Book 7: Chapter 14: The Truth About Heaven Jealousy
“While he possesses all the characteristics of human beings, he also possesses the mighty power of the gods. I’m very satisfying, so I gave him more support than the gods of the past.”
The incarnation of Heaven said softly:
“With a better life form and stronger power, he quickly took the throne from Emperor Jun and became the new Heavenly Emperor, but at this moment, he went against my command, refused to guide the human race.”
“I underestimated the ambition of mankind. The ambition that he inherited perfectly made him want more than being the Heavenly Emperor for a period of time. He didn’t want to let the human race rise. He wants to be the ruler of the world forever. So, where I didn’t notice, he secretly studied me, unearthed the rules that bound me, and then stole my power and carried out a major cleansing of the human race.”
After a pause, the incarnation of Heaven continued:
“And after I discovered his behavior, I also wanted to counteract it, but he discovered my weakness. As long as he didn’t violate the rules, I couldn’t directly interfere with him.”
It turns out that, as long as something doesn’t violate the rules, Heaven can’t act at will and erase its existence in the world.
When Bai Qiuran heard the words, he secretly made a note in his heart, intended to go back and tell Bai Li.
“Therefore, I urgently need to create a human who is more powerful than Eastern Emperor Taiyi to overthrow him. At this time, a corpse was washed away from the void outside the world. The corpse of an unknown creature, with the characteristics remaining on it, made me and the world feel instinctive fear. The capacity in its body is as endless as the void.”
Speaking of this, the incarnation of Heaven hesitated.
“I wanted to destroy it at the time, but the actions of the Eastern Emperor Taiyi were already about to destroy my plan, so I analyzed the remains of this creature and used him as a template to transform and evolve to create a new human. That human is the first Heaven Jealousy.”
“That’s why he was so resentful when he died.”
Bai Qiuran thought that in this way, everything made sense. The first Heaven Jealousy was originally appointed by Heaven to take the place of Eastern Emperor Taiyi, but Heaven betrayed him.
“After creating him, I regretted it. He is like a cancer of the world. Since his birth, I can no longer see a clear future direction. Where he is, I cannot see the surrounding situation. If the potential of the Eastern Emperor Taiyi satisfies me, then his potential scares me.”
The incarnation of Heaven whispered:
“Eastern Emperor Taiyi discovered my concerns, so in the end, when he was killed by the trap of Eastern Emperor Taiyi in Guixu, I did not stop him. But I did not expect that after Heaven Jealousy died, his existence would be recorded by the world itself. Even if I am the will of the whole world, I cannot resist this instinct. After a certain period of time, a similar existence will be born in the human race. I use the lifespan to limit them, but in the end, things develop beyond my control, therefore the world finally gave birth to you.”
The incarnation of Heaven continued to explain to Bai Qiuran the relationship between it, Eastern Emperor Taiyi, and the first Heaven Jealousy, and after hearing its explanation, Bai Qiuran also understood.
The real purpose of Heaven must be to promote the human race to replace the gods to become the world’s ruler. This was its instinct, and he had nothing to say.
It originally wanted to create a being who was exactly like humans but possessed the power of a god to become their leader and guide them to grow and develop, but this leader, Eastern Emperor Taiyi, was greedy for power and refused its orders.
At that time it got an unknown corpse from the void. After improvement, it created Heaven Jealousy, a being with endless potential. However, the first Heaven Jealousy made it feel fear because it knew that even Eastern Emperor Taiyi had his own limits, but Heaven Jealousy had no limits.
Although the Eastern Emperor Taiyi stole its power, Heaven was not as superficial as he thought. Even if the human race was destroyed by the Eastern Emperor Taiyi, after many twists and turns of fate, giving enough time, it could still make the human rise and overthrow Eastern Emperor Taiyi.
But once the first Heaven Jealousy has risen, if he wanted to get rid of its control, then it really had no mean to deal with him.
It’s like the world was a computer, and Heaven was the programmer bound to this computer. If the computer stopped running, the programmer would die.
And his instinct was to write code continuously. The more advanced the software he developed, the more comfortable the programmer was.
At the same time, the programmer could continue to write some hacking programs to take down some owned or unowned computers nearby, which could also satisfy his instinct.
In this process, the programmer developed a software that was better than anything before it, but at the same time, he also created a virus. This virus would continue to delete the better software on his computer, but on the computer, there was also the anti-virus software he developed. Although the progress was slow, the virus would eventually be eliminated by his anti-virus software.
However, the programmer lacked patience. It happened that he didn’t know who had put a book on high-end operations next to him. He used the method recorded in this book to make a new program after some improvements.
Then he discovered that what he developed was an infancy artificial intelligence with infinite potential.
After the birth of this artificial intelligence, on the programmer’s screen, wherever the artificial intelligence was concerned, so far there were only mosaics…
This time the programmer panicked and immediately cooperated with the internal virus to get rid of this newly born artificial intelligence, but before death, this artificial intelligence left its source code at the memory of the computer, which led to a new artificial intelligence being born in the computer after a period of time.
This made the programmer have to write a special program called “lifespan” to limit these larvae of artificial intelligence.
However, in the end, he still failed to prevent it, and Bai Qiuran was born.
Artificial intelligence has reached the level of Skynet, which couldn’t be erased. Except slapping from outside the screen in frustration, Heaven could do nothing. That kind of being should be called The One in The Matrix.
At this point, Heaven had told Bai Qiuran all the secrets between the first Heaven Jealousy, Heaven itself, and the Eastern Emperor Taiyi.
“You should fulfill your agreement.”
The incarnation of Heaven finally reminded:
“Don’t forget, if you refuse, I will restart the world.”
“Then you must also remember, don’t come to me when I’m doing things.”
Bai Qiuran replied:
“Otherwise I won’t show mercy to you.”
