Counterattack System appeared when I'm already At The Mahayana Realm - Chapter 224: Dream Comes True in Life

After Jiang Li put on the holographic simulator, Bai Hongtu noticed subtle spatial fluctuations, deducing it was the spatial channel for transmitting information.

He took advantage of spatial manipulation to widen the narrow spatial channel, leading Jiang Li through the space to the other end.

Bai Hongtu felt that the two ends of the spatial channel were millions of light-years apart. He was relieved by Jiang Li’s method, doubtful how long it would take using his own idea of mobilizing the whole nine realms of the Body Integration stage.

Arriving at the galaxy where the Ga Moran civilization was located, Bai Hongtu looked astounded.

“I’m getting a bit fed up with my current world and thinking about a reboot. How about trying a different world, Brother Jiang, any suggestions?”

“How about a former military king returning to the city, hiding his identity, and pretending to be a nobody?”

“Good idea.”

Du Ming and Jiang Li were leisurely strolling in a weapon store where the shopkeeper was a lively short-haired maiden, with a well-stuffed chest.

“So how about her liking you? Or should we not bother with that? It’s kind of weird how realistic the inhabitants of this world are, are they real?”

“Well, Feitian Corporation did a fantastic job. They took a hundred years to collect the data and created virtual personalities, everyone in a small world is a virtual persona.”

“Not to mention, since they’re virtual personas, I can alter their attributes at will.”

Du Ming then led Jiang Li to visit a friend’s world.

A hundred-meter-tall monster rose from the water. Humans scattered in fear just as a giant appeared out of nowhere to battle the titan.

The giant struggled against the monster, gradually losing strength.

Fortunately, at a crucial moment, the giant gained new power. According to Du Ming, it was a form of strength transformation.

After a hard battle, the giant finally defeated the horrendous monster.

“My friend is a fan of superhero dramas. He never gets bored with this kind of plot and has always wanted to be a hero of such a drama. Now he finally got his wish. That’s why some people call Feitian Corporation’s holographic simulator as the dream fulfillment device.”

“Sounds good.”

Du Ming’s friend nodded in greeting before he led Jiang Li to another friend’s world.

In this friend’s world, he had gifted himself special abilities like body enhancement, x-ray vision, and flight. With these abilities, he remained at school, studying and living in a vague relationship with the school’s beauty and other pretty girls from outside the school. The atmosphere was always a bit ambiguous.

Whenever these beauties encountered trouble, like bullying from hooligans, he would use his abilities to help solve their problems and win their favor.

Leaders and business owners knew of him as an extraordinary talent and showed him great respect. Whenever anyone looked down on him, these people would always step in to defend him.”

“My friend enjoys playing ambiguous relationships, switching between the beauties without defining any relationships. Personally, I think he should follow my lead, change the law and allow polygamy.”

Jiang Li disagreed with Du Ming’s perspective, shaking his head: “If he likes it that way, why force him to think like you?”

“Fair point.”

The two then arrived at another world, where a blinding white light suddenly appeared, followed by a terrifying heat that filled the space. Countless particles spread out, forming planets.

If it wasn’t for the protective barrier, they would have been dead.

Naturally, they wouldn’t die in this simulated world.

“This is the creation of a new world.” Du Ming was familiar with this scene. Normally, he would choose to modify someone else’s template to change the world, saving time and energy. But sometimes, he even created universes from singularity explosions out of sheer curiosity.

“Was the universe really formed by a singularity explosion?” Jiang Li was puzzled.

“Who knows? Scientists say so. But who can say for sure? They previously said that the universe was formed by a singularity explosion, then changed their mind and claimed it was created by deities, then change it again claiming it appeared out of nowhere, and finally, back to singularity explosion.”

Du Ming shrugged, “All of these are theories, none too reliable. What we’re seeing now is also theoretically based. Who knows what’s the reality? I’ve heard that the quantity formed from a singularity explosion doesn’t match the reality, a problem Feitian Corporation couldn’t resolve. So, they just made this scene into a transitional animation.”

Jiang Li nodded approvingly. According to the elder immortal, no one, not even the Immortal Realm, knew how the universe came about. Yet, here was this non-descript Ga Moran civilization with such knowledge. Just how advanced is their civilization?

Now it seemed to him that he might have overthought it.

After the universe exploded, time accelerated. A planet soon emerged, giving birth to human-figured life.

Logically, humanoid life wouldn’t appear so soon, but the owner of this small world redefined the rules, allowing humanoid life to emerge.

The owner of the small world descended upon the primitive humans, displaying his power. The primitives worshipped him as a deity.

The primitive people were enlightened by the deity and learned transcendent power, becoming the Transcendents.

“Playing deity again?” Du Ming made fun of his friend.

“It’s not that. I’m simply using my wisdom to guide them forward. Maybe that’s how our ancestors opened their minds!” The deity of the primitive people glared at Du Ming.

“I thought you visited my world because you like creating worlds. If I knew you thought this way, I wouldn’t have let you in. Go away, do not disturb me.”

The deity of the primitive people displayed a miracle and threw Jiang Li and Du Ming out.

Under Du Ming’s introduction, Jiang Li experienced a variety of small worlds.

Some went back twenty years in the past, created a huge industry with their vision beyond the times.

Some returned to ancient times, changed history, and became heroes in legends passed down through generations.

Others came to a nonsensical world, first fought and leveled up in the Yellow Realm, broke through limitations to the Xuan Realm, continued to fight and level up even further, and advanced to the Earth Realm, Heaven Realm, God Realm, Holy Realm, Supreme Realm…

Some even faced catastrophe: returning to ancient times to start a rebellion and become rulers. Seeking authenticity, they didn’t grant themselves any superpowers. In the end, they were captured by the ancient emperor and their clans were exterminated. Desperate, they forcefully took over by using their authority to successfully rebel.

“So, have you thought about the kind of world you would like to create?”

Feeling enthused, Jiang Li was eager to create his own world. Just as he noticed Bai Hongtu’s message, he bid goodbye to Du Ming and logged out from the simulator.

“Let me tell you, this Ga Moran civilization is fascinating, I can get you a holographic simulator so you can try it too.” Jiang Li proposed mirthfully to Bai Hongtu.

“Really? Do you still find the Ga Moran civilization interesting after seeing what’s in front of you?” Uncharacteristically, Bai Hongtu stopped jesting and pointed down with a serious expression on his face.

Following Bai Hongtu’s gaze, Jiang Li took in the scene beneath them. His joyful demeanor instantly evaporated replaced by a look of shock.

Coffin-like black boxes were neatly aligned as far as the eye could see. Inside these black boxes were people, each of them hooked up to a holographic simulator, their bodies were shriveled and soaking in a blue solution. Despite these conditions, they had blissful smiles on their faces.

But they were all dead.

Jiang Li saw a name tag on one of the boxes.

Du Ming.

Who, then, was he talking to just now?
