Gatekeeper of Myriad Worlds Chapter 262

In the blood-soaked battlefield, Shen Ye suddenly felt something and looked at his arm.

He saw the iron chain wrapped around his arm quickly loosen, falling to the ground with a clang.

The contract…

Did it break?

The next second.

The three-meter-tall black woman appeared again.

She left with Lilith, but when she reappeared, her hands were empty.

“Child, what’s your name?”

“Ye,” Shen Ye said.

“Ye, I understand you now. You can summon such a spirit. Your talent is extraordinary, and I must protect you.”

Fourteen hands extended from her black body, quickly forming seven seals, then she looked at Shen Ye.

“The problem is serious.”

“The spirit has completely revealed its true form, exceeding my expectations, but fortunately we have this spell.”

“This is…” Shen Ye looked at her continuous seven seals.

These are seven spells!

Is it possible to cast seven spells simultaneously in this world?

As if knowing his confusion, the woman quickly said:

“The first four spells are the Four Sages Liberation Incantation of Earth, Water, Fire, and Wind. The fifth spell is the Self-Certification Spell for Inside and Out. The sixth spell is the Advent Secret Seal, and the seventh spell is the Shadow Tracking Spell.”

“We use the seventh spell to observe where she escaped and can immediately teleport there.”

“As for the first six spells—”

“Once the six spells are complete, the slumbering monarch will send out a wisp of thought from his dream, descending here to guide his protectors and crush those with malicious intentions.”

“—Even if they are the embodiment of the world’s will.”

“Don’t think about anything—”

“The dream has come!”

In the void, there seemed to be a slight movement of air.

On the silent, bloody ground, fragmented insect corpses disappeared into the earth.

Swish, swish, swish, swish, swish!

Countless tentacles emerged from the flesh and blood, silently piercing into Shen Ye’s back, lifting him into mid-air.

Power!

Infinite cosmic power poured into his body!

A faint glow appeared as small text:

“You have received the secret bloodline activation technique of the Emperor Seed.”

“Since you have already received the Emperor Seed blood, and all power has been stripped, the bloodlines have fused, and this time the body has undergone further adaptation.”

“Your current body can be called an Emperor Seed幼体 (larva).”

Boom—

The void cracked.

A ball of light flashed in mid-air, revealing Lilith’s figure.

Shadow Tracking Spell!

No matter where Lilith fled, her figure would appear here.

She was flying rapidly through the underground passage.

Ahead—

The crisscrossing tunnels brought a sense of familiarity.

Ahead was the island in the middle of the lake!

A scene suddenly flashed through Shen Ye’s mind.

When Lilith cast her spell earlier, one of her hands had three broken fingers.

Could it be—

Xiao Mengyu!

“Faster, I must kill it, please faster!”

He said to the three-meter-tall woman.

Before he finished speaking.

All the tentacles glowed in unison, like blazing wings of light unfurling behind him.

Shen Ye looked at the flickering scene in mid-air.

Lilith had already rushed out of the tunnel and landed on the underground lake.

Faster.

No more delays!

Along with this thought, all images suddenly vanished from his sight.

Darkness.

Endless cosmic darkness enveloped Shen Ye.

That giant Emperor Seed worm was coiled on a planet.

Its body was no smaller than the planet, inspiring awe and fear.

The giant worm slowly moved its head, gazing at Shen Ye.

“Come.”

A consciousness emerged in Shen Ye’s mind.

His body lost control and quickly flew towards the cosmic giant worm.

In an instant.

He was already in front of the giant worm.

The massive cosmic giant worm slowly opened its mouth and swallowed him.

Inside the cosmic giant worm’s body, boundless darkness arose, and then a piece of faint text quietly appeared:

“You have been acknowledged.”

“You are about to acquire the Swarm trait.”

“A corresponding evaluation of the Dharma Realm will be generated based on the battle results.”

“Begin!”

A strange sensation suddenly arose in Shen Ye’s heart.

From all directions.

It was as if an endless tide surged in, completely engulfing him.

In a blur—

A magnificent palace entirely constructed of stars emerged in his consciousness.

Deep within this palace, a human-shaped figure floated.

He seemed to be in a deep slumber.

Yet, a grand voice emanated from him:

“It’s rare for food to come to my door on its own. I’ll borrow your body for a while…”

“Don’t worry, I always reward and punish fairly.”

…

Meanwhile.

The island in the middle of the lake was gone.

All the students were hiding on a sloping rock wall.

Nangong Sirui was bandaging his wounds.

Xiao Mengyu stood guard with her sword.

As soon as Lilith arrived, she immediately looked at the students.

She burst out laughing:

“If I kill all of you, he’ll probably be sad.”

“It’ll fulfill the promise I made to it—and you, little girl, you severed my fingers. Now, I’ll make you pay a hundredfold.”

“Just one move is all it takes!”

She raised her hand, forming a seal with her fingers.

A flash.

A sharp light wheel, dozens of feet long, appeared before Xiao Mengyu’s eyes.

The speed of this light wheel was extreme—

She didn’t even have time to react and was about to be cut in half at the waist!

Nangong Sirui wanted to do something, but found himself immobilized by a spell, unable to move an inch.

The moment of death.

—A hand reached out from the void and grabbed the sharp light wheel.

The hand gently squeezed.

Snap.

The dozens of feet long sharp light wheel shattered inch by inch, extinguished in the darkness.

Lilith reacted quickly, pulling back to escape.

But as soon as she flew out, she was caught by that figure and punched into the ground.

The entire underground waterway rumbled.

The ground shook uncontrollably.

It seemed as if the entire tomb was about to collapse with this one punch.

“Shen Ye!”

Guo Yunye cried out in alarm.

Everyone looked intently and saw that the figure was indeed Shen Ye.

However, he looked somewhat different than usual.

Behind him, eight long, scorpion-like tails were scattered, with sharp poisonous stingers at their ends.

His body was covered in a layer of insect scales, etched with naturally occurring cosmic energy runes.

However.

His face was filled with boredom, as if he wasn’t interested in the current situation.

A wave of doubt arose in everyone’s hearts.

—Is this really Shen Ye?

He stared at the collapsed cave below and spoke:

“Stop hiding. The space is already confined. You can’t escape.”

After a breath.

Another figure shot up into the air.

Lilith!

At this time, she was different again.

Slender, glowing tattoos appeared all over her body, and behind her were five slowly rotating, dense runic wheels.

“Heh, Shen Ye, I really underestimated you.”

Lilith spoke.

She continuously formed seals with her hands, preparing for battle.

“I originally wanted to play with you slowly, because my plan is too grand. I just need to keep reviving to reach the end.”

Lilith said.

She continued, uncontrollably: “The Chaos Spirit Light is very powerful, and I don’t want to anger it. And there are other dangerous entities lurking in your world, so what should I do?”

“It’s better to stay by your side, enter this tomb, and investigate slowly.”

Speaking of which—

Her expression struggled for a moment, then she suddenly let out a sharp cry.

In the surrounding void, dense insect chirps dissipated.

Some unknown spell had been broken!

“You’re not Shen Ye, who exactly are you!”

Lilith asked, her eyes showing a trace of fear, panting.

Shen Ye grinned and asked:

“Who are you?”

“Let me reintroduce myself. I am the strongest being in the ‘Demonic Prison’ world, and also the embodiment of the ‘Demonic Prison’s’ world will,” Lilith said.

She casually flicked her fingers.

Dense blood-red rays shot through space, cutting through all the flesh and blood ground along the way, and slashed at Shen Ye.

Shen Ye remained motionless.

One of his hands was in his pocket, the other was raised, blocking all attacks.

“I’m very easy to talk to in dreams. How do you want to die?”

He asked.

Lilith’s expression became even more serious.

The other party had blocked her attacks with one hand, without even a scratch.

“Death is of no use to me. I possess the endless original art of resurrection.”

Lilith finished speaking involuntarily, then suddenly her expression turned annoyed.

She suddenly cast a spell towards the void above.

Weeping Spirit King · Illusion Breaking Divine Seal!

This spell, like flowing water, swept through the entire void and even the underground passage, causing the void to echo like a surging tide.

Shen Ye, who had been listless, finally brightened his eyes when he saw this move.

“Oh? You broke my mimicry…”

“I didn’t expect you to have such power. It seems you still have some nutritional value.”

He re-examined Lilith.

Lilith snorted, her fighting spirit soaring:

“I’m not an idiot. Since just now, endless illusions have been attacking me, but now, this spell is no longer—”

Her voice suddenly cut off.

The surrounding rock walls, tunnels, and rivers were covered with an endless swarm of insects!

These insects were bizarre and varied; some were desiccated, some were merely empty shells, but some were still alive!

Insect carcasses were everywhere above, below, and all around.

They were constantly chirping, their calls forming various irresistible spells.

—The other party had already set up an inescapable trap!

Due to the existence of “mimicry,” no one had noticed.

“Who… exactly are you?”

Lilith asked in a trembling voice.

She understood.

She refused to acknowledge it.

Shen Ye suddenly appeared in front of her and threw a punch.

Lilith was sent flying.

But as soon as she flew a few meters, she was caught up by the other party, who grabbed her by the neck.

Lilith immediately retaliated with an elbow strike.

Thud.

Her elbow was blocked by Shen Ye’s other hand.

“Are you trying to resist your fate with such a dangerous move?” Shen Ye said calmly.

Lilith kicked with all her might.

Shen Ye swiftly retracted one hand, clenched it into a fist, and met her kick.

Thump.

Blood splattered.

Just one punch.

Lilith’s knee bent at a comically exaggerated angle both above and below.

“Fragile… but nutritious.”

Shen Ye commented lazily.

Lilith seemed to realize something, her pupils constricted, and she shrieked in horror:

“You are—”

A slap struck, breaking her neck instantly and twisting her face to the back.

“Be quiet, I’m still asleep,” Shen Ye said.

The students in the distance were all dumbfounded.

“It’s Shen Ye, he’s amazing!” Guo Yunye said with certainty.

The others, however, shook their heads in unison.

Lilith raised her trembling hands, still trying to form seals, but a blur of motion instantly severed them.

Among the eight long tails behind Shen Ye, one tail, made entirely of bone blades, swung back and forth, its sharp tip impaling a pair of hands that were about to form a seal.

Blood.

Gushing, splattering, showering.

Lilith let out a high-pitched scream.

Shen Ye’s emotionless voice sounded, overpowering her screams:

“Enough.”

“—To use spells and manifestations for this level of combat is an insult to me.”

He grabbed Lilith’s head and, with a flicker, vanished from the sight of the crowd.
