Creating gods in the Hunter x Hunter world

“It hasn’t been too long, shall we continue?” Fu Long glanced at Jin.

“Continue. The things in this temple are yours. I don’t have any need for them. However, these things are for entering the lower forest of the World Tree, so you must call me when you go into the lower forest.”

Fu Long made an OK sign, indicating that there was absolutely no problem with it.

Continuing onward, the rear hall of the temple became even darker.

At the very center of the temple, there was a huge phantom, which looked like a door, but the door was too illusory and didn't feel real at all.

"The Gate to Truth".

What a name! This damn contrast! Such an unreal door, and you call it the Door of Reality?

Fu Long glanced at Jin, who was speaking.

Jin laughed and said, "Don't ask me how I know. This Gate of Truth is quite troublesome. Once you enter, the most authentic things in your heart will appear."

If a person becomes trapped in this reality, they will eventually lose control of time and may ultimately die within the gates of reality.

Fu Long took a deep breath. It seemed that everything inside the Gate of Truth was much more troublesome than he had imagined.

"As long as you stay true to yourself, that should be enough, right?" the drunkard said.

"Stay true to yourself? You make it sound so easy, but can you truly hold onto your own true self?" Jin said. "If everything here feels real to you, if you feel it's part of your life, what will you do?"

Fu Long nodded in agreement. That made sense. This was indeed troublesome, since his reliance on his body and soul was mismatched.

If this Gate of Truth allows one to read their innermost thoughts, perhaps it can even conjure up a vision of the world beyond...

Thinking about this, Fu Long raised his eyebrows, pondering whether or not to take the risk.

“I can’t go in. Once I go in, I don’t have the confidence to come out. That’s the most powerful thing about the Gate of Truth.” Jin sighed.

Even he didn't dare say he could get in, which shows how terrifying it is inside.

The drunkard also gasped.

After a struggle within himself, Fu Long finally made up his mind.

No matter what, I should give it my all; I'll handle the door to reality that's right in front of me myself.

Chapter 472 Escaping the Door of Truth

"I'll do it," Fu Long stepped forward, a cold smile playing on his lips.

It's impossible for this virtual world to simulate one's true secrets.

So I'm not afraid at all.

“But…” Billian reached out and grabbed Fu Long.

Fu Long shook his head, interrupting her: "Don't worry, what I'm least afraid of is this kind of illusion."

Jin narrowed his eyes and looked at Fu Long. This was the first time he had seen someone who was not afraid of illusions. It seemed that Fu Long's background was probably extraordinary.

There is no such thing as origin on the original continent. Even a strong person like Netero became the strongest through his own training.

So, Fu Long must have come from that place from the very beginning.

Billian then let go, still looking at Fu Long with some concern.

Fu Long simply smiled and said, "This is not difficult to handle."

As he walked towards the Gate of Truth, Fu Long's figure quickly disappeared within it.

"Don't worry, since he has that confidence, there's absolutely no problem."

Fu Long was stunned, because he found himself in complete darkness.

Where am I? Then, an unstoppable wave of drowsiness washed over me.

Fu Long fell asleep, and when he woke up again, he realized that he seemed to be inside someone's stomach.

I took a moment to check, and wow, my thoughts had disappeared.

No, how could someone have such a thought? Fu Long was also very puzzled.

By the way, this is the Gate of Truth.

Fu Long immediately understood what the so-called Gate of Truth was all about.

To put it simply, entering the Gate of Truth is like starting your life all over again.

This time, starting over shouldn't begin from a certain age, but rather from the time the brain has formed and memories have formed.

At this time, the baby should still be in the mother's womb.

The drowsiness I felt earlier was simply a kind of seal, sealing away my memories.

Unfortunately, the sealed memories within the Gate of Truth belong to Fu Long, who is long dead, and Fu Long's own memories are completely unrelated to this world.

Therefore, even the Gate of Truth cannot completely seal away Fu Long's memories.

The problem is, what should I do now? I don't have any mental power, so it's not realistic to get out. Do I have to go through some things?

Fu Long sensed that the flow of time here was even more different.

I'll probably live my whole life, but only a few days will have passed outside.

Of course, this is just a feeling; the reality is completely different.

And so, even though Fu Long retained his memories, all he could do was wait.

Having given birth, Fu Long finally saw the world, which made him somewhat happy.

Once he's out of the womb, everything will be much easier. Fu Long has a complete set of methods to open the seminal vesicles and regain his consciousness, but they're useless inside the womb.

However, he saw Fu Long's deceased father again, as well as a woman with a gentle appearance.

These are Fu Long's deceased parents. No one knows what happened afterward, but it didn't matter to Fu Long anyway.

He needs to quickly develop mental power.

And so, the days went by. For a child to gain psychic powers was still somewhat of a struggle.

Fu Long didn't master telekinesis until he was three years old. The moment his telekinesis was formed, Fu Long finally realized the power that had disappeared behind the Gate of Truth.

Fortunately, all his abilities remained the same as before, and had not changed due to the illusion here. Fu Long could even sense the presence of the Mother Symbol.

"Hey, this is about time to end things. There's nothing wrong with this illusion anyway."

Huh? When Fu Long spoke, everyone inside the Gate of Truth was probably stunned.

People have entered the Gate of Truth before, but without exception, they have all been trapped and died inside.

Because in the illusion, they forget their former selves and start over from scratch, from birth to growth, with someone to teach and someone to raise them.

They seemed to have lived their entire lives, and then died of old age, or in battle, or in various other ways. When a person feels that they are truly going to die, after the psychological feeling of certain death arises, the physical body will also die.

I've never made a mistake before, so what's going on today? Could it be that there's a flaw in the illusion?

That's impossible. Even if there are flaws, someone who has sealed their memories and been reborn shouldn't have any problems, right?

He probably can't tell.

It was Fu Long's parents who spoke up at this moment: "Long'er, what are you saying?"

Fu Long glanced at them, then smiled and said, "No matter what, I have to thank you. At least you raised me. Although in the real world it may only be a little bit of time, if I really felt that I was starving to death, I might really die. So, I am very grateful for your care over the past few years."

This time, the being inside the Gate of Truth is suffering. It seems that Fu Long has truly awakened.

What's going on? This has never happened before.

At this moment, Fu Long's mental power surged, and a white dragon horse appeared.

"You probably can't break free of this illusion on your own, unless someone can escape it using their own strength, right?"

"How did you know?"

"I'm just guessing. After all, if you could break free from this illusion, all this mess would probably be gone by now. So I'm guessing that you can't break free from this illusion either, but once I escape, you should disappear too."

"No, you can't escape, you can't."

However, Fu Long ignored him completely and instead mounted the white dragon horse.

"Whether it's an illusion or reality, it doesn't matter anymore. What matters is that I have to get out of here. I think my woman is getting impatient."

"No, you don't..."

With a whoosh, the white dragon horse disappeared.

Meanwhile, outside the Gate of Truth, Billy was just beginning to feel a bit anxious.

Fu Long has been inside for about twenty minutes and hasn't come out yet. Could something be wrong?

Foxy sat beside her, comforting her; women tend to be more attentive in situations like this.

"Do you think he can succeed?" the drunkard asked.

"No problem." Jin smiled slightly, but in her heart she was thinking that Fu Long might have come here for the things on the World Tree.

There, lies what I must find, and I hope Fu Long won't try to take it from me.

It's troublesome; it would be very troublesome to be enemies with Fu Long.

This is Jin's feeling, after all, Fu Long's strength is not weak.

Moreover, he has an unexpected trump card up his sleeve.

Just as they were thinking this, a figure riding a white horse appeared before their eyes.

Fu Long returned and carefully examined his body. He breathed a sigh of relief; thankfully, his body was that of an adult, not a three-year-old child.

Having escaped perfectly, Fu Long looked towards the Gate of Truth. "It's time to turn you back into your original form."

Chapter 473 A Treasure Was Forged

The Gate of Truth is shaking. What a joke! When I set it up, I never intended for anyone to leave.

But now someone has actually escaped, how can this be allowed, yet there's nothing it can do about it.

"This horse is really amazing..." Jin looked at the white dragon horse with some envy. It was obvious that the horse was able to escape entirely because of its ability. Jin felt that he needed one too.

Of course, it won't be so easy for Jin to obtain the White Dragon Horse's abilities.
