Reality
The world named by Lu Li, the Underground World, has temporarily entered a period of slow development. Led by the female Lu Li, who is known as the Overlord, the Shadow Cult has begun to develop vigorously. According to Lu Li's guess, in addition to a large number of existence connections, the Artificial Protagonist Halo also needs the right timing.
Lu Li's main body, still in the outer space of the Starshine World, began to wriggle, and the Dreamlands, resembling an outer shell, expanded.
This is a huge, lifeless planet, covered with grayish-yellow rocks. The monsters known as the Star Calamity have never been interested in such a lifeless planet, but now they are acting out of character.
Numerous different species of Star Calamity have all climbed onto this planet, falling into a deep slumber. Their dreams are interconnected, forming a vast false world, and Lu Li, who resides on it, is the ruler of this world.
In this illusory world, Lu Li constructed a world similar to the modern world, and imported the consciousness of these Star Calamity and the parasitic life forms on them into it. After undergoing a brainwashing and shielding method that could be called "the Mystery of the Womb," all these consciousnesses became blank.
Based on the stretching and extension of consciousness caused by dreams, Lu Li Manipulation time in the false dream world, setting up a large number of intelligent fake personalities to impersonate all kinds of people in society. The consciousness of these Star Calamity also grew rapidly under the stretched time.
Parasites have poor consciousness shaping ability due to their own existence and other reasons. Even if they are designed to be born into a wealthy family and receive a good education from childhood, they are unlikely to achieve great things. On the contrary, the Star Calamity are different. They may become the bottom of society due to factors such as education and luck, but they can still rise again once given the opportunity.
Furthermore, as the Star Calamity consciousness slumbered within the dream world, Lu Li's control over this entire illusory dream world grew stronger and stronger, eventually leading him to become the master of the world, though only the master of the Dreamlands world.
As the dream cycle continues, Lu Li will reincarnate the consciousnesses that died in the dream and perform the cleansing process of the Mystery of the Womb. However, this time the cleansing will be less intense, leaving behind some of the habits they developed in their human days, which can be called instincts.
Outside, a Type I Star Calamity became extremely emaciated. Suddenly, its body exploded, turning into countless existence factors, which were absorbed by the false dream that shrouded them. The reaction of this Type I Star Calamity was like a chain reaction, with more and more Type I Star Calamity slowly turning into existence factors and being absorbed.
Later on, even Type II Star Calamity could not resist, their bodies disintegrated, and they were absorbed by the false dream as existence factors. As time went on, a few Type III Star Calamity also began to give way and were eventually completely absorbed.
Lu Li's true form, as if carrying the Dreamlands, was like a giant maw that swallowed this false dreamscape. This space and the original Shadow Dreamlands space did not have a distinction between up, down, left, and right; rather, they were more like overlapping each other.
However, because the false dream is composed of ordinary dreams, although it has absorbed a large amount of existence factors to become solid, it is still much more false than Lu Li's Shadow Dreamlands. The creatures in it are terrifyingly false, and apart from consciousness, they only have a small amount of existence factors.
Therefore, Lu Li called the initial space the Primordial World, and the absorbed false world the Star Calamity World Three. That's right, before this, Lu Li had already absorbed two other similar false worlds using the same method, which means that there are now three false worlds overlapping in the Dreamlands.
Lu Li's body writhed, then suddenly paused slightly. In the Star Calamity World Three, a humanoid consciousness had undergone a mutation. It had sensed the world's falseness and vaguely observed a higher-level Primordial World.
Lu Li then accessed the original records. This consciousness was originally only a Type II Star Calamity, but in this continuous cycle of reincarnation, their consciousness had changed. The consciousness of some parasitic organisms had become similar to that of a Type I Star Calamity in the reincarnation, while the consciousness of some Type III Star Calamity had decayed and degenerated.
The consciousness of this Type II Star Calamity, through continuous reincarnation, has approached and exceeded its original limits, even surpassing the limits of the Type III Cataclysm. Although it is still some distance from the Type IV Star Calamity, it is not far off.
Furthermore, the setting of World Three is a modern society, where any Type III level consciousness will be suppressed by Lu Li, unable to use any special abilities. After this person breaks through, he awakens an instinct as a Star Calamity: to kill other life forms and absorb their existence factors.
So this self-proclaimed Seeker of Truth began a series of small-scale murders. Then, as he absorbed more and more existence factors, his body became so much larger than in the false world that he began a massacre.
Now, this person's body is almost completely solidified. The boundaries of that world, the false world, offer him no protection whatsoever. He can easily tear open the boundaries of the world and enter Lu Li's Shadow Dreamlands.
"Interesting." Lu Li plunged his consciousness into the virtual world, using a wisp of his consciousness to form a body, watching the grand spectacle unfold in the distance. He saw a young man with starry eyes and sword-like eyebrows standing in the middle of the street, with several fighter jets firing at him from the sky.
All the bullets that hit the boy couldn't even break through his skin; only high-powered weapons like missiles could knock him down and leave wounds.
"Have you had enough?" the boy said coldly, raising an eyebrow as he caught a missile flying towards him with his bare hands and crushed it. A violent explosion occurred, but the boy then emerged from the flames without any injuries.
"The target's defenses have become stronger. Requesting a more powerful weapon. Requesting..." A stone flew by and smashed the person who was making the request into dust.
"These damned bugs, can't they just die peacefully?" The boy clapped his hands, then mustered all his strength and slammed his fist into the street. Countless cracks spread rapidly from his hand, the entire city shook instantly, a large number of buildings collapsed, people died, and then all their existence factors were absorbed into the boy's body.
"Yes, yes, that's it!" the boy shouted excitedly. "All of you insects, die! Become my resources, and I will surely reach a higher level, see through all the falsehood and baseness, and control my own destiny."
A large number of existence factors converged into the boy's body as he committed murder, causing his body to soon break through the boundary between illusion and reality. Once he broke through, he would be able to tear apart this dream and go to Lu Li's Primordial World.
"Hahaha, die, all of you! My fate is in my own hands, not in the heavens!!" the boy shouted excitedly, and his body underwent a complete transformation.
Sorry, I had some things to do at noon, and I had to go out halfway through Xu Ming. I'll finish writing now and start eating. Also, I'll resume normal updates starting today, four chapters today.
