"And civilization can greatly increase the complexity of the world, preventing the Abyss from devouring us!"
"A tiger's actions are quite predictable, nothing more than hunting and resting. Human behavior is not that much more complex, but when a group of people gather to form a civilization, when music, literature, and art are born, when the sparks of thought exchange and collide, it makes prediction exponentially difficult!"
"Human thought is vast and intricate, with countless ideas arising and influencing each other at every moment. Perhaps a sentence you saw unintentionally ten years ago, even if forgotten, may still be etched in your subconscious, affecting your actions ten years later. It's this tiny deviation that makes it impossible for the Abyss to fully predict us, and as long as it can't completely predict us, it can't devour us."
Qin Xiang's words left Ye Junlin somewhat puzzled and dizzy.
"For example, our world is a continuously evolving process. As long as the Abyss can grasp all parameters and replace us in evolving the process for millions of years ahead, it can devour us. But the emergence of civilization increases the difficulty for it to do so," Ye's father explained.
This time Ye Junlin understood a bit: "So civilization is the nemesis of the Abyss. We need to develop civilization as much as possible?"
"That's right," Qin Xiang nodded, "and we achieve this through the Proof of the Old Days."
"The Proof of the Old Days can only be obtained when a single world's contribution points reach over 50%, guiding an Awakened to go forth to the Old Days."
"The so-called Old Day refers to a civilization that has not yet been completely obliterated but isolated in another spatial dimension. When the flame of civilization dwindles to a certain extent but hasn't fully extinguished, the Abyss isolates it to prematurely devour the world."
"Individuals possessing the Proof of the Old Days are called 'Civilization Envoys.' By reigniting the flame of civilization in the Old Days, they can rescue that civilization from the Old Days. The emergence of civilization will allow the external world to completely break free from the Abyss and fall into our control."
"Only by collecting, expanding, and gathering these scattered flames of civilization to ignite a torch bright enough to illuminate the dark night can we hope to combat the Abyss!"
Qin Xiang's words made Ye Junlin understand completely.
The number of Awakened is too few, even if they occupied the Corpse Demon World, they are just a bunch of passersby and plunderers. It is impossible for them to propagate and thrive in this world to establish a civilization.
Thus, the local flame of civilization must be ignited to truly occupy this world.
"Civilization Envoys are extremely important. Besides restoring civilization, there is also a chance to find information on the upper-level being that destroyed this world in the Old Days."
"In battles among High Tier Awakened, intelligence is extremely crucial, hence the eight Celestial Kings have been nurturing disciples with the potential to become Civilization Envoys."
"But until now, there are only five. I just inquired, and that Dark Night Monarch is not a disciple of any top-tier awakened known to us."
"So, we must find a way to contact him!"
With that said, Ye Junlin fully realized the severity of the situation and nodded solemnly.
...
On the other hand, Chu Xiu, unaware that he had already attracted the attention of numerous big shots, returned to Blue Star.
As his body gradually solidified, he landed on the square.
Because he had lingered for a while in the Awakening Space, he returned relatively late, and by the time he returned to Blue Star, there weren't many people left on the square.
Then he saw Zhang Qingshan, who was running towards him excitedly.
"Ah Chu, you're alive!"
He shouted with surprise and joy, rushing over to give Chu Xiu a bear hug.
Chu Xiu was slightly stunned and then chuckled, "Is there any need to be so excited? I'm not that easy to kill."
Zhang Qingshan's eyes were slightly red: "I went to the stronghold before and couldn't find you, I thought something happened to you..."
Hearing this, Chu Xiu immediately understood.
Before, Zhang Qingshan must have intentionally searched for him when he returned to save the Support Profession, but naturally couldn't find him.
So in his view, since this Support Profession was not in the stronghold, he might have already perished in the Abyss, naturally making him extremely sad.
Yet perhaps due to not giving up, he waited for a long time on the square. Originally becoming more and more desperate as time passed, he unexpectedly saw Chu Xiu at the last moment, how could he not be excited?
Thinking of this, Chu Xiu couldn't help but be moved as well, and he apologized, "I'm sorry, I was unwilling to just be a Support Profession, so I sneaked out."
Zhang Qingshan patted Chu Xiu's shoulder: "As long as you're alright, whatever decision you make, I support you, Ah Chu."
Immediately, a smirk, both smug and mysterious, appeared on his honest face: "By the way, Ah Chu, guess what rank I got this time?"
Chu Xiu found it amusing but still pretended not to know, saying: "Seeing you this happy, your rank must be very high, maybe in the top three?"
"Second place!"
Zhang Qingshan exclaimed excitedly, "We were fortunate at the end, gaining a lot of points at once."
"You don't know, just when I was about to return, the Dark Night Monarch's demons suddenly surged up, almost scaring me! Fortunately, I was calm enough to analyze that the Corpse King's offspring appeared, triggering their vigilance."
"Even though the Dark Night Monarch's Corpse Demons were eyeing me menacingly, I still decisively launched an attack, taking people to eliminate all those offspring, successfully snatching a large amount of contribution points from the jaws of danger."
Looking at the animatedly speaking Zhang Qingshan, Chu Xiu couldn't help but chuckle.
