Lin Aotian thought for a moment and said, "Our world might not be the real world."
How so?
"Actually, I was never really clear on this either. It was only after I spent some time on Blue Star, Bored, and read some novels that I finally figured things out."
"Or to be more precise, it should be considered a hypothesis, since there's no way to verify it at the moment!"
"You must have read the novel, right?"
Ling Yi: "..."
Could Lin Aotian have guessed the truth?
" What If...? every world in the All Heavens and Myriad Worlds were a novel world, would you understand what I mean?"
Ling Yi nodded; he understood perfectly.
"Since every event is derived from the novel, it's not surprising that there's Child of Karmic Luck, the Protagonist."
"The so-called 'Power of Origin ' is actually an energy generated by readers while they are reading the novel, such as popularity or the Vow Power."
"And these energies, in the world of novels, become the Power of Origin we are familiar with."
"Then, from this Power of Origin, Hua Wei Genki, Karmic Luck, rules, and so on."
Good heavens, Lin Aotian actually guessed the truth.
That's right, it differs somewhat from the actual situation.
The world of the novel is a world of the novel, but the All Heavens and Myriad Worlds of this world are merely a synthesis and evolution of nine novels.
Moreover, all nine novels were written by the same author.
It wasn't what Lin Aotian had guessed at all; each world was a novel in itself.
"However, novels vary in quality. The more popular a novel is, the more Power of Origin. As long as a novel remains popular, its Power of Origin should be inexhaustible."
"The two worlds I encountered before were probably derived from two popular novels."
"Therefore, even if the Power of Origin is exhausted, there will still be a continuous stream of primordial lands being born."
"And the Protagonist of the novel's world should be the converter between external energy and Power of Origin."
This idea, you know, actually makes some sense.
"Therefore, when I kill these two Protagonist, their worlds will no longer have the origin here."
At this point, Lin Aotian saw Ling Yi.
"The reason why your body continuously generates Power of Origin, I suspect, is that you must be the Protagonist of a novel."
"However, before cultivating the Source Devouring Technique, the Power of Origin automatically belongs to the current world."
"But now that you've cultivated the Source Devouring Technique, you've intercepted the Power of Origin."
Ling Yi pondered. Although Lin Aotian's statement was somewhat biased, there was one point he might be right about.
The Power of Origin is not a source place in the real world, but rather an energy transformed from things like popularity or Vow Power.
This perfectly matches what Ling Yi had guessed was the author's purpose.
"Is it really possible to turn something unreal into something real?"
At this moment, Lin Aotian spoke up again, "Of course, all of this is just my speculation."
"Perhaps only by breaking through that eggshell beyond All Heavens and Myriad Worlds can we find out."
However, there were some things Lin Aotian didn't say.
For example, the dangerous feeling Ling Yi gave him, Lin Aotian wanted to ask, but every time he tried to open his mouth, he felt a pang of fear.
This made Lin Aotian increasingly aware that Ling Yi's background was definitely not simple.
It's probably not just about being the Protagonist.
Ling Yi was also thinking about this problem.
If he is the Protagonist, then which novel is Protagonist of?
Is he also the author of these nine novels, and the Protagonist of one of them?
If so, it means that this author has created his tenth novel.
I am the Protagonist of the tenth novel.
If not, then I must be a random intruder, or perhaps the Protagonist of another novel.
It merely Borrow the settings from these nine novels.
There are many problems involved, but you can't figure them out just by thinking about them.
Testing is required.
Meanwhile, on the Forgotten Planet in the Golden Crow Realm, Ling Yi's main body had already synchronized the memories of his Clone.
"System, come on, let's have a chat!"
[Ding, what would you like to talk about, host?]
Am I really the Protagonist of a novel?
[Ding, I'm sorry, I don't know either.]
"Didn't you bring me into this world and let me switch places with the original body?"
[Ding, no, there is no relevant record in the system's database, or the relevant record has been deleted.]
[Ding! All system data records started from the moment it bound to the host, and there are still records!]
[Ding! But one thing is certain: a third party has been involved in this.]
"A third-party force?" Ling Yi frowned.
However, Ling Yi did not completely believe the system's words.
Many things can only be confirmed by verifying them yourself.
Opening the dynamic Map, Liu Chen has now left the area of Oasis Sacred City and is slowly heading north.
Clearly, this kid wants to go to the Arctic Sacred City.
Ling Yi drew a Teleport Talisman in mid-air and sent it directly into the sky.
The next moment, a white light flashed, and Liu Chen's figure reappeared in front of Ling Yi.
Liu Chen was stunned for a moment, but when he saw Ling Yi, his expression immediately turned ugly.
It took him half a day to finally leave the Oasis Sacred City, only to be dragged back by Ling Yi in Kung Fu Hustle.
"Can't I even leave Oasis Sacred City?" Liu Chen said through gritted teeth.
Ling Yi frowned. He could clearly feel that the speed at which the Power of Origin increased significantly the moment Liu Chen appeared.
This proves one thing: the real world from which the Power of Origin originates should belong to the same world as the author.
Otherwise, Liu Chen wouldn't have had such a significant impact on him.
Ling Yi hadn't paid much attention to it before, so he overlooked this matter.
But after Lin Aotian's reminder, the difference became obvious.
However, Ling Yi could only perceive the Changes in himself, but he couldn't see the Changes in Liu Chen.
Ling Yi couldn't help but think of the Seven Revolutions Motian Art again.
The Seven Revolutions Motian Art contains methods for cultivating the Vow Power.
Perhaps, cultivating the Seven Revolutions Motian Art will bring unexpected gains.
Ling Yi increasingly felt that these three God Grade cultivation techniques were mysteriously connected to each other.
Ling Yi transmitted some Voice Transmission to Liu Yun, and then flew north with Liu Chen.
"Where are you taking me?" Liu Chen couldn't help but ask.
"Didn't you want to go to the Arctic Sacred Land? I'll take you there right now."
Liu Chen's face darkened considerably. He did indeed want to go to the Arctic Sacred Land, but not in this way.
"To be honest, I really don't understand your thought process. Do you even know how far it is between the Oasis Sacred Land and the Arctic Sacred Land?"
"Nearly 60,000 kilometers, and the entire middle section is desert."
"With your cultivation level of Qi and Blood First Layer, do you think you can cross a 60,000-kilometer desert?"
Liu Chen remained silent, but his heart was filled with dread.
Is it really that far?
He really didn't know that.
He was just feeling frustrated and had nowhere to vent his anger, and in a moment of impulsiveness, he decided to leave the Oasis Sacred City.
As for what would happen after he left, he hadn't thought about it at all. As long as Ling Yi left Liu Yun, that was fine.
That's completely childish behavior.
"I told you, I can offer you some compensation, help you solve the stone vein problem, and even turn you into a cultivation genius."
"You just left in a huff because you were angry. Even if you want revenge, do you think you can find a way to get it anywhere else after leaving Oasis Sacred City?"
"That's utterly Tianzhen and laughable."
"That's my own business," Liu Chen said, sticking out his neck.
Do you know who the lord of the Arctic Sacred City is?
"The lord of the Arctic Sacred City is named Situ Yue."
Liu Chen was taken aback. " Situ Yue? Isn't that the name of the leader of the Myriad Worlds Alliance?"
"That's right, he's the leader of the Myriad Worlds Alliance."
"Then do you even know why Situ Yue gave up her comfortable position as Alliance Leader to go to Forgotten Planet and become the Holy Lord of some Sacred City?"
Liu Chen instinctively asked, "Why?"
"He cultivated a technique that required consuming large amounts of flesh and blood, but outside of the Forgotten Planet, he dared not Wuji devour the flesh and blood of living beings."
"But there's no problem on this Forgotten Planet, since it's easy to get in but difficult to get out of this Forgotten Star System."
"He can devour the flesh and blood of other criminals Wuji, thereby increasing his strength."
"Even if you reach the Arctic Sacred City, you'll just be a lamb entering a tiger's den, serving food to Situ Yue."
"Who knows if what you're saying is true or false?" Liu Chen retorted.
Ling Yi chuckled, "I'm giving you one more chance to choose."
"Submit to me, and I can turn you into a cultivation genius, guaranteeing you entry into the Sea Contemplation Realm within three years."
"Or, I could just throw you into the desert right now and leave you to fend for yourself!"
"Is saving face more important, or is life and death more important? The choice is yours."
Liu Chen looked down at the endless desert rushing past, caught in a dilemma.
Looking at Liu Chen's expression, Ling Yi found it even more amusing.
The Protagonist, Liu Chen, is not only mentally deficient, but also incredibly childish.
They are easily influenced by their emotions when making decisions.
When someone gets carried away, they're capable of anything.
I'll say it again.
This guy is the Protagonist; without the Protagonist Aura, he definitely wouldn't survive three chapters.
"I... I choose the first one," Liu Chen said dejectedly.
"The first one?" Ling Yi asked jokingly.
"I... I choose to submit." After saying this, Liu Chen felt as if all his energy had been drained away.
"Looks like you're not stupid after all!"
Liu Chen's face turned completely red. Was it a matter of being stupid or not? It was a matter of life and death.
He had no choice at all.
Ling Yi glanced at the dynamic Map, and sure enough, Liu Chen's marker was still a dark, almost blackish red.
"I forgot to tell you something: I can see other people's hostility and malice towards me."
"What I want is genuine submission; mere verbal submission will not suffice."
As Ling Yi spoke, he landed directly in the desert below, casually tossing Liu Chen aside.
Ignoring Liu Chen, she continued walking forward.
Without Ling Yi's protective Genki, Liu Chen immediately felt a suffocating heatwave sweep over him.
Watching Ling Yi's figure gradually disappear into the distance, Liu Chen gritted his teeth and followed.
Ling Yi sneered. Arrogant? Obsessive? Psychopath?
You're doomed if I don't treat you.
