Gatekeeper of Myriad Worlds Chapter 256

The so-called “Soul of Life” can create myriad souls and hold thousands of professions.

The so-called “Non-Life”——

Shen Ye softly uttered, “Guanghan.”

An icy mirror appeared before him.

Facing the mirror, he formed a magical seal with both hands, performing “Self in the Mirror.”

His reflection subtly emerged in the icy mirror.

“Your mental power has consumed 5 points, current mental power is 0.”

Shen Ye looked around.

Behind him was the real world outside the mirror.

He stood in the mirror world, then conjured another mirror, and performed “Self in the Mirror.”

So——

With a flicker, he entered the icy mirror.

——This is a mirror within a mirror!

Then the reversed body in this mirror is also the reversed body of a reversed body.

Two negatives make a positive.

This is a complete body with full attributes.

All its skills are identical to his original body, without any difference! A line of faint characters appeared again:

“You cannot have two bodies simultaneously exist within the mirror; one body must be placed in the outside world.”

The body with 0 mental power was placed by Shen Ye in the mirror world outside.

He used this body with full attributes to continue practicing “Self in the Mirror” within the mirror-within-mirror world.

Once.

Twice.

Thrice.

He only had enough mental power for one more release!

Shen Ye unleashed the essence of Guanghan, condensing it into an icy mirror.

The fourth “Self in the Mirror”!

His reversed body appeared in the icy mirror.

——A fully attributed reversed body!

He pressed his hand on the mirror’s surface and plunged in.

A line of faint characters appeared again:

“You cannot have two bodies simultaneously exist within the mirror; one body must be placed in the outside world.”

The drained body was released directly.

He was now in the world within the mirror within the mirror within the mirror!!!

——He continued practicing “Self in the Mirror” with the new body that had full mental power.

Practice.

Practice, practice, practice——

Mad practice, without worrying about mental power consumption.

As soon as mental power was depleted, he immediately entered a new mirror, changed bodies, and continued practicing.

Practicing relentlessly, forgetting to eat and sleep.

Practicing without pause.

Mad practice!

Finally——

Three hours and twenty-nine minutes.

Shen Ye formed hand seals and performed the spell. Suddenly, he noticed an unusual fluctuation the moment the spell was completed.

The spell…

was changing.

Faint light quietly emerged, appearing as lines of small text:

“Through a large amount of frantic practice, your skill ‘Self in the Mirror’ has advanced to the first tier of the Law Realm.”

“First Tier of the Law Realm: Self in the Mirror.”

“Description: You and all things are reversed, and your fundamental ability ‘Door’ has undergone more changes after reversal.”

“Special inherent power: You can exist in all mirrors.”

“Added special ability: Within one second after completing a body swap, you are in an invulnerable state.”

——Nothing else changed, but 1 second of invulnerability was added!

In layman’s terms, this was “invincibility.”

Although it was only one second, a lot could happen in one second.

And there was the “Door” ability after reversal.

This was quite good!!!

Shen Ye gently closed his eyes, allowing his emotions to gradually calm.

Next.

The most important moment was approaching!

Shen Ye waited a few more minutes, then leaped into the icy mirror to switch bodies.

——This time, the new reversed body was generated using the first-tier “Self in the Mirror” from the Law Realm.

It could now withstand the Imperial Blood Bead!

Shen Ye wiped his ring and took out the golden blood bead.

But the golden blood bead was different from before——

Its radiance had dimmed considerably.

It no longer possessed that vibrant power; instead, looking at it made one feel it had become murky and ethereal.

Could it be that the “End of Destiny: Banner of the Nest” technique had used up most of its power, causing it to nearly disappear?

No!

Hurry up!

Shen Ye tilted his head back, opened his mouth, and swallowed the blood bead.

A familiar sensation surged through him.

His body swelled with power, and the emanating fluctuations condensed into a wind out of thin air.

All attributes soared madly.

In just a few seconds, all his attributes exceeded 200 points and were still rising!

Taking advantage of this moment——

“Take up the profession of ‘Dark Devourer’.”

Shen Ye spoke.

Lines of faint characters emerged in the void, appearing frantically before his eyes:

“Current overall attributes have met the minimum requirements for the profession.”

“Confirming with the origin of the Law Realm.”

“Please wait.”

Logically, the Law Realm is the source of power for all rules in the vast universe.

——It should be confirmed very quickly!

The next moment.

The continuously surging aura around Shen Ye disappeared.

He was stunned for a moment, and with his current high comprehension of over 700 points, he immediately understood what had happened.

——The power of that drop of blood had been completely used up.

Throughout its long existence, it had been used for various tests, swallowed, and forcefully activated.

Until today, when he used it to perform that spell.

Finally——

Its power was exhausted!

Shen Ye’s eyes displayed the five major attributes: “strength, agility, mental power, comprehension, and resonance.”

Each attribute was rapidly declining.

“Damn it, hurry… hurry up and succeed in the profession!”

Shen Ye muttered.

Silence in the mirror, everything serene and quiet.

But Shen Ye felt that time was passing incredibly slowly.

If all his attributes dropped below 200 points before the Law Realm’s confirmation ended——

He would lose his qualification.

Everything he had just done would be in vain!

Shen Ye watched as the five attributes continued to plummet.

——It had already dropped to 400 points!

Still falling!

“Strange… why is the Law Realm’s confirmation so slow? Is the internet speed bad?”

A thought flashed through his mind, and he suddenly rushed out towards the mirror.

Perhaps he had too many layers of mirrors, affecting the Law Realm’s “internet speed”!

This idea was a bit far-fetched.

But Shen Ye couldn’t think of a better explanation.

Swoosh!

Shen Ye leaped out of one icy mirror, then entered the next icy mirror.

Swoosh swoosh swoosh swoosh swoosh——

He continuously leaped back, passing through hundreds of mirrors, heading towards the real world.

All attribute points fell to 300!

Crash!

The sound of shattering ice echoed.

Shen Ye landed on solid ground.

This was the secret passage.

The Big Skeleton had cast silent and concealing necromancy spells, sealing the entire passage, and was now squatting nervously beside it.

He was back!

He had returned to the real world!

Correspondingly, the body that had remained in the real world immediately disappeared, receding into the mirror world.

Shen Ye stood in the secret passage, looking blankly at the void——

Faint light materialized into continuously rolling small characters:

“The Emperor Species’ blood bead has integrated into your blood, and all its special powers have been completely consumed.”

“All your attribute points are continuing to fall back.”

“All attributes 230;”

“All attributes 220;”

——It’s too late!

“Distribute evenly, invest all.”

Shen Ye whispered.

In a flash of lightning——

He evenly distributed his 24.1 free attribute points into the five attributes.

This was a last resort!

The five attributes paused for an instant, then began to drop again.

“All attributes 210;”

“All attributes 200;”

“Profession successful.”

“All attributes 190;”

“All attributes 180;”

“…”

Shen Ye’s legs went weak——

Although his attributes were still over 100 points at this moment, his legs just went weak, and he slumped to the ground.

“What’s wrong?”

The Big Skeleton couldn’t help but ask.

Shen Ye waved his hand, unable to speak, and just leaned against the cold wall, not wanting to move.

It really was just a matter of that one instant.

Fortunately, he made it.

After a few more breaths.

All attribute points returned to 20, and then stopped.

These were Shen Ye’s normal attribute points.

“Hey, are you alright?” The Big Skeleton came running, squatting in front of him, asking with concern.

“I’m fine, just let me rest.”

“Okay.”

The Big Skeleton ran off again, guarding the entrance to the secret passage.

Shen Ye rested for a while.

A strange power was being born from within his body.

The void also sent out corresponding faint glowing text reminders:

“Congratulations.”

“You have embraced the ‘Dark Devourer’ profession.”

“Roaming Cosmic Profession, Special Race (Emperor Race) Profession.”

“This profession grants the Emperor Race Law Aspect: End of Destiny.”

“You have gained the professional skill of ‘Dark Devourer’:”

“Banner of the Nest.”

All the small characters flashed and then changed again.

“Your various attributes are too low.”

“Currently, you cannot activate the Emperor Race Law Aspect, nor can you use the inherent professional skills.”

——This was normal.

To cast such a Law Aspect and spell, it probably required at least 200 points in all attributes.

So there was nothing to be surprised about.

However, having acquired this profession, he could truly look forward to it when he eventually reached the corresponding attribute points.

“Let’s go, the matter is settled.”

Shen Ye said.

“Going back?” asked the Big Skeleton.

“Back.”

The door opened.

They returned to the mausoleum.

Underground passage.

Lilith showed no response.

The surroundings were dark and silent.

——Should he continue to explore deeper into the mausoleum?

No, there was still one thing he hadn’t figured out.

Shen Ye now urgently wanted to try to understand what was the “unknown door” that had reversed through the professional skill “Self in the Mirror.”

It seemed that the “unknown door” did not possess any world-linking power?

“Door!”

He whispered.

The ground vibrated slightly.

Soon, a white door rose from the ground and appeared before Shen Ye.

What was its purpose?

Last time.

When the Door of Two Realms awakened, that voice explained it to him.

Now that voice was in slumber.

He had to rely on himself!

Shen Ye placed his hand on the white door and pushed hard.

The door opened immediately.
