Chapter 478 I see through fate's arrangement, but I will conquer nature!
The sealing runes of the God's Arena flickered dimly, and the occasional struggles and roars were weakened by layers of energy barriers.
In the distance, several shattered fragments of the meteorite, bearing charred marks, drifted on the ground.
The Uchiha Mitsunaga floated among the shattered meteorites, golden chakra swirling around him like a veil.
As his steady breathing rose and fell slightly, he raised his fingers slightly, his slender knuckles tracing the scattered energy turbulence.
Those turbulent currents, powerful enough to tear apart the bodies of ordinary ninjas, became docile the moment they touched him.
He lowered his eyes and looked down at the arena enveloped by a barrier, his brows furrowing almost imperceptibly.
The sounds of fighting and cheering echoed through layers of space, indistinct as if from another world.
The trivial matters of the Otsutsuki clan were over, and these disturbances... could no longer stir his emotions.
At this moment, the only name swirling in his mind was... Otsutsuki Shibai.
Only the instigator who brought this universe to the brink of collapse could stir his thoughts.
The faint light remaining from the Eye of God's Pupil Technique flowed in his eyes, and golden runes slowly rotated along his pupils.
Like intricate gears turning, the past of Ōtsutsuki Shibayo unfolded slowly in his mind like an ancient scroll.
This name was once the glory of this universe, the protagonist chosen by destiny itself.
Born with the verdant imprint of the divine tree, a light touch of the fingertip can draw upon the pure energy of the divine tree.
They could have followed the trajectory of the universe's will, safeguarding the peace of a galaxy and becoming a legend passed down through generations.
A pang of regret swept through Uchiha Sanfeng's heart at such talent and destiny.
Ultimately, he was destroyed by the temptation of power.
But the allure of power is ultimately corrosive, like a vine in the darkness.
It silently entangles the original aspiration, eventually completely devouring it.
Uchiha Mitsuru could clearly see that Otsutsuki Shibai was breaking through his power bottleneck time and time again.
The clarity in his eyes was gradually replaced by greed, and he went from a righteous and powerful protector of the planet to a demon who reaped lives.
He felt as if he were there, witnessing the arrival of Otsutsuki Shibaju on a vibrant blue planet.
The divine tree's thick roots broke through the soil, pierced through the clouds, and penetrated into the earth's core.
Emerald energy... mercilessly sweeps through the planet's interior, reaping all life, vegetation, and the essence of the land.
Even the primal force pulsating at the core of the planet was not spared.
In the blink of an eye, that once vibrant and teeming planet was transformed into a desolate and lifeless wasteland.
The Earth's surface cracked, the atmosphere dissipated, and it drifted slowly in space.
He was eventually swallowed by the cold nebula, a scene that had repeated countless times in his past.
Each time, it is accompanied by the loss of hundreds of millions of lives.
The extinction of countless life-bearing planets has caused massive cracks in the universe's energy cycle.
The primordial power was rapidly and continuously drained away, and even the stars in distant galaxies dimmed their light.
The trajectory of the machine also began to show slight deviations, as if it might deviate from its course at any moment.
But when the energy within Otsutsuki Shibakai's body becomes so concentrated that it can tear apart dimensional barriers.
There was no trace of guilt towards the universe in his eyes; he had already prepared his own way out.
He tore a twisted rift in the void, attempting to escape with the stolen trillions of cosmic origins.
They fled to other dimensions to avoid disaster, leaving the ruin and destruction of this universe behind.
Uchiha Mitsumine's chakra stirred slightly at his fingertips, and a cold glint flashed in his eyes.
Such selfishness disqualifies one from possessing that talent.
"Like a thief who has stolen trillions of dollars, he burns down the warehouse and then tries to escape."
Uchiha Mitsunori murmured softly, his tone carrying a hint of indifferent mockery.
As my fingertips traced the void, I touched a faint ripple of the cosmic will.
Although the will of this universe has no physical form, it possesses the most primal instinct to protect... and will ultimately not tolerate such plunder.
At the moment when Otsutsuki Shibakai's half-body had already stepped into the dimensional rift and the energy fluctuations were about to dissipate.
The primordial power of the universe converged from all directions, coalescing into an invisible golden chain.
It tightly wrapped around his ankles, then with a sudden burst of strength pulled him back from the crack... and plunged him violently into the ceaseless, bizarre river of time.
He was trapped between the past and the future, unable to move.
He could only helplessly allow the raging power of time to relentlessly erode his body.
The damage has already occurred... A large amount of the universe's origin has been seized by Otsutsuki Shibakai... The loss is irreversible.
The energy gap in the universe is widening, and subtle signs of collapse are beginning to appear in the void, threatening to collapse completely at any moment.
The will of the universe urgently needs a controllable and powerful force to reverse the decline and fill the fundamental gap.
They even went so far as to use their own remaining essence as a catalyst to nurture new guardians.
And he, Uchiha Sanfeng, was drawn by this will... and arranged by the origin of the universe.
Born quietly, it has carried the implicit mission of "corrector" since its inception.
He knew in his heart that this was his deepest bond with this universe, but it was by no means his shackle.
Uchiha Mitsunori raised his eyes and gazed at the boundless starry river, where billions of stars shimmered.
It seemed to transform into countless tiny specks of light, making even the orbits and energy flows of distant galaxies clearly discernible.
As a transmigrator who came from across dimensions, deep within his soul...
Carved with a mark that does not belong to this universe, it has never limited or defined its future as "an executor of the universe's will".
His vision and potential have already surpassed the established rules of this universe.
The boundaries of his thinking destined him to break free from the shackles of fate and refuse to become a pawn to be manipulated by others.
They are even less willing to let their so-called "mission" define their life and death.
It wasn't that he was unwilling to deal with Otsutsuki Shibakai, nor that he wanted to let the universe perish.
After all, this universe holds his cherished family and partners.
However, he would never obey... the arrangements of the universe's will.
To be the pawn that sacrifices itself and perishes together with Ōtsutsuki Shibaki.
What he wanted was to end the catastrophe and protect his loved ones... to truly control his own destiny.
A gentle figure quietly approached, carrying a faint fragrance of the divine tree. Kaguya Otsutsuki stopped beside the three peaks of the Uchiha clan.
Her skirt swayed gently with the cosmic currents, and her gaze fell on his furrowed brows.
With a hint of concern and worry, she saw him gazing at the Milky Way in a daze, his brows furrowed in deep thought.
She assumed he was troubled by something, and her voice was as soft as a feather.
She asked softly, "Sanfeng, is something else bothering you?"
"The matter at the arena has been resolved, and the children are all safe and sound."
Uchiha Mitsunori snapped out of his daze and turned to look at Otsutsuki Kaguya beside him.
The coldness and seriousness in his eyes vanished instantly, replaced by a gentle warmth.
A slight smile played on his lips as he gently brushed away the fine stardust clinging to her hair.
His movements were gentle and natural as he slowly began to speak.
"I'm thinking about how to get rid of Otsutsuki Shibakai, and I've already come up with a plan."
"But this matter is fraught with danger, and I need to leave for a while."
"Please take good care of the family and the children."
He spoke calmly, deliberately downplaying the danger of the situation so as not to worry her.
Kaguya Otsutsuki felt a sudden tightness in her chest, and her fingertips instinctively gripped his sleeve.
A hint of worry flashed in his eyes, but he didn't ask any further questions.
She understood Uchiha Mitsunori's personality; once he made a decision, he wouldn't easily change it.
She nodded gently, her tone firm: "Go ahead and don't worry, I'll take care of things at home."
"I will protect the children and everyone else, and wait for you to come back."
As she spoke, her chakra surged slightly, filled with determination to protect.
The two spoke softly, yet their voices carried clearly to the edge of the Arena of Gods not far away.
Upon hearing this, Uchiha Mikoto, Uzumaki Megumi, Hyuga Hinata, and the others stopped what they were doing and quickly walked over in the direction of the sound.
Mikoto Uchiha was still wearing her Gold Cloth, her eyes filled with worry.
"Sanfeng, where are we going? Is it very dangerous?"
Huiyi Uzumaki was surrounded by light blue chakra, and her tone was full of concern.
"Do you need us to come with you? It'll be good to have more people to look after you."
Hinata Hyuga activated her Tenseigan and carefully surveyed her surroundings to prevent any accidents from happening.
At the same time, she said softly, "We will help Kaguya-nee take care of the house. Please take good care of yourself."
Looking at the people surrounding him, Uchiha Sanfeng felt a surge of warmth in his heart.
A gentle smile appeared on his face, and he raised his hand and gently shook his head.
"Thank you for your concern, but I have to handle this on my own."
"Having too many people around can be distracting. Your help in protecting my home is the greatest support you can give me."
He didn't go into the details of the plan, partly because he didn't want to worry everyone.
Secondly, the process of creating the sun was extremely dangerous, and he did not want to implicate anyone.
Seeing his resolute attitude, the others stopped pressuring him.
They all urged him to be careful, their eyes filled with concern.
After everyone left, the gentle expression on Uchiha Mitsunori's face gradually faded.
His expression turned serious again, and he lightly tapped the air with his fingertips.
A golden energy phantom appeared out of thin air and was clearly divided into two halves.
On one side were countless, almost continuous points of light, representing the unfathomable energy level of Otsutsuki Shibakai.
On the other side, there were only a few clusters of faint light, scattered here and there, which was his current energy reserve.
He once had a brief, distant confrontation with Ōtsutsuki Shibai over the course of time.
That immense energy, originating from a planet teeming with life, once swept in like a mountain pressing down.
He had experienced... that deep-seated sense of oppression... which still lingers in his memory... and cannot be shaken off.
He exhaled deeply. The Divine Art of Ten Directions could reveal the future, but those were not the endings he desired.
He wanted to create his own new future timeline, to break free from the predetermined future that this universe had arranged for him...
