Realizing This Is A Wuxia World After Cultivating For 300 Years - Chapter 782: Occupying the Future

782 Occupying the Future

“I didn’t expect this Immortal technique to be like this.” Cui Heng couldn’t help but chuckle.

However, this situation was indeed beyond his expectations.

After getting used to knowing the subsequent cultivation path as long as he flipped through this Immortal technique, he was very curious about this sudden situation.

It also caused some doubts to appear in his heart.

Although this Immortal technique did not have a description of the Dao Integration realm, it pointed to the Peak of the Return to Void realm. It was enough for the person who cultivated this technique to reach the level of being omnipotent and omniscient.

Then who created this Immortal technique and what realm had he reached?

Why did the “benefits” given by the System include this Immortal technique?

Was his transmigration and the origin of the System related to this Immortal technique?

To this day, Cui Heng could clearly determine that the core of the system’s benefits was this Immortal technique.

Whether it was the Grotto-Heaven, the Dao Palace, or other aspects, they were just supplementary.

Thinking of this, Cui Heng spread out his divine sense. After a moment of hesitation, he began to analyze the existence of this Grotto-Heaven and the System.

But he found nothing.

The essence of the Grotto-Heaven was a little similar to the Primordial World at the beginning of the world. The Great Dao laws were extremely complete, but it was completely independent in the timeline.

This also meant that he could not see the past of this space, nor could he see the future of this space. It was very mysterious.

The System was even more mysterious. He could not even find out what kind of existence the System was. Whether it existed in him or only established a connection with him through a mysterious method, he did not know.

“Even with my current realm, I can’t understand the mysteries within. I’m afraid I’ll have to completely reach the limits of the Peak Return to Void Realm before I can investigate the System further.”

Cui Heng ended his investigation of the System and shook his head gently. He thought to himself, “There’s no hurry. I should finish the last part of my cultivation first.”

After making his decision, he left the Grotto-Heaven Dao Palace and returned to the present time.

Although the source of the starting point of time had changed, under Cui Heng’s series of subtle controls, the surface situation of the timeline had not changed at all, and no one sensed this change.

He could maintain the previous stability to the greatest extent without causing historical deviation and chaos, avoiding some unnecessary trouble.

After doing all of this, Cui Heng left the place.

However, what he wanted to do this time was not to go back in time, but to explore the future, occupy the timeline of the future, and grasp the many possibilities of the future until he occupied the position of “End”.

Above the River of Time, Cui Heng appeared in an omnipresent state and began to observe the “tributaries” in different directions, which was to observe the different possible futures.

At this moment, the River of Time he saw was completely different from before.

From the past to the present, the River of Time was only a single line. Even if there were any changes, it would only change the river itself and no other splits would appear.

This was the fixed “past”.

However, going to the future from the “present” time was different.

Although the future outcome was already destined, leading to the end of nirvana, the process in between was very different. There were countless different possibilities and directions.

Simply put, the timeline from “past” to “present” was like the trunk of a tree, and the branches that grew in different directions from the “present” represented all the different futures.

These “futures” that grew from the “present” time point could also be used as a new trunk and extend to more “futures” in different directions, so much so that they were endless.

In these different “futures”, there were endless universes, worlds, and living beings. They could be understood as countless parallel space-times that could be produced according to every possible outcome from the present.

Only a parallel space that occupied the endless possibilities of the future and unified everything could truly allow him to exist alone in the timeline.

“If I take over the future, my body will be countless times stronger than now.” Cui Heng looked at the endless tributaries in front of him and could not help but fall into deep thought. “Is this really just a small realm?”

The future was uncertain and there were countless possibilities.

Even if he followed a timeline to the end and occupied all the worlds in the universe in this timeline, he would have only occupied one timeline.

There were countless other parallel futures to this timeline.

Why was it not enough?

He had to occupy all the timelines in order to truly reach the end of the Peak Return to Void Realm.

One could imagine how powerful his body would be after reaching that realm.

Under normal circumstances, such a thing was almost impossible to complete. No one could summarize all the countless futures and explore them.

The changes in the future were too complicated.

Any subtle change in the current node could cause huge waves in the River of Time in the future, triggering unexpected changes.

However, this was not impossible for Cui Heng.

With his past cultivation, he had long achieved omnipresence in the sense of space and spread this characteristic to the past while occupying the past.

Therefore, be it the present or the past, there were countless Cui Hengs at the same time. Every Cui Heng could be used as a “start point” to occupy the endless future.

While occupying the future, the omnipresent characteristics would also appear at the time of the future.

This way, he could continue to have countless “starting points”. And so on, he could continue to extend endlessly until he occupied the future completely.

After clarifying the method, Cui Heng began to take action.

Now, countless Cui Hengs from the present stepped into different futures at the same time, engraving their existence in that space-time and occupying that time point before continuing to spread further.

The countless tributaries divided by the River of Time quickly filled with Cui Heng’s figures. Every possible future would be occupied by Cui Heng.

This also meant that Cui Heng would have absolute control over the future.

What he wanted to happen in the future would happen in the future.

And the future he did not want to see would never appear.

Any universe, world, living beings, civilization, or even everything else had to follow his will if they wanted to develop in the future.

This was omnipotence!

It was precisely because of this that if there were already other existences occupying the future that this process would definitely be extremely difficult.

However, the Beginning and End had already disappeared. Not only was the past timeline clean, but the future timeline was also the same.

This allowed Cui Heng to not feel any obstacles in the process of occupying the future. None of the future tributaries could stop him.

He almost effortlessly occupied all the timelines of the future and controlled all the possibilities of the future.

However, this also made him feel even more clearly that all the futures and possibilities pointed to one thing.

The end of the River of Time.

From Cui Heng’s perspective, all the “future possibilities” began to gather towards one direction.

Whether it was the extremely prosperous “future”, the “future” that had long fallen into the final tribulation, or other futures, they gradually began to die out and walk towards the same outcome.

Cui Heng’s eyes flickered with a faint golden light. His gaze landed at the end of the River of Time. It was a pitch-black void, like the final destination of everything.

“Is this the End?”
