Chapter 5: Third Order! The Power of Concepts (3.5K + Second Update)
The goddess opened her mouth and inhaled again.
Golden light particles appeared from Bai Cangshu's body, and the next moment, they vanished into the goddess's mouth.
"You have lost 2 a-rank special point."
Subsequently, the goddess's enormous right hand made no discernible movement, but Bai Cangshu felt a tremendous force surge forth, and his body seemed to lose its weight.
In an instant, he soared towards the sky.
Pfft!
He seemed to have broken through something; the white jade plaza and the clouds quickly disappeared, and endless darkness enveloped him.
His breathing stopped, he could not feel any air, and the enormous pressure difference inside and outside his body seemed to squeeze out all his internal organs.
However, Bai Cangshu's powerful physique quickly adjusted, his biological Magnetism Rotation resumed, and the power of Magnetism Rotation completely isolated him from that pressure difference.
The next moment, he raised his head, and an endless, pitch-black illusory space seemed to envelop him. He focused his gaze, and at the end of the boundless void, something seemed to exist.
But with the naked eye alone, he couldn't see it clearly at all.
The invisible Transcendent Helix power quickly activated, and Bai Cangshu's long black hair rapidly began to turn white, that helical force growing stronger and stronger.
He stared intently into the distance.
Precisely because there was no information around Bai Cangshu in this void, Bai Cangshu found that his Transcendent Helix operated with unprecedented clarity and focus.
He felt that when the helical force reached its limit, a silver-white light appeared at the end of the void.
Bai Cangshu's eyes widened, and then he clearly saw countless symbols flashing and changing within that silver-white light.
He stared intently as the silver-white light grew larger and clearer in his pupils.
Buzz~
Within the pitch-black void, distorted ripples emanated from behind Bai Cangshu's head, like an invisible, enormous vortex, beginning to churn behind him.
Bai Cangshu's head tilted slightly backward, as if a stream of information had directly impacted his brain.
Massive amounts of information began to appear and explode in his mind, then were expelled from his mind by that helical force.
His pupils trembled constantly, feeling his cerebral cortex, stimulated by Magnetism Rotation, rapidly differentiating.
Beneath his skull, there was actually a real itching sensation, even though there should be no tactile nerves in such a place, yet he genuinely began to feel that special "sense"!
That was not the itching of the brain, but information, but wisdom!
An invisible, illusory existence began to produce substantial effects.
Pfft!
From Bai Cangshu's nostrils, dark, slightly purplish blood burst forth, beginning to drip, but this level of injury was nothing to him.
He was merely experiencing that peculiar sensation.
His entire Mental state was exceptionally active; he almost instantly discerned that the information stream consisted entirely of repetitive, cramped, useless information.
It was probably some kind of high-level textual symbols that he couldn't understand, roughly combined together.
Blood also began to flow from the corners of Bai Cangshu's eyes, and his long hair showed signs of falling out, but he felt his brain was in excellent condition, starting to heat up.
In his eyes, the countless garbled high-level symbols began to reassemble and attempt to combine.
Buzz!
A strong suction appeared, and the next moment, Bai Cangshu felt the world turn upside down, black and white changing. With just a single blink of his eyes, he was back in the white jade plaza.
Bai Cangshu remained motionless, the remaining high-level symbols becoming fewer and fewer, and their combination forms increasingly fixed.
The goddess's ruby-like eyes observed the tendril-like helical force extending around the Reincarnator's head, and her gaze lowered slightly.
The white jade space seemed to suddenly contract.
Pfft!
Bai Cangshu fell out of that state, his hot brain causing his thoughts to disappear for a moment before returning to normal.
"Talent: Transcendent Helix (Third Order) (SSS-) — A creation of miracles, a helix beyond the extreme, an observer of all phenomena, an unstable abnormality."
"Effect (Three Rotations): Upon activating Transcendent Helix, the brain will forcibly remove all genetic restrictions, information will materialize, gaining the ability to interfere with information, identify, replicate, and even recombine partial information; Warning, this ability will significantly increase brain load, potentially causing physical disintegration, brain death, brain necrosis, brain damage, and other negative effects depending on physique."
"Ugh~"
After Bai Cangshu's brain recovered, there was still a lingering feeling of nausea, a nausea from brain dizziness superimposed with various taste information.
It was as if that brief period of third-order helix had caused his various senses and neural functions to become chaotic and necrotic once.
Bai Cangshu's face twitched a few times as if in a spasm, but ultimately, a smile appeared.
"You have touched the concept of "Void"."
Void…
The ultimate combination of those many high-level symbols was the concept of "Void."
It had no practical function, and no effect whatsoever.
But it was this "Void" that contained the mystery of transforming numerous high-level power information into useless waste.
Moreover, "Concept"…
Bai Cangshu realized that he had touched a higher dimension of power.
Previously, above the "Energy" level, Bai Cangshu only knew of "Authority," where high-level Reincarnators all wielded authority in a certain domain.
In layman's terms, it was the priority of power in a certain domain, the degree of control over similar powers.
For example, if a Reincarnator with fire immunity encountered a Reincarnator with fire attack ignoring resistance, their abilities would clash, raising the question of whose ability would take effect.
Typically, the Space would use the description "priority" to explain this.
But actual combat is not a game; the essence of "priority" is a mastery of the origin of power.
Whoever is closer to the essence of that power possesses higher "priority."
According to some theories, all abilities are factors that descend from various The Ladder; the more a Reincarnator can touch higher-level factors, the more control they gain over other abilities on the same The Ladder.
This theory can be extended to various ability systems.
And to be able to climb from a factor to The Ladder and reach the pinnacle of that ability is to stand at the apex of "Authority."
In most contexts, the ultimate power wielded by "gods" in various worldviews lies here.
The God of Wind completely controls the power of "Wind," and the God of Fire presides over the power of fire.
Mortals cannot defeat gods in their domain; they can only seek other methods.
This is "Authority."
And the higher Heart Light Soul Movement is considered the power of "Human," a unique radiance belonging to this extremely unstable short-lived species.
At this moment, Bai Cangshu touched another level of power — "Concept"!
That was power directly collapsed and combined from the "information" level; in Bai Cangshu's view, it was far closer to the essence of "information" than authority or energy.
"Goddess, what kind of power is "Concept"?"
The goddess did not speak. She was not as talkative as Knight Girl; she merely displayed a new prompt in front of Bai Cangshu.
"Do you want to spend 1 a-rank special point to upgrade Reincarnator authority?"
Bai Cangshu exhaled, expressionlessly "spending" again. He had intended to upgrade his Reincarnator authority anyway, preparing for the upcoming new Title Competition.
To wear and use certain titles, Title-level Reincarnator authority is essential.
The goddess opened her mouth and inhaled, and Bai Cangshu's remaining 1 a-rank special point also disappeared.
Now, in his possession, high-level special anomaly point were only one S-level singularity, and one B-level and below singularity each.
"You have lost 1 a-rank special point."
"Reincarnator authority upgraded. Current: Title-level Reincarnator - Evil Savior."
"Space stay time extended by an additional 8 hours."
"From now on, you will know the mission deployment time seven days in advance."
"From now on, you will be qualified to compete for any title through the Space Title Challenge (under minimum conditions)."
"From now on, you will be able to exempt yourself from the anchoring and tracking abilities of authorities 3-star and below. This ability is only effective in space."
"The so-called "Concept" is naturally the information level, a collection of various authorities, the initial conversion of "information" into actual power."
"Isn't the "power" you want to touch precisely this?"
The goddess's voice drifted, and Bai Cangshu simultaneously gained a complete and clear understanding of the true power structure of the Infinite Dimensional Space.
Through the essence of the observer, various power forms in all worlds are observed and collapsed into various concepts, from which a series of authorities are born, further refined into various energies and abilities.
And this top-down evolutionary process, when pursued in reverse by Reincarnators, is The Ladder.
Reincarnators, by mastering various abilities, thereby controlling energy, further pursuing authority, and ultimately touching concepts—this process is the process of climbing The Ladder!
Only one power remains outside this system—Heart Light Soul Movement!
"Indeed, the power of "Heart" is special…"
The harder something is to obtain, the more one desires it. Bai Cangshu, now possessing the Magnetism Rotation power system, would only crave the power of "Heart" even more!
Magnetism Rotation, in addition to its inherent Magnetism Rotation intensity, is driven by the user's Mental purity, and… "Heart"!
Surging hatred, fanatical fighting spirit, and… the love that can push Magnetism Rotation beyond its limits at all costs!
—
Infinite Dimensional Space, West District. This was a space with an atmosphere completely different from the East District.
Everywhere were tall, muscular, and voluptuous avatars, and a small number of people had created avatars mimicking characters from Japanese anime, but due to differences in aesthetics, the avatars' temperaments always varied slightly.
The reinforcement tendencies of Reincarnators here also differed slightly.
Cao Qi, wearing flip-flops, did not attract the attention of others. Soon, he arrived at a stall, stall number [A-01].
It was a fair-skinned woman with a high nose bridge and blue-gray pupils, the ends of her chestnut-colored long hair turning into a highly saturated, vibrant hue.
The woman looked up, saw the newcomer, and offered a smile tinged with apology.
"You still came. It seems I've caused you trouble~"
Cao Qi looked at the woman and suddenly sighed.
"Although the traces of you activating Daikokuten's Heart Light Soul Movement were not obvious, that guy Aizen probably anticipated you would act and deliberately showed himself."
The woman nodded, completely lacking the domineering aura of someone who could suppress the entire West District. Instead, she was like a girl who had made a mistake, receiving criticism from an elder.
Seeing Flowering Turmoil's demeanor, Cao Qi had vaguely confirmed the face of the card he had drawn.
Before the three of them dispersed the cards, they each kept one. These were the three most special cards, not displaying their faces, and containing trajectories that even the King of Destiny could not determine.
"Whether he appears or not, the outcome will not change."
"A beast that chases power, once it has tasted Heart Light Soul Movement, is destined to evolve towards "Humanity.""
"The arrogant Soul King thought he stood in the heavens, looking down upon his creations, but even the creator can be devoured by the "World Serpent" Jormungandr…"
"I trust that beast named Tao Pai Pai more than him."
The smile in the woman's eyes was clear and peaceful. Precisely because she believed in the special nature of "Humanity," she was not fixated on the option of killing Tao Pai Pai.
On the contrary, she was strengthening Tao Pai Pai, she was luring Tao Pai Pai, she was, in this way… controlling Tao Pai Pai!
The expression on Cao Qi's face gradually turned into a smile.
The other party's growth had far exceeded his expectations, whether in power, wisdom, or temperament.
Like a flawless Reincarnator, in Cao Qi's eyes, she completely surpassed the other Supreme Experts.
Even his old friend An Zhiyuan was probably no match for this woman anymore.
He suddenly laughed heartily, waving goodbye.
"In that case, I am at ease."
Flowering Turmoil lowered her head, a hint of sadness in her eyes.
