The Kunlun Mountains. Afternoon. 1 p.m.

Within a few hundred kilometers, countless airborne birds suddenly became frightened and began flapping their wings. As they took flight, the sound of a plaintive whine had covered half the sky.

At the same time, the cloudless blue sky above them that stretched tens of thousands of kilometers saw rosy, ribbon-looking clouds that looked like silkworms, and even broken cotton forming. These clouds traveled quickly but would seemingly disappear from time to time.

On rugged trails that followed along a ridge, a humanoid figure walking along the trail slowly advanced step by step.

The surrounding was unusually quiet. Even the common noises that came from insects had seemingly gone completely silent following his arrival.

Along the stone covered trail, the stones seemed to be covered by the moss growing on top of it. Both sides of the trail were flush in a green that gradually spread to the trail. However, before the greens managed to make contact with the silhouette of the person's body, they seemingly disintegrated and formed light wisps of smoke that left nothing behind.

His figure looked rather fuzzy, and the surrounding air was vibrating intensely. Every force seemed to be warping from his presence.

This man was naturally Luo Yuan.

He was walking forward step by step with a face that seemed like white porcelain. After continuing with a look of silence for half an hour, he finally reached the top of the mountain.

The peak was extremely smooth and leveled. It was as if it a part of it had been shaved off. There were only four graves neatly arranged in the middle of the mountain peak but there was still bouquets of flowers arranged before each grave with petals unwithered.

Luo Yuan remained silent for a moment and sighed in his mind. He could smell the familiar aroma from the flowers that still seemed fresh. These bouquets were left

Luo Yuan was silent for a moment and then sighed within his mind, he could smell the familiar aroma that came from the yet withered flowers, these bouquets of flowers were left by Wang Shishi. However, when she noticed that he no longer looked the same, she began avoiding contact.

The years were cruel. First, Chen Xinjie passed away.

Then it was Huang Jiahui, followed by Wang Xiaguang and Zhao Yali. The oldest of them had survived beyond a hundred and seventy years old.

Although the genetic technology was extremely advanced and the humans had broken the code behind the secrets of life a hundred years ago, humanity still managed to draft a new version of human genes that could extend one's lifespan beyond 300 years or more.

However, the human gene was similar to a piece of white paper that was suitable for painting. Previous generations had long painted images onto the paper, so even if current technology could already achieve a full-scale cellular gene modification, there was still a part within the human genome that they were forbidden from modifying.

That part was the core of human life — the brain. Any modification done to the brain cells would definitely change the signal transmission to the cerebral cortex and would result in one's memory turning into nonsense.

Not everyone was like Luo Yuan, who had a consciousness so powerful that it could retain his memory even if his body was to turn into a cluster of particles. Even then, he would still be able to think without any obstruction. He could also modify the memories in his brain.

The new humans were only a slightly stronger version of the previous humans. Even if they had taken the energy crystal core, it would be like a castle in the air for them. They still would not be able to change the nature of their lives.

Luo Yuan still remembered the first time he saw Zhao Yali. It was not long after he had graduated that he began renting a lot. He was still a young and brash man when he was faced with this gentle, soft-spoken lady. Back then, he could not help but blush.

He also clearly remembered that when he first met Huang Jiahui, it was when the apocalypse had just happened and she was in a policewoman's uniform, radiating an uncommon valiance.

Then, there was Wang Xiaguang, a gentle and passionate woman that he still had plenty of things to do with her.

There was also Chen Xinjie...

All these memories... He felt every single memory as if they had happened yesterday. However, they had all been separated from him because of life and death.

Did he love them? Maybe, maybe not.

During that precarious apocalypse, that crazy era where any and all humanity would be lost along with reason... Nobody would consider the things he did. Most of their consideration would only come from the lust that men had for women before it gradually turned into affection.

...

Luo Yuan silently honored them for a moment and disappeared from the grounds.

The next moment, he had reached the residential house nearby the space city. The constant growth of his powers for hundreds of years had made it impossible for him to live among the humans.

If his will were measured by a value system, it would have reached 40 points. His will had improved a hundredfold and if the Luo Yuan in the past was a piece of critical metal, the current him was a piece of white dwarf matter that emitted extreme radiation. The air he breathed out could unconsciously and potentially eliminate the mental faculties of those within ten kilometers of him.

There was a price to pay to be so almighty and powerful. Just as one obtained eternity, one had to suffer through eternity, alone.

Fortunately, Luo Yuan had long become accustomed to it and had adapted to feeling lonely.

His house was completely exposed to space without any protective shield or defenses. However, not even a high-speed meteor shower could destroy the house that he personally synthesized with critical metals. The house was empty, just like death. Even light was not present since Luo Yuan had no use for it.

His body floated to the metal's surface, and he turned his head to look toward the faraway Earth. He quietly stood there for a moment before he entered the clean but empty living room. Aside from the three-layered icy wall, there were no decorations.

He swung his hand once, and a spatial sphere appeared from a higher dimension. It was the interstellar beast farm.

That first generation interstellar beasts had long passed away. Fortunately, these creatures were unisexual. Before the beast's will collapsed, it would spend its remaining energy to birth the next generation. The current interstellar beast living there was of the third generation.

Perhaps, it was due to the fact that Luo Yuan could not accelerate the amount of will in the beasts that they saw a decline in lifespan after every generation. The first generation of interstellar beasts lived beyond 300,000 years, the second generation lived only for about 150,000 years, and the third generation saw its lifespan decrease to only 50,000 years. It was already showing signs of dying to boot!

In the past several hundred years, all three generations of the interstellar beasts had supplied about 16,000 energy crystal cores. This afforded them the opportunity to potentially produce up to three billion intelligence pills each year. It was likely that human technology could only continue expanding at the pace it was because of the sacrifice made by these three generations of interstellar beasts.

Luo Yuan continued as usual and entered the interstellar beast farm with his will. He individually accelerated the time these beasts were experiencing through quantum acceleration. Who would have known that an impossibly tiny fluctuation appeared during that process, fragmenting the interstellar beasts molecules and caused its entire body to crumble.

Of course, this incident to him, this maneuvering error, had not reached an irreversible point. As long as the interstellar beast's consciousness contained within the cells had not begun dissipating, he could still rapidly reverse the molecule's state to that of a few seconds ago.

However, Luo Yuan was neither paying attention nor moving when he regained his composure, causing about half of the interstellar beast's consciousness within the cell to dissipate. There was almost nothing left, making it impossible to resurrect the beast.

However, Luo Yuan was not paying any attention to it at the moment. He slightly sighed.

His fourth dimensionalization had finally come!

Perhaps, the reason that his potential had grown so much more powerful was because Luo Yuan felt that the fourth dimensionalization he would go through this time would be more intense than the last. It was also happening more often than it was previously, allowing him only a few days to prepare.

To this day, he had only experienced the fourth dimensionalization twice. This would be his third time.

The first time he experienced it, the incident was over before he knew it. Aside from a deepening of his comprehension in the fourth dimension, a change also occurred to his height. Not much of an effect could be seen to the outside world.

The second time he went through the fourth dimensionalization, it caused a small fluctuation in his current dimension, expanding his body a thousandfold to become a titan that towered twenty meters high. He had terrifying destructive power and had almost destroyed the captive Glassian ship.

It was clear after the second incident that both times were completely different. He estimated that the third fourth dimensionalization he went through would obviously be more intense, potentially causing a terrifying disaster.

It was then that he thought he could not stay in outer space close to Earth or even the solar system.

He immediately made up his mind and send both Wang Shishi and Luo Shengwei a message.

The next moment, his body reappeared at the outer region of the solar system. After teleporting ten or so times, he had reached a distance of light years away from the solar system. However, his instinct told him that the current distance was still not far enough to guarantee Earth's safety.

He then compressed all the atoms in his body, crushing it to shrink himself into a body as dense as a white dwarf before he entered his space-time bubble to fly toward a random direction.

Within only ten minutes or so, he had reached the limit of his speed, closing in at almost 4,000 times the speed of light with his curvature flight.

His body was like a dazzling glow that streaked across space, speeding up along the way as he flew across star after star, leaving his home behind him. Leaving intense spatial fluctuations in his wake, he had transported himself far away.

Five days later, he finally ended his journey at a barren star system. The distance between this star system and his solar system was over 50 light years away.

Then, Luo Yuan completely halted the atom compression on his body, reassembling his body back to its 20-meter height. Then, he gazed into the fourth dimension with a calm mind.

His exhausted will was recovering at an astounding speed. Within only ten seconds or so, he had completely recovered himself and was back at the top of his game.

Gradually, his body faded in and out of existence. He was both illusory and real as a humongous amount of dark energy gushed into his body. The dissipated energy felt like the pulse of the universe that managed to even disintegrate an asteroid belt that was tens of millions of kilometers away. Under the impact of this pulse, it was like a candle being exposed to extreme temperatures, melting within seconds to disintegrate into nothingness. Even the frozen planets hundreds of millions of kilometers away began to show signs of melting.

The premonition he felt became even more intense as his body sent out an impending

The feeling of premonition had become even more intense, his body had sent out a transmission signal in haste.
