Phantasmal Genesis - Chapter 30: Evolving his subconsciousness
Meng Ke once suspected that his ability had the cheat of retardation, but he never had any proof.
But recently, he confirmed something.
Subconsciousness.
Within a human’s mind were their consciousness and subconsciousness, and it was true for Meng Ke as well.
His ability allowed him to wield minds, and that included their subconscious.
This was something Meng Ke recently thought of.
Rather than illusions, it was closer to deceit.
By constructing an illusion to fool humans, he could gain energy.
And through using this energy, he could gain power from frauding reality.
The universe did not contain any supernatural powers, but by fooling the universe, he was telling the universe that there were supernatural powers.
The aforementioned retardation cheat was done by connecting his subconscious with the target’s, and it steers the target towards the results he wanted.
Subconsciously, his target would act in the way he wanted.
But the scary thing is, Meng Ke wasn’t capable of controlling his own subconscious.
And that was why, he himself did not know of this ability of his.
If he subconsciously wanted a target to locate him, Meng Ke could stupidly cause his own demise.
After all, the subconscious was the true owner of its body.
“It’s good that I noticed this now, and if the subconscious was subservient to the mind, why not give the subconscious the ability to think for itself?”
It wasn’t impossible to combine his consciousness and subconsciousness, but Meng Ke didn’t want to do it.
Because he believed that his subconscious would deeply root into his consciousness, and from that point, he wouldn’t know if he would still be the same person.
His plan was to give his subconscious the ability to think, and then turn it into a tool for his consciousness.
This would greatly improve Meng Ke’s ability while lowering the risks to the lowest possible level.
After thinking it through again, Meng Ke started using his ability.
“My subconscious is subservient to me, its purpose is to help me attain infinity, and therefore it doesn’t require feelings.”
“She would have secondary priority access to my ability to create illusions.”
“However, I will be able to override her power, and this setting will never change, preceding everything.”
………
After laying down the rules, Meng Ke checked for the last time and started to construct this ability in his mind.
This ability required spiritual power, which was why he didn’t need too much of it.
Fueled by his energy, the ball of light that belonged to this illusion shone brighter as it became reality.
At last, the ball of light became reality, and a familiar, strange fluctuation appeared in this world. Half of it was left in Meng Ke’s body, entering his spiritual power as the other half vanished in thin air.
“My god.”
A line of information appeared in Meng Ke’s mind, it was a genderless voice that did not carry any emotion.
Meng Ke smiled, he knew he had succeeded.
In his design, God was the term his subconscious would use to address him.
God referred to the collection of all information, a being that could alter, preset and rule over everything that existed.
And there was only one god, it was Meng Ke.
He knew that he had succeeded.
“Are you a man, or a woman?” Meng Ke was curious.
This was something he couldn’t control, as Meng Ke was human, and humans had the concept of gender.
It was obvious that as Meng Ke’s subconscious, it was created with the concept of gender.
In just a second, a calm voice was transmitted into Meng Ke’s spiritual body.
“God, I am the collection of your subconsciousness, we are a collective existence, so I should be a man.”
“However, because you do not wish for a man to exist in your subconscious, I am a woman.”
“……”
Meng Ke nodded, he couldn’t deny what his subconsciousness was saying.
As a rational human male, just the thought of having a man living in his mind was……
Alright, Meng Ke couldn’t deny that he couldn’t accept it.
Even if it was his own subconscious!
That was why, his subconsciousness had to be a woman.
Afterwards, Meng Ke continued to ask, he needed to confirm if his subconscious’ presets were in accordance with what he had created.
And after the final question, Meng Ke finally let out a breath of relief.
His subconscious would gain strength as his spiritual powers did, and she would also learn and improve her comprehension and judgment from him.
She could take over the management of his phantasy, and with her high level of calculations, his phantasy game would truly start to become a real game.
She was essentially the central gaming system for a game, she could manage and record everything that happened in the phantasy, making the game more realistic.
At the same time, Meng Ke and his subconscious were one.
Because his subconscious was capable of observing everything in the phantasy, Meng Ke wouldn’t have to spend his days and nights collecting information.
He would give free reign to the phantasy, which in turn became experiences that his subconscious would obtain.
He would leave the phantasy to learn, and become an existence that obtains information, which would lead to the growth of his subconscious.
And whatever his subconscious learned, he learned.
And one day, once his illusions covered the entirety of reality, his subconscious would be capable of calculating anything, and truly become something akin to god’s will.
At that point, Meng Ke would truly become god, controlling the way of the heavens.
“I’ll call you Xuan Nv!” (Idk how to anglicize this.)
Having Xuan Nv allowed him to have a photographic memory, as well as a supernatural learning ability.
From this day forwards, whether it was something Meng Ke saw or the events in phantasy, any knowledge or martial skills would be recorded by Xuan Nv, and Meng Ke would be able to wield it.
This meant any and all knowledge in phantasy would belong to Meng Ke.
Of course, this required a storage ability of its equal.
And spiritual power was such an existence.
Gathering knowledge would increase his spiritual power, and increasing his spiritual power would broaden his spiritual space, connecting more and more people to increase his information gathering.
This was a cycle.
If the growth of his spiritual power was at 1, after obtaining Xuan Nv, his growth was 100 now.
And this growth would increase exponentially.
It would increase until Meng Ke had obtained every piece of information in this entire world, and end when there would be no more to learn.
At the same time, because of Xuan Nv’s existence, his testosterone strengthening did not require his own guidance with illusions anymore, it was now controlled by his subconsciousness.
Xuan Nv was capable of strengthening his body in the most precise and efficient way, and this task was best left to her.
