The mastermind behind the scenes starting with the calamity of all races

Everyone understood. In other words, Wen Yu had feelings for Yun Jie? Otherwise, why would she keep coming to see Yun Jie?

"Yun Ying, you're overthinking it."

At this moment, Jiang Yao spoke up.

She said, "I'm unhappy, not because of that, but because..."

“Because I’m preparing to leave,” Yun Jie continued.

He glared at Yun Ying first, then said, "I was planning to talk about this after dinner, but Yun Ying insisted on interfering! Since that's the case, I won't hide it from you anymore."

"After this meal, I will be leaving, leaving the myriad realms, leaving this chaos, and heading to the outside world. The road ahead is unknown, and I don't know how many years it will be before I can return. So, I thought I would like to see you all one last time."

Seeing that everyone wanted to say something, Yun Jie raised his hand to stop them, "Don't say anything. I've already thought it through. Besides, there's no need to worry about me. Now, let's eat. I've cooked all the dishes tonight. You're in for a treat."

Yun Jie chuckled and served everyone a little food, then quietly ate by himself.

Parting is always sad, so the meal was eaten in a somber mood.

"I'm stuffed."

Yun Jie put down his chopsticks and said with a smile, "Then, I'll leave the cleaning up to you."

"By the way, there's no need to be too sad. Although I've left, my clones are still here."

Over the years, apart from the clone of the Valley Master of Fallen Souls, Yun Jie has not taken back any of the others, including Wen Yi, Dao Qi, and others.

The Valley Master of Fallen Souls did withdraw his power, after all, his power was not weak, unlike Wen Yi and Dao Qi, who had little impact on Yun Jie.

Yun Jie also released control over the Underworld Lord. In the current world, the human race is the only dominant force. With the Human Emperor and others present, the other races cannot overthrow the heavens. Therefore, Yun Jie returned the Underworld Lord's freedom.

It would have been better if the topic of clones hadn't been mentioned. The mere mention of clones filled Su Yu with immense frustration. It turned out that the ones who had helped him the most back then were Yun Jie's clones. He had truly won without lifting a finger...

"Okay, I'm leaving."

The matter had dragged on long enough, so Yun Jie left this time without any hesitation and left the Great Xuan Mansion very decisively.

However, before leaving the myriad realms, Yun Jie still needs to see the Human Emperor one last time.

Find the Emperor and explain your purpose.

The Emperor asked, with a mixture of surprise and not-so-surprise, "You're leaving?"

Yun Jie nodded, "Yes."

"So you're looking for me now..."

"There's something I need to tell you: Blackscale is not dead."

"What!?" the Emperor exclaimed in shock.

"Don't be surprised yet, let me finish," Yun Jie continued, "I did kill it back then, but it was the embodiment of calamity, an immortal being."

"There is only one way to completely kill it: only someone who cultivates the same path of tribulation can kill it. However, I do not possess this path, so many years later, it will be resurrected and will once again unleash the destruction of the world."

The Human Emperor asked in a daze, "Is it only by cultivating the Path of Tribulation that we can completely kill it?"

"Yes, but the Path of Tribulation is not something anyone can cultivate. Currently, there is only one person who can master this path, and that is Su Yu."

"Of course, don't even think about letting Su Yu kill it. Whoever kills it will be the next Black Scale, and the myriad realms will be the prison that confines him!"

"Therefore, the only thing you can do is to work together to kill it when it resurrects, so as not to give it the chance to destroy the world. Kill it every time it resurrects. In this way, there will be no destruction of the world."

The Human Emperor said blankly, "Even if we join forces, we won't be a match for the resurrected Black Scale, right? I remember it had 45 Paths."

Yun Jie shook his head, "No, even if it revives, it can't have 45 paths, at most 44."

With only two Black Scales left controlling the River of Growth, having 44 strands of power remaining is already quite good; 45 strands is clearly impossible.

"Even with 44 rounds, we would have a hard time matching them."

Yun Jie looked at him speechlessly and said, "It's not like it can be resurrected anytime soon. It might not be resurrected for tens of thousands of years, or even hundreds of thousands of years. Haven't you made any progress all these years?"

"Alright, that's all for now. Goodbye."

As soon as he finished speaking, Yun Jie disappeared from the spot.

PS:

The Myriad Races arc has come to an end, somewhat abruptly. There was supposed to be a slice-of-life chapter, but never mind.

The next chapter will be about the Star Gate.

Chapter 597 Silver Moon [Requesting monthly votes! Requesting full subscription!]

······

Darkness, deathly silence, and coldness are the eternal themes of chaos.

In the boundless chaos, Yun Jie walked alone, aimlessly. He didn't know where he should go, so he could only identify one direction and keep moving forward.

Half a month has passed since he left the myriad realms. In these two months, he doesn't know how far he has flown. His connection with his two avatars, Wen Yi and Dao Qi, has become increasingly weak, sometimes present and sometimes absent.

Fortunately, although the connection was weak, it hadn't been severed yet. Otherwise, even if he wanted to turn back, he might not have been able to find the Myriad Realms, as the distance was too great and there was nothing in the chaos to discern directions.

The chaos was so vast that you couldn't even imagine it until you came out of it. Yun Jie thought his imagination was already exaggerated enough, but he didn't expect it to be even more exaggerated than he had imagined.

Fortunately, although Yun Jie was bored, he wasn't lonely. Even though he didn't bring anyone with him, there were still many creatures in the Xuanhuang World. Although they lacked intelligence, they could at least relieve his boredom.

That day, the system, which Yun Jie had ignored for a long time, suddenly spoke, almost startling Yun Jie.

Imagine you're walking quietly alone in a deserted place when suddenly a voice appears before you. How would you react?

"Ding! It has been detected that the host is about to leave the Chaos where the Myriad Races World is located. The host has two choices: First, travel to the global high-martial world; second, travel to the Star Gate World. Please choose carefully."

After the system finished speaking, a string of big question marks appeared above Yun Jie's head.

What is that?

Another time travel?

"System, can't I not travel through time?" Yun Jie asked tentatively, knowing that the system wouldn't answer.

"No."

Yun Jie: ? ? ?

What the hell!

The system answered!? It actually answered!?

Yun Jie hurriedly asked, "Why not? I'm doing just fine here. I've finally managed to cultivate to this level. Why do I have to travel through time again? Can I even come back? And if I travel through time again, do I have to start cultivating all over again?"

Yun Jie rattled off a series of questions.

This time, the system was no longer aloof and began to answer questions one by one.

"First, there is no reason why, or rather, you don't need to know right now."

"Secondly, whether you can come back depends not on me, but on you. If the conditions for your return are met, you can naturally come back. As for what those conditions are, don't ask, you won't know anyway."

"Third, this time you will not need to start cultivating from scratch. You can choose to preserve all your strength, or you can choose to start cultivating from scratch."

"No, no, no, that's impossible!"

As soon as the system finished speaking, Yun Jie refused outright, saying that starting cultivation from scratch was absolutely impossible.

Then, Yun Jie fell into deep thought. He couldn't believe that he had already reached level 50 and had completely explored the map of all races, yet he still had to travel through time again. Moreover, how did this system suddenly become so powerful? Didn't it always give him junk before?

I thought the system was broken, but I didn't expect it to be waiting for me here...

Moreover, it seems I can't resist. Damn it, I'll kill you sooner or later!

Yun Jie made up his mind and then carefully considered the options given by the system.

Global advanced weaponry and stargates?

I know that Global Martial Arts is also a book by the author Eagle, but who is the author of Star Gate?

Wait a minute, Yun Jie suddenly remembered that he had been in the world for quite a while. Could it be that the author, Lao Ying, has released a new book?

I must say, Yun Jie's guess was spot on!

So he asked, "Is the author of the Star Gate World and the author of the Myriad Races World the same person?"

The system's mechanical voice sounded again, "Yes."

Yun Jie was stunned for a moment, "It really is..."

"Do you have information on stargates? Let me see them."

"Star Gate is currently being serialized. The latest chapter is chapter 399. Beep, content is being transmitted. Please receive it, host."

"Receive," Yun Jie silently said to himself.

Swish!

The next moment, a large amount of information entered Yun Jie's brain, exactly four million words.

System: "Transmission complete! Please note that no more data will be provided after the transmigration. All unknowns must be explored by the host on their own."

Yun Jie slowly opened his eyes, his black pupils revealing endless depths, and lines of text flashed through his mind.

Yun Jie said softly, "This... is enough..."

"Star Gate, Silver Moon World, Li Hao, Fang Ping, Li Changsheng, Global Martial Arts, Red Moon World... Interesting, hahaha, really interesting!!"

After processing the information in his mind, Yun Jie burst into laughter amidst the chaos.

"So you're the Lord of Time, Li Hao!"

"Wow, this is like a nested doll! The world's top martial arts are nested within Stargate, and Stargate is nested within all races. So, all races are actually the weakest?"

Yun Jie smiled. "Things seem to be getting interesting. Are all races the weakest? No! All races are the strongest!"

"System, I have two more questions."

"Is this time travel a reversal of time to return to the past, or a journey through a parallel universe?"

If it's about reversing time and going back to the past, then Yun Jie would have to reassess the system's capabilities. Time and space are eternal and unique; what kind of existence could reverse time and space?

Besides, if things really did reverse and he was sent back to the past, would all the races still exist? Would the people he knew still exist?

If these problems aren't solved, even if he travels back in time, what can he do, and what would he dare to do?
