“Has it already started?”

In the distance, under the Golden Dragon Tree, Chen Heng stood alone, feeling what was happening to Philip in the distance. He could not help but feel a little absent-minded.

Chen Heng knew very well what was happening to Philip. There was nothing he could do. After all, this was his clone. In theory, it was a part of him. Chen Heng naturally knew very well.

To prevent the main body from being affected by the initial gate, he purposely used the simulator’s power as a buffer, separating them by one layer. However, the current situation was still enough for Chen Heng to feel it.
Chen Heng had also made some guesses about the situation behind the initial gate. It was not that he did not have the slightest understanding of it. He would not have allowed Philip to step into the initial gate if not for that.
‘Iwas not sure before, but now I can finally conclude…

Chen Heng sighed in his heart. ‘Behind the initial gate, is there the consciousness of this world?’

The world had its consciousness. This was something that Chen Heng had already understood many years ago. As for the situation behind the initial gate, Chen Heng had roughly understood it through his previous research and the Black King’s explanation.
‘That was the core region of the world, containing the origin power of this world. The reason a king was precisely because he had engraved his brand in that space.

In theory, as long as he carved his brand into that space, even if he died, there was still a glimmer of hope that he could revive and return. This was why the Black King could still return even though he had fallen for countless years.

As his brand existed in the initial space, even though countless years had passed, it had not completely disappeared. This was why there was the hope of revival.

‘The Twilight Knight among the Five Knights was still in the transformation stage because he was stuck. The mark belonging to the Black King remained on the initial stone tablet.

Due to the obstruction of the Black King’s mark, the Twilight Knight’s transformation speed was so slow. Even after such a long time, the transformation had not ended, and he had yet to turn into a king.

And in that initial space, there was the most powerful and purest force in the world. According to Chen Heng’s previous guess, if there were a consciousness in the world, it would exist in that space.

And from the current situation, that was indeed the case. Chen Heng already had a premonition that Philip’s clone would probably lose control very soon.

His guess had only two results when his real body entered the initial space. His body couldn’t withstand the baptism of the power within the initial space and directly collapsed, or he could withstand the baptism of the world origin energy and become even more powerful.
According to Chen Heng’s estimation, if Philip could withstand the baptism of that power, then even if he were temporarily unable to break through to the king level due to time constraints, his combat power wouldn’t be much weaker.

If he were to digest that power over time completely, he would probably become the strongest person in this world. Even those so-called kings would not be a match for him.

Becoming stronger was a good thing. However, the disadvantages were also very obvious. From the previous situation, enduring the power of the initial space was essentially a process of approaching the world.

Previously, just opening the initial door and receiving part of the power of the initial space was already such a serious phenomenon of assimilation. If one were to enter the initial space directly with their true body, it would be imaginably negative.
It was almost impossible for a mortal body to resist the erosion and assimilation of the world’s power. They would be directly affected by the power of the initial space and get closer to the world.

Even Chen Heng did not know what would happen if it reached this stage. There was a possibility that he would lose his last bit of rationality and become a puppet.

There was also a possibility that he would be influenced by the world consciousness and become the world’s representative, acting on behalf of the world. All kinds of possibilities existed.

Chen Heng was also very curious about this final result. However, the worst outcome did not happen in the situation before him. Philip’s body did not collapse. Instead, he directly withstood the pressure and began to absorb the power of the outside world to strengthen himself slowly.
Chen Heng could feel the changes in Philip’s body. The degree of change was extremely powerful. Even his main body was affected. An invisible feeling surged out.

It was Philip’s enlightenment in the initial space. The initial space contained all the laws of this world. It was equivalent to an entire world’s information being opened up for one to comprehend.

Under such circumstances, even if one didn’t deliberately comprehend and cultivate, all sorts of enlightenment would spontaneously appear in one’s mind and even directly explodes you.

Chen Heng’s main body also shared a bit of nomological insight from Philip. If not for the timing being not right, Chen Heng would have wanted to find a place to go into seclusion and cultivate directly.

“The situation is still quite suitable…’

Chen Heng resisted the urge to comprehend silently. Just as he had expected, the connection between him and Philip was weakened after entering the initial space, but not by much.

Another consciousness began to occupy the dominant position in Philip’s body. That consciousness was extremely vast as if it represented the entire world. It was incomparably bright and powerful, as terrifying as an ocean.

Before this vast consciousness, Chen Heng’s consciousness was almost like a firefly competing with the bright moon. There was no comparison at all. But thinking about it carefully, it was indeed true.

Chen Heng’s self-consciousness was indeed strong. Even if it was the high and mighty Five Knights, their self-consciousness might not be stronger than Chen Heng’s.

But to compete with the consciousness of an entire world was just asking for humiliation. How could the strength of an individual be compared to the world?

Chen Heng estimated that if those gods from the World of Gods came, perhaps they could still compete. But for him, it was better to forget about it.

Strictly speaking, Chen Heng’s connection with Philip was not weakened. It was just that it was much weaker compared to the newly formed connection.

To put it another way, it was the difference in the control authority. The original Chen Heng was using the power of the simulation to control Philip’s clone.

Even though Philip’s clone had been severely eroded by the power of the initial space and had lost all self-awareness, as long as Chen Heng gave the order, Philip’s clone would follow it without any hesitation.

But now, it was equivalent to one more person controlling Philip’s clone. And his authority was even higher than Chen Heng’s. At this moment, Chen Heng, as the controller, although he could still control Philip’s clone, he could not defy the other authority. And that other authority was undoubtedly the
world consciousness of this world..
