"In short, it's just a time-waster. As long as you don't actively cause trouble, you'll pass easily... I 'Reincarnation three cycles, but judging from how long you've been spacing out, you've probably only Reincarnation one, and you just happened to run into me who arrived earlier."
A man dressed entirely in black slowly appeared.
Jabari.
"Hello, Scholar, I've heard so much about you." Jabari with a smile.
"Hello." Su Luo nodded in response, then opened the System Panel and tested some of her other abilities.
[Su Luo: Alive]
[Level: 11 (99.9%)]
[...]
The System Panel is working fine, the Heartfire is working fine, the Dream World is working fine, the [Ten Thousand Worlds] panel is working fine, and even the [Eye of Guixu] is working fine...
It seems that Su Luo has truly escaped the Illusion Realm.
"How many [Dao Marks ] did you take?" Su Luo looked at Jabari, carefully examining this former [Strongest Silver Badge].
In the 100,001 Survival World, no one dares to claim they are the most powerful Rainbow Badge, nor do they dare to claim they are the strongest Gold Badge.
But Jabari in the past was most likely the most powerful Silver Badge.
"I've already learned four. I selected a less common one from the basic law library and studied it, using some methods..."
The two started chatting and exchanged some information.
"Therefore, it's very likely that every Survivor will have a [Protagonist] by their side."
Su Luo was not surprised at all after listening to Jabari's story, and finally said this.
Jabari nodded, holding his short sword. "Yes, I do know a little about the internet culture of your Central Lands. I recognized this classic plot, which is why I brought her with me... However, she was Curse the Supreme and I've already knocked her unconscious."
"Then I suggest you destroy her physical body and soul directly, and I'll help you restore her." Su Luo shook her head.
Jabari looked at his Personal Space and found that his [Protagonist] had become a water tap.
"... Okay, maybe you're right."
Jabari did as instructed, and then he and Su Luo walked deeper into the [Heart-Questioning Hall].
As they walked, Jabari recounted the information he possessed that the Protagonist knew:
"The [Heart-Questioning Hall] has four main stages. The theme of the first stage, which is [Tranquility], and the theme of the second stage, [Perseverance], are different for each individual."
"With each level you pass, the difficulty increases, and the rewards also increase. Take the most common [Talent Advancement Card] as an example; its quality increases by one tier with each level you pass."
"If you pass all four trials, you will have the opportunity to visit the Supreme God [the Divine Kingdom]."
Su Luo listened and nodded silently.
This is why Jabari went directly to the [Heart-Questioning Hall] after entering the city.
He wanted to make direct contact with one of the twelve Supreme Gods.
The two walked through the forest path to the foot of the Heart-Questioning Hall mountain.
An endless stone staircase stretches from the foot of the mountain straight up into the sea of clouds and the sky, with no end in sight. Countless gods stop to watch from afar, some hesitate to move forward, and some grit their teeth and use the strength of defecating to climb the stairs.
Su Luo saw a familiar figure slowly climbing upwards.
The passersby outside had given a long explanation of the Fan Gao, and now he was calmly striding forward, climbing the ten thousand steps.
"[The Chief God] can climb at least 100,000 steps. The key to this level is actually how many more steps you can climb beyond your own limits," Jabari continued.
"For Survivors, [perseverance] is relatively simple."
Jabari took two steps forward with great interest, then turned back to look at Su Luo.
"You've passed the challenge, aren't you coming?"
Su Luo stood still and said calmly:
"Speaking of which, I'm still very curious about what your Talent is."
Jabari smiled, revealing remarkably white teeth.
"This isn't a private matter to me, but that doesn't mean I can say whatever I want..."
"How about this, we exchange Talent information."
Su Luo's Talent had already been pretty much guessed by the other Survivors, Jabari's actions practically gave Su Luo his Talent information for free.
Without much hesitation, Su Luo truthfully revealed her Talent.
"That's terrifying. It didn't even provide any boost to its combat power, yet it still managed to become Rainbow Badge."
Jabari looked at him with admiration.
This Talent is extremely weak among those with Rainbow Badge and Strong Gold Badge.
Are there inherently different levels of Talent strength?
Yes, one Talent effect doubles Attribute Growth, and the other Talent effect temporarily increases a single Attribute by one. The former Talent is clearly more powerful.
What about Talents with different effects?
One person's Talent is a simulator, while another's Talent is information prompts; it's difficult to compare the strength of these Talents.
If most people can't figure out how to use a Talent effectively, then that Talent is weak.
"My Talent is rather peculiar," Jabari said with a smile. "I call it [Absolute Domination]."
"I can completely control everything about myself—body, soul, Fate, Authority... My power is above all else."
Su Luo seemed moved, and nodded after listening.
"You go up first, I'll wait here for a while."
Jabari gave Su Luo a strange look, then turned and walked up the towering staircase.
With each step, he ascended ten thousand steps, his figure soaring upwards, instantly breaking through the sea of clouds and disappearing into the horizon.
Su Luo stood still, her gaze lowered, waiting Jingjing for a long time.
He couldn't be sure if he was still in the Illusion Realm.
Ye Xu couldn't tell them apart, and neither could Qiao Wenxi from the Large Dungeon.
The situation where one senses something is wrong within the Illusion Realm is extremely rare. After reaching Attribute 20, such trashy Illusion Realm almost cease to exist, making it completely self-consistent.
Being trapped in the Illusion Realm for a long time usually means you can't get out of it.
If it were a contest of magic, Su Luo wouldn't even be pulled into the Illusion Realm, but this is Illusion Realm at the [Law] level, and it's more powerful than ever before.
This is an advanced version of the "Brain in a Vat". Behind this "vat" is not only a simulation system that can Perfect simulate the world and deceive perception, but it can also dynamically construct a self-consistent world according to Su Luo's own will.
This Illusion Realm itself is...
Evolution!
Furthermore, the Evolution was extremely rapid, and before Su Luo even realized something was wrong, it had already constructed an absolutely Perfect Illusion Realm.
Su Luo smiled.
"Use my moves against me?"
It's unclear whether this Illusion Realm itself possesses Evolution- related abilities and thus caught on to Su Luo's coattails, or whether it directly copied a trace of Su Luo's Evolution abilities.
But it doesn't really matter.
[Evolution-Nullification Law]
Wisps of pitch-black Heartfire Spread from the cracks, silently filling the sky and earth like cockroaches.
Black Flames swept through temples, bustling markets, towering staircases, and Relief Cities, penetrating the Origin Realm and Spread into the Void.
The black flames danced and scorched everything, leaving it riddled with holes.
In the silent, Black Flames, like Ocean, the world collapsed.
