"It stopped."
The young Shen Ye said in amazement.
Not far behind him.
In the void.
The ship suddenly halted in place, trembling continuously, but no longer pursuing.
"Yes," Shen Ye said, "itâs temporarily merging with the ship I enlightened, currently struggling."
"Are they all future creations?"
"Yes."
"...A good opportunity."
Shen Ye clasped his hands into a spell seal, and boundless stars suddenly appeared in the void, like a vast ocean.
Buzzâ
In the midst of intense reverberations.
Countless starlights illuminated the Other Shore Ship, revealing an even more enormous outline of light on its surface.
"Boss, may I ask what this is?"
Shen Ye asked.
"A sealing skillâwe indeed havenât battled with future creations yet and donât know their abilities, but this technique can dissipate all power transmission fluctuations in the void."
"In this way, it temporarily cannot call out to that distant future owner."
The boss responded.
"Can you come with me to seize the gate on the ship?" Shen Ye asked.
"Of course, since the other you is definitely not a match for that ship," said the boss.
"Letâs go!"
He fully sprinted, crossing the endless stars, landing on the ship, and immediately heading towards the direction of the captainâs room.
On the ship.
The young Shen Ye opened a door, stepped across, and arrived at the captainâs room.
At a glance, he saw the secret room in the spacious room.
âThe gate was placed in the secret room!
But the young man did not move.
Because there was an unexpected presence in the captainâs room.
A monster with a constantly changing physique stood in front of the secret room, blocking the way.
Soul-Imbued Ball!
âWasnât it supposed to be dead?
Shen Yeâs expression became serious.
Not that he feared an S-level monster.
Comparatively, what truly caught his attention was the fact that the whole incident was beyond his understanding.
What on earth is going on?
"I knew long ago that humanity reaching the Other Shore is an extremely ominous event that must be stopped."
The Soul-Imbued Ball said.
"Why canât humans reach the Other Shore? Donât make reckless statements, or Iâll accuse you of racial discrimination," Shen Ye asked innocently.
His gaze shifted, looking at the secret room behind the Soul-Imbued Ball.
A line of tiny glowing words appeared next to the secret room:
"Your gate power is suppressed before this gate, unable to take effect."
âImpressive indeed.
If it was just to complete the task earlier, then at this moment, Shen Yeâs heart suddenly burned hot.
The gate power hidden within should be the strongest.
It must be acquired!
Shen Ye turned his hand to place a small silver snake behind him, letting it vanish.
"Because everything on the Other Shore is already predetermined; the future will inevitably be a future already determined, and you wish to change it all."
The Soul-Imbued Ball said.
"I donât understand," Shen Ye said.
"You will lead everything to destruction," the Soul-Imbued Ball said.
"Havenât the passengers on the ship already perished completely? Thatâs not my doing," Shen Ye said.
He suddenly realized something.
Something very important.
"Wait...youâre not the Soul-Imbued Ball, who are you?" Shen Ye asked.
This creatureâs aura was stranger and stronger than the Soul-Imbued Ballâs.
Its attitude was also more defined than the Soul-Imbued Ballâs.
Ifâ
Under the attack of future monsters, all passengers on the ship died, with no survivors.
Then who is this Soul-Imbued Ball in front of him?
How did it survive?
In terms of strength, he couldnât completely gauge its depth.
...Not good.
Shen Ye drew out the You Huang Blade, ready to take action, but saw the Soul-Imbued Ballâs gaze flash.
Strong technique fluctuations suddenly enveloped Shen Ye.
He was struck!
But by what?
Boomâ
Shen Ye was knocked back, crashing into the wall, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
The Blood Bull Ring on his finger instantly shrunk by a whole circle.
So strong!
âIt was pupil skill.
The opponent simply glanced at him and took down a line of his health!
"Who are you, really?"
Shen Ye asked.
"My identity is the fundamental secret of everything; youâre not qualified to know," the Soul-Imbued Ball said.
The void opened.
Another Shen Ye descended.
âThe young Shen Ye and the young man Shen Ye simultaneously assumed defensive postures, preparing to face the enemy.
"Itâs useless," the Soul-Imbued Ball said, "you have already threatened everything; Iâve decided to let you undergo entropy here, to be permanently erased."
As it spoke, both Shen Yes simultaneously formed spell seals.
Dharma Manifestationâ
Guardian Prison·Zisi Festival!
Guardian Prison·Heart-Eroding Puppet!
âBoth dharma manifestations simultaneously unfolded!
In an instant.
The entire room was surrounded by white bones.
Shen Ye spoke:
"I have no real grudge against you; why not make peace?"
"Feigning goodwill?" the Soul-Imbued Ball said disdainfully, "Donât play such tricks in front of me."
Impossible.
Shen Ye quickly thought to himself.
The dharma manifestation released by the Truth Creation "Parasitic Empress" can extend goodwill; once the enemy accepts, they will expose all information before me.
âUnexpectedly, the Soul-Imbued Ball knew the operation mechanism of his dharma manifestation!
"Su Su."
Shen Ye called.
"I never said so," Su Suâs voice rang out from the dharma manifestation.
Shen Ye nodded slightly.
Su Su had always been by his side.
She couldnât possibly reveal her power characteristics and mechanisms.
This dharma manifestation does not increase combat strength; its power lies in understanding all information about the enemy.
âOnce you comprehend everything about the enemy, the battle is almost over.
Then.
How did the Soul-Imbued Ball know the secret of this dharma manifestation?
"Be careful, itâs going to make a move."
The boss reminded.
Shen Ye regained his senses, only to see a vast phantom appear behind the Soul-Imbued Ball, rushing towards him like a torrent, instantly enveloping him within.
The void flashed.
He found himself standing in a blank world.
