Gates of the Myriad Realms Chapter 508
byThe battle stopped in an instant.
The seventeenth-tier truth expert was still resisting the attack of the Chaos Ark.
Lan Xi also held arcane arts and, together with Shen Ye, unleashed the Heaven-Shaking Art.
However.
When the White Night Spirit King was pierced through, revealing its虚无 internal emptiness, no one attacked again.
“Be careful,” the seventeenth-tier truth expert shouted.
“Prepare to escape,” Charlotte’s voice transmitted.
“Buzz—” The Chaos Ark also let out a long, ceasefire sound.
Shen Ye couldn’t help but feel a little surprised.
Why was everyone so vigilant?
He looked at the White Night Spirit King, only to see that the puppet was now suspended in mid-air by countless threads.
It was completely wrapped in threads, spinning faster and faster in the air, emitting a whistling sound.
As it spun, the threads increasingly entangled it, gradually forming a new being.
—This was a black spider.
Its body was adorned with intricate pale patterns that formed a human-faced visage, silently gazing at Shen Ye and the seventeenth-tier truth expert.
A chanting voice echoed in the void:
“It’s unexpected that the multilayered universe could rise again after that great war.”
“It’s a pity—”
“The master you found, he ruined my plans, he deserves to die.”
“And you, who have suffered in the years for so long, achieving the power of the seventeenth-tier truth, but unable to obtain an ultimate creation—”
“You are not qualified to participate in future history.”
“You too shall die!”
As soon as the words fell.
Charlotte’s voice softened, and her personality switched to Lan Xi:
“Full power!”
Shen Ye naturally knew what she was talking about.
Their seal arts moved simultaneously, unleashing that ultimate art towards the White Night Spirit King.
Unlike the previous attack—
This time.
Lan Xi said the words “full power.”
Shen Ye unhesitatingly activated his Emperor Species bloodline, increasing all his attributes by 200 points.
The All-Heavenly Spiritual Radiance, his trump card, once again enveloped his entire body.
—Further increasing basic attributes, attack, and defense by 7 times.
At this instant, Shen Ye’s strength reached a level he had never before achieved.
Strictly speaking—
This was already utilizing the power of the All-Heavenly Art!
—No.
With such basic attributes, it had already reached the level of utilizing the second and third arts!
“Shake the Heavens.”
Shen Ye whispered.
The invisible power of the Heaven-Shaking Art surged forth from the seal art, rushing towards the mutated White Night Spirit King, but halfway, it collided with something.
Boom—
The entire void transformed into a black river.
The Heaven-Shaking Art struck the void, exposing the river hidden within, which instantly enveloped the Chaos Ark.
The black river surged, splashing thousands of waves.
“Be careful, don’t let this water touch you, its power surpasses everything!”
The seventeenth-tier truth expert shouted.
He was seen pulling a heavy tower shield from the void and holding it in front of him.
Black water droplets splashed towards it.
The tower shield immediately developed dense holes, like a honeycomb.
—The shield couldn’t block the black water!
The expert cried out, then took out another shield embedded with countless jewels, continuing to block the swirling black water droplets.
Shen Ye also came to his senses.
The enemy’s move was truly brilliant.
If he didn’t attack, he could only take a hit.
But if he attacked, the river would immediately appear, and his own moves would, in turn, activate the countless black waters in the river, forming an impenetrable attack in the void.
“Don’t touch that water, it’s the second-ranked ultimate creation.”
Charlotte’s voice carried a hint of tension.
Shen Ye’s heart tightened.
Second-ranked?
Wouldn’t that be even stronger than the Chaos Ark?
“Manifestation of the Dharma — One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones.”
Shen Ye moved his hand seals, and a series of illusory figures immediately appeared behind him.
The young girl sat upon a lotus throne, instantly dividing into three lotus platforms, each with an identical woman seated upon it, forming a Heaven, Earth, and Man formation, clustered around Shen Ye.
Under the shroud of this Dharma manifestation, the endless black water droplets could not land on Shen Ye.
Lan Xi, Pe’a Suo, Annie!
Lan Xi sat in the center, holding the Heaven-Shaking Art.
“Watch for the right moment, Shen Ye, you can use the All-Universe Art at any time.”
Pe’a Suo said, pinching her fingers into a seal.
Her eyes were emerald green, and her hair was dark, completely different from Lan Xi.
“The full power of the All-Heavenly Art cannot be unleashed yet, but it can be used against a single target,” Annie also said.
Faint light and shadows shimmered around her body, manifesting countless enigmatic presences in the void.
Everything was ready.
The will of the entire multilayered universe was fully awakened and prepared for battle!
Charlotte quickly whispered into Shen Ye’s ear:
“The three arts are the era’s arts that the multilayered universe has evolved through countless epochs, enduring immeasurable setbacks and destructions.”
“The three arts combined form the ultimate seal of the fifth primordial era, capable of drawing upon the enemy’s power for one’s own use, and I am in charge of it.”
“The ultimate power of the sixth era is the door—its power has not yet fully evolved.”
“There’s no time to say more.”
“Be careful, the enemy is also a ‘wielder’.”
A wielder?
In other words, the one who was controlling the “White Night Spirit King” just now was the owner of the second-ranked ultimate creation?
Shen Ye finally understood the current situation.
In fact, from the previous battle, he had already realized one thing.
The ultimate art unleashed by a wielder is a technique jointly performed by the ultimate creation and its master.
The power of this art is extremely terrifying, far exceeding ordinary truth power.
An existence without a wielder cannot possibly contend with an art of this level!
A sharp sound suddenly erupted from the White Night Spirit King:
“The will of the multilayered universe, you actually thought of the same thing as me.”
With that, it extended its hands to cast a seal.
But only to see long threads appearing in the void around the White Night Spirit King.
Each thread entangled a human.
These threads pierced into the person’s head, adhering to their flesh and winding around their entire skeletal structure.
The person needed permission even to move a little.
A dense spider web appeared.
The web was filled with trapped humans, who, though still alive, all showed expressions of immense pain.
“As ultimate creations, we cannot unleash our full power, we are like the sun and moon to the gods, weapons to humans.”
“—So choosing humans as masters is the right thing to do.”
“They are too weak, as long as you control them well—you can decide for yourself.”
The White Night Spirit King extended a hand and gently plucked a thread.
On the spider web, a human, pulled by the thread, immediately performed a series of movements, quickly forming a seal.
—The wielder was controlled by the ultimate creation, involuntarily casting a spell!
The White Night Spirit King then cast a spell.
This achieved the effect of the wielder going all out.
“I can’t beat it, I’m out!”
The seventeenth-tier truth expert transmitted a message.
“Alright, let’s split up!” Shen Ye responded.
“No—I mean, you’re a wielder, why are you running!” the seventeenth-tier truth expert hastily said.
Suddenly.
The Chaos Ark shook violently.
Shen Ye and the expert looked back together, only to see a black giant wave hundreds of meters high coalescing in mid-air.
An arrogant human face appeared on the crest of the wave, looking down at the two of them.
The opponent’s technique was complete.
There was no time to dodge!
Shen Ye sighed and once again used the Heaven-Shaking Art.
Lan Xi, within the Dharma manifestation behind him, simultaneously formed a seal.
“Run—you can’t block it.”
The seventeenth-tier truth expert transmitted.
After saying that, the expert leaped into the sky, flying in one direction, instantly becoming a small black dot and disappearing.
Shen Ye’s heart stirred.
—Actually, he usually listened to advice.
Especially from those proven comrades who were on his side.
If such people cautioned him about something, he would definitely consider it seriously.
However, there was no time to think now.
The black giant wave surged forward—
“Go.”
Shen Ye whispered, leaping into the sky and chasing in the direction of the expert.
But within three to five breaths, Shen Ye paused.
Ahead.
Heavy black waves rolled up in the void, like a black hand, gripping the seventeenth-tier truth expert tightly.
A sudden ominous premonition flashed through Shen Ye’s mind.
The shadow of death lingered behind him, causing goosebumps to rise all over his body.
A giant hand, condensed from black water, grabbed towards him.
In the sky, another giant hand covered downwards, blocking all his escape routes.
Use the Heaven-Shaking Art?
If he engaged head-on and was defeated, he wouldn’t even have a chance to run.
The All-Universe Art was even more impossible.
His power wasn’t strong enough to transform two such giant hands into dreams.
—No chance!
Shen Ye suddenly made a single-hand seal and struck himself.
All-Heavenly Art!
—The most basic state of the All-Heavenly Art!
Tiny luminous words popped up:
“You used the All-Heavenly Art, targeting yourself.”
“You have returned to your state three seconds ago.”
A flash.
Shen Ye was back on the Chaos Ark.
Yes.
Three seconds ago, he was right here!
Shen Ye looked back, only to see in the distant sky, the endless black giant wave gripping the expert, and the river, like a faceless giant, opening its vast mouth and swallowing him directly.
Swallowed… him…
Shen Ye sighed.
A seventeenth-tier truth expert, just like that.
Although he could see that expert still struggling in the black water—
It was only a matter of time.
How was he supposed to fight this?
How could he possibly win?
“Charlotte.” Shen Ye called out.
“I know,” Charlotte’s voice carried a sense of resolve, “The opponent is the second-ranked ultimate creation, the Scepter of Withering; and it controls many ‘masters’, capable of unleashing the full power of a wielder.”
“Just do your best.”
Shen Ye looked across.
The White Night Spirit King stared at him, seemingly smiling yet not, and said to the void:
“—Found a human with self-awareness, tsk tsk.”
“Multilayered universe, you’ve really fallen on hard times.”
“How can you willingly be manipulated by such a mortal?”
“Let me see, you used your power to increase his strength sevenfold.”
“How foolish.”
Charlotte spoke:
“He is the most skilled fighter I have ever met. It is my honor to form a contract with him, and I do so willingly.”
“Did that battle back then also damage your intelligence?” the White Night Spirit King slowly said: “Well, I’ll just kill him, and let you know how weak and helpless humans truly are.”
As soon as the words fell.
Threads suddenly appeared around Shen Ye.
These threads seemed to be alive, blocking all of Shen Ye’s escape routes and wrapping around his body.
Shen Ye immediately activated the technique he held.
All-Universe Art!
Everything was like a dream—
The threads fell into a dream, disappearing without a trace.
“You can only do this much… your overall attributes are still insufficient, and it possesses so many wielders, the activated ultimate art is even more powerful!”
Charlotte sighed.
Shen Ye looked up and saw at least thirty humans entangled in the spider web.
He simply couldn’t compare.
So.
Further speaking.
He might die.
A flurry of thoughts flashed through Shen Ye’s mind.
“Any suggestions?” he asked.
“None—you decide, I trust you—no matter what, I will cooperate with you and go all out.” Charlotte said.
“Even if it means death in battle?” he asked.
“Yes,” she said.
Shen Ye took a deep breath, his gaze sweeping over the boundless black river outside the large ship.
“I accept the contract trial.”
He said.
“What are you saying? Your last words?” The White Night Spirit King sneered.
However, Shen Ye vanished instantly.
The White Night Spirit King paused, then looked down at the Chaos Ark below and said:
“It’s you? I was going to deal with them first, then talk about you.”
“I will not sit idly by,” the Chaos Ark buzzed.
“It seems I’ll have to deal with your problem first.”
The White Night Spirit King descended, stood on the deck of the ship, and spread its arms, saying:
“I have turned ‘masters’ into puppets, thereby gaining fundamental freedom.”
“So I’ve always been thinking of a grand plan—”
“Why not use these puppets to conquer all ultimate creations?”
“That’s why I’m here.”
Next second.
The roar of the Chaos Ark echoed through the void:
“Wishful thinking—you’re just ranked higher than me, if we really fight, you might not be my match!”
The White Night Spirit King sneered in response: “But you don’t even have a master, you haven’t sorted out that most troublesome matter, while I already have.”
The Chaos Ark suddenly quieted down.
The corners of the White Night Spirit King’s mouth curled into a proud smile:
“I can now wield a wielder’s power.”
“—Submit to me, and I will make a puppet your master.”
“What if I refuse?” the Chaos Ark asked.
“Then you have no need to continue existing.”
“I’ll give you a few minutes to think.”
“Only a few minutes—then you’ll give me a clear answer, and after that, send that boy to me.”
“After all—”
“The multilayered universe is also my goal.”
After the White Night Spirit King finished speaking, it moved a chair and sat down on the deck.
On the other side.
The bottom layer of the Chaos Ark.
“State your plan, quickly! Otherwise, I’ll turn you over immediately!”
Its voice echoed through this level.
“Listen, I have no desire to be your master.”
Shen Ye’s declaration slightly eased the anxious atmosphere in the surrounding void.
“And then?” the Chaos Ark asked.
“Now, only by joining forces can we deal with it—you must do one thing.”
“Why must I do one thing, and not you?” the Chaos Ark asked.
“Easy now, I transmitted rather quickly just now, that fellow must have said something to you again, you need to repeat what it said,” Shen Ye said.
“What’s the use of that? As a wielder, its power can crush you, and I don’t even have a master yet! We are no match for it!” the Chaos Ark angrily exclaimed.
“Why are you in such a hurry,” Shen Ye’s voice became increasingly calm, “Let me hear your conversation, it will only delay us by a minute at most, and we will gain more intelligence—what if it’s useful?”
The void flickered.
The scene that just happened immediately appeared before Shen Ye’s eyes.
He stood with his arms crossed, carefully watching the White Night Spirit King, observing its every move, every expression, and listening intently to every word it spoke.
The conversation ended.
Shen Ye was silent for a moment, then said: “Let’s get to work.”
“How confident are you?” the Chaos Ark asked.
Shen Ye smiled.
In fact.
He could run away.
But that expert would be completely finished.
Furthermore—
If the Chaos Ark was also controlled by the Scepter of Withering, then if they met again, the situation would become even more intractable.
He had to plan ahead.
He had to make as many friends as possible.
This was for survival.
Shen Ye composed himself and said:
“Listen, follow my plan—I am an invincible human, I hope you cooperate well with me.”
He tried to give the other party some confidence.
“Invincible? The void of truth is full of beings you can’t defeat,” the Chaos Ark sneered.
“I never fight those I can’t beat, so I am invincible—you know I could leave, right? But I stayed.”
Shen Ye just laid it all out.
The Chaos Ark said, “Tell me your plan!”
“Alright.”
Shen Ye said, as he walked around the bottom compartment, moving so fast that he appeared as a series of afterimages.
Before long.
He had walked through the entire bottom compartment.
At this point, he had also finished explaining his battle strategy.
“Can you do it?”
He asked.
“Yes, but not for long. Its power is incredibly strong, and as a wielder, it can blast open the ship’s hull. You will die, and I will be destroyed,” the Chaos Ark said.
After hearing Shen Ye’s plan, it seemed lost in thought, and its anxiety subsided a little.
“You don’t need to control it for long, a few seconds will be enough; this is our only chance, you must give it your all,” Shen Ye said.
“…If you fail, I will become its slave, and at that time, the first one I kill will be you,” the Chaos Ark said.
“Talking like that is pointless. Just focus on the task at hand, then you can come at me.”
Shen Ye snapped his fingers.
“Alright, I’ll prepare,” the Chaos Ark’s deep echoes resounded.
…
“Time’s up.”
The White Night Spirit King stood up, casually kicking damaged objects on the deck, and asked:
“Life or death? Tell me your decision.”
The voice of the Chaos Ark resounded:
“Let me confirm again, you want to find a puppet to be my master, thereby controlling me—”
“Is that right?”
The White Night Spirit King listened, and couldn’t help but nod: “Yes.”
The voice of the Chaos Ark continued:
“In my opinion, any of your puppets could be my master—”
“Why don’t you ask them, who among them would be willing to control me, rather than remain eternally bound in your cold void?”
“Just pick one at random,” the White Night Spirit King said casually, looking up at the void.
It noticed that all the humans showed expressions of longing.
Yes.
Staying with the Chaos Ark meant no more suffering this torment.
Who wouldn’t want to be the master of the Chaos Ark?
The White Night Spirit King understood this, couldn’t help but sneer, and was about to speak when a thought suddenly flashed through its mind.
“Bastard—how dare you—”
It roared furiously, but it was already too late to prevent everything from happening.
In the void.
All puppets disappeared simultaneously.
They entered the bottom hold of the Chaos Ark.
—All beings with desire for the Chaos Ark would participate in the contract formation trial it had set up!
The White Night Spirit King looked around.
Not a single one remained!
All the “puppet masters” had entered the trial!
“What a pity,” the White Night Spirit King said, brimming with killing intent, “I’m still here, I—”
Swish!
It was also transported to the bottom layer of the ship’s cabin!
—It wanted to completely conquer the Chaos Ark and make it its slave.
Its desire was the strongest!
The White Night Spirit King appeared in the familiar bottom cabin, immediately forming a seal with both hands and proclaiming:
“Very well, my art unfolds within you, it’s all the same—”
“Watch me pierce through your body!”
It suddenly paused.
All around.
Everything seemed a little different.
That human boy—
His name seemed to be Shen Ye.
At the same instant, he appeared in various parts of the cabin, scattering into dozens of copies.
This was like instantaneous spatial displacement!
—He had this trick up his sleeve?
He was seen embracing the “puppet masters” bound by silk threads, and smashing them into a door that had suddenly opened in the void.
In an instant.
Dozens of Shen Yes, dozens of doors, and dozens of “puppet masters” all vanished.
“What—”
The White Night Spirit King had a bad feeling and immediately tried to cast a spell, but was struck by a fierce one.
Heaven-Shaking Art!
No!!!!
There was nobody here just now, nor any surge of magic.
Why did an ultimate art suddenly appear?
The White Night Spirit King didn’t have time to think and was struck head-on, staggering.
It tried to steady itself.
Shen Ye suddenly appeared and wrapped his arms around it—
Grapple · Endless Natural Evolution!
He carried the White Night Spirit King, and together with it, crashed into the Spirit Gate, disappearing from the cabin.
Lines of faint text continuously flashed in the void:
“You cast the All-Heavenly Art.”
“You returned to 15 seconds ago, thus you returned to your position 15 seconds ago, and are currently casting ‘Grapple · Endless Natural Evolution’ at that second.”
“You cast the All-Heavenly Art.”
“You returned to 16 seconds ago, thus you returned to your position 16 seconds ago, and are currently casting ‘Grapple · Endless Natural Evolution’ at that second.”
“…”
“You returned to 27 seconds ago, to the moment you were casting the ‘Heaven-Shaking Art’.”
—It’s a state rollback!
Using the All-Heavenly Art to constantly return oneself to a state at a certain point in the past.
And at that moment, one was casting a move.
This is directly equivalent to “teleportation instant flash + guaranteed hit”!
On the other side.
The real world.
Shen Ye appeared along with the White Night Spirit King and all the human puppets.
Everyone landed in a deserted ruined city.
Shen Ye dusted himself off, stood up, and said:
“Welcome, everyone.”
He raised his hand and looked at the threads on his arm.
The other end of the threads was connected to the White Night Spirit King’s arm.
At that instant.
The enemy unleashed a powerful binding spell, tying him and the White Night Spirit King together.
“Kid, I know you have many tricks, but no matter what you try now—you can’t escape.”
The White Night Spirit King said indifferently.
Shen Ye moved his arm and shrugged:
“I didn’t plan on running, I just wanted to introduce you to a friend.”
“Every time before, it was you who generously helped me form my long blade, it’s really time for you to meet it.”
“Look—here it comes.”
As soon as the words fell.
The White Night Spirit King instinctively looked up towards the depths of the sky.
The sky.
Endless rays poured down like a torrential rain.
…
The Void of Truth.
On the Chaos Ark.
Shen Ye rested his chin on his hand, sitting quietly in a chair, waiting.
—Young Shen Ye.
He had, at some unknown point, divided into two again; one had gone to the real world, and the other remained here.
The voice of the Chaos Ark resonated with a hum:
“So? Is it going to work or not?”
“Don’t worry, with this kind of thing, even I don’t know what will happen—but you said that the Scepter of Withering didn’t go with them?” Shen Ye asked.
“Yes, the Scepter of Withering didn’t go, only all its ‘masters’ went!” the Chaos Ark said.
Shen Ye couldn’t help but sigh.
Never mind.
One shouldn’t be too greedy.
He yawned and casually answered the other party:
“Just wait a little longer, don’t rush, just remember what I told you.”
“What did you tell me?” the Chaos Ark asked.
At this moment, two lines of faint glowing text quietly appeared in the void:
“Attention, your younger self has died in battle.”
“Do you want to activate the Spirit Art skill?”
“Activate,” Shen Ye said.
Next second.
A tombstone quietly appeared in his Dharma manifestation.
The tombstone bore an inscription:
“Tomb of Shen Ye.”
In the void, a prompt appeared simultaneously:
“You have activated the power of Spirit Art · Failun, entering the revival procedure.”
“Please wait patiently for revival.”
It worked.
He had died in battle.
And in the real world, he was the sole gatekeeper.
With his death, the White Night Spirit King would be unable to return, destined to remain in the real world forever.
It would face the catastrophe of destruction, measured in units of billions of years, alone.
—Could it survive?
Never mind, it couldn’t come back anyway.
“Hey, kid, what did you tell me?”
The voice of the Chaos Ark sounded again.
At this moment, it was extremely anxious.
Shen Ye understood, a smile touched his lips, and he said soothingly:
“I never fight those I can’t beat—”
“So I am invincible.”
