GA: Chapter 75: For a Demon, Betrayal Is Only Natural, Right?
"Lighthouse Richest Man": "You guys are being way too direct."
"Lighthouse Richest Man": "@Filial Old Thing, I'm not like them—I just genuinely want to be your friend."
"Lighthouse Richest Man": "If the chat group's world-travel function opens, I'll go to your world and help revive you."
"Lighthouse Richest Man": "Of course, you know I'm a businessman, so I'll need a little bargaining chip. Not much—just a few talismans will do."
"Filial Old Thing": "..."
"Filial Old Thing": "You might as well just say it directly."
In the end, wasn't he just after his talismans?
"Filial Old Thing": "@Ordinary Group Leader, send me my future. Once I break the seal, aside from the Rat, Tiger, and Dragon talismans, you can choose any of the others."
For the sake of revival, the Holy Lord gritted his teeth and offered a huge price.
But…
"Ordinary Group Leader": "Do you think I'm stupid?"
"Ordinary Group Leader": "Don't think I'm young and easy to fool."
"Ordinary Group Leader": "You didn't even give Valon the treasure you promised him."
"Ordinary Group Leader": "And you didn't keep your promise to revive the other demons either."
"Ordinary Group Leader": "As if I'd believe you."
The Holy Lord had no way to refute that. Although the matter of not giving Valon the treasure hadn't happened yet, he indeed had no intention of doing so.
As for the talismans… well, he had planned to assess the other members' strength before deciding whether to hand them over.
"Umaru the Lazy Girl": "Um… the Holy Lord is a Fire Demon, right? And demons… betrayal is kind of normal, isn't it?"
"Uchiha Dance King": "That's true."
"Boil Daigo into Soup": "Young lady, you've hit the blind spot."
"Lighthouse Richest Man": "Unexpectedly, I can't deny that."
"Worst Spirit": "A point I hadn't considered."
"Ordinary Group Leader": "…"
"Ordinary Group Leader": "So, let's wait until the travel function opens. After we go to your world and get what we want, we'll revive you."
"Ordinary Group Leader": "We're not like you—we won't go back on our word."
"Ordinary Group Leader": "But after revival, if you want to rule somewhere, go ahead—but not in China."
"Ordinary Group Leader": "And definitely don't slaughter Chinese civilians at will."
For Su Yunqing, China was still China—no matter the world. You could be a ruler, but not there, and certainly not by harming its people.
That was something she could never accept.
"Filial Old Thing": "..."
"Filial Old Thing": "I understand."
Given the situation, he had no choice but to back down for now. Once revived, he could reconsider.
Before that, he would check the memory copies. According to the information, they contained the futures of other members, which could help him gauge their strength.
The travel function still hadn't been activated. Based on the chat group's rules, it would probably require fifteen members to unlock new features.
There were currently thirteen members excluding the group leader—still two short.
The timing and number of new members joining were random, so no one knew when it would happen—but it probably wouldn't take too long.
Bai Xuan was naturally interested in traveling to other worlds, but he wasn't in a hurry.
He still had other things to do.
Since his mindset changed, Bai Xuan's understanding of nature had deepened, as had his control over it.
The ability to communicate with all things—originally awakened just to talk with Pikachu—had undergone a transformation.
In Bai Xuan's understanding, communication with all things only applied to living beings in nature—animals and plants—a powerful translation ability.
But he hadn't expected it to extend beyond life itself, to something vast and supreme—
The Earth.
The Earth has consciousness!
But this isn't a scientific definition, nor something explained by psychology.
It belongs to the realm of the mysterious.
When the chat group selects members during the spiritual energy revival, who does it communicate with?
The world consciousness.
More precisely, the consciousness of Earth.
It could also be called the Heavenly Dao, fate, or the collective will of civilization.
This kind of consciousness isn't defined by science, but exists in myths, novels, Buddhist scriptures, Daoist texts, and other non-scientific works.
All of this is called the mystical.
If Earth has consciousness, then naturally it can be communicated with.
And by that logic, not just Earth—even the universe may have its own consciousness.
Of course, Bai Xuan couldn't communicate with the universe yet, nor had he tried.
The Earth's consciousness was mostly dormant. Aside from their first interaction, it rarely responded.
That conversation only concerned aspects of the Authority of Nature.
But it didn't explain much—only conveyed a vague sense of "you'll understand in the future" before falling silent.
Bai Xuan found this rather frustrating.
Still, that encounter made him realize that his ability to communicate with all things was far more powerful than he had imagined.
If Earth's consciousness could be communicated with… what about other things?
Like fate?
According to mysticism, every nation has its own national destiny consciousness.
Could those be communicated with?
The answer was yes.
Though not as freely as with humans, and not all questions would be answered, communication was indeed possible.
China's national destiny appeared like a totem—a dragon.
And because Bai Xuan was part of China, he felt a deep sense of affinity from it.
Through this national destiny, he could perceive everything within China.
For example: locations of minerals and treasures, rare natural resources, or the emergence of powerful ability users or mutated creatures.
Everything within China—he could know.
He even discovered a mysterious, indescribable space beneath China.
There, he saw countless pure, flawless spheres of light, forming a radiant ocean.
A vague awareness told him that each sphere represented a person who had existed in China.
But this "ocean" was not the underworld, nor did it involve reincarnation.
Reincarnation might exist—but this was not it.
These spheres contained only memories of all Chinese life, not souls.
If Bai Xuan wished, as the holder of the Authority of Nature, he could extract someone's memories and implant them into a suitable body—
creating something akin to a soul.
