Chapter 545 The truth of the universe

The so-called causal leap is actually similar to the way Su Yu moved in nothingness before.

Directly utilize the “cause” of thought to achieve the “result” of movement.

However, the battleship's causal engine is much more powerful, so the distance it can travel is much greater.

Of course, the distance here is the distance at the causal level, not the spatial distance in the usual sense.

This kind of causal jump also requires the help of star tower navigation to locate in order to achieve precise movement.

At this time, under the control of the Fear Intelligence, the battleship's star tower navigation (outside the universe version) has been activated, and began to search for the surrounding causal radiation sources as a positioning reference for the jump.

Su Yu looked at the map above and found that there was only one large causal radiation source, marked as "primitive universe".

That is the real universe that Su Yu is familiar with, and the place where he was born.

It seems that the original human empire named this universe the "original universe".

At this time, the causal jump has already started, and the "cause" of the entire battleship has been generated.

As long as Su Yu determines the target, he can immediately transform the "cause" into effect and reach the vicinity of the target.

However, Su Yu did not immediately select the large causal radiation source, but searched for it on the star tower navigation map.

He is looking for his own little universe.

But none was found.

It is probably because the size of the microuniverse is too small. The entire microuniverse is only slightly larger than the blue star. With such a small size, the causal radiation is too weak to be explored.

"What a pity. I originally wanted to go back first..."

Su Yu originally wanted to try to drive the battleship to the small universe first, and then move the useful things on the battleship to the small universe.

But it seems that it cannot be done for the time being.

But this is actually a good thing.

The battleship cannot search for the microcosm, and other unknown existences are also difficult to find, which makes the microcosm relatively safe.

However, Su Yu remembered that he had just left the causal radiation range of the microcosm and immediately encountered the dead face.

Maybe that cosmic undead seems to have a way to find the small universe, so it sent out those dead human faces to watch outside the range of causal radiation?

Because it is a cosmic undead, it has a special method of searching and sensing the microcosm?
This reduces the security of the microcosm.

Of course, it could also be pure luck.

Those dead faces were wandering in the void and happened to come near the microcosm?
Su Yu really wanted to figure out how the cosmic undead found the small universe?

However, Su Yu can only seal this cosmic undead with the power of cause and effect for the time being, and he is unable to explore its memory or obtain its secrets.

Su Yu tried to send out his thoughts and asked the cosmic undead this question.

The cosmic undead immediately sneered and said, "Okay, the question is in my memory. I can open my memory and you can find it yourself!"

The cosmic undead agreed readily, but Su Yu ignored it.

This guy obviously wanted to trick Su Yu.

The memory of a universe, even if it is just an undead, contains an amount of information that is beyond Su Yu's ability to bear.

If he dared to search the memories of the cosmic undead, his mind would immediately be blown into an idiot by the huge amount of information.

Seeing that Su Yu was not fooled, the cosmic undead stopped sneering and no one knew what he was thinking.

Seeing that Su Yu has already initiated the causal transition, as long as he returns to the real universe, the undead in this universe may be swallowed up.

But it didn't beg for mercy.

There was no yelling in anger like before.

It seems like it wants to retain its last bit of dignity.

Does a cosmic spirit have its own pride and dignity? Or is this just a simulated personality?

Su Yu had no way of knowing.

Su Yu did not ask any more questions, but silently set the goal of the transition: return to the original universe!
hum...

The battleship shook slightly, and after a moment, it returned to normal, as if nothing had happened.

But Su Yu immediately felt that there were subtle changes in the causal environment inside the warship.

Although the causal ratio has not changed at all, Su Yu keenly discovered that the causal environment in the battleship is no longer maintained by the causal engine, but comes from another powerful causal radiation source.

Just like the original light source in the battleship was the internal lights, but now it has become the "sunlight" shining in from the windows.

Su Yu quickly turned his mind to the outside of the warship, and then he felt that a boundless unknown object was hanging outside the warship.

Its shape cannot be described in words. Even with Su Yu's strength, he cannot see even a little bit of its true appearance.

Can't see, or rather, can't understand.

All I could feel was an overwhelming sense of presence and an aura of boundless malevolence and fear that was blowing in my face.

Su Yu saw endless mountains of corpses and seas of blood, endless pain and torture, countless deaths and fear.

All the terror and malice I had experienced before suddenly flooded back to my mind.

It seems that the unknown thing is the collection of all horror and malice.

The moment he sensed that unknown object, Su Yu felt fear again.

This kind of fear was different from the fear aroused by the dead face before. It came entirely from Su Yu's instinct.

That is the instinctive fear that a living being feels when seeing an unknown being that is extremely powerful and carries boundless malice.

"What is this! We must escape...!"

The thought of running away suddenly came to Su Yu's mind.

This thing is too terrifying. Could it be a monster from nothingness?

He immediately gave the order to activate the causal jump again and escape from here.

However, Su Yu withdrew the order the next moment.

Because he has realized what that horrible thing is.

That is his goal, the original universe!

The battleship faithfully brought him back to the vicinity of the original universe without any other accidents.

But Su Yu did not expect that the primitive universe he was familiar with was so terrifying that he dared not approach it and only wanted to escape, let alone enter.

Su Yu felt that going inside this thing would be tantamount to seeking death.

"Hehe, how do you feel right now?"

The voice of the cosmic undead sounded.

Su Yu's face was gloomy, and he asked, "Do you know what happened?"

The Cosmic Undead smiled and said, "Sure enough, it seems that you went outside the universe by accident? I haven't seen you before?"

It did not directly answer Su Yu's question.

Su Yu said coldly: "Stop talking nonsense, forget it if you don't want to say anything."

Hearing Su Yu's impolite words, the Cosmic Undead stopped talking nonsense and said directly: "If that's the case, then I'll tell you!"

"The universe you came from has extremely brutal instincts. It will hunt and devour other universes in its nothingness. And it will not let go of any dead or alive, even the remains of a destroyed universe."

"In the endless time, it has no idea how much it has swallowed, which makes its size grow bigger and bigger, even bigger than infinity."

“But a lot of darkness and distortion has also accumulated because of this.”

"How can the universe be so easy to digest?" "You said before that the human empire has declined? Haha, decline is normal! In such a distorted universe, normal civilization cannot exist. It will only decline more and more!"

"When there is no 'food' in this universe, it will devour itself, devouring the life and civilization that arises within it."

"Do you feel that strong malice? You are also the one being devoured!"

It seemed that the Cosmic Undead had been holding back these words for a long time, and now blurted them out all at once.

Su Yu looked at the terrifying creature outside the warship, and his expression slowly returned to calm, no longer as gloomy as before.

He began to understand why the universe was so dark and twisted before.

So many terrifying evil gods were bred in the depths of the Warp, leading to all kinds of disasters.

The entire universe seems to be extremely hostile to any living being.

It turns out that this is because this universe has swallowed up too many other universes, which may be debris, undead, etc.

The real universe has too good an appetite and has eaten too many messy things, making its essence increasingly dark and distorted.

Just like the cosmic undead that Su Yu is sealing now, it is already twisted and dark enough.

If it is swallowed by the original universe, its distorted darkness will become part of the real universe.

To put it bluntly, the original universe is like a monster that feeds on corpses and undead. The more it eats, the crazier it becomes.

I guess the subspace and evil gods all came about in this way, and were "eaten" bit by bit.

The evil god's immortality is very similar to certain traits of the cosmic undead.

Su Yu suspected that the subspace and evil gods might be some changes that occurred after the real universe swallowed up the remains of other universes.

Maybe some kind of "digestion" method?
Of course, all this is just Su Yu’s guess, and the details are unknown.

Moreover, the most important issue facing Su Yu is not to study the origin of the evil god.

But in such a dark and twisted universe, does Su Yu really want to go back?

What will happen after returning? Will I really be devoured as the cosmic ghosts said?

Su Yu thought for a moment and came to the conclusion, which is... there is a high probability that nothing will happen!

After all, he was so close to the real universe at this time, almost face to face, but he was not attacked by it at all.

It is probably because Su Yu is too weak for the entire universe, not worth mentioning at all, and not worthy of being noticed by the universe's devouring instinct.

Of course, Su Yu’s previous departure from the universe, this behavior of “running away after owing debts” will definitely have certain consequences.

However, Su Yu brought back a "feast" to the original universe, that is, the cosmic undead.

Logically speaking, this thing is much more "delicious" than Su Yu's.

Su Yu brought back the cosmic undead, which was more than enough to make up for the debt he owed.

"Do you still want to go back now?"

At this time, the cosmic undead asked again.

Su Yu sneered: "Of course!"

Although the real universe is terrible, it is also an extremely wealthy and generous "creditor".

All of Su Yu’s previous energy was “borrowed” from the universe.

If Su Yu wants to continue to improve himself and obtain more energy, materials, and information, he still needs to go back and continue "borrowing".

Anyway, the real universe does not lack Su Yu.

Although the borrowed energy and materials must be repaid with life in the end.

But Su Yu didn't care. He just tried to find a way to "escape the debt" or pay it back with other things.

Otherwise, where would the normal energy and matter come from in this void to allow him to improve? Could he also hunt those cosmic undead?

But Su Yu's encounter with the battleship was just luck. Where could he find more cosmic undead?
What's more, to be honest, Su Yu didn't know how to "eat" this cosmic undead.

It would be better to let the original universe "repay the debt".

"So, in essence, I am also constantly devouring and absorbing various energies, matter, and information. The only difference between me and the original universe is the size of our appetite."

Thinking of this, Su Yu felt a little relieved.

He had previously developed fear and prejudice towards the original universe because of his own perception and the words of the cosmic undead.

But now if you think about it carefully, there is actually nothing wrong with the original universe devouring other universes.

If the universe is regarded as an extremely powerful creature, then it is just "hunting".

As a human being, Su Yu also eats and devours other creatures.

If viewed from the perspective of some microorganisms, Su Yu is also an extremely terrifying behemoth, and his various digestive and absorption behaviors are extremely twisted and dark.

But in Su Yu's opinion, all this is just normal survival behavior.

Thinking of this, Su Yu's prejudice against the original universe suddenly disappeared.

Of course, there is still normal fear.

Also, the real universe devours other universes, and in this process, it is estimated that countless creatures have died.

How cruel is cosmic extinction?

But Su Yu has no right to blame or hate the real universe.

The universe is not a person, not even a living thing. Is Su Yu going to talk about moral issues with the universe? That would be ridiculous.

There is only one possibility that would give Su Yu the qualifications and position to accuse the original universe of hatred.

That is... what happened to the space-time universe that Su Yu was in before he traveled through time? Was it also swallowed up?

After thinking for a while, Su Yu decided not to hesitate anymore, but ordered the Fear Intelligence to start the battleship and return to the original universe!
Following Su Yu's order, the causal engine started again, approaching the universe whose true appearance could not be seen.

This time it was not a long-distance jump, but a slow movement.

"Sure enough, you are the same..."

When the cosmic undead saw Su Yu starting the warship and preparing to return, he sneered and said no more.

At this moment, it is about to be swallowed up by the real universe, and no one knows what it is thinking?
Or is he planning some conspiracy?
While Su Yu ordered the warship to approach the real universe, he was also on guard against the sudden explosion of cosmic undead.

But the cosmic undead has not made any move and seems to have accepted its fate.

Su Yu felt that the unknown giant was getting closer and closer to him, and finally, it completely enveloped him.

Finally, Su Yu’s eyes went dark and then bright.

When he woke up again, he found himself and the entire battleship suspended in a dark vacuum.

It is not the absolute nothingness outside the universe, but the real four-dimensional space-time.

At the same time, Su Yu sensed a familiar subspace!
“Is this…back?!”

Su Yu was delighted.

After going through all kinds of hardships, he finally came back!

"Is this the interior of the Devourer?"

Before Su Yu had time to figure out where he was, he heard a voice.

Su Yu's face suddenly looked a little strange.

Now that they have all come back, why are these cosmic undead still here?
