Chapter 576: The Soul That Disappeared

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

Gu Nan stared at him for a long time and finally asked, "I left here only a few hundred years ago. Did you discover anything back then?"

"Not at all Thats what I dont understand." Daoist Yellow Springs showed a distressed look. "So I want to ask you to help conduct an experiment."

"You want me to send someone out?" Gu Nan raised an eyebrow and asked.

"Yes!" Daoist Yellow Springs expression looked very sincere. Perhaps this was his intention from the very beginning, but he initially tried to trick Gu Nan into helping him and was unwilling to tell the truth.

This was very normal. After all, hed devoted tens of thousands of years of effort to observing and studying the Gap World. How could he be willing to share his results with others so easily?

"I'll try," Gu Nan thought for a while and agreed.

Gu Nan's first experiment was to forcibly squeeze himself inside the Origin World using his Tier 14 body and laws.

But unfortunately, even if he already reached Tier 14, the Origin Worlds dimensional wall was still as stable as a rock, remaining unaffected no matter how Gu Nan bombarded it.

The stability of this space was unbelievable, even to Gu Nan.

Hed already entered the Origin World before and knew that the law of space inside was indeed more stable than the outside worlds, but not to this extent.

A dimensional wall that even a Tier 14 powerhouse could not break Was there some unknown secret behind this?

Gu Nan didn't ponder this too deeply and used his will to descend to the Origin World, returning to Earth again.

With the power of laws, Fu Cheng was still the same Fu Cheng. Even her appearance hadnt changed much.

She even started learning how to apply makeup to age her appearance just to make herself look a little older so as not to be regarded as a monster.

AndOrigin of Light, a game that was once popular throughout the Federation, finally made a slow exit from the market after over ten years of ups and downs.

No game could stay popular forever. That was inevitable.

Under the influx of a steady stream of new games, the current Origin of Light was more like a nostalgic memory, living in the memories of the older generation of gamers.

Even Fu Cheng's Chengying Entertainment had long since ceased its focus on operating this game, but there was one thing Fu Cheng had always been doing secretly.

She collected and recorded information on every player who completed the Second Round or above. In particular, those who could complete the Third Round were all placed under fixed-interval surveillance.

Fu Cheng had been doing this for several years, even though the person who gave her the task had fallen completely silent for several years.

Because every time Fu Cheng looked in the mirror and saw that young face that was completely different from her own, she would recall that memory.

On this day, when Fu Cheng returned home, she found a stranger in tattered clothes sitting at her desk, leisurely flipping through some documents.

Fu Cheng knew those documents all too well. She started placing this information here a few years ago and had never changed its location.

"Have abnormal players still not appeared?" The stranger across from her calmly asked without even raising his head to look at Fu Cheng, as if this was the way it naturally should be.

"Yes," Fu Cheng answered subconsciously, without any reluctance, "we have recorded all high-level players, and most of them are living normal lives."

"There are also some people who no longer work in the gaming industry due to life changes, but no deceased persons have been found yet," Fu Cheng reported cautiously.

Gu Nan never revealed his purpose behind placing all these players under surveillance, but she seemed to be somewhat aware of it.

Gu Nan didn't care what Fu Cheng knew. After he got the information, he had no interest in this anymore.

Now, he only knew that his game experiment probably failed, and no similar second transmigrator appeared.

Or was there some other trigger?

Gu Nan raised his head to look at Fu Cheng. "Do you want to see the outside world?"

Fu Cheng was stunned and murmured, "The outside world"

She knew that Gu Nan's origin was not simple. He probably came from a civilization other than Earth, and now, the other party even admitted it.

Of course, she didn't know that what Gu Nan meant was somewhere even further outside.

However, after thinking for a long time, Fu Cheng still shook her head. "Sorry, I still have my daughter and Chengying Entertainment. For the time being"

Before she could finish, Gu Nan gently raised his hand and extracted her soul, quickly taking it outside the Origin World.

Gu Nan was just asking for the sake of asking. As for Fu Cheng's opinion itself, that had no impact.

A moment later, Gu Nan wrapped Fu Cheng's soul with the power of laws and started trying to break through the Origin Worlds dimensional wall.

The dimensional walls of the two major worlds only isolated one direction. That was to say, they severely hindered outsiders but didnt have strong effects on native inhabitants.

In contrast, the dimensional wall of the Origin World was almost like an iron wall for both outsiders and natives, making it difficult for those in the Origin World to leave.

Even Gu Nan couldn't bring Fu Cheng out completely, so he chose to take away Fu Cheng's soul, which didn't take much effort.

Daoist Yellow Springs could even take away Lu Wen's soul back then. Gu Nans current endeavor was naturally easier than that.

But the moment Gu Nan took Fu Cheng out of the Origin World, he suddenly discovered a strange phenomenon.

Fu Cheng disappeared.

Fu Cheng's disappearance was not sudden. It could even be said that Gu Nan watched Fu Cheng disappear, and the whole process appeared clearly in his eyes.

The instant he left the Origin World, Fu Cheng's soul seemed to be enveloped by some kind of power, gradually breaking free of Gu Nan's control.

It felt like the dimensional wall naturally extended out to cover Fu Cheng so that Gu Nan could not control her and could only watch as she was dragged further and further away until she disappeared completely.

But even so, Gu Nan had a hunch that Fu Cheng was still alive.

Gu Nan frowned slightly, and his consciousness returned to his body. He looked at Daoist Yellow Springs. "Did you see that soul just now?"

When Daoist Yellow Springs heard this, he couldn't help showing a grave expression. "I saw you bring a soul out, but by the time you left the Origin World, you were the only one left."

Gu Nan frowned in thought for a while, then returned to Earth as if he understood something.

This time, he randomly grabbed a soul on the streets and took it directly away from the Origin World. This time, the soul did not disappear.

After Gu Nan left, Daoist Yellow Springs immediately said, "I saw that the soul is still in your hand?"

Gu Nan nodded, then shook his head. He looked at the passerby's soul wrapped in his own laws, only to see that the soul had already crumbled apart.

There was basically no difference between Gu Nan's treatment of the two souls, so the real difference was actually in the two souls themselves.

What was special about Fu Cheng, who disappeared?

Gu Nan could come up with the answer without much thoughtas the creator of Origin of Light, she was extremely familiar with the real background of the World of Gods.
