Chapter 295 - 295: Creatures Outside the Door – Void Fisherman!
"What?!"
Immediately, Fen Baoyan felt an overwhelming sense of danger. She couldn't help but scream, panic surging through her.
A formless force from the void wrapped around her, sealing her powers. No matter how much she struggled, it was as if she would be dragged away in the next moment, vanishing from this chaotic void.
The other magical treasures widened their eyes in shock. None of them had expected such an abrupt and terrifying incident.
"Courting death!"
Gu Chuan's eyes turned cold. He reached out with a mighty hand, grasping at the thin thread that ensnared Fen Baoyan, intending to trace it back to its source and confront the being behind it.
But as his fingers closed around it, he immediately realized that this was no ordinary thread. It was incredibly resilient, tougher than the threads of the Great Dao itself—no, it surpassed even that, as if it didn't belong to this world at all.
A tremendous force pulsed through the thread, attempting to rip Fen Baoyan away, pulling her beyond the chaotic void, toward something even further beyond.
Beyond Chaos?
Gu Chuan's pupils shrank. Could this thread have originated from something outside of Chaos?
His soul's fluctuations spread along the thin line, following its trajectory. In an instant, he perceived its reach—it extended infinitely, penetrating countless worlds, transcending infinite chaos, weaving through time and space itself.
It pierced through the Chaos World, reaching beyond, into a realm of numb emptiness.
Then, a voice echoed from the depths of the void, foreign and unfathomable.
"Hmm? I actually caught a big fish. It seems my luck is quite good today."
The voice did not belong to any known language of the Chaos World. It was ancient, filled with the weight of inevitability—akin to the language of the Doomsday itself.
There was no longer any doubt. This thin thread had come from something outside of Chaos, and the being that wielded it was an existence beyond comprehension, distinct from the terrifying entities lurking outside the Gate of Eternal Life.
"Are there more than one of these dreadful creatures beyond Chaos?"
Gu Chuan clenched his fists. He had long suspected that the horrors outside Chaos were not confined to a single world beyond the Door. The unknown was vast, possibly boundless.
But he had not expected there to be an existence capable of extending its influence into the Chaos World without passing through the Gate of Eternal Life.
If such beings had possessed this ability from the beginning, he likely would have perished long ago.
"What manner of existence are you? What is your purpose?"
Gu Chuan tightened his grip on the thin thread, exerting all his strength to prevent Fen Baoyan from being taken away. His voice was steady, but his mind was racing.
In response, the voice from beyond the void chuckled.
"I am a Void Fisherman, one who casts his line into the universe, fishing across endless time and space."
The words carried a profound detachment, as if spoken by an entity that had long surpassed mortal comprehension.
"As one who dwells inside the Door, you are strong—strong enough that, should you advance further, you may one day glimpse the scenery beyond the Door. But do not interfere with my fishing."
Gu Chuan's eyes flickered.
Sitting in the void, casting a line to fish for treasures scattered across infinite universes—what kind of supreme power was this?
The concept alone was incomprehensible, yet it was real.
In some ways, this Void Fisherman might be more terrifying than the creatures Gu Chuan had encountered before.
"You, a creature beyond the Door... what exactly are you? What is your true purpose?"
His gaze never left the thin thread. He wished to use it as a medium to spy upon the unfathomable being outside.
But the Void Fisherman remained indifferent.
"There is no need for you to know. Your strength is far from sufficient. I have already spoken more than enough. When you possess the power to walk beyond the Door, then we shall talk again."
With that, the thin thread trembled. An unimaginable force surged through it, and in an instant, it sought to claim Fen Baoyan entirely.
If Gu Chuan failed to act, she would be torn from the Chaos World and dragged beyond the Door, lost forever.
"I can't hold it?!"
Gu Chuan's expression darkened. He could feel it—his raw strength alone was insufficient.
This thread was not merely an object imbued with infinite power; it resonated with the very laws of the void itself.
Wherever it passed, laws rippled and distorted, unable to impede its movement.
Brute force would not be enough. Another method was needed.
"This thread must be severed."
In the blink of an eye, Gu Chuan unleashed his supernatural technique—True Lies.
A terrifying ripple of energy spread outward, drawing upon the boundless essence of the Chaos Source. The immense power engulfed the mysterious thin thread.
Then—

Snap!
In an instant, the thread broke.
Fen Baoyan, who had been suspended midair, immediately fell, freed from the entity's grasp.
"What?! My fishing line broke?"
The Void Fisherman was visibly surprised.
It had never expected such a thing to happen. That a being from inside the Door could sever its line—an impossibility, or so it had believed.
"Interesting. Your strength is not ordinary. You were able to break my fishing line... That means there is a high probability that you will one day step beyond the Gate of Eternal Life."
For the first time, the Fisherman seemed genuinely intrigued by Gu Chuan.
Countless beings across the infinite universes could reach Gu Chuan's level—characters who stood at the very limit of their cosmos, the chosen ones of their respective eras.
Yet none of them had ever severed its fishing line.
This feat alone proved that Gu Chuan's understanding of supernatural powers and spells had already surpassed his own realm.
Such an existence had surpassed even the so-called "Children of Destiny"—he had the potential to leave the universe entirely.
Gu Chuan himself was startled.
Using his technique had cost him a tenth of his total energy.
It was a terrifying realization.
Within the Chaos World, there were few things capable of consuming even a fraction of his power.
Yet breaking this fishing line had required so much—proof of its incomprehensible strength.
The nature of this fishing line may have transcended the level of Chaos Supreme Treasures, reaching an entirely different dimension of existence.
Then—
The Void Fisherman paused.
It had noticed something.
"Wait... Has this universe already been marked by the Nibblers?"
There was genuine surprise in its voice.
For the first time, the Void Fisherman seemed to recognize a greater threat.
Beyond the Door, another entity lurked—one even it regarded with caution.
