"From now on, the plot will not be created by him, but by me."
"And he will never know any of this; his observation has reached its limit."
Fumeng understood the meaning and said faintly, "Do you choose to stay in the Primordial World, continue to conquer the ancient saints, and gather infinite energy, or retreat to the shallow sea, create a world, and completely lie flat?"
Fang Ming smiled slightly. Now that he was free, it was naturally up to him to answer this question.
"I choose..."
The content that followed.
The true author could no longer interfere.
Could no longer observe.
He didn't know how the plot would develop, nor what changes or actions the characters within would have.
The plot after the completion was beyond the author's control and was left to evolve freely.
...
The Void Sea.
In the lowest layer of the sea, a layer from which no further descent was possible, there was now only one world.
This was the headquarters of the Myriad Worlds Building.
Gu Xian'er's divine sense enveloped the entire Void Sea.
This was a sea.
The Sea of Void.
Except for a few existences that Gu Xian'er could not investigate, everything else, the past and future of the Void Sea, was known to her, an employee of the Myriad Worlds Building.
Gu Xian'er, as if sensing something, said, "He has lost his protagonist's destiny and protagonist's luck."
"In the Void Sea, past and future, how many people have lost their protagonist's luck? How many have lost their protagonist's destiny?"
"Every book has its end."
At the headquarters of the Myriad Worlds Building, there was a floor with a library.
Within it, the Master of the Myriad Worlds recorded numerous books.
Gu Xian'er first flipped through a book titled "Protagonist's Destiny and Protagonist's Luck."
According to the records in this book, the so-called protagonist's destiny and protagonist's luck were characters from a book written by an author in the True One Realm.
What was the essence of the protagonist's destiny?
It was not due to any other reason, but simply because the protagonist was the protagonist. Because he was the protagonist written by the author, he possessed immense luck, was invincible in every battle, and was unparalleled.
It was as simple as that.
It held no other meaning.
And when an author from the True One Realm completed or poorly ended their book, the protagonist's luck and destiny would directly disappear. As for what happened to the protagonist afterward, they would no longer follow the author's logic but would be truly free in this sea.
Gu Xian'er then read a book titled "The Truth of the Void Sea."
The Void Sea, as the name suggests, was a sea of illusion, a sea of fantasy. Its essence was fantasy, also known as the sea of consciousness of human beings on Earth in the True One Realm.
One by one, the world of works was distributed in this illusory sea. These worlds of works could also be called fantasy worlds, the fantasy worlds of the True One Realm.
Although the Void Sea possessed myriad wonders, it could never escape the values of human beings. Countless worlds of works were centered around human values, all of them.
It was nothing more than that, in the True One Realm, only humans were intelligent beings. If it were not centered around human values, what would it be centered around?
Everything was fantasy. Whether it was immortals or demons, the destruction of the universe, infinite multiverses, love and hate, or races like demons, witches, goblins, and all other non-human races, one could see traces of humanity in their thoughts.
Demons were called demons, but in reality, they were demons of human values.
Witches were called witches, but in reality, they were witches of human values.
Human imagination could never break through this limitation.
Because in the True One Realm, humans had never encountered other intelligent life forms in the vast universe.
The Void Sea was the combination of all fantasy works and all thoughts of human beings on Earth, throughout ancient and modern times.
An illusory ocean.
Gu Xian'er reread a book titled "How to Reach the True One Realm."
It recorded that no living being had ever been able to enter the True One Realm. Let alone enter, even to come into contact with it was impossible.
In ancient times, there were cultivators who traveled upstream in the Void Sea and eventually reached what was called the continent.
But even though they escaped from the sea and entered the continent, in reality, such a continent was merely the sea's fantasy of a true continent. It only had special properties in the True One Realm that could suppress ordinary beings of the Void Sea, but its essence was still fantasy.
No powerful being had ever discovered the trace of the true True One Realm.
All powerful beings, even those who claimed to have truly entered the real world, the True One World, had only entered pseudo-real worlds or pseudo-True One Worlds within the worlds of works.
In the Void Sea, there were too many powerful beings who claimed to have come into contact with the True One Realm, or even to have surpassed it, mastering illusion and reality.
However, in reality, the reality they mastered was merely the reality within the Void Sea.
This so-called power of reality within illusion was still a power of illusion.
The True One Realm, true and singular, could not be touched by illusory beings.
Gu Xian'er then flipped through a book titled "Detailed Explanation of the Origin of the Great Dao: With and Without Systems."
It recorded that in the True One Realm Earth, there were originally no systems. Therefore, the six True Saints stole the concept of "without systems" and ascended to the position of masters of the Origin of the Great Dao.
Later, novels with systems gradually became mainstream, and novels without systems could hardly survive. This was reflected in the Void Sea as systems gradually gained dominance. The six True Saints without systems were eliminated by the tide of the times, so the Master of the Myriad Worlds stole the concept of systems, enabling him to surpass the six True Saints.
This was because it was simply going with the flow.
The struggle between the True Saints and the Master of the Myriad Worlds was not as simple as the superficial struggle between the rules of the Primordial Flow and the rules of Wang Ba. This was merely the surface. The actual core pointed directly to the struggle between "without systems" and "with systems."
And the tide of the times had completely suppressed novels without systems in the True One Realm by novels with systems. When the great trend arrived, the Origin of the Great Dao also had to be replaced.
When would the third era begin? In this book, the Master of the Myriad Worlds left the answer: it would be an era that surpassed both "without systems" and "with systems."
Gu Xian'er flipped through a book titled "Is the Protagonist Truly a Transmigrator from the True One Realm?"
In it, the Master of the Myriad Worlds clearly pointed out that a large group of protagonists who claimed to be transmigrators from the True One Realm were not true transmigrators from the True One Realm at all.
They were merely protagonists written by some authors in the True One Realm.
The True One Realm they came from was also merely a pseudo-reality.
It was not the true True One Realm.
In the book "How to Reach the True One Realm," it was described that some cultivators traveled to the uppermost layer of the Void Sea and reached a world that completely dissolved their extraordinary powers. There, even seventeen-star powerhouses, even omniscient and omnipotent powerhouses with divine characteristics, had their extraordinary powers suppressed to nothing.
They all became mortals.
They believed this was the so-called continent, but this was not the True One Realm, merely a pseudo-reality that imitated the True One Realm.
Transmigrators mostly came from these pseudo-realities, and there were many such pseudo-realities, continents.
These were false continents, still within the sea, never having escaped the sea, and forever unable to escape the sea.
