Ding Meng was astonished, but the singularity was even more astonished. His tone sounded as if he was sighing with emotion. "This spirit body's master chose you for a very deep reason."
Ding Meng asked, "Why?"
The singularity said, "You are an origin ability user, and at the same time, a fluxer. In the human world, those who possess both abilities are extremely rare. From the perspective of civilization, you need several centuries of development before you can produce someone like you. From my scan, there is a substance similar to blood green coral in your body. This is an extremely rare and precious spirit item in the universe. It is very difficult for it to fuse with life forms, especially high-level life forms. On the contrary, the success rate of its fusion with low-level life forms is relatively high …"
Ding Meng and Xiao Ai listened quietly, not even daring to breathe loudly. So the K-virus was created from this "blood green coral".
The singularity sighed and said, "The Creator is just that mystical. Although he bestowed talents and resources to high-level civilizations, he also bestowed opportunities and hope to low-level races. Thus, the Creator is always fair. Blood green coral is especially suitable for silicon-based life forms like you, but even so, the success rate of its fusion is pitifully small. However, you succeeded. It's no wonder that the spirit body's master chose you."
He had basically deduced most of the secrets on Ding Meng's body.
The singularity continued, "The strange techniques you cultivate are all strange techniques that only the royal family of the Mou Planet can possess, but you were able to cultivate them and even cast the ninth origin. This is the legendary" Nine Heavens Star River Art ". It seems that the spirit body's master not only had a deep relationship with you when he was alive, but he also had high hopes for you. You can be considered half a Mou Planet …"
He seemed to be mumbling to himself, "I understand now. So the master's prophecy was about you."
His words left Ding Meng dumbfounded. There were many unsolved mysteries about the K-virus, but he explained them clearly in a few words.
Ding Meng became humble. "Then, Mister Singularity, if I want to restore the spirit body imprint, may I ask what I need?"
The Singularity suddenly laughed. "That's impossible!"
Ding Meng lowered his stance. "The owner of the spirit body is very important to me. Even if I have to sacrifice myself to help her recover, I am willing to do so. You just have to tell me the method, please!"
The light of the singularity flickered as if it was observing Ding Meng. After a long time, it sighed and said, "It seems that the relationship between the owner of the spirit body and you is beyond the scope of consciousness. Since you are so determined, I don't mind telling you that with your current weak ability, it is almost impossible for you to restore him."
Ding Meng asked, "Why?"
The Singularity explained, "You should know that the spirit body itself is a fragile form of energy. It needs a corresponding force field or a body to continue existing. With the current level of human technology, I have calculated that the spirit body can only be replaced by a mechanical body. Moreover, you have to ensure the energy source of this mechanical body. Although the spirit body of my race can attach itself to more types of things, it requires an extremely large amount of energy. With your current strength, you are considered outstanding in the human world, but in the Mou Xing race, you are not worth mentioning."
Ding Meng hesitated. "You mean to say that my personal strength is not strong enough?"
The Singularity said, "In theory, that is indeed the case. However, personal strength is also one of the conditions. If you did not cultivate the" Diamond Star Art "and the" Diamond Star Fusion Art "to refine secondary and tertiary essences, the spirit body would not have been able to continue existing in your body. At present, it seems that the spirit body previously relied on your Origin Energy to exist..."
He paused for a moment before continuing, "If my judgment is correct, your Origin Energy was too weak when you first started cultivating. The spirit body could not be considered a true spirit body in the true sense of the word. It was probably after you constructed the eighth origin that the spirit body truly awakened and gained its own independent consciousness."
Ding Meng hurriedly said, "That's right. That is exactly the case."
The Singularity said, "There are only two situations in which the spirit body will fade into the spirit body imprint state. The first is when the host suffers a fatal attack. However, you said that the spirit body faded for your survival. That leaves only the second situation. The spirit body sacrificed itself to unlock the energy source of my race's Divine Light Technology."
Ding Meng sighed and said, "That is indeed the case."
The Singularity said, "How much energy did you receive back then?"
Ding Meng smiled bitterly and said, "I really have no way of calculating that."
The Singularity changed its tone and said, "How about this. Describe to me what you used that energy source for?"
Ding Meng pondered and said, "I injected it into the drive furnace of a mid-grade starship and then activated a wormhole to perform a space jump. I was randomly teleported to a place at least 200 light years away, which is this place."
The Singularity's tone sounded as if it was very surprised. "In other words, this energy source was used to strengthen the starship's defenses and withstand the chaotic cosmic storms in the four-dimensional space. For a mid-grade human starship to dare use Divine Light energy to travel 200 light years, it is truly a miracle that you are still alive. This … wait a moment, let me do some calculations …"
Ding Meng did not dare to say that the Fuuma True Expedition was an outdated product of the Federation from decades ago. If he said that, even the Singularity would be shocked.
After a long time, the Singularity said, "Let me put it this way. The amount of Divine Light energy you came into contact with back then was at least three times more than what I have here. Just now, you absorbed less than 1% of the energy you used to forge the origin in your body in the plaza. You must reach the equivalent amount of Divine Light energy that the spirit body unlocked back then. Only then can you fulfill the first condition of restoring the spirit body."
"This …" Ding Meng and Xiao Ai were both dumbfounded. In other words, his strength had to be increased by 300 times. Roughly speaking, he would be at least at the level of a high-level Battle-Saint.
The Singularity seemed to know what he was thinking and took the initiative to say, "This is the difficult part. The lifespan of a human is short. Even if you continue to absorb energy and refine it, it will be very difficult for you to live to that age."
Xiao Ai said, "Ding Meng, according to the certification standards of the Federal Empire, you are already at the level of a Warlord."
Ding Meng understood what she meant. He had activated the anti-gravity force field and cultivated for ten years before he was promoted from an intermediate Battle-Master to a beginner Warlord. In other words, it was only three years. In between, there was still the gap between an intermediate Warlord, an advanced Warlord, a beginner Battle-Saint, an intermediate Battle-Saint, and an advanced Battle-Saint. If the difficulty of promotion was factored in, he would need at least 80 years. By then, he would be over 100 years old.
It must be known that Ding Meng was the king of cultivation speed in the Holy Grail Federation. If it were a normal Origin Ability user, they would not be able to reach that height even if they cultivated for ten thousand years.
The Singularity said, "Of course, we can't rule out the possibility that you will obtain an opportunity to advance by leaps and bounds. If this condition is true, you will need to cultivate your Diamond Starfusing Art to the realm of perfection before you can restore your spirit body."
Ding Meng frowned. "Does the realm of perfection refer to the realm of martial arts?"
The Singularity disdainfully retorted, "Your understanding is too shallow. From this, it can be seen that your usage of the Starfusing Mystic Technique is still at a primitive stage."
If it were anyone else who said this, Ding Meng and Xiao Ai would have immediately slapped their faces. However, the Singularity was still a member of the Divine Light System. He definitely had his reasons for making such a judgment.
Ding Meng did not get angry. Instead, he humbly asked for guidance. "I'm still a little confused. Please enlighten me, Mister Singularity."
The Singularity sighed. "Alright, since you are also trying to restore your spirit body, I will explain it to you. Human Origin Ability users should be able to externalize their Origin Energy, right?
You guys are using this in battle to create offensive or defensive effects. I want to say that this is really amateurish. "
Ding Meng curiously asked, "What does the true externalization of Origin Energy look like?"
The Singularity said, "Origin energy is the true energy of this universe. It can create origins, incubate life, and transform the world. It can be said to be omnipotent. By the same logic, Origin energy users who absorb it should be able to do the same. For example, if you're a thermal Origin energy user, the origin energy you release should at least be in the form of light and fire. When you cultivate to a certain level, your origin energy can take the form of magma, true fire, electromagnetic radiation, and so on. Origin energy can take the form of solid matter. For those experts from the Great God Civilization, when they release their origin energy, it will be in the form of a blazing sun. Not only can they destroy powerful enemies, but they can also nurture life. They are the true kings of the universe. When they release their origin energy, they can even form a star system or a sea of stars. When they release their origin energy, they can extend for hundreds of thousands of light years or even millions of light years.
Ding Meng was dumbfounded. "How is that possible?"
The Singularity said, "How is it not possible?
You are just ignorant. I can give you another example that you can understand. In the human world, there is a substance that you guys call the inverse Origin Crystal, right? "
Ding Meng nodded and said, "Yes, that is a precious cultivation resource for Origin Energy users."
"Precious cultivation resource?!"
The Singularity laughed disdainfully. "Let me tell you, the things you guys treat as treasures are trash in the eyes of the Mou Civilization. They are just like the sand on Madison. What use can they have?"
Ding Meng smiled bitterly and said, "Of course. After all, you guys are an advanced civilization."
The Singularity said solemnly, "I do not mean to look down on your human civilization. It is just that your knowledge is too shallow and narrow. Gold should be a relatively common substance in the universe, right? If you humans want to explore gold mines, you first have to determine the location of the mine, then excavate the passage, collect the ore, clean the dirt on the ore, and finally use machinery to extract and refine the pure gold. Of course, you can also modify and process the gold into exquisite ornaments, right?"
Ding Meng could only nod.
The Singularity laughed again. "Let me tell you, your so-called inverse Origin Crystal is just the dirt on the surface of the ore. In those advanced civilizations, they do not want this dirt. What they want is the gold in it. That is what is really useful to them. As for the dirt and sand, how do they deal with it?
That's why you'll often find so-called inverse source crystals near low-level civilizations in the remote corners of the universe. That's the garbage abandoned by god-level civilizations in the universe and eventually drifted to your region. "
Hearing up to here, Ding Meng was truly shocked to the extreme.
