Gates of the Myriad Realms Chapter 602

Alchemy lab.

Urick put his hands together and quickly began casting spells.

“The first layer of the dream world, perish.”

He whispered.

The void vibrated violently.

Chaotic and powerful law fluctuations filled the entire dream world.

Even Kaelen and Shen Ye felt the aftershocks of complete destruction.

“Destruction… are you destroying the dream world?”

Kaelen said excitedly.

—This kind of large-scale world-destruction act is beneficial to the Lord of Destruction who is in it.

Urick said expressionlessly:

“Someone stole my things and is still here, I’m going to kill him.”

“—The dream world can be rebuilt, but that person must die!”

Kaelen felt for a few breaths and sighed, “All seven dream worlds are going to be destroyed?”

“Exactly.”

“Then your clansmen—”

“It’s okay, I have a way to bring them back to life.”

Urick’s spell seals on his hands scattered, and he began to form the second seal.

—He began to destroy the second dream world!

The surrounding strongmen watched this scene and dared not say a word.

When a World Lord begins to unleash his full power, no one dares to stand up and stop him.

—This is the Dream Gatekeeper, the King of Dreams!

A trace of surprise flashed in Kaelen’s eyes, and he wanted to say something, but finally closed his mouth.

A thought arose in his mind.

Seven dream worlds.

Countless sentient beings.

If after killing all of them, the problem still couldn’t be solved.

What about the guests here?

—Is he going to kill them all?

Many people thought of this.

Kaelen looked back and met Shen Ye’s gaze.

“This guy is completely insane.”

Kaelen transmitted.

Shen Ye did not respond.

—At this moment, another voice transmission sounded in his ear:

“The art of world destruction consumes an extreme amount of power. Even a being like Urick must exert his full strength to destroy the dream world.”

“Now is your chance, kill him!”

This was Old John’s voice.

His tone was full of urgency and催促, wishing that Shen Ye would immediately attack.

Shen Ye, however, did not move.

Kill Urick—

Is it really that easy?

His gate ability was terrifying. Just a slight manifestation of it crushed the gate abilities of Panda and Tantai Mingyue.

—Those who died by his hand were truly dead.

Shen Ye glanced at the void and saw the shimmering small characters suspended in mid-air, unmoving:

“Currently establishing the inheritance ability of the Gate of Dreams.”

“Congratulations.”

“You have obtained the power of the ‘Pure Land’ Gate.”

“One minute later.”

“You will awaken the ‘Bliss’ Gate.”

Shen Ye fell into deep thought.

In fact.

He had been passively dealing with everything.

It was Old John who pushed him to this point.

What was the difference between him and Adrian?

The long sword Adrian used to display was clearly stated as a reward after the deed was done.

This was a normal transaction process.

Old John, however, directly took out the gate inheritance, paying in advance, fearing that he would go back on his word.

One wanted to kill Kaelen.

One wanted to kill Urick.

—Both wanted him to be their hitman.

Fighting was the easiest thing.

But the battle with Urick would definitely determine life and death.

One wrong step would lead to an abyss.

Killing Kaelen was also an important matter that would affect the future of the great destruction.

Therefore—

Why?

Why should he stand up and fight to the death just because they offered some benefits!

Not to mention those benefits—

Currently, there was not enough information to support him in a battle where he could advance or retreat.

“My lord, we don’t seem to be needed here.”

Shen Ye spoke.

“Hmm,” Kaelen immediately understood, and laughed heartily: “The power of the King of Dreams is beyond our imagination. Let’s go back to our rooms to rest and wait for good news.”

The two turned and walked out of the alchemy laboratory.

“I’ll send you back.”

Urick casually cast a spatial spell.

The two immediately disappeared from their original spot.

The next moment.

They returned to the guest resting area.

Shen Ye immediately heard Old John’s voice:

“Now is the best opportunity!”

“If you take the inheritance but don’t dare to act, don’t blame me for exposing you and letting Urick kill you!”

Shen Ye did not respond.

A growing sense of intensity surged in his heart.

Indeed, he yearned for the gate’s inheritance.

But things were completely unclear.

—He was like a fish that had taken the bait. Although he was still lurking in the water, the other party could reel him in at any time.

To advance was to fight to the death.

To retreat was impossible.

He had unknowingly reached this point.

Shen Ye’s expression remained unchanged. He took something out of his pocket and handed it to Kaelen.

“What is this?”

Kaelen asked curiously.

“A mobile phone,” Shen Ye said.

“I know humans have this kind of communication device, but it’s too crude. I don’t need this kind of thing,” Kaelen said dismissively.

Shen Ye swiped on the screen.

The screen lit up.

A video began to play:

“This is curious, why would you come to me?”

“There’s a human saying I appreciate, and I think I can share it with you.”

—Inside the palace, the scene of the Lord of Destruction Adrian meeting Shen Ye was fully displayed before Kaelen’s eyes.

Kaelen watched it without blinking and gently crushed the phone.

“Damn Adrian.”

He spat out, his teeth gnashing.

“After all, you worked with me to kill Ojha, and he and I have nothing between us, so I’m on your side this time.”

Shen Ye said.

Caelan nodded slightly.

Yes.

If he wanted to kill himself, the other party wouldn’t have shown him this video.

—Before he could even be on guard, Shen Ye could have found Adrian, and the two could have put on a show. At a certain moment, they could have suddenly launched a sneak attack on him.

That would have been the strategy with the greatest chance of winning.

Kaelen thought for a moment and said:

“We can change the contract now—to a higher-level alliance contract—I, Kaelen, will never let my allies suffer.”

He conjured a ball of destructive flames, solidified it into a contract, and quickly wrote down its contents.

Shen Ye stood silently aside.

Old John’s voice resounded in his ears again:

“I’ll give you one last chance.”

“Ten minutes later, Urick will inspect all the guest rooms. That will be your last chance to strike.”

“If you don’t act, I can’t guarantee that your identity won’t be revealed.”

“There is no gain without pain.”

“Isn’t that right?”

The sound faded.

Shen Ye still didn’t respond.

He looked at Kaelen, who was diligently constructing the contract, and suddenly spoke:

“Kaelen.”

“Hmm?”

“I have a strategy to win over Urick, and I need your help.”

Kaelen immediately said readily:

“Winning him over is also my wish. If you need anything, just say so.”

—Whether it was to win over Urick or to try his best to keep Shen Ye, his ally, on his side, both were necessary.

Otherwise—

His own fate would definitely be dire.

“Ten minutes later, Urick will inspect all the guest rooms, and you are to do this.”

Shen Ye began to transmit.

Kaelen listened intently, his mouth gradually widening, his eyes widening.

“Are you sure?”

He asked.

“Sure,” Shen Ye said.

…

Time passed minute by minute.

Ten minutes later.

“Knock, knock, knock—”

A knock on the door.

But it was the next room.

Then.

Urick’s voice sounded.

He was talking to a powerful being from the Phantom Spirit World.

“Seven acts of world destruction, the entire dream world reduced to nothing. What do you plan to do next?”

The powerhouse asked.

The room didn’t seem soundproof, so their conversation was audible to all the other rooms around.

This situation, however, surprisingly put all the guests at ease.

Urick’s voice then sounded:

“As long as I am here, all dream creatures can appear in a new dream at any time.”

“So that’s how it is. So, have you found the thief?”

“Found him.”

“Congratulations, congratulations.”

“Please return to the banquet later. I must apologize profusely.”

Urick said gracefully.

Old John stood by his side.

At this moment.

Shen Ye and Kaelen were in the next room.

The guests all released their spiritual senses, paying attention to Urick’s conversation.

On the other side of the castle.

—The Alchemy Laboratory.

A door quietly appeared on the wall.

The door opened.

Another Shen Ye quietly appeared.

“Hurry up.”

He whispered.

“The passage is open,” Su Su said.

“The prohibition has evolved,” the Boat of Chaos said.

On the ceiling.

A ventilation shaft suddenly appeared.

Shen Ye flashed, jumped up, and quickly left.

As soon as he left.

Urick immediately appeared.

He looked at the door on the wall, then looked up at the ceiling—

The ventilation shaft had disappeared.

“So fast!”

Urick muttered, a trace of doubt flashing across his face.

—What was the other party trying to do?

If the first time three gatekeepers appeared, it was to fight him for the inheritance of the gate of dreams—

But they ran away.

The second time one came, but didn’t directly engage him.

—What were they thinking?

Were they trying to set a trap to lure him in?

No.

With his strength, even if everyone in the entire castle plus all the guests came at him, he would not be afraid.

So—

What was their goal?

Urick’s heart was filled with doubts.

“Hmph… where do you think you’re running!”

He directly smashed through the ceiling and, following the direction of that aura, rapidly pursued.

One breath.

Two breaths!

In just two breaths, Urick suddenly paused, a look of surprise appearing on his face.

Fighting had begun ahead!

No mistake.

That was the fluctuation of battle, and both sides were powerful.

Who was fighting whom?

Or rather—

The other party’s target wasn’t him?

Why!

This was his dream world, and the other party actually had another target!

Urick became even more perplexed. His figure flickered repeatedly, and his speed suddenly surged.

If he had been chasing while being wary of traps and trump cards the other party might throw out earlier—

Now he couldn’t afford to be careful.

—He had to see what was going on.

What was going on here!

Crash—

Urick smashed through the wall and landed directly in a room.

The scene before him made him hold his breath.

In the room.

A body lay on the ground.

—It was Baxter, the attendant Kaelen always kept by his side, the primordial spirit of destruction.

He had been cut in half at the waist, clearly dead.

A knife pierced Kaelen’s chest.

The Lord of Destruction’s situation was also extremely perilous.

“Get out!”

Kaelen roared and struck.

At this moment.

Urick didn’t quite understand the situation.

He merely observed the scene in the room, rapidly analyzing the current situation.

It was less than an instant—

The person struck again.

The long blade.

It was pulled back from Kaelen’s chest, taking advantage of the opportunity to avoid Kaelen’s close combat attack, and swung towards Urick.

“How dare you!”

Urick roared.

Fast.

The blade was too fast.

He had just arrived here.

There was no time to form a seal, nor to summon the gate.

This blade—

It sealed off all his routes of attack and methods, and it was so fast, like an event that was destined to happen.

The blade radiated infinite power of the law, as if the opponent had used all their strength, regardless of the consequences, to strike it.

As long as this blade was struck, life and death didn’t matter!

How could there be such swordsmanship!

How could there be such a person!

Urick even regretted coming too quickly.

If.

If he had been more prepared, and arrived a little later, he might have been able to counterattack on the spot.

But then, perhaps the other party would have already killed Kaelen.

Things could not be perfect!

So at this moment—

Although Urick roared in fury, he could only helplessly leap gently, retreating several meters.

It was this retreat.

He dodged the blade.

Kaelen’s punch missed, blasting away all the buildings in front of him.

The swordsman, however, seized this momentary opportunity, re-sheathed his blade, retreated, and jumped into a door, disappearing without a trace.

It sounds slow, but all of this happened in just a short moment.

That person escaped!

Kaelen clutched his wound and knelt to look at his attendant’s body.

“Baxter!”

He shouted, shook his head, and sighed.

“Your attendant is dead,” Urick said gravely.

“I know.”

“That person just now—”

“It must have been an assassin sent by Adrian.”

“Are you sure?” Urick asked expressionlessly.

“Hmph, see for yourself.” Kaelen, his face full of murderous intent, turned to meet Urick’s violent gaze and threw a mobile phone over.

The phone was repeatedly playing the scene of Shen Ye meeting Adrian.

“He tried to turn my personal guard, but my guard was loyal to me and wasn’t used by him.”

“So he found other assassins to kill me.”

“My attendant also died.”

Kaelen said as he collected the body from the ground.

Urick quietly watched the video on the screen.

In fact.

The internal strife of the destruction faction had nothing to do with him, and he couldn’t be bothered to care.

But—

That assassin had dream power!

He could vaguely sense that it was the power of the “Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss” inheritance!

This was definitely related to him.

“You only have one side of the story, I won’t believe it—wait for me here.”

Urick said.

He suddenly disappeared, appearing directly in the palace.

The palace was empty.

No one.

Only Urick stood there alone.

“What did you two see?”

He spoke.

A moment of silence.

In a short while.

The two statues in the main hall moved.

The multi-headed statue resembling a dragon spoke:

“Someone was meeting here, attempting to reach some kind of agreement.”

The hulking knight, fully armored and with his features hidden behind a mask, interjected:

“One side is Adrian, a Lord of Destruction, and the other is an attendant of Kaelen, another Lord of Destruction.”

“—Such a minor matter isn’t worth reporting.”

“So we didn’t mention it.”

Urick said, “Show me what happened at the time.”

“Yes.”

The dragon spat out a ball of light, replaying the scene of Shen Ye and Adrian’s secret talks.

—This was exactly the same as the video on the phone!

Kaelen hadn’t lied.

So—

No matter how you looked at it, Adrian was definitely connected to that assassin.

Urick suddenly started to laugh.

He had thought he could just sit back and reap the benefits from both sides, without having to side with either.

But someone was too arrogant.

—Adrian was dealing with Kaelen while secretly arranging for a gatekeeper to steal the Gate inheritance of the Dream World.

Urick’s body erupted with murderous intent, and screaming humanoid phantoms surged between his hands.

“You’re courting death, Adrian.”

He gritted his teeth.

Suddenly.

A figure appeared in the main hall.

Old John.

“Your Majesty, what happened?” Old John asked.

“I found the thief.”

Urick said without turning his head.

Old John was stunned for a moment, then immediately overjoyed, “That’s great! Your Majesty, please tell me where he is, I’ll go kill him.”

“No, the opponent is quite strong, and cannot be killed—I will personally take action this time,” Urick said.

A hint of confusion flashed in Old John’s eyes.

Cannot be killed?

No way, that kid is definitely not a Lord of Destruction.

But then Urick turned around and spoke softly:

“It’s Adrian, he did this.”

“Huh? Him? Master—”

“It’s him.”

Old John stammered a few times, but finally held back, only asking in a calm and surprised tone:

“It was him?”

“It’s him. Get ready. We’re going to catch him, interrogate him about the inheritance, and then kill him.”

“…Yes.”

…

On the other side.

Shen Ye returned to the nightmare world.

“Are we safe?”

Charlotte asked.

“We’re safe—that battle must have been dangerous, and I didn’t want to fight, so we’ll just take the benefits,” Shen Ye said.

“But the inheritance of the Dream Gate is on you, and Old John will definitely guide the King of Dreams to find you eventually,” said the Boat of Chaos.

Shen Ye nodded and said, “You’re right, so we need to clear our names.”

“Clear our names?”

The Boat of Chaos, Su Su, and Seventh Uncle said in unison.

Shen Ye said:

“The suspicion is temporarily cleared. Strictly speaking, we now need to ‘launder money’—Charlotte?”

“I’m ready,” Charlotte said.

“Good.”

Shen Ye responded, and with a thought.

In an instant.

Lines of glimmering small characters appeared in the void:

“You have begun to use the keyword ‘Mandala Uroboros’ to extract everything contained within the inheritance ‘Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss’.”

“You have used the ‘Mandala Chant’ to return all impure forces within it.”

“The pure ‘Gate’ principle is now ready.”

“Multiverse Charlotte begins to unleash ‘Devourer’.”

Yes!

Within the realm of truth, it was Charlotte who deduced the gate ability!

Now, with her “devouring,” it would inevitably help her deduce a stronger gate ability within the cosmic era.

This was what Shen Ye called “money laundering.”

Everything in the inheritance would become safer and more suitable for Shen Ye.

Shen Ye was silently observing everything when he suddenly looked up.

With a “clunk,” a brand new term appeared above his head:

“The Unhooked.”

“A secret feat acknowledged by universal terms and the laws of all realms.”

“As a fish on the verge of being hooked, you, through a series of maneuvers, hung a dead fish on the hook, unhooked yourself, and have since roamed freely in the world.”

“—Dead fish on the hook, reel it in and go.”
