Gates of the Myriad Realms Chapter 490

The knife.

Blood dripped steadily from the blade.

At this moment, the Night Rain Blade had completely changed from before.

It was like a poisoned bone blade, waving, emitting a faint green glow in the void.

“Rain Poison.”

“Temporary transformation weapon, Truth Tier Five.”

“Description: Under the special dharma of the Poisonous Rain, destructive toxins destroy all living beings’ bodies.”

“—Toxic.”

“—It can only reach this power when it transforms into a knife!”

Shen Ye rolled on the ground, wiped a handful of blood, and stood up.

In the sky.

The dragon held its stomach, its figure flickered, and it transformed back into the red-robed man, quickly reciting healing spells.

This place was already nearly a hundred kilometers away from the Demonic Hall, a desolate wilderness covered with broken stones.

“Who are you exactly?”

The red-robed man landed, standing opposite Shen Ye, looking at him with surprise and uncertainty.

“The one who kills you.”

Shen Ye said.

He raised the Rain Poison Blade in his hand, feeling the power of Truth Tier Five on it, and his confidence suddenly increased.

A dragon’s defense was extraordinary.

Even attacks of the same tier could not harm them.

Unless you reached a higher truth tier—

You had to completely suppress them!

The red-robed man sneered, saying coldly:

“Fool… Although I was stopped a few times when my power was unsealed just now, it’s already done now.”

“Your knife couldn’t cut through my defense before, and it can’t now.”

“—I have reached Truth Tier Seven!”

While he was speaking, Shen Ye lowered his head and looked at the fate line on his palm.

Fighting until now, he had a realization.

—Battle Dance Diva is really useful.

Under the influence of this “pink, rare, unique” keyword, any ability would be increased by 1 tier.

He had already tried it just now.

Now—

Under his gaze, faint light appeared as small words before his eyes:

“Under the influence of ‘Battle Dance Diva’, your fundamental truth ‘Destiny Divination’ has been upgraded by one tier, and its effect is further manifested in reality.”

The small words disappeared.

The two entangled lines of fate on his hand turned into a kind of “warning”, appearing in Shen Ye’s mind.

“Among all paths of destiny, the two best current choices are:”

“1. Turn around and run;”

“2. Trick it, then turn around and run.”

“Path 2 is better than path 1, but requires your effort.”

Shen Ye: “…”

He was very pleased to see “Destiny Divination” develop to the point where it could assist in life choices.

This alone made one thing clear—

After this dragon unsealed its power, it was no longer an opponent that could be defeated.

But.

You told me to trick it?

How to trick it?

There was no hint about that.

Shen Ye simply whistled into the void, then put the Rain Poison Blade behind his back.

Boiling electronic music suddenly sounded.

BGM!

Helmet, belt, long boots, chainmail, and other six pieces of equipment were put on Shen Ye one by one.

This was good for one thing—

When the BGM sounded, Shen Ye could calmly put on his battle armor.

After he finished dressing, the BGM disappeared, and Shen Ye was once again protected by the “Multi-Universal Lord’s Battle Armor” set of Truth Tier Twelve.

Shen Ye’s gaze shifted slightly, looking into the void:

“The opponent’s dragon race pupil technique is on par with the BGM, their truth powers cancel each other out.”

“The opponent used the Dragon Blood Pupil Technique: Crush, but it was suppressed by your battle armor set!”

The BGM blocked it for a moment, then the battle armor suppressed the opponent’s attack!

The two lines of faint words withdrew.

“You dragons also like to sneak attack?”

Shen Ye asked unhappily.

The red-robed man did not answer, but instead said:

“I initially thought entering the mortal world was meaningless, and even the Queen Mother was barely worthy of me, but you made me find the joy of slaughter.”

He tore open his upper garment, only to see the wound on his stomach gradually healing.

“Now I’m going to play seriously.”

As he spoke, his muscles continuously squirmed and swelled, his figure gradually growing, turning into a giant over fifty meters tall.

“You just mentioned the Queen Mother? What is that? And why is she barely worthy of you?” Shen Ye asked.

The giant spewed out plumes of white mist, and said in an extremely arrogant tone:

“Trash, you don’t even know this, but I don’t need to tell you.”

“You just need to know that everything here is just a stepping stone for me, and your flesh and blood will eventually become my food.”

Shen Ye, however, said seriously: “Listen, although I don’t know who the Queen Mother is, but for her sake—”

The giant interrupted him: “Don’t use her name to show off. You are just a backup, and she will eventually become my slave.”

Bullseye.

You can remain silent, but everything you say today will be used as evidence in court!

Shen Ye took out his phone and uploaded the video he just took to the internet.

The Queen Mother was now disguised as a mortal girl, organizing selections in a human city.

He believed this video would be helpful to her.

But he had to be quick!

Shen Ye stepped back a few paces, focusing his eyes on the phone.

Ding.

A beautiful female voice sounded:

“Payment successful.”

“Are you sure you want to use all the Star Jade to support your latest work?”

“Confirmed!” Shen Ye said.

“Your work has risen by over 300 ranks, currently

ranked first, but it will only last for half an hour.”

Half an hour!

That was enough.

Now he just hoped that the Queen Mother could see it as soon as possible!

“What are you doing?”

The giant looked at Shen Ye, somewhat unable to understand his actions.

Shen Ye didn’t answer, merely paying attention to the lines of faint words appearing in the void:

“Successfully completed ‘trick it’, you have embarked on the current optimal path of destiny.”

“Next, please ‘turn around and run’!”

“Today’s destiny divination has ended. Before tomorrow arrives, you cannot once again pry into the secrets of destiny.”

“—Destiny cannot be frequently pried into, otherwise, an extremely cruel price will inevitably be paid.”

Good, very spirited!

Although it’s only once a day, I love this kind of “assisted driving” life!

Shen Ye coughed lightly, puffed out his chest, and looked at the giant opposite him:

“Have you ever seen a move that descends from the sky?”

“Are you going to use your ultimate move?” the giant asked.

“Exactly.”

Shen Ye leaped up, soaring into the sky, his aura becoming even more astonishing.

The giant narrowed its eyes and muttered:

“Very well, I will crush you at your most confident moment, and let you know what true despair is.”

It struck a pose in place and began to gather its full power.

“Mortal… your fate is sealed!”

The giant raised its head, staring at the tiny figure in the sky.

The figure flew upwards.

The figure flew higher and higher.

The figure entered the clouds.

—Gone!???

“Ran away? No… I completely overpower him in all attributes. Even with spatial teleportation techniques, I’m confident I could rush up and kill him before the technique is completed!”

“It must be invisibility.”

The giant muttered under its breath.

One breath.

Two breaths.

Three breaths.

Its expression slowly froze.

Choosing to meet force with force, to shatter the opponent’s strongest move, was merely its way of avenging its belly being cut open earlier.

But.

The other person ran away.

It had clearly locked onto his aura, and if there was any sign of teleportation or escape, it could immediately rush to him and completely tear him apart.

—How did he get away?

The giant was silent for a few breaths, then turned its head and looked in the direction of the Demonic Hall.

Go there.

Kill the remaining few.

Perhaps that guy also returned to the Demonic Hall.

Humans care a great deal about their companions, so perhaps if it hurried, everything would still be in time!

The giant was about to move when a figure flew down from the sky.

—He didn’t leave?

The giant froze again, its gaze fixed on the figure flying closer.

It was a woman.

A woman.

Quite young, perhaps only existing in this world for a little over a decade.

Actually, this area had already been sealed off by its aura.

The monsters in the wilderness, sensing its aura, would definitely not come near.

Only that guy from before, disappeared silently, and then reappeared silently as a woman.

Turned into a woman…

What was the point?

Perhaps some moves had to be released in the form of a human female?

The girl landed, and asked expressionlessly:

“Are you that dragon?”

“Hmm? You’re not the person from before?” the giant asked.

“Are you that dragon?” the girl asked again.

“I am—but I must say, no matter who you are, the only outcome for standing up for him now is to be eaten by me,” the giant said.

It glanced at the girl before it, losing some interest:

“Wet behind the ears, go back. Let him fight me instead?”

“Really? He escaped from you, and you didn’t even notice—that’s quite a feat, it seems I need to reconsider my choice of candidates.” The girl pondered.

At the same time, a crisp clanging sound rang out before the girl.

—Dragon Race Pupil Technique: Crush!

The dragon’s pupil technique failed to even get close.

“I am a human professional who believes in the Empress Bee, and you? Why are you attacking her servants?”

The girl looked at the giant calmly and asked.

“Is that so?” The giant showed a malicious expression, “Your god invited me to kill all of you, hahaha.”

“Don’t worry, not only will you all die, but your god will also become my slave.”

“Although I’m not very satisfied with her, having an ultimate creation is better than nothing—”

“Now, die!”

The giant suddenly appeared behind the girl, its raised fist powerfully smashing down.

—This blow was enough to shatter the earth!

The girl had remained calm until the other party said, “Your god will also become my slave,” which made her expression change.

Thud.

A dull thud.

Before the giant could see what happened, it was sent flying, smashing many stones along the way and leaving deep drag marks on the ground.

It scrambled to its feet, looking at the girl in disbelief.

“Who are you?”

The giant demanded.

The girl shook her head and said, “Your arrogance has blinded you—I merely disguised myself, and you couldn’t recognize me.”

“How disappointing.”

“Die.”

…

On the other side.

The Gate to Heaven opened.

Shen Ye appeared in the ruins of the Demonic Hall.

He rushed frantically, reaching the cliff again, and peered down.

Below the cliff.

On the rocks surrounded by magma, there was no one—

“Here.”

A voice suddenly sounded in his ear.

It was Nangong Sirui!

Shen Ye quickly responded: “Where are you all?”

“Look to your lower left, beside that protruding black stone, we’ve dug a hole, concealed by an illusion outside, just come down.” Nangong Sirui’s voice sounded.

Shen Ye was about to speak when a thought suddenly occurred to him.

They were safe here.

And he might soon have to face the Empress Bee.

Why involve them!

“Okay, you guys stay put and wait for rescue. I’ll go check on that dragon’s situation.” Shen Ye said.

“Did Brother Ye not kill that dragon?” Zhang Xiaoyi asked curiously.

“Kill the dragon? Are you kidding me? It’s a miracle I’m still alive.” Shen Ye chuckled.

He waved at the spot where the two were, then jumped down.

Thud.

Shen Ye landed directly at the bottom of the cliff, leaving deep cracks on the flat rock.

After leaving this mark, he flew towards the depths of the magma.

In the map given by the dwarf demons—

Deep within these magma rivers was a small path leading to other underground caves, and there was even a path that led directly to the underground kingdom.

Shen Ye flew along the magma river, entering a dead end.

He tapped around on the rock wall and then punched through a weak section, revealing a long, winding underground secret passage.

At this moment, lines of faint letters quietly appeared:

“The death of a dragon is an extremely important historical event.”

“You participated in this significant event and played a leading role, thus gaining recognition from the law realm.”

“This event is about to conclude.”

“After its conclusion, you will receive corresponding title—”

“If you are still alive, that is.”

Shen Ye was deeply shaken.

What?

That dragon was dead?

It was at least Truth Tier Seven or Eight—

Who killed it?

The answer was on the tip of his tongue.

It seemed the video had worked, but there was a significant loophole here.

How did Shen Ye escape from a Truth Tier Seven or Eight dragon and survive?

In a flash of lightning.

Shen Ye shouted “Big Skeleton, transform!”, and immediately began to dig.

After digging the pit.

The bone knife named “Rain Poison” lay before Shen Ye, and he shook it forcefully.

Crack, crack—

The bone knife was covered in cracks, seemingly about to shatter.

Shen Ye carefully placed the knife in the pit, clasped his hands together, sighed, and began to brew his emotions.

The void flashed.

A young girl floated silently nearby, coldly watching the scene before her.

Su Su.

—Or rather, to address her directly as:

Empress Bee.

The girl looked at the broken knife in the pit, then gazed at Shen Ye.

Shen Ye, with a solemn and sorrowful expression, said:

“Today, I am here to mourn my weapon. It was brave and resilient, powerful and astute.”

His voice began to tremble:

“It saved my life.”

“That vicious dragon would never have imagined that a knife could possess such venom, capable of sacrificing its life for its master.”

“My beloved knife…”

“One day, I will avenge you!”

“Rest in peace.”

Having said that.

Shen Ye began to bury the knife.

The girl glanced at the shattered long saber.

A Truth Tier five long saber.

Possessing poisonous abilities.

And some other powers.

But the saber was broken.

If there was a saber spirit, it was already dead and could never be revived.

—That makes sense.

That dragon usually roamed the mortal world with Truth Tier four strength.

This saber, however, was Truth Tier five.

It was understandable that the saber could contend with the dragon for a while or two.

As long as this young man’s swordsmanship was truly that high.

According to records, he obtained a “Long Hate” swordsmanship and even improved it.

To be able to improve swordsmanship of that caliber.

His swordsmanship attainments must be good.

As for—

When that dragon got serious, intending to crush this human youth with all its might—

The saber naturally shattered.

The girl’s gaze was fixed on the saber.

The saber was buried in the dirt, indistinct, but definitely completely destroyed.

It was dead.

She knew she couldn’t be wrong about that.

A Truth Tier treasure saber, probably having exhausted its last strength, helped its master escape danger.

And its master—

The girl scrutinized Shen Ye.

Shen Ye was a genuine Realm of Law Tier Seventeen.

The current question was—

With such a realm, such a youth, how could he attract a Truth Tier long saber to willingly sacrifice itself for him?

While the girl was thinking, she saw Shen Ye stand up from the ground and walk towards the depths of the secret passage.

After a few steps.

In the secret passage ahead.

A poisonous snake with colorful patterns suddenly appeared.

The poisonous snake also noticed Shen Ye, immediately alertly raised its body, and flicked its tongue at him.

“Do you know how to get out?”

Shen Ye asked.

The poisonous snake hesitated for a moment, then poked its head towards Shen Ye’s back.

“Thanks for the directions.”

Shen Ye waved at the poisonous snake, turned around, and walked back.

He couldn’t see the girl, but he brushed past her.

The girl fell silent for a moment.

She suddenly turned around again and looked at the top of Shen Ye’s head—

Above him, the title “Top Idol Max” was radiating an unparalleled affinity.

…So that’s how it is.

Found the answer.

His affinity had almost reached its peak.

—All beings and things were willing to be used by him.

That was quite unexpected!

The killing intent deep in the girl’s eyes receded, and a look of hesitation appeared on her face.

“I didn’t expect to find an idol who’s popular everywhere to be my master…”

“Never mind… I’ll observe a bit more…”

She murmured, her figure flashed, and she disappeared from the spot.

Until this moment—

Lines of faint words suddenly appeared before Shen Ye’s eyes:

“This historical event has completely concluded.”

“You led everything in this event and preserved your life at the last moment.”

“For this excellent performance, the law realm grants you a new title:”

“Mastermind.”

“A primordial title, a hidden title of ‘Dragon Slayer,’ a secret name never before seen.”
