An endless sea of information flooded into Shen Feng's mind, and his consciousness entered the relay tower's information transmission system as well, torn apart like a net.
He first sensed a field of golden auspicious clouds appearing before his consciousness. Then, as if being ripped into pieces, his consciousness was dispersed among relay towers across the globe.
Mexico, New York, Los Angeles, Tokyo, London, Moscow, and countless others.
Relay towers had formed in every city with a population of over a million.
These relay towers varied in size, receiving signals of different strengths and forming a vast information network.
The signals they received came from throughout the universe—even from cosmic microwave background radiation, from unknown spatial rifts, from other parallel universes!
In that instant, Shen Feng's consciousness seemed to become the universe itself. He saw primitive silicon-based life emerging on planets at a suitable distance from their stars; saw nameless celestial bodies blazing beside Orion; saw C-rays glimmering in the darkness of the Tannhäuser Gate; saw a massive black hole swallowing and spewing light at the center of the Milky Way; saw the infinite dead silence at the end of the universe.
Then his consciousness ascended once more, rising above the universe and witnessing magnificent sights.
Information from countless parallel universes flashed past before his eyes.
Universes filled with energy-based lifeforms, universes where black holes devoured everything, universes occupied by terrifying, bizarre, indescribable colossal creatures, universes filled with the trails of spacecraft, universes containing only one supergiant planet, and countless more.
The strange sights nearly stopped Shen Feng from thinking, leaving behind only profound shock.
Yet aside from those universes brimming with vigorous life—passionate, terrifying, or bizarre—the overwhelming majority were black.
There was only darkness. No light, no heat. The universes had already fallen completely silent, without the slightest trace
