From Abyssal Invasion to Bursting Stars with a Single Sword-Chapter 915 - 530: Civilization Restart

The Abyssal Giant Beast was slain, bringing the Abyss Battlefield to an early conclusion.

The merfolk summoned to Blue Star completed all their tasks in just ten days.

Lu Heng prepared some gifts for Sarian to take back to High Priestess Sona.

In dealing with the Abyssal Giant Beast, the Human think tank proposed an alternative plan to prevent the beast from hiding in the forest to hunt.

Now that the Abyssal Giant Beast has been defeated, this plan is no longer necessary.

The Elf Team invited from Quel’dorei did not engage in battle with the Abyssal Giant Beast but served other purposes.

The Elf Clan planted Golden Tree Seeds on the plains of Blue Star’s major continents, helping humans resist the pollution from the Abyss.

After the Golden Tree Seeds sprouted, Seren left instructions on caring for the Golden Tree Seedlings and then returned to the Elf World.

The Abyss Demon Nest incident reached a conclusion after the Abyssal Giant Beast’s death, but the matter of the Reincarnation Source Material is not yet entirely resolved.

Having experienced this event, Lu Heng gained a deeper understanding of the Star Realm Merchants.

After a deep conversation with Azik, he officially represented the Star Realm Merchants in joining the Sword Holder Alliance.

Due to the Star Realm Merchant Civilization joining the Sword Holders, the Zero Civilization is in a delicate situation.

Lu Heng has already become a demigod, no longer easily manipulated by the Zero Civilization.

Thus, facing Lu Heng, the Zero Civilization can no longer rely on the demigod standing to compel him to act for them.

And the missing piece of Reincarnation Source Material is now in Lu Heng’s hands.

On the night Azik joined the Sword Holders, a white light representing the Zero Civilization appeared.

Now, the white light from the Zero Civilization can no longer restrict Lu Heng’s actions.

Lu Heng gazed at the source of the white light, and with demigod vision, he could see the reason for the light.

The white light is not a living being; it is a form of energy projection from the Zero Civilization to other worlds, appearing as light.

To put it simply, the Zero Civilization does not actually appear in other worlds but projects their will as energy to other worlds.

Lu Heng looked at where the white light was projected and asked, "What do you want to say?"

White Light: "The Reincarnation Source Material is in your hands."

Lu Heng nodded in response: "Yes, it’s in my hands."

White Light: "According to our previous agreement."

The Reincarnation Source Material possesses the power to reverse time, a strength whose magnitude cannot be measured by ordinary value.

However, Lu Heng currently has no immediate use for this power.

Lu Heng did not promptly return the Reincarnation Source Material to the Zero Civilization, as he contemplated whether to disrupt their developmental stagnation.

"Are you sure you want to enter the next cycle?"

White Light: "Yes, only by entering the next cycle can the civilization continue."

Lu Heng: "What significance is there in continuing such cycles?"

White Light: "Choosing survival over death is significance in itself."

From the perspective of civilizational survival, the Zero Civilization’s answer was indeed correct.

The Zero Civilization has repeated this cycle 267 times, like a constant cycle and a replay of a film, depicting the process of this civilization rising from nothing to its peak, then returning to zero.

The Zero Civilization had once stated they were not doing nothing.

They used 267 cycles to prove the invincibility of the Abyss.

Lu Heng, from their 267 cycles, realized how difficult it was to confront the Abyss, perhaps even impossible to defeat it.

However, facing the Abyss requires seeking possibilities in the impossible.

Lu Heng was unsure of success from the beginning, but he would strive for any possibility available.

The Zero Civilization failed 267 times, but that doesn’t mean failure will repeat at 300, 1000, or 10,000 cycles.

Moreover, the Zero Civilization’s failure does not dictate that other civilizations will fail too.

A civilization hiding in cycles, afraid to emerge, cannot defeat the Abyss, which is not surprising.

Lu Heng took out the Reincarnation Source Material and placed it mid-air, stating: "You may reclaim the Reincarnation Source Material, but I have a request."

White Light: "Go ahead."

Lu Heng: "I need all the data from your 267 cycles."

White Light: "The Reincarnation Source Material resets everything to zero, returning all matter to its original state, so no physical material is preserved after each cycle."

Lu Heng shook his finger: "The 267 cycles figure itself is a legacy. If no information is retained, how do you know it’s 267 times?

"If you want back the Reincarnation Source Material, provide me with all the data.

"Giving these materials isn’t particularly harmful to you; I just wish to understand the Abyss, and that’s it.

"Your inability to defeat the Abyss doesn’t mean I can’t.

"If someday I succeed, it would be a liberation for your civilization."

White Light: "Alright. I agree to your request, but each cycle retains very limited information."

After negotiating, Lu Heng exchanged the Reincarnation Source Material for the data from each cycle of the Zero Civilization.

The Zero Civilization’s retained data indeed contained minimal information, only recording major events in the civilization’s development.

cycles over more than ten thousand years, repeating the same civilizational processes.

From the very inception of civilization, existing as light quantum consciousness, progressing step by step to advance the civilization, increasing energy totals and civilization level.

With the birth of the Zero Civilization, the Abyss erosion concurrently occurred.

Abyss erosion accompanied every phase of the Zero Civilization.
