The Celestial Star Alliance was located in the fifth last paragraph, and it was the Iteration just before the three Universal Civilizations. The fourth last section was the new Iteration after the Great Reboot, and the three Universal Civilizations were the final civilizations developed by the new Iteration. During that period, there was no such thing as the World Tree. The three Universal Civilizations slowly multiplied, and they finally discovered the Sanctum and learned all the information about Iteration.
Because the previous Celestial Star Alliance’s plan was very desirable, the three Universal Civilizations inherited it and improved it, forming the ‘Information Form stripping plan’.
However, the three Universal Civilizations at that time knew very well that with their accumulation, they did not have the absolute confidence to survive the Great Reboot and did not want to risk it all. Therefore, the true goal of this plan was not to completely overcome the Great Reboot but to buy more time for themselves. They wanted to strip away the Information Form state of the entire universe and try to imitate the operation of the Celestial Star Alliance. They wanted to exist in the secondary dimensions and the dark side of the universe in the New Iteration era and continuously reboot.
However, the difference was that the three Universal Civilizations followed the mindset of the Celestial Star Alliance and made almost perfect improvements. Thus, they successfully peeled out the ‘Information Form state’ of the entire Iteration and formed a closed dark side universe in the next Iteration. It existed based on the Information Form state and was like a ‘virtual’ world, ‘developing side by side’ at a faster time flow. It was like a parallel line, difficult to intersect with the ‘real’ Iteration’s main universe and difficult to interfere with each other.
After Han Xiao found out about the contents of the message board, he sorted out the time relationship. If the Celestial Star Alliance was the first iteration, then the three Universal Civilizations would be the final civilizations of the second iteration. They would activate the information form stripping plan and turn into the dark side universe of the third iteration, and the third iteration would be the true current iteration.
It was also at this point that Han Xiao realized that the Sanctum would not leave any information form empty shells for the current Iteration, and there was no such thing as a ‘tombstone’. The three Universal Civilizations and the World Tree Civilization that he saw in the Sanctum were actually the second iteration remains. There was no content inside because they had been ‘stripped’ and became the dark side universe of the third Iteration.
However, the cycle of the dark side universe was not the same as the Celestial Star Alliance. Instead, it formed a ‘small reboot’ pattern. The three Universal Civilizations of the Second Iteration used the characteristics of the Sanctum to add new patterns every time the universe was rebooted, allowing the dark side universe to be included in the influence of the Sanctum.
What was different from the ‘Great Reboot’ was that every ‘small reboot’ in the dark universe did not return to zero but was formed based on a fixed Information Form state template, which meant that there would definitely be organizations like the three Universal Civilizations. Before the three Universal Civilizations came into contact with the Sanctum, their development trajectories were the same. Han Xiao called this situation ‘dark side Iteration’.
Therefore, every time the dark side universe went through a small reboot, there would be an improved version of the dark side Iteration. It was just that there was a chance for ‘Information Form Mutation’ to occur. The three Universal Civilizations used this method to buy themselves more time, and they obtained more opportunities to test their luck.
However, this plan could not bring about eternity. After some calculations, there was an upper limit to the information form stripping plan. Their dark side universe would only exist in the third iteration at most. If they were to go through the Great Reboot and enter the fourth iteration, then their dark side universe would disappear… unless they could enter the real iteration main universe from the dark side universe and turn from ‘virtual’ to ‘real’.
Therefore, after the three Universal Civilizations successfully entered the dark side universe, their goal was to break the seal of the dark side universe and return to the real main universe of the third Iteration.
The third last to last messages on the Sanctum’s message board represented the three dark side Iterations of the dark side universe. Currently, Han Xiao was in the fourth dark side Iteration, and these four dark side Iterations had all happened during the third Iteration.
Since the Sanctum was not affected by the Iterations, the three Universal Civilizations used the message board of the Sanctum to record the experience of each trial and error. They made ‘themselves’ of the next dark side Iteration improve the path according to the previous experience, as well as create some key devices to improve the situation of the next dark side Iteration. This was the origin of the World Tree.
The three Universal Civilizations had added an Information Form Materialization device when they were in the second dark side Iteration (second last message), but in the third dark side Iteration, an information form mutation occurred. From a mechanical device, it turned into the World Tree with life force and went berserk… This was what Han Xiao experienced when he was a player in his previous life.
In the end, the three Universal Civilizations of the third dark side Iteration still opened the Sanctum and understood everything. Thus, they left behind the control terminal of the Information Form Materialization device. In the current fourth dark side Iteration, the Information Form mutation occurred and inherited the nature of restraint. But there was a change in its manifestation which became the World Tree’s natural enemy, which was also the Pivotal Snake.
On the other hand, in the second dark side Iteration, the three Universal Civilizations had used the Information Form Materialization device that had yet to mutate and failed in the end. They had discovered that the reason was that there was a bridge that lacked the ‘True State’. Han Xiao had also figured out the concept of the ‘True State’, which was actually the Information Form carrier that existed in the true universe.
In other words, the dark side universe had to form an Information Form connection with the true universe. Only by being able to interfere with each other would the Information Form Materialization device work. Therefore, the three Universal Civilizations of the second dark side Iteration launched a plan, trying to change the underlying laws of the next dark side Iteration, causing the two ‘parallel lines’ of the dark side universe and the true universe to deviate and finally intersect.
In the end, when the third dark side Iteration arrived, the underlying laws of the dark side universe changed, and they successfully projected themselves into ‘reality’. They successfully obtained a part of the Information Form carrier of the true universe, which was the existence of ‘players’. Through ‘log in’, these individuals who lived in the true universe turned their ‘True State’ into ‘information form state’ and were pulled into the dark side universe to form the Information Form interface. This was everything that Han Xiao and countless players had experienced in his previous life.
However, the World Tree went berserk in the third dark side Iteration. After the World Tree War in his previous life, the three Universal Civilizations obtained the Sanctum pathway from the Holy Accord Organization and learned everything. They inherited the heritage of countless civilizations, and their technology improved by leaps and bounds. At a level that the players could not come into contact with, the three Universal Civilizations came up with a new plan. They gathered the power of civilizations and built the ‘control terminal’ of the World Tree. At the same time, they lowered the cost of the World Tree going berserk in the fourth dark side Iteration. Other than that, due to the players’ version updates, the three Universal Civilizations of the third dark side Iteration felt that the True State’ bridge was not stable enoug
h, so they decided to spend a lot of resources strengthening the ‘True State’ connection with the next dark side Iteration.
Because the dark side universe and the true universe had already formed a preliminary Information Form interference, the three Universal Civilizations decided to build a stable interference bridge instead of intermittent bridge-like logins. The only targets they could choose were these individual Information Form records that had already been logged into the dark side universe, so they randomly selected a target to enter the dark side universe completely, forming a stable connection.
As long as this idea was correct, the dark side universe would be able to reverse-transform the ‘Information Form state’ to the ‘True State’ through this interference bridge, break free from the seal, and return to the true universe… In a more understandable way, it would be like installing a carrier bag for the so-called ‘reality’, which contained the entire dark side universe and the entire Galaxy World.
This was the truth that Han Xiao had learned from the Sanctum, and what happened after that was not recorded on the message board.
After knowing all of this, he had a rough guess about what happened after that. He suspected that the reason why he had ‘transmigrated’ was actually because he had been randomly selected as the ‘stable interference bridge’ that strengthened the Information Form entanglement between the dark side universe and the true universe.
His own Information Form state had been completely captured, and he had come to this dark universe from the ‘reality’. Therefore, his ‘real’ self had disappeared, and he no longer had any information about himself. He had never seen his other self, who should be a ‘player’, all these years. Han Xiao suspected that this was the reason.
As for the dark side universe of the fourth dark side Iteration, it caused the time of the true universe to regress by ten years. Han Xiao did not know the reason, but he guessed that it was because the third dark side Iteration had more Information Form interference with the true universe when it was ‘capturing’ him, which affected the other party’s time. However, he did not know if this was a reversal of time across the entire universe or only across a small area. However, from another point of view, this was also proof that the dark side universe used the ‘True State’ to create Information Form entanglements that could already cause a substantial change to the true universe.
Now, Han Xiao had roughly pieced together all the reasons from the Sanctum records and his own guesses. In his opinion, this series of guesses was more than seventy percent reliable.
Han Xiao hid part of his speculations and explained the secret.
After hearing all of this, only shock and disbelief could be seen on the faces of Marbruce, Louis, and the Pope. They looked at Han Xiao with their mouths slightly open, completely dumbfounded.
“This, this…”
The Pope was dumbfounded.
Although they were the rulers of the three Universal Civilizations and had seen countless storms, the information that Han Xiao had just given them had already exceeded their acceptance range. After a long time, Marbruce turned to Louis and said with hesitation,
“Um… did you understand?”
“I didn’t either…” Marbruce replied blankly.
Chapter 1451: Speculation and Conjecture |
The three of them took a while to digest the information that Han Xiao had given them.
Louis hesitated.
“Black Star, are you trying to trick us…”
“Unfortunately, not this time.” Han Xiao shrugged.
Marbruce had a strange expression on his face. “In other words, we are all people who died and reincarnated a few times. This is equivalent to being trapped in a sealed secondary dimension. Our final goal is to break through this secondary dimension and return to the main universe?” “Hmm, although the difference is quite big you can understand it that way.” Han Xiao blinked.
“It means that everything our civilization has experienced from the beginning is a predestined development trajectory. It has already happened a few times, and it was ‘personally’ built by us?”
“Something like that.” Han Xiao nodded.
“Let me recover…”
The Pope pressed his forehead and felt his blood pressure rising.
All of a sudden, the three of them felt as though the values that they had formed in their lives had been shattered. In the face of such a situation, they realized that all the political and military problems that they usually considered became insignificant.
“So, we’re that powerful…”
Marbruce was still in shock.
Han Xiao ruthlessly interrupted his imagination. “It’s not that you guys are strong, but the final three Universal Civilizations are. Compared to the ‘you’ of the past, you guys are like three little brothers. Don’t flatter the three Universal Civilizations of now. Without me, you guys would still not have known anything.”
The three of them felt a little hurt.
Although this is the truth, can’t you let us indulge a little?
However, no matter what, the three of them still felt like they had been blessed by their ancestors after learning about these secrets.
“Black Star, you really gave us a scare…” Marbruce smiled bitterly.” My mind is in a mess right now. I don’t even know what to do.
Han Xiao raised his brows and joked, “Didn’t you say you’ve seen all kinds of storms? Have you seen this before?”
“Ahem, I think we should talk about how to break the seal of the dark side universe and return to the true universe…”
The Pope’s face darkened, and he quickly changed the topic, not wanting to admit that he was too careless.
However, Han Xiao did not give a direct answer. Instead, he slowly said,
“I know you guys still have some doubts in your hearts, thinking that I made this up. When you guys enter the Sanctum and confirm that the information I’m talking about is correct, we’ll talk about what to do next… By the way, let me remind you guys, the Sanctum requires authorization to access the Iteration messages. You guys will only know the basic information when you enter the Sanctum for the first time, which is information like Iteration and Great Reboot. As for information like dark side Iteration and continuous reboot, you guys won’t be able to see it for the time being. I only learned about these things after completely unlocking the authorization.” “Oh, so it was like that…”
The three of them had not witnessed the functions of the Sanctum with their own eyes, so they could only listen to Han Xiao’s explanation. However, they believed most of it, because there was no need for Black Star to lie to them about something that could be so easily verified.
However, Marbruce and the other two felt an itch in their hearts. This feeling was like watching a suspense movie. They had only seen the beginning, but Black Star knew all the details and did not tell them who the killer was. This made them very curious. However, the three of them did have some concerns, and they did not dare completely believe what Han Xiao said. They would only be at ease if they entered the Sanctum to take a look.
“I will send you the method to enter the Sanctum in a while. Also, I will give you three more sets of Sanctum keys. You can enter by yourselves, lest you say that I did something.”
Han Xiao said casually.
He was the only one who could quickly create the Sanctum Keys. Even the three Universal Civilizations, which had plenty of resources, needed time to collect materials. Therefore, without his help, the three Universal Civilizations could not enter the Sanctum frequently. This was also the reason why he had the confidence to control the Sanctum and did not mind letting the three Universal Civilizations enter the Sanctum.
“That is the best.”
The three of them hurriedly nodded like obedient children.
“Alright, then you guys digest the truth of the universe and Iterations. I won’t disturb you guys any longer. I’ll send you the materials later.”
Han Xiao nodded and hung up.
The remote projection disappeared, and the three of them looked at each other with different expressions.
“I didn’t expect Black Star to bring such intelligence… If what he said is true, then our future plans will have to be reorganized.”
“That’s right. If the situation is true, then there’s no point in us developing peacefully here. We have to break through fate and fulfill the wishes of our past lives, entering the so-called true universe.”
“Let’s not talk about this for now. Let’s start from the beginning…”
The three of them gathered their heads together and started discussing.
Supers Holy Land, Leader’s Office.
Han Xiao’s eyes flashed, and he returned to his room. Complicated emotions appeared in his eyes.
He had pretended to be confident and calm in front of the three Universal Civilizations. In fact, when he found out about the truth from the Sanctum, he was also shocked, but it also solved many of his doubts.
In fact, Han Xiao still had many of his own secrets that he had not told the heads of the three Universal Civilizations just now. For example, the existence of the interface meant that there were three possibilities.
The first was that the interface was a special product formed when the true state of the true universe was transformed into the Information Form state of the dark side universe. It was like when a high-dimensional object descended into a low dimension, it had a special advantage. It was like how a piece of paper hid no secrets to humans, providing information that low-dimensional objects could not contain. The second possibility was that it was the product of Information Form mutation.
The third guess was that the three Universal Civilizations of the second dark side Iteration had projected the ‘information cluster’ of the dark side universe into the true universe through ‘login’, and the interface was the necessary medium to complete this step. It could be considered a special ‘retractor’ or ‘recorder’. Therefore, it might have been specially created by the three Universal Civilizations to ensure that the True State would remain in the dark side universe for a long time.
