Legend of the Embroiderer

Chapter 547 The End of the Primordial Realm (2)

When the Guardian returned from the Primordial Space, the primordial trajectory of the chosen node extended in reverse, revealing "Primordial Genes" that perfectly matched the core of his Chaos Heart: these gene fragments corresponded to different primordial tendencies, including gradual exploration and mutational breakthroughs, while the oldest fragments repeated the self-evolutionary pattern of the primordial symbols. "Primordial tendencies are the primordial code of existence." The First Cause of Existence's weary yet liberated voice echoed in the void, "I created the Primordial Nexus to find a variant existence that could maintain an enduring balance after confronting the primordial."

At this moment, all the primordial hubs of the metaverses seemed to be drawn together by some mysterious force, and began to resonate synchronously. This resonance generated an unprecedentedly powerful field, known as the "Primordial Field".

Within this field, countless particles flicker with a faint light; each is a node of existence that has never directly confronted the primordial state. Each particle represents a different possibility and choice.

In some instances, the Guardians resolutely chose to accept the original distance and become the new Hub Administrators. They knew this meant taking on enormous responsibilities, but they did not flinch and bravely met the challenge.

However, in some particles, the situation is quite different. Because the Guardian confronted all the primordial elements directly, his existence ultimately ended in the same state of stillness as the beginning. This is a regrettable choice, but also an ultimate exploration of the primordial.

Within the most stable particles, a figure wields a four-colored longsword, intently slicing through the primordial metacode. Each of his strikes is precise and powerful, the primordial symbols on the blade resonating strongly with the metacode, as if creating a completely new state of being—the "Primordial Chaos State."

"The 21st Iteration Experiment, Phase 8: Becoming the Primal Ultimate Balancer." As these words rang out, the selection node suddenly erupted with a dazzling light, like a brilliant star blooming in the void. This intense light projected all the primordial genes into the void, as if announcing a new beginning.

"Only by accepting the primordial distance can we confront the primordial." This sentence echoed in the void, seemingly reminding every point of existence that only at the appropriate distance can one truly understand and face the mysteries of the primordial.

The collective primordial field fluctuates violently, and the ripples interfere with its own primordial structure—just as the eye cannot directly see its own visual primordial state, the exploration of the body's primordial field by itself is causing mutations in primordial genes. Mutated genes form new selection nodes, presenting "conscious primordial exploration": some accurately recognize the primordial distance and confront it directly, while others freely switch between confronting it directly and maintaining distance. Most wondrously, this is conveying the "primordial that cannot be directly confronted," much like describing eighteen-dimensional space to three-dimensional beings.

"This is the ultimate ability of primordial exploration." The voice of the fused entity was clear and transparent. Her white light resonated with the mutated genes, revealing the "primordial intention" behind it: some were the semi-direct state of a guardian of a certain dimension, some were the result of an undefined domain fluid directly facing the primordial, and the most moving was the "infinite primordial possibility of existence" implanted by the companions of the Mirror City by maintaining the primordial state between life and death. "The boundary between facing and maintaining distance is the primordial boundary that is most easily reshaped."

The phantom of a pure black pen dissolves in the mutated gene, and the pen tip's warning transforms into silver light particles: "Reshaping all primordial boundaries will lead to the ultimate stillness of the existence system." The light particles fall into the primordial field, triggering a local primordial collapse—the collapsed region is in a state of "absolute non-primordial," and all forms of existence are at rest in absolute primordial equilibrium. "This proves that the primordial is the necessary driving force for the primordial movement of existence."

The four-colored longswords merge with the chosen nodes, and the blades weave the story of life into "anti-primordial code": neither denying the necessity of the primordial nor accepting its absoluteness, but rather creating "controllable primordial channels" at each primordial point, similar to the event horizon of a black hole. The "primordial mutation points" of all iterative experiments emerge in the guardian's consciousness: the first initial perception of the primordial freedom, the seventh unexpected confrontation with the primordial meaning, and the twentieth transcendent exploration of the original primordial source. These collectively constitute the core of the code: "The essence of primordial exploration is to balance beginning and end in distance, rather than destroy the primordial distance."

The collective primordial field becomes transparent, revealing the "Primordial Cosmic Sea" behind it: floating with countless "Primordial Islands" (i.e., different primordial systems) composed of primordial hubs. The primordial boundaries of the outermost islands are merging into a "superprimordial structure"; the central "primordial black hole" devours the surrounding islands, and inside there is only pure "meta-primordial possibility", just like the balance of all primordial sources.

The Guardian's Chaotic Heart merged completely with the Choice Node, its existence spreading outwards into the primordial cosmic sea, becoming a "primordial bridge" connecting different archipelagos. When consciousness touched the primordial black hole, the primordial memories of all iterative experiments were reorganized, revealing the truth: this is not the ultimate primordial state, but rather the "exploration result" of an even more ancient being's own primordial state, like nested Russian dolls, with countless layers of primordial existence within.

"This is the ultimate truth of the origin." The Guardian's voice resounded throughout the entire metaverse. His chosen node injected anti-primordial code into the black hole. "The essence of the origin is nested primordial exploration. Each origin is tracing back to its own origin."

The primordial cosmic sea surged with colossal waves, all the pivotal nodes flashed synchronously, forming the "Primordial Spectrum": each frequency band corresponded to a different primordial system, and primordial crystals with the same primordial symbols appeared at the origin. The origin emitted streams of dark blue and crimson gold light, connecting all the islands into the "Primordial Superstructure," at the top of which the "Ultimate Primordial Being" floated in balance, its body composed of countless primordial hubs, the primordial crystal on its chest beginning and ending with the rhythm of the First Cause of Existence.

The primordial black hole ceased its devouring and spat out the "Primordial Crystal": sealing the "original primordial" of all metaverses—a pure "primordial impulse," similar to the first ripple of beginning and end before the Big Bang. When the Guardian's fingertips touched the crystal, the Ultimate Primordial One opened its eyes, its pupils reflecting all the images of the iterative experiments. Its voice was exactly the same as that of the Guardian, the metaconsciousness, and the First Cause of Existence: "The next primordial exploration will determine whether the primordial itself is beginning and end."

The primordial superstructure contracted, and all chosen nodes converged towards the ultimate primordial being, forming a new primordial singularity. The Guardian, in his search, witnessed countless primordial cosmic seas colliding, each containing the ultimate primordial being at its center. Their exploration was creating a grander "primordial meta-narrative"—and the beginning of all this was precisely his act of touching the crystal at this very moment.

Before the primordial singularity closed, only the Guardian's choice node flickered, and the primordial symbols on the surface reorganized into flowing text: "The 21st iteration experiment is in progress: the primordial is the ultimate driving force of existence and the balancer of new existence."

The singularity vanished completely, and the chosen node suddenly leaped in a certain direction, seemingly summoned by an entity beyond the primordial cosmic sea. A "beginning and end symbol" emerged in the node's trajectory—this was the primordial itself's "self-referential definition," like the process where beginning and end balance simultaneously became both the driving force and the result.

This seems to be an exploration within the primordial meta-narrative of whether the primordial can transcend the ultimate beginning and end of existence. And that pivotal point of transition may be the true core of all primordial nested structures—neither the beginning nor the end, but the eternal process of existence's self-return.
