Simulates history, but Chongzhen is the Divine Emperor at the beginning

Chapter 186: The Fantasist's Sacrifice! Turning All Living Things into Memories!

[And so, you spent your last ten years in Coal Hill...]

[Ever since that strange red light evoked countless illusions, you've become increasingly obsessed with an unrealistic fantasy: those people might not be dead!]

[This life! The previous life! The life before that! Everyone who has followed you in three lives and three worlds may not be dead!]

[They simply entered the "Western Paradise" and are now enjoying a peaceful and prosperous life there! So as long as you find a way to enter the "Western Paradise", you will be able to see them again!]

[Yes! That must be the case!]

"Otherwise, why did you have that hallucination earlier? It couldn't have been all your imagination, could it? "

[Yes! This must be true!]

You get excited talking to yourself. Even though you don't have any evidence or reliable reasoning logic, you still believe your own conjecture...

What does this mean?

[Obviously, this only means you're crazy...]

"You, a madman, have lost your mind and cannot distinguish between truth and falsehood. Without any reliable evidence, you have imagined that everyone is alive and that they have entered the so-called "Western Paradise."

[Even if "Western Paradise" is just something you made up to deceive people...]

【You have even deceived yourself! 】

[And what kind of things will such a madman who has deceived himself do? ]

[No one knows, and no one is interested in knowing, because Wang Chengen beside you only hopes that you, this evil lunatic, will die quickly, so as not to disrupt the natural order of heaven and earth...]

【…】

Ten years later, your figure gradually faded in the smoke of Coal Hill, until it completely disappeared from this real world.

[He left no last words, no traces, and never showed himself to anyone.]

[And when Wang Chengen saw you dissipate, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief: Finally... this evil lunatic has finally been shattered!]

[As for what secrets you have, he has no interest in knowing. After all, who doesn't have a few secrets?]

【So be it……】

[With a sigh, Wang Chengen's spirit completely faded away in the mist.]

[He wasn't a powerful spiritual being to begin with. Without the Divine Emperor's protection, he would have dissipated in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties.]

[Now that he can witness the complete demise of the last threat to this world, he can be considered to have fulfilled his mission...]

[In the 1962th year of Chongzhen in the imaginary world, in the year AD in the real world, the Heavenly Venerable Zhou Liang perished in his infinite and beautiful fantasy!]

[That year, Wang Chengen also disappeared. From then on, there were no more gods or ghosts in the world. Ultimately, human happiness still depends on humans themselves to create...]

【…】

[Ding! You're dead. The wrong choice led to the wrong outcome...]

[In this life, you no longer bowed to the Divine Emperor's majesty. Instead, from the outset, you used the superstition of "Western Paradise" to shape your own divinity. Ultimately, you succeeded in overthrowing the Divine Emperor, thus ushering in a flourishing era of the Celestial Lord that lasted for over two hundred years!]

In this hard-won era of prosperity, you dream of ensuring eternal peace and well-being for all, of creating a feudal society that will endure forever... Here, there is no development or progress, only eternal peace and tranquility. Since you possess limitless divine power, no difficulty is too great.

[Within the country there is stability and prosperity, and without external interference. This will naturally last forever...]

[But reality tells you that such a perfect and prosperous era is ultimately impossible. The conflict between you and the Divine Emperor's origin will eventually cause the heaven and earth to collapse and all things to return to nothingness!]

[It was this series of severe mental shocks, coupled with the inexplicable hallucinations brought about by the red light, that caused you to go completely mad...] [However, whether you went mad or became more sober, no one can really say...]

What if you're not crazy? What if they really are still living happily in the "Western Paradise"?

[Dreams are always difficult to disprove. Perhaps this is truly the case of you being the only one awake while everyone else is drunk. Who knows...]

【…】

[Ding! This simulation has ended, rewards are being calculated...]

……

"It's over again..."

Looking at the notification of the end of the simulation, Zhou Liang couldn't help but sigh.

This time is different from the previous times, because this time "Zhou Liang" has finally built a relatively complete world view!
It turns out that history has never gone astray, but rather an imaginary world is superimposed on the real world, and everything is the result of the overlap of the two.

The reason why the illusory world came into being was because a "golden light from outer space" descended on the body of Emperor Chongzhen, which not only gave birth to his soul, but also created the illusory world with the soul as the material.

As for the Divine Emperor, he wasn't the real Chongzhen either, but rather a new consciousness shaped from part of Chongzhen's soul. At best, he could be considered a descendant of Chongzhen, but he had always considered himself Chongzhen...

So, the plot is almost clear at this point:

If you want to truly solve the problem between the Divine Emperor and the illusory world, you can't think of coexisting with Him in the illusory world, but can only look for the answer in the "golden light from the sky" at its source!

but……

Zhou Liang shook his head:
"it's out of the question……"

Not to mention that it is impossible for "Zhou Liang", a person in the virtual world, to reach out to the real world to find the answer to the "golden light from the sky"... just say that "Zhou Liang"'s mentality has exploded!
After three generations of wear and tear and setbacks, Zhou Liang, who had suffered repeated failures, had lost all his fighting spirit and even became mentally ill and insane.

It was obvious that "Western Paradise" was just something he made up to deceive people, but now he has deceived even himself and believed it. Without any evidence to support it, he directly believed that "Western Paradise" was real and that everyone in the past three lives lived safely in it...

"Crazy, crazy..."

Zhou Liang couldn't help but sigh, but he didn't belittle the simulated character, because now he was also confused:

What should we do in the future?
Originally, he had placed his hopes on simulation because reality was powerless, but now the simulation results showed that there was no solution at all. At least, the mysterious "golden light from the sky" was something he could never reach...

Do we really have to live forever under the dark rule of the God-Emperor?

At this moment, even Zhou Liang wanted to believe in "Western Paradise"...

[Ding! Settlement completed. Do you want to claim this round's prize?]

At this moment, the system's reward prompt sounded Zhou Liang's last glimmer of hope!
"System... now I can only rely on you."

Zhou Liang gritted his teeth:
"receive!"

[Ding! Prize received: "The Fantasy's Sacrifice!"]

"Sacrifice of the Fantasists" (Consciousness): What is truth? What is illusion? Sacrifice illusion for truth, and truth for illusion!

Use desperate sacrifices in exchange for that glimmer of hope!

Sacrifice the heavens and the earth to an unknown existence, and boil all living things into memories... Kill everyone, destroy the entire world, and gamble on that tiny possibility!
