Gates of the Myriad Realms Chapter 446

The broken Crown of Truth.

It had been cleaned, revealing a mottled white gold, with invisible ripples swirling around it in the void.

Shen Ye placed it on the wooden floor of the real estate office, observing it quietly.

After a few breaths.

Lines of faint glowing text quietly appeared:

“The broken Crown of Truth.”

“Unwearable, collectible, holy relic.”

“Description: An ancient crown completely lost in the War of Truth. Due to its long slumber, it needs at least five components to form a resonance before it can awaken again.”

“—There have been many truths throughout history, but they have been buried by time for too long, thus falling into an eternal slumber, buried deep in the mines.”

So that’s what the Truth Mine was all about.

Shen Ye felt a slight twinge of emotion.

This crown, if it had value, could awaken if five pieces were gathered.

If it had no value—

He had no idea where to find the other four pieces.

Perhaps no one knew.

—A white elephant.

Shen Ye’s mind stirred, and he simply commanded his avatar to dig again in the mine.

The avatar left with a pickaxe, returned to the spot where he had just dug in the mine, and started working again.

“You start mining again.”

“Mining.”

“Mining.”

“Swish—”

“Several treasures rolled down from the mine wall onto the ground.”

“They are the broken Truth Shoulder Plate, Gauntlets, Cloak, Belt, Armor, and Boots.”

“Congratulations!”

“…” Shen Ye.

Alright.

A complete set buried together.

That’s reasonable.

Shen Ye had his avatar carry everything back to the real estate office, and then a new prompt quietly appeared:

“A black mist is rising from the depths of the mine, and it’s heading this way.”

“Continue digging?”

Dig my ass.

This clearly indicated that he had unearthed treasures, attracting the attention of monsters.

Hiding was the priority.

Shen Ye had his avatar lock the door of the real estate office, and then inevitably fell into contemplation.

—From the very beginning until now, all the monsters and treasures had been dug up.

If a monster were free, wouldn’t it be able to wander to his real estate cabin and then—

Tear down his house?

Shen Ye’s heart tightened.

No, that’s not right.

The real estate cabin was his Tier 1 Gate ability.

Since it was an ability, it could be put away.

As his thought formed, a line of prompts quietly appeared:

“Putting away your Gate ability will return the real estate cabin to its original state, and you will lose the wooden floor you’ve installed.”

No!

The wooden floor changed the time flow rate from one month to three months, and there was a certain chance of comprehending moves containing truth.

He absolutely couldn’t give up the cabin unless absolutely necessary!

Shen Ye immediately became serious.

Currently, he only had the wooden floor and the recently acquired Truth Set.

That’s right, check the set!

He gazed at the broken Crown of Truth, Shoulder Plate, Gauntlets, Cloak, Belt, Armor, and Boots.

—Two more pieces than required!

Unwearable.

Then put them together!

Seeing the black mist outside the window getting thicker, Shen Ye controlled his avatar to assemble the various Truth components.

Surprisingly, there were corresponding clasps and grooves between these components.

The avatar assembled the entire set of armor in a few quick movements.

He placed the armor against the wall.

Soon.

A faint light emerged from the armor.

Lines of prompts quickly appeared:

“You have assembled the Truth Set, a total of seven pieces.”

“This set is currently complete.”

“‘Broken Truth’ set begins to awaken!”

“Congratulations.”

“You have gained the effect ‘Glimmer of Truth in Suffering’.”

“Description: The glimmer penetrates obstacles, illuminating an area of one hundred cubic meters, possessing the following energies:”

“1. Any hostile entity stepping into the ‘Glimmer’ barrier will continuously endure pain beyond their limits, steadily losing vitality, developing wounds difficult to heal, and dying instantly.”

“2. You can resurrect beings within the ‘Glimmer’ barrier, limited to seven times per day.”

“—Suffering and devotion lead you to the holy land.”

So this set could protect the house!

Shen Ye breathed a sigh of relief and quickly looked out the window.

Indeed, a layer of holy glimmering barrier had condensed not far outside the window.

The dark mist, upon nearing the glimmering barrier, immediately made a “hissing” sound and quickly dissipated.

The things hidden in the dark mist scurried around, not daring to approach.

After a long while.

The dark mist gradually stabilized, merely lingering outside the holy barrier, not approaching.

It’s safe!

If digging up monsters was the “first hurdle,” then this dark mist was probably the “second hurdle.”

Shen Ye looked back at the broken Truth Set—

A sense of spiritual connection subtly emerged in his mind.

He could control this set!

Since that was the case, why not see what was in the dark mist?

Shen Ye controlled his avatar, opened the door, and walked out of the cabin.

The avatar stood a few meters in front of the door, covered his eyes with a cloth, activated the “Pride of the Blind” and “Lord of the Sun Wheel” terms, and then—

The light of the set extinguished.

—Shen Ye paused the power of the set.

The light barrier also disappeared.

The black mist surged in at once, spreading rapidly around the cabin.

“Come on… let me see what it is…”

Shen Ye murmured.

One breath.

Two breaths.

Three breaths.

In the darkness.

A shadow suddenly lunged.

It first knocked Shen Ye’s avatar to the ground, biting fiercely!

Unfortunately—

The effect of Truth suppression was activated.

No matter how it bit, the avatar was not injured.

He scrambled to his feet, running around the cabin, trying to evade the opponent.

Seeing this, the monster became even more arrogant, chasing and biting relentlessly.

“Eight… nine… ten…”

Shen Ye chanted.

A shriek.

The monster fell to the ground, twitched for a while, and then stopped moving.

Lines of faint glowing text quickly appeared:

“The ‘Kua Fu’ you designated is dead.”

The avatar stopped.

Light.

Shen Ye chanted.

The glimmer barrier bloomed again, enveloping the cabin and its surroundings.

With the light, the appearance of the monster naturally became clear.

“To think there’s such a strange creature…”

Shen Ye couldn’t help but murmur.

On the ground lay a creature that was half cat, half dog.

It was called a cat-dog because it had two heads, one at each end of its body: one was a black, leopard-like feline head; the other end’s head was that of a fierce dog.

A very strange creature!

Lines of faint glowing text appeared beside the monster’s corpse:

“???”

“Unknown entity.”

“Description: Will reanimate ten minutes after death, with strength increasing thirtyfold.”

There’s something like that!

—Who allowed you to reanimate?

“Resurrect.”

Shen Ye chanted.

Within the glimmer barrier, a dazzling light fell upon the monster.

“Under the ‘Glimmer of Truth in Suffering’, resurrection is possible seven times a day.”

“One use already, six remaining.”

Snap.

The monster leaped up from the ground, staring fiercely at Shen Ye’s avatar.

—It had resurrected.

Shen Ye immediately retracted the “Glimmer” and asked:

“Hey, you have heads at both ends of your body, how do you go to the toilet?”

The monster, which was about to pounce, stopped in its tracks after hearing his question.

It carefully moved its two heads to the side.

“Wow, so you have two anuses—isn’t that awfully smelly?”

Shen Ye asked seriously.

The monster stiffened, then suddenly grew enraged!

“Meow woof—”

It roared and lunged at the avatar again.

The avatar bolted.

The monster chased behind.

Ten seconds.

Thud.

The monster fell to the ground and died again.

A line of faint glowing text popped up:

“Reanimates after ten minutes, strength increases thirtyfold.”

Don’t die!

Shen Ye released the glimmer for resurrection again.

The monster opened its eyes and immediately tried to pounce on the avatar.

But this time, Shen Ye didn’t remove the glimmer barrier—

“Awooo, awooo, awooo!”

Under the illumination of the glimmer, the monster let out screams of agony and turned to flee outside the barrier.

Run?

The avatar grabbed the monster’s leg, clutching it in his arms.

Temporary Secret Technique—

Sunbathing!

The avatar lifted the monster high, allowing the light to shine on it, emitting pain as if being cut by a thousand knives.

The monster let out increasingly louder screams, finally unable to bear it, and its two heads bit each other, letting out a forceful “crunch”!

Preferring death!

Rather than torture!

“Hey—don’t die yet.” Shen Ye’s voice suddenly rang out again.

The monster had died extremely peacefully and with great determination, but the moment it heard these words, an ominous feeling suddenly arose in its heart.

When it awakened again, it found its four limbs bound.

Its entire body was in a “U” shape, with its two heads’ crowns pressed against each other.

This prevented them from biting each other again.

The glimmer old barrier was retracted.

The human squatted in front of it and said:

“My other friends can’t get in here, and I’m very lonely, why don’t you keep me company?”

“Meow woof…” The monster hesitated, growling softly.

“You don’t have to do anything else on weekdays, just guard the door and report any movement in time,” Shen Ye said.

The monster’s two heads rubbed against each other restlessly.

Restless?

Shen Ye had his avatar draw a long blade and lift it high:

“If not friends, then enemies. We can do what we just did countless times again.”

A cold gleam flashed on the blade.

Around them, scenes of the eighteen layers of hell gradually appeared.

Immediately after.

That glimmer lit up again!

The monster suddenly let out a long, fawning cry.

It agreed!

Shen Ye breathed a sigh of relief and had his avatar put down the blade.

At this moment, lines of prompts appeared in the void beside the monster:

“You have gained the loyalty of ???.”

“You need to further understand its secrets to better command it.”

“Furthermore, loyalty is not eternal.”

All the small words retracted.

He untied the monster, and was about to ask something else, when he suddenly noticed a change outside.

Then let’s cultivate first; he would deal with external matters later.

“Rest, we’ll go mining later.”

The avatar said.

The monster nodded and obediently lay down in front of the cabin door.

Shen Ye then had his avatar return to the room to continue cultivating, and then quickly withdrew his attention to check the latest news from the Cosmic Council.

—The Cosmic Council finally verified the mission.

The mission evaluation appeared again:

“Confirmed completed.”

“The Heaven-Shaking Art is an epochal power related to the ultimate secrets of the universe. That you could uncover this intelligence within the Dao Palace, it’s no wonder the Saintly Venerable wouldn’t let you go.”

“In short, you have suffered.”

“This intelligence has been verified as correct and is of great significance, therefore, you are awarded 700 points of merit!”

So generous?

I have more intelligence.

—But at this point, it wasn’t convenient to reveal too much.

Lest they begin to suspect him.

Shen Ye, with a thought, closed the mission page and opened the merit exchange page instead.

“Spend 300 merit points to exchange for merit reward:”

“Tarot Six.”

“Current remaining merit points: 510.”

Along with his operation, the void suddenly opened.

A long tentacle reached in, placed a small wooden box in front of Shen Ye, and then retracted.

Shen Ye opened the box.

Inside, there was indeed a tarot card.

The card depicted a snowy wilderness with monkeys soaking in a hot spring on this midwinter day.

“Winter of No Events.”

“Tarot Card Six.”

“Description: Resting in the hot spring for fifteen minutes will remove all negative effects on the body.”

“—May the year be peaceful and auspicious.”

The matter was settled.

Go back?

Go back.

—But he wondered how the Saintly Venerable in the Taishang Dao Palace of the 99th Dimension Universe would deal with the Cosmic Council.

In any case, it probably wouldn’t be easy for him.

Being able to cause him some trouble actually felt quite good.

Shen Ye pulled up the Council’s teleportation coordinate collection and found the Death Planet.

“Teleportation to the Death Planet requires 2 merit points.”

“Teleport?”

“Yes,” Shen Ye said.

In the void, a super-long-distance teleportation array quietly descended, surrounding Shen Ye.

The spatial laws on the array operated at full power.

Swish—

He disappeared from the Cosmic Council.

…

Death Planet.

Shen Ye drew another tarot card—

Battle Instructor Master.

“Brother, I need your help with something,” Shen Ye said.

“At your service, it’s a beautiful autumn day, Fancy some wine?” the Battle Instructor Master asked.

“No need for wine, please give this card to my teacher,” Shen Ye took out the tarot card.

Smash.

The Battle Instructor Master crushed his wine glass, exclaiming:

“It’s a special scene card!”

“Yes, send it to my teacher, can you do it?” Shen Ye asked.

“Of course!”

The Battle Instructor Master took the card from his hand and hurried away.

The card he was on was covered with a curtain, and a line of text was pasted on it:

“Visiting friends.”

Alright!

This matter was resolved. If there were more tarot cards in the future, he would help his teacher find them.

As for now—

“The Primordial Ruins have simulated the destruction of the previous multi-layered universe.”

“You are the chosen one, and you can participate at any time.”

“Sign up again?”

“Sign up,” Shen Ye said.

“The length of the current replayed war segment has been extended to 11 minutes and 19 seconds, and intelligence about the Indomitable Giant has been obtained.”

“Entering soon!”

The world flashed by.

Immediately after.

Shen Ye found himself standing on the deck of a giant ship.

—It started again!

“Hi, Shen Ye, you’re here too?”

A familiar voice rang out.

Shen Ye turned his head and saw it was Xu Xingke.

“Teacher! You’re here too!”

Shen Ye greeted him warmly.

Before his eyes, faint glowing text constantly appeared:

“Your Gate ability has reached Tier 1 ‘Interwoven Truth and Destiny’.”

“Truth Suppression activated!”

“You have insight into the opponent’s Gate ability.”

“The opponent’s Gate ability is:”

“Gate of Friendship.”

—This guy again!

Damn it, he always made him call him teacher.

But time was pressing now, and he had no time to play with him!

Shen Ye once again covered his eyes with a cloth strip and strode towards the ship’s cabin, saying:

“Teacher, I’m busy right now. We can talk later if there’s anything.”

Xu Xingke narrowed his eyes.

—Why did the other party cover his eyes?

Was there some special custom for entering the cabin?

No, that wouldn’t do.

He had to go too!

He hurriedly tore off a strip of cloth, covered his own eyes with it, and followed Shen Ye into the cabin.

“Shen Ye, what are you doing?”

“Taking shelter, Teacher!”

“You can take shelter by covering your eyes? What’s the logic there?” the other party pressed.

“It’s my personal style habit, this ‘vibe’ is called ‘Blind Monk’. Teacher, you haven’t played with our young people’s things, so you naturally wouldn’t know,” Shen Ye said.

“Is that all?”

Before Shen Ye could answer, the monsters in the sea unleashed a volley of spells.

A surging light of destruction filled the entire giant ship.

No one could escape its reaping.

Shen Ye raised an eyebrow in surprise.

—This was completely different from last time!

Last time, the monsters only capsized the giant ship and then ignored it.

This time, they intended to destroy the giant ship and everything on it!

He had provided new intelligence.

So the simulated plot was completely different?

Rumble—

Countless crew members were thrown from the giant ship.

All around were sea monsters waiting to devour humans.

“Xu Xingke” was unprepared and was also hit by the destructive spell light.

“No—damn it, how dare you attack me?”

His tone was savage and fierce.

Boom!

The spell devoured him.

—He died right there, getting kicked out!

Shen Ye no longer paid attention to this guy, quickened his pace, and swiftly arrived at the place where he had previously obtained the gemstone.

He saw an old man with white hair standing there, covered in wounds and clearly at death’s door.

“Have you come for the weapon?”

The old man asked hopefully.

“Yes, I will take it to the city,” Shen Ye said.

“That’s great—the entire naval fleet has been annihilated, and seven or eight more fleets were sent out to confuse the enemy. We finally arrived here, but unfortunately we’ve been exposed.” The old man sighed.

He held a gemstone in his hand.

“I can feel the ultimate power of an epoch on you—you are one of us!”

“Yes, sir,” Shen Ye admitted.

“Then go, the rest is up to you.”

The gemstone fell into Shen Ye’s hand.

Lines of faint glowing text quickly flashed:

“You have obtained the weapon: Indomitable Giant.”

“This is an extremely ancient ultimate weapon from a multi-layered universe, long since lost to history, with its forging and maintenance methods also lost.”

“Please use with caution.”

So that’s how it is!

He had heard intelligence about the Indomitable Giant, so the multi-verse simulated it!
