With enough high-dimensional information, he could have a clearer understanding of the path and have it smoother.
"Yes, it's very difficult for you to become a cosmic legend without a legacy. The chances of becoming a high-dimensional lifeform are indeed very slim," Blacksky nodded in admittance.
"No test subject in the history of our vast universe who was corrupted by the Void Celestials has become a high-dimensional lifeform," Xu Jingming said. "If I don't have the determination to put my life on the line, I probably won't have a chance of becoming a high-dimensional lifeform."
"Actually, it's not bad to live peacefully for 100,000 years without becoming a high-dimensional lifeform," Blacksky said with a smile.
"Living as a piece of trash for 100,000 years is torture." Xu Jingming's eyes were filled with hostility. "I still want to crush the Void Celestial, Tutenmu, to death with my own hands. No, I should let him have a taste of third-realm high-dimensional corruption."
Blacksky nodded. "Alright. Since you're so adamant, I can only tell you that if you use the imitation method carefully, it won't be a new consciousness in the beginning but a new emotion."
"New emotion?" Xu Jingming was puzzled.
"Yes, one day, your emotions will be out of your control," Blacksky said. "You might be very sad one day and remain in a sorrowful mood, or you might be in torment and remain in a tormented mood…"
"This strange state of abnormal emotions means that a third-realm high-dimensional lifeform has a deep impact on you. You have to stop imitating when that happens," Blacksky explained. "Once the emotional impact reaches a certain level, a new consciousness will be born."
"Once a new consciousness is born, there's no turning back," Blacksky continued. "According to what I know, your life is over unless another third-realm high-dimensional lifeform takes action and helps wipe out this new consciousness."
Xu Jingming nodded slightly. "The appearance of abnormal emotions? I understand."
"You won't." Blacksky said, "After an abnormal emotion appears, even if you stop the imitation method, the effects of the abnormal emotion on you… will be very far-reaching."
Xu Jingming frowned.
"Is it fatal?" Xu Jingming asked.
"No, but it will affect your mind. Nobody knows how long the abnormal emotions will torment you. It might affect you for a thousand years, 100,000 years, or a lifetime!" Blacksky gazed at Xu Jingming. "I've only heard that the abnormal emotional torment is terrifying. I'm not too sure about anything else."
"If it's not fatal, can I still continue on the evolutionary path and break through to become a high-dimensional lifeform?" Xu Jingming smiled.
"Although the backlash from abnormal emotions is painful, it doesn't affect your evolutionary path," Blacksky said. "From what I know, it's over once the imitation method results in the birth of a new consciousness. It's fine to stop before the new consciousness is born."
Xu Jingming smiled and was very satisfied with the information Blacksky revealed. "I understand. The moment an abnormal emotion appears, I'll stop the imitation method. And before that, I won't give up."
"Oh right." Blacksky looked at Xu Jingming. "You've done very well recently. Although you've lost control many times and have implicated space pirates, you've already been targeted by the voyeur on Spacetime Island. If you lose control and implicate countless commoners, the punishment for having it happen once or twice is a deduction of credit! But after implicating others too many times and it is confirmed that you don't have the ability to control yourself, we have to take action and imprison you."
"I'm very clear about the Cosmic Human Alliance's rules." Xu Jingming nodded.
The rules were very tolerant of Origin lifeforms.
Origin lifeforms had many privileges.
Even if he made a huge mistake, a huge sum of credit would usually be deducted. Then, he would be forcefully expelled to the front line of the species to fight for extended periods. If he went further, he would be imprisoned as a laborer or even imprisoned completely. He would even be a test subject for great scholars…
For a peerless genius like Xu Jingming, they were still very tolerant of him after his corruption. But after continuous large-scale massacres and confirming that he didn't have the ability to control himself, he could only be imprisoned.
As for some minor mistakes? The stronger an Origin lifeform was, the more likely it was to make mistakes. For example, it was very common for one's mind to fall into the abyss when visualizing it.
It was also very common for one to be ruthless. The closer one was to high-dimensional, the more likely it was for their mind to be in an abnormal state.
"It's up to you." Blacksky nodded and left.
Xu Jingming stood still and took a step across distant spacetime to head for a beautiful tourist planet.
…
On a tourist planet.
Xu Jingming enjoyed the scenery and delicacies. He didn't visualize Abyssal Void anymore and instead consolidated the high-dimensional information.
The high-dimensional information he had previously received was fragmented and massive. Just integrating, summarizing, and absorbing it took him more than half a year.
In an open-air bar, even though Xu Jingming was sitting there and had deliberately restrained his aura, an invisible dark pressure prevented tourists from approaching ten meters from him.
The boss and waiters looked at the only customer in the open-air bar and felt bitter.
With this customer here, the other customers didn't dare to sit.
It's been more than three hours. Why don't I comp him and get him to leave? the boss thought to himself and looked at Xu Jingming. Forget it. Bear with it.
Neither the bar owner nor the waiters dared to request Xu Jingming's departure.
I've already deliberately restrained my aura, but it still affects the minds of the people around me. Clearly, the effect of the imitation method isn't limited to aura. Xu Jingming made a judgment when he saw the bar owner and waiter and the expressions of some tourists.
I have to understand Abyssal Void well enough for the foundation of the previous static visualization, dynamic visualization, and Abyssal Void Spear Art… The effects will be better with a deeper understanding and a clearer visualization of the spearmanship! The best way to understand high-dimensional information is through imitation.
This is the only way I can obtain massive high-dimensional information.
I've finished sorting out the high-dimensional information. I can continue imitating. Xu Jingming got up and left. Wherever he passed, the tourists on the street naturally parted and tried their best to maintain a distance from him.
Xu Jingming disappeared at the end of the street.
"He's finally gone." The bar owner and waiters walked out and heaved a sigh of relief.
"Boss, he didn't pay," a waiter said.
"Such a ruthless person actually doesn't pay." The bar owner gritted his teeth. Suddenly, he received a message—63,200 Qinglan dollars had been credited to his account.
"I received the money. It happens to be yesterday's turnover." The bar owner found it unbelievable.
"It was probably paid by that customer. Boss, I've worked at your place for 12 years, but I've never seen such a terrifying person," a waiter said.
"How did he know my daily turnover?" The bar owner found it unbelievable. Only the planet's official tax department could find out about his sales. How did this customer know?
At this moment, Xu Jingming had already left this tourist planet and arrived on a pirate planet billions of light-years away.
