"World data retrieval successful..."
Lu Sheng looked at the new information that appeared before him.
"Year 1 of Martial Era, in the northern region of the Ancient Eagle Nation, southern and eastern regions of the Ancient Lion Nation, and western region of the Ancient Dragon Nation... the earth's surface cracked, and from within emerged a large number of creatures from another world..."
"Buzz—"
Upon reading the first line of the world history, Lu Sheng's mind seemed to be struck by a hammer, the buzzing sensation ringing in his ears without stopping.
Lu Sheng thought he might have misread it, so he leaned in closer and read the text word by word.
"Year 34 of the Martial Way, the Ancient Dragon Nation birthed the world's first internal energy martial artist, and in the same year, the World Martial Alliance was established..."
"Year 42 of the Martial Way, the martial arts grading system was finalized, and Mr. Yang Qianhe, a martial arts master from the Ancient Dragon Nation, became the first five-star martial artist of the Martial Alliance..."
"Year 104 of the Martial Way..."
Lu Sheng sat down, stunned and dazed. Always composed, rarely showing his emotions, his face now displayed a mix of shock and disbelief.
He flipped through the past few hundred years of this world's history, finding that many historical events, figures, and timelines were identical to what he had learned in history class.
The events from Martial Year 310 to 315 felt so familiar, as if he were flipping through the recent past's newspapers.
In the end, Lu Sheng came to an unfathomable, unbelievable conclusion —
This world, was the same world he had always lived in!
The information he had just reviewed was not the history of a martial civilization that rose and fell in another world, but rather...
It was the future of his own world!
The future a thousand years ahead!
"Year 11024 of the Martial Era, so this world, the world I live in, will completely perish in over ten thousand years. It will fall into destruction amidst the overwhelming black mist, and the endless tide of Abyssal Beasts..." Lu Sheng's face grew pale. He couldn't accept this result.
Just a minute ago, he was silently mourning the fall of this mighty civilization. But a minute later, he realized he was mourning the future of his own civilization.
"Maybe not, maybe it's just a coincidence, maybe it's a parallel world..."
Lu Sheng tried to comfort himself, forcing his mind to calm down. He needed more facts to verify this.
He attempted to expand the history further, searching for more subtle clues. But at this point, the lightbrain prompted him: "Insufficient privileges, visitor cannot query."
Lu Sheng furrowed his brows and said, "Generate user."
"Please provide genetic blood sample."
The advanced technology of the lightbrain required a genetic blood sample to create a user — quite impressive.
Lu Sheng wasn't sure if it would work in this dream-like state, but he bit his finger and dripped a drop of blood into the lightbrain's central groove.
Once the blood was deposited, the lightbrain fell silent for more than ten minutes.
Just as Lu Sheng began to doubt whether it had malfunctioned, the lightbrain finally emitted a crisp "Ding—" sound.
But it wasn't the "User creation successful" prompt. Instead, it was:
"Detected human blood sample, 'Ember' plan initiated..."
"Connecting to the 1359 Ember resource library..."
"Connection successful."
"Privileges enabled—"
At that moment, a large amount of information flashed before Lu Sheng's eyes.
[Name: Lu Sheng]
[Gender: Male]
[Lifespan: Martial Era 297-334]
[Martial Strength: Level 4 Martial Artist]
[Available Privileges: Level 2]
[....]
The information displayed at the top was a photo of a middle-aged man, with a sharp and resolute expression — it was a face Lu Sheng knew all too well.
This person was him.
Lu Sheng remained calm as he continued to read through his biography.
"....Graduated from Baihe Third High School, ranked first in the school, and twenty-third in Baihe City, admitted to Baihe Martial University...
Three years later, graduated from Baihe Martial University and joined the military district.
Later served in the Southern Military District...
Died in the Southern War Zone at age 37, in August of Martial Year 334.
Unmarried.
Highest military rank: Second Lieutenant.
Military Honors: Three First-Class Merits, Five Second-Class Merits, Twelve Third-Class Merits...
No extraordinary contributions."
"So, I will die at 37, on the battlefield against the Abyssal Beasts, and at that time, I will still be just a Level 4 Martial Artist... My historical evaluation..."
At the bottom of the file was a historical evaluation of the person, marked with — two stars.
This corresponded exactly with Lu Sheng's Level 2 privileges in the Ember resource library.
Lu Sheng took a deep breath, his gaze turning incredibly complex.
It was hard not to believe this was the future he was about to face.
Because the biography of this "Lu Sheng" up until the age of eighteen was exactly the same as his own life.
Even the detail about his sudden strength boost a little over 200 days before the college entrance exam was recorded.
In the face of such dense historical facts, his own transformation from an ordinary talent to a genius seemed insignificant.
To be accurate, after his transformation, he still didn't qualify as a "genius" in the vast human database.
In a history spanning over ten thousand years, there were countless geniuses far superior to him, hundreds, thousands of times more exceptional... far too many to count.
The so-called leaving a mark in history — in any era, only a few could achieve that.
