Gates of the Myriad Realms Chapter 469

Chapter 452: Shadow Divine Mother!

On the eighth floor, there were hardly any people left.

Everyone else wasn’t that fast.

—Only Shen Ye, relying on the power of the emblem, moved unimpeded.

The ninth floor.

Thick pure white carpet covered the floor.

Glimmering transparent bead strings hung down from the ceiling, forming curtain-like waterfalls that layered over each other, enveloping the entire room.

A faint light appeared as small characters:

“In the ninth floor trial, you must find the correct path from countless illusions.”

“Due to the credential you possess, you are exempted from this trial.”

“You may proceed upstairs.”

Continue upstairs?

Shen Ye’s gaze pierced through the layers of curtains, looking towards the stairs at the other end of the room.

That was indeed a temptation.

To rely on this emblem to go all the way to the twenty-first floor, then take it off, and instantly become the ultimate victor.

—It seemed possible, yet also impossible.

Should he gamble?

Pfft.

I am sworn enemies with gambling and drugs.

Moreover.

Don’t treat those big shots as idiots.

Shen Ye retracted his gaze and instead carefully observed every part of the ninth-floor room.

The Lord of All Eras had said that the woman was “in danger” and trapped on the ninth floor of the giant ship.

Who knew how much of that was true and how much was false.

But he did indeed need to save that woman.

Shen Ye observed his surroundings, a bewildered expression gradually appearing on his face.

This floor.

There wasn’t even a ghost.

Where was he supposed to find that woman?

Right.

The challenge on this floor was to “find the correct path from countless illusions.”

Perhaps I should look for the woman within the illusions.

Shen Ye began to observe the diamond curtains that emitted layers of light.

Lines of faint light quietly appeared:

“You are outside the trial of the Covenant of Truth. You could have gone straight upstairs, but you didn’t.”

“Currently outside the trial.”

“Continued observation of this floor will lead to ominous consequences.”

The surrounding light surged like a tide.

Shen Ye’s vision blurred.

Suddenly.

The surrounding light and shadows shifted.

Flames shot up from beneath his feet.

On the boundless wasteland, various skeletal dead things emitted eerie ghost fires, fighting endlessly against each other.

The moment Shen Ye appeared, the dead things gradually stopped fighting and turned to stare at him.

“Micttecaxihuatl.”

Shen Ye whispered.

Bang.

The venerable Lord of the Undead quietly descended, adjusting the burning lady’s hat on her head with a hand, and observed the surroundings:

“Did Failun sneak back, or did you let him go back?”

“I asked him to go back and help me find upgrade materials for the Whispering Gloom, he didn’t run off on his own.” Shen Ye immediately said.

Only then did Micttecaxihuatl “hmph,” her tone becoming less stern:

“You keep an eye on him. If there are any suitable corpses to eat, throw them to him. He will grow stronger.”

“Don’t worry, Failun is my brother. I’ll look out for him.” Shen Ye said.

The earth trembled endlessly.

This was the dead creatures on the plain charging.

They charged towards where Shen Ye stood, seemingly wanting to tear him to shreds in one go.

Micttecaxihuatl slowly raised her hand and formed a spell.

A layer of yellowish-green light, tinged with black, immediately appeared on Shen Ye, exuding a faint, peculiar aroma.

“This is?”

“This is a disguise spell, it can make you impersonate one of the most disgusting semi-dead creatures to the undead—I’m very good at this spell.”

“Why not disguise as a powerful undead monster to deter them?”

“Because this world is unfathomable. It’s best not to cause too much of a stir; it’s safer that way.”

“Got it.”

As the two conversed, the excited howls of the dead creatures gradually ceased.

They all showed disgust and turned away.

“Be careful,” Micttecaxihuatl warned, “the power cap of the Nightmare World has just been lifted. We still need time to grow stronger, so it’s not advisable to provoke too many enemies right now.”

“I know, I don’t really want to either.” Shen Ye said with a wry smile.

No sooner had he spoken.

Lines of glimmering light scattered from the void, gradually altering the world’s contours until it coalesced into an entirely new world.

A sacred light scattered from the sky.

Shen Ye looked up and saw a towering church in the sky, with countless angels flying back and forth.

“The world has changed.” Shen Ye said.

“This world has many sworn enemies of us undead.” The ghost fire in Micttecaxihuatl’s eyes blazed brighter.

“You go back first, no need to fight them.”

“Alright.”

Shen Ye immediately dismissed the summoned creature.

Micttecaxihuatl vanished with it.

Soon.

An angel descended from the sky, holding a greatsword, and stood opposite Shen Ye.

“Stranger, how did you come to this world?”

The angel asked.

“I was on the ninth floor of the ship, looking for a friend, and accidentally arrived here.” Shen Ye said.

“Who are you looking for?”

“The owner of this emblem.”

The angel looked at the emblem in his hand and shook her head, “Leave our world, you won’t find the person you’re looking for here.”

“I’d like to leave, but based on past experience, it seems I’ll have to wait a bit.” Shen Ye said.

“This is a hidden sacred world. For every five minutes you stay, you will suffer a divine judgment.”

“Judgment?”

“This is it—”

The angel raised her greatsword, and a fierce wave of power suddenly emanated from her.

“Fifteen layers of the Law Realm? No… at least eighteen layers…”

Shen Ye judged.

I can’t beat this.

“Listen to me, I don’t mean any harm, and I’ll be leaving soon, so there’s no need to impose any judgment on me.”

Shen Ye said sincerely.

An increasingly strong killing intent emanated from the angel.

“One minute left.”

The angel hissed.

—It was completely illogical.

Shen Ye sighed and whispered:

“Chatelet.”

Bang.

The void flashed.

A beautiful long-haired woman in a red dress quietly appeared.

She glanced at the angel, and her whole body suddenly exuded a powerful force fluctuation of twenty-something layers of the Law Realm.

The clouds in the sky were scattered by it.

The church and even the steps leading to heaven behind it were all revealed.

The angels, as if facing a formidable enemy, gathered in the sky, exuding a sacred light and forming a massive battle formation.

“Is it an enemy?”

Chatelet asked succinctly.

“No.” Shen Ye said.

“Then why are they pointing swords at you?”

“They say I can’t stay here.”

“Why?”

“This is their world.” Shen Ye said.

It would have been better if he hadn’t said anything; as soon as he did, Chatelet’s expression changed.

She looked at the angels and said,

“First there were twenty-one ultimate creations, then the world, and the world is the mother of all things, and then there are sentient beings.”

“You are nothing but sentient beings, what right do you have to claim this world as yours?”

A grand and majestic voice came from the church:

“Because we discovered this world! We built it!”

“Just because you discovered it makes it yours? Then what if I discovered you?” Chatelet sneered.

“Using such absurd logic to make things difficult for my boyfriend—”

“Damn it!”

No sooner had she spoken.

Two lines of crimson small characters suddenly appeared before Shen Ye’s eyes:

“The companion you summoned possesses a powerful, rare, unique, and world-exclusive profession.”

“Said companion is releasing a professional skill.”

Shen Ye was startled.

Chatelet had an advanced and powerful profession, which he knew very well.

However.

He had never seen any profession that generated such immense power, even before the skill was released.

Chatelet’s hand gesture was already formed.

She declared loudly, “Kneel down and apologize! Otherwise, I’ll transmigrate three thousand angels every minute until all living beings in this world are transmogrified!”

Black and red light intertwined into fire in her hands.

The fire ignited a dazzling light that illuminated all the buildings and all the angels in every direction.

Everything was red.

At the same time, faint light gathered into lines of small characters before Shen Ye’s eyes:

“During this battle, your companion kept nothing hidden from you.”

“Therefore, the battle details are extracted as follows:”

“Chatelet released her professional skill: Shadow Reincarnation Deliverance Technique.”

“Description:”

“Regardless of whether the opponent is in a state of life or death, immediately transmigrate the opponent with all negative fundamental forces, sending them straight to reincarnation, and can specify the species of rebirth.”

All the small characters flashed and disappeared.

Chatelet’s voice, tinged with ill intent, echoed coldly throughout the world:

“Thirty seconds left.”

“If you don’t change your rules, I will make you angels reincarnate one by one, reborn as demons.”

“Want to try?”

There was no need to wait—

The majestic voice from the church suddenly became more personal:

“Oh dear, we made a mistake.”

“We thought it was an undead from hell, which is our sworn enemy, so we naturally fought them regardless of life or death.”

“The two handsome men and beautiful women are genuine humans, and good people with noble morals and pure souls.”

“I apologize. I offer my regrets, and please don’t mind.”

No sooner had she spoken, the angels no longer maintained their battle formation.

These angels all revealed sacred and peaceful smiles, flying down from the sky and placing a wreath on Shen Ye’s head.

“Handsome, please persuade your girlfriend. We truly didn’t mean to oppose you two.”

The angel said in a fawning tone.

Shen Ye shrugged, looking at Chatelet.

Chatelet glanced at him.

“This thing is alright, you decide.” She communicated telepathically.

Shen Ye looked up at the wreath of flowers above his head.

It floated above his head, releasing a faint light that enveloped Shen Ye in a floral scent.

“Sacred Wreath.”

“Description: A heavenly wreath woven from seven sacred flowers, capable of saving your life seven times.”

Good stuff!

This thing is definitely valuable.

Shen Ye lightly coughed, then said, “Since they have apologized earnestly and sincerely, let us show great compassion and forgive them.”

“But remember, there won’t be a next time.”

“There definitely won’t be a next time,” the angel promised.

Seeing Shen Ye nod, Chatelet waved her hand, retracting her professional skill.

The angels, as if granted a great pardon, all breathed a sigh of relief.

“By the way, have you seen this emblem?”

Shen Ye asked the angel.

“This is not a creation of our world, we have never seen it.” The angel said.

As soon as she spoke.

Light and shadow descended from the sky.

The entire world suddenly disappeared, and then, a brand new world quietly emerged.

“I’m not doing this anymore—I don’t know how long it’s going to take—”

Shen Ye grabbed Chatelet and pushed open a celestial gate.

The two returned to the ninth floor of the ship’s cabin.

“What was going on just now?”

Chatelet asked with a smile, her face a little red.

Shen Ye, with the halo on his head, actually had a sense of holiness.

She really wanted to give him a good kiss.

Unfortunately, the situation here was unclear, so it was inconvenient to be intimate with him.

Shen Ye recounted the events.

Chatelet nodded, saying happily:

“You were right to come to me. The light that formed the world just now indeed has a problem. As long as a professional can utilize that light, they will find the truth.”

“—I remember that the ‘Lord of Nothingness’ could create a mirror world back then.” Shen Ye said.

“That’s right, the ‘Lord of Nothingness’ indeed possesses such power, and can still utilize the light from this layer.” Chatelet said.

“My mission is to find a woman on this floor—don’t glare at me, it’s a mission—seriously, it’s for another man’s love—I guess you can still cast a mirror world.”

“I’ve already leveled up, I can’t cast the mirror world anymore.”

Shen Ye sighed in disappointment.

Forget it, I’ll figure out another way.

Chatelet’s beautiful eyes darted around, carefully examining the bead curtains, and she continued:

“This is an extremely rigorous selection.”

“Many professionals, even if they sense something is wrong here, cannot find the entrance because their profession isn’t powerful enough for this level of interaction.”

“Shen Ye, if you hadn’t given up ‘Lord of Nothingness’ back then, you could have used the light emitted by these diamonds, reflected it with a mirror, and then discovered the secret here.”

“Of course, now the two professions ‘Lord of Nothingness’ and ‘Lord of Living Souls’ have been merged by me into a completely new, unique profession.”

“This is what you gave to me.”

“The power of the new profession can also discover the secrets here, just like this—”

Her hand pressed into the void.

Instantly.

Amidst the countless diamond lights, the imperceptible shadow gradually expanded, transforming into a bottomless cave.

Shen Ye hesitated, then pointed to the cave.

Chatelet said with a smile:

“The countless lights here intertwine to form illusory passages, which can lead to the myriad worlds hidden within this ship.”

“And my shadow passage can reach every hidden world.”

“Shadow Passage?” Shen Ye repeated.

“Yes, I merged ‘Lord of Living Souls’ and ‘Lord of Nothingness’ to advance to a new, unique profession called ‘Shadow Divine Mother’.”

Chatelet didn’t hide anything from him, explaining:

“This profession is very complex. It would take three days and three nights to explain its powers in detail, but to summarize, it’s just eight words—”

“Devour all, manifest all.”

Seeing that Shen Ye was a little confused, she simply waved a shadow to envelop him.

And then—

“Door.”

Chatelet called out softly.

Before her, a door quietly appeared.

“Gate to Heaven!”

Shen Ye gasped.

“That’s right, you were devoured by my shadow, so I can manifest your power—this door doesn’t belong to me, but I can still use it.”

“Of course, there are other wonderful uses.”

Chatelet withdrew the shadow that enveloped Shen Ye.

Instantly.

The door also disappeared.

“How marvelous, I never imagined there was such a profession.” Shen Ye praised.

Chatelet opened her mouth and said, “My shadow covers all the diamond bead curtains here, so their power can be used by me.”

“Tell me, which world do you want to go to?”

“I don’t know, I just know to look for a woman—that woman recognizes this emblem on my chest.” Shen Ye said.

“There are eight thousand eight hundred worlds here, Shen Ye.” Chatelet sighed.

“Huh? So many worlds! How am I supposed to find her then… no, I have to go ask that guy.”

Shen Ye’s voice suddenly faltered again.

The Lord of All Eras had been imprisoned for so long.

How could he know where that woman went back then?

If he knew, he would have told him already!

—After all, he could tell that the Lord truly wanted to save her.

“This is really troublesome. It looks like I’ll have to search for her world by world.” Shen Ye said.

“It’s not that troublesome, I’ll help you find her.”

Chatelet formed a seal with her hands and softly called out:

“Law Realm Descent – One Person, Ten Thousand Lives.”

In the void before her, humanoid afterimages flashed continuously, darting into the bottomless cave.

Cave.

There were 8,800 branching paths, leading to 8,800 corresponding hidden worlds.

Chatelet, however, released 88,000 clones, with several of her clones descending into each world.

They held portraits of the emblem and directly publicized them in various hidden worlds, seeking anyone who knew of the emblem’s existence.

They kept searching like this.

Until several hours later, the mining operation in the Lode of Truth once again elevated Shen Ye’s strength by another level.

Chatelet finally spoke:

“The woman has been found.”

“Then let’s go see her at once,” Shen Ye said.

“But there’s one problem.”

“What?”

“That world requires a profession like mine to enter. If your profession isn’t unique enough, you won’t be able to get in.”

“I’ll use the door ability.”

“You’d be repelled the moment you entered. It’s related to the rules of power, Shen Ye. You’d better improve your profession, or switch to a higher-level one.”

Chatelet said sincerely.

Shen Ye was slightly stunned.

My current profession is—

Netherworld Spirit Envoy.

This is a combat profession of the Immortal Kingdom.

—It’s been a long time since I’ve advanced my profession.

To advance an Immortal Kingdom profession, there were corresponding methods, if I recall correctly…

Shen Ye took a deep breath, closed his eyes slightly, and began to perceive his Dharma Aspect.

Dharma Aspect—

Supreme Unity Derivation of Fate, Saving from Suffering, Dream Divine Palace.

The Dharma Aspect formed by the three techniques had remained at this level.

Because the Heaven-Shaking Technique required very high all-attributes, the Heaven-Blending Technique was shared with Chatelet, and the Heaven-Reaching Technique was just beginning to take shape—

The progress of each technique varied.

So the Dharma Aspect had never been upgraded.

And he was accustomed to fighting with terms.

So the advancement of his profession had been neglected and not continuously pursued.

At this moment, Shen Ye finally calmed his mind and began to seriously consider this matter.

Under his perception, the Dharma Aspect slowly changed.

Several lines of faint light characters popped up:

“Further construct your Immortal Kingdom Dharma Aspect, allowing the Supreme Unity Derivation of Fate, Saving from Suffering, Dream Divine Palace to evolve to a higher rank, thereby enhancing your Immortal Kingdom profession.”

“—The unification of the three techniques can achieve a Dharma Aspect never before seen.”

“Please cherish it.”
