I Am Also An Extraordinary Creature-Chapter 1864 - 1291: The Least Important Problem Right Now (Part 2)
Zheng Yichen clenched his fist, not feeling any weakness in himself. The Oblivion only affected his lifespan, shortening the time he could live.
It was not aging at the physical level; he would remain in a youthful state but would one day suddenly perish due to Oblivion.
Therefore, there was no substantial change in his appearance, and any change would take decades to manifest.
However, Zheng Yichen could distinctly feel his existence fading away.
Without the self-imposed pressure, he could resist this fading for two hundred years. Now, under its influence, he would completely vanish within two days.
Of course, the reality was that in the last moment, he would autonomously lift the self-imposed pressure.
After all, this was meant for transcending tribulation, not for self-destruction; there’s always a minimum protection despite self-restraint.
"You now feel like a candle in the wind, yet extremely dangerous," Wu Lingluo said seriously, staring at Zheng Yichen, who in her eyes appeared as a black hole.
Although the surroundings seemed normal, the afterglow of Oblivion obscured all else from her sight.
The surrounding light also began to dim over time; he himself seemed on the verge of erupting like a black supernova.
"The closer to death, the stronger the manifestation of Oblivion, while the Genesis Power correspondingly strengthens enormously."
As Zheng Yichen spoke, the environment turned into a white expanse. He reached out and pointed into the void, and various new phenomena emerged in the whiteness.
In Wu Lingluo’s perception, time here seemed elongated—no, it was an acceleration of consciousness and body.
Wu Lingluo directly asked about this almost-real illusion, "How long can this last?"
Due to Zheng Yichen’s Genesis Power, this place could be described as real. It was called illusory because it existed solely because of Zheng Yichen, and without him, it would all dissolve into nothingness.
"Almost forever." Zheng Yichen dispersed this created world, stating that it was almost forever, but it was merely a phantom, achieved through consciousness and body acceleration using Fake Time Power.
He could experience this ’almost forever’ in his remaining time, but it was just a self-deception; trying it was enough; indulging too much was unwise.
"Very well, let’s move to the next place." The impact of the self-imposed pressure on lifespan would let him ’survive two days’, yet during these two days, he was extremely dangerous.
Even when facing Dusk afterward, he could fully apply self-imposed pressure on himself...
If the negotiations collapsed, he could release the seal.
Two hours later, Zheng Yichen returned to Liu Hongzhao’s world, where Liu Hongzhao and others who had returned earlier looked at him quizzically, their eyes filled with bewilderment and uncertainty.
They could also feel Zheng Yichen’s current candle-in-the-wind life state.
"Brother Yichen, what happened to you?" Liu Hongzhao suppressed the discomfort from Zheng Yichen’s environmental influence and hurried to his side, her expression anxious.
"Just some new gains, stay a bit further from me for now."
Saying this, he walked alone to an empty area, removing the self-imposed pressure and releasing the ’lifespan’ stored under suppression.
The lifespan explosion instantly countered the vanishing impact of Oblivion, restoring his lifespan state to its peak and then surpassing it. With this explosion, his lifespan state quickly broke through its peak.
Due to the Oblivion’s influence, his briefly lived lifespan directly broke through the constrained height.
Two hundred and forty years.
"Impressive," Zheng Yichen shook his head. This could be considered a means to eliminate the fusion impact of the Annihilation Crystal. Although a bit of a trick, it did effectively solve the problem.
If continued in this way, he could thoroughly solve the issue.
The influence of Oblivion on his lifespan was continuous, but his lifespan could also restore itself, albeit with a loss faster than regeneration.
Therefore, the two hundred years of lifespan built on a foundational value. A higher foundation meant that even if loss exceeded recovery, he could live two hundred years. As the foundation continued to increase, his lifetime would extend.
Increasing the foundational value too much would not increase the loss speed.
This loss speed was fixed.
After applying self-restraining pressure on his lifespan, he could only live for two days, relying on his life’s foundational value during these days.
Now that he released the pressure, the lifespan power accumulated under suppression exploded, directly restoring the extensively consumed foundational value.
Due to the explosive recovery, the foundational value was raised to a whole new height, indirectly increasing his survival time.
This releasing act post-suppression storage somewhat resembled Zheng Yichen’s serpent’s exuvia.
However, the serpent’s exuvia involved concentrating existing resources to a breaking point, achieving a momentary height before inducing a weakening from a lowered total limit.
In contrast, suppression storage resulted in accumulated resources exploding without a lowered limit issue, instead raising the limit, superior to the serpent’s exuvia.
"Not bad, it’s just a pity," Zheng Yichen looked at Liu Hongzhao’s surprised expression, smiling as he said, "The lifespan issue is resolved."
Yet Liu Hongzhao didn’t appear very happy. The lifespan issue being resolved didn’t address the Proxy Agent identity problem, nor the collapse and destruction issue.
If they had initially prevented the collapse and resolved the Boundary Breaking Organization, eliminating this hidden menace, then with Zheng Yichen resolving the lifespan issue, they could truly rejoice.
But now, resolving the lifespan issue seemed most secondary.
Even if not addressed now, they could still have hundreds of years to find a resolution, with Zheng Yichen having several chances in reserve.
"Many issues need to be addressed one by one; later, we’ll search for new World Creators, maybe there’s a turning point."
Liu Hongzhao gently nodded.
During this period, Zheng Yichen had already given up on ’rest’; as he put it, in a few days, there would be ample time to rest, so there was no need to waste time in the last few days before encountering Dusk on resting.
However, in the ensuing time, the World Creators Zheng Yichen found were essentially remnants; Lilith recorded a large number of World Creator legends.
After analyzing them, some connections between World Creators were confirmed, though these World Creators seemed not from the same place, shared few common aspects.
She constructed a model, assuming they really existed in the previous world epoch, which the previous epoch likely resembled a ’Deluge Chaos’-type.
Of course, this was just one analysis outcome, a relatively high probability type, but Dusk didn’t provide specific records.
Moreover, those World Creators were all insane. At least the ones they encountered so far were mad, and such creators couldn’t offer valuable information, serving only as materials for Zheng Yichen’s advancement.
Zheng Yichen also tried using willpower interference to undo actions, but if it worked, Lilith wouldn’t need so much simulation; asking the reverted World Creators would suffice.
But Zheng Yichen’s willpower interference also had limits; the World Creators’ existence spanned too long, exceeding the influence limit.
If he had abundant time to explore, he might discover many more useful pieces of information.
"Gathering that much information isn’t much help right now; we can conduct archaeology when opportunities arise later." In the last two days, Zheng Yichen won’t engage in any substantive external actions. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦
During this period, following the originally planned scheme, he will focus solely on integrating and enhancing everything about himself to confront Dusk in his best state.
Inside the Firmament Wheel, Ahn Ke looked at a ’Meat Mountain’ before her and nodded to Lilith beside her, "The world’s cancer can be deployed."
