I'm not a drama god

Chapter 1712 Lingxu Jun's Purpose

Just as Chen Ling was deep in thought.

Outside the half-collapsed Akash Tower, a commotion could be heard.

Those were the cries of the people of the Lingxu Realm after witnessing the tower they had painstakingly built collapse once again; those were the workers' bewildered questions, countless doubts and accusations, surging like a mighty tide towards the Lingxu Lord kneeling in the ruins…

Lingxu Jun remained kneeling there, motionless, until a sliver of hazy light pierced through the broken tower top and fell upon his shoulder, bringing a glimmer of clarity back to his empty eyes.

He slowly raised his head and looked up.

A tranquil and vast starry sky came into his view.

Upon seeing this starry sky, Lingxu Jun fell into a brief daze, and a familiar figure wearing a white coat appeared in his mind.

After an unknown amount of time, Lingxu Jun clenched his fists tightly.

Do not……

Now is not the time to concede defeat.

The confusion and despair in his eyes gradually faded, replaced by the unwavering resolve of "Lord Lingxu." He gazed deeply at the crumbling tower and slowly spoke:

"If it doesn't exist... then it doesn't exist."

"Since there is no database in the universe that stores all possibilities..."

"Then I'll just build one."

Boom-!

The moment Lingxujun uttered his last words.

The surrounding scenery transformed into countless streams of light and receded upwards once more, and Chen Ling's figure plummeted from the tower once more!

At this moment, he was still reeling from Lingxujun's last words...

What does it mean to "build one"?

The Akashic Records, aren't they the ultimate memory that stores the possibilities of everything in the universe? How could something like that be created so easily?

and many more……

Chen Ling seemed to realize something, and Lingxu Jun's words echoed in her mind again.

"Chen Ling, what do you think is the significance of mathematics?"

"...Mathematics itself does not exist; it is merely a tool invented by humankind to interpret the world..."

"...The meaning of mathematics is calculation, using intangible rules to calculate the development of the tangible material world, helping humanity to filter, deduce, and even predict."

At the time, Chen Ling thought Lingxu Jun's words were inexplicable, but now he thinks that perhaps he meant something.

The Tower of Akash has the ability to deduce the world. If this power is extended to the entire Earth, does it mean that... it can be regarded as an artificial Akashic Record that can deduce infinite possibilities?

Did Lingxu Jun rebuild the Tower of Akash for this reason?

Om-! !

When Chen Ling came to her senses, she was already back inside the tower.

Lingxujun's corpse was still kneeling on the spot, and waves of deep blue light spread out from his feet, faster and faster, as if some kind of power was flowing through his body and frantically into the tower!

Next second,

Lingxu-jun's eyes opened again!

Those were deep blue eyes, as if imbued with some kind of divinity. His gaze swept over Chen Ling, and then the empty body, devoid of a heart, slowly rose to its feet…

"you……"

Upon seeing Lingxu Jun "come back to life," Chen Ling's eyes were filled with utter horror.

He had seen his share of formidable enemies, but this was the first time he had ever encountered one that had been dead for quite some time and yet could still come back to life.

Lingxu Jun stumbled toward Chen Ling, bursts of dazzling light spreading from beneath his feet, sweeping across the entire Akashic Tower. Amidst the shimmering light and shadow, he laboriously raised his remaining arm toward Chen Ling...

“Chen…Ling…”

His hoarse voice reached Chen Ling's ears:

"I know...you hate me..."

"But I know what you're doing... and I know... what I'm doing..."

"Whether it's right or wrong... I have no desire to argue anymore... At least for now... I hope you can... stand on the side of humanity..."

With a flick of his finger, Lingxujun summoned a giant net constructed of electromagnetic energy from the edge of the imaginary world. To an ordinary person, the net appeared to be completely empty...

But in Chen Ling's view, the giant electromagnetic net actually imprisoned a series of illusory ghosts!

Su Zhiwei, the Clown, Hongxiu, Lü Liangren, the Farmer...

None of the souls of those who were killed by Lingxujun in the Imaginary World escaped from here. They were not absorbed into the Ghost Path, but were collected by Lingxujun and remained here!

Upon seeing this, Chen Ling's eyes lit up with surprise.

He immediately activated the red paper umbrella, taking all the ghosts into it. He had thought he would never have another chance to take them into the next world, so the current situation was undoubtedly excellent news!

From this perspective, it seems that Lord Lingxu had already anticipated Chen Ling's collection of ghosts, and despite his severe injuries, he left them all behind...

Lingxu Jun never initiated a war with anyone; his killing of these people was ultimately just to protect himself.

He absolutely cannot die at the hands of others... He has a more important mission.

Having taken away the ghost, Chen Ling's gaze towards Lingxu Jun finally softened somewhat:

"Wu Tongyuan, what exactly do you want to do?"

"I want to... create an Akashic Record, I want to... calculate the future where humanity defeats the Crimson Star!" A mad glint appeared in Lingxujun's eyes.

"Wen Ruoshui's ability can cover the entire Earth... So can I!"

"As long as I replicate the Earth one-to-one and perform the calculations, I will always be able to find the optimal solution..."

"However, the current Tower of Akash cannot do that... Only by merging myself into it can I possess sufficient computing power..."

"After that... I can only rely on you."

Chen Ling frowned: "...Rely on me??"

"I told you, this imaginary world... was built for you." Lingxujun continued to stagger forward.

"After I die, this tower will become the ultimate computer... but a computer always needs someone to operate it."

"Your power of denial can change the underlying code of everything... it can endlessly restart and search for vulnerabilities..."

"If this place is truly turned into the Akashic Records... then the only person in the world capable of accessing it and predicting the future... can only be you."

"Although your power of denial has not yet met my expectations... we are running out of time."

Lingxu Jun raised his finger and pointed to the void above.

In the deep space of the universe beyond Earth, a crimson meteor is rapidly approaching this place, even dyeing the entire sky red!

From the approach of the Crimson Star to the end of the battle between Lingxu-jun and Chen Ling, and now, the timing is perfect...

It was as if an invisible hand had arranged everything in advance.

"Chen Ling..."

"Squeeze every last drop of your potential, utilize this tower to its fullest potential..."

"The only person qualified to peek into that corner of 'possibility' and bring it into the next world... can only be you."
