Chapter 2986 The Other Half of the Fuxi

It was very likely that the so-called ’emperor’s tomb’ had not been established by the Supreme Emperor but modified by him based on a vast primeval relic. Such a speculation was not a secret among the three major forces of the Pangu Universe.

The primeval relic that the Supreme Emperor used as his mausoleum was most likely the largest of all, with the most secret treasures and the most advanced technology. It even involved the mysteries of the four-dimensional universe and was the final resting place for countless Pangu Clan members. Therefore, it was also known as the ‘Divine Mausoleum’.

Naturally, a lot of marvelous weapons from the primeval era must’ve been sealed inside the mausoleum. The fully-armed fleet of the Pangu Clan, such as ‘Kunlun’, the most advanced starship of the Star Glory Federation, might have dozens or even hundreds of them.

If that was the case, it was not strange that ‘Fuxi’, a super artificial intelligence of the primeval era, considered the tomb of the Supreme Emperor to be a must-have target.

“Although there is not much evidence, the assumption does explain the strategic purpose of the Fuxi Clan.

Li Linghai looked around and further analyzed. “Otherwise, it will be hard to explain why the Fuxis gathered all the elites of the Star Glory Federation and attacked the Empyrean Terminus Sector in full force. It seems that they are trying to finish everything in one battle.

Yes. The sea of stars was too vast for a war between two superpowers to be decided by a single battle.

It was quite wrong to say that ‘Empyrean Terminus’ was the heart of the imperium, because the imperium was too large and many worlds were self-sufficient. The imperium had more than ten hearts, and the Empyrean Terminus Sector was the biggest one.

In the worst case scenario, even if the surprise attack of the Fuxis won the war and the Empyrean Terminus Sector was occupied, so what? Would the entire imperium surrender or collapse?

It was impossible.

The cruel social structure of the Sanctuary had determined that the Immortal Cultivators and the vast majority of the ‘original human beings’ were mortal enemies. Not to mention the fall of the imperial capital, even if the imperium lost half of its territory, the remaining half of the Sectors would not give up resisting. The revolutionaries and the families of the four electors would not raise a white flag to a bunch of cold puppets and fight until there were no soldiers left.

However, since the elites of the Star Glory Federation had been dedicated to the assault on the imperial capital for a thousand years, they would suffer heavy losses even if they won the war. How could they cope with the protracted war of attrition?

It must be noted that the rear of the Holy Alliance had run out of fuel and was on the verge of collapse. Was the entire strategy of the Fuxis all about ‘death after a moment of gratification’?

Obviously, it did not make sense.

Then, adding the ‘Ancient Tomb of the Supreme Emperor’ into the equation would be much more reasonable for the strategical purposes of the Fuxis.

Maybe, for Fuxi, the most important target from the very beginning was not the imperial capital but the Mausoleum of the Supreme Emperor.

Fuxi only had part of the primeval crystal processors under his control. Its database was incomplete. The coordinates of the mausoleum had been lost for a long time. He could not find it even if he wanted to. Therefore, it came up with the battle plan to attack the capital city. On one hand, it was going to cover up the fact that it had broken into Li Linghai’s crystal processor and stolen his secrets with the carpet bombardment. On the other hand, it was also going to stall the main force of the imperial army so that the imperial army would not have time to deal with the anomaly of the Mausoleum of the Supreme Emperor. In other words, the outcome of the ‘battle of the imperial capital’ was not that important. Even if the war was quite intense, as long as the Fuxis found and opened the Mausoleum of Gods, inherited all the heritage of the Pangu Clan, including an intact primeval fleet, would anybody be a match for it?

Of course, Fuxi did not expect that the federation would send reinforcements all of a sudden, not to mention that two weirdos, Li Yao and Lu Qingchen, would show up. It was quite a pity that they were annihilated before their ambitions blossomed.

Although the Fuxi perished in the sea of stars, Lu Qingchen had inherited most of its memory pieces and databases. Therefore, he had received the coordinates and the way to open the tomb of the Supreme Emperor.

For Lu Qingchen, who was like a stray dog when there were only five supreme fortresses left, the only possible counterattack was self-explanatory.

“So, Lu Qingchen went to look for the Mausoleum of the Supreme Emperor?”

Ding Lingdang asked on behalf of everyone, “Is there any evidence?”

“Yes.”

Li Linghai said, “About half a year ago, I vaguely calculated the possible location of the entrance to the Tomb of the Supreme Emperor and sent unmanned scout ships to several coordinates.

“However, at that time, there was still a lot of data that had not been calculated yet. The range of the coordinates was very large, and it was impossible for my scout ship to cover all of them. It was not until recently that the range was reduced and the final entrance of the ancient tomb was determined.

“Then, one of my scout boats detected traces of radiation similar to the sailing of the five supreme fortresses and was destroyed shortly after the data was sent back.

While talking, Li Linghai sent the data of the trajectory of radiation sent back by the scout ship to the crystal processors of all the experts.

The data had been analyzed and verified by various experts. There was no doubt that it was true. It was indeed one of the five supreme fortresses of the Star Glory Federation.

“So, at this moment, while we are in the meeting, it is very likely that Lu Qingchen has entered the Mausoleum of the Supreme Emperor?” Ding Lingdang frowned harder and harder.

“Hard to say.”

Li Linghai explained, “The entrance to the ‘Ancient Tomb of the Supreme Emperor’ is very strange and dangerous. It is at the intersection of two nebulae. It is full of intense interstellar radiation, cosmic storms, and stone belts that are affected by the storms. Even a fleet of a large scale might be crushed at any moment.

“It is still unknown when the entrance to the ‘Supreme Emperor Tomb’ will appear in the three-dimensional universe and how wide it will be.

“Therefore, we are not sure how far Lu Qingchen has progressed and whether or not he has entered the Mausoleum of the Supreme Emperor. “I said that it was a catastrophe for the entire Pangu Universe not only because of that but also because of Lu Qingchen’s purpose. “Lu Qingchen’s purpose?”

Ding Lingdang was dazed. “Isn’t he looking for the legacy of the Supreme Emperor or even the fleet of the Pangu Clan?”

“That’s true, but not entirely true.

Li Linghai took a deep breath and calmed himself down. He smiled bitterly. “Other than that, it is very likely that he is going to look for a second Fuxi.

Hearing that, everybody was dazed.

“What?”

Li Yao’s and Ding Lingdang’s pupils constricted at the same time. The two of them said at the same time, “A second Fuxi? What do you mean? Isn’t there only one super artificial intelligence of the primeval era? Is there a second super artificial intelligence of the same model? Why-why is it in the Mausoleum of the Supreme Emperor?”

This time, Li Linghai did not answer. Instead, he looked at Wen Wen.

Under everyone’s astonished gaze, Wen Wen slowly walked out.

Although she still had the appearance of a seven or eight-year-old doll, her pretty, tender little face had a bit of Wei Qingqing’s sacred temperament, which was like a secluded orchid in an empty valley. It even had a bit of an inhuman feeling

After staying in the hinterland of the Sanctuary Alliance for half a year, she was more and more like a real ‘goddess’.

Everyone looked at Wen Wen with a complicated expression. Many Cultivators and Immortal Cultivators found it hard to accept such a new life form. Their eyes were full of wariness.

However, in the face of the so-called ‘calamity’, they all chose to keep their mouths shut and listen to what the information contained.

“If you have a detailed understanding about the rise, expedition, civil war, and destruction of the Pangu Civilization in the primeval era, you should be very clear that, since the great expedition out of the Pangu Universe, there have been two super artificial intelligences named ‘Fuxi’.

“At that time, the Pangu civilization feared the multiverse and the ultimate flood beyond the black wall. They feared that a larger, more advanced starship fleet would be the source of chaos. Therefore, they sealed and castrated themselves on purpose, including the super artificial intelligence ‘Fuxi’.

“Some of them are still carrying out their previous missions dutifully and maintaining the operation of the Pangu Civilization.

“As for the other half, they were sent to a special place to study the mysteries of the Black Wall, the multiverse, the Flood Tide Legion, and the Flood Tide. The place was the base of the ‘Builders of the Black Wall’, the pivot that controlled the Black Wall. In the classics of the primeval era, it was known as the ‘Black Tomb’.

“Later, the remaining half of the super artificial intelligence participated in the civil war of the Pangu Civilization and was bombarded by logic bombs from both sides of the civil war. It further mutated and triggered a certain degree of self-awareness. After tens of thousands of years of fermenting, it awakened and became the Fuxi who established the Sanctuary Alliance. You all know what happened to it.

“However, half of the Fuxis are still sealed in the ‘black tomb’. They should not have been jammed by the random logic bombs and special commands. They are still standard ‘weak artificial intelligence’ and are quite ‘pure’.

He paused for a moment and looked around. Then he smiled and tapped his temple with his pink finger.

“Over the past few months, I’ve analyzed the remaining data pieces of the Fuxi and found some very interesting information.

Wen Wen said, “As it turned out, the half-Fuxi that stayed outside and awakened their self-awareness desired to swallow the half-Fuxi that was sent into the ‘black tomb’ for research the most.

“It’s not strange at all. They are a whole in the first place, and they are man-made. If they can be melded together again and awaken their self-awareness, I’m afraid that they will be the most perfect Fuxi.

“No wonder the Fuxis would exploit the entire Sanctuary Alliance and wage a final war at any cost. Indeed, the entire Sanctuary Alliance is insignificant compared to the other half of the Fuxis.

“Although the Fuxi is dead, Lu Qingchen has been reborn and evolved in a certain sense. Of course, he has to carry on his ‘last will’ and swallow the other half of the Fuxi inside the ‘black tomb’.”
