"In other words … this is a very ancient 'creature'."
This place was … within the travel space.
Not long ago, Lin and the creatures here had captured … a consciousness that had been passed down from a very long time ago.
The collective belief was a very strange 'creature'. Its consciousness had been maintained for a very long time.
It could always be 'summoned' by various creatures. As long as a group of scattered consciousnesses was gathered in a certain way … it could appear.
Such a creature with such a long history would normally be very powerful.
However, it was not very powerful … apart from the fact that it was very difficult to kill.
In its long history, the collective belief had not done anything.
It could be said that it had always been in a state of 'desireless'. Whenever the collective belief was created through various methods, it would not do anything, nor did it intend to do anything.
It would just stare at the void … until it died, and then be reborn somewhere else, and die again.
The long cycle of reincarnation accompanied by the corpses of countless creatures with personalities. Until now, there had only been two abnormal situations.
The first was Ershi.
It had tried to develop instead of waiting for death. The second time was now … it had developed an interest in distortion, causing it to have additional emotions.
Although it now believed that Ershi was the culprit who had strangled its emotions, based on its long life history, it was abnormal for it to have emotions.
As a matter of fact, after being 'killed' by Er Sh, the collective would be able to clearly remember what happened the next time it was reborn.
However, it did not care at the time, so it did not think about doing anything to Ershi.
It was only now that various emotions had arisen that it became angry at Ershi for killing it.
These emotions had caused it to deviate from its original life path … although it did not know why this was the case, it was indeed abnormal for such a collective to be like this.
And the reason Lin knew all this was because of its distortion experiments.
The collective did not only use distortion to affect various things, it also constantly adjusted the source of distortion, which was the nuclear information of cellular creatures.
In its long-term research, it had always been searching for cellular creatures. However, there were very few cellular creatures in this place, so it found a way to create its own.
To be precise, it created nuclear information.
At some point, the collective discovered some cellular creatures. These creatures' actions and thoughts could cause subtle changes to the nuclear information.
Simply put, they were creatures that looked like pompoms.
Nuclear information was not stable, and many things could cause it to change.
The collective had been conducting experiments on these creatures. Its main purpose was to insert all kinds of information into the brains of these creatures to observe how these creatures affected the nuclear information in their bodies and their offspring.
The collective put a lot of information into the minds of these creatures, and what it liked the most was the life experiences of other creatures.
For example, stuffing a complete set of the life history of a bone creature into the brain of a cellular creature and then observing what effect this would have on the creature.
In this experiment, it even inserted its own experience into the brains of some cellular organisms to experiment.
It also carried this cellular organism on its body.
The aggregates of faith that Lin had seen so far were ten gigantic bones, none of which could be considered the main body.
These bones transmitted a large amount of information to each other, and the consciousness of the amalgamated body lay in this information.
It was similar to the way some species used pheromones to transmit information to each other to form a group mentality.
However, the collective body used some methods to make these skeletons send and receive information in a certain direction. This made it seem as if it had a main brain.
In fact, this was to give … There were indeed some more important bones among the bones.
Some of these bones contained a lot of cellular organisms, as well as a large amount of nuclear information.
So far, Lin had discovered that two of these gigantic bones contained a lot of cellular organisms.
This was to make it convenient to take them out for experiments. When the collective body was active … it would send information to these two skeletons that contained a lot of cellular organisms, mainly to inject various' experiences' into their brains.
These cellular organisms might not be able to do anything, but due to the stimulation and influence of these external signals on their bodies, they could continue to grow and even 'evolve' even if they could not move.
After Lin had caught the bones, she had examined most of its structure, and then found these cellular organisms stored in the bones. Usually, these cellular organisms' brains were the contents of these information.
What Lin cared more about was the content of distortion.
Whether it was the thin thread or the 'god', they could not directly read the content of distortion to achieve distortion.
This collective body … had a way to directly read the nuclear information and then distort it.
This was mainly due to a 'device' installed in one of its skeletons.
This thing was very … complicated. It looked like a metal structure, but it was mixed with solidified matter.
The collective body's consciousness could use it to read the 'hidden content' in the biological nuclear information.
Lin still didn't know how it worked, and to what extent it could control the distortion.
These details would not be inputted into the cellular organism's brain, but Lin believed that she would be able to find out after more research.
The other device that seemed to be a spatial control device was also inside one of the skeletons. Lin found that this device was very similar to the spatial movement device that Lin and Ershi had made.
Its main function was to adjust these small spaces created by the mixing of the solidified void and the normal void.
This included adjusting some of the 'rules' within these small spaces.
But once it left its own space, it would become much weaker.
Although the collective body seemed to have 'toyed' with the skeletons' civilization, it was actually … not very strong.
It had never fought against an opponent like Ershi who had an understanding of space, so it seemed to have been easily defeated.
And Ershi's suggestion was … to kill it.
Killing it did not mean destroying these gigantic bones, but using some method to make its consciousness disappear.
This meant that it was dead, and its consciousness would be transferred to the next place, where the next group of creatures with the same faith would be.
At the same time, Ershi also said that it had some methods to track where its consciousness would be transferred.
Although Ershi had not encountered a collective body of faith for a long time, it had been thinking about what kind of life form this creature was.
At the same time, Ershi also came up with some methods to test and verify it.
