Translator: CinderTL

When the Lord of the Mist addressed him as "Brother Qi," Feng Qi's eyes widened.

He suddenly realized that Lin Ran might have truly succeeded.

The seeds planted in the Reality Line had finally blossod 1,500 years later.

The Right Protector has arrived. We can be even more arrogant in the Future Dream Realm now.

Excited, he stared at the face ford from mist and instinctively asked, "Lin Ran?"

"Yes... it's ."

"Did you really succeed in reversing the parasitic possession?"

"No... not... entirely... My consciousness... isn't strong enough... It's reclaiming... control of my body." The voice responded in broken fragnts.

Hearing this, Feng Qi's heart sank.

"Brother Qi, first tell ... how did you know I would be possessed by the Consciousness?"

Lin Ran's question left Feng Qi with no reason to hide the truth. He replied imdiately, "I possess the ability to traverse tilines. When I told you about the possession, I had already visited the future 1,500 years from now. That's why I hoped you could develop an art magic to counter the parasitic possession, to help you try to regain control of your body, or even harness its power."

"I understand... its consciousness is now counter-devouring ... my ti is running out."

"Is there anything you want to tell ?" Feng Qi asked urgently.

"If you can go back 1,500 years... tell then... the research on the Anti-Parasitic Art must be combined with a cultivation technique that can resist consciousness erosion... otherwise, while I devour it, my consciousness will be constantly eroded... making it impossible to strengthen myself. But with a cultivation technique to resist consciousness erosion, I'm certain I can succeed."

"Alright, I'll definitely pass on the ssage!"

Realizing Lin Ran had failed to counter-devour the Lord of the Mist, Feng Qi felt imnse regret.

But during his 1,500-year consciousness infiltration, Lin Ran had clearly discovered a thod to deal with the Lord of the Mist.

Now, Feng Qi's task was to return to the Real World and relay Lin Ran's instructions to him.

If successful, in the next tiline, Lin Ran would successfully devour the Lord of the Mist and gain his power.

[What a pity. But that Lin Ran is quite impressive, almost pulling it off. Fortunately, we still have chances to try again. May he rest in peace.]

As the Narrator's voice faded, the mist-ford face shattered with a thunderous crash, only to coalesce again.

By this point, Lin Ran's Consciousness had clearly been devoured, and the Lord of the Mist had regained control of the body.

It stared intently at Feng Qi and spoke:

"If you hadn't appeared, I wouldn't have realized that Lin Ran's Consciousness hadn't been completely extinguished. It had been parasitizing my own Consciousness. No wonder I'd noticed the growth rate of my Consciousness slowing down from ti to ti—he was devouring my essence."

"Your arrival has helped eliminate a hidden threat."

Hearing this, Feng Qi replied calmly, "Don't thank . In the future tiline, you'll be a dead fish. Lin Ran will inherit everything you have."

After a slight pause, he continued, "If the day cos when I can freely manipulate tilines, I'll co for you and finish you off."

Gazing at the enraged Lord of the Mist, Feng Qi insolently raised his middle finger and grinned. "After spending so long in Human Civilization, you understand this gesture, right?"

This ti, the Lord of the Mist didn't respond. A palm ford of swirling mist slamd down toward him.

Seeing this, Feng Qi imdiately clenched his fist and charged forward.

Giving up the struggle was out of the question.

Boom!

The gray-white mist slamd against his body, and the negative energy-filled fog instantly knocked him to the ground.

Then, a palm-shaped pit appeared in the ground, and Feng Qi's bones shattered under the force of the blow. He was dead.

As darkness enveloped his vision, a hint of regret lingered in Feng Qi's heart.

Yet, there was also a sense of satisfaction.

Lin Ran's talent was truly outstanding; he had almost succeeded.

Lost in thought, his consciousness gradually faded...

When he opened his eyes, he found himself lying on the sofa, an empty glass bottle on the table in front of him.

Realizing he had returned to reality, he stood up, stretched, and sat down at his desk.

The gains from this Dream Realm journey far surpassed those of the previous ones.

Opening his notebook, he used psychokinesis to grasp a pen and began writing down his experiences and discoveries from the Dream Realm.

First, the improvent in his strength.

This ti, he had gained two innate abilities in the Dream Realm. The first was Bone Vein, which allowed him to restructure his bones into any object, making it a highly practical ability for close-quarters combat.

Next was Swiftness, an ability that was sowhat lackluster but still better than nothing.

Simultaneously, after his bloodline advancent, his overall strength increased significantly, including a severalfold boost to his combat power in his blood origin state.

This was also the first ti he had fought a domain creature after his bloodline advancent. This journey through the Dream Realm had given him a clearer understanding of his own strength.

After recording his strength improvents, he used psychokinesis to turn the page and began recording the intelligence he had gathered.

Sacrifice Line Intelligence 1: I gained a basic understanding of the internal structure of the Technology Research Institute and why Mu Qing had massacred domain combat teams. These slaughtered teams were clearly loyal to Domain Forces.

Note: The Domain Force behind the Technology Research Institute controls life and death through the "death mark." The thod to break it has been recorded.

Sacrifice Line Intelligence 2: The Scarlet Research Institute proved the feasibility of the Brain in a Vat Project. As long as the brain is preserved, all mory information from the Sacrifice Line can be read.

Note: Reading mories carries significant risks. Overlapping mories require ti to process, and negative emotions accumulate and persist.

Sacrifice Line Intelligence 3: All the black technology research projects behind the Technology Research Institute are linked to a scientist nad Mo, who is also the core figure in the Spirit Energy Nanoworm Project.

Note: In future tilines, try to learn more about this person. Perhaps he holds the key to controlling little black. (P.S.: Little black's loss of control might be related to him.)

Dream Realm Intelligence 1: Information provided by the Scarlet Research Institute proves that the Flesh and Blood Sacrifice cultivation technique can be deciphered, but it requires significant technological advancent.

Note: In each subsequent tiline, Old Wang must attempt to decipher the Flesh and Blood Sacrifice based on his progress in the previous tiline.

Dream Realm Intelligence 2: Exploration of the Mist Zone and contact with the Lord of the Mist confird the viability of the Consciousness Counter-Devouring thod planted earlier.

Note: Convey the crucial information provided by future Lin Ran and attempt to continue the Consciousness Counter-Devouring plan. Success will add one more companion in the future.

Dream Realm Intelligence 3: The super virtual ga is deeply intertwined with the Future Research Institute, a mysterious organization that even the Technology Research Institute has not actively confronted.

Note: Consider investigating the Future Research Institute as a potential path in future tilines.

As he wrote, ti flew by.

Feng Qi ticulously recorded the details and findings from his journey into the Dream Realm in his notebook.

Organizing the information was crucial for making progress.

After putting down his pen, he closed the notebook.

The lingering effects of his mory overlap were slowly fading, but so remnants remained, leaving him feeling slightly unfamiliar with his own dormitory.

He stood up and walked to the refrigerator, grabbing a can of soda. He popped it open and took a long, refreshing gulp.

The icy liquid slid down his throat, clearing his mind.

Just then, his phone rang. He glanced at the screen and saw it was Lin Ran calling.

"Brother Qi, ti to eat!"

"Coming right now," Feng Qi replied.

After hanging up, he put the soda back in the fridge and left his dorm.

Walking along the tree-lined path leading to the Academy Cafeteria, he recalled the previous Sacrifice Line, which had begun with Lin Ran's call asking why he wasn't at dinner.

The mories of that Sacrifice Line made him realize just how much suffering each version of himself in the Future Lines would endure.

He knew that everything his counterparts in the Sacrifice Lines had done was an extension of his own thoughts.

Yet he still felt a pang of heartache for their sacrifices.

[Only those who had experienced such pain could truly understand how agonizing it was.]

[Just as the Feng Qi on this Sacrifice Line endured unimaginable suffering, death beca a release, while life itself was hell.]

[So what you need to do is carry their dreams, then fulfill them. Don't let the sacrifices of the Feng Qi on the Sacrifice Line be in vain.]

"Mm," Feng Qi nodded lightly.

After exchanging nods with students he passed along the way, he arrived at the Academy Cafeteria.

It was dinnerti, and the cafeteria was packed with students.

After grabbing a tray, Feng Qi stopped overthinking and began selecting his food.

The Academy Cafeteria's nu had noticeably changed today, clearly due to a new culinary team.

Feng Qi wasn't surprised.

To provide students with a better dining experience, the culinary teams cultivated by each academy rotated frequently.

Every year, students from various academies would rate these teams on the Black Box Forum, selecting the best culinary team.

This was a unique aspect of academy life.

After filling his tray with food, Feng Qi headed to the north corner of the cafeteria.

Lin Ran and Mu Qing were already there.

Judging by Lin Ran's expression, he had nearly finished eating.

Sitting beside Lin Ran, Feng Qi looked up at Mu Qing. The harmonica lody he had heard during his execution on the Sacrifice Line suddenly resurfaced in his mind.

"What's wrong?"

Mu Qing suddenly looked up, her cheeks puffed out in curiosity.

"That's right, Brother Qi, I feel like you're acting a bit strange today," Lin Ran asked curiously.

"Nothing's wrong. I just suddenly missed you guys," Feng Qi said with a grin.

Mu Qing: ???

Lin Ran: ???

"Didn't we just see each other at lunch?" Lin Ran asked, bewildered.

"I had a really long dream. In it, I was separated from you guys for a long ti, but at the end, I finally t Senior Sister Mu Qing."

"What about ?" Lin Ran asked curiously.

"You... you ended up cultivating a Demonic Path cultivation technique and went astray. You beca a Great Demon King, wreaking havoc upon the world and committing unforgivable sins."

"Whoa, that's a wuxia-style dream! What was my ultimate fate?" Lin Ran asked with a chuckle.

"You beca neither human nor ghost, your form resembling a wisp of mist, completely lost to yourself."

"That's pretty tragic," Lin Ran said, stuffing a mouthful of food into his mouth, clearly not grasping the severity of the situation.

Feng Qi didn't press the issue, as the Reality Line needed to remain stable.

As they ate dinner, he was lost in thought.

Now that he had regained his rapid digestion ability, he ate with great satisfaction.

Half an hour later, after finishing their al, he and Lin Ran stood up, bid farewell to Mu Qing, and headed toward the library.

During the evening study session, Feng Qi decided to review programming materials to better morize the code for the super virtual ga.

Upon arriving at the library, he found many students already engrossed in self-study.

Lin Ran selected a book on Cultivation Technique Research and sat down. Feng Qi, after asking the librarian, located a basic programming textbook in a secluded corner on the third floor.

The book was clearly long neglected, even unkempt, covered in a thick layer of dust.

After dusting it off, he returned to the reading room and sat down across from Lin Ran.

"Brother Qi, what are you up to now? Learning programming?"

"I want to create an AI that can automatically write cultivation techniques."

Lin Ran visibly froze at this, then nodded in admiration. "While I'm still figuring out how to get started with Cultivation Technique Research, you're already pondering how to automate the creation of cultivation techniques. I'm still on the first floor, and you're already in the stratosphere. Perhaps this is the difference between us."

"You don't actually believe that, do you?" Feng Qi asked, taken aback.

"I haven't received any news," Lin Ran replied calmly, his smile fading. "I'm just playing along. Maybe if you're happy, you'll teach about Cultivation Technique Research."

[This kid's a real drama queen. That actually made laugh, hahaha.]

Ignoring the Narrator's snide comnt, Feng Qi set down his book and looked at Lin Ran with a serious expression. "Do you rember what I told you before? About trying to develop an art magic that could counter Consciousness devouring?"

"Yes, I've been trying to figure it out every night recently. But I've never studied this before, so I'm still completely clueless. It'll take ti."

Feng Qi nodded. He knew that as long as Lin Ran was willing to try, this art magic would eventually be born.

However, he had learned from Lin Ran in the future that an art magic solely focused on countering Consciousness parasitism and devouring wouldn't be enough. Thinking of this, he imdiately spoke up. "Starting tomorrow, I'll teach you my approach to Cultivation Technique Research. But you have to promise sothing."

"What's the condition?" Lin Ran's eyes lit up with renewed interest.

"Besides the Anti-Parasitic Art, in the future you should try to develop a cultivation technique that protects your own consciousness."

"Brother Qi, I'm really curious why you want to do this."

"For your own good."

"You've been infected by Liu Yue's riddles. You've been speaking so cryptically lately, it's unbearable."

Feng Qi didn't elaborate.

For the rest of the evening, he began reading introductory books on programming languages.

Ti flew by, and soon Feng Qi was completely absorbed in his studies.

He beca oblivious to the world outside, his mind focused solely on his books.

It wasn't until the midnight bell echoed through the academy that Feng Qi and Lin Ran stood up and left the library.

After saying goodbye by the lake in front of the dormitory building, Feng Qi returned to his room.

It was late, but he wasn't tired.

Sitting at his desk, he opened his computer and began searching for programming knowledge, continuing his studies.

During this ti, he sent a few ssages to Fang Zhiyou, asking for recomndations for well-known gaming forums.

It was already past midnight, but Fang Zhiyou hadn't gone to sleep. He replied almost imdiately.

He recomnded a gathering place for gaming enthusiasts: the Black Box Forum.

Besides discussions on ga content, the forum also featured nurous helpful users sharing ga developnt guides and self-study tutorials.

Curiosity piqued, Feng Qi logged into the Black Box Forum through the link Fang Zhiyou had sent.

It was already past midnight, yet the forum was still bustling with activity. Most of the posts revolved around gaming topics.

He wasn't sure if his idea of creating a virtual instance similar to a Domain Field was even feasible.

He decided to post on the forum, asking for feedback from the community.

A mont later, Feng Qi registered an account and posted his first thread on the Black Box Forum:

[I have a concept. Can you all help assess its feasibility and identify any major hurdles to implentation?]

Author: Strongest Living Dead

Content:

I've been working on an interesting idea lately: creating a super virtual ga with 1:1 simulation of Real World environnts and physics, using a MOBA-style player-versus-player format...

With a lingering doubt, he posted his idea on the Black Box Forum, detailing his ambitious plan.

For example, he proposed collecting spell trajectories and data to create virtual Domain Field instances.

His post quickly sparked heated discussion among forum users.

Netizens responded with a flurry of comnts:

"Dude, your idea sounds suspiciously similar to the deity's plan. He's already started developing a virtual engine that can realistically simulate real-world physics. But you're going even further, aiming to create a full-fledged virtual reality ga."

"I can understand building a virtual engine, but a virtual ga? That's just absurd! You want to include tens of thousands of art magic spells and collect data on domain creatures to create different Domain Field instances? Let ask you one thing: do you even have enough lifespan to pull off such a wild project? (winking face emoji)"

"It's definitely possible, but just collecting spell information alone could take years. And that's before you even start testing. The difficulty level is astronomical! Plus, you'd need to sample data on domain creatures. Do you even know how many species there are? Hundreds of thousands? Millions?"

"Regardless, the OP's ambition is comndable. I hope you succeed and let play this ga in my lifeti. I recomnd contacting the deity; perhaps you could collaborate. Though I doubt he'll even bother replying."

The forum users' comnts were remarkably similar.

They all questioned his ideas, dismissing the possibility of him actually developing such a ga.

However, so enthusiastic users offered helpful suggestions.

For instance, they suggested seeking assistance from the Scarlet Research Institute's Domain Creature Research Specin Data Sampling Departnt for creating Virtual Domain instances.

Regarding the virtual ga pod, the Future Research Institute had already developed one, and he could collaborate with them.

As the discussion around the post intensified, the forum administrator eventually pinned it to the top.

More and more users shared their imaginative ideas, sparking Feng Qi's creativity.

While they doubted the feasibility of creating such a super virtual ga, they were still willing to brainstorm and offer suggestions.

Opening his notebook, he began recording the most insightful comnts, preparing for the ga's developnt.

These brilliant ideas could be seeds he planted for the future.

The Future People would gradually refine his concepts into reality, and these seeds would eventually blossom and bear fruit.

His task was to bring the fruits of the future back to the present.

Hours later, he closed the forum page and shut his laptop.

For the rest of the evening, he imrsed himself in programming resources online, continuing his studies.

What he didn't know was that the post he'd published on the Black Box Forum was still gaining traction.

Word had spread, attracting gaming industry leaders and even ga developers to join the discussion.

While discussions about super virtual gas had occurred on the forum before, none had been as detailed as Feng Qi's.

He ticulously described the process of collecting art magic techniques and sampling data from domain creatures, making his post quickly go viral.

Feng Qi remained oblivious to this, completely absorbed in his studies.

The next morning.

Feng Qi was awakened by a knock on his door. When he opened it, he found a delivery man waiting.

With a puzzled expression, he accepted the package from the security guard.

He glanced down and saw that the sender was the United Research Institute.

After closing the door, he went to his desk and opened the package.

Inside lay an exquisite, ink-blue box. He couldn't tell what material it was made of, but its surface was smooth and cool to the touch, with a tallic feel.

Pressing a switch, the box slowly opened.

The first layer contained a bottle of rit Wine and a small card detailing its serial number and effects.

Opening the second layer revealed a folded certification notice for the Fierce Tiger Fist.

The final layer held a bank card with a gold-plated border.

Compared to last ti, this package lacked the Human Outstanding Silver dal but included a bank card.

Curious, he took the card to his desk and sat down.

He logged into the bank's website using the address printed on the card and checked its balance.

A mont later, gazing at the five million credit balance displayed on the screen, Feng Qi couldn't help but grin.

His remaining balance was dwindling, enough for only two more entries into the Dream Realm. The arrival of five million credits was a tily solution to his imdiate financial concerns.

After transferring the entire balance from the gold card to his bank account, he turned his attention to the rit Wine.

With his mories still not fully integrated, he decided against entering the Dream Realm for now.

He retrieved the rit Wine and stashed the tal box under his desk.

Glancing at the ti, he left his room.

After breakfast, he joined Lin Ran and Mu Qing in the classroom, where the students had already gathered.

In addition to his own class, the room was packed with students from other classes who had co to audit the lecture.

Upon seeing Feng Qi, the students greeted him enthusiastically. He nodded in acknowledgnt and took the podium.

In this lesson, Feng Qi began teaching the newly acquired Dragon-Seizing Technique.

The students were visibly excited about the new cultivation technique, actively participating throughout the lecture and frequently raising their hands to ask questions.

Only the monk remained unfazed.

Regardless of what Feng Qi said, the monk maintained his expressionless deanor, as if to say:

"Yes, yes, what you're saying is very good, but I'm not actually listening."

Over the next few days, Feng Qi dedicated all his ti to studying programming and Battle Body configuration knowledge, except for his lecture hours.

By this day, Feng Qi no longer felt the effects of mory overlap and decided to re-enter the Dream Realm.

But before doing so, he decided to plan his future path.

Sitting at his desk, he opened his notebook and began writing.

Future Line 1: Investigate and contact the Future Research Institute to uncover the truth behind it.

Note: During this ti, instruct Lin Ran to develop a cultivation technique to protect consciousness and an art magic for consciousness counter-parasitism. Also, share the research findings on the Flesh and Blood Sacrifice from your mind with Old Wang, encouraging him to join the Scarlet Research Institute to continue deciphering the Flesh and Blood Sacrifice.

Future Line 2: Continue working at the Technology Research Institute, rapidly advance to the second tier using the knowledge in your mind, and then strive to reach the first tier to contact Mo, uncover the truth behind little black, and attempt to control him.

Note: This Future Line offers limited information and cannot guarantee contact with Mo, let alone a thod to control little black.

Future Line 3: Join the Dawn Battle Group and use Mu Qing to contact Mu Yao, seeking answers to nurous historical questions.

Note: This path carries the risk of premature death, but without attempting it, there is no other way to contact Mu Yao.

This ti, Feng Qi listed eight possible Future Lines.

Other options included joining the Tiger Soul Research Institute to investigate its internal factions, forming a domain combat team to locate the Domain Field where the Black Shadow Domain faction resided, or even choosing a tiline 1,500 years in the future to try contacting Future People and learn more information.

As he gathered more intelligence, his choices multiplied.

How should he decide? He fell into deep thought.

If he had to choose the Future Line with the greatest potential rewards, it would undoubtedly be joining the Dawn Battle Group to contact Mu Yao.

However, this Future Line carried the highest risk, with the possibility of achieving nothing.

From a cautious perspective, he believed contacting the Future Research Institute was the wisest choice.

Moreover, this tiline didn't require him to read the Sacrifice Line's mories; he could simply use email to learn the truth.

Having made his decision, he was about to stand up when his phone rang.

He picked it up and saw Bai Fusheng calling.

An old voice crackled through the phone:

"You little rascal, what have you done this ti? Get to the Principal's Office right now."

"What's wrong?" Feng Qi asked, startled.

"Director Wei of the Scarlet Research Institute is looking for you. I have sothing urgent to attend to outside. Go see her directly."

"Alright, I'll head over right away."

After hanging up, Feng Qi was puzzled.

Based on the previous tiline, Wei Wei shouldn't have been the one to seek him out.

[It must be sothing you did after returning to the Reality Line that altered the future's course. You'll find out the reason when you go to the Principal's Office.]

Following the Narrator's words, he imdiately rose from his bed and left his dorm.

Monts later, he arrived at the Principal's Office and pushed open the door.

His gaze t Wei Wei's, who was lounging on the sofa.

She was dressed casually today, her hair loosely pinned back, and she reclined on the sofa with a captivating allure.

"Hello, I'm Feng Qi!"

Facing his old friend, Feng Qi introduced himself with a smile, then sat down opposite her on the sofa.

"Why aren't you the least bit intimidated? Isn't my position as Director of the Scarlet Research Institute intimidating enough?" Wei Wei asked curiously.

"That was quite a scare. You almost gave a heart attack. Let's get to the point. Why did you co looking for ?" Feng Qi rolled his eyes.

In response to his question, Wei Wei nodded. "You're the one who posted that super virtual ga concept on the Black Box Forum recently, aren't you?"

Hearing this, Feng Qi imdiately understood why history had changed. It was clearly related to the post he had made. He asked, "How did you find out?"

"Major research institutes have access to the real-na verification information of forum users. After checking, I knew it was you. I never expected you to have such a brilliant concept."

"So, what's your purpose in seeking out?"

"We're very interested in the super virtual ga you described. If it can truly be created, it would be a groundbreaking research project that would benefit all of humanity. However, the initial stages will be extrely challenging. Would you be interested in joining the Scarlet Research Institute? We can establish a Virtual Technology Research Departnt just for you."

"Isn't the Scarlet Research Institute focused on biological sciences?" Feng Qi asked, surprised.

"We invest in research projects across all domains, as long as they're promising."

"Just funding? The research results would be mine, and I'd stay at Star City Academy?"

"What do you think? Do you think we're fools?" Wei Wei said, slightly exasperated.

"Never mind then. I'm busy. I'll contact you later. Next ti, I'll treat you to Mala lobster." Feng Qi stood up to leave.

"Hey? How did you know I like Mala lobster?"

"If I told you we've known each other for a long ti, would you believe ?"

"When?" Her eyes rippled with curiosity.

"It's a long story."

"Please keep it brief. Everyone's busy."

"Do you believe in reincarnation?"

Looking at Feng Qi's serious expression, Wei Wei smiled.

"You're not going to tell we were lovers in a past life, bound by several lifetis of karmic debt, are you? Hahaha, that's too lodramatic."

"Not quite. In our past life, you wanted to be my girlfriend, but I cruelly rejected you."

"Though I didn't see the aftermath, I'm sure you cried your eyes out."

"That's it then. I'll be going now... Perhaps I'll be back to see you soon," Feng Qi said before leaving, turning back to speak before exiting the Principal's Office without a backward glance.

Wei Wei was left alone in the ssy office.

She realized she had just been toyed with by this little brat.

Yet, for so reason, after interacting with Feng Qi, she couldn't shake the feeling of having t an old friend.

It was as if what Feng Qi had said was true—that they had known each other before.

"You little rascal! When you die, I'll have your body brought to my lab and castrate you to make a human body specin!" Wei Wei fud, glaring at the closed door.

Back in his dorm, Feng Qi sat on the sofa and reached for the rit Wine on the coffee table.

He twisted off the cap and downed three large gulps.

This bottle of rit Wine was enough for three entries into the Dream Realm, so he stopped after drinking about a third of it.

As his body reacted strongly, he felt as if a ball of fire was burning within him.

This Future Line focused on the Future Research Institute.

He yearned for more companions and believed that Scarlet Research Institute wasn't the only human faction striving forward alone in Human Civilization.

As ti passed, the energy progress bar t the requirents for entering the Dream Realm.

Drunk, he imdiately lay down on the sofa and began to wait.

In his closed-eyed ditation, his expression gradually softened...

When Feng Qi opened his eyes, his gaze was drawn to the hazy Blood Moon hanging in the sky.

He looked around, but nothing had changed.

This Future Line, which had connected him to the Future Research Institute, had apparently failed to alter the fate of Human Civilization.

He wasn't surprised.

What truly concerned him were the altered historical events within this Future Line and the truth behind the Future Research Institute.

With a lingering doubt, he took two steps forward and with a single kick sent Little Cripple's head flying over ten ters away. Without looking back, he strode toward the Star City Shelter.

Monts later, he stood before the control console of the Star City Shelter.

After activating the database, he opened the search bar and typed in his na.

After a few seconds, his detailed information appeared on the screen:

Feng Qi (Era's Paragon)

Age at Death: 17

Cause of Death: Assassinated by a Domain-Transcending Creature.

Date of Death: September 18, 2022.

Lifeti Achievents (Honors): S-Class Human Elite dal (posthumous), Human Developnt Outstanding Contribution Gold Award (posthumous), etc.

Research Accomplishnts: Cultivation Exercises Version 2.0, Fierce Tiger Fist, Body Tempering Art, Heaven and Earth ditation, soul seizing, Founder of the Human Body Deity Seeding Concept, Dragon-Seizing Technique

Evaluation: Feng Qi was a super genius destined to be enshrined in history. However, during his most brilliant year, he was assassinated by a Domain-Transcending Creature in his dormitory at Star City Academy. The news sent shockwaves through the entire academy, prompting a thorough investigation that has yet to yield any clues.

Feng Qi's death is truly a tragedy. Otherwise, we have every reason to believe he would have beco a towering figure in history.

Feng Qi froze when he saw the date of his death: September 18th.

That was the very day he had entered the Dream Realm.

Did this an he would be assassinated by a domain creature on the day he returned to the Real World?

[Damn, a new record low!]

Could it be because your post on the Black Box Forum, soliciting suggestions for a super virtual ga, caught the attention of a hidden Domain Force, prompting them to send an assassin after you?

"Most likely," Feng Qi nodded imdiately. "I haven't done anything else since returning to the Real World. The only variable is that post on the Black Box Forum."

Filled with doubt, he imdiately accessed the database to review the records related to his death.

The information he found next sent a chill down his spine.

The database records showed that the day after his death, Lin Ran and Mu Qing had discovered his body.

After examining his corpse, they determined that he had died around 3:00 PM on the 18th.

Before entering the Dream Realm, he had checked the ti: it was 2:47 PM.

That ant he had only about thirteen minutes to escape after returning from the Dream Realm this ti.
