Anaconda World
After the unusual phenomenon in Borneo became a mysterious phenomenon in this world, that very night, the leaders of all the world's major powers had the same dream.
In the dream, a figure claiming to be a celestial being instructed them not to further explore the secrets of Borneo, or they would be punished by the heavens.
Undeterred, the Japan closest to the island announced that it would send a top-tier domestic research team, escorted by the Self-Defense Forces Navy, to Borneo.
As a result, the team had barely set sail when they encountered a devastating Category 16 typhoon. Not only were all the personnel wiped out, but the storm also swept through Japan.
It caused the death or disappearance of at least half of the country's population, and the entire country was as if it had been punished by heaven, almost to the point of collapse.
The America, equally defiant, originally planned to have its warships escort them, but the warships were hit by a tsunami just as they set off.
A tsunami reaching hundreds of meters in height swept across almost all cities on the west coast of the America, affecting nearly ten million people.
Other disobedient countries also suffered natural disasters, except for Huaxia.
After all, the Huaxia are known for not interfering in the affairs of other countries. They may be curious, but they have never taken any concrete action.
After witnessing the fate of those countries that disobeyed warnings, some such ideas were completely abandoned.
Don't say you weren't warned!
Some things are better believed to be true than not.
Of course, most importantly, the being who entered the dream was dressed in a black imperial robe, and his temperament was almost identical to that of the legendary celestial being.
The top leadership of Huaxia realized this was a warning immediately, and thus luckily escaped unscathed.
The reason Xu Xiao went to the trouble of issuing a dream entry warning was that he had reached a critical moment.
They were just a hair's breadth away from completely seizing power in this realm and replacing the will of this world, but they couldn't spare the time to deal with the indigenous nations outside.
The will of the Anaconda World, seeing that it was about to lose everything, directly launched a powerful move, making all the natives of this world curious and greedy about this place.
The more unknown something is, the more it attracts human curiosity.
This is why Japan America, despite receiving warnings, still chose to take the risk.
Their superiors were blinded by curiosity and greed, which led to Xu Xiao's retaliation.
The World Will is the overall consciousness of the world itself. Although the World Will of the Anaconda World lacks intelligence and cannot directly manipulate the world's creatures like puppets, it is still capable of doing so.
But He can stir up emotions like curiosity in people's hearts, hoping to use the power of native creatures to eliminate the extraterrestrial demons.
The World Will Great Tang Twin Dragons World did the same thing, which is how those ubiquitous rebel armies were born.
However, when Xu Xiao was exposed, he had already taken control of the Yuwen Clan as his henchmen, and with his own considerable strength, he managed to kill all the rebels.
In fact, the main reason is that the influence of World Will is too small.
The influence of the World Will is like how, when faced with a choice, it can make you more inclined to choose a particular option on a whim; it is not a form of forced control.
In this respect, World Will without self is no match for an entity like the Heavenly Dao, which is artificially controlled.
The ability to think represents a qualitative change, whether for ordinary living beings or for the vast and boundless Heavenly Dao.
In the Borneo Rainforest, when Xu Xiao reappeared, everything in the rainforest was captivated by him.
He was like the center of the world, and all animals and plants instinctively obeyed his will.
"As expected, this world lacks the fundamental rule of cultivation, so even though the plants and animals are bathed in an environment rich in Spiritual Energy, they cannot develop sentience and embark on the path of cultivation."
At this moment, Xu Xiao, who had completely absorbed the World Consciousness, was quietly standing in the rainforest, comprehending everything.
He regained control of the world, his consciousness using the power of the World-Crossing Gate to survey every inch of this land.
"What a pity! This world actually has a large number of Spirit Vein underground, and even Spirit Stone have been condensed there. If it had cultivation rules, it would definitely have given birth to a brilliant cultivation civilization."
Xu Xiao stopped his investigation and scanned the world with his consciousness, discovering multiple Spirit Vein underground.
If this thing were in a cultivation world, it would definitely provoke all sorts of cultivators to the point of wanting to beat their brains out, but here, no one uses it.
"But it's not all bad news. At least for me, I can enjoy all the Spiritual Power of this world all to myself."
"With just a few modifications, this place would be an excellent natural place for spiritual practice."
With a thought, Xu Xiao's consciousness sank into his Sea of Consciousness.
Within the Sea of Consciousness stood a World-Crossing Gate radiating blue light, with two transparent orbs of light now embedded in its frame.
Xu Xiao's consciousness materialized and arrived before the World-Crossing Gate. He then grasped one of the orbs of light, preparing to alter this world.
He wants to gather all the Spirit Vein of this world together and then create a sacred place full of Spiritual Energy.
Such a massive project cannot be started with just a thought; it requires the power of the World-Crossing Gate to directly wield the World Authority.
Suddenly, a message came from the World-Crossing Gate, which stunned Xu Xiao for a moment.
[We now possess full authority over both worlds. Is it necessary to perform world docking and synchronize the two worlds?]
Xu Xiao was stunned for a moment, then overjoyed.
Could this be the true purpose of the Heavens World-Crossing Gate?
"Is synchronization still possible? What does this synchronization mean? Does it mean completely merging the two worlds?"
[When a host possesses full authority over two or more worlds, they can synchronize the two worlds.]
[Synchronized content includes: fundamental world laws (space-time and whether cultivation is possible, etc.), resources (all non-living beings in both worlds)]
[Synchronization is not fusion; the two worlds remain independent, but they can share the world's laws...]
The World-Crossing Gate provided an explanation, and Xu Xiao understood what was going on.
"I understand. So that means that after synchronization, the world flow, time, space, and other basic rules of the two worlds will be the same. I can even implement the rules that can be cultivated in the Great Tang World in the Anaconda World, right?"
"Or perhaps, I could even gather the Spiritual Energy of several worlds into one world, transforming it into a world with high Spiritual Power."
Xu Xiao instantly realized just how incredible this ability was.
[Yes, this allows the host to easily manage the conquered universes and timelines, and also allows the sparks of different civilizations to collide and ignite new brilliance.]
"Alright, then proceed with the synchronization. While you're at it, move all the Spirit Vein of this world to the Great Tang Twin Dragons World."
Xu Xiao issued the order.
Above the Heavens World-Crossing Gate, two orbs of light representing the World Authority stood side by side and began to synchronize.
The two worlds in reality have also undergone tremendous changes.
