Chapter 927 The Immortal Project!

(PS: I'll update twice on Saturday and Sunday. I've been so tired these past few days, running between the hospital and home. Luckily, my parents-in-law are helping out. I'll update twice on both Saturday and Sunday to catch my breath.)
"impossible!"

"There can't possibly be any surviving original beings!"

When Wu Pifu's information was sent to the central government by Mazda, the entire central government leadership was shaken. In addition to the measures mentioned above, a highly secretive organization hidden within the government also immediately began internal discussions.

“We all know that the lifespan limits of the physical body, mental consciousness, and spiritual essence are different. The physical body has the shortest lifespan, followed by mental consciousness, while the lifespan limit of the spiritual essence can be as long as a cycle of lifespan, which is close to that of a multidimensional universe. But no matter what, there is a limit, right?”

In a virtual private channel, dozens of men, women, and children gathered together, and a middle-aged, refined-looking man was speaking loudly.

Occasionally, a few individuals would enter the hidden channel, but the middle-aged man continued to speak.

“All of us here today are fifth generation, while the previous generation, the fourth generation, aged and died rapidly in the first hundred years of their initial manifestation. Even if we used all our strength, we could not save them. Therefore, the relationship between our original creators, the second, third, and fourth generations, and us, the fifth generation, is not a simple relationship of procreation, but a relationship of spiritual inheritance. Do you understand?”

As the middle-aged man finished speaking, another woman wearing glasses chimed in, "Yes, in the Ark, spirit particles are conserved. Pure spirit particle essence cannot actually reproduce. The so-called second and third generations are the process by which the spirit particles of the previous generation are recombined into new life after the previous generation's essential structure is completely annihilated. So, the first generation here refers to the entire process of a life composed purely of spirit particle essence aging and dying over a long period of time."

This information was common knowledge to everyone present, but upon closer listening, it still left them utterly silent.

After the original multidimensional ark left the universe, it stayed in the gaps between universes for an unimaginably long time. This time was so long that the first, second, third, and fourth generations of original beings all died out, and even now, the fifth generation only numbers a few thousand. You can imagine how long this time was.

"Therefore, I do not believe, and it is absolutely impossible, that there are any other surviving original beings!"

The middle-aged man shouted loudly.

Those present didn't actually believe it either, otherwise they wouldn't have rushed to participate in this meeting. After all, their plans and actions violated the joint resolution of the other thousands of Fifth Generation members. If there really was a second Primal Being, and a Primal Being who could act, then their plans and actions would be meaningless.

Unexpectedly, a little boy timidly raised his hand and said, "Excuse me, I have a question... Why are the Primal Creators so important? Uh, I know about our organization's plan. There is a fragment of the Primal Creator's essence that has not completely dissipated. It seems to be a fragment of a chosen one from a multidimensional universe called the Immortal Clan. We want to revive him, but... isn't he just the most ancient ancestor? Why are we so concerned about the Primal Creators?"

Everyone around looked at the little boy with strange expressions. The middle-aged man's face changed, and he shouted, "Who are you? This is the first time I've seen you. Who are you?"

Everyone became wary. At this moment, a young man patted the boy on the shoulder and said to the others with a wry smile, "Excuse me, this is the one I brought. He is a sixth-generation... a rare sixth-generation."

Everyone around was stunned for a moment before they finally showed expressions of understanding.

The Ark endured a long period of time. When the fourth generation was about to be completely annihilated and the fifth generation had also gone through an extremely long period of time, it encountered a drastic change in the entire universe, which led to the current situation. After the fifth generation manifested as physical life, most of them aged and died rapidly, leaving only a few thousand fifth generation. The sixth generation was actually born in very small numbers during the Ark phase, but their numbers were far fewer than those of the fifth generation. However, they were different from the new generation after taking on physical bodies and could be considered as members of the ancient beings, but their status was rather awkward, and their numbers were far fewer than those of the fifth generation.

The people around him relaxed slightly, but they all gave a wry smile when they looked at the boy.

The woman with glasses asked, "Were you asleep the whole time?"

The boy scratched his head and said, "Yes, I was asleep for about fifty years. For the past fifty years, I have been adapting to my physical body and solving the problem of being in a dreamlike state. It was only in the last two or three years that I was able to move around completely."

The woman wearing glasses looked at the middle-aged man and said, "Then tell this little guy the details."

The middle-aged man was somewhat reluctant, but seeing the boy's eager eyes, he softened and nodded, saying, "Alright, let me give you a general overview... First, we need to be clear that we are no longer in the Ark. Due to the renewed effects of flesh, matter, energy, and technology, as well as the failure of the conservation of spiritual particles caused by the reproduction of the new generation, to be precise, spiritual particles have begun to grow again. All of this indicates that we have arrived in the universe, rather than in the closed Ark environment."

The boy nodded, and the middle-aged man thought for a moment before continuing, "Do you know what the biggest project the government has been working on lately is?" The boy immediately replied, "The Rebirth of the Extraordinary?"

The middle-aged man affirmed, "Yes, it's the reappearance of the extraordinary... We are not the original beings, not the first people from the multidimensional universe, but we can be considered their inheritors, their descendants. According to the civilization, technology, extraordinary power, and other strengths inherited by the multidimensional universe government, we should possess unimaginable power. As long as we go to the real universe and can have a physical body, we can immediately change the world and continue to develop from an unimaginable height, right?"

The boy immediately exclaimed excitedly, "That's right, that makes sense, and I thought so too before, but..."

"But we have not demonstrated such great power."

The middle-aged man sighed and said, "This was actually anticipated by our ancestors and us. Due to the differences in the rules of the universe, the origins, and the underlying structures, the same technology, extraordinary abilities, and powers may not be compatible. However, we were still confident that we could quickly recover our power after adapting to the underlying structure of the new universe, until we arrived here..."

"This is not the new universe that our ancestors and we envisioned. The Ark did not find a new universe, nor did it lead us to colonize the universe. In fact, we encountered events that are difficult for us to understand and imagine... What exactly is this place? What is our current state? What exactly is the eyeball of the universe? All of these are unknown. At the same time, according to the judgment and analysis of the thirteen main control systems that have been separated from the main brain, everything in this world, this universe, is changing, uncertain, and has a completely distorted underlying structure. Apart from the thirteen regions judged by the thirteen main control systems, all other regions present a dreamlike and hazy state. Our technology, our supernatural abilities, and all the substantial power we inherited from the multidimensional universe can only be partially reproduced in these thirteen regions, and even then, it requires a continuous consumption of spiritual particles."

Seeing the boy's increasingly surprised expression, especially when he heard about consuming spiritual energy, his expression even began to distort.

The middle-aged man understood his feelings perfectly.

Spirit particles are the essence of the soul and the essence of all life on the Ark. The Ark is a closed environment where spirit particles are conserved. Any consumption of even a tiny bit of spirit particles means that a life is torn to pieces or subjected to torture similar to being minced meat.

The middle-aged man continued, "However, the situation is slightly better because, due to the reproduction of the new generation, the spiritual particles are not completely conserved, but are beginning to increase. The spiritual particles consumed by the thirteen main control systems are also dissipated spiritual particles. At least in this respect, we are not yet in dire straits. However, the situation is getting worse. Apart from the thirteen regions, the outside world is full of malice towards us. Nightmares are the most direct manifestation of this malice. Although we can still resist now, this is based on the continuous consumption of spiritual particles. We cannot defend forever. We need to develop, we need to restore the glory of the multidimensional universe, so... we need power!"

The boy seemed thoughtful, then asked with a hint of doubt, "So it's...extraordinary? Right? There are extraordinary beings in the multidimensional universe, right?"

"That's right!"

The bespectacled woman beside him couldn't help but explain, "The multidimensional universe is a general term for countless dimensions. It includes god-level civilizations whose technology has reached the realm of gods, as well as near-universe-level powerhouses who have reached the pinnacle of transcendence. As for why it's transcendence and not technology, he has already explained it to you. Technology requires a solid underlying structure, accumulating step by step. First, we don't have enough time, and second, the underlying structure here is uncertain. Therefore, technology cannot reproduce the glory of god-level civilizations for the time being. But transcendence is different. Transcendence is not widespread among the masses, but it can create super-strong individuals who are most adapted to the environment. In this situation, having a super individual to protect us is enough to help us get through our current period of weakness!"

The boy suddenly realized, "So, the original being you're planning to resurrect is a super-extraordinary individual from a multidimensional universe!?"

"No, you said it wrong."

This time, it wasn't the bespectacled woman or the middle-aged man who spoke, but the young man who brought the boy. He patted the boy on the shoulder and said, "Not 'that,' but all of them. To be precise, we only discovered after we were born that the older the individual and the fewer generations they have, the more terrifying their power becomes when they achieve transcendence. If there is a primordial being still alive, no matter what they were in the multidimensional universe, even if they were an ordinary person in a world without magic, they would instantly become an unimaginable super-transcendent individual, anyone!"

"The terror of time is enough to destroy everything known, including the multidimensional universe and the multidimensional universe collection. But similarly, the accumulation of time will also bring terrifying power that we did not know before. Even you, the sixth generation, can become an unimaginable terrifying existence in an instant as long as you leave the judgment area of ​​the Thirteen Main Control System. Of course, the premise is that you can control this power and not have your mind destroyed by the supernatural in an instant."

The boy was taken aback, while the middle-aged man nodded simultaneously, saying, "That's right, we've tested it, and more than once... Aside from requiring strong mental control, as long as we leave the thirteen main control system's judgment zones, we will instantly possess extremely terrifying power. However, this power is still not as great as the most terrifying beings in the outside world. According to the records we have from our time in the multidimensional universe, the power of the sixth generation is roughly at the stellar level, the power of the fifth generation is at the galaxy level, and the power of the fourth generation has already reached the total galaxy collection, or even the spiral arm level. This is power that increases exponentially, and according to our estimates..."

"If any of the original beings still survive, then once they transcend, they will be able to surpass the strongest transcendent beings in the multidimensional universe records, reaching the true multidimensional universe level, or even higher. For transcendent beings at this level, they might even be able to rival, or at least contend with, that terrifying giant eyeball outside!"

"And that's our plan!"

"To kill in order to survive, using ninety percent of the current new generation's spiritual particles as sacrifices, to resurrect the remaining fragment of our original essence—a being among the most powerful in the multidimensional universe, a supreme being called the Immortal Race, and this plan is..."

"Project Immortal!"
