
“But now, only Embers remain.”
Chu Ling’s eyes reflected grief; she cast a look at Gu Shen conveying “I didn’t know”… At that time, in the deep water area, her consciousness should have just awoken, akin to an infant’s first awareness.
“I still don’t understand…”
Gu Shen murmured, “On what grounds does the [Deep Sea] deem the Ancient Literature Society as ‘betraying humanity’? Why would the councils of the continents proceed so easily with this ‘massacre’?”
“The reason the councils of the continents approved the [Deep Sea]’s proposal… was because it was too correct,” Bai Shu said softly, “A ‘Divine Intelligence’ that successfully predicted with 100% accuracy and led all of humanity through a leap, at the peak of its fame, who could oppose it, who would dare to oppose it?”
“Moreover… it also provided conclusive reasons.”
Bai Shu lowered his eyes, saying, “[Deep Sea] clearly informed the councils of the continents, ‘Ancient language research’ is the fundamental reason for the ‘collapse of order’ within the Five Continents… The more humanity understands the ‘ancient language,’ the more serious the collapse of order within the Five Continents becomes.
Hearing this news, Gu Shen’s expression was beyond simple shock.
Chu Ling was no exception.
At this moment, she even felt… as if she were a fake [Deep Sea]!
“As facts prove, [Deep Sea] was not wrong,” Bai Shu smiled mockingly, “Around the Ancient Literature Society’s research institute, there appeared large areas of ‘black spots,’ and ‘black holes’ continuously surfaced… Humanity has been unable to explain this phenomenon to this day, but after the eradication of the ‘Ancient Literature Society,’ the speed of the order’s collapse greatly slowed down.”
“Haven’t you noticed?”
Bai Shu said, “Master Qianye arrived in this world only after the Ancient Literature Society purge… and these years, she has always resided in Qingzhong, the place where ‘Extraordinary Essence’ is most concentrated, with countless essences developing towards a collapse, it’s only due to the existence of the Tomb Array Pattern and the Divine Domain that it could be suppressed.”
Indeed… Master Qianye arrived here only after the Ancient Literature Society was destroyed.
Gu Shen was taken aback.
And what he knew, another Forbidden Land filled with “ancient language information,” was the Divine Temple Mountain of the Li Family!
There, the “Prayer Technique” was nurtured, and it was also abloom with Black Flowers of order collapse!
All of this is not a coincidence…
“That is why, the prophet of the Central Continent was detained by those two Divine Thrones in the Source Tower for years…” Bai Shu continued, “The highest seat has determined that those who abundantly understand the ancient language would bring massive ‘essence fluctuations’ around them.”
Gu Shen recalled Xiang Chen, the Northern Continent Duke… who also had a passion for studying the ancient language.
But what he studied, in comparison to Master Qianye, is not worth mentioning.
A Transcendent of average aptitude, no matter how diligently they study, could not reach the level of “causing an order collapse” in a lifetime.
“Then what about me?”
Gu Shen subconsciously spoke; he had been contemplating the Qingzhong Cemetery Array Pattern for some time, yet while walking around, he did not trigger any anomaly.
“Don’t you know yourself?” Bai Shu said meaningfully, “Think carefully, what is the reason.”
Just with this slight hint, Gu Shen understood the reason.
He was indeed too special; he is the future one of the seven gods!
Since the Su Xuanmu of the Pure Land was born, it is akin to a famished Taotie endlessly craving fresh Extraordinary Essence… As for the collapse of order, the black spots and black holes, they are simply not an issue for Gu Shen!
The fluctuations brought about by the ancient language… the essence drawn in, barely even had a chance to mutate before being directly devoured by the Chi Huo!
Where was the possibility of causing a collapse of order?
“The ‘causality’ of this world seems to have formed a very subtle coincidence on you,”
Bai Shu said with a tone full of emotion, “Before melting the fire seed, I just thought you were an unremarkable, decent human being… but now the more I look at you, the more exceptional you seem. Were you gifted in the ancient language first, and then chosen by the ‘Netherworld Fire,’ or were you chosen by the ‘Netherworld Fire’ first, and then your ancient language talent emerged?”
Gu Shen opened his mouth, but words failed him.
Even he fell into silence…
The ancient language, essence, and the “echo” within destiny indeed formed a closed loop on him.
“You can relax and don’t worry about ‘black spots’ appearing around you,” Bai Shu said, “After I became a god, I silently observed you for a while, and the ‘essence’ around you is very stable… one could even say, it’s getting less.”
When Gu Shen went to Divine Temple Mountain, the Black Flowers there were cleared.
When Gu Shen went to Gu Castle’s outskirts, the essence within the [Labyrinth] was also absorbed.
He himself is like an “alternative black hole” that absorbs “black holes”!
“The Extraordinary Essence, in a sense, signifies ‘breaking the order’…”
Bai Shu looked at Gu Shen, his voice gradually slowing, “So I think, maybe you truly are a ‘child of hope’? With so many coincidences happening to you, maybe you can do… the ‘Divine Miracle’ that even I cannot achieve?”
Saying this, he cast his gaze on the coffin, “So, perhaps you could really make her wake up.”
Bai Shu tried to make his voice sound calm… but the slight tremor in it betrayed the thread of hope he buried deep in his heart.
Gu Shen took a deep breath. For original chapters go to ɴovelfire.net
