Chapter 173. Attempting to Explore Nothingness
In a pure white world, Ji Yuan, Gu Yi, and Odin sat side by side, opposite Robert, who looked restrained and puzzled.
"Did you two figure something out?" Ji Yuan asked.
"No." Gu Yi shook her head. "I didn't find anything wrong with his soul, and there's no sign that his memories have been altered or sealed. Are you sure his memories have been blocked?"
"I don't see anything wrong either. To me, his soul is very pure, almost unbelievably pure. As for the time issue you mentioned, I don't see it either." Odin spread his hands and shrugged.
"Then this is a rather big problem." Ji Yuan rubbed his chin, his eyes looking unreadable.
In his perception, Robert's soul had gone through an extremely long period of time. Combined with what Kahn had said about reincarnation, he guessed that Robert had also gone through reincarnation and retained his memories, but they were sealed away.
But what the Ancient One and Odin saw was completely different from what they saw themselves. What they saw was an ordinary soul, at most relatively pure, without any special restrictions or anything like that.
And there's something really creepy: Ji Yuan can see the memory lock, but he can't break it.
After careful research, it was discovered that the memory blockade he saw was just an illusion; the real node was not in this universe, or more precisely, not in the multiverse.
Rather, it is outside the multiverse, in an unknown place, a place that is at least inaccessible at present.
The situation reached a stalemate, and Ji Yuan's plan to learn more secrets from Robert failed.
He thought for a moment and asked, "Robert, have you had any strange dreams or experienced anything bizarre over the years?"
Robert pondered for a moment, then looked at Ji Yuan with a slightly embarrassed expression. "Whether in reality or in a dream, the strangest thing I've ever encountered is you."
Indeed, looking back, Robert's bizarre experiences included being recruited by the Star of Light in his dreams and personally arriving at the Star of Light. Apart from that, every day was a struggle to survive.
Ji Yuan's question gave him a strange sense of tension. An emotion welled up in his heart, an emotion of not wanting to be treated as an outsider. This emotion was inexplicable, but it made him feel inexplicably afraid.
Robert's thoughts were completely clear to Ji Yuan, who couldn't help but shake his head. Robert was very sensitive now, afraid of losing things and afraid of being looked at differently.
"Robert, you don't need to be upset. Perhaps you have some abnormalities, but that will not change the fact that you are a member of the Star of Light. We on the Star of Light do not have the kind of discrimination you imagine."
After some comforting words, Ji Yuan realized that Robert's heart had calmed down. This was what made the Sentinels special: immense power and an extremely fragile heart in comparison.
Theoretically, such an existence is easy to get out of control, but Robert's willpower is also top-notch in a sense. His light personality has long suppressed his dark personality, which is the void that is the two sides of the Sentinel.
While nothingness is the dark side of the Sentinel, it can also be considered an extreme cosmic energy entity.
If the Sentinel's Light Personality represents protection, then the Nothingness Personality represents destruction.
For every person the luminous personality saves, the nihilistic personality will use its power to destroy just as many, creating a forced balance between creation and destruction.
Although the Light Personality usually suppresses the Void Personality to prevent the birth of disaster, each use of power further strengthens the Void Personality until the final explosion.
Ji Yuan also truly felt the existence of the ethereal personality, but the Sentinel did not. In his more than thirty years of memories, there were no superpowers, no ethereal personality, only unbearable pain and a heart of light hidden beneath the pain.
Perhaps all the secrets lie in nothingness?
Ji Yuan stretched out his hand, and a unique light emanated from it.
The Ancient One and Odin were immediately drawn to the light. The light looked the same as ordinary light, but they could sense that the will emanating from it was completely different.
This light represents a strong sense of hope and the infinite possibilities of life.
This is the "Light of the Fittest," representing Noah's hope and infinity. It slowly merges into Robert's body, or more precisely, into his luminous personality.
Robert actually has three personalities: the very insecure Robert himself, the Sentinel who champions justice, and the dark and evil Nothingness.
The Sentinel's strongest form is the Trinity, which combines human restraint with heroic power, yet remains unaffected by destructive forces.
The Sentinels of Light can naturally accept this "Light of the Fittest," which is Ji Yuan's purpose: to use their power outside the balance of opposites to break this balance and thus cause the void to riot.
Nothingness will not be content to be suppressed forever. The Sentinel, with its additional power, will only continue to suppress it, leaving it no chance to turn the tables. This will inevitably provoke fierce resistance.
This is exactly what Ji Yuan wanted, because nothingness exists within Robert's body, but it is deliberately hidden. If you want to know what secret it is, you need to force it out.
As for what kind of nothingness will cause irreparable disaster after it emerges.
There's no need to worry. In the universe, Ji Yuan fears nothing, let alone a suppressed void.
As the "Light of the Fittest" merged, a twisted sense of contradiction appeared on Robert's face, revealing three different expressions on one face.
"What's wrong with me?" Robert felt an unparalleled power within him, as if he could punch the universe apart, while at the same time he felt a twisted destructive urge to destroy everything.
In his daze, he sensed the presence of two other "selves," a feeling that was both bizarre and undeniably real.
"As expected." Ji Yuan smiled knowingly. The Void Personality couldn't resist, while the Light Personality, as always, wanted to completely expel the Void Personality.
He said gently, "Don't be nervous, Robert. In a sense, the two beings you feel are yourself, only a little extreme."
And don't be afraid or resist. I will enter your consciousness and have a proper "communication" with another, evil version of you. Whatever you see, don't worry about it; it's all reasonable and normal.
"Huh? What—what do you mean?" Robert looked bewildered. Everything that had happened today felt completely foreign to him, and he felt like he didn't understand himself at all.
You'll find out soon enough.
Ji Yuan smiled and said something, then transformed into a beam of light and entered Robert's body.
This is a dark world, a gathering place for all negative energy.
A dark shadow looked at Ji Yuan, who seemed out of place in the dark world, and his voice was hoarse and evil.
"You shouldn't be in this universe!"
