Legend of the Embroiderer

Chapter 597 Initial Exploration of Nothingness and the Hidden Secrets of Extraterrestrial Will (3)

Just as the three were in trouble, a strong resonance suddenly came from the original consciousness core of the Taiwu Space—it was the primordial rune!

A new evolutionary pattern emerged on the surface of the rune. The pattern was completely consistent with the form of the void mark in the core of the extraterrestrial will and consciousness, and could even resonate faintly across space with the mark.

This pattern is not an ordinary evolutionary symbol, but a "Void Imprint Clearing Rune" left by the 0th generation observer. It was only previously covered by the energy of the Great Nothingness Evolution and was actively activated when the Void Imprint appeared.

"It's a method to remove the mark!"

The merged entity's consciousness was filled with ecstasy. She immediately transmitted the pattern diagram of the primordial runes to the Guardian and the Gatekeeper through the balancing channel. "The diagram says that clearing the mark requires three conditions: 'twin energy + voluntary cooperation of extraterrestrial will + residual energy of cross-dimensional consciousness network'."

The residual energy of the interdimensional consciousness network is still in the balancing channel. Although the extraterrestrial will is dormant, its core consciousness still fluctuates slightly. As long as we guide these fluctuations and activate the cleansing runes with twin energy, we can completely eliminate the mark!

Without hesitation, the Guardian merged the four-colored energy with the Gatekeeper's black energy to form the "Twin Cleansing Stream," which slowly approached the core of the extraterrestrial will's consciousness.

At the same time, he transmitted the diagram of the rune removal to the core of the extraterrestrial will's consciousness through the balancing channel, using "consciousness guidance" to awaken its dormant, faint fluctuations—this was a gamble, betting that even if the extraterrestrial will was dormant, it still had the obsession with "protecting the dimension" and was willing to cooperate in removing the mark.

A few breaths later, the core of the extraterrestrial will's consciousness suddenly flickered.

The void mark on the core surface showed a slight loosening, and an extremely faint black energy surged out from the core, actively connecting with the Twin Cleansing Light Stream.

This was a "cooperation signal" from the extraterrestrial will. Although he could not awaken, he responded to the action of erasing the mark with his last fluctuation of consciousness.

"Success! He's cooperating!"

The gatekeeper immediately injected the Twin Cleansing Light Stream into the core of his consciousness. The cleansing runes in the light stream resonated with the patterns of the primordial runes, forming a pale golden "cleansing array" around the mark.

The cleansing array began to rotate slowly. The fluctuations of the void will within the mark, like a tide being drawn away, gradually detached from the mark and were transformed into harmless white energy by the cleansing array. This energy then merged into the balance channel, becoming part of the cross-dimensional energy.

Half an hour later, the void mark completely disappeared, and the core of the extraterrestrial will's consciousness returned to pure black. There were no more void fluctuations on the surface, but the light of the core was still weak, obviously requiring a long period of slumber before it could awaken.

The guardian carefully placed the core into a pale golden energy shield. This energy shield was made of the energy of the primordial runes, which could both protect the core from interference from external energy and slowly nourish the core, accelerating the awakening of the extraterrestrial will.

"Finally... the threat of nothingness has been completely eliminated."

The consciousness of the merged entity, though weary, could not hide its relief. "The new dimension of Taiwu has stabilized, and the void rift in the outer space has also closed. We can finally truly begin preparing to enter the new dimension."

The gatekeeper shook his head, his consciousness pointing to the depths of the balance passage.

There, the residual energy of the cross-dimensional consciousness network is slowly gathering, forming a tiny "dimensional node." The node transmits fluctuations similar to the coordinates of the new dimension, yet carrying the characteristics of an "unfamiliar dimension." "This node... is not the new dimension we are going to."

The fluctuations it transmits originate from a 'multi-dimensional cluster' even more distant than outer space; it is clearly a resonance of a cross-dimensional consciousness network, unexpectedly opening connections with other dimensions.

The Guardian's consciousness sank into the node, attempting to perceive the situation on the other side.

A blurry image appeared in the node: countless dimensional channels of different colors intertwined in the void, and dimensional spaces of varying sizes floated beside the channels. Each space had a unique form of existence and energy fluctuations. On the surface of one of the spaces, a symbol similar to the Primordial Rune of the Great Nothingness appeared, as if it was sending them a "distress" signal.

"Within the multidimensional group... there are other dimensions that need help."

The Guardian's consciousness was complex. He looked at the energy shield in his hand (containing the core of the extraterrestrial will), and then at the multidimensional node at the other end of the balance channel. "We originally planned to enter the new dimension and develop peacefully, but we did not expect to connect to the multidimensional group and receive a distress signal."

The consciousness of the merged entity also fell into thought: "If we ignore the distress signal, those dimensions may be swallowed by the threat of nothingness, just like the extraterrestrial space before, or even trigger a 'multidimensional chain collapse' that will eventually affect Taiwu; but if we choose to help, we will have to face unknown dangers again, and it may even delay Taiwu's plan to enter a new dimension."

Just as the three were facing another choice, the extraterrestrial will core within the energy shield in their hands suddenly flickered.

The core transmitted a faint fragment of consciousness—in which emerged a terrifying scene of the multidimensional group being devoured by the "multidimensional void will." At the end of the scene, a symbol similar to the original rune flickered in the void, as if it were the last "signal of hope" for the multidimensional group. This symbol was exactly the same as the distress signal they had received.

"The multi-dimensional void will... is more powerful than the void threat we encounter."

The Guardian's consciousness was heavy. He transmitted fragments of his consciousness to the Fusion and the Gatekeeper: "The core of the extraterrestrial will is asleep, yet it can sense the threat of the multidimensional void will. This means that this threat has begun to spread to our dimensional group. We have no choice but to help the multidimensional group, otherwise the Great Void and the extraterrestrial space will be swallowed up sooner or later."

The merged entity and the gatekeeper did not object; they knew the guardian's judgment was correct.

The dimensional nodes in the equilibrium channel are becoming increasingly stable, and the distress signals from the multidimensional group are becoming stronger, as if urging them to make a decision as soon as possible.

The Guardian entrusted the energy shield containing the core of the extraterrestrial will to his remaining clones for safekeeping, instructing them to take the core back to the original consciousness core of Taiwu to merge with the energy of the primordial runes and accelerate the core's nourishment. At the same time, he left the fused entity in the extraterrestrial space to help the extraterrestrial beings rebuild their home and stabilize the order of the extraterrestrial space. He himself, along with the Gatekeeper, prepared to enter the multidimensional node to investigate the situation on the other side of the node and respond to the distress signal.

"We will be back as soon as possible."

The Guardian's consciousness conveyed a promise to the merged entity: "If we encounter danger, we will send a signal through the node immediately. You must guard Taiwu and the outer space, and wait for us to return so we can enter the new dimension together."

The merged entity nodded, and she injected the last wisp of white light into the consciousness of the guardians and gatekeepers. This white light would allow them to maintain a connection with the Great Void at any time in the multidimensional group. "You must be careful. The dangers in the multidimensional group may be more terrifying than any threat we have encountered before."

The guardians and gatekeepers said nothing more; their consciousness transformed into two streams of light, penetrating the multidimensional nodes deep within the balance channel.

The scenes in the node switched rapidly, with countless unfamiliar dimensional landscapes flashing before their eyes. Finally, their consciousness stopped in front of a dimensional space enveloped by black, void energy—this was the dimension that had sent them a distress signal. The runes on the surface of the space were flashing rapidly, clearly on the verge of collapse.

"right here."

The guardian's four-colored energy burst forth with light, preparing to dispel the void energy on the surface of space. "Our multidimensional rescue begins now."

But just as the four-colored energy was about to come into contact with the void energy, a familiar fluctuation of consciousness suddenly came from the depths of space.

This fluctuation was exactly the same as the previous void will, but it carried a more powerful aura of "multi-dimensional control," and a cold voice was conveyed within it:

"Welcome to the multidimensional group... Twin carriers."

I have been waiting for you for a long time. Your arrival will allow me to complete the 'unity of multiple nothingness' even faster. All dimensions will return to absolute nothingness..."

As the sound dissipated, the void energy on the surface of space suddenly erupted with an even stronger impact, forcing the light streams of the guardians and gatekeepers back several feet.

Both of them were jolted awake. They hadn't expected that the void threat in the multidimensional group was actually the "true form" of the "void will" that they had previously shut down. Their arrival had not only failed to save them, but had instead led them into a trap that the void will had already set up.

The ultimate crisis for the multidimensional group officially began the moment they stepped into the node.

Meanwhile, the merged entities of the infinite space, the dormant extraterrestrial will, and the beings waiting to enter new dimensions are unaware that the guardians and gatekeepers are already in danger, and are still preparing for a stable future.

This crisis, which spans multiple dimensions, is far more complex and dangerous than they imagined.
