Gates of the Myriad Realms Chapter 332

Panda Office.

The Little Girl has fallen asleep.

Shen Ye is in his Aspect, gazing at the endless sea of darkness with Guo Yunye.

Big Skeleton and Four Kings are studying the giant celestial puppet.

“This thing seems to be controllable. Look, there’s an entrance on its forehead.”

Big Skeleton jumps down and stands on the puppet’s head.

The Four Kings jump down separately and stand in front of the puppet’s chest—there are several small doors here as well, allowing entry.

They begin to try to control this celestial puppet.

Shen Ye squats by the sea and throws a stone into it.

“Gudong!”

The stone slowly sinks into the depths of the water.

“There’s no shallows, it’s an bottomless abyss as soon as you step in,” Guo Yunye says.

Shen Ye nods, “The seawater seems to be a special seal… unless something special is used to dispel it, the sealed things cannot be released.”

“By the way, Yunye, how is your combat now?”

“I’m on the verge of a breakthrough. After this breakthrough, my Aspect will become stronger, and my professional skills will be enhanced in the future,” Guo Yunye says.

“Then start cultivating. It seems nothing is happening here for now anyway.”

“Okay!”

At this moment, a huge tremor sounds from not far behind them.

Shen Ye looks back.

He sees the more than ten-meter-tall celestial puppet has climbed out of the deep pit and is walking with large strides on the ground.

Thump! Thump! Thump!

Every step the celestial puppet takes, the ground trembles slightly.

Perhaps newly learning to control the celestial puppet, Big Skeleton and Four Kings are quite excited, making this large war killing machine walk back and forth non-stop.

Suddenly.

A line of faint light appears before Shen Ye’s eyes:

“Current energy obtained: 0.1.”

Shen Ye is slightly surprised.

What?

Where did this energy come from?

He surveys the entire dungeon but sees no changes.

The only change is the celestial puppet walking back and forth.

So that’s how it is!

His Aspect has the essential power of “transmutation and regeneration,” and the more than ten-meter-tall heavy metal celestial puppet walking back and forth—

Its impact on the ground is being absorbed and converted into energy!

This is a good way to save money!

“Hey—”

Shen Ye waves to the celestial puppet from a distance.

The celestial puppet stops and looks at him.

“What’s wrong?”

Big Skeleton’s voice sounds from inside the puppet.

“Don’t stop, keep walking until you run out of energy!” Shen Ye shouts.

“Why?” Big Skeleton asks.

“Impact—the impact this thing creates on the ground when it walks can accumulate energy!” Shen Ye says.

“So that’s it, haha, leave it to us, we’ll gather enough energy for you to dominate everywhere in the future!” Big Skeleton makes a heroic declaration.

The celestial puppet walks around the mountain with renewed vigor.

Shen Ye waits for a moment.

Another line of faint text quietly appears:

“Current energy obtained: 0.1.”

That’s right!

It’s the energy from the celestial puppet’s footsteps!

Shen Ye’s heart fills with joy. Just as he is about to say some encouraging words to Big Skeleton, he hears a phone ringing.

He pulls it out of his pocket and sees it’s an alarm clock.

It’s now 11:57 PM.

It will be a new day soon.

Shen Ye pulls his attention back, opens his eyes on the sofa, and glances at the Little Girl.

The Little Girl is sleeping soundly.

Indeed.

She must be exhausted after all this.

There’s only one more curse from the Demon of Fear left.

Let her rest.

—Anyway, she has a clone in the real world now, so she won’t be replaced for not being there for too long.

Shen Ye returns to his Aspect.

He looks at the surging boundless sea, lost in thought.

Actually, with the new day, he could go to Twilight Star to explore new terms.

But he feels a bit unwilling.

Being attacked like this, almost killed.

It’s really annoying.

Since when did he become someone who constantly fled for his life?

He was clearly set up.

Living such a difficult life.

All because of the negative personalities of the Nine Aspects.

—Even when he worked for the Nine Aspects to gain his own benefits, he still let the other party kill a dragon as a reward.

“Four Kings, let Big Skeleton continue walking, and you guys get a boat. We’re leaving soon.”

He ties the jade pendant named “Glazed Moon” to his waist.

After the Four Kings get the boat ready, they all leave his Aspect.

The blank sea of the Dharma realm.

The small boat glides silently.

In front, a large expanse of Aspect radiating dark light gradually becomes visible.

—It is precisely the combined Aspect of the Nine Aspects’ multiple negative personalities!

Should they go over?

The Four Kings all turn to look at Shen Ye.

Shen Ye, however, says softly:

“No rush, wait a moment.”

He closes his eyes slightly, then suddenly opens them wide.

“—Gaze!”

Lines of faint text quickly appear in the void:

“You activated the identity-type stat term ‘Baron of Silence’.”

“Description: You can choose a quarter of an hour each day to observe everything that happens during that time from the perspective of Chaluchitorik, the Creator of the Fourth Epoch, limited to events related to you.”

Shen Ye looks at the colossal combined Aspect.

Along with the power of the term, a female voice quietly sounds in his ear:

“Originally, I did not intend to intervene in this struggle.”

“But you are my Baron, caught in their internal conflict, and now you have summoned my gaze.”

“Hmph.”

“You’ll probably die soon, but it doesn’t matter, you’re still my Baron before you die, and I’ll still cover you.”

Shen Ye knows this is the voice of Chaluchitorik, the Creator of the Fourth Epoch.

But after she “hmph,” the next sentence is too explosive.

—It sounds so dangerous.

Shen Ye is still feeling surprised when countless streaks of light flash in his eyes, and then a picture is directly imprinted in his mind through his eyes.

This picture is so clear and profound that Shen Ye can recall it in his mind with just a slight thought.

—It is a large map.

“Map of the Myriad Shadow’s Lament Demonic City.”

“Map.”

“Description: This is a map of the Nine Aspects’ negative personality combined Aspect, and it has been engraved in your mind.”

“How to use: As long as you reach a certain part of this Aspect, you will know the structure of that part of the Aspect.”

“—Chaluchitorik, the Creator of the Fourth Epoch, gazes upon you.”

This Creator actually supported him.

That’s good!

Shen Ye snaps his fingers: “Go quietly, don’t be seen.”

The Four Kings understand, put away their paddles, and quietly jump out of the boat, submerging into the water.

They slowly drag the boat forward underwater.

The wooden boat gently docks.

Shen Ye lies on the boat and quietly grabs something from the void.

The Hongying Blade appears in his hand.

There is no sound in the city, which remains silent.

Good opportunity!

Shen Ye moves swiftly, darting towards the city, and suddenly whispers:

“Door.”

A door quietly appears.

Shen Ye crashes into the door and disappears.

Just as he was about to sneak into the city, he left!

In the void.

The voice of Chaluchitorik, the Creator of the Fourth Epoch, suddenly sounds.

She bursts into uncontrollable laughter:

“Interesting! Too interesting!”

“—This guy really takes advice!”

Along with her laughter,

The Myriad Shadow’s Lament Demonic City suddenly moves.

Like a giant with a massive body, it turns over and lets out a long sigh into the void:

“Die————”

Invisible ripples spread in all directions.

This seems to be an incredibly unimaginable spell, causing countless people to die immediately in both the Dharma realm and the real world.

But—

Shen Ye has already left.

On the other side.

Twilight Star.

In the square.

Many people are fishing.

The professionals stretch themselves, and once they are ready, they secure their fishing rods to special clips, and then tie the fishing line with the hook to their bodies.

Once prepared, they leap downwards.

This is a direct journey to the “End” Star!

Shen Ye appears quietly.

Although he is full of anger, he is not just a gangster who only knows how to fight and kill.

The Creator’s words, “You will probably die soon,” are no longer a hint, but a clear warning.

It even said, “I’ll still cover you before you die.”

Such a clear dissuasion, should he still go?

One must believe in evil.

If he doesn’t listen to the words of a big shot like the Creator, and still thinks he’s so powerful and unique—

He deserves to die.

Suddenly.

A Maid looks towards Shen Ye.

Shen Ye looks at her face and is a bit surprised.

This Maid is the same one who introduced him last time.

“What a coincidence, esteemed guest, welcome!”

The Maid bows politely.

“Thank you, which zone is Twilight Star in now?” Shen Ye asks.

“Peace Zone, sir,” the Maid says.

The Peace Zone is a relatively safe area.

“I’d like to buy a ‘Space Folding Detector’.”

“Alright, I’ll get it for you right away.”

The transaction is completed quickly.

—The last fishing rod was thrown away by Big Skeleton; he must cherish this one.

Shen Ye shakes the rod in his hand, a hint of pain on his face.

Aspects really cost money.

All his currency is almost used up.

He only has two gold bars left.

A total of 600 grams.

If given to the Aspect, it would be gone in an instant.

Tsk.

As a Heavenly King, he has 100 million credit on the Death Star.

But the Death Star is occupied by the Nine Aspects’ memories!

The Nightmare World is also sealed within the Nine Aspects’ memory world—

He is isolated and helpless.

Simply stretched.

“Let me ask you, what exactly is valuable on the ‘End’ Star?” Shen Ye asks.

“Are you asking for paid information, or just a free casual chat?” the Maid asks.

“How much for paid information?” Shen Ye asks.

“Thirty kilograms of gold for the latest information, the most core content,” the Maid smiles gently.

“Then let’s just go with the free one,” Shen Ye replies blankly.

“Okay, no problem. I’ll chat with you for a bit now, hoping you’ll achieve good returns on the ‘End’ Star.”

The Maid’s expression remains unchanged, and she continues in a gentle tone:

“The planet’s surface is a barren canyon, with no vegetation.”

“So anything beyond rocks, sand, and loess almost certainly has some value, and might even be a treasure.”

Treasure?

“Of course, it could also be something that kills you,” the Maid adds.

“Do you acquire treasures from the ‘End’ Star here?” Shen Ye asks.

“Of course we do,” the Maid smiles.

She bows to Shen Ye and then withdraws.

Treasure…

A thought forms in Shen Ye’s mind.

A certain classmate seems to be a treasure hunter today.

It would be a pity not to ride on his coattails.

Shen Ye finds an empty fishing hook slot, and sees “Press once, dedicated guard: 10 grams of gold paid” written next to it.

Very good.

Having to pay makes him feel more at ease.

Because if paying money still can’t solve the problem, then this business won’t last long.

Shen Ye gently presses it.

The Maid, who hadn’t walked far, turns back and smiles, saying:

“Thank you for your patronage.”

“Is it safe?” Shen Ye asks.

“Teleportation arrays are dense on Twilight Star. If someone makes trouble under surveillance, they will be directly teleported to the ‘Abyss Zone’,” the Maid says.

Shen Ye pays the gold directly.

“Please go forth and explore. I wish you a fruitful journey,” the Maid says, bowing slightly as she guards the fishing rod.

“Thank you.”

Shen Ye ties the rope and leaps down.

—The quality of the Space Folding Detector is guaranteed; he barely felt anything as he passed through the vast outer space and landed directly on the planet.

Yellow sand fills the sky.

All around are bare rocks.

The scorching sun hangs high.

As far as the eye can see, there is no living thing.

“A brand new day…”

Shen Ye walks forward step by step, his feet treading the scorching sand.

The whole world seemed dead.

He saw no one, heard no sound.

Only he walked slowly through the desert.

After walking for a while.

When the novelty was consumed by the scorching sun, he reached out from the void and smacked—

“We’ll meet under the moonlight at Yao Terrace.”

—A profusely sweating male student was pulled over by him, a hand on his shoulder.

“Huh? What’s going on?”

Guo Yunye looks around in shock.

“This is a secret mission, Yunye. Please help me figure out which way to go to find treasures,” Shen Ye says.

Guo Yunye immediately transforms into a treasure-hunting dog, senses for a moment, and points a paw in one direction:

“Go this way.”

“Thanks,” Shen Ye says.

In an instant.

Shen Ye, the desert, and the scorching sun disappeared completely.

Guo Yunye finds himself back at the foot of the steep mountain.

As a high school student who has only recently begun cultivating, he has many things to experience before he will understand what just happened.

At this moment, he still doesn’t know what that scene meant.

“Hey, I saw Shen Ye just now. It seems he’s going on an adventure in a harsh environment. Aren’t we going to help?”

Guo Yunye asks the more than ten-meter-tall bronze puppet.

The bronze puppet pauses, then buzzes:

“It’s nothing… He’ll call us when he needs us… Now I need to hurry and take steps…”

Guo Yunye thinks that makes sense.

He quickly re-enters his meditative state, once again engrossed in his practice.

On the other side.

Shen Ye confirmed the direction and began to move forward.

—It would be good to have treasures, but it doesn’t matter if there aren’t any.

The most important thing is the stat terms.

Quickly get rid of the last negative stat term, return to normal, then accumulate attribute points and break through to a higher level.

A canyon suddenly appeared ahead.

Shen Ye was overjoyed.

With a canyon comes shade.

Perhaps there are treasures as well.

Anyway, it doesn’t matter if there are no treasures; he’s dying from the sun, so walking in a shady place is also good.

He quickly enters the canyon.

The sunlight was indeed blocked.

Shen Ye hums a tune as he walks for a while, gradually sensing a fluctuation of magical power.

Ahead.

Around a large rocky slope.

Below the slope, two groups of professionals are engaged in fierce combat.

Shen Ye inexplicably breathes a sigh of relief.

Huh?

Why am I sighing?

…It seems to be an instinctive reaction.

Earlier, at the edge of that Myriad Shadow’s Lament Demonic City, he had actually sensed a certain danger.

Pe’a Suo wasn’t there.

Chaluchitorik, the Creator, had given a hint.

So his nerves were stretched to the extreme, and even after escaping, he couldn’t relax.

Until now.

Most of these professionals are at the fourth or fifth level of the Dharma Realm.

Indeed, their level is not inferior to his own.

But compared to beings like Emperor Species, the Nine Aspects, and the Creator, they are far, far behind.

So a skewed sense of security arose in his heart.

Shen Ye leans against the stone wall to rest.

The “Glazed Moon” jade pendant is on him.

Since the two groups of professionals haven’t seen him, they can’t discover him.

This is good.

—Things not related to himself are not worth getting involved in.

But—

Shen Ye forms a spell seal with both hands and shouts softly:

“Aspect Descent!”

The Guanghan Palace silently opened a corner from behind him, which he tore off and threw among the chaotic crowd.

This suddenly made a fortune.

Faint lights constantly appear, gathering into small words:

“You absorbed 10 energy points;”

“You absorbed 10 energy points;”

“…”

After a while.

The two groups of professionals finally finish fighting.

The three surviving professionals, after exchanging harsh words, limp away.

Shen Ye then walks out.

Wow.

So many corpses.

Looking closer, their souls have all departed.

Oh well.

Thanks to your battle, my energy has risen to 300.

For the sake of energy—

Shen Ye clears his throat and asks, “If you don’t mind, I’ll bury your bodies.”

“Thank you.”

“Of course, we’re already dead.”

“The young man is so kind.”

“Please bury me, many thanks.”

The corpses chatter.

Shen Ye beams.

He directly throws the Celestial Puppet out of his Aspect, has Big Skeleton control the puppet to dig a large pit in the ground, and places all the bodies inside.

The whole process takes no more than two minutes.

“Everyone, you’ve been buried. See you next time!”

Shen Ye waves to the corpses.

Suddenly.

One of the corpses speaks up:

“Wait a moment!”

“Do you have any other instructions?” Shen Ye asks.

“There’s a heavy treasure in the southwest direction. Everyone in the know is rushing there, and a big battle is likely to erupt. You’d best avoid it,” the corpse says.

Southwest direction?

Isn’t that the same direction Guo Yunye mentioned?

Shen Ye is overjoyed and quickly bows his hands, saying:

“Thanks!”

The celestial puppet covers the dirt.

Shen Ye sends the celestial puppet back into his Aspect, then turns and sprints towards the southwest.

—A great battle!

A great battle will surely absorb a lot of energy!

He travels for only a few tens of miles.

He encounters six or seven professionals ahead.

Leading them is a tall, stout man.

“I am Mel.”

“You’re quite something, kid. Young and already at the fourth level of the Dharma Realm. Do you want to join us and explore together?”

The man asks Shen Ye loudly.

Shen Ye waves his hand, “Sorry, I prefer to be alone.”

The man’s smile instantly turns cold, and he says:

“Just you alone, you think you can seize that rare treasure?”

“I’m not interested in treasures, just joining the fun,” Shen Ye says.

“Trying to pick up scraps? Hmph, naive fool, little do you know that onlookers like you are the first ones to be dealt with,” the man says.

Shen Ye thinks for a moment, then bows slightly and sincerely says, “Thank you for the reminder.”

The man stares at him, then suddenly turns and walks back to his team.

“Forget it, there’s nothing to say to a naive guy like you. Let fate decide.”

After speaking, he leads his subordinates away with a swagger.

Shen Ye smiles, not taking it to heart.

At least the other party didn’t make a move.

He continues to advance in that direction.

Along the way, he encountered more and more professionals.

As a professional at the fourth level of the Dharma Realm, his age made people consider him a genius youth.

Many professionals came up to ask if he wanted to team up, but he refused them one by one.

Twenty minutes later.

Deep in the canyon.

Hundreds of professionals gathered, making a lively scene.

But—

No sign of where the treasure might be.

“Everyone!”

Suddenly someone shouts loudly:

“The Earth Demon Beast is about to appear. This monster is a fourth-level demon beast of the Dharma Realm, but it possesses various tricky talents for large-scale attacks and is very cunning.”

“For everyone’s safety, our three major teams have joined forces and recommend that teams with fewer than twenty people withdraw immediately.”

“If you don’t heed our advice, you’ll be responsible for the consequences!”

As soon as the words fall.

Some teams immediately leave.

The remaining people all start to stir, seemingly very dissatisfied with such an arrangement.

Shen Ye quietly retreats, hiding behind a broken stone wall.

Before long.

The defiant individuals and the three major teams begin to quarrel.

The quarrel quickly escalates into a battle.

Chaos ensues!

To compete for the right to stay, the professionals fight fiercely.

Various spells fly, swords flash, and screams intertwine with curses.

Shen Ye cautiously casts his Aspect.

He pays attention to the changes around him. As soon as a spell flies towards him, he immediately activates “We’ll meet under the moonlight at Yao Terrace” and directly moves the spell into his Aspect.

Boom!

The towering mountains were struck by the spell, shattered rocks crumbling, making a terrifying noise.

“Your energy has increased by 10 points!”

It’s profitable!

Any spell attack that occurs within his Aspect can provide energy!

Shen Ye smiles cheerily, leaning against the stone wall, waiting for those flying spells, then drawing energy from them.

Time slowly passes.

The three major teams, with their superior strength, have essentially cleared the area.

“Anyone else?”

A leader asks.

Several professionals release tracking spells.

In an instant.

“All cleared, no one left!”

“Yes, it’s clean here!”

They all say.

“Alright, everyone rest where you are and prepare to capture the Earth Demon Beast!”

“Yes!”

Shen Ye quietly hides behind the stone wall in the distance, looking down at the faintly glowing jade pendant on his waist.

—If it wasn’t seen, it wasn’t discovered.

This treasure is really useful.

As he was thinking, he suddenly saw the sand by his side silently surging.

A dark yellow monster quietly appeared, meeting Shen Ye’s gaze.

Earth Demon Beast?

Shen Ye quickly makes a shushing gesture, indicating to the other party to remain quiet.

—He has no grudge against the other party, so it’s not advisable to attack.

On the contrary, it’s more justifiable to just sponge off some of the lingering battle effects, as it’s safe and he doesn’t have to worry about others seeking revenge.

The Earth Demon Beast looks at the human in front of him, then secretly peeks at the three teams in the distance, unsure of the situation.

Is this person stupid?

Why didn’t he warn his companions when he saw himself?

…Never mind.

They’ll all die!

The Earth Demon Beast shakes its claws, releasing a large-scale destructive elemental spell—

Meteor Shower!

But behold—

But behold, Shen Ye extends a hand, and the spell, just as it leaves the Earth Demon Beast’s claws, before it can even unfold, is thrown into his Aspect with “We’ll meet under the moonlight at Yao Terrace.”

Boom!!!

A large hole was blown out of the steep mountain.

At the same time, a line of faint text appears:

“Powerful elemental spell, converted into a large amount of energy, approximately 100 units, specific value being calculated.”

Shen Ye gives the Earth Demon Beast a grateful look.

That’s a good deal!

This Earth Demon Beast, to kill him, immediately unleashed such a powerful spell.

Its strength is not overly exaggerated.

If it were a spell that could destroy his Aspect in one move, he certainly wouldn’t dare to absorb it.

Its power lies in—

The Earth Demon Beast is stunned, its hands constantly flinging forward, frantically releasing various large-scale attack spells.

Usually, such spells require time to prepare.

But the Earth Demon Beast can cast instantly!

Now Shen Ye doesn’t dare to take them all.

For fairness—

He gathers the Earth Demon Beast and all the spells, letting them appear in the deep sky of his Aspect, then jumps onto the stone platform and shouts towards the three teams on that side:

“Hey!”

Everyone looks over.

“There’s still a master who hasn’t left!”

“Kill him!”

“Ignorant fool.”

“Charge!”

The professionals chatter, drawing their weapons, but Shen Ye’s voice drowns them out:

“It’s coming, prepare yourselves quickly!”

After shouting, the Earth Demon Beast and some spells are thrown out.

Both the Earth Demon Beast and the professionals from the three large factions are stunned.

In a flash.

The Earth Demon Beast understands.

That kid isn’t with these people!

But any human professional should be killed!

The Earth Demon Beast goes mad, frantically releasing new attack spells.

On the other side.

The leaders of the three professional teams also understand.

“Everyone, be careful!”

“That young man is a transformed Earth Demon Beast—”

“There are two Earth Demon Beasts, and they are cooperating!”

Immediately, some people cast defensive spells to resist the Earth Demon Beast.

The others go to chase Shen Ye.

As for Shen Ye—

He had already leaped off the stone platform, untied the fishing hook from his back, and then opened the door and left.

Panda Office.

Shen Ye quietly appears, flops onto the sofa, and grabs the cola from the coffee table to drink.

The surroundings are quiet.

No roar of spells, no corpses, no monsters, no screams or moans.

“Where did you go?”

Nancy asks sleepily, yawning.

“Grabbed a late-night snack, getting ready to come back and sleep a bit—you go back to sleep,” Shen Ye says.

Nancy mumbles a couple of words, turns over, and sinks back into dreamland.

Shen Ye finishes his cola in one gulp, takes off his shoes, comfortably lies down on the sofa, and looks towards the void.

Faint light appears in the void, displaying lines of small text:

“The evaluation stat term obtained from this door opening is:”

“Warmonger.”

“Passive black stat term (negative).”

“Congratulations, you have endured three curses. From now on, your stat term will return to normal.”
