Gatekeeper Of All Realms Chapter 77

“You can eat giant meat too?” Shen Ye asked.

“This is for rebuilding my body, and also for survival,” Big Skeleton said solemnly.

“Alright.”

Shen Ye sighed, then drew out his Nightfall Sword and stepped forward to cut the giant meat.

—He always felt that Big Skeleton seemed to have changed a little.

“Do you think it’s very dangerous here?”

Shen Ye asked while cutting the meat.

“Nonsense, you’ve been targeted by that Skinner and his master, do you think I don’t know the situation?” Big Skeleton said.

“But I can’t find that many undead for you to recover your strength anymore,” Shen Ye said.

“My strength hasn’t been lost, I just lack a body.”

“Is there a difference?” Shen Ye shrugged.

“A huge difference,” Big Skeleton said.

“Alright, if you can join the battle, I’d certainly welcome it,” Shen Ye said.

“Before, I was too fixated on my identity, but now I’ve figured it out, what’s good is an identity when your life is already gone?” Big Skeleton lamented.

“So what do you plan to do?” Shen Ye asked.

“Don’t call me unless it’s urgent, I need to make some preparations beforehand, I hope they won’t be needed,” Big Skeleton said.

So mysterious…

Shen Ye muttered, put the giant meat into his ring, and then returned to Xiao Mengyu’s side.

Xiao Mengyu knew his affinity leaned towards necromancy, so she didn’t ask much at this time, just whispered:

“Be careful, the disturbances in the fog seem to be getting more frequent.”

“Let’s hide back in the cave,” Shen Ye said.

As the two were about to enter the mountain crevice again, a surge of mist suddenly appeared, obscuring the entire mountain.

The mountain was gone!

A series of strange noises came from the mountain crevice.

Some monster was already guarding there.

They were waiting for the two.

A bit terrifying…

Shen Ye looked back at Wood and asked, “Brother, can you really take the exam for me?”

“Yes!” A word appeared on Wood.

“What if you get killed?” Shen Ye asked again.

“I’ll grow elsewhere, but your grades will be terrible,” small words appeared on Wood.

Shen Ye shook his head.

Forget it, I’ll take it myself.

“Look at the playing cards,” Xiao Mengyu said from the side.

Shen Ye pulled out the playing cards, and a line of small text appeared on them:

“The Tide of Lamentation is ravaging.”

“All contestants who have not yet reached the island have been eliminated, a total of 163 people.”

“Now proceeding with the combat assessment.”

“Description: Despite the help of the divine statues, you still need to prove your strength. Fight in the upcoming Tide of Lamentation until you find a truly reliable sanctuary.”

The next moment.

The mist surged in, engulfing the two.

“Be careful, I feel monsters all around.”

Xiao Mengyu shouted.

Shen Ye and she stood back to back, about to speak, when a huge force suddenly struck.

His eyes went black, he couldn’t see anything, he could only gather all his strength, add his attribute points to strength, and push out a palm with both hands.

Boom!

Under the blessing of the pháp nhãn, the Thunder Shock Palm, whose power had been tripled, hit something, erupting with a thunderous sound.

Shen Ye was also sent flying by this force.

Not good!

He glanced out of the corner of his eye and saw that Wood had just been hit by something else and was now rolling somewhere unknown.

Shen Ye rolled in mid-air, his body transforming into fluid-like illusory figures, and landed on a pine tree.

“Xiao Mengyu?”

He shouted loudly.

Thump.

A soft sound, and Wood rolled out of the fog, rolled onto the branch, and stopped beside Shen Ye.

—It had steadfastly returned to guard Shen Ye.

Shen Ye patted Wood to show his gratitude and looked into the mist again.

In the mist, there was only a series of mournful sword cries, sometimes in the east, sometimes in the west, and sometimes rushing into the sky.

Xiao Mengyu was fighting something!

“Hey! Over here!”

Shen Ye shouted loudly.

But the sword cries did not follow, instead, they gradually moved away.

Something was wrong.

Why wasn’t she coming to find him?

It was always better for two people to fight than one.

Shen Ye held Wood, leaped up, and chased after the sound of the sword.

He sprinted through the mist for a while, then suddenly saw a pine tree blocking his way.

Huh?

Shen Ye jumped onto the treetop and looked down.

There was still a muddy footprint where he had just stepped.

—This was the tree he had just left!

So—

Did the mist make people lose their sense of direction?

This was troublesome.

How could he reunite with Xiao Mengyu?

His pocket vibrated slightly.

He quickly pulled out his playing cards and saw a line of small text appear on them:

“Your team has disbanded.”

“Xiao Mengyu has sent you a team request.”

In a flash, Shen Ye reacted.

Xiao Mengyu had obtained the “Team Leader” ability in the novice deck.

Once the team was successfully formed, she could teleport her teammates to her!

And at this moment, without a team, her strength was sealed by 70%.

—She was putting herself in danger, trying to find him first!

Shen Ye immediately said, “Agree!”

Swish—

He disappeared from his spot and appeared beside Xiao Mengyu, angrily shouting, “Block!”

Wood was directly thrown out by him.

Crack—Thump!

Almost instantly, Wood was bitten by a dark shadow and then sent flying.

“Good thing you came, my strength was sealed just now, I definitely couldn’t have blocked that attack.”

Xiao Mengyu said calmly.

Shen Ye looked across and saw a giant python with a single horn on its head.

At this moment, the giant python’s attack failed, and it retreated, coiled on the ground, its head held high, flicking its tongue, staring at the two.

“Didn’t you notice, their attacks are all knock-back type, they absolutely want to separate us.”

Shen Ye said.

Wood rolled back from afar and stopped at his feet.

“Now that you mention it, it really does seem that way,” Xiao Mengyu said.

With the team successfully formed, her strength surged to double again, her whole body exuding chilling sword intent.

“The mist will make us lose our way, so they want to defeat us one by one,” Shen Ye added.

“I did bring a lifeline, we could tie ourselves together, but that would hinder our movements,” Xiao Mengyu said.

“…I do have a trick,” Shen Ye said.

“What?” Xiao Mengyu asked.

Shen Ye walked behind Xiao Mengyu, subtly quivered, and then disappeared.

“Where are you?” Xiao Mengyu was startled.

On the ground, a voice sounded from her shadow:

“I’m in your shadow.”

“…This is a術, you’ve mastered a术 related to shadows?” Xiao Mengyu asked in surprise.

Shen Ye said, “Yes, this way it can’t see me, and—”

Wood rolled over and landed beside Xiao Mengyu.

In this way, with the greatsword for attack and Wood for defense, Shen Ye was hidden in the shadow for mobile support.

Even if Xiao Mengyu was sent flying—

Her shadow couldn’t disappear due to the fog, or be separated from her, trapped alone.

This circumvented the isolating effect of the mist!

Xiao Mengyu’s spirits lifted, and ignoring the single-horned black python, she flashed through the forest.

“Our mission is to find a sanctuary, not to fight monsters.”

She explained as she ran.

Wood sat on the greatsword, and her shadow spoke from behind:

“I know, but it’s following us.”

“Then kill it.”

Xiao Mengyu suddenly turned around and unleashed a full-strength sword strike at the single-horned black python.

The single-horned black python opened its mouth, baring its fangs to block, but was slapped by a hand reaching out from the shadow.

So it didn’t block it.

Swish—

The sword energy pierced through its body, and was followed by the greatsword which cut it again.

The single-horned black python was directly cut into two pieces, writhing madly on the ground, and soon stopped moving.

In the mist.

Various sounds gradually faded away.

The two had successively killed giant centipedes, giants, and the single-horned black python, seemingly intimidating all the monsters in the area.

They all moved away from the two.

Xiao Mengyu took a few breaths and asked, “Where do you think the sanctuary would be?”

“We covered several mountains when we were riding the motorcycle, and we didn’t see anything that could be called a sanctuary,” Shen Ye said.

“Then let’s not climb mountains.”

Xiao Mengyu nodded and continued forward in the mist.

After walking for about ten minutes.

She suddenly stopped.

“What’s wrong?” Shen Ye asked.

“Listen—”

Xiao Mengyu listened intently, softly saying, “There’s a dog barking.”

“I don’t hear anything,” Shen Ye said in surprise.

“Listen again!” Xiao Mengyu said.

“Ah, I hear it, there really is a dog, could dogs be monsters too?” Shen Ye said.

“Not sure… it seems to be approaching us.”

Xiao Mengyu drew her long sword and took a defensive stance.

A burst of gasping and whimpering came from ahead.

Getting closer.

“Who!” Xiao Mengyu shouted.

The mist surged.

A man and a dog jumped out of the fog, fell to the ground, rolled a few times, and then stood up.

“Huh?”

Shen Ye whispered, “I know that boy, his name is Zhang Xiaoyi, he came to Yunshan Port with me.”

“Where’s the dog?” Xiao Mengyu asked.

“I don’t know the dog, but it doesn’t seem to be a dog,” Shen Ye said.

Shen Ye thought for a moment, jumped out of the shadow, yanked Zhang Xiaoyi to his feet and asked:

“Ay, what’s wrong with you?”

“Huh? Shen Ye! That’s great, I finally found you—we’re finally out of danger,” Zhang Xiaoyi gasped.

“Is a monster chasing you?” Shen Ye asked.

Xiao Mengyu held her long sword and stepped forward, shielding the two people and the dog behind her.

“Not a monster, but a powerful young master from an aristocratic family, he wants to kill me and Guo Yunye,” Zhang Xiaoyi said.

Shen Ye chuckled, “You can’t attack each other here.”

Zhang Xiaoyi pulled the dog next to him and said:

“Look!”

Shen Ye looked closely and saw that the dog was covered in wounds.

“Beaten by the young master?”

“Yes.”

“But this is just a dog, is it your pet? Maybe the rules allow attacking pets.”

“This is not my pet!”

“Huh?”

“This is Guo Yunye in his wolf form! It’s not a dog!”

“Huh!”

Not only was Shen Ye surprised, but even Xiao Mengyu turned her head to look at the dog.

No, it should be a wolf.

“Brother Yunye, I didn’t expect you to also be able to transform into a wolf,” Shen Ye cupped his hands and said, “Transform back first, let’s discuss.”

Who knew that the wolf just gave him a faint glance, proudly turned its head, and continued to squat there motionless.

—It completely ignored him!

Shen Ye looked at Zhang Xiaoyi.

“Don’t call him a wolf, he thinks he’s a dog,” Zhang Xiaoyi whispered.

“Huh?” Shen Ye also whispered.

“After he transforms, his mind gets a bit messed up, not only does he forget that he’s human, he also doesn’t admit he’s a wolf, he just identifies as a dog,” Zhang Xiaoyi whispered.

Shen Ye was stunned.

A person, transformed into a wolf, then thinks he’s a dog.

It was spectacular.
