Gates of the Myriad Realms Chapter 470

The connecting stairs between the eighth and ninth floors.

Shen Ye and Charlotte sat on the steps.

—This place, being between two floors, was not subject to the trials of the floors above and below, making it an excellent temporary resting spot.

Shen Ye handed a can of beverage to Charlotte and glanced at the Little Western Paradise.

The bronze figures and the doppelgangers were still mining.

The flow rate of time remained steadily at “three months to one day,” so the leveling efficiency was still very high.

He had now reached the thirteenth stage of the Dharma Realm.

As for his profession—

Once his attributes were strong enough, the power of the three arts would also increase.

The Dharma Aspect would naturally grow.

The Immortal Kingdom profession would also be promoted accordingly.

None of this was a problem.

However—

All of this required time.

That’s right.

He simply needed time.

Shen Ye thought to himself.

Charlotte took a sip of her drink, and her eyes reflected his thoughtful expression. With a turn of her mind, she understood.

“Do you remember why I took the Hun Tian Art when I left the Death Star?” Charlotte asked.

“I remember,” Shen Ye said casually, “You thought I was weak at the time, and you were afraid that others would see that I possessed one of the three arts, which would lead to trouble.”

“Do you hate me?” Charlotte asked.

“How could I?” Shen Ye laughed. “You were right. If I had held onto the Hun Tian Art back then, it might have been taken by someone long ago.”

Charlotte smiled sweetly, formed a hand seal with one hand, and pointed at Shen Ye’s brow, saying:

“The Hun Tian Art agreed to come with me back then for the same reason.”

“But now, times have changed—”

“You’ve been proving yourself, and you’ve even become a gatekeeper.”

“Hun Tian Art’s spirit and I both agree that it would be foolish not to return the power to you at this moment.”

“Return it to me?” Shen Ye was a little confused.

“Isn’t it obvious? The Hun Tian Art reappeared because you found it—you are its true owner.”

“Plus, I’ve been practicing this art regularly during this time, gaining some insights and techniques for its application.”

“—I return it all to you, Baxter!”

As Charlotte spoke, the hand seal in her hand erupted with an extremely strong buzzing sound.

In an instant.

A surging wave of energy spread in all directions.

Shen Ye’s hair was blown back, revealing the gradually appearing star-like light spot on his smooth forehead.

A line of faint words quietly emerged:

“Your Hun Tian Art has returned.”

After a breath.

Countless memories flooded Shen Ye’s mind.

From the moment he awoke, hovering between life and death, facing countless difficulties and dangers, and finally, getting ahead of all his enemies to be the first to discover the Hun Tian Art.

He had obtained the Hun Tian Art.

Yes.

In fact, from the very beginning, the one who truly won the Hun Tian Art was himself!

But why was Charlotte able to take it away?

Among the layers of memory images, one image quietly appeared.

It was just before he and Charlotte separated.

A girl with pigtails appeared before Charlotte.

“Hello, Charlotte, I am the spirit of the Hun Tian Art. You must take me away immediately, or the fluctuations of my emergence will attract countless covetous individuals,” the girl said.

“What’s that got to do with me?” Charlotte said.

“If you don’t take me away,” the pigtail girl said expressionlessly, “your man will die, and even his soul will be captured and his memories continuously extracted.”

“Unless you take his place and escape with me, only then will he be safe.”

“But in that case, all the danger will fall upon you.”

“Are you willing?”

Charlotte did not respond.

But the next second.

She appeared in hell, bidding farewell to Shen Ye.

Then she took the Hun Tian Art.

Countless subsequent memory images flickered, all showing her struggling to survive amidst various pursuits and blockades.

Shen Ye opened his eyes and looked at Charlotte.

Charlotte met his gaze and smiled slightly:

“There’s no need to feel guilty. Isn’t it normal for us to do things for each other?”

“Besides, no one ever caught me, and my power kept growing.”

She touched Shen Ye’s face with her hand.

Shen Ye, however, emitted strange fluctuations.

This was the phenomenon of the three arts unifying.

They seemed to possess intelligence, as they immediately concealed the power fluctuations of their fusion as soon as they emerged.

“This transfer of martial arts and power will make me very tired. I’m going to rest now. As for the information about that world, it’s already in your memory.”

Charlotte said, somewhat fatigued.

“Go rest,” Shen Ye said softly.

“Mmm, don’t you dare die, or I’ll never forgive you.”

“Don’t worry.”

Charlotte smiled, and her figure suddenly vanished.

She had returned to the Death Star.

On the stairs.

Only Shen Ye remained.

He silently felt the power of the three arts.

Especially the Hun Tian Art.

At this moment.

It had finally returned to its rightful owner!

The art’s power was continuously strengthening, causing everything about Shen Ye to change accordingly.

Shen Ye instinctively looked towards his Dharma Aspect.

He saw the Dharma Aspect constantly changing.

An unprecedented opportunity arose—

“Your Dharma Aspect is composed of the three arts.”

“At this moment, one of the arts, named ‘Hun Tian,’ has fully returned to its place.”

“Although you cannot yet unleash its full power, your Dharma Aspect has already begun to strengthen.”

“The current Dharma Aspect has evolved into:”

“Yin and Yang Two Poles, Rescuing Sufferers and Transcending Calamities, Life-Securing Divine Mountain.”

“Description: You can simultaneously experience two completely different destinies, escaping danger in all critical situations, jumping to another destiny line, moving back and forth between two lines, securing your life and body, and rescuing sufferers and transcending calamities;”

“Additionally.”

“You can now choose one item from within your Dharma Aspect and transform it into a True Creation.”

“Or you can ascend to a new Immortal Kingdom profession.”

“Please choose!”

Shen Ye instinctively wanted to choose “Transform True Creation.”

Because once the Four Kings were transformed into True Creations, they would be able to mine in the Little Western Paradise.

Six people mining together.

—The leveling speed would increase even faster!

But in the depths of his being, Shen Ye suddenly felt an intuition.

—Or rather, because he had experienced too many things, he had some unique insights into choosing combat strategies and judging the trend of events.

At this moment.

The Ultimate Creation and the true seventeenth-tier grandmaster were engaged in a life-and-death struggle.

The White Night Spirit King was also constantly catching up, aiming to be the first to reach the twenty-first floor, claim the True Contract, and become the master of this Ultimate Creation.

The situation was precarious!

He could remain in a stable state temporarily because he was cautious enough.

But caution alone was not enough.

He had to seize the initiative in the grand scheme of things!

—The Four Kings could be transformed into True Creations a little later.

The urgent task at hand was to find the woman related to the Final Lord of All Eras.

And he was not yet qualified.

Because he simply couldn’t enter her world.

“I choose to advance to a new Immortal Kingdom profession.”

Shen Ye made his decision.

A peculiar fluctuation emanated from the Dharma Aspect, enveloping his entire body.

At this moment.

His profession finally began to change.

In the void, faint words continuously appeared before his eyes:

“This enhancement of your Dharma Aspect has made the Immortal Kingdom more substantial and concrete, its power surpassing any of the three-art civilizations that have appeared in history.”

“—Because this is a Dharma Aspect born from the unification of the three arts, true and incorruptible.”

“Congratulations.”

“You have acquired a new profession:”

“Mountain God.”

“Support profession.”

“Total of three profession skills, as follows;”

“1. Self-Transformation at Will: You have inherited a variant power of the Grand Unity Manifestation and Deliverance Dream Divine Palace, which you can apply to others, allowing them to return to the moment they were imbued by you upon death;”

“2. Mandala Blessing: When casting the three arts, the attribute requirements for your main body are reduced by thirty percent, and the power of the arts is increased by thirty percent.”

“3. Thought-Guided Travel: Sense the obsessions of all sentient beings and directly teleport to their side based on the objects of their attachment.”

—This profession was somewhat beyond Shen Ye’s expectations.

It truly felt like being an “immortal.”

However, could it allow him to travel to the world where that woman resided?

“Object of attachment”…

Wasn’t that the badge that the Lord of all eras had taken out?

Shen Ye removed the badge from his chest, laid it in his palm, and silently activated his profession skill, “Thought-Guided Travel.”

In an instant.

He sensed a world.

Endless battles raged throughout the entire world.

Various monsters were terrifyingly fierce, and there were also uncontrollable divine weapons, countless awakened art spirits, afflicting sentient beings.

—What a terrifying place this was!

Shen Ye abruptly cut off the connection, panting for a moment before recovering.

No.

That place was too dangerous.

Once he entered it, he would face endless battles, without even a moment’s rest.

And his current strength was only at the thirteenth level of the Dharma Realm.

He could go there now.

—But what would he do once he got there?

Shen Ye fell into deep thought.

Suddenly.

A commotion came from below the stairs.

—Several professionals had broken through the trials of the eighth floor and were heading towards the ninth floor.

“It’s you?”

Seeing Shen Ye, they all exclaimed in unison.

A flash of inspiration suddenly crossed Shen Ye’s mind.

“Everyone, I’ve been waiting for you here,” he said.

“Waiting for us? Aren’t you a neutral party? Even the Ultimate Creation said so.”

Someone probed.

“That’s right, I will never participate in any trials, maintaining complete neutrality, but—”

“I can do some business with you all!”

Shen Ye paused, then continued:

“The higher you go, the more dangerous it becomes, adventurers. Do you want to save your progress with me?”

“Save progress?” the crowd exclaimed in unison.

“Exactly —”

Shen Ye randomly selected a professional and used the Mountain God’s professional skill, “Self-Transformation at Will.”

“Relax, the purpose of this art is that when you die, you will revive at this very moment, right before me.”

He explained.

The professional was also a gatekeeper. After a brief sensation, he showed a joyful expression and asked:

“Indeed, but what price must be paid for such a saved resurrection?”

Shen Ye patiently explained:

“It’s very simple—I need some defensive treasures—or those self-activating spells, one-time traps, and so on.”

“Any defensive or offensive treasures that don’t require me to expend power can be exchanged for the qualification for a saved resurrection here.”

“Friends, time is money. If you’re willing to trade with me, please bring out your treasures.”

Everyone exchanged glances.

“Ridiculous, I don’t need any of that from you,” one professional said, then headed upstairs.

Shen Ye maintained his smile, seemingly unconcerned.

After all—

Among the strong cultivators who could reach this floor, the majority were intelligent and cautious.

“I’ll trade with you.”

The gatekeeper from earlier said in a deep voice, “Speaking of one-time use items, I do have some good stuff.”

Shen Ye smiled:

“Then you can keep the ‘save’ art on you—a pleasant trade for us.”
