Chapter 867: System Evolution?
Gu Heng was quite puzzled.
The World Origin Embryo has been repaired, and the completion of the second stage of the "Mysterious Heaven Forbidden Zone" is beginning to make sense. However, he doesn't quite understand why the final stage seems to have been completed as well.
That's so strange.
But just as Gu Heng was still puzzled by the prompt in his mind, the Crimson Flame Demon Immortal had already made his move!
"Brother Gu, this item is mine now!"
His eyes widened, a near-mad desire flashing within them!
Immediately, he pressed his hands firmly against the newly repaired World Origin Embryo, and a powerful suction force surged from his hands, frantically devouring the power contained within the silver-white jade wall. Almost instantly, the Crimson Flame Demon Immortal's body underwent some unexpected change.
Gu Heng stared in disbelief as the Crimson Flame Demon Immortal's body was covered by a kind of silvery-white light, even its hideous face was swallowed up, and it transformed from a person into some indescribable light and shadow.
Damn, Brother Hua, do you not want to continue being a human being?
Everything changed very quickly.
Gu Heng had barely come to his senses when the world before him vanished.
In its place was a silver-clad figure that had once been known as the "Crimson Flame Demon Immortal".
"Brother Hua?"
Gu Heng said in a low voice.
"So... this is the power of God?"
The Crimson Flame Demon Immortal's voice remained the same, but at this moment he seemed lost in the power he had just gained, falling into some kind of frenzied intoxication.
But soon, the Crimson Flame Demon Fairy's intoxication was shattered!
"Uh!"
"what happened?!"
Crimson Flame Demon Immortal looked at his body. His flesh was still shrouded in a kind of silver light, but now he suddenly couldn't feel any power!
"What...what happened to the power of Heaven's Dao?"
The Crimson Flame Demon Fairy's words were filled with confusion and fear.
"No, there's something else within the origin of this world!"
Gu Heng looked at the Crimson Flame Demon Immortal with confusion. The silver light that had enveloped him was now rapidly dimming, like ice and snow melting away. The Crimson Flame Demon Immortal suddenly turned his head to look at Gu Heng and let out a hoarse roar.
"You... it was all your doing!" "You tampered with the World Origin Embryo!"
The Crimson Flame Demon Immortal's eyes were bloodshot as he glared at Gu Heng, his words filled with utter madness.
Faced with the Crimson Flame Demon Immortal's angry rebuke, Gu Heng was completely bewildered. Before he could even defend himself, the Crimson Flame Demon Immortal exploded into countless points of light!
"Brother Hua?"
Gu Heng frowned and asked, but no one could give him a response.
Damn, it's dead!
Moreover, the manner of death was gruesome, with no remains left. Even Gu Heng did not expect this situation!
As he pondered what was going on, a large number of light spots re-converged before his eyes, and soon the World Origin Embryo that had just been completely devoured reappeared!
Along with it appeared a small, lifeless figure. No, it should be described as some kind of semi-transparent projection.
"Ding!"
"System evolution is complete!"
"The new system interface is now live, eliminating the old one!"
Gu Heng's eyes lit up.
So what evolved was the "system"?!
He tried to bring up the system interface, but found that he couldn't. Instead, the small female projection in front of him said, "What do you need, host?"
The cold, impersonal voice was quite different from the system's usual voice prompts. At least this time, Gu Heng could clearly hear that it was a woman's voice.
And it's still very young.
Gu Heng had always wanted to know what this "system" was all about.
Could it really just be a "program" buried in his mind?
"Are you the system?"
"Yes."
"What the hell are you?"
"Key information is missing, unable to answer the host."
The system projection replied expressionlessly.
"How much crucial information are you missing? You can't possibly be unable to answer any of my questions, can you?"
Gu Heng was somewhat unhappy.
Is the so-called evolution of this system just about creating a projection for easy interaction?
If that's the case, then Gu Heng feels that this evolution is almost the same as no evolution at all. But he feels it shouldn't be like this. He went through so much trouble to complete the task, and if in the end all he got was this tiny projection of a young girl for the system...
It seems that all of that little girl's efforts over the years have been in vain.
"It depends on what the host wants to ask."
"Then please explain how the Crimson Flame Demon Immortal suddenly died, and why you're saying I did it?"
"The Crimson Flame Demon Fairy attempted to seize the primordial energy of this universe, but within this primordial energy has always been a portion of 'conceptual' energy, which is also the key energy source that facilitated my evolution. When you completed the task of repairing the world's primordial embryo, this conceptual energy prompted me to change..."
"His attempt to seize this energy was unrealistic from the start."
“In terms of relevance, the host is the ‘accomplice’ who killed him, while I am the ‘mastermind’.”
The projection of the girl actually used a particularly serious and ruthless voice to explain to Gu Heng, although Gu Heng didn't quite understand the explanation.
But at least it provided an answer: "What is 'conceptual' energy?"
"Keywords are missing, unable to answer the question."
"...Didn't you say that it was the 'concept' energy that made you evolve? How come you don't know?"
"Although it can enable me to evolve, I don't know the composition and source of this energy, nor do I know how to analyze it."
"As long as we can get the missing key information, we can answer directly."
Gu Heng covered his forehead; the system's words were truly giving him a headache.
Logically speaking, these estimates are all systematically arranged developments, and there should be absolutely no chance involved. But does it not even know why it can evolve?
Gu Heng absolutely did not believe this explanation.
"So what exactly have you 'evolved'?"
"In this universe, my evolution has no obvious effect."
"However, I can learn the emotions of intelligent beings to give the host a better experience when interacting with me."
"If the host can find the key information I am missing, I can answer many questions for the host."
Gu Heng raised an eyebrow.
It seems that the system is no different from before, except that there is just one more troublesome thing weighing on him.
Looking for "missing key content"?
Where should we look for it?
"That's fine for now, I don't need you for the time being."
He waved his hand, and the petite girl projected by the system disappeared instantly.
Gu Heng began to return along the path he had come from. Although the Crimson Flame Demon Immortal was dead, the spatial portal he had opened had not disappeared.
When he returned to his courtyard, he felt another rather violent tremor!
"what happened?"
Gu Heng looked at Xiao Bai.
"The five divided realms will be reunited as one!"
Xiao Bai looked out at the sky and saw that four other enormous realms were approaching!
