Chapter 1

I am 21 years old computer science college student, my family was somewhat poor, but they did what they could to provide me with the money to reach that point of my life, and I also did my best in studying so once I graduate and finally and hopefully get a job, I could repay them.

My whole life was just studying and trying to improve myself and have a better chance in life on this cruel planet of ours, I don't have friends to go out with, I had before, but you could say that they were forgotten by the passing of time, or I was forgotten by them.

Well, I am sure I would have exploded from all this pressure I put on my shoulders, but I found some refuge in web novels and fanfics to pass my already small free time that I got in the middle of assignments, projects, and courses...etc.

During the summer break, As I was walking home from my part-time job, the place was a couple of blocks away, I had to take another route home as the usual one I take has a car accident and I don't want to bother walking there.

So, while I was tiredly moving, I hadn't noticed that I was walking by a construction site, without any warning, I saw a big shadow in the ground where I was looking, looking up I saw a steel frame coming towards me, with no time to react I was crashed.

Opening my eyes, I look around and I don't find anything in my sight, I am in a place filled with complete and utter darkness. Checking myself for anything unusual, I found that I was somewhat slightly glowing and is ethereal somewhat like a ghost, thinking of what just happened just before I found myself here, I began to panic. Pinching myself to cause some pain to shock me, but nothing changed, so I concluded that I wasn't in some dream because I would have been awake by now, and as far as I know, patients with coma don't dream and are UNCONSCIOUS.

After reviewing the recent events before I came here, I concluded that I died.

Thinking up to this point, I realized I won't see my parents again, and that saddened me greatly. I did love my family a lot, and they loved me back.

Similar thoughts began to appear in my mind and be shadowed by other thoughts till the point where I thought I would go insane, so I stopped myself and occupied myself with checking the place I was in.

'Huh, so this is 'The Legendary Void' that I keep reading about in those fanfics.'

I tried to move around, but the problem is how will I know that I was moving without finding some kind of object or some point in space to keep track of my position, so it looks to me as if I was still in place.

So, I began contemplating my life choices and the many regrets I had, but over time in the void, or with time passing for me as I don't know if the concept of time exists in the void or not, I began to accept those regrets and move past them.

I started to think of some funny things like:

'At this point, in most fanfics, I have read that the R.O.B will come and will start to spout his non-sense to the MCs so should I wait for mine?'.

'Ha-ha, but what if no one came, or what if what is coming is some malevolent entity that would harm me instead, or what if...'.

'Ok, I must stop thinking about those things, as I have no control over them'.

I sighed in my mind and let time pass waiting for something to happen.

After that phase, I started to get bored of waiting, I mean REALLY BORED, can you imagine what will happen to a normal human being in a prolonged period of isolation, will guess, they go insane. in this period, I started to review my memories of any sort of entertainment and started to sing to myself in my mind, play mental games, and do some math. Yes, I was that bored, to the degree that I did college-level calculus with my mind.

After that, I realized my predicament that if this goes on.

'Wait, what if nothing happens, what if I stay here forever.'

That thought shot my panic meter to the roof, that was the ultimate kind of torture I could think of.

I will become insane from the prolonged isolation if I didn't find something to do to occupy my thinking else my thoughts might turn extreme without even realizing it, so I had to figure out something to keep my thoughts straight.

With that, after a lot of time and thinking, I concluded that I just need to shut my mind down till something happens, from this point forward I began to practice meditation to clear my mind of any thoughts and keep it blank, and it took too much time to reach that state, as I consider myself one of the thinking types of people, I am guessing it took years as I don't have a way to measure time with me at that point, and I named that state of mind the blank state.

After mastering this blank state of mind, hoping that I am floating, and there is a chance that there are other things in the void floating as well, so logically there is a chance to we will encounter each other, albeit that probability of that is infinitesimal, but it is not zero, so we will encounter each other eventually, that's what I tried to convince myself, and it is better than setting through all that time, I prepared myself mentally to enter it and hope that after some time I will encounter something. Hopefully, that time won't take forever.

And that's how the rest of my stay in the void passed.

After an unknown amount of time passed, I came out of my blank state as something had hit my leg, I looked around and wondered how much time has passed, but as I have nothing to measure it with, I turned my attention to the thing that hit me.

I looked at it and it was a rock, a black rock to be specific, I touched it and nothing happened, I took hold of it in my hand and noticed that the black color was just some kind of dust covering it, I became curious of what is behind the dust and started to remove it, you can't blame me I have been here for I don't know how long and there was nothing to do, so I through the caution out of the window.

After some of the dust was removed, my finger came in contact with the inner layer of the rock and some information appeared in my mind and I was shocked because of two things, the first was the sudden appearance of the information in my head, and the second was the information itself, it appears that this rock contains some type of omnipotent energy that can do one thing that its holder wills it to do, except for making its welder a truly omnipotent being of course, or as people would like to say, it grants its holder a wish that will happen no matter what it is.

And that is the result of the accumulation of the void energy and condensing it over a nearly infinite amount of time in the void in the center of the rock.

So here I am, I have a wish-granting tool in my hand, what do I wish for? Of course, I want to get out of here, but out of here to where? I don't know, so I lack the necessary knowledge, but I can't wish for knowledge as I will still be here, and it is only one wish. Also, I can't forgo this opportunity, I always wanted to have a superpower like in the novels I read when I was alive, and with the condition of not being able to wish for true omnipotence, then I will wish for something below that, or better yet everything below it with knowledge. And I heard of that kind of power before, what was its name?

'Oh, it was [Complete Arsenal].'

I am not surprised as I can remember something I considered trivial, and I just skimmed through it in the time I was alive. If you review your memories hundreds if not thousands of times, then you will surely remember things you weren't aware of.

And I don't think it is omnipotence as it is part of omnipotence, not the other way around, so it fits the condition.

So, after contemplating for a while I held the stone close to my heart and repeated this thought in my mind,

'I want the complete arsenal power of all realities tied to my very existence not only my body, soul, or mind but my very existence.'

Yeah, I don't want that power to be related to my DNA or tied to my soul only to be taken by some dude that has the power that manipulates the souls, or someone else that can copy DNA. I just want it to be tied to my existence, if I exist, I have this power at my disposal.

Suddenly the rock shines and its light blinded me, then I lost consciousness.

when I wake up, I could feel the knowledge of what abilities I have and what they all can do, I looked around and couldn't find the rock, which was logical as the information I received told me that the energy inside the rock was only enough for one absolute wish.

Now I'll do the first most logical thing in the situation I am in, I began to utilize my power [Reality Shifting] and moved to my homeworld to the very second after I died, seeing the change in the scene around me, as I was in the space and front of me is giant 'from my perspective 'blue planet I was beaming with joy.

But I was still afraid that all of this is just some kind of hallucinations, my mind came up with while I was still in the void.

So, I used my ability 'Telepathy' to read every mind on earth.

What? I was paranoid as fuck and I was in doubt, so reading billions of minds at the same time and confirming that there were billions of thoughts being generated, in a second, I was relieved, as I will surely not have that huge amount of brain processing power to generate these number of thoughts per second before the wish.

Meaning that my wish came true.

And if it hadn't happened, and I was in some kind of a hallucination, my mind who is the generator of this world wouldn't have been capable of sustaining it.

With the wish confirmed I used my powers to check if I was really in my homeworld, and it is, and I began to laugh like crazy, then after some time, I calmed down.

Then I used my ability [Creation] and created clothes and a body that looks just like me and assimilated with it, and dressed up, after that I searched for the place where I had died and went there and erased my previous body and the evidence that I died, next I teleported to my room in my house.

Everything is as I remember it to be, I open the door and went outside to the living room and found my mother, within a moment I was hugging her as my life depended on it, tears started to come out of my eyes, she didn't say anything and just hugged me back, after a minute or so I was still hugging her, but she asked.

"Son what happened to you, look like you had seen a ghost."

I calmed down after a while and laughed a little remembering that I was that ghost that I saw, then I started to talk.

"Well, you see..."

Two years have passed since I returned from the void, I told my parents everything that happened, they refused to believe the nonsense that they believed I was spewing at first, but after showing them my power and they had no choice but to believe what I said was the truth.

And since then, I started to make my parents' life easier, well I could have used [Creation] to create money or create goods or any other valuable stuff and sell them, or I could have just created what is necessary, but If I did that, I would feel like all the hard work I did before I died was in vain.

So, I searched the App Store, Google Play...etc. And began to think of apps they were lacking and what type of games people would find attractive. With those ideas in mind, I improved on them, and then began typing the codes for the apps, after finishing, which didn't take a lot, I released them, after that, I released a small undetectable virus on the internet that will make sure that my products will be properly publicized and not excessively so not to attract attention to it being something illegal.

And after about a month or so, my apps were trending, with that I was satisfied.

So here I am in my room in my own house, as I moved out from my parents' house.

Now that I fixed all my problems, I started playing games, watching movies and many YouTube videos, and reading various novels like I used to do before, most of the time just reading novels. but there was that thing that I always wanted to try, which is going to another world like those in the novels.

But I had to take care of my parents in the past two years and make sure they live a happy life, now that is done, I decided to confirm if the worlds in the novels exist or not.

I know they exist, and that is by using one of my abilities 'Encyclopedic Knowledge', it contains knowledge of all realities, and it tells me that there is an infinite number of realities, so I concluded that there is at least one reality for every novel I read or didn't read at all, yeah, infinite possibilities.

but I still decided to confirm their existence using my own eyes, just to feel more satisfied with myself, I used my power [Absolute Concealment] to conceal myself from any higher being in the place I am going to or in the way there, and the power [Reality Shifting] and moved to the Arifureta verse, suddenly I found myself in a classroom with the famous characters of Arifureta, there were Hajime, Kaori, Shizuku, Kouki...etc. They were doing the usual, which is bullying Hajime. Then I quickly shifted myself back to my home verse.

'That confirms that fictional worlds are real.'

With that I started to think of where to start my next adventure, after some time of contemplating I decided to go to Long Live Summons for several reasons:

1- I like the concept of cultivating as it is like leveling up but with more thinking behind it.

2- I was a huge fan of this novel as it isn't like any other Chinese novel out there.

3- come on I want to get some cool beasts and no Hui Tai Lang is included.

4- although I don't fear for my life as I always have my power [Absolute Immortality] on, it doesn't hurt to have two phoenixes of the Eastern Immortal Tribe acting like guards.

With that in mind, I used the abilities [Absolute Concealment], [Reincarnation], [Mind Manipulation] and [Reality Shifting] to reincarnate myself as Yue yang and conceal all my differences with the original Yue yang and to regain my memories at the moment that the Daoist priest throws me from the modern world to the fourth uncle house in White Stone City.

I choose to reincarnate as Yue Yang because a very embarrassing trait of mine I want to change or to be more precise I want to replace it with what Yue Yang had, which is, I don't know how to have fun, I want a bit of Yue Yang personality albeit he is a shameless pervert, I consider it a good trait for having fun if I am that shameless pervert and not someone else I am with.

I didn't tell my parents because I could come at any time passed in any verse and still decide what time would have passed in my home verse, nevertheless, I will still miss them.

I will also make some rules for me to follow so that I can't get bored quickly there, and that was I will not use my powers of [Complete Arsenal] excepts for [Absolute Concealment] and [Encyclopedic Knowledge], and the original Yue yang abilities.

[Absolute Concealment] will conceal my differences from the original Yue Yang.

[Encyclopedic Knowledge] contains all the knowledge I would ever want because my lack of knowledge is a very annoying thing to consider, and I will only use knowledge from that reality. You see, [Encyclopedic Knowledge] contains the knowledge of everything, so I can use some spells or runs to warp reality, and that will be very OP, I could use it for emergencies, but not for the daily stuff. And I may try to use some cultivation techniques off that reality but that is not for now.

For now, with the preparations one, which is only mentally, I used my abilities and passed out.
