Gatekeeper of Myriad Worlds Chapter 286

Outside, the sky was azure.

Shen Ye stood on the spacecraft, overlooking the sea of clouds below, his face still etched with indignation.

Song Yinchen secretly watched him from the side.

This guy, upon hearing the title “Heavenly King,” immediately puffed out his chest, but after being told his strength was insufficient, he adopted an aloof demeanor and even offered to return his badge.

“You didn’t take it to heart, did you?” Song Yinchen asked.

“No, I’m fine, how could I be? Anyway, they shouldn’t expect me to fight in the future,” Shen Ye said with a cold laugh, arms crossed.

Song Yinchen waited for a few more breaths.

Hmm.

He only made a declaration of not fighting.

But ever since he heard there were a billion world coins to be had, he immediately put the Heavenly King badge away and stopped mentioning returning it.

So amusing.

Song Yinchen suppressed a laugh and said seriously:

“I knew Brother Shen Ye wouldn’t care what others say—alright, your master is here, he seems to have something to tell you. I’ll take my leave first, keep in touch.”

She turned around, bowed respectfully to Xu Xingke, greeted him as “Teacher,” and then departed.

“You’re already a Heavenly King, are you still going back to school?” Xu Xingke asked.

“Yes, I am. My knowledge isn’t enough, and my power comes from the worms, so what kind of Heavenly King am I? Why wouldn’t I go back and just stay here?” Shen Ye said sourly.

“Heh, then go back,” Xu Xingke chuckled.

“The school’s gone,” Shen Ye摊 said, spreading his hands.

“It’s being rebuilt. They’re moving a few buildings there, and classes will resume tomorrow.”

Xu Xingke winked at him.

“?” Shen Ye.

Xu Xingke began, “The worm won’t break free from the seal, will it?”

“No,” Shen Ye said.

“Can it hear us talking?”

“No.”

Only then did Xu Xingke lower his voice and continue:

“The Emperor Species is a very dangerous thing, even more dangerous than the Chaos Spirit Light.”

Shen Ye’s heart slowly rose, sensing that his master was about to reveal some secrets about the Emperor Species.

“Is that so? For example?”

He also asked in a low voice.

“For example—you need to find a way to kill it,” Xu Xingke said with a hint of killer intent.

“…” Shen Ye.

Master, do you think I let the worm crawl on me because I don’t want to kill it?

Find a way.

Why don’t you tell me how!

“I also want to avenge the Hun Tian Sect, but I haven’t found a way yet.”

Shen Ye sighed.

Xu Xingke took out his phone and opened a video.

Deep within the Great Tomb.

On the steep rock face.

Rows of runes were carved into the rock, emitting waves of fluctuations that formed sounds in the void:

“Do you want my treasure?”

“Those who want it, go find it in the Great Tomb. I’ve placed them all deep within the Great Tomb!”

The video kept moving.

It could be seen that from the entrance of the Great Tomb all the way to the underground lake deep inside, such runes appeared everywhere.

So, people exploring it would constantly hear this sentence.

Shen Ye was stunned, then suddenly snapped back to reality.

This was back when he was underground, and the Emperor Species was eager to break the seal of fate, wanting to lure humans down to help it deal with the seal.

To appease the Emperor Species, he had casually fabricated this lie.

—It took it seriously!

And it really created this repetitive playback effect!

Damn worm!

—Will humans fall for it?

“Nobody believes it, right, Master?” Shen Ye asked hopefully.

Xu Xingke quickly continued:

“The news has caused a sensation, and everyone is gearing up!”

“—Plus, the Emperor Species is sealed within you, so the Great Tomb is no longer as dangerous.”

“The exploration of the Great Tomb is about to begin in full force!”

Shen Ye’s face stiffened.

The Great Tomb Raiding Era?

Sounds terrible, rather go sailing!

“Don’t feel pressured. Being able to seal it and make the Great Tomb safe is already a great achievement,” Xu Xingke added.

He waved his hand, and Shen Ye’s card immediately flew out and floated in mid-air.

There were two lines of small characters on the card:

“—Perhaps you have ushered in a great era of underground adventure.”

“Settling. Your ranking will be updated soon.”

Shen Ye was speechless.

Xu Xingke, however, knew the truth and laughed, saying:

“The Tower of Tarot is very fair; what you do will be rewarded accordingly.”

Shen Ye, however, was thinking about serious matters.

“Teacher, what about that world of Five Desires?”

At the mention of this, a hint of killer intent flashed in Xu Xingke’s eyes: “We are extracting the Calamity Prime Liquid, preparing to visit that world. After all, it’s rude not to reciprocate.”

Shen Ye said, “I—”

“You go back to school obediently. In a few days, after I’ve killed all the enemies on that planet, I’ll come back and give you privately tutored lessons.” Xu Xingke interrupted him, waving his hand grandly.

Shen Ye was stunned.

Teacher, I actually meant to say, “I won’t go.”

Your student isn’t that heroic.

“Teacher’s arrangements are the most appropriate! I’ll go back now!” Shen Ye said.

“Hmm, now that’s a good student,” Xu Xingke said with satisfaction, patting his shoulder.

…

A few minutes later.

Shen Ye returned to Jade Capital City from the sky.

Qian Rushan personally arrived with several subordinates to pick him up.

“Why bother you to come pick me up?” Shen Ye asked.

“Nonsense, you’re with our Human Martial Arts Group,” Qian Rushan said, beam-faced.

After a few steps, he whispered, “I heard there’s a treasure of the Great Tomb King deep in that Great Tomb?”

Shen Ye was speechless.

He sighed and said:

“Right now, I’m only glad about one thing.”

“What?” Qian Rushan asked.

“Fortunately, when I was choosing a school, I didn’t choose Guixu Middle School in the middle of the sea,” Shen Ye said.

“Why?”

Shen Ye didn’t speak.

—If I had gone to Guixu and created a Pirate King, wouldn’t the whole world be heading towards the Age of Discovery?

“Would you like to go back to the group company and rest? Or do you have other matters?” Qian Rushan asked.

“…I want to go to the zoo,” Shen Ye said.

Qian Rushan looked at him a few times, slapped his forehead, and sighed, “Right, you’re still a child.”

“Forget it, I’m not going,” Shen Ye said again.

Qian Rushan glared at him.

Shen Ye scratched his head, feeling that going to the zoo was pointless.

He did want to see Iron Man.

But talking to a panda in a zoo, with the panda having to pretend to be dumb, that would be no fun.

“Manager Qian, please help me buy twenty bundles of tender bamboo shoots, the most expensive kind, at the panda exhibit in the zoo.”

“When you feed them, please say it’s from Iron Man’s brother.”

“…Are you sure?” Qian Rushan asked.

Shen Ye had already taken out his phone and transferred two thousand yuan from the billion world coins to him.

“Alright, I’ll have my subordinate take care of it.”

“Thanks, I want to go back to the group building now and get a room to rest.”

“No problem.”

A few dozen minutes later.

As soon as Shen Ye entered the room and threw himself onto the wide bed, the voice of the Spirit of Fate Seal immediately rang in his ears:

“The situation is dire.”

“What’s wrong?” Shen Ye asked.

“Humans exploring deep within the Great Tomb will consume the seal’s power. Once the seal’s power is insufficient, it will draw power from my body. If my power is drained, the worm will break free,” said the Spirit of Magic of the Seal.

Shen Ye nodded slightly.

—This was precisely the worm’s original intention.

But the worm’s propaganda had already spread, and strong obstruction now would not stop everyone from going down into the Great Tomb.

“Should I tell Master?” Shen Ye asked.

“Actually, in this situation, you can’t stop those greedy people. They will always find a way, even if it means risking their lives to seek treasure.”

The Spirit of Magic continued:

“You just need to get ahead of them all—leading everyone allows you to control the seal’s power, preventing it from leaking.”

“How exactly do I do that?” Shen Ye asked.

“Do it like this.”

A waist token was thrown over.

Shen Ye caught it, and saw a few characters carved on the token:

“Enroll in the Test.”

The woman spoke: “This is the tomb keeper’s waist token. Possessing it means you have become a tomb soldier.”

“The Great Tomb buries slain enemies, unknown monsters, and foolish tomb raiders. If you can defeat them, you can leave the ranks of ordinary tomb soldiers.”

“What’s the use of that?” Shen Ye asked.

“You can cultivate the power of the tomb keepers, making the entire seal of fate increasingly secure—this also benefits you, you’ll see.”

“Alright.”

Shen Ye reached out and patted the waist token.

The waist token flashed.

He was transported out of the room, standing on the huge sculpted finger deep inside the Great Tomb.

“Up,” the Spirit of Magic said.

Shen Ye’s body vibrated and he flew upwards.

After flying for more than twenty minutes, he saw a passage entrance on the rock wall.

Shen Ye crawled in.

The torches in the cave immediately lit up.

The roaring flames illuminated the surroundings.

There was nothing else here, only a massive coffin.

The moment Shen Ye entered, the waist token vibrated.

The coffin also vibrated incessantly.

A voice rang out from within the coffin:

“A wishful thinking soldier? Very good, I finally have food to eat…”

Boom!

The coffin lid opened.

A cloud of black mist billowed up, and an eerie voice inside said:

“Kill you!”

“Wait a minute,” Shen Ye quickly waved his hand and shouted, “What exactly are you?!”

“Gloomy Whispers” activated!

“I am the Myriad-Year Yin Cold Ice Demon,” the voice said.

“How can I defeat you?” Shen Ye asked again.

“You wishful thinking boy, do you think I’d tell you?” the voice said with a mocking tone.

It didn’t speak.

Shen Ye, on the other hand, was delighted, even a smile appeared on his face:

“First, go learn how to be human.”

Swish—

The black mist vanished.

One second.

Two seconds.

Three seconds.

The black mist reappeared in the void, suddenly plummeted downwards, and collapsed onto the ground, weakly saying:

“I fear nothing but high temperatures. My power will significantly decrease under high temperatures.”

“What’s the most painful thing in your life?” Shen Ye asked curiously.

“…Get out!” the black mist roared.

“Teach you to be a human,” Shen Ye said.

Swish—

The black mist vanished again.

A few seconds later.

The black mist reappeared.

It lay weakly on the ground, groaning, “I’ll talk, I’ll talk—”

“I shouldn’t have provoked that world; their power is too strong. Even now, I haven’t escaped.”

Shen Ye nodded, then asked, “Are you surrendering, or fighting me?”

“Fighting you, you’re so weak, if I win, at least I’ll have something to eat.”

The black mist struggled to get up.

Shen Ye raised an eyebrow.

Alright.

So weak, and still looking down on others?

“Please tell me how to build a nuclear weapon,” Shen Ye said.

“What’s that?” the black mist asked curiously.

“Not saying? Go be a human,” Shen Ye shouted.

“Wait—I just don’t know—” the black mist argued loudly.

“I’m not listening, I’m not listening!” Shen Ye covered his ears.

Swish—

This time, it took a full seven or eight seconds.

“About seven or eight thousand years of torment?” the Big Skeleton whispered.

“That’s all,” Shen Ye nodded in response.

The black mist reappeared.

“Are you really going to fight me?” Shen Ye asked.

“No, I won’t fight you! I surrender!” the black mist screamed frantically.

The waist token vibrated.

Two new lines of small characters appeared on the token:

“You have been promoted from the probationary grave soldier ranks, current position: Official Grave Soldier.”

“Official Grave Soldiers enjoy exclusive rooms, access to the first layer of the Great Tomb, and a salary of 1 Reincarnation Celestial Pill per month.”

Shen Ye let out a sigh of relief, wiping the sweat from his forehead. “That battle was truly difficult. Fortunately, I was quick-witted and immediately found its weakness. After a fierce struggle, I finally emerged victorious.”

“What do you mean fierce struggle!”

The Big Skeleton’s regretful voice sounded: “Damn it, why did I choose ‘Undead Resurrection’ then? ‘Gloomy Whispers’ is clearly the divine skill!”

Shen Ye consoled him:

“The Great Tomb is full of corpses, that’s why I had such an opportunity. If I were outside, your ‘Undead Resurrection’ would still be more useful.”

“Really?” the Big Skeleton was half-skeptical.

“Trust me, you’re right, we all have a bright future!”

As soon as the words fell.

The surrounding scenery vanished.

A three-hundred-meter-tall woman appeared in the depths of darkness, looking down at Shen Ye.

—In the trials of this Great Tomb, she revealed her true form.

“Not bad, your talent is reassuring.”

“Good sister, don’t be too reassured, I need your care,” Shen Ye said, bowing respectfully.

“Spiritual power can activate the waist token—you can fight once more today to solidify your status—but you can’t use tricks like before,” the woman said.

“I call that ‘defeating the enemy without fighting’, sister,” Shen Ye explained.

“It’s starting, be careful!” the woman said.

She punched the darkness.

The surrounding scene reappeared.

In the cave, the ground shook, and the coffin sank underground.

Immediately after, another coffin floated up.

“The battle between you two is about to begin. Let me explain the rules,” the Spirit of Magic said.

The coffin lid opened.

A low voice rose from within the coffin, interjecting:

“To awaken me, who dares seek death? I shall surely—”

Shen Ye glanced at the coffin.

The voice stopped abruptly.

—Pupil Technique: Divine Demon Dual Slaughter!

This technique not only captures souls but also attacks the body!

The moment the pupil technique activated, Shen Ye’s entire body exuded a chilling aura, quickly condensing into a long bow in the void.

A frosty arrow appeared on the long bow.

Moonlight Arrow!

Shen Ye flicked the bowstring with his finger.

The divine arrow immediately shot out, instantly piercing through the coffin, and a sky-piercing frosty aura exploded within the coffin!

This was not over yet!

The moment the arrow shot out, the Guanghan Bow immediately dispersed, transforming back into a sword.

“Go!”

Shen Ye leaped high, and in mid-air, he slashed down with his longsword!

Tai Bai Sword Art!

A sword gleam emerged from the sharp, icy blade.

Swish—

The coffin was cut in half.

Suddenly.

A hand reached out from the coffin, formed a mudra, and growled:

“You think this is enough to kill—”

The voice didn’t continue.

The entire tomb chamber surged with intense lightning.

Shen Ye’s hands conjured two massive spheres of thunder-flame and pushed them forward.

Thunder-Shock Palm!

Thunder magic vanquishes evil, and in this Great Tomb, the vast majority of entities are yin-spiritual and evil.

Boom—

The tomb chamber was directly pierced through, a large hole appearing in the rock wall. The coffin crashed inside, twisted and deformed, oozing black blood.

This series of moves came down so fast that the opponent didn’t even have time to react.

“Sister, is this enough?”

Shen Ye put away the Guanghan Sacred Artifact, asking with a “praise me” expression.

The woman silently stared at him for a long moment before speaking:

“I haven’t even said ‘start’ yet…”

Yes.

The battle hadn’t even begun.

But the battle had already ended.

“But he had already started provoking me,” Shen Ye said honestly, “My life was threatened just now, and I was so nervous and scared that my mind went blank, so I couldn’t help but strike.”

He suddenly looked up, and said seriously:

“He completely disregarded you, even dared to interrupt you, so I taught him a lesson.”

The Spirit of Magic looked into the rock wall.

—That guy was beyond dead.

“Consider this test passed, but you can’t do this tomorrow,” the woman said.

“I’ll fight well tomorrow, I promise.” Shen Ye vowed.

—Tomorrow, there’ll naturally be a different approach.

The female Spirit of Magic lightly tapped the waist token in Shen Ye’s hand from across the space.

“Within today, no one else can shake your position in the Great Tomb.”

“Furthermore, because you’ve attained the status of ‘Official Tomb Soldier’, I’ve also received an infusion of the Great Tomb’s power.”

Upon hearing this, Shen Ye couldn’t help but look down at himself.

He saw that the lines of the seal of fate on his body had indeed become clearer.

That’s good.

—Before defeating the worm, I must reinforce the seal, and absolutely not let it out!

“The first layer of the Great Tomb… what is that place, is it the top?”

Shen Ye asked.

“Not at all. There’s still some distance from the true first layer of the Great Tomb. You can directly teleport there with your waist token,” the female Spirit of Magic said.

“It’s already so far from the ground, and it’s not even the first layer of the Great Tomb?” Shen Ye gasped.

“Teleport once and you’ll know.”

“Okay.”

Shen Ye activated the waist token.

A flash.

His feet landed on solid ground.

On both sides were walls entirely made of metal.

Torches lit up one after another.

Shen Ye observed his surroundings, only to see the corridor stretching endlessly into the distance.

On both sides of the corridor were numerous closed doors.

“The first layer of the Great Tomb is where tomb soldiers patrol and rest. You can use your waist token to open a door, and the rest room inside will be for your personal use.”

The female Spirit of Magic said.

“Okay, I’ll try.” Shen Ye waved his waist token.

The nearest door to him slowly opened.

Inside, there was only a meditation cushion, a small tea table, and a small bottle.

The female Spirit of Magic’s voice rang in his ear:

“The bottle contains the Reincarnation Celestial Pill. Taking it can improve your comprehension—if your comprehension isn’t high enough, you won’t achieve anything in the Great Tomb.”

Shen Ye opened the bottle and poured out a pill.

The pill was cool to the touch, emitting a faint mist, and the air quickly filled with a subtle fragrance.

“I specifically helped you choose the teleportation location and the open soldier’s lounge to ensure the pills inside were intact,” the female Spirit of Magic said.

“Are some already spoiled?” Shen Ye asked.

“Yes, after too long a time, many have decayed, and the pills are unusable,” the female Spirit of Magic sighed.

“Who exactly is the master of the Great Tomb, can you tell me?” Shen Ye cautiously asked.

“The great master? No, I do not know—since my awakening, my mission has been to guard the seal and prevent any external invasion.” The female Spirit of Magic said.

She paused, then added: “Sometimes I recall some images, but they quickly fade away.”

At this moment, a faint light appeared as small characters:

“Reincarnation Celestial Pill.”

“Level unknown, treasure.”

“Can improve comprehension after use.”

—Just as the female Spirit of Magic said.

Then let’s eat it.

Shen Ye swallowed the pill whole, then looked meaningfully at the void.

In fact.

After devouring a portion of Tian Luo’s power, his attribute points had been continuously increasing in fits and starts.

Occasionally, prompts like “Strength +1” or “Agility +0.5” would appear.

So his attributes hadn’t stabilized yet.

How much would this pill increase his comprehension?

The void shifted slightly.

A line of small characters appeared in front of Shen Ye:

“Insight increased by 20 points, the characteristic ‘Meridian True Qi Circulation’ begins to emerge.”

20 points!

It’s terrifying that one pill can increase comprehension by so much.

Shen Ye felt something, and suddenly looked at the wall.

He saw that the decorative lines on the wall seemed to hold a certain extraordinary meaning in his eyes.

“Interesting… why such a brilliant idea, it’s incredible.”

He murmured, taking a step forward and placing his hand on the wall.

A surge of spiritual power circulated through his limbs and bones. With Shen Ye’s exceptionally high resonance of over two hundred points, it intertwined with his flesh and blood, giving birth to something extraordinary.

As soon as this thing was born, it was immediately absorbed by the lines on the wall, turning into power that propelled a faint glow to rapidly circulate along the lines.

“A spell hidden in the wall… only appearing when special power is injected…”

Shen Ye murmured to himself, instinctively taking a step back.

Immediately afterward.

A figure entirely composed of spiritual light appeared on the wall.

The figure glanced at Shen Ye, drew a long blade from the void, stepped forward with its left foot, rolled to the side, lightly raised the blade, and slashed towards Shen Ye.

That dull, powerless, light-shaped longsword continuously magnified before Shen Ye’s eyes.

He watched the blade, sweating profusely.

No way.

There was no way to dodge it.

This blade was like an demon, as if it obscured the heavens and earth, carrying the might of ten thousand thunderbolts, slashing towards his body.

No matter what methods he tried, there was no way to break this blade.

The blade’s edge was already upon him.

Suddenly.

The longblade, along with the figure, vanished, and the power that had activated the lines on the wall returned to Shen Ye’s body.

Although this power had become much weaker, it still persisted in circulating through Shen Ye’s body.

It guided Shen Ye’s body, completing that blade technique once, and then slowly vanished.

Shen Ye stood motionless.

Comprehension…

He needed more comprehension!

He absolutely had to learn this blade technique!

His gaze shifted, falling directly on the attribute panel.

Various attributes were still increasing.

But all the free attribute points were gone.

Currently, he only had five titles: “Voodoo Boy,” “Fun Seeker,” ” ‘Dangerous’ True Man,” “The Boy Who Lived,” and “Mighty Dragon Crossing the River.”

Voodoo Boy would need to combine titles and things later.

Fun Seeker was a battle trump card.

Dangerous True Man was a mythical title, absolutely useful.

The Boy Who Lived was a blue title, and converting it to attribute points wouldn’t yield much.

“Devour the purple title ‘Mighty Dragon Crossing the River’.”

“Devoured. You have gained 10 free attribute points.”

“Put all of them into comprehension.”

Shen Ye’s comprehension leaped, directly from 73 to 83.

He closed his eyes, silently recalling the saber technique he had just witnessed, engaging all his thoughts, and avidly comprehending the true meaning of the saber art within it.

After a long while.

He finally murmured, “It’s incredible…”

He raised a hand.

The Sect Master’s Tome quietly appeared, turning to the fourth page.

Rustle—

Countless sect weapons emerged from the pages, surrounding him.

Small characters appeared on the page:

“The Hun Tian Sect’s basic cultivation technique ‘Frost Moon Shocking Heaven’ can no longer satisfy the combat needs of higher levels.”

“Choose a weapon that matches your affinity.”

“—You can now take on a second profession in the sect.”

Shen Ye extended his hand.

All the sect weapons surrounding him cried out, as if vying to be in his grasp.

A long blade cleanly struck away the long spears, heavy hammers, battle axes, and iron rods on either side, landing first in Shen Ye’s hand.

Shen Ye stared at the long blade.

The blade trembled slightly, swaying gently in the wind, a fragmented radiance blooming, reflected on the narrow, cramped four walls of the room, dreamt and illusory.

For some unknown reason.

He understood the blade’s meaning.

The blade was beckoning him.

It invited him to unleash power with it, to achieve a resonance.

Shen Ye closed his eyes slightly, carefully recalling the saber technique just now.

In a moment.

In the silence, he stepped forward, drew his blade, launched into the air, spun around, and slashed downwards with a streak of saber light.

This saber light was not sharp, but rather like a refreshing spring breeze, or the gentle drizzle falling on a cloudy day, lingering and irresistible.

One move fell.

Silent, without a trace.

No power whatsoever could be seen.

However, a whistling wind suddenly erupted from the blade’s edge.

—It was singing joyfully!

Faint streaks of light appeared in the void, quickly forming lines of small characters:

“You have gained the approval of the Sect Artifact ‘Crimson Shadow Blade’.”

“The specific powers of this blade are as follows:”

“Dance: Perfectly absorbs the Guanghan Sacred Artifact onto the blade, possessing the ‘Origin Devour’ characteristic.”

“Sip: When blocking enemy attacks with the blade, overlapping blade lights automatically rise from the blade’s edge to counterattack.”

“Shazhou Frost: Infuse the power of the Dharma Aspect into the long blade, and the blade’s power will undergo a transformative change.”

“You have selected your weapon.”

“You have completed your second profession, your profession is:”

“Bladesman.”

“Gained First Profession Skill: Lamp-Slaying Shadow.”

“Attention!”

“This blade technique is inferior to the one you just demonstrated, and has therefore been superseded.”

“This blade technique has been broken down into various basic blade techniques, integrated into your knowledge and experience accumulation.”

Shen Ye nodded slightly.

Yes.

Just as Xiao Mengyu became a Sword Maiden—

Once a profession recognized by the spirit world is acquired, the job holder naturally gains the initial skill of that profession.

However, if one’s own sword skills surpass the initial skill, it can be replaced.

The Spirit World dismantles the initial skill into knowledge and insights, which are then integrated into the professional’s mind.

This is a bestowal and a blessing.

Shen Ye closed his eyes slightly, allowing various basic blade techniques to become clear in his mind amidst waves of enlightenment.

At the same time, the move just now was also refined by him.

“You have comprehended a blade technique.”

“Thinking of You.”

“First Layer of the Spirit World.”

“Space-time blade technique, summoning blade technique, full moon blade technique, close-quarters assassination skill.”

“Description: Summons the power of the烛龙 to attach to the blade’s edge, causing time and space to experience a slight retardation during your strike, allowing you to execute the full moon blade technique.”

“—Thinking of you makes one old, and the years pass quickly.”

Shen Ye’s heart swelled with joy.

This was not the bizarre “Unborn Master,” nor the “Dark Lord” which was difficult to use purely on his own, but a normal close-quarters cold weapon profession!

The voice of the female Spirit of Magic suddenly spoke:

“Did you just receive a transmission from the Great Tomb?”

“Yes, after eating that Reincarnation Celestial Pill, a certain power seems to have appeared in my body, allowing me to activate the lines on the wall,” Shen Ye said.

“Not good,” the female Spirit of Magic said.

“What’s not good?” Shen Ye wondered.

“You exit the room first—I need to conceal it!”

The female Spirit of Magic emerged from behind him, forming a hand seal.

Rumble!

Amidst the roar, the room slowly began to sink.

Shen Ye quickly exited the room and stood in the corridor outside.

He watched as the room disappeared, replaced by one that was decaying everywhere, with crumbling lines on the walls, an overturned tea table, and a shattered pill bottle.

“What’s this for?”

Shen Ye was puzzled.

The female Spirit of Magic sighed, “I just didn’t want you to eat expired pills, who knew you ate a high-grade Reincarnation Celestial Pill.”

“By passing it, you’ve gained the Great Tomb’s secret art, which will inevitably lead to the ‘Three Disasters’ test.”

“Only by overcoming the three calamities can you take that unique art out.”

“Otherwise, you can only die here!”

Shen Ye was startled, wanting to blame the other party for not saying so earlier, but then remembered the other party’s good intentions, so the words of blame couldn’t be spoken.

After all, no one can control such an accident.

“Never mind, I really like this blade technique. Three disasters it is, then.”

He said softly.

Seeing him say this, the female Spirit of Magic’s expression relaxed, and she quickly said:

“After the time it takes an incense stick to burn, the ‘Three Disasters’ will erupt.”

“Also, be careful—”

“There are other tomb soldiers nearby, I can sense one approaching rapidly.”

Shen Ye looked at the dilapidated tomb soldier’s rest room and said understandingly:

“You’re afraid other tomb soldiers will discover that I ate a high-grade Reincarnation Celestial Pill, right? Wait, why would there be other tomb soldiers here?”

“Unclear—I’ll hide first.”

“Okay!”

The female Spirit of Magic quietly disappeared.

Shen Ye stood there for a few more minutes.

Suddenly.

A figure appeared in the hallway.

Shen Ye looked at him and immediately bowed, saying:

“I didn’t expect an adult to have explored this far.”

Opposite him.

Mogakou was wearing a black hooded robe, staring at him with a solemn expression.
