Ship.
Shrouded in a grey mist, completely different from before.
Shen Ye hesitated a bit.
But the entire ship had already been altered by the "Creation Technique".
He had to make contact with it.
If normal communication could be established, then his situation wouldnât be too dangerous.
As Shen Ye thought this, he took a step forward.
Crunch.
A light sound.
Shen Yeâs whole body swayed.
Looking down, he found his foot stuck in a broken iron plate.
ââThis was the floor that had been destroyed in the previous battle.
"Hissââ"
Shen Ye drew a sharp breath in pain and then pulled hard.
ââThe foot didnât come out!
A line of faint glowing text suddenly popped up:
"An extremely lucky event has occurred once!"
Shen Ye was momentarily stunned.
My foot got stuck here.
Is this called lucky?
Wait a minute...
With my kind of existence, how could I not see that hole?
He pondered, pulled out his foot, and walked forward again.
Crashââ
The foot got stuck again!
The faint glowing text popped up again:
"Luck doubled!"
Shen Ye slowly retreated.
ââRetreating was quite smooth, and nothing unexpected happened.
This proved one thingââ
Unable to move forward, is extremely lucky.
Suddenly, Shen Ye remembered the man who left, saying "Good luck to you."
...So this sentence had a deeper meaning.
Alright.
Then I wonât move forward!
He turned around and walked straight to the edge of the deck, looking at the stairs leading down.
ââItâs said this is the "already prepared parallel world," the "safest moment of this ship".
Then letâs go in first!
Now, he couldnât use "Void Creation", so staying safe for a while was the priority.
Shen Ye stepped onto the stairs.
Behind him, from the direction of Area C, a sharp and eerie sound suddenly echoed.
It seemed something was coming.
ââShould I take a look?
As Shen Ye hesitated, an invisible force suddenly hit him, freezing him in place.
The faint glowing text instantly appeared:
"You have been immobilized by some entity that was born on the ship."
"This is a Mind Technique and cannot be avoided."
"Warning!"
"You are currently unable to move and are about to be preyed upon!"
Whatââ
It immobilized me just like that!
Shen Ye immediately tried to summon his other two avatars, but unexpectedly, his foot slipped, and he tumbled down the stairs.
He rolled all the way down the steps, landing on a wide surface.
Unbelievable!
Could he really fall like this?
Shen Ye found it hard to believe, but noticed that the technique had been lifted.
ââAfter all, this was already another world, and the other partyâs thoughts could not extend here!
Shen Ye jumped up and looked up.
The stairs above still stood there intact.
But the topmost step was broken.
This separation from the Main World formed parallel worlds that didnât interfere with each other.
Not only that.
Shen Ye realized he was now on a normal Other Shore Ship.
ââThis was the Other Shore that hadnât been modified by futuristic monsters!
Two lines of faint glowing text silently appeared:
"Three instances of luck have been used up."
"From now on, youâll have to rely on yourself."
Shen Ye steadied himself.
Three instances of luck!
They virtually pushed him into this parallel world!
ââIt seemed that if he had stayed on that ship, it would have been certain doom.
Shen Ye slowly calmed down.
"Tsk."
He spat out a mouthful of blood and leaned against the railing, slowly sitting on the ground.
Too exhausting.
As an A-level Professional, barely participating in S-level and super-S level battles had already drained his spirit and Strength.
"Uncle Qi...save me..." Shen Ye groaned.
The void flashed.
An instant noodle and a bottle of chilled cola appeared in front of him.
The noodles were steaming hot.
"This is the quickest, have a bite first, Iâm preparing a big meal," Uncle Qiâs hurried voice sounded.
"Thanks." Shen Ye forced himself to sit up, took a sip of the chilled cola to refresh himself, and then started to slowly eat the noodles.
The noodles were really delicious.
He drank all the soup too.
Two lines of faint glowing text timely appeared in the void:
"Completed an instance of feeding."
"Your injuries have healed a little."
Not enough!
Still not enough!
Yet Shen Ye didnât push it, just sat there quietly waiting.
Fortunately, Uncle Qi was extremely efficient.
"Done!" he shouted.
"What is it?" Shen Ye asked eagerly.
Swishââ
Two more instant noodles and four bottles of chilled cola appeared before Shen Ye.
"...6." Shen Ye said.
"No, not that," Uncle Qi said, "have these first, Iâm still cooking the big meal."
What could Shen Ye say?
He indeed loved instant noodles, and upon another lookâthere was even a sausage insideâthe combination was quite reasonable.
Besides, was he eating just for the sake of eating?
He was undergoing treatment!
"Void Creation" needed three days to recover.
This was because his Strength wasnât enough.
If he used the "Future Walker" to boost his Strength, even temporarily, perhaps it could shorten the cooldown time of "Void Creation".
But now Iâve overexerted myself.
Only eating what Uncle Qi makes can help me quickly recover and use the "Future Walker" again!
Shen Ye slurped noodles from the bowl, occasionally sipping iced cola, eating with great relish.
Uncle Qiâs feast was finally ready.
A dozen dishes and a roasted whole lamb were served.
Shen Ye let loose and ate to his heartâs content, finishing all the food completely.
"Fullâah, really fullâand my body is healed!"
He wiped the sweat off his forehead and rested for a while.
Waiting for his body to gradually return to its optimal state.
He suddenly took out a wall, placed it on the deck, and called:
"Maria."
"Wait a moment," Mariaâs mural appeared on the wall, "thereâs another me hereâfrom a parallel world."
"Do you want us to coexist, or should I replace her?"
"Either is fine, I have no opinion, you decide." Shen Ye said.
"Donât you want me to become stronger?"
Maria said meaningfully.
Shen Ye understood.
"Is the other you willing?" he asked.
"Willing, our wills are connected," Maria said.
Before the words could fade.
Another Maria appeared in the mural.
Both Marias looked at Shen Ye, smiling expectantly.
âAlthough the situation seemed a bit strange, Shen Ye already knew what he had to do.
He reached out with both hands.
The two Marias leaned down, each holding one of his hands.
"Fusion."
Shen Ye whispered.
Instantly.
Lines of tiny, glowing text appeared:
"You have activated the entry âMandala Uroborosâ, fusing the two Holy Mothers into one."
"Due to extremely high compatibility, this fusion has once again resulted in Super Evolution."
"The True Holy Mother Mary has descended."
Shen Ye stepped back a few steps, looking at the woman in the mural, feeling that she seemed somewhat different from before.
"Shen Ye, hidden in the Other Shore Ship, I guard an ultimate secret."
The Holy Mother Mary said.
"What is it?" Shen Ye asked.
"I canât say yetârevealing it would lead to the destruction of everything," Maria said.
Shen Ye was speechless.
If you canât tell, why tease my interest?
"Donât be disappointed."
Maria reached out from the mural, gently tapping his forehead:
"Those who can reach here are unbelievably exceptional beings and will surely receive the mission I bear."
Shen Ye felt her finger lightly brush against him.
Suddenly, lines of tiny, glowing text appeared before his eyes:
"You have received the Holy Mother Maryâs recognition."
"Detected that you have contacted the Other Shore, contacted the future, and assumed future professions, thus bypassed all bans, obtaining special permission."
"You have reached âmatch pointâ."
"Current activation of the final mission task of the Eternal Poem:"
"Awakening."
"The truth behind all illusions, the initiation of the fourth mission, the touch guarding the ultimate secret."
"Description: Survive on the real Other Shore Ship until you find that final precious door and inherit its power."
"Mission Reward: The Holy Mother Mary will personally tell you about the fourth mission, which is the ultimate secret."
"âIt is the last step, and also the true beginning."
Shen Ye quickly read through, pondered, and met the gaze of the Holy Mother Mary.
"Although the ultimate secret cannot be told, there are some things I can talk to you about."
Holy Mother Mary said.
"What thing?" Shen Ye asked.
"Now in the âpresent,â youâre the only one left. Do you know why that is?" The Holy Mother Mary asked.
Shen Ye sighed and said, "Yeah, I can only summon everyone briefly, and they descend upon meâIâm always alone, why is that?"
"Because the root of all strength is the Dharma Realm."
"The core rule of the Dharma Realm is the âPromotion Systemââbesides strength, one needs to respond quickly, make the wisest strategic choices, survive under various circumstances, gain benefits, and step upward one by one."
"In this process, those eliminated are stuck in their original âworldâ."
"Only those who persistently climb upward will continuously âchange worldsâ, just like you."
Shen Ye listened and couldnât help asking:
"So I stand at the âhighest pointâ recognized by the Dharma Realm?"
"Correct." Maria said.
"I find it hard to believeâthat man who descended upon me and the high-dimensional lords are much stronger than me."
"Why canât they come here in the end?"
"Why am I the only one here!"
"Why is that?"
Maria shook her head with a smile: "Their matters are related to the ultimate secret and cannot be said."
"âIf you find that door in the Other Shore, I will tell you."
The matter returned to his own mission.
Shen Ye couldnât help but sigh again.
This is too hard.
It was due to the strength of "luck" that he didnât advance recklessly but retreated to this parallel world to rest.
If he had advanced earlierâ
The outcome would be uncertain.
"I have a question," Shen Ye said.
"You may ask." Maria said.
"If I had stayed in the Main World and fought the Other Shore Ship, what would have been the result?" Shen Ye asked.
"You would be decayed by entropy," Maria said.
"Now that I have regained physical strength and go there to fight?"
"The result will not change."
"...Understood."
Simply wouldnât survive!
How can he find that door hidden on the ship?
Shen Ye fell into deep thought.
He stood on the ship, contemplating his strategy against them.
Time slowly passed.
Two days went by.
Suddenly, his eyes lit up as he spoke: "Maria, that ship became invincible after being transformed, right?"
"Yes," Maria confirmed, "that future monster is extremely powerful, it directly subdued the Other Shoreâyouâve thought of a strategy?"
"Fighting wonât work, must gather intelligence first." Shen Ye said.
"But if you go there now, you will die," Maria shook her head.
"No need to go over to gather intelligence on that shipâthough simplified, itâs still useful."
Shen Ye said.
Maria was puzzled:
"I donât understand."
Shen Ye kneeled on one knee, pressing his hand to the floor, whispered:
"There is an Other Shore here too, andâ"
"I, like that monster, can also use âVoid Creationâ."
In an instant.
Shen Yeâs technique was activated.
The ground shook incessantly.
A long, grand call sounded from deep within the Other Shore Ship.
âThe ship came to life!
