Chapter 68
“What are you blabbering about?!” Fei Long roared at Yang Kong . Judging from his tone, he was really mad .
Yang Kong kept quiet, leaving a cold, disdainful smile on his mouth .
Tang Ling was utterly overwhelmed . It was his first time really seeing the night sky . No, it was not the night sky that he was familiar with anymore . It should be called “space” .
The roof was certainly not transparent as it seemed like there was a layer of invisible glass up there .
Tang Ling was not sure . When he looked up, all he saw was the scene changing drastically . The night sky was expanding rapidly before his eyes .
Planets, the void between the planets, the solar system, and then the whole solar system started to shrink…
Then, Tang Ling saw a gigantic branch floating where the solar system was—the branched-out arm of the Orion in the Milky Way .
It was such a grand existence, yet when it entered his eyes, it felt utterly surreal . The mystical light was as soft as a feather yet incredibly captivating .
In the end, the whole galaxy appeared in 3D! It emerged right above the roof of the room .
A vortex that spun rapidly as if someone was stirring the universe with a straw like it was a glass of water, was frozen above the roof .
The magical scenes that changed drastically showed how tiny humans were .
When one realized how miniature he was, which was even smaller than a speck of sand, it felt like even despair would be annihilated .
Everyone who saw the scene was overwhelmed . If Yang Kong was here all the time, gazing at the universe, it was not that difficult to understand why he would have said those words .
However, Tang Ling’s heart housed no despair . His eyes were actually gleaming because the light from the bright galaxy was reflected in his eyes .
Deep in his heart, within the blood that flowed in his body, within the cells that died and regenerated in his blood, inside the genetic materials of his cells, there was a voice speaking to him . It seemed to say, “Reflecting the light of the galaxy in your eyes is a great thing to do . ”

“Because I found it, I saw it and I think about it . ”
Was it not great? The greatness referred to the appearance of life, their existence, and their evolution and reproduction: every miracle that was constructed by coincidence!
The comparison between big and small was never about the numbers .
What would that be? Tang Ling had no answers . He only knew that in front of the grand galaxy or even the whole universe, he only cherished a place without despair .
How would it feel then? Tang Ling was lost right away because all he had read about were the basic theories and knowledge of the old civilization from the epitome of the old civilization knowledge . Otherwise, he would not even grasp the concept of the solar system or even the galaxy .
However, he really did hear a voice in him that seemed like a subtle guide and the excitement that he felt in his heart . What was all that?
It seemed like something was carved in his soul if there really were souls in humans .
For the first time, Tang Ling felt his thoughts would drive him crazy, and fortunately, the perfectly timed cries of surprise stopped him midway .
The crowd was astonished because everyone saw the starlight moved .
Indeed, the starlight of the entire galaxy was moving . It traveled through great distance and time and was gushing towards them .
It was neither quick nor slow as it moved in an indescribable yet reasonable speed . It then rained down on the transparent roof .
In the process, a lot of the starlight scattered away . Only some tiny bits landed on the roof in the end . They amassed and flew towards the measuring machine .
The patterns on the measuring machine lit up in a dark purplish color like the color of space . Sitting inside, Christina grunted .
“Gaze at it, and form it in your heart!” Fei Long bellowed .
When Christina heard him, she concentrated her gaze forward . She then entered a strange form that was visible even to the naked eye . It was known as the Awakening Reverie .

It was as if there really was something in front of her to see . After she gazed at it, she thought about it and started to form its shape in her heart .
However, in the eyes of Tang Ling and the others, other than the nine halos at the door, there was nothing in front of Christina .
The atmosphere became quiet as everyone was overwhelmed, except for Fei Long who might have gotten used to it .
Yang Kong, on the other hand, smiled maniacally in a way that was too profound for others to understand . He muttered to himself softly, “That isn’t starlight . That is the mysterious energy from the universe . Ugh, but too bad I can’t analyze what it is . The old civilization was bright enough, but their basic theories were stuck at a bottleneck for a long time . That’s why this motherf*cking era existed . Is that why everything is unexplainable? So painful! Too painful!” He pulled his own hair madly .
Fei Long sighed as he quietly walked to Yang Kong and tapped his shoulder .
Orston was looking at Yang Kong with a sympathetic gaze as if he was looking at a mad man, but Tang Ling somehow understood Yang Kong .
He felt like it was similar to the first time when he came in contact with explosives and the Desert Eagle . ‘I am using it, but what is it actually? What did it do to produce this kind of result in this way?’
Tang Ling was fortunate enough to get the answer, hence understanding explosives and handguns, but Yang Kong?
In terms of this era, there were things that surpassed the old civilization and they were inexplicable, yet he still had to live with them . Would it not feel a lot more painful?
Tang Ling realized he was thinking a little too much today . The second exam was not as heart-throbbing as the first, but mentally, it whipped up a storm in Tang Ling .
Beep! Then, the measuring machine beeped .
Fei Long and Yang Kong shifted their attention to the measuring machine . Besides them, everyone else in the room was also watching the machine . More precisely, it was the transparent door on the machine they were looking at .
One of the yellowish halos on the door had turned into a soft silver-white color similar to the light of the galaxy .
According to Fei Long, in order to pass this exam, three out of the nine halos on the door had to light up in silver-white . That would mean the candidate had passed .
Did Christina fail? Tang Ling raised a curious brow .
Christina’s eyes were still shut . There was no sign of her getting up as though she was still intoxicated in a certain state .
The wait was no longer than three seconds and the machine beeped again . The second halo lit up .
Five seconds later, the third lit up .
Christina passed! However, she still had not woken up . This time around, half a minute had passed, but the fourth halo did not light up .
It was until the machine produced a quick whir that the fourth halo flickered arduously . It seemed like it was going to light up, but after five flickers, it dimmed .
“Christina has passed . Genetic Chain Talent, three and a half stars,” Yang Kong’s voice echoed throughout the room .

Speaking heresy on my deathbed led me to meet god. Maybe it was a curse, or a blessing, but he decided I would work it off--as one of many gods on another world of magic and sorcery. It wasn't something I intended or was prepared for, but I am willing to work to make the world a better place. Isn't that what a god SHOULD do? Part of the Demonsword Project universe (First Age).

8 172Precipice
Man believes in his dreams, his hopes, his prayers. But what if those very prayers led to his downfall? Humanity’s thirst for knowledge and greed for power has left it at the pinnacle of science. At least that’s what Smith believes. Working tirelessly on the ‘Spread Function’, he hopes to usher in a golden age for mankind and to reconnect with his wife and child, victims of his obsession with the Spread Function. The world is not what it once was. Altered forever by ‘The Reckoning’, the survivors of humanity struggle to live on, drifting as nomads or forming small communities, sustained only by their own blood and sweat. This is the world that Esterian is born into. After learning of his father’s death at the hands of one known only as the 'Shadow of Heaven', he vows vengeance. But there are other forces at work as well. The rulers of the land, beings of unimaginable power known only as the ‘Holy Ones’ would twist Esterian’s rage to serve their own perverted motives. So too would the band of rebels called Advaitha, shrouded in mystery, their seemingly noble motive of reclaiming the world for man hiding a much darker agenda.
