Chapter 468: Domain Trait, Abyss·Will
Chapter 468: Domain Trait, Abyss·Will
Massive psychic vibrations, like a steady heartbeat, connected all humans through their faith in the divine and the divine power that linked them.
Qin Muye watched the changes in the Material Plane with a calm expression. Today, he was unusually not in his laboratory.
"Five months, finally done. The other side is still a step behind."
He could feel his body gradually restructuring itself. The changes in his strength were secondary; the true transformation was fundamental.
He was slowly breaking down and reassembling his concept, combining it with the indescribable essence to form something even more indescribable.
It felt like a +1 enhancement.
Under his skin, something continuously writhed, occasionally revealing numerous cracks. The Abyss showed a glimpse of its iceberg-like presence.
He was now deeply binding himself to the Endless Abyss and establishing the concept of Abyss Will·Black Abyss Emperor through the spirits.
It was like planting an anchor. When someone saw his true form, they would immediately recognize his concept.
This was not a disadvantage. Every time another being knew his concept, even if he were killed, he could return as long as no one forgot him.
Just like the Mother of Races, even after death, she could return.
Qin Muye was making a similar transformation.
"Once my transformation is complete, I'll kill you," Qin Muye said, looking at the Material Plane.
A month ago, the Gendaya Mother Goddess had unified all humans, forming a new barrier. She connected everyone through their subconscious and continuously interfered with the entire Material Plane through psychic power.
Now, the Material Plane had completely transformed into a psychic field filled with collective consciousness. The spirits had been withdrawn.
To humans, the spirits might just be strange life forms, but during the last time Qin Muye acted, the Gendaya Mother Goddess had already placed him on a blacklist. As derivatives of Qin Muye, the spirits were naturally also on the blacklist.
Either leave or die, there was no third option.
So, after discussions, they could only withdraw. Fortunately, the Gendaya Mother Goddess had no interest in the Material Plane, or Qin Muye would have been unable to tolerate it.
Not long ago, the Gendaya Mother Goddess, driven by the responsibilities of survival and reproduction, had constantly transcended her own limits, including but not limited to materializing the immaterial and activating logic. Although she still lacked a sense of self, her behavioral principles had become much more flexible, no longer acting like the mindless rule-following entity she once was.
To resist the threat of extinction, she had directly integrated everyone into the psychic field, fully activating the subconscious network, forming an alternative psychic network.
This new psychic network, through the subconscious of all individuals, covered the entire Material Plane.
But these were not the most critical issues. After remote observation, the intelligence department discovered even more shocking information: the Gendaya Mother Goddess was transforming everyone.
She was turning them into a new form of energy life, the specifics of which were still unclear. All previous actions were preparations for this plan.
She was truly going to great lengths to ensure the survival of these people.
If there were a conflict between survival and reproduction, she would undoubtedly choose survival. After all, only by surviving could one consider reproduction; otherwise, without life, there would be no reproduction.
Qin Muye was aware of these matters. Under normal circumstances, he would have stopped her, but at that time, he was too busy researching the Gendaya Mother Goddess to enhance his own strength. So, he let her be, planning to deal with her once he had leveled up.
Even if he were to intervene now, it would be futile. Unless he used the Abyssal Flood to kill everyone, there would be no way to stop her, at least not to directly kill the Gendaya Mother Goddess in the Material Plane.
Another reason was that there was no benefit in killing now. Killing ordinary people would only yield skeleton soldiers, no points or treasure chests. Why waste the effort?
His domain didn't lack laborers at the moment.
Since everyone wasn't prepared, it was better to let each side prepare. We'll see who is ready first and act accordingly.
Qin Muye was fairly confident because he had already made all the necessary preparations. He was just waiting for the transformation to be completed so he could dig a pit for the Gendaya Mother Goddess in advance.
"Step one, the transformation of self, is complete. Now, it's time for the second step."
Conceptualization was only the first step. Each of his projects targeted different aspects: the Overlord, the Domain, the troops, and the heroes.
It wasn't just about making himself stronger.
The Endless Abyss, though named as such, lacked a true Abyss Will. Therefore, Qin Muye naturally took it upon himself to become the Abyss Will of the entire Endless Abyss.
This conceptualization was a simple and brutal method. While it might not completely sever the domain from the Age of Overlords, it would certainly grant more autonomy.
Silently, the concept seeped into every part of the Endless Abyss, gradually infiltrating each region.
Qin Muye could feel himself gaining control over every area, from the Abyss Layers to the Dreamscapes and Floating Cities, all falling under the jurisdiction of the Abyss Will. Everything would revolve around his will.
The flow of Abyssal Power, the movements of the spirits, the shapes of buildings—everything proceeded smoothly.
He had conducted countless experiments and even had various backup plans, ensuring there would be no unforeseen issues. Each point had been thoroughly tested, guaranteeing no problems.
There was no risk of losing control or sudden issues, as this operation involved not just him but the coordination of all the spirits within the domain.
"Step two completed. Now, only the final step remains."
With the Overlord and the Domain both conceptually bound, only the troops and heroes remained.
Fortunately, the external nodes of the Star Array had been completed, and the engineering teams, security personnel, and even the spirit scouts had returned to the Endless Abyss due to the events in the Material Plane. This was a rare and opportune moment.
The tide of magic spread out from Qin Muye, encompassing every spirit. The Abyssal patterns on their bodies began to activate.
Previously, these patterns were merely formed by Abyssal Power. Now, they represented the Abyss Will's recognition, akin to an identity proof.
But it was more than just an identity proof. It allowed the spirits to be more closely connected to the Endless Abyss and Qin Muye. For instance, if a spirit died and encountered a formidable opponent, they might not be able to be revived through the Seven Chapter Secret Codex—the artificial domain trait. However, with this Abyssal certification, Qin Muye could instantly retrieve their soul and revive them.
More importantly, if the spirits were outmatched, they could invoke Qin Muye's power through a divine descent, either to fight head-on or to escape.
The enhancement wasn't limited to the Seven Chapter Secret Codex; various other domain traits like Shared Fate and Unity of All were also boosted.
When Qin Muye fully completed the transformation into the Abyss Will·Black Abyss Emperor, a new domain trait was formed.
Abyss·Will: I Am the State
The description was simple—just four words—but it clearly defined the domain's ownership.
"Completed, it wasn't easy." Qin Muye finally relaxed. Despite the smooth process, the preparation had been incredibly busy.
Without thorough preparation, such a seamless transformation would have been impossible. He might have had to shout "Break through!" like a protagonist, but Qin Muye doubted it would have been of much use.
"Since there's still time, I'll check my status." Qin Muye knew he had become stronger, but he needed a comprehensive assessment to determine exactly how much stronger he had become. He couldn't accurately predict his strength or breakthroughs just by feeling it.
His system didn't even have defined realms, using the Age of Overlords ranking system instead. However, the ranking system couldn't provide a clear indication of his strength. If he had an Overlord Panel, it would have been easier, but his Overlord Panel was even more garbled.
