"The Holy Tree now hopes for you to do something. As long as you do it, youâll win the favor of the Holy Tree."
"What is it?" Shen Ye asked.
Another line of small characters appeared:
"Stop the duel between those two outside!"
Damn it.
Weâre back to this again!
Shen Ye couldnât help but curse, but then noticed the glowing patterns emerging on the walls of the passage.
These patterns seemed to have life, quickly converging to form a rune.
ââRunes are the condensations of the Power of the Magical Realm.
It floated over, landing in Shen Yeâs hand.
Bangââ
The rune scattered, transforming into countless streams of light.
These streams of light danced around Shen Ye for a while, then completely merged into his body.
A piece of information immediately emerged in Shen Yeâs mind.
About those two people.
ââHigher-Dimensional Being and Destruction Doomsday.
The tree collected the aura and a tiny piece of the essence from both sides, creating "human bodies" that completely matched their characteristics.
This was to deduce their abilities, in order to understand their weaknesses and prepare for the future.
But something unexpected happened.
The "human bodies" that were created contained just a trace of their power, yet cooperated to come up with a way of self-preservationââ
They collided with each other.
Just like particles, they used their most fundamental and pure power to endlessly collide with each other.
This collision exploded into an endless array of power types.
One of these happened to suppress the Holy Tree.
There was nothing it could do.
The Holy Tree was thoroughly trapped in its own technique.
ââAn experimental technique it performed to defeat the Higher-Dimensional Being and Destruction Doomsday.
A misty voice suddenly rang in Shen Yeâs ear:
"You are an exceptionally capable human, there is no doubt about that."
"Go nowââ"
"Find a way to make them stop."
"Iâve observed them for countless years; as long as they stop, I can find a way to deal with them. Once Iâm out, I can get rid of them!"
"ââI will acknowledge you as my master!!!"
All voices suddenly vanished.
Shen Ye snapped back and saw a contract radiating infinite golden light floating in front of him.
It had written the exact words spoken just now.
The will of the Holy Tree had left a mark on the contract.
ââThere was nothing wrong with this contract.
So it is said.
If I can stop the duel between the two powerhouses.
ââThe Holy Tree will no longer support the monsters!
Because it has changed its master, it must obey my orders.
Speaking of which.
Even if not for the Holy Tree, to complete the Eternal Poem Mission, I must stop the duel.
But.
How should I do it?
Shen Ye pondered, examining his abilities again.
Sword techniques, strengthened in power.
The skill rank had also improved, but it couldnât be used to stop the duel.
What else is there...
Got it.
Gate power.
ââThe gate power has also ascended by one rank!
As Shen Ye willed, lines of small glowing text suddenly appeared:
"Your gate has ascended.â
"Currently, your âSpirit Ruins Gateâ has advanced to Holy Position, its name is:"
"Wind Gate."
"One of the Four Saints, Creator of the Boundless Void."
"Description: Leads to the place you specify, no matter where; or severs, seals, and isolates the path."
Shen Ye couldnât take his eyes off this line of introductions for a long time.
The final mission of the Eternal Poem.
Its reward actually allowed all of my powers and abilities to ascend by one rank.
Even the gate has reached this level!
Itâs simply unimaginable.
Shen Ye took a deep breath, raised his hand, and pressed it into the void.
"Gate."
He called out in a low voice.
A door appeared silently.
Accompanied by the corresponding prompt:
"You have summoned the âWind Gateâ."
"Currently, the âWind Gateâ leads to the place you wish to go:"
"A world outside the entrapment of the âHoly Treeâ."
"Open the gate to leave."
Shen Ye quickly read it through.
All the small characters flickered and quickly vanished.
Gate.
It quietly floated in front of him.
Just by opening the gate, he could leave the Holy Tree and head to other worlds!
Butââ
Shen Ye suddenly snapped his fingers.
"Dispel."
Bang.
With a light sound, the door disappeared.
ââThis door canât be opened!
Frankly speaking, from the Myriad Realms to Aether, and then from Aether to Historical Fragments, Era of Entropy Destruction, Other Shore Ship, Misty Futureââ
All of this is because the Holy Tree is searching for the weaknesses of those two entities, and then was trapped by the very entities it created.
It cannot escape!
Precisely for this reason, humans have a slight chance to overcome the monsters attached to it.
If.
If I open the gate, allowing it to escape this predicament.
Even if itâs just a branchââ
It will escape unharmed.
"What a pity," Shen Ye said softly, "I canât let you escape just yet."
Before the words finished.
He suddenly raised his hand, summoning the Wind Gate again.
"Su Su?"
Shen Ye called out sternly.
ââApart from myself, the only one who can control my body is the Parasitic Empress, Su Su.
"Sorry, Shen Ye."
Su Suâs voice sounded, carrying an indescribable complexity:
"I suddenly remembered everything."
"Youâre right, the Holy Tree is indeed a Dharma Aspect created by a Truth Creation."
"That Truth Creationââ"
"is called âTruth Landâ."
"All Truth Creations are part of it."
Shen Ye was too shocked to breathe.
So that meansââ
"Indeed," Uncle Qiâs voice followed, "I remember now tooââitâs probably because this moment is extremely crucial, the seal on us has been lifted."
"We are all âTruth Landâ."
The voice of the Soul Capturing Net joined in:
"Everything was my deduction, including letting humans multiply, to find an existence that can solve the predicament."
"Nowââ"
"We are Truth Land, controlling you, to open the gate, completely liberating me!"
Shen Yeâs hand pressed against the gate.
Next.
He only needed to pushââ
The Holy Tree trapped in the duel could escape the predicament.
"Hmph."
Soon, Shen Ye burst into a dark intense flame all over his body.
Doomsday Fire!
This fire cannot be suppressed, controlled, or limited by any power!
Shen Ye trembled all over, took a step back, and his hand gradually moved away from the Wind Gate.
Just then.
A pair of delicate hands stretched out, holding Shen Yeâs arm.
"What are you waiting for?"
With a female voice, Charlotte stepped out from behind Shen Ye.
"Are you also a part of âTruth Landâ?"
Shen Ye couldnât help asking.
Charlotte smiled and explained:
"âTruth Landâ couldnât withstand the power of the duel, and has shattered into countless Truth Creations."
"But those Truth Creations with insufficient strength, like Su Su and the others, are still controlled by the landâs will at certain moments."
"What about you?" Shen Ye pressed on.
Charlotte leaned towards him and kissed him on the cheek:
"I, ah, was born with many personasââand every one of my personas is independent; it canât control me," Charlotte said.
Shen Ye couldnât help but recall those times.
ââSince she was a little girl, I had saved her!
Now.
She is a Truth Creation with independent self-thought!
"Since thatâs the case, I wonât pretend anymore either."
Shen Ye said.
He radiated a unique wave of power.
This power, in past times, and even in the Era of Entropy Destruction, couldnât be found or known.
ââAfter completing the âEternal Nightâ mission, his profession has ascended by one level.
"Life Maker."
"Future Professional Level 3."
"Professional Skills: Void Creation."
