Gatekeeper of Myriad Worlds Chapter 190

The brothers worked so hard, they were thinking about this!

“Take as many as you want, I’ll buy you more when we get back!” Shen Ye waved his hand—

And crayfish appeared!

They were all eaten!

“…It’s delicious, but it doesn’t contain the bloodline of a dragon,” Big Skeleton said disappointedly.

“Don’t worry, maybe these are hybrids. Next time, I’ll take you to buy purebred ones!” Shen Ye said.

—Let’s buy some king crabs for my brother to eat!

The crayfish was just a joke before!

“You’re a good brother,” Big Skeleton gave a thumbs up.

“Of course!”

Big Skeleton gathered his spirits, got up, and began to draw the rune array again.

—The rune array to hell!

This time.

As soon as he drew a few runes, the atmosphere in the cave suddenly changed.

A scorching wind surged from the underground, swirling back and forth in the cave, like a thousand whispers.

“It’s so hot, don’t let this bear die of heat.”

Shen Ye said, wiping his sweat.

“The first level of hell is the Wind and Fire Hell, so you naturally feel hot, but it’s okay, this power only targets souls entering hell,” Big Skeleton explained.

Shen Ye felt something, and suddenly pulled out the Nightfall Dagger from his waist.

—This black dagger was constantly vibrating!

What’s going on?!

“Be careful, I’ve opened a tiny crack leading to hell, and it will quickly expand, forming a temporary通道.”

“The other side is the high sky of hell!”

Big Skeleton shouted.

In the void, a powerful roar of wind suddenly appeared.

A space hole more than two meters high appeared!

Shen Ye looked into the hole against the strong wind, only to see endless firelight inside, moving with the wind in the sky.

A line of faint words appeared in the firelight:

“Wind and Fire Hell, the first layer of hell.”

It worked!

The other side is hell!

Big Skeleton let out a joyful shriek, and Shen Ye also looked happy.

A sudden change occurred—

A shadow flew out of the void and rushed straight towards Shen Ye.

Shen Ye raised his sword without hesitation to block it.

With a resounding “clang,” the shadow collided with the Nightfall Dagger and scattered into countless snowflakes.

Shen Ye’s eyes were quick, and he instantly saw what it was.

Ice!

A mass of ice flew out of the Wind and Fire Hell?

He was still in shock, but then saw all the scattered ice and snow return and land on the Nightfall Dagger, completely covering the blade of the dagger.

“Hey, what’s going on?”

Shen Ye turned his head and shouted.

Big Skeleton said with a bewildered look, “I don’t know either. I opened a deep part of the sky of the Wind and Fire Hell, which is suitable for concealing our tracks!”

Before he finished speaking.

A faint light jumped out from the Nightfall Dagger and appeared as words in mid-air:

“A certain power hidden deep in the sky of the Wind and Fire Hell sensed ‘Nightfall’. It instantly materialized as ice and snow, integrating into the dagger, elevating the dagger by one level.”

“This sword has completed its upgrade and transformed into a brand new Hun Tian sword:”

“Night隐.”

“Hun Tian Gate sword weapon.”

“Dark blue level (super excellent).”

“Attribute: Sharpness (advanced).”

“Attribute: Penetration (advanced).”

“Attribute: Hemorrhage (advanced).”

“Finger Shadow: The holder of this sword automatically gains one rank in ‘Sky Shadow’.”

“White Moon: The holder of this sword can sense the location of Hun Tian Gate items through this sword.”

“—This power has been dormant in the high sky of the Wind and Fire Hell for countless years, finally returning to a sect-exclusive sword weapon!”

The dagger—

Seemed to have grown a little longer.

The dull black of the blade faded, replaced by a frosted white.

Shen Ye quietly held the dagger, his mind stirring, and he unleashed “Sky Shadow.”

“Huh? Where are you?”

Big Skeleton cried out.

“Can’t you see me?” Shen Ye asked.

“I really can’t see you—damn it, what move did you use?” Big Skeleton asked.

Shen Ye looked at the faint words in the void:

“Current ‘Sky Shadow’ has advanced to the first realm of 法界 with the sword’s enhancement.”

“Description:”

“You are like a shadow, unnoticed by anyone, unless the opponent’s strength reaches the fourth realm of 法界, then they might be able to see through your concealment.”

Both “White Moon” and “Finger Shadow” were very useful skills.

A flash of lightning suddenly crossed Shen Ye’s mind.

The sword—

It was given to him by that voice.

“Explore the secrets of this world—your friends will help you, but first, you must help them.”

That voice said to him before falling into slumber.

The premise is that I must first help my friends—

He helped Big Skeleton gather all the materials.

Big Skeleton finally opened the passage to hell!

As soon as the Wind and Fire Hell opened, the Nightfall Sword gained that hidden power.

It was as if Big Skeleton had, in turn, helped him.

—So this is the true meaning of “your friends will help you”?

That’s too obscure!

Why didn’t they just say it clearly?

Shen Ye’s mind turned, and he slowly understood.

The words spoken by Mictetikasiwa, Lord of the Underworld, reappeared in his mind:

“You must uncover the truth… So come to hell… Only in hell, when you know the truth, will you be safe.”

Perhaps—

In the nightmare world, some things cannot be stated explicitly?

In other words, the nightmare world is under some kind of surveillance?

Big Skeleton suddenly let out a bizarre cry.

Shen Ye also felt a chill in his heart, and his muscles tensed up.

A giant claw suddenly pierced through the void, reaching out from hell, and grabbed at the two of them.

What a quick move!

Unavoidable!

Shen Ye subconsciously moved to activate his “Gate” ability, but changed his mind at the last second.

—The giant claw was too big, and placing the gate in front might not block it; if placed behind, the claw had already reached behind him, making a digging motion.

He might not have enough time to get into the gate!

Then—

He held the sword with both hands, and several flowing afterimages flashed across his body.

—Movement Technique • Flowing Moon!

The giant claw brushed past his true body’s clothes, snatched Big Skeleton, and retracted into the passage.

As Big Skeleton left, the spell immediately began to dissipate.

The spatial void shrank rapidly at a visible speed, about to become impassable—

“Let it go!”

Shen Ye roared, his figure flashing, and he rushed through the spatial void.

High altitude!

This was the ten-thousand-meter high altitude of the Wind and Fire Hell!

Firelight shone as bright as day.

A skeletal giant eagle, dozens of meters long, spread its wings and soared in the sky.

It clutched Big Skeleton tightly in its talons.

Shen Ye drew his bone bow with a backhand motion, and the Twin Dragon Dharma Aspect opened behind him, emptying the quiver in an instant.

Night Wanderer Archery • Downpour!

—”Splendid Opening” diva skill activated!

All the arrows immediately aligned and combined in mid-air, forming a giant arrow that slammed fiercely into the skeletal giant eagle’s talons.

Whoosh—

Shattered bones flew through the air.

The skeletal giant eagle had one of its bone talons broken, and Big Skeleton immediately fell downwards.

The giant eagle let out a startled cry.

The next moment.

Seven or eight sharp claws flew from all directions and all pierced its body.

This was followed by sharp beaks.

—The giant eagle was dismembered!

At this moment, Shen Ye suddenly let out a roar:

“Who dares to fight!”

Electric light blazed from his hands, the Dharma Aspect behind him became clearer, and even his icy pupils slowly opened.

With the power of thunder and lightning to repel evil, the surrounding monsters immediately scattered.

Shen Ye cautiously observed his surroundings.

—He couldn’t afford not to be vigilant.

The entire sky was filled with skeletal birds fighting each other.

Looking past the dense flying undead, towards the vast and boundless land—

Heads surged, a dense black mass, stretching as far as the eye could see.

Everywhere he looked was filled with undead!

In some places, there wasn’t even space to step foot!

What was going on?

How could hell be so crowded?

Shen Ye pondered for a second, then suddenly spun and delivered a flying kick, sending a skeletal bird that was charging at him flying.

—Frost Bite!

The bird, hit by the kick, was covered in ice, and its movements became incredibly slow.

Many birds rushed up and devoured it.

“Felon!”

Shen Ye shouted, and rushed towards Big Skeleton’s falling direction.

Big Skeleton was also clever.

—The sky was, after all, the domain of birds, so it didn’t tangle too much. It simply took out a set of armor, put it on, then curled into a ball, protecting its vital points with its hands, and continuously plummeted downwards.

Along the way, birds came to peck at it, but they couldn’t do anything to it.

Shen Ye moved continuously in mid-air, performing several “Flowing Moon” movements, confusing the surrounding birds, and finally managed to get close to Big Skeleton.

“Hide,” he shouted.

“Okay!”

Big Skeleton immediately hid inside the ring.

Only Shen Ye remained.

He pressed his hand into the air, activating “Star Shift.”

The faint light gradually gathered, forming small words:

“You can set two new coordinate points. Do you want to set one now?”

“Set it!” Shen Ye shouted in his mind.

“—Setting successful.”

Looking at this line of small words, Shen Ye finally felt relieved.

The spatial void to hell required very expensive materials.

It cost a lot of money.

If he didn’t set a teleportation coordinate immediately, each subsequent time he opened it, it would cost a lot of materials, meaning a lot of money.

Waste was shameful.

As for now—

Let’s land first!

He wielded the Thunder Shock Palm, blasting several charging skeletal birds into bone dust.

The next second.

All the skeletal birds scattered in a panic, clearing a large space.

What happened?

Shen Ye looked up and saw a fiery monster flying from deep in the sky.

It had three human heads and three legs, covered from head to tail with grotesque bone spurs. Its wings spanned tens of meters, and its entire body was covered in flames.

“It’s Qu Ru! Run!!”

Big Skeleton cried out in alarm.

Shen Ye’s eyes narrowed.

First Jiu Ying, then Qu Ru.

These were all monsters from the Classic of Mountains and Seas, why were they appearing in hell?

“You know it?”

Shen Ye couldn’t help but ask.

“Nonsense, the undead race knows something about hell—it’s very fierce, hurry and run!” Big Skeleton said.

Shen Ye looked at the Qu Ru again.

Its body was as majestic as a mountain, yet agile and nimble, gliding across the sky with elegant and swift movements, burning everything in its path, including all skeletal birds.

This created a spectacular sight—

As all skeletal birds died, they turned into faint points of light that flew towards Qu Ru.

And Qu Ru had killed so many skeletal birds that along its path, there were countless dense points of light, like a river of stars, tightly following it.

—It looked like a god, incredibly shocking.

“So strong…”

Shen Ye muttered, and immediately accelerated his descent.
