334: Chapter 334 The Ferryman's Horrifying Experience Shatters Cause and Effect, The Gate to True Origin First Appears
"What are you dazing for? The guest is on board, hurry up and set sail. My interest in taking a stroll has just been piqued; don't you dare spoil my mood."
Zhou Wannian's voice of urging carried an extreme sense of relaxation.
In this gray-white Mist of Karma, it spread out with utter banality.
However.
This small black-awning boat, which had endured endless chaos epochs and was claimed to have never been stepped upon by a living being who survived...
At this moment, beneath Zhou Wannian's tall and straight green-robed figure, it let out a shrill, overburdened wail.
"Creak... Crack..."
On the surface of the boat's unknown black wood, a series of fine cracks split open.
This boat was originally forged from the purest "Karmic Sediment" of this multiverse.
It could carry the rise and fall of the heavens and myriad realms.
It could withstand the annihilation of the Great Primordial Void.
But it could not carry a Major Thousand Worlds that was a perfect closed loop of itself, untouched by even a speck of external Karma!
Zhou Wannian's inner universe, that absolute temporal closed loop formed by one hundred and eight clusters of time dao patterns.
The endless creative mass of the Great Five Elements Illusory World Art.
To this boat of Karma, it was like an indescribable ultimate divine mountain, ruthlessly smashing down onto a fragile withered leaf.
The Ferryman's featureless, gray-white swirling face.
At this moment, its flow completely froze.
His hands, gripping the black bamboo pole, trembled violently.
Not because of anger.
But because of an extreme shuddering originating from his underlying logic!
He felt it.
This Youth in Green Robe before him.
Was not resisting this Sea of Karma.
Rather, his very existence was forcibly rewriting and crushing all established rules of this dimension!
The Ferryman's ethereal and grand consciousness showed obvious fluctuations for the first time, even carrying a hint of unconcealable horror.
The Ferryman's voice trembled as he sent a transmission: "You... an inner universe of such mass... this boat... cannot ferry you!"
He tried to pull back the bamboo pole in his hand.
Trying to pull away from this terrifying variable.
But.
It was too late.
Zhou Wannian still stood steadily at the bow of the boat.
His washed-out Green Robe didn't even have an extra wrinkle amidst the rippling Mist of Karma.
He slightly raised his chin.
His eyes, deep as an ancient well, calmly looked at this ancient Ferryman who had fallen into a panic.
The corner of Zhou Wannian's mouth curled into an extremely easygoing, yet absolutely overbearing faint smile.
Zhou Wannian's tone was steady, as if evaluating a poor-quality ferry tool, as he spoke indifferently.
Zhou Wannian said with a composed expression: "Cannot ferry? Old man, you're the one opening a business here; it's one thing if your boat isn't sturdy, but how can you pick and choose your guests? Since this broken boat of yours can't carry me, then I'll just open a path myself."
As his words fell.
He did not form any complicated hand seals.
Even his hands remained casually behind his back.
He simply, in an extremely ordinary manner.
Facing this cracking small black-awning boat beneath his feet and this vast, boundless Sea of Karma.
Slightly lifted his right foot and plainly, gently stomped down!
Boom!
A heartbeat sound that seemed capable of shattering the Origin of the entire multiverse exploded beneath his feet!
The inner universe rules of the Great Five Elements Illusory World Art—perfectly self-consistent and transcending all dimensions.
At this moment, they erupted completely with a posture that was pure and overbearing to the extreme!
An incredible scene of despairing crushing was shockingly enacted at this end of Karma!
The power of Great Perfection Space Collapse followed Zhou Wannian's sole, like an indestructible cosmic divine needle, piercing straight into the bilge of this boat of Karma.
Bang!
That small black-awning boat, which had existed for an unknown number of epochs and was claimed to be immune to all Laws.
Under Zhou Wannian's stomp.
No deafening energy explosion occurred.
It was like an extremely fragile sand sculpture meeting a level-twelve gale head-on.
From bow to stern.
It fell apart in an instant!
Countless fragments of black wood were forcibly dismantled by the overbearing power of Great Perfection Five Elements Disintegration before they could even scatter in mid-air.
They turned into extremely fine karmic dust that danced in the air, drifting into the gray-white mist.
That featureless Ferryman.
When this world-destroying power erupted, he didn't even have time to let out a scream.
His body, composed of pure karmic vortices.
Under the crushing force of the five-colored glazed barrier on Zhou Wannian's body surface.
Was like brittle paper weathered for billions of years.
It disintegrated inch by inch, turning into nothingness!
An instant kill!
A true, absolute instant kill at the level of rules and dimensions!
There wasn't even a margin for resistance.
This ancient existence who had guarded the end of Karma for countless ages was, along with his ferry.
Completely "erased" from this dimension by Zhou Wannian's casual stomp.
However.
This was merely the beginning.
With the fall of that foot.
Zhou Wannian's inner universe power did not stop expanding.
One hundred and eight clusters of golden time dao patterns, brilliant as blazing suns, erupted with an ultimate golden light that could blind all gods around him.
Great Perfection Time Reversal.
Great Perfection Five Elements Disintegration.
These two supreme Laws turned into an invisible dimensional storm.
With Zhou Wannian as the center.
It swept frantically toward this Sea of Karma filled with gray-white mist!
Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle!
Continuous, ear-piercing snapping sounds exploded densely in the void.
Those gray-white karmic threads that were originally interwoven in space, representing the fate of all living beings in the heavens and myriad realms.
The moment they touched this dimensional storm.
They melted and snapped frantically, like snow under a blazing sun!
They could not withstand the absolute exclusivity of Zhou Wannian's perfect inner universe.
The underlying logic of this Sea of Karma was being forcibly crushed by Zhou Wannian's extreme brutality!
In just half a breath's time.
The karmic mist within a radius of millions of miles was completely swept away.
Those annoying threads were overbearingly purified into the most basic harmless Spiritual Qi by the Great Five Elements Laws.
Forcing open, at this very end of Karma.
An absolutely clean, absolutely unobstructed glazed grand path!
The violent turbulence of Laws gradually calmed down.
Zhou Wannian.
Still stood steadily in place.
His tall and straight green-robed figure, upon this forcibly cleared Sea of Karma, was like a true God of Creation.
Unstained by a single speck of dust.
His expression was as composed as before.
He casually dusted his sleeves, as if he had just stepped on and crushed a piece of rotten wood blocking his way.
Zhou Wannian slightly raised his chin, his eyes deep as an ancient well penetrating the remaining thin mist ahead, looking into the deepest part of the end of Karma.
Zhou Wannian's tone was steady, with a bit of leisurely laziness, as he evaluated indifferently: "The boat is too broken, the water too dirty. This way of crossing the river is truly too unrefined. It's still the path one walks out oneself that feels steady underfoot."
He did not linger any longer.
He took steady and relaxed steps.
Stepping on the invisible stairs paved by his own Great Perfection Laws.
With his hands behind his back and his green shirt flowing.
Like a casual stroll, he walked unhurriedly forward along that forcibly opened glazed grand path.
He did not know how long he had walked on this grand path.
The gray-white mist around him finally dissipated completely.
Ahead.
There were no more Impurities.
What entered Zhou Wannian's sight.
Was a magnificent giant gate, so massive it completely exceeded the limits of cognition, forged entirely from a strange substance that appeared absolutely transparent yet radiated an endless profound luster.
This gate.
Had no doorframe and no door panels.
It was like the ultimate end of the entire multiverse and all dimensions, yet also like the initial starting point of everything.
It stood quietly at the end of this Sea of Karma.
Radiating an aura of primordial antiquity and extreme purity of Origin that would make even a Creator submit and worship.
This.
Was what the Ferryman called—the Realm of True Origin.
The true birthplace of the Great Primordial Void.
The intersection of all "being" and "non-being."
Zhou Wannian stopped his pace.
Standing in the void less than ten thousand zhang from this "Gate of True Origin."
In his eyes, which were usually like still water, a hint of extremely obvious, unconcealed amazement and thick interest flashed for the first time.
He could clearly feel it.
Behind the gate.
There was no Heavenly Dao.
There were no Laws.
There weren't even the basic concepts of "time" and "space."
What existed.
Was only the purest "primal origin mud" that could evolve into all possibilities.
Zhou Wannian looked at that transparent giant gate.
The corner of his mouth curled into an extremely brilliant, leisurely smile filled with endless expectation.
Zhou Wannian's tone was steady, carrying a joy from finally finding a fun object, as he spoke indifferently: "Peeling away layers of rotten mud, I've finally seen the cleanest foundation of this Universe. Since I'm here, I might as well go in and see if this primitive mud can be molded into some little toys that suit my fancy."
