Chapter 785: 771 Visiting the Void Demon
Riding a rather inconspicuous small spacecraft, Nan Ma had crossed tens of thousands of light-years in the boundless starry sea all alone. He knew that even colleagues like Bo Na and Xue Jiu, who were pilgrims, couldn’t compare to him in terms of initiative and execution. Although they had come to this super-giant fishbowl to hunt Bai Zhongqi with him, they were filled with opportunistic attitudes and dared not take risks.
This hunt for Bai Zhongqi wasn’t something Nan Ma had decided on; from the beginning, he felt that even if it cost the pilgrims a huge amount of energy to stage a cosmic new birth through the merging of galaxies and to deal with someone like Bai Zhongqi, who had countless tricks up his sleeves and was obviously very lucky, it wouldn’t be easy at all.
The solution given by the upper echelons of the pilgrims was to use the Galactic Emperor. Nan Ma couldn’t see through the Galactic Emperor and didn’t understand why the upper echelons were willing to use him and believed there would be no aftermath. However, when the Galactic Emperor had disappeared without a trace in the galaxy, the second Swarm devoured the entire Star Warrior Sect like a tonic, giving birth to a bunch of self-aware Insectoids. Now, the forces the pilgrims could actually use themselves had become negligible.
In this way, even if Bai Zhongqi could not unlock this universe’s blockade, he would still live well here and might find them, the pilgrims, and wipe them out completely.
“The Holy Judge prophesied that if Bai Zhongqi is allowed to continue developing, the day he frees himself from his fate will be the day of the total destruction of the Pilgrims. That’s why we are trying to eliminate him at all costs. Judging from the rate at which Bai Zhongqi’s power is growing, this prophecy may very well be true. However, facing such a crisis of extinction, high-ranking leaders like the Holy Judge and the High Priest still can’t throw caution to the wind. Instead, they hesitate and dare not risk their own life spans to confront him, resulting in the current situation.”
“I don’t know how far Bai Zhongqi’s struggle with the Swarm disaster has progressed, he has suffered a bit this time, but whether the Swarm can develop to the extent of destroying him is still uncertain. If more power of the disaster can be gathered, there may be some hope,” Nan Ma thought to himself.
But regardless of which disaster, none were ones he could easily negotiate with. He took out an eyeball-like gem from his body and said mockingly, “It looks like I can only place my hopes in this now.”
This item was a gift from Nan Ma’s teacher in his early years, back when he was not yet estranged from his teacher. Called the Eye of the Void, it was rumored to be the most revered object by the Void Demons, once used by a powerful pilgrim to command thousands of Void Demons and establish the now phony world.
But no one had been able to use the Eye of the Void since then, and it had become nothing more than a revered but useless relic in the hands of the pilgrims. Actually, the pilgrim capable of using the Eye of the Void had been killed by a celestial collector previously.
Nan Ma didn’t know if he could control the Void Demons, but it was his only hope now.
The star region where the Void Demons existed was no longer suitable for the existence of ordinary civilizations. It was full of spatial rifts and fragments, and a spacecraft could very easily crash into these rifts if navigated poorly, completely destroying it.
Nan Ma navigated this area with extra caution, and was also carefully searching for traces of the Void Demons.
And just as he ventured deeper into the area full of spatial rifts, he suddenly felt an uninvited guest aboard his spacecraft.
Nan Ma’s hand condensed a sphere of light, which was materialized Star Energy. If unleashed, its power could at least be comparable to a warhead of over 100 WM.
When he finally saw clearly the three figures in front of him, Nan Ma took a deep breath.
“I have been waiting for you for a long time.”
These three “people” were like silhouettes of smoke, as vague and intangible as the universe itself, yet they radiated dazzling colors. The one on the left was blue, the one in the middle yellow, and the one on the right green. Their heads seemed to be detached from their bodies, floating above, with three vertical “eyes” that were inconsistent from left to right.
The three “people” didn’t speak; what they wanted to convey was directly transmitted to Nan Ma’s consciousness.
“You, in your hand, what we desire.”
Nan Ma flashed his characteristically nonchalant smile, caressed his bald head, and flicked open his palm to reveal the gem-like Eye of the Void.
The moment the Eye of the Void appeared, the bodies of the three “people” suddenly started to flicker like flames.
“Give, to us!”
Nan Ma closed his hand, and the three “people” immediately returned to their original form, looking extremely disappointed.
“If you want it, you’ll have to work for me.”
The blue “person” on the left replied, “We do not have life; we are the Void itself.”
Nan Ma had always been curious about what exactly a Void Demon was. “So, you are individuals with consciousness born from the Void? But you have created technology and warships.”
The yellow Void Demon denied, “Not exactly, the technology does not come from the Void, but from the material world. The existence of eradicated lives and objects also leaves some traces in the Void. Thus, we, the Void Demons, were born—at least, that’s what you people of the material world call us.”
As they spoke, their communicative skills seemed to become more fluent.
Nan Ma said, “No matter what you are, I need your power. If you help me achieve my goal, I can give you this Eye of the Void.”
The green Void Demon responded, “If that’s what you want, we agree.”
Nan Ma couldn’t help but ask again, “I am going to have you confront the most powerful civilization in this universe. Facing them, you’ll likely die, even so are you sure you have no problem with that?”
“Void Demons do not have life, how can we die then? Losing consciousness is a blessing for Void Demons; it is actually difficult for us to die.”
Nan Ma further inquired, “All your warships are clearly material weapons, and as I understand, you of the Void only need to touch something to obliterate its existence. Why do you need warships then?”
The Void Demon said emotionlessly, “We detest the material world. We originally coexisted with the Void. However, when the galaxies merged, we were dragged into this material world. Both matter and existence cause us pain; we wish to destroy all of it, to create our Void. If your goal includes the destruction of this universe, making it return to the Void, then our objectives actually align.”
“These warships are the Void’s memory of material technology. In these warships, we can temporarily feel at peace. We are unable to increase these warships, but indeed, these warships possess powers far greater than most civilizations of the material world. Under our control, Void warships can launch Erase Beams, able to annihilate the existence of matter, making it also become Void. It is also through these Void warships that we’ve made this region largely survivable for us.”freeweɓnovel.cѳm
