Formless was a type of … spatial creature.
To be precise, it was a creature that could only stay in certain spaces.
In the past, when the Void Tunnel still existed, Formless could swim freely in the vast environment of the tunnel.
But when the Void Tunnel died, Formless and its kind were also trapped in the small spaces that were broken apart.
Some of these spaces further collapsed into even finer 'fragments'.
But some remained, just like the tunnel … and recently, Formless had been living in one of these small spaces.
It had chanced upon … an Ancient Mud.
The Ancient Mud had wanted to use this small space to move long distances, or to be precise, to send the small mud it had split off into the distant Void.
Formless did not have any particular opinion about this, but it was very interested in the Ancient Mud and the small mud, and thus observed them for a long time.
It noticed that all the small mud believed that they could slowly evolve as creatures, and eventually grow into an Ancient Mud.
But their final fate was actually to be devoured by the Ancient Mud.
Thus, Formless once tried to tell the small mud their final fate.
The small mud were extremely … shocked, mainly because the way Formless told them was to send some signals to their minds, allowing them to 'see' their lives and their final fate of being devoured by the Ancient Mud.
This extremely realistic feeling made the small mud instantly believe it all, and so they all stopped doing the Ancient Mud's mission, and began to plan … to resist it.
The initial plan of resistance quickly failed, because the Ancient Mud could know the location of each small mud, and could even see what they were doing.
Noticing that they were about to rebel, the Ancient Mud immediately ordered them to … commit suicide.
Formless thus understood … that although the small mud had their own thoughts, their bodies were … completely controlled by the Ancient Mud.
The Ancient Mud could send out a forced signal, which could control almost the entire body apart from the small mud's nervous system.
That way, it could order the small mud to do anything at will, and of course, the Ancient Mud usually let them do it themselves.
This was because the Ancient Mud could not control too many small mud at once, so it had to let the small mud have their own thoughts and complete their own missions.
Or perhaps the Ancient Mud was simply too lazy.
In fact, the Ancient Mud's life had always been spent in 'enjoyment', which was to browse through the large amount of memories in its body, and modify them as it wished to create new scenarios.
Even if the ancient mud could directly control all the small mud to do various tasks, it did not like to do such tiring work.
It would only do so when it was absolutely necessary.
And now … was the time to do so.
This was because Ancient Mud was suspicious when Little Mud first tried to rebel. It had always used Little Mud like this … and it had never made a mistake.
Why would a group of people suddenly want to rebel?
Thus, the Ancient Mud quickly suspected Formless.
Because that batch of rebellious mud had gone to the space where Formless was, the ancient mud noticed Formless inside.
It knew a little about Formless, so it thought that Formless was a creature that could affect its little mud.
Thus, the ancient mud gathered a group of … armies.
This time, it forcibly controlled a large group of mud as an army to attack Formless's spatial territory, hoping to completely destroy Formless.
As a result, the army entered the formless space and engaged in an intense battle with the formless space.
But … there were no results.
Ancient Mud noticed that the army that had entered the space was slowly losing control and signal.
It did not know if the army had died or what happened to them … and while the ancient mud was confused, Formless … was slowly transforming its army.
The ancient mud's army lost contact, of course, because of Formless … Formless cut off Ancient Mud's signal so that the army would not be under its control.
At the same time, it also told the army the truth about Ancient Mud, causing them to rebel.
Thus, this army became … Formless's army.
Formless was prepared to use them to attack Ancient Mud.
However, this was not because Formless wanted to take revenge because Ancient Mud had beaten Formless. Formless simply wanted to see the mud successfully defeat Ancient Mud.
However, Formless's isolation could only work in the space. After leaving the space, this army of mud would still be completely controlled by Ancient Mud.
Thus, Formless came up with a way to make them uncontrollable even after leaving the space.
It injected some special substance into the mud.
This caused the mud to turn red … this was the origin of the 'red slurry'.
But this red color could only be seen by cellular organisms that categorized things by color.
For the mud, when they 'looked' at their own appearance, they could not see any changes.
And they were very happy. They thought that this was a 'blessing' given to them by Formless.
Thus, they began their journey to fight against Ancient Mud.
And Formless put something that could be said to be 'monitoring' into some of the red slurry's body.
At this time, Formless could directly observe the surrounding environment through the slurry's body.
It mainly wanted to use this method to follow them and see the situation outside the space.
Formless itself could observe the outside of the space, but there was a certain range. If it was too far away, it would not be able to see.
But with the red slurry's surveillance, it could see much further than before.
And thus, the red slurry's action against Ancient Mud began.
They did not immediately attack Ancient Mud. Instead, they went around … gathering allies.
To be precise, they went to capture the little mud that was doing missions everywhere. They caught the mud into Formless' space … and dyed it red. At the same time, they told it what Ancient Mud was doing.
This made their army grow bigger and bigger.
Of course, the Ancient Mud also noticed this and decided to come up with a way to destroy this growing army.
But … a small accident happened.
And that was a miracle.
A miracle with a special effect happened to the ancient mud.
This caused … its body to suffer great damage. And its nervous system was also damaged.
