Gatekeeper of Myriad Worlds Chapter 252

Shen Ye watched the group of professionals jump into the abyss.

They met the imperial cosmic worm.

Several of the most agile professionals rushed towards the cosmic giant worm, crashing into it, pulling out powerful artifacts, and vigorously stabbing the worm’s body.

Although they were all artifacts, they still couldn’t harm the worm in the slightest.

Only a long spear pierced through the shell.

“Quick!”

The professional roared.

Shen Ye saw a drop of golden liquid fall from the broken shell.

A professional took the golden liquid and turned to escape.

Those who were not killed by the worm rushed up, shielding him from the cosmic giant worm’s attacks.

—Even if they died in battle, they would not retreat an inch.

The aged voice sounded again:

“This is the true blood of the imperial species, and we finally obtained it.”

The scene shifted.

The drop of blood was studied using countless methods.

It was used to draw talismans, outline spell formations, and create weapons, but all failed.

Finally.

It was swallowed by a person whose body was filled with destructive talismans.

The aged voice sounded:

“Swallowing this blood will make one extremely strong in a short time, surpassing all human professionals, but within a few minutes, one will lose consciousness and explode to death.”

The person’s body erupted with world-destroying power fluctuations, and he immediately charged into the underground abyss to fight the cosmic giant worm.

Unfortunately—

Even if he surpassed all human professionals and became an supreme being, he could not deal with the cosmic giant worm.

The person only attacked a few times before fleeing in disarray.

His body exploded into a cloud of blood mist in mid-air.

The golden blood beads remained perfectly intact, still floating in mid-air.

The aged voice sounded again:

“After hundreds of years of research, we have achieved a result—”

The scene flashed.

In a wilderness.

Several powerful professionals gathered together, unleashed their Dharmakayas, and fully activated that drop of golden cosmic giant worm’s blood.

From that golden drop of blood, waves of insect cries emanated, attacking everything around with sound waves.

Nothing could resist the attack of this spell.

Heaven and earth split open for it.

The magnificent power cut towards the heavens, and after a few breaths, it went far into the cosmos, no longer detectable.

Except for the controllers, all the other onlookers died.

The expressions of the few controllers gradually turned mad, and layers of carapace gradually appeared on their bodies, transforming them towards a non-human direction.

The old man’s voice sounded again:

“Insect Blood Bursting Art.”

“All of our human super-limit burst secret techniques are gathered together to form the strongest potential activation art, used on this insect blood.”

“The user will enter an invincible state, barely comparable to the cosmic giant worm’s strongest attack.”

“But there is a very high probability of losing one’s mind.”

“—The research reached a dead end.”

The scene vanished.

And flashed again.

Shen Ye found himself standing in a grand hall.

The entire hall was filled with professionals from ancient times, and each of their gazes fell upon Shen Ye.

The white-haired old Daoist stood beside Shen Ye and said:

“Over the past several millennia, we have continuously searched for a way, and finally found a method that allows you not to lose your mind.”

“That is to use all of our souls to activate an ancient spell.”

“At the cost of our souls, we will help you activate this ‘Insect Blood Bursting Art’—”

“This drop of blood can be used one more time with this spell!”

“If your situation is too urgent and you don’t have several years to slowly increase your strength, then use this.”

“In an absolute last resort, deliver a fierce blow to it on behalf of all humanity!”

“Even if it doesn’t kill it, it will severely injure it, and perhaps even make it flee in disarray.”

As the voice fell.

That drop of golden glowing imperial worm blood quietly appeared.

It floated above the old man’s palm.

Shen Ye looked at the blood drop, and then at the many souls.

Yes.

The great tomb had opened.

By watching the historical fragments just now, it could be fully determined that the imperial worm was slumbering deep within the great tomb!

He truly had no time left.

The invasion of the “Five Desires” made everything feel incredibly urgent.

He reached out his hand.

Under the gaze of the crowd, the white-haired old Daoist gently guided it.

The golden glowing blood drop landed on Shen Ye’s hand.

“When you need to activate it, open the Palm Master’s Treasure Scroll; our souls are all here.”

The white-haired old Daoist said.

Shen Ye looked at the drop of blood, and after a while, he replied:

“No.”

“No?” The white-haired old Daoist asked in surprise.

“That’s right,” Shen Ye stared at the golden blood drop, “I looked at the past events and realized that the imperial species is invincible.”

“Indeed,” the white-haired old Daoist nodded, “In the long battles, even the strongest beings among us humans couldn’t defeat it.”

“I know you all racked your brains and poured your heart’s blood into this, finally mastering this technique that surpasses all human power,” Shen Ye continued.

“But what if I strike it and it doesn’t run away?”

“There was no hope to begin with—only with this move is there a slight chance of driving it away,” the white-haired old Daoist sighed.

Shen Ye’s gaze swept across the hall, looking at the powerful figures from history.

“Gambling is not a good thing, I refuse.”

He said.

“Then choose the training room? If you have several years, perhaps with our help, you can become very strong,” the white-haired old Daoist said.

“No,” Shen Ye said.

“Why?”

“There’s no time.”

Everyone was astonished.

On the stage, a burly man shouted:

“Kid, you don’t want this, you don’t want that, what exactly do you want?!”

“Today’s wine for today’s sorrow, tomorrow’s troubles for tomorrow,” Shen Ye said casually, arms crossed, letting the golden blood pearl float in mid-air.

The souls savored his words for a moment.

A stunning woman snorted, “So you choose nothing, nor do you want to use our power to fight, you just want to drag this out?”

“Yes,” Shen Ye said.

Everyone fell silent.

Someone sighed, “To think that the last successor of the Huntian Sect is a cowardly person.”

The white-haired old Daoist, however, looked at Shen Ye and said gently:

“After the inheritance was almost severed, to become a successor of the Huntian Sect, one must pass the test of that human effigy.”

“That is a life-and-death test.”

“Child—I don’t think you are a cowardly person.”

Shen Ye laughed, “Back then, someone framed me, and I had to enter that test. Actually, I didn’t want to enter such a life-or-death situation at all.”

Now even the white-haired old Daoist had nothing to say.

Shen Ye saw that they were all silent and spoke:

“You’ve been busy for thousands of years, why don’t you rest? Don’t you want to?”

Under everyone’s gaze.

Shen Ye’s lips slightly curved, and he added:

“It’s enough.”

“It’s enough? What does that mean?” the burly man glared at him, demanding.

“From birth to death, you have all been fighting for the continuation of the human race. I think it’s enough.”

Shen Ye continued earnestly:

“Work is not all of life; there’s no need to be so strenuous.”

“Rest in peace.”

As his words fell.

He reached out, grabbed the drop of blood, and swallowed it.

The next instant.

The door to the lounge was kicked open by him.

“You—” The panda seemed to sense something, and all its fur stood on end.

A blur flashed.

Shen Ye crashed through the office door and returned to the underground tomb.

The second hand ticked.

1 second.

He pressed his hand against the rock wall and shouted, “Star Shift.”

A teleportation coordinate was set.

He had to be fast.

He would explode to death in about a few minutes.

So he had to be fast!

2 seconds.

Infinite power emanated from him, turning into substantial light flames in the darkness.

Shen Ye quietly felt his own changes.

He suddenly looked at the void.

Micro-lights condensed into small characters, displaying his five basic attributes.

Each item was wildly leaping upwards.

His intuition became extraordinarily keen, like a wild beast.

—No.

A wild beast’s intuition could not reach this level.

Perhaps it should be called perception.

“Although there’s a Magahou in the great tomb, my classmates are all here. If a fight breaks out, they might be affected—”

“Xi Rang High School has been under attack for so long, and the teachers haven’t come, which means the teachers have also encountered powerful enemies.”

“My time is limited. I can neither kill all the monsters in the great tomb nor defeat the imperial cosmic worm.”

“It’s better to have a Tian Ji’s horse racing strategy.”

5th second.

Boom—

Shen Ye’s body moved, and he rushed out from his spot, stirring up a furious wind.

7th second.

The strong wind, carrying a gray blur, passed through the long underground lake, crashing into the collapsed tunnel. Ignoring that it was already blocked, it cut through it like tofu, flying upward with all its might.

8th second.

The blur rushed out of the collapsed tunnel, using all fours to climb and run at full speed on the vertical cliff.

“Big Skeleton, give me something to cover my face!”

“You have so many undead armors, any helmet will do!”

“Okay!”

13th second.

A loud noise came from the plaza of Xi Rang High School.

The blur shot into the sky, transforming back into Shen Ye.

However, he was now wearing an undead helmet, its dark faceplate obscuring his facial features.

Across the vast sky and land—

He looked in one direction.

“Such powerful and sharp sword energy… This must be Sword Princess…”

“Hmm, the battle fluctuations here are even greater; I can feel the teacher’s aura.”

Shen Ye transformed into a streak of light and flew towards a certain direction.

His speed became faster and faster.

At a certain moment.

A violent tremor suddenly erupted in the sky.

On the other side.

Over the sea.

Xu Xingke, covered in blood, laughed loudly:

“Excellent! Your skill is excellent!”

Tian Luo’s armor was shattered and covered in blood, and he shouted sternly:

“Crazy guy, do you never consider your injuries when fighting?”

“Can’t handle it?” Xu Xingke said disdainfully.

“Hmph… watch my next move…” Tian Luo formed a spell with both hands.

Who knew Xu Xingke waved his hand and said, “Stop playing, let’s fight to the death.”

Tian Luo was stunned.

“I don’t have time to slowly probe with you anymore. My next move will be my strongest spell. Let’s see who is superior, you or I,” Xu Xingke said.

“Our strengths should be evenly matched. Using the strongest move might result in mutual destruction,” Tian Luo said.

“No, I will kill you,” Xu Xingke said.

He clasped his hands together and began to form a spell.

Behind him, an endless, majestic city wall rose from the sea level.

His Dharmakaya had manifested!

Next was the ultimate move!

Tian Luo’s eyelids twitched, and he cried out, “Damn it… then bring it on!”

He clasped his hands together again, forming a spell.

Boundless stars appeared behind him.

It was time to decide the victor!

Just then, unexpected change erupted—

“Die!”

Someone roared in the void.

A blur streaked by, swinging a fist, and with a single blow, smashed Tian Luo into the sea.

Rumble!

The sea erupted into giant waves hundreds of meters high.

A tsunami quickly formed, rolling away into the distance.

Xu Xingke was stunned for a moment, staring intently at the blur.

“Grass…”

He muttered softly.

Shen Ye held his undead helmet and asked:

“Teacher, what did you just say?”

“…Look, after your last attack, a lot of seagrass appeared on the surface of the sea. Seagrass is the only type of higher angiosperm that can live completely in seawater. Coastal fishermen often use seagrass as a material for building roofs, which provides excellent insulation and rain protection.”

“Teacher, you know so much.”
