Li Ge was immersed in guiding the creation of the dimensional world.
This was not simply a matter of opening up space.
He also had to put the rules he had already inscribed into actual operation through things that existed.
Of course, Li Ge did not yet have enough energy or matter to turn the virtual into the real, assimilating it to fill the world.
So, for now, Li Ge was merely using tiny amounts of energy and information to form aggregates, then using these as the basis to continually manifest everything within the dimensional world.
Thus, although the dimensional world Li Ge was creating looked vast and contained all sorts of things, it had not actually consumed much energy.
Because, in essence, the current dimensional world was only a virtual world.
Li Ge did not intend to create a particularly large space either. After all, he was not really trying to create one to develop a civilization; he only wanted to make things convenient for himself.
Even game companies could design boundless game worlds. For Li Ge, who possessed a design ability, it was naturally a piece of cake.
In reality, the space he had created was only a cube with sides one thousand meters long.
Li Ge had not designed any wonders or complex terrain, only a flat expanse of land.
Sand, snowy fields, forests, bodies of water-Li Ge had not designed a single one.
He could simply build whatever terrain he wanted later.
At most, he had set the resources from those regions to generate randomly across the land so it would not look so monotonous.
As for the Nether and the End, Li Ge maintained that he was merely a builder who, at most, occasionally watched other players' commentary videos.
There was no need to get involved with things he did not understand.
What Li Ge liked most about Minecraft was how everything was made of blocks, along with some of its features.
There was no need to copy Minecraft completely.
Precisely because Li Ge had abandoned designing and manifesting many things, and had made some changes according to his own ideas, creating the dimensional world had not taken him much time.
Ultimately, not much time had passed since Li Ge awakened his abilities, and he had not deliberately used Scan and Record to gather information on things.
So his Divinity did not contain much information about things for him to manifest.
Moreover, to finish creating the space as quickly as possible, Li Ge had only kept his Energy Absorption ability absorbing Redstone energy.
It was precisely because of this that the Professor had been able to send his consciousness into the mental space within Li Ge's mind.
By the time the Professor saw him, he had already detected the Professor's consciousness.
But at that moment, Li Ge had been integrating the rules into the space, so he had ignored him.
As the land completely covered this space with its thousand-meter sides, this silent yet grand act of creation drew to a close.
Li Ge was about to return his consciousness to his body when he suddenly thought of something.
With a thought, various rules once again separated from the space-oh... no, the dimensional world!
Some of them split off from within it and condensed once more into a palm-sized grass block.
This block was not only a concentration of rules, but also this world's operating system, or rather, its Heavenly Dao.
When he was not handling things personally, this system would operate the world's rules in his place.
With a wave of his hand, Li Ge directly merged the grass block into the square sun overhead.
With a thought, his soul left the chaos formed by his Divinity, and the Divinity automatically shrank and returned to Li Ge's soul.
In the real world, although the X-Men were shocked by the Professor's words, they did not discuss them at length.
After all, Li Ge was still lying on the floor.
Whether what the Professor said was true or not, they could wait until Li Ge regained consciousness and ask him themselves.
Now that they had confirmed Li Ge was not in any danger, they felt reassured.
Still, leaving Li Ge lying on the floor like this would not do.
They had no idea when Li Ge would wake up.
So, after discussing it, they took Li Ge to their medical room and settled him onto a hospital bed.
Storm and Phoenix were just about to hook Li Ge up to various monitoring devices when they saw his eyelids begin to flutter.
The next second, Li Ge opened his eyes.
"God, you're finally awake. We thought something dangerous had happened to you."
"That's wonderful, Li Ge! Thank goodness you're all right!"
Storm and Phoenix had been watching Li Ge's condition the whole time, so naturally, they noticed the moment he woke.
The Professor and the other two, who had already reached the medical room's doorway, naturally heard the words of the two women who had stayed behind to look after Li Ge.
"Quick, Scott! Push me back."
The Professor impatiently urged Cyclops to take him back. His excited reaction astonished Cyclops.
He had almost never seen the Professor react this way. In his mind, the Professor had always been calm and wise.
"Ha! Professor, you're so excited. Don't tell me you actually believe that kid created a world?"
Even Wolverine could not resist teasing him.
"Scott, Logan, you don't have telepathic abilities. You wouldn't understand what the things I saw in Li Ge's mental space represented."
"I sensed reality and order, like another world different from the real one."
The Professor offered only a brief explanation, his gaze fixed on the medical room.
Cyclops swallowed the words he had been about to say when he saw the Professor's expression.
The three quickly came over to Li Ge.
Li Ge was explaining something to Storm and Phoenix.
"Yes, that's right!"
"I did create a world!"
"But it's not as incredible as you're imagining. I only created a virtual world."
"To make it completely real, I'll still need a lot of energy or matter to fill it."
"In fact, the usable space right now is only one cubic meter."
"When my world is big enough, I can invite you inside to have some fun. I've designed plenty of interesting rules in there."
The Professor and the others arrived just in time to hear Li Ge's explanation, and their expressions all changed somewhat.
The Professor wore an expression that said he had expected as much, and his face, now calm again, still held a trace of contemplation.
Cyclops was startled at first, then excited. After all, compared to creating a world, the flaw in his own ability was only a minor problem.
It looked like he could finally get rid of these damned glasses.
"Oh... fuck!"
Wolverine's reaction was much more direct.
Li Ge also noticed the Professor and the others, but he did not continue explaining.
He turned his gaze to Cyclops's face and saw his excitement.
Li Ge still felt somewhat embarrassed. After all, he had promised to help Cyclops resolve the flaw in his ability.
He had not expected that creating the space would force him to follow the process through and create a virtual dimension.
And it had held things up for so long.
