Gates of the Myriad Realms Chapter 577

Clang!

Shen Ye looked up.

Above his head, lines of glowing tiny characters quickly appeared:

“You are the first human to defeat ‘???’ after breaking free from the ‘Species Grace’, thus you have obtained this ‘Destiny Judgement’.”

“This is a sensational event. Please choose whether to proclaim it or conceal it.”

“Please make a decision quickly to generate corresponding power from all realms and activate the corresponding trait.”

A sensational event?

It seemed that in the outside world, humans, as “newbies,” were still despised.

But how should he deal with this matter?

Proclaim it?

Or conceal it?

Shen Ye hesitated slightly.

“Shen Ye, we can go back now.”

Charlotte’s voice sounded.

Shen Ye paused, then said:

“The situation is quite delicate, I actually want to observe a bit longer.”

“Observe what?” Charlotte asked.

“Observe how things unfold next—because I need to figure out my next steps now—can you give me some advice?” Shen Ye said.

“As a creation, I once failed in a battle across all realms, so you need to think about this yourself. My only responsibility is to fight.” Charlotte replied.

“You’re not going to be involved in this?” Shen Ye asked.

“No,” Charlotte said, “I just think you need to adapt more to the rules of all realms. You need to think independently to grow.”

“So you’re doing this for my own good.” Shen Ye sighed.

“Of course—”

Before the words finished, with a “clunk,” a new trait appeared on the long saber:

“Hands-off Manager.”

“Description: When you don’t manage things and only contribute effort, your luck +3.”

“—Why think so much? Just do it.”

Both stared at the trait.

“…” Shen Ye.

“Don’t trust this trait, you do need training, don’t you?” Charlotte said.

“Yes, of course, thank you for looking out for me,” Shen Ye immediately said.

At this moment, he had to go along with the girl.

Otherwise, it would be difficult to coax her.

In the passage.

A rustling sound came from afar.

“A monster is coming, be careful.”

Charlotte said.

“But it seems to be moving a bit slowly, let’s wait for it,” Shen Ye said.

Charlotte’s voice faded from the long saber.

The long saber began to accumulate power.

—Just do it, why overthink?

Shen Ye’s hand rested on the hilt of his saber. Standing still, he thought about the impending battle, somewhat lost in thought.

Actually, what he said to the old blind man was true.

This saber technique was not completely finished.

But its power was already quite considerable.

He turned his head to look at the void.

Lines of glowing tiny characters still floated in mid-air, motionless:

“Years Slash (unfinished).”

“A soul-stripping slash for slaying gods, the pinnacle of three arts, a blade embodying myriad traits, a unified saber technique.”

“Description:”

“1. The three arts merge into a sealing slash, striking invariably, seizing souls and spirits;”

“2. Sealing souls into the pháp tướng ‘One Qi Manifesting Three Pure Ones’, hosted in rotation by the elements of ‘consumption’, ‘parasitism’, ‘destruction’, ‘disorder’, and ‘withering’, empowering the three-art slash to become the ‘unshakable’, ‘inescapable dream’, and ‘unrelieved’ three forces, purifying the mind and refining the soul, enduring suffering through countless lives, without respite, never to escape.”

“—The pháp tướng and saber technique become one, thus forming the unified saber technique.”

“—Alas, the passing years, again spent in vain.”

Shen Ye withdrew his gaze.

In the world of truth, the strongest method of attack was to fully unleash one’s moves with the empowerment of a法相.

He used “Mandala Uroboros,” and also drew power from the multi-verse, parasitic empress, and ship of destruction to empower his pháp tướng and unleash this saber strike.

The saber technique had reached its current limit for him.

He looked to the side.

Augustus and Donao River’s bodies remained stiff and motionless.

Their souls had gone into the법相.

Their bodies staying here was essentially akin to becoming “living corpses.”

How to deal with them?

Perhaps just destroy them.

“Wait a moment.”

A voice sounded from the end of the corridor.

Immediately after.

A monster appeared, with the upper body of a human woman and the lower body covered in countless tentacles.

She looked at the two “living corpses” beside Shen Ye and asked,

“Did you kill them?”

The entire passage suddenly fell silent.

All power and elements vanished into the void, waiting quietly.

Waiting for—

Shen Ye to make a decision.

Yes.

It was this moment; he had to make a decision.

—To hide his identity, or to proclaim himself?

There was no more time for careful deliberation.

Today.

Here.

The alliance of eternal humans and truth creations had formed the power to defeat the monsters of all realms.

Should he proclaim this?

Or should he bide his time, keeping it hidden?

In an instant.

Shen Ye made his decision.

—Only children make choices.

“I killed them.”

He said.

“You? A human?” The monster stared at him, somewhat incredulously.

“Human?” Shen Ye chuckled, “Don’t underestimate humans. I am an existence embodying the will of the Great Catastrophe of Destruction.”

“I heard that your world has many grievances against the Great Catastrophe of Destruction, and usually acts quite brazenly. I specifically came to see.”

“I’ll take the souls of these two things.”

“No need to thank me.”

Just then.

A flicker of inspiration suddenly flashed through Shen Ye’s mind.

This D-0314 world was deep within the Great Catastrophe of Destruction, yet it had never been destroyed.

—There must be a reason.

Looking further.

They hated the Great Catastrophe of Destruction so much.

Donao River had said so.

This was definite information.

It further validated their relationship with the Catastrophe.

So—

Why not light a fire?

The other party asked:

“By what right do you represent destruction?”

“Because I was originally here to do this; we have a mission.”

Shen Ye said.

Boom—

Infinite dark flames erupted from him.

—The power of the Ship of Destruction!

Immediately after.

A pair of black wings grew from his back.

The primordial spirit of destruction!

“Primordial spirit… very well, you killed two beings from our side, but listen—”

The monster extended its long tongue, flicking it like a serpent’s tongue at Augustus and Donao River’s bodies, and continued:

“Give me these two corpses, and I will cover up this matter for you.”

“—You don’t want to be hunted by the entire world, do you?”

Shen Ye was stunned, then immediately furious.

To talk to me like that?

Where did you learn that?

Moreover.

I was planning to confirm this matter.

And you want to take a bribe to cover for me?

“Daydreaming.”

Shen Ye said indifferently.

He waved his hand and collected the two corpses.

The monster opposite stared at him, its expression grim and ferocious:

“You ate their souls, but didn’t even leave their bodies, hogging everything for yourself—”

“I understand, you truly embody the will of destruction!”

Shen Ye smiled.

—Donao River had also said that whatever the Great Catastrophe of Destruction dealt with, it monopolized.

Now he had gone all out.

What else could you do?

Shen Ye drew his long saber, ready to strike at any moment.

The monster opposite suddenly opened its mouth and let out a piercing shriek.

The shriek spread incredibly fast.

In an instant.

Countless sounds echoed from outside the passage.

The monsters were coming!

Charlotte’s voice suddenly rang out:

“If we don’t leave now, we won’t be able to.”

“Understood!”

Shen Ye turned around and ran towards the end of the passage.

At the same time.

A “clang” suddenly erupted above his head.

Lines of glowing tiny characters quickly appeared:

“This is a sensational event, and you have chosen to proclaim it.”

“The corresponding power from all realms has been generated. You can now choose a trait to activate.”

“The new trait will possess the power of all realms.”

The power of all realms…

There was nothing to hesitate about.

My strongest trait is the one that reached the pinnacle of the world of truth—

Mandala Uroboros.

That’s the one!

A line of small characters popped up:

“Imbuing this trait with the power of all realms.”

“This trait possesses uniqueness and cannot be integrated with the power of all realms. The power of all realms has selected a compatible trait and is currently re-imbuing it.”

Shen Ye glanced, then suddenly drew his saber and cut back.

Ripples spread from the long saber in the void.

One of him stayed behind, raising his saber and slashing at the monster.

The real him, however, broke through the wall at the end of the passage and leaped into the dark void.

“I’ll take you back!”

Charlotte said.

“No, not back,” Shen Ye countered.

At the moment, he represented the power of destruction.

Yet he was supposed to return to the world of truth?

Wouldn’t that expose him?

If he were to return, it would be to the world of destruction!

Intense dark flames erupted all over him, and he flapped his wings, flying towards the boundless depths of the void.

“Where are you going?”

Charlotte asked.

“The Destruction Faction.”

“Do you know the way?”

“This world is actually hidden deep within the Great Catastrophe of Destruction, or rather, it’s outside the Great Catastrophe of Destruction—as long as we move away from it, we’re sure to reach the Destruction Faction!”

Shen Ye said, releasing the escape pod.

—This was something the Eternal Brain had prepared for itself back then.

Its speed was extremely fast!

The only drawback was that it was too small!

But that didn’t faze Shen Ye.

He placed his brain inside the escape pod, then opened his법相 and hid inside.

“Let’s go! I’m the brain!”

The green brain yelled, fully activating the escape pod, and flew into the dark depths.

On the other side.

In the secret passage.

Monster after monster appeared quietly.

They stared at the false Shen Ye, gradually moving closer and surrounding him.

“Be careful, the Brain Group was annihilated by him—”

“He’s from the Great Catastrophe of Destruction.”

The female monster from before spoke.

“Does destruction really want to start an all-out war with us?” another monster asked.

“Unclear, but as long as we capture him, everything will be clear,” the third monster said.

In a flash.

Seven or eight spells pierced through Shen Ye’s body.

“It’s an illusion!”

“How is that possible? I’m best at dispelling illusions, how did he do it?”

“He’s probably already gone.”

“Chase!”

The monsters chased for a while.

Suddenly.

They all stopped.

“This move is truly a masterpiece,” an extremely powerful monster said, “The void ahead is filled with dreams, trying to break through all of them will immediately activate a spell, and I can’t guarantee that spell is safe.”

With that, it turned and walked back.

“Are we just giving up?” the female monster asked.

“Of course not to be so embarrassing—I’ll go invite those king-level beings to take a look.”

“That would be best.”

…

The escape pod flew through the vast dark void.

Lines of glowing tiny characters appeared:

“Your ‘Duck’ type trait is compatible with the power of all realms.”

“Congratulations.”

“Thanks to the fusion of all realms’ power, your ‘Duck’ will be promoted to king level.”

“Current sudden trait obtained:”

“First Duck.”

“All-realm trait, king-level trait, one-time trait.”

“Description: You are the first human to defeat ‘???’. Using this trait grants you an exclusive all-realm power cloak.”

“—Duck King exclusive.”

“—Special costumes for grand occasions.”

Duck King?

Many veins popped on the green brain.

Charlotte’s voice carried a chilling tone: “Stop, do you want a cerebral hemorrhage? Calm down quickly, don’t get angry.”

“Otherwise, your brain will explode in two minutes and twenty-seven seconds.”

This was Charlotte’s other personality, Pe’aso.

—The prophetic advisor Pe’aso!

Charlotte switched personalities!

“Where’s Charlotte?” the green brain asked.

“She’s laughing—uncontrollably laughing, can’t talk to you. Only I’m relatively calm, so I’m here to persuade you,” Pe’aso said.

*Slap!*

A burst of blood splattered on the green brain.

“If you don’t calm down, you’ll have a cerebral hemorrhage in twenty-seven seconds,” Pe’aso said calmly.

The green brain immediately calmed down.

“In ten seconds you’ll ask me what’s the solution. Well, the solution is simple.”

Pe’aso continued, “All your ‘duck’ traits are one-time use; just use it up.”

“Understood!” the green brain said cheerfully.

It put away the escape pod, and with a thought, immediately used the trait “First Duck.”

*Bang!*

With a sound.

The mist dispersed.

A pure white duck appeared in the darkness.

“Congratulations.”

“You have obtained the pretty duck’s white cloak.”

“Wearing this cloak will let all beings know that you are a good little duck with altruistic abilities.”

“This action will not conceal your original identity (Primordial Spirit of Destruction).”

“Good little duck is you, and you are the good little duck.”

“Obtained additional power:”

“Altruistic trait ‘Behind the Scenes Operator’ elevated by one major tier.”

“This trait can now be given a prefix or suffix, and raise the item’s level by one tier.”

New identity!

But what did he need this identity for?

To be a duck, he had to appear in grand settings.

I’m a little nervous.

And I have a girlfriend.

Never mind.

Let’s not—

The duck was just thinking when it was suddenly enveloped by a force and instantly vanished from the dark void.

The next moment.

It appeared on an altar.

“It worked!”

Someone shouted.

The good little duck looked around blankly.

—The lingering power of spatial summoning permeated the air.

They summoned me!

And this was a city floating in the dark void.

The entire city was a massive circular structure, its surface burning with dark flames.

—Flames of destruction!

It worked!

The good little duck cheered inwardly.

He had returned to the Destruction Faction.

“Excuse me—”

“Are you a Primordial Spirit of Destruction?”

Someone asked.

The good little duck turned its head to see a man dressed as a priest kneeling on one knee, asking excitedly.

“Quack, yes.”

The good little duck replied.

Those people immediately cheered.

The good little duck looked bewildered and asked,

“You people used altar-like spells to summon me, what’s the matter?”

The priest immediately said:

“Reporting, my lord, this is Black Flame City.”

“Three days ago, our city lord was killed by an invading monster.”

“Since then, the destructive power of the entire city has been waning, almost unable to form a defense.”

“Please help us, communicate with the Great Catastrophe, and see how we can remedy this!”

The good little duck was about to refuse, but then changed its mind—

The city lord is dead…

What an opportunity.

“Cough, since you ask so sincerely, I will mercifully help you ask.”

The good little duck said.

“Thank you, my lord!”

Everyone was deeply grateful.

The duck squinted its eyes, trying to call upon the will of the Great Catastrophe of Destruction.

A moment later.

It finally understood what had happened here.

Black Flame City.

This was the closest City of Destruction to world D-0314.

Monsters from world D-0314 frequently attacked.

How could these destruction servants resist?

Even the city lord had died in battle.

The Great Catastrophe of Destruction was extremely angry about this and began to withdraw all its power.

Only one method could make destruction favor this city again.

“Kill a monster, sacrifice its body to the Great Catastrophe, and all your problems will be solved.”

The duck said.

“A monster? A monster from that world?” A professional pointed towards the depths of the dark universe.

He was pointing in the direction of world D-0314.

“It is likely so.”

The duck replied.

Everyone fell silent.

If they could really do that, the city lord wouldn’t have died.

The duck, of course, knew this.

—He had obtained the “First Duck” trait of a Duck King!

Other humans hadn’t even defeated a monster yet!

Pe’aso’s voice suddenly rang in the duck’s ear:

“In five hours and seventeen minutes, a king-level monster from world D-0314 will chase you here and kill you in the depths of the void.”

The duck shuddered, then suddenly jumped up and quacked:

“I can invite a strong one, but all of you must support him—”

“Only then can he help you.”

“Are you willing to do so?”

Those people seemed to reignite with hope, saying repeatedly:

“Good, thank you.”

“A living bodhisattva has returned!”

“What a formidable primordial spirit…”

While speaking, everyone quickly reached a consensus.

—As long as someone can resolve this crisis, everyone will uphold him as the new city lord!

There was nothing extraordinary about it.

The strong reign supreme!

Otherwise, if the city fell, everyone would die!

“Very good,” the duck looked around, satisfied with everyone’s attitude, “I will now summon a strong one from the depths of destruction.”

“He will surely be able to handle the current situation.”
