Gates of the Myriad Realms Chapter 606

Darkness.

Darkness obscured everything.

When Shen Ye fell, he had already drawn his long saber.

Even though darkness obscured everything and sealed his five senses, it could not stop his strike—

Scattered Flowers!

Instantly.

The dark world was replaced by endless lines.

Each line represented a trajectory of fate.

“Hmm? Strange…”

Shen Ye mumbled, then retracted his saber and stood still.

The endless lines of fate instantly vanished.

The world was once again enveloped in darkness.

—In that instant, Shen Ye observed the countless fates drawn by his saber intent, only to find that countless black lines of fate formed a towering platform.

He stood on this platform.

In other words, he stood amidst endless death and destiny.

What was even more subtle was that if he remained still, these black lines would not be triggered.

One move would lead to eternal damnation.

Shen Ye closed his eyes slightly, calmed himself, and carefully recalled the fate images he had just seen.

—There were too many black lines.

He couldn’t cut them all.

The only correct choice was to remain still and not provoke them.

But—

Was he to stand here forever?

From the depths of the endless darkness, fragmented sounds gradually emerged.

Something was approaching.

Shen Ye gripped the hilt of his saber, paused for a moment, and then thought:

“What’s going on here?”

Indeed!

What exactly was going on here?!

As his thought emerged, in a distant place.

The Saint Realm of Entropy.

Good Duckling had just finished a night’s work, applied a facial mask, and was lying comfortably in a soft down comforter, preparing for a massage.

But when Shen Ye’s thought arrived, it immediately knew something was terribly wrong.

“Damn it!”

“What’s happening in the Pale World?”

The duck pulled out the Emblem of Entropy and immediately began to search for information about the “Pale World.”

In a moment.

Within the Pale World.

Shen Ye, standing in the darkness, received the information.

He shifted his long saber to his left hand, and with his right hand, formed a hand seal, casting a simple illumination spell.

Light.

As soon as the white light appeared, it immediately vanished.

Indeed, it was invisible here!

It could even be said that the “darkness” here was actually a super-large shielding spell!

“That’s right…”

Shen Ye whispered.

According to the information from the duck’s clone, one could learn something.

Three hundred years ago.

The monsters entrenched in the “Pale World” used all their power to release a super-large group seal—

The Dark Realm’s Deep Sealing World Technique.

This was because the monsters were about to completely conquer everything in the Pale World and a “Void Saint” level being was about to be born.

They worked together to prevent any being from approaching.

Once a “Saint” was born—

The laws of the Pale World would completely belong to them!

Shen Ye frowned tightly.

The Dark Realm’s Deep Sealing World Technique originated from the power of all the monsters on the entire planet.

He couldn’t break it alone.

What to do?

If he couldn’t see or sense anything, wouldn’t he be slaughtered by the monsters?

It would be better to go to the Dream World.

In the Dream World, at least he could fight!

As Shen Ye pondered, something in his hand suddenly vibrated.

He gently touched it.

—It was the Truth Phone.

If someone desperately wanted to talk to him, this phone would materialize.

Shen Ye answered the call.

What followed was a familiar voice:

“You went to the Pale World?”

Xu Xingke!

Shen Ye suddenly remembered Kaelon’s words.

The invitation was their spoil of war from the Eternal World.

—The human emperor once possessed it.

“Teacher?” Shen Ye asked.

“Answer me quickly, did you go to the Pale World?” Xu Xingke’s tone was a little hurried.

“Yes, I’m in the Pale World. It’s covered by a ‘Dark Realm’s Deep Sealing World Technique,’ and I can’t sense anything,” Shen Ye said.

“I remember you can swap skills—swap with me immediately—swap for my ‘Seal of Heavenly Mandate’! Quick!”

Xu Xingke urged.

At this moment.

The commotion from afar grew louder.

A mysterious unease also surged within Shen Ye’s heart.

But he dared not move.

One move meant death.

The teacher’s urging voice rang in his ears, and Shen Ye immediately complied.

In an instant.

Tiny glowing words appeared before Shen Ye:

“You activated ‘Passionate Comrade’ and exchanged skills with Xu Xingke.”

“You have obtained Xu Xingke’s ‘Seal of Heavenly Mandate’, and Xu Xingke has obtained your ‘Hand-held Hair Gel Styling Technique’.”

“Congratulations.”

“You have obtained the ‘Seal of Heavenly Mandate’.”

“You also possess the invitation to the Pale World.”

“‘Seal of Heavenly Mandate’ begins to take effect, making your world ‘contiguous’ with the Pale World.”

“You can escape the Pale World at any time using spatial teleportation.”

“Please begin to save the Pale World.”

Shen Ye was watching.

In the void, a soft “pop” sounded.

A glowing card landed in Shen Ye’s hand, instantly transforming into a torch burning with a pale flame.

The blazing fire lit up the surroundings.

“Teacher, is this the Seal of Heavenly Mandate?”

Shen Ye asked in surprise.

“Yes, this card solidifies a human talent, which is accepted by the Pale World, forming a contract, and further gaining assistance from the world. It can help you see everything in the Pale World,” Xu Xingke said.

The imperial seal was not an imperial seal; it was actually a card.

The card was not a card; it was actually a torch.

The torch was not a torch; it was actually a talent.

—The talent, based on the contract between humanity and the Pale World, formed a kind of authority.

It materialized as a torch that illuminates the darkness.

Tsk.

Too convoluted.

Shen Ye was silent for a moment, then looked around.

He found himself standing in an abandoned building made entirely of sand.

Strange-shaped corpses littered the ground.

Under the pale firelight, he could see a wooden table not far away.

A skeleton was sprawled on the table.

…Human remains.

“Did humans come here?”

Shen Ye asked.

“This is where humanity’s mission lies, Shen Ye,” Xu Xingke said.

“How so?” Shen Ye asked.

“If humans possess powerful laws, coupled with eternal power, they can gain a foothold in the Myriad Worlds.”

“But the laws are monopolized by those ancient and powerful species, not given to us humans.”

“So we need the ‘Pale’ law more than any other species!”

Xu Xingke said.

Shen Ye couldn’t help but nod.

Teacher was right.

Looking at the situations where he encountered obstacles everywhere and was asked for various benefits, he could tell how much humans needed a law.

“I—the Tarot vanguard I dispatched, has always tried to establish a stronghold here.”

“Due to the fierce battle between the destruction faction and our world, our world was destroyed, and ultimately we couldn’t attend to this place.”

Xu Xingke continued.

Shen Ye sighed with emotion:

“I can’t believe I’ve come here myself now.”

Suddenly.

The “rustling” sound from afar stopped.

A humanoid shadow flew over, drew a long saber, and slashed at Shen Ye.

Shen Ye stood still.

Clang—

A saber’s cry.

The humanoid shadow was cut into seven or eight pieces by the blurry saber light, falling to the ground.

“It’s a Shadow Guard—”

“It’s one of the defense spells cast by the monsters. It can create a corresponding guard based on your profession and send it to kill you.”

Xu Xingke explained.

“I killed it,” Shen Ye said.

“So the monsters are coming soon.”

Xu Xingke said.

Shen Ye glanced at the pale torch in his hand.

—The light from this torch was not enough to illuminate far, only to clearly see nearby objects.

If the enemy launched a long-range attack—

With the “Dark Realm’s Deep Sealing World Technique” obscuring everything, he would be very passive.

“What kind of monsters are they?” Shen Ye asked.

“The master of the Shadow Guard is a minion. Kill that minion, and you must immediately get out of this area to avoid being surrounded,” Xu Xingke said.

Surrounded.

That’s right.

The Pale World had completely fallen to the monsters.

If he, alone, was surrounded, wouldn’t it be a dead end?

“—Teleport me over to help, Shen Ye.”

Xu Xingke’s voice rang out again.

Shen Ye snapped back to reality.

“No, Teacher, wait a moment, the light from this torch isn’t bright enough—I’ll think of something first.”

He stuck the pale torch into the ground.

Are you kidding me!

He needed his teacher’s help to deal with minions?

Wouldn’t that be a waste of his efforts?

Shen Ye’s mind stirred, and he immediately activated the Myriad Worlds entry “Escapist,” establishing a watchtower on the torch to observe his surroundings.

Having done this, he stepped back a few paces and pressed against the wall.

“Door.”

The Door of Communication quietly appeared.

A line of glowing texts also appeared:

“The current Pale World and Nightmare World are ‘contiguous’.”

“You are the Gatekeeper of the World of Truth.”

“Therefore, you can return to the Nightmare World through the door.”

Shen Ye pushed open the door and entered.

He returned to the Nightmare World, found a wall in a human park, opened a door, and walked out.

Waiting—

Shen Ye leaned against the wall, quietly waiting for the monsters of the Pale World.

One breath.

Two breaths.

Three breaths.

Suddenly—

The watchtower on the torch detected some movement.

A few more breaths passed.

A six-legged humanoid monster with black muscles all over its body crawled over.

It stopped by the torch, looking around in confusion.

It was now!

Shen Ye directly opened the door and looked at the monster.

The monster immediately turned its head and met his gaze.

“Oh my god!”

Shen Ye cried out in panic, closed the door, and then immediately peeled and ate a banana.

The monster, without hesitation, rushed straight over and broke through the door—

Thump.

It landed on Earth.

“Get it.”

Shen Ye said, eating a banana.

Seventh Uncle descended from his Dharma form, grabbed the monster’s head, and, ignoring its frantic struggles, chanted a spell—

The monster let out a tragic cry, its flesh and bones flying onto a flickering altar, all sacrificed.

—Only a piece of meat remained.

“Not so great, huh?”

Seventh Uncle handed the piece of meat to Shen Ye.

“This thing is just a minion; its disappearance will attract more monsters,” Shen Ye said.

“I see—but why are you eating a banana?” Seventh Uncle asked.

“I haven’t eaten in a long time, I almost fainted from hunger.”

“Health is no joke; next time I’ll make sure you eat breakfast.”

“Thank you, Seventh Uncle.”

Shen Ye threw the banana peel into the trash and once again pushed open the door, arriving in the Pale World.

—Fortunately, he was the gatekeeper.

And he had a Myriad Worlds entry like “Escapist.”

Teleportation was not this convenient.

Nor could it kill monsters.

Shen Ye grabbed the pale torch and immediately ran out of the ruins.

But as he passed the human skeleton, a thought suddenly flashed through his mind.

“Teacher!”

Shen Ye suddenly stopped, took out a tarot card, and called out.

“I’m here—how are things on your end?” Xu Xingke’s concerned voice came from the tarot card.

“The minions are killed, I’m ready to run.”

“Run quickly, don’t get surrounded by a swarm of minions, that would be troublesome.”

“But, Teacher, I have a human skeleton here—is he one of us?” Shen Ye asked.

Xu Xingke’s voice carried a hint of regret:

“At that time, I had to stay in the Eternal World and fight the destruction faction.”

“And many powerful cards from the ‘Eternal Mission’ deck were fully committed to developing the Pale World.”

“Under such circumstances, with enemies on two fronts, humanity failed, and the Mission Deck eventually lost most of its members in that world.”

“The skeleton you see might be one of the cards from the Mission Deck.”

I see.

But—

“What is the Mission Deck?” Shen Ye asked.

“It’s a collection of laws that materialized to help the species ‘humanity’ fulfill its mission after its birth. They guide us to achieve the ‘Eternal Mission’,” Xu Xingke said.

That sounds quite important.

“Should I take the skeleton back?” Shen Ye asked.

“It’s no use, too much time has passed, and the card should be completely destroyed by now,” Xu Xingke sighed.

Shen Ye hesitated, but eventually let out a helpless sigh.

His resurrection spell could only save himself.

Failun, on the other hand, could perform a necromantic resurrection spell, but any resurrected beings would be under its control.

This card, however, was humanity’s mission.

“It conflicts with my spell, can’t save it.”

Failun whispered quietly.

Too bad.

Shen Ye placed a piece of the monster’s flesh in his Dharma form for Failun to eat, then turned and left the ruins.

Now he had to leave here.

Quickly!

Holding the torch, he sped through the maze-like passages.

At some point.

The duck sent a thought:

“The Dream World has put a bounty on the primordial spirit of destruction, Baxter.”

“The bounty is very high.”

“Be careful.”

Shen Ye shook his head and continued to run forward.

In fact.

He had the chance to stay completely low-key.

If Kaelon hadn’t resurrected him in the Dream World, he would have been hiding in the Nightmare World, and wouldn’t have been wanted—

Wait!

Resurrection!!!

Shen Ye suddenly stopped, taking out a bone ring.

Rebel’s Grip of Heresy!

This ring had its own consciousness, so he should be able to communicate directly with it.

“Kaelon has too many things, but now there’s an extremely important situation, and I need your help.”

Shen Ye quickly said:

“Can you help me find out if Kaelon left behind any cultivation methods for the ‘Calamity Resurrection’ spell?”

Silence for a breath.

A slight fluctuation emanated from the ring.

A piece of parchment quietly appeared before Shen Ye.

“Calamity Resurrection Spell.”

That’s right!

This was the spell!

Shen Ye turned around and ran back towards the ruins.

Quickly.

Before the monsters arrived, he had to take that skeleton away!

He accelerated with all his might, suddenly opened a door, traversed a long distance, and landed directly in the ruins.

Outside the ruins.

Rustling sounds came.

“I’ll distract them!”

Failun shrieked, jumping out of the Dharma form.

“Wait—how will you escape later?” Shen Ye quickly asked.

“I’ll die and come back!”

The large skeleton suddenly transformed into the black monster, and then rushed out of the ruins.

It jumped and shrieked as it ran.

Those sounds immediately followed.

—Good buddy!

I’ll definitely treat you to a massage later!

Shen Ye inwardly praised, then strode over to the human skeleton and gathered it with a hand.

In an instant.

The skeleton was collected into his storage ring.

Immediately afterwards, lines of micro-light characters quietly appeared:

“A new destiny has been added to you.”

“As the Eternal Brain, you possess the potential to reactivate ‘Mission’!”

“Please find a way to resurrect this ‘Mission’ card to awaken the long-slumbering mission of the new species (humanity):”

“Eternal Poem.”

“—The fate of the human race has taken an unprecedented turn.”

Shen Ye’s heart skipped a beat.

Yes!

Humans had four missions!

In Kaelon’s eyes, the Eternal World had been destroyed, and the Eternal Mission had failed!

But—

He was still alive.

He was the new Eternal Brain, and a survivor of the Eternal World.

If he could resurrect the Mission card—

Then humanity’s mission would not end!
