Gates of the Myriad Realms Chapter 717
byThe future.
The entire future is spread throughout the Dharma Realm.
But—
The Dharma Realm is the Gate of Wind.
Any being, once they arrive in the future, is sent back to the “past” by the gate.
This cycle continues.
The future becomes the past.
The state of time becomes—
Arriving at the “present” from the “past”, passing through the Age of Entropy, reaching the “future”, and instantly returning to the “past”.
This is a closed loop!
The Holy Tree of Truth’s hope of “passing through the Age of Entropy to reach the future and escape the two powerful beings” was completely dashed.
—No.
There was one last way.
Destroy the Gate of Wind!
As long as the Dharma Realm collapses and the existence possessing the Gate of Wind dies—
The gate will naturally no longer be able to envelop the entire “future”!
Rumble—
Infinite power overshadowed the sky, swirling high above Shen Ye and Charlotte.
“It’s here,” Shen Ye growled.
“Summon me anytime, I’ll help you expand your Dharmakaya for battle!” Charlotte instructed, then disappeared behind him.
Shen Ye—
Or rather.
The fusion of young Shen Ye and少年沈夜.
He assumed a fighting stance, quietly waiting for that boundless power to descend.
One breath.
Two breaths.
Three breaths.
The boundless power, like wind and clouds, roared away.
The voice of the Holy Tree followed:
“What are you hiding?”
“—What do future events have to do with you?”
“How would I know?” Shen Ye said.
The Holy Tree suddenly erupted in an angry roar:
“No, I can feel it, you have countless connections to the future, tell me everything you know!”
Before Shen Ye could speak, shafts of light shackles emerged from the void, binding him.
At the same time.
Time flowed backward continuously.
Everything retrogressed to a certain predetermined moment in the past.
Shen Ye struggled forcefully, but found that the power of the light shackles far exceeded his imagination, making it impossible to break free!
Lines of faint light text quietly appeared:
“The Truth-Sovereign.”
“Even if you have gained double U-level strength, against the Holy Tree’s unparalleled holy art, you can only endure.”
“You have been struck by the Holy Art · ???”
“Description: ?????”
“This is an extremely profound fruit of emergence, and you are merely a mundane double U-level strong being from all realms.”
“You can only endure it.”
What—
Shen Ye was startled, feeling that the pillar of light binding him began to transform into chains.
One end of the chain was connected to him, the other extended deep into the high void, hanging from the Holy Tree of Truth.
The Holy Tree’s voice boomed:
“I never thought I would use such an art on a mortal.”
“This is the last honor of your life.”
“And I will know everything about you—”
“I am you!”
As soon as the words fell.
Everything vanished from Shen Ye’s sight.
Time came to a certain special juncture—
Countless laws swept over, constructing corresponding time, space, and destiny in an instant.
All dimensions were established.
Thus, yesterday replayed before Shen Ye’s eyes.
Familiar streets.
Crowded people.
The traffic light remained red.
Across the busy street was a high school.
Everything seemed to solidify, like a specimen in amber, completely unmoving.
Silence.
Silence.
Amidst the silence—
Another Shen Ye quietly appeared.
He wore a white shirt, carrying a briefcase, walking down the street, his gaze fixed on Shen Ye:
“I have too much power, endless power.”
“Just a little bit of it can bring prosperity to the human world, pushing it into a glorious civilization.”
“But do you think everything is free?”
Shen Ye tried.
He still couldn’t move.
But something was happening in his mind.
Not just his mind, but even his body and soul began to enter a state of “experience.”
Faint lines of text quietly appeared:
“You are a Third-Order Fate Weaver.”
“You possess three professional abilities, of which the second is ‘to perceive all of the target’s abilities, instantly comprehend their mysteries, and summon the same power to unleash them’.”
“However, the current holy art is too powerful, complex, and infinitely mysterious, thus your professional ability has not been activated.”
“You need to observe longer.”
“The longer you observe, the more you will understand this art.”
“Perhaps at some point, you will be able to activate the power of the ‘Fate Weaver’.”
Observe!
An indescribable feeling surged in Shen Ye’s heart.
He was personally experiencing the opponent’s holy art.
But it wasn’t enough!
He couldn’t fully comprehend it yet!
“If it’s not free, how do you plan to charge?”
Shen Ye asked.
—As long as he could stall for a bit longer, chatting with the other party for a few more words was nothing!
The other Shen Ye snapped his fingers.
The traffic light flickered.
Green light.
Cars started moving.
Pedestrians hurried along.
Across the street.
The school bell rang, signaling the start of classes.
Restaurants, supermarkets, and companies along the street became lively.
The whole world started to move!
The Shen Ye embodied by the Holy Tree started walking towards a company.
“Even if you have achieved so much, becoming strong enough to play a crucial role at that moment—”
“I can replace you.”
“Watch, I will experience everything you have experienced, and then find your secret!”
He spoke as he walked.
Shen Ye, however, could only float in mid-air, silently listening to his words.
—So this was the art.
First, it directly acquired everything of the enemy;
Second, it could replace the enemy.
As its enemy, one was completely powerless to resist!
An endless stream of insights emerged in Shen Ye’s mind, and he began to comprehend the opponent’s art more deeply.
Meanwhile—
The Shen Ye transformed from the Holy Tree was crossing the road.
Suddenly.
A large truck sped towards him.
Just as it was about to hit the Shen Ye transformed from the Holy Tree, he glared at it, and it stopped dead in its tracks.
“All the hardships you’ve experienced cannot befall me.”
“And I will acquire everything you have.”
Shen Ye’s eyes flew open wide.
Vast information surged into his mind like a torrent, making him fully understand the secret of the other party.
It worked!
He had comprehended this art of theirs!
In an instant.
Lines of faint light text rapidly appeared:
“The other party personally explained the effect of this art, yet did not know that you are a future professional, a ‘Fate Weaver’.”
“As a Third-Order Fate Weaver, you have comprehended this art of the other party, knowing its name and power as follows:”
“Life-Stripping Heart-Devouring.”
“Holy Art.”
“Description: Directly replaces you, wandering in your destiny until it acquires everything you possess.”
“—Holy Arts are irresistible.”
Irresistible!
Shen Ye’s heart trembled.
Since even resistance was impossible, what was the point of playing this game?!
Anyone.
Before the Holy Tree, they were all ridiculous clowns, completely unable to contend with it.
At this rate.
How could he possibly win?
Might as well all just surrender!
Shen Ye was at his wit’s end.
Just as he despaired, a flash of inspiration suddenly struck his mind.
“…That’s right, how could I forget this.”
He raised his hand.
Vast and magnificent magical fluctuations immediately appeared on his hand.
Yes.
After fully comprehending this art, with the power of a “Fate Weaver,” he could unleash it!
Shen Ye immediately formed hand seals and cast the art.
The next instant.
He vanished.
“What the hell?” the Shen Ye transformed from the Holy Tree asked.
No one answered.
“Hmph, good then, a clean death is fine.”
It no longer paid attention to the matter.
—After all, it had already acquired the other party’s identity.
Next—
It only needed to experience everything of the other party.
The Holy Tree Shen Ye thought silently.
Next.
He experienced everything of Shen Ye—
Such as becoming a sales champion, dying of illness and transmigrating, becoming another Shen Ye, and then everything gradually happening…
“So that’s how it is, humans are indeed a small but endlessly potential race.”
The Holy Tree Shen Ye sighed.
At this point, he had completely replaced Shen Ye, having just left the myriad realms, passed through the aether, and arrived at the historical fragments.
Time slowly passed.
He finally reached that node—
About to acquire the “Gate of Separation”!
But at this moment.
Something happened!
In the midst of nothingness, the phantom of the Holy Tree appeared.
“Shen Ye” nodded:
“I already know everything, now I can—”
It was speaking complacently, but suddenly stopped.
Because it discovered something terrifying.
“Who are you?”
The Holy Tree Shen Ye’s face was grim, and he almost roared.
Across from him.
That Holy Tree with boundless power—
It was no longer a part of him!
Who could achieve this?
“Don’t be nervous.”
On the Holy Tree of Dharmakaya, a voice with infinite power rang out:
“You used ‘Life-Stripping Heart-Devouring’ on me, becoming me—”
“What could I do?”
“I had to also use ‘Life-Stripping Heart-Devouring’ to become you.”
“Now we have swapped.”
“Are you satisfied?”
The Holy Tree—
Of course, now he was the true Shen Ye.
His voice echoed throughout the void, then quickly transformed into endless spells, striking at the Holy Tree Shen Ye.
—The Holy Tree became Shen Ye, and Shen Ye became the Holy Tree.
So.
In terms of information, both sides had already shared it.
In terms of strength—
Shen Ye was the Holy Tree now!
This meeting was to act before the other party gained the power to go to the future!
This exchange was truly not a loss.
“You deserve to die!”
The Holy Tree Shen Ye roared.
“Do you want to swap back? But please note, once you swap back, you won’t be able to go to the future,” Shen Ye chuckled.
He only said half of it.
If they didn’t swap back—
The strength of “Shen Ye” was inferior to that of the “Holy Tree.”
—The being currently holding the identity of “Shen Ye” would be directly killed by the being currently holding the identity of the “Holy Tree”!
