Chapter 259: Destruction

The world fell silent.

In the sky, a formless night descended, causing everyone to look up.

There, a massive black hole had opened up, revealing another world.

It was a barren and destroyed world: Within the world, there were ruined structures, decayed paths, and corpses.

This was a strange scene that most people had never seen before.

In the past, only a few Awakeners had seen this strange scene before. Most people had been completely ignorant, and even if they were in an abnormality, they had no idea.

However, now, the end of the world was clearly displayed to everyone.

Just was that?

What was with those ruined structures and countless corpses?

Moreover, what was with that sorrowful feeling in their hearts?

At that moment, everyone looked into the sky, towards that somewhat-revealed city.

Looking at that scene, they were stunned as they thought of something.

“I seem to have…”

On the busy street, the girl from before looked towards the sky as a hazy look appeared in her eyes, “Died long ago…”

At that moment, she remembered everything.

The end of her life, as well as the massive hand that had covered the sky.

Indeed, at that moment, she finally remembered.

She was not a real, living person, and was already dead.

Without realizing it, tears flowed out from her eyes, falling onto her clothes.

It was not just her.

Right now, everyone in the world was looking up at the sky.

They did not feel shocked or afraid, feeling only a deep sense of loss and grief.

It was as if they understood everything, they gave up struggling and silently went through their memories, thinking back to the good times.

Those were their memories, the most precious things to them.

Some people said that everyone died; death was not scary, and when one was dying, they would think of their most precious things.

It was not just them; this was the case for Chen Heng as well.

Within Lin City, in an old alleyway, Chen Heng was in his room as he looked towards the sky.

He was just like everyone else and did not seem much different.

As the world came closer to death, all kinds of memories appeared in his mind.

Some of those memories belonged to the previous world, whereas some were from the other worlds. They were all quite rich and wonderful.

Compared to the other people of this world, Chen Heng’s experiences were incredibly amazing.

In the past, he had been the creator of an Empire and had unified an entire world before.

To ordinary people, this would be something that they would never experience in their lives.

Ahead of him, golden light continued to glow. As the world was about to collapse, the simulator seemed to still be going through changes.

Over the past few days, Chen Heng had considered going to other worlds to look for a way to save this world.

Even though the world was going to be destroyed, there were many worlds out there, and perhaps he would be able to find a way of saving this world.

However, as the simulator went through those intense changes, he could not use it at all.

Without the simulator, there was nothing that Chen Heng could do in this world.

He indeed had power that could rival a god, and no one in this world was a match for him.

However, facing the collapse of the world, he could not do anything and could only watch.

Chen Heng silently turned and looked to the side.

There, a mirror was hanging, revealing Chen Heng’s appearance.

He still looked most the same, but many wrinkles had appeared on his face, and his body looked somewhat withered.

He knew that in actuality, this was what his real appearance looked like.

After all, in the real world, this body of his had long since died, and he would have already become a withered corpse.

With his current appearance, he would be able to star in a horror movie.

Chen Heng’s expression was calm and silently waited.

As time went on, the changes became more and more intense.

Wind began to blow as the ground began to tremble.

In the distance, the sky split open as a massive hand appeared before everyone’s eyes.

Everything happened again just like in their memories.

As the massive hand appeared, the world began to collapse.

As more and more creatures woke up, this dreamscape began to disappear.

This world had been formed from many creatures’ thoughts and memories, and now that everyone’s memories returned, the dreamscape was collapsing.

Chen Heng lowered his head and looked at himself.

“My body… is disappearing…” he muttered as he looked at his body.

His body began to become transparent, like fog under sunlight.

Evidently, as this world disappeared, his existence was also disappearing.

After all, his body was not real and was just a trace of his thoughts.

In the previous dreamscape, a trace of one’s thoughts was enough to create a body.

However, that was not possible in the real world.

That which should disappear, would disappear.

Soon, the dreamscape completely collapsed.

With a bang, the final trace of light disappeared before darkness covered everything, including Chen Heng’s body.

At that moment, he could clearly sense the changes in his body.

The world had disappeared, but he still existed.

Even though he had lost his vessel, his body, with Chen Heng’s strength, he could maintain his existence temporarily even without a body.

After the dreamscape had shattered, he had returned to the real world.

In front of him was an apocalyptic scene.

Within the world, the ruins of the destroyed civilization’s structures stood there.

Corpses lay peacefully on the ground, maintaining the same postures as when they died.

As Chen Heng came to the real world, his body’s energy began to be drained.

“What is this…” he raised his head and thought to himself.

With his cultivation and strength, under normal circumstances, he could still absorb spirit qi to maintain his existence even without his body. He could even possess someone’s body and reincarnate.

However, in this world, his energy was being continuously drained, and he could not make up for it.

Everything in this world had died.

That massive hand had not only stolen away the lifeforce of the world but also the energy.

Spirit qi, lifeforce, sun…

Everything had disappeared, leaving behind an empty shell.

Even with Chen Heng’s cultivation, he would slowly die in this world.

As such, he had to leave before that happened.

Thinking to there, Chen Heng looked down.

Ahead, the golden light was still shining, and it was becoming more and more evident.

However, it seemed to change, and some words occasionally appeared.

“It’s time to leave…”

Standing there and looking at the darkness covering the land, Chen Heng made a decision.

Following this, he turned and began to try to use the simulator’s power.

This was his only chance at life.

Chen Heng could not leave this world and traverse to another world with his own power.

Just this already sounded quite difficult, and Chen Heng did not even know where to begin.

As such, his only hope was the simulator.

After this period of time, the simulator had gradually stabilized. Even though it had not finished transforming yet, it was still better than before.

If Chen Heng tried to use the simulator now, he might have a chance.

As such, Chen Heng did not hesitate and tried it out.

It was not that he did not want to wait until the simulator’s evolution finished; he simply could not afford to wait.

The world was completely dead, and staying here, Chen Heng’s energy was greatly drained every minute. He could not last long.

According to Chen Heng’s estimates, he would only be able to last for a few days at most.

He had to find a way to leave this world before then.

As such, he began to try.

Following this, the simulator’s interface appeared.

It was just that the text displayed was different.

“The world you are in has been destroyed. Would you like to reincarnate?”

Looking at those words, Chen Heng did not hesitate and confirmed.

After he confirmed, the words suddenly dimmed, but Chen Heng continued to stand there and had not left this world.

This caused Chen Heng to frown.

“Is it not enough?” he muttered to himself.

After reading the simulator’s interface, he understood the reason.

Anything required energy to operate.

This was the same for the simulator, and the energy it required was not anything ordinary.

Simulation Points were the energy used to fuel the simulator.

Chen Heng knew this a long time ago.

The Points seemed like they were rewards after clearing a game, but that was not the case.

From how Chen Heng saw it, obtaining Points was the result of him interacting with other worlds, and his influence provided the simulator with energy.

This was why Chen Heng would receive more Points when he affected a world more.

The Points themselves seemed to be a high-grade energy.

This energy could allow the simulator to operate, as well as allow Chen Heng to go to other words.

Right now, what Chen Heng lacked was that energy.

Before, he had gained more than 10,000 Points in the previous simulation.

This should be a massive number, and it should have been enough for Chen Heng to use extravagantly.

However, as the world changed, the transformation of the simulator devoured his Points, leaving him with only 5,000 or so.

It seemed that those 5,000 or so Points were not enough for him to travel to another world.

This put him in quite an awkward situation.
