Chapter 1674: Chapter 652: Chaotic Memories, Humanity’s Ancestors
Their consciousness arrived at an unknown place.
At this moment, the two of them were a bit bewildered, not knowing what the situation was.
After touching Ren Zhong’s sea of consciousness, everything was beyond their control.
Their own consciousness was pulled into this void, much like a small skiff being drawn into a whirlpool.
The Spirit Demon Race had never encountered this situation before.
In the past, the interference methods of the Spirit Demon Race required only the release of interference information streams; the brain structures of those who came into contact with this information stream would irreversibly resonate on their own. Subsequently, many previously unknown consciousnesses and cognitions would be spread out, endogenously infused into people’s hearts, and change a person’s mind.
The Spirit Demon Race did not need to directly intersect with the inner world of the target.
Even when Li Yang used his abilities on Ren Zhong before, he did not touch Ren Zhong’s inner world.
But now the situation has changed, and the data channel in Ren Zhong’s mind can receive Sun Ai’s data, and it also presents strong permeability to human consciousness. When the consciousness information stream of the demons touched his brain, it was like a small ship hitting a whirlpool in a river and being drawn in.
Even Ren Zhong himself was unaware of this.
After Tai Hong and the innocent girl experienced initial chaos and confusion, they finally touched the minds of their companions, feeling a bit more at ease.
However, the two of them still did not understand the situation at hand and could only wander aimlessly through this chaotic void, holding each other’s hands.
No one knew how much time had passed or how far they had flown when they finally sensed orderly information amidst the chaotic and disorganized information and accelerated towards the direction from which this orderly information emanated.
Suddenly, one after the other, the two of them bumped into something.
They had actually encountered an obstruction.
Tai Hong conveyed a segment of his thoughts to the innocent girl.
He believed they had encountered a mental protective mechanism.
In the Mechanical Empire, there are mental protectors targeting high-ranking managers, capable of constructing a stable quantum spiral on the surface of a person’s subconsciousness, effectively blocking the infiltration of the Spirit Demon Race.
Yet, it was unexpected that even a mere Marquis like Ren Zhong would receive such a treatment.
But the innocent girl disagreed; she countered by asking whether the Mechanical Empire could indeed create mental protectors capable of blocking the targeted infiltration of two divine level demons simultaneously?
They should realize that their attack was not the usual widespread covering strike, but a meticulously prepared and highly focused penetration offensive targeting only Ren Zhong. The intensity was high, and the energy was extremely focused, with the two of them even taking personal risks to approach closely.
If even this could be stopped, the Spirit Demon Race would no longer pride themselves on being one of the four major human branches; surrendering then and there would be the sensible thing to do.
Having read the innocent girl’s analysis, Tai Hong also thought it made a lot of sense.
So, what exactly was this barrier? What exactly was hidden inside?
Afterward, Tai Hong and the innocent girl started attempting repeatedly to forcibly break through this invisible wall.
After tens of thousands of consecutive failures, they were still unable to break through the wall, but there was a change nonetheless.
Ground suddenly appeared beneath their feet.
The fog in front gradually dispersed.
A city built with stones appeared in the distance.
Within that city, people came and went, bustling with activity.
Tai Hong and the innocent girl were bewildered.
What is this situation?
Why is there a city within one’s heart, and why are so many people inside?
No one had heard of any signs of split personality associated with Red Blade Marquis Ren Zhong!
"How do we get in?" Tai Hong asked the innocent girl, who clearly had a better idea, "Continue to crash into it?"
Innocent girl: "Try a different approach."
"What?"
The two of them changed their form of existence, no longer in the shape of white fog masses, but instead concentrated into complete human forms.
Tai Hong transformed into a tall, slim man dressed in a black leisure outfit, while the innocent girl transformed into a beautiful woman in a white trench coat, no different in form from the people inside the city.
Then, miraculously, the two of them effortlessly passed through the invisible wall in front without any obstruction.
Subsequently, the two of them swiftly walked towards the open city gate.
There were no guards at the gate, and the two passed through easily.
But the moment they both crossed the middle line of the gate, the people walking down the street inside seemed to suddenly sense their presence, all turning around, frowning, focusing their gaze on both of them.
Although there were only a few hundred people on the street, Tai Hong and the innocent girl instinctively felt that numerous other gazes in the city pierced through walls and half of the city, locking onto them.
Though a bit unbelievable, Tai Hong instinctively knew that it was ten thousand gazes.
The innocent girl’s perception was the same.
The two divine level demons, powerful in the outside world, suddenly felt a bit anxious.
Nervously, they looked at the people on the street.
The expressions on these people’s faces were not vacant but rather lively and vivid, some frowning deeply, others puzzled.
"Um... Hello everyone!" Tai Hong waved his hand awkwardly.
At this moment, Tai Hong suddenly froze, feeling as if a tremendous amount of memories were being unstoppable poured into his head.
The city in front of his eyes vanished instantly, and his perspective pulled away, floating into the cosmos.
He then saw a star orbited by eight planets.
His gaze fell on the third blue planet.
"Is this... Is this... the Origin Star?"
Tai Hong murmured to himself.
Then, time suddenly sped up, and a spot appeared on the surface of the blue planet.
Wanting to take a closer look, as soon as this thought arose, he found his perspective zooming in quickly.
He discovered it was a village full of primitive and rustic charm.
Dozens of primitive people, still not entirely free from body hair, walked around unclothed, unabashedly displaying sexual characteristics, were each busy at work.
Some were using stone knives to peel animal hides, others hanging animal flesh and blood on branches to be placed in where the wind could blow, and some were chewing various wild plants.
"Is this the process of human origin? Are these the ancestors of humanity?"
Tai Hong again distanced his view, examining the distant starry sky, where the Ancient Disk Galaxy, so familiar to him, lay.
"Why would an Imperial human’s consciousness contain these images? Why do these scenes seem so real?"
As Tai Hong pondered, time accelerated once more before his eyes.
The spot where the primitive village lay expanded rapidly, only to be destroyed in a flood.
The survivors fled, each heading to different directions, and then rebuilt villages again.
Disasters happened again and again, humans surviving each time, growing in number and village size expanding.
Humans learned to cultivate crops and domesticate animals. Villages began erecting fences to keep out wild beasts.
Some even started attempting to build sturdier stone houses using stones.
