Ever since he became the main body of the Spirit of the Holy Grail, he already knew that the Holy Grail had nine Worlds in a Cup that had existed since the beginning. They were very different, of extremely high levels, and formed their own systems.
For example, the World of Life that he had encountered a long time ago, or the World of Reality that had merged with the Earth's universe.
Now, there was also the World of Time and the World of Emptiness, which represented the basic laws. Even though he had never explored them and didn't know the specific structure inside, he knew that one of the two huge spheres represented the limit of space, and the other represented the limit of time.
Then, what would the remaining five special Worlds in a Cup be?
Chen Guang took out a table before him and held onto his chin as he pondered.
In fact, he was a little anxious.
Before he knew it, another year had passed in the Earth's universe.
The new social structure formed by the Awakened and ordinary people was steadily moving forward. Everything was steadily moving from chaos to order.
This was originally a good thing, but Chen Guang had been gone for too long.
It had been so long that even though everyone knew that he wouldn't be in any danger and would often receive all kinds of messages from him, not seeing him for a whole 11 years still made people feel uneasy.
The women and friends who had already become Awakened were fine. Because of their abilities and the strengthening of their bodies using reward points, everyone's aging speed was greatly reduced.
If the average lifespan of humans in the past was 70 years, then even though no players had died of natural causes yet, based on the speed at which they aged, they would at least be over 200 years old.
Chen Guang felt that top-level players like Lu Fei and Teacher Zhuo, even if they reached 100 years old, their bodily functions would at most not exceed that of an ordinary 30 years old, and they would still be able to give birth in one go.
He didn't have to worry too much about this.
But none of his family members had awakened.
It was inconceivable that the people around him were all affected by his fate, and their paths as players were often much smoother than others. Almost all of them had awakened, and the improvement of their abilities after awakening was far greater than that of ordinary players.
But none of his family members had made any moves!
Although they had benefited from the many businesses and Yu Meng left behind by Chen Guang, Heaven's Ministry had never slacked off on the security of Chen Guang's family. The Chen family's seven aunts, cousins, cousins, cousins, and so on were all living very well.
However, out of the dozens of people in the Chen Family whose bloodline was the closest to his, not a single one had successfully awakened.
In the past, players and ordinary people were separated, so it was fine if no one knew.
But now, the Awakened Players had already integrated into the lives of ordinary people. After the Thunder Hand suppressed a large number of restless Awakened Players, everything was perfectly integrated. Now, even the people selling roasted sweet potatoes on the streets were psychics who heated them with their hands. The Chen family, a prominent family in the county, did not have a single Awakened. This was very embarrassing.
What was even more embarrassing was that after 11 years, Chen Guang's parents and family members had aged a lot.
Chen Guang thought to himself that from the perspective of genes, which was also the biological code, his family should be the closest to him.
Even if there would be some slight differences, they should be closer than others. The differences could only be reflected in small differences such as whether the nose was tall or not, whether the eyes were big or not, and how much difference in height.
Wasn't it because the genes of blood relatives were too similar? Wasn't it easy to mutate and cause deformities?
Maybe it was because the most perfect genetic combination of the entire Chen Family for thousands of years was concentrated in me alone, so I could be so awesome?
As the hope of the entire village, I took all the talents of others?
Or in other words, the total amount of awakened talents that each set of genes could enjoy was limited.
The total amount of talents of my Chen Family was reflected in me alone, so others couldn't do anything about it.
Chen Guang thought that it was really possible, but he couldn't change anything.
However, when he thought of the possibility that he would only be able to return to Earth after a few decades, and by then, his parents would have already died of old age. As a son, it would be meaningless no matter how much money he gave them now, no matter how high his status was.
However, while he was complaining in his mind, he was pulled into the next world in the cup, the combination of the Time Realm and the Real World.
The world in the Sun Dazzling Cup opened a new picture for him.
In this plane called the Real World of Time, the world was divided into countless real existences, which were separated from each other but closely connected.
In terms of spatial structure, all the fragments in the plane were eternally separated, but in terms of time, every two fragments were closely connected with each other by an infinitely small time difference.
For example, Chen Guang randomly chose a civilized planet in this universe and found a house on it, and this house had countless copies in the vertical direction of time.
Then, he threw the water cup on the table in the house to the ground. As the water cup kept falling to the ground, it was like holding a camera with infinite frames and shooting at the water cup.
Every frame in the camera was a complete space. At the same time, as the cup approached the ground, everything in the universe, from the big stars to the small particles, was undergoing a natural evolution.
This was the real space that was divided into infinite time sections, and Chen Guang's task was to travel between any two sections that might be separated by a hundred years or only a moment. According to the requirements of the world in the cup, he could precisely control some details or change history.
In the Real World of Time, he faced an unprecedented super-philosophical test.
In the process of constantly traveling, he magnified the time paradox and the butterfly effect to the extreme.
Sometimes, he traveled back to ten years ago and slapped a little kid's butt, telling him that he couldn't cut down this apple tree, or he would be beaten by his father.
Then the little kid really didn't cut down the tree. Then, in the process of this time section's derivation, the country called the United States, because the original great people did not grow up, delayed at least 50 years before it became independent.
At the same time, because the establishment of this hegemonic country was delayed for 50 years, it led to another civilization on this planet that was good at creation to avoid many years of suffering, allowing this planet's civilization to enter the technological level of space travel a hundred years before another civilization of the same level.
This further led to another interstellar civilization that should have been promoted from level one to level two was destroyed by this civilization. This planet's civilization that should have been annihilated in the long river of history, because of this fast step, took the lead step by step, and finally became one of the hegemonic civilizations in the entire universe.
At the moment when Chen Guang slapped the little kid's butt, all the time sections that followed along this timeline were completely fragmented, but in an instant, a new timeline section was formed.
Chen Guang could even write a long magnum opus based on this, "On How a Little Butt Affects the Operation of the Universe".
But this was only one of the countless things he did in real time. He kept traveling back and forth, constantly operating according to the requirements of the Holy Grail in each section. Sometimes, nothing would change, but sometimes, the history of the entire universe would be rewritten.
In this process of constantly destroying and tampering with history, Chen Guang's understanding of real existence and the nature of time became more and more profound.
He realized that the plane always had an extremely powerful self-healing ability. No matter how he manipulated the time sections, even if the worldview behind these sections was completely overturned, or even if he forcefully left behind the seeds of internal energy to change this universe from a technological universe to a cultivation universe, this universe would still be able to self-perfect and repair itself.
The universe would always be able to justify itself.
When he finally left the real world of time, his previous worries were gone.
It doesn't matter how long I leave, as long as I'm capable enough, I can completely go back to the designated time when I travel back to Earth!
For example, go back to the day when my secondary consciousness received its graduation certificate?
Why not before I received my graduation certificate?
What a joke!
The owner of the Holy Grail, the overlord of the universe, the Supreme of the Heavenly Realm, the most invincible demon king in Jianghu still had to go to the graduation examination?
Can't I just skip that part?!
The biggest gain that the world in the cup brought him was actually not the ability to travel back and forth in time, but the confidence of having no worries.
Now, he had completely broken away from the category of ordinary people, and was even several levels higher than the realm of the Golden Immortals or the Supreme of Demon Martial Arts written in Xianxia novels or Xuanhuan novels. Before he solved all his worries, opened the whole Heavenly Holy Grail, and completed the so-called mission left behind by his "previous life", it was impossible for him to return to Earth and live the life of an ordinary person.
But he did not want to wait until after he finished all the loose ends, only to find that thousands of years had passed, and everyone he knew had become a cup of soil by the time he returned.
If that was the case, even if he became the master of all worlds, even if he could control heaven and earth, even if he could create things out of thin air, so what?
If he lost everything that he was familiar with, no matter how much he gained in other things, wouldn't it be the same as having nothing?
Even if he had all the planes, if he didn't have what he truly cared about, wouldn't it be the same as an illusion?
Even if he became a god, Chen Guang did not intend to change his view of the world.
He did not want to care about what kind of power his "previous life" had in the endless Heavenly Realm, and he did not want to care about the friends or enemies of his "previous life".
Until now, he had not recovered even the slightest memory of his so-called "previous life", and even if he recovered it, he did not intend to accept it.
In his eyes, he was a brand-new, fresh life, and did not need to live for others.
Even if some things were fated in his "previous life" when he was born, in essence, he was still a person born on a blue planet called Earth among the countless stars in the universe.
Perhaps Ruri was the only exception. She must have had a close relationship with his "previous life", but it did not matter.
"Previous life" was "previous life", and "I" was "me".
I want to take care of Ruri's feelings, I want to release her from the Holy Grail, and fulfill her long-cherished wish. This is because I owe her a blessing in this life.
Precisely because Ruri's appearance changed my life, it is only right for me to fulfill her wish.
Chen Guang did not care at all about what promises and agreements he made with Ruri in his "previous life".
Actually, at this moment, he still did not know that the reason why the origin of the endless Heavenly Realm could still sleep peacefully and did not notice him, an anomaly, nor did it notice that the true crisis of the Heavenly Realm was about to get out of hand, was because the memories of gods in Chen Guang's body could never be awakened.
Because his "previous life" had indeed died.
That was not his real "previous life", it was nothing more than a thought left in the universe of Earth, and in the end, after tens of billions of years, it controlled the invisible network bit by bit over this long period of time, allowing the Earth to give birth to Chen Guang.
It was like an MMORPG player suddenly dying, but before he died, he pressed the "Auto Find the Way" button. Even if the player died immediately, his character would still follow the Auto Find the Way to the quest location.
At this moment, after seeing through the real time, Chen Guang entered the next world within a cup after a short rest.
The fifth world, one of the Nine Great Special Worlds, suddenly appeared in front of him. It was the opposite of the real world, called the Illusory World.
From the very beginning, his memory had been tampered with, and he became a youth living in the world of Dou Qi.
His name was Xiao Yan.
