Chapter Index

    Shen Ye didn’t know what would happen.

    But no matter what happened, this book still needed an hour.

    So, wait?

    He put the Sect Master’s Treasure Manual into his bosom and fell into thought.

    At this moment—

    His “Star Shift” was fully activated.

    He also had a new profession.

    —Unless Nine Aspects died, or he himself died, no one else could take up this profession!

    The mythical entry quest was also down to the final step.

    —But he didn’t want to create it hastily.

    He’d wait until the Voodoo Boy was stronger, and then merge the entries.

    All urgent matters had been completed.

    Since he had to wait an hour—

    He would go back to that island first and see how his classmates were doing!

    Shen Ye’s figure vibrated, and he flew up, straight towards the waterfall.

    Lilith was already squatting on the rock by the waterfall, waiting.

    “How is the situation?”

    Shen Ye asked.

    “It’s nothing but zombies, monsters, and such. They can handle it,” Lilith said lazily.

    “Is anyone injured?” Shen Ye asked again.

    “Yes, but no one died—no one noticed when I made my move, and besides, they need practical combat experience,” Lilith said.

    Shen Ye nodded and said nothing.

    Everyone needed practical combat experience.

    Ever since Xu Xingke brought this up, he had deeply understood this point.

    If Lilith really acted as a nanny and displayed incredibly powerful divine strength, it would instead make everyone feel ill at ease, and even wary of her.

    —After all, she was just a high school freshman girl!

    Shen Ye then flew back with her.

    Not long after.

    An island surrounded by a lake appeared in front of them.

    Some rudimentary fortifications had already been set up on the island.

    It seemed that no one had been idle during his absence.

    “Shen Ye?”

    Zhang Xiaoyi’s voice rang out from afar.

    Yun Ni glanced at Shen Ye, then melted into the surrounding darkness and disappeared.

    “It’s me,” Shen Ye said.

    “Great.”

    Under everyone’s gaze, Shen Ye swooped forward and landed on the island.

    Looking around.

    Many classmates held weapons, their expressions vigilant, ready for battle at any moment.

    Nangong Sirui glanced at Shen Ye, annoyed:

    “What the hell have you been doing? You’ve been gone for too long.”

    He looked calm, one hand rubbing his chin, while the other was tucked into his sleeve, not taken out.

    “Nonsense, it’s dangerous down there, I had to investigate thoroughly, didn’t I?” Shen Ye said.

    Xiao Mengyu scanned him up and down twice, and, seeing that he had no injuries, breathed a sigh of relief and stood aside, saying nothing more.

    —So many people were watching!

    “What exactly is the situation down there?” Nangong Sirui asked.

    “The monsters in the great tomb are fighting with the aliens, and they’re fighting fiercely. I was afraid of being caught in the crossfire, so I hurried back,” Shen Ye said.

    Everyone was shocked upon hearing this.

    “It’s really strange, why are those invading calamities desperately exploring deeper into the great tomb?” Zhang Xiaoyi asked, puzzled.

    “They’ve really kicked a steel plate this time,” Zhou Heng said coldly. “For thousands of years, we humans have only explored the surface of this great tomb. Do they really think the great tomb is an amusement park?”

    A flash of inspiration struck Shen Ye.

    He pointed at Zhou Heng and shouted loudly:

    “Exactly!”

    Everyone present was confused.

    Shen Ye became excited, grabbed Nangong Sirui’s hand, and exclaimed:

    “Call out all your older sisters.”

    “What for? My sisters are all proper artifact spirits,” Nangong Sirui asked warily.

    “I didn’t say they weren’t proper—your shield spirits are good at defense, so they can help us defend, and we’ll all head back!” Shen Ye said.

    “Head back? The way back is blocked,” Guo Yunye interjected, puzzled.

    “We’ll dig a path through the rock wall!”

    Shen Ye said in a deep voice:

    “We need to get back to the surface now—with the aliens deep in the tomb, that powerful bombardment from before won’t happen again.”

    “We can climb up, and get out in one go!”

    That’s right!

    Everyone became excited.

    The beam attacks from the alien planet were indeed terrifying, even the defenses of the breathing soil couldn’t withstand them.

    That’s why everyone was knocked down.

    Now, as long as there were no such bombardments, they could escape to safety!

    —At least they needed to know what was happening outside and how their families were doing!

    “Good idea! Let’s get moving!”

    Zhang Xiaoyi shouted.

    “Those who can participate in the digging work, please raise your hands,” Nangong Sirui also said.

    Everyone raised their hands.

    Suddenly.

    A strange voice sounded from not far away:

    “What an excellent group of young talents.”

    As the voice fell.

    Everyone instantly froze.

    On the entire underground island, all sounds fell silent.

    Time seemed to have paused.

    But the blowing wind, the gurgling water, and the occasional rolling sand and stones proved that time was still ongoing.

    Only the students remained motionless, their expressions dull and blank, completely unaware of their surroundings.

    Only—

    “Who are you?”

    Shen Ye asked in a deep voice.

    He glanced at the ground.

    In that instant, countless faint lights appeared as small characters:

    “Your six senses have been sealed by an unknown spell.”

    “The sealed you automatically transitioned into ‘I Exist in the Mirror’, and another body from ‘I Exist in the Mirror’ replaced your body for your soul to use.”

    “All attributes of the current body are maxed out.”

    “Your Dharma Aspect: Guanghan Palace, has been reversed through ‘I Exist in the Mirror’, forming the Dharma Aspect: Eastern Emperor Hall in this body.”

    “Your innate talent: the ‘Door’ ability no longer possesses the power of two-world linkage, but has reversed to form an unknown door.”

    So that’s how it is!

    This “I Exist in the Mirror” meant he now had two health bars, two bodies, and a completely reversed Dharma Aspect!

    That’s why he avoided that spell!

    To put it further—

    Once the Dharma Aspect changed, the effects of all his skills when activated would completely change!

    Lilith suddenly flew out of the darkness and landed.

    Her expression was a little desperate, and she spoke quickly:

    “Don’t fight him, he is the strongest of the ‘Five Desires’, Mākagaho.”

    Shen Ye raised an eyebrow and looked into the depths of the darkness.

    He saw a figure slowly rising from the ground.

    This person was wearing a long black robe with a hood, and his face was obscured.

    “Lord of the Lamenting Demon Prison… Tianluo went to negotiate with the strong people on this planet for your sake, but I didn’t expect you to be here.”

    The black-robed figure, called “Mākagaho,” spoke.

    Lilith said, “Reporting, Lord, I was bound to this person by the Chaos Spirit Light, my life is tied to his, and I cannot escape. I was unaware of Lord Tianluo’s affairs.”

    Mākagaho spoke:

    “This is…”

    His whole body moved, and immediately a pair of giant hands appeared from the void, forming mudras on his left and right sides respectively, with their fingers joined above his head.

    Rumble—

    A black gate emerged behind him, and a huge vertical eye opened on the gate, slowly rotating and staring at Shen Ye.

    The Door!

    He also had a Door!

    Shen Ye felt his blood run cold.

    —Although he had changed bodies, at this moment, he knew he was no match for the opponent.

    The pair of giant hands around the opponent exuded a divine aura.

    A bit like Yazi, and also like the Underworld Lord Mictetikasiwa.

    But they were much stronger than both!

    Not to mention that dark door; the mere aura it emitted was already pushing Shen Ye’s powers to the brink of losing control.

    …Too strong.

    Who could fight him?

    At this point, the killing intent on Mākagaho’s body diminished significantly.

    “I thought it was someone from this planet, but it turns out Nine Aspects has also cultivated subordinates. Truly rare.”

    He said in a teasing tone.

    The ring on Shen Ye’s hand moved slightly, completely out of his control, and opened directly.

    Two bottles of “Calamity Source Power” quietly appeared.

    And then, Nine Aspects’ teeth automatically leaped out, floating in mid-air, spinning continuously.

    —This was proof of identity!

    “Interesting… Too Enraged, Tianluo, and Nine Aspects have all dispatched subordinates. It seems everyone is quite motivated.”

    Mākagaho said with a smile.

    While he was speaking, the objects floating in mid-air all returned to Shen Ye’s ring.

    Immediately after.

    A human head flew out of the ring.

    —It was indeed Tianluo’s subordinate from the Valley of Ten Thousand Bones in Hell!

    “Hmm… this is Tianluo’s subordinate, what’s going on?”

    Mākagaho asked this, yet he didn’t let Shen Ye answer at all.

    The vertical eye on the dark door shot out a beam of light that struck the head, then immediately reflected onto Shen Ye.

    The head and Shen Ye were connected by the light.

    What happened to the two of them instantly transformed into light and shadow, reappearing.

    Hell.

    Thousands of Bones Valley.

    The scenes of the leader provoking Shen Ye, and then being killed by Shen Ye, flashed one after another.

    —Secrets were completely exposed!

    “Sigh.”

    Mākagaho looked at the scene, and the killing intent on him completely vanished.

    “Frankly, everyone originally designated Nine Aspects to be in charge of matters in hell…”

    His tone carried a hint of distress:

    “I don’t approve of Tianluo doing this.”

    At this moment.

    Shen Ye suddenly understood something.

    —Actually, at first, the other party wanted to kill him.

    But after seeing what happened in hell, and realizing it was a conflict between Tianluo and Nine Aspects, Mākagaho dispelled the idea of killing him.

    Killing an ant was nothing.

    Killing everyone here was just a small matter.

    But Nine Aspects’ people were here, mixed with the humans of this planet.

    —This meant that Nine Aspects had a secret plan of action and interests among these people.

    Tianluo and Nine Aspects disliked each other and had been secretly fighting for so long.

    Their conflict was almost impossible to conceal.

    If Mākagaho were to intervene further, casually kill Nine Aspects’ people here, and disrupt Nine Aspects’ plan—

    It would definitely make things more complicated.

    Nine Aspects would surely think he was siding with Tianluo, thus harboring resentment towards him.

    Mākagaho silently sighed in his heart.

    This was to make an enemy for no reason.

    —Why should I meddle in this muddy water!

    “Forget it, I won’t get involved in the matters between your masters, or your plans.”

    “I need to quickly head to the depths of the great tomb.”

    After Mākagaho finished speaking, his figure flashed and he vanished from the spot.

    After several breaths.

    Everything on the island gradually returned to normal.

    The wind blew.

    Only then did Shen Ye realize he was covered in cold sweat.
