Chapter 1186: Chapter 1186 Gate of Destiny

The scene before Lin Shen’s eyes became bizarre and eerie, as if his field of vision was infinitely drawn inwards.

The mysterious sights of the microcosm unfolded one by one before Lin Shen’s eyes.

Lin Shen felt as if he was on a high-speed train, constantly moving forward at great speed, with the scenery in his eyes changing rapidly.

Of course, Lin Shen wasn’t actually moving; it was just his vision delving deeper into the microcosm.

Lin Shen saw those strange and fantastic landscapes, impossible to describe with words, until the scene before him suddenly exploded like a Light Explosion.

Lin Shen’s pupils and eyes were dyed a blazing white by that Light Explosion.

When Lin Shen’s vision returned, he found what he saw was completely different from before.

The Wall Mountain was gone, the little figure patterns were gone, the cartoons playing on the communicator screen were gone.

All that was before him was a gate, a black iron door.

The door stood in the void, its edges seemingly merged with the void, like a portal to a new world beyond.

On that door, black iron chains wrapped around it, binding the door as if in a tight bundle.

At the intersections of the chains, an ancient iron lock held two crossing chains tightly together.

One… Two… Three… Lin Shen counted a total of ten iron locks, firmly securing the chains around the door.

“Where is this place? Is this door within the microcosm?” Lin Shen pondered, but soon felt something was amiss.

When he tried to adjust his field of vision, no matter how he attempted to zoom in or out, the door he saw remained unchanged.

If he was seeing the microcosm, any change in his field of vision should have altered the appearance of the door.

Even if the field of vision had reached its limit, seeing the minutest realm, if it couldn’t zoom in any further, at least it should be able to zoom out.

Now it couldn’t zoom in or out, as if it had lost its function.

“Body… No body… Could this be… introspection…” While pondering, Lin Shen found his sight still intact but without a body, realizing what was happening.

He actually possessed the ability of introspection, a capability only heard of in legends.

The term introspection is common in cultivation, especially in the Ghost God Faction practices, knowing the Ghost God is a form of introspection.

But that kind of introspection is just a meditative ability, not real introspection in the true sense.

What meditation introspection can see is one’s own thoughts and imagination.

However, Lin Shen’s situation differed from imagined insights, for he truly saw the existence of the door, not imagined, but physical introspection.

“Is this really introspection? If it is, then what exactly am I seeing? Why is there a door in my body?” Lin Shen pondered while observing the door.

The door was simple and plain, without any carvings or decorations, just a plain black iron door, with its chains having no patterns, looking like thick black iron chains.

The only peculiar part was the iron locks that chained the iron door. The locks were of the same black iron texture, with lock bodies cloud-shaped, each lock slightly different, like clouds have various shapes.

The ten locks were all different in shape, but all engraved with the same two characters.

“Destiny!” Lin Shen scrutinized and recognized the characters, finding them easy to discern, engraved very clearly.

Aside from that, no other discoveries were made. Lin Shen wanted to reach out and touch the door and locks but lacked a body, leaving him unable to do anything but think.

“Destiny is causality, destiny is predetermined, the cycle of cause and effect, everyone within it, hard to escape fate; does this door represent breaking the worldly causality, a method to defy heaven and change fate?” Lin Shen speculated to himself.

“If this door truly is the embodiment of destiny, does it mean that if I collect the Heaven Defying Bone, I could break through the destiny gate… Right… Could the Heaven Defying Bone mean literally… to rebel against fate… to give me the strength of a skeleton… a chance to break this Gate of Destiny…” Lin Shen’s thoughts wandered fantastically.

Suddenly, Lin Shen’s sight seemed pulled back rapidly by an unseen force, everything before his eyes flashed past like time itself, leaving nothing visible.

The next second, Lin Shen’s eyes returned to normal vision, once again facing the watch screen playing cartoons.

As Lin Shen’s sight normalized, the jam mask on his face disintegrated like ash, scattering with the wind, gone without a trace.

“What was that just now?” Lin Shen couldn’t determine what he had just seen, whether it was introspection, and if so, where the locked black iron door inside his body was, and why it was there.

“Does everyone have such a Gate of Destiny within their bodies? Or is it only in mine?” Lin Shen frowned in contemplation.

If everyone has one, then does it mean everyone has the potential to open the Gate of Destiny and break free from causality?

If only he has it, Lin Shen starts doubting if his poor memory is related to that Gate of Destiny, whether it’s sealing his brain, causing his memory issues.

Considering various possibilities, Lin Shen attempted to re-enter introspection but found it impossible.

His vision could change freely, seeing the tiniest realm, yet no matter how microscopic, he saw no more Light Explosions, nor the door.

Xiaoye and Xiaona watched the dazed Lin Shen, their faces showing peculiar expressions, especially Xiaoye, whose eyes were full of surprise.

The mask formed from the Realm King Fruit pulp had exhausted its energy, capable of evolving the brain to the highest power; its energy was unimaginably immense, yet it depleted so quickly.

The crucial point is that after the Realm King Fruit pulp’s energy depleted, Lin Shen himself seemed unchanged, entirely lacking the expected fluctuations.

Though the Realm King Fruit hadn’t fully matured, its energy was already formidable beyond ordinary comprehension, typically enabling one to achieve at least the level of spiritual power materialization upon absorption, seeing the existence of a Spiritual Halo.

However, Lin Shen exhibited no change at all, let alone a Spiritual Halo; his eyes remained confounded, devoid of any wisdom.
