Gates of the Myriad Realms Chapter 671
byA group of wild boars ran through the valley.
They crossed rugged mountain paths, jumped into streams, waded through the water, and came ashore.
“Stop.”
The leading wild boar snorted.
All the wild boars immediately stopped and looked warily into the dense forest.
A gray shadow leaped out of the forest and landed in front of them.
– It was a striped tiger!
“Follow me.”
The tiger growled.
The wild boars were a little hesitant.
The tiger said impatiently, “What time is it now? You still have the mind to suspect I want to eat you?”
It roared into the forest.
Immediately.
The sounds of foxes, wolves, leopards, peacocks, and bears rang out in unison.
But the wild boars still didn’t relax their guard.
“Token.”
The wild boar leader said.
“Look!” The tiger had no choice but to pull out a token and display it in front of the wild boars.
“It is indeed General Wang’s token – very well, lads, follow me!” The wild boar leader shouted behind him.
Only then did the wild boars step forward and enter the forest with the tiger.
The tiger nodded secretly.
If this pig demon didn’t even follow the rule of checking the token, it would eat them itself, so that they wouldn’t disobey orders on the battlefield and disrupt military morale when the time came.
It looked back and wondered,
“Pig demon, why is there a duck among you?”
“Carried along the way – this is a duck demon, with extraordinary conversation skills.” The wild boar leader said.
The duck, squatting on the back of a wild boar, clasped its hands upon hearing this:
“I am Baxter, and I greet the mountain king.”
шшш✿тTk дn✿¢O
The tiger sized it up.
Extraordinary conversation skills?
In the past, one could indeed sit down and discuss theories, but what time is it now!
The tiger sighed:
“Duck brother, it’s not that I look down on you, but this battle is extremely important. We need to concentrate our fighting power, break through the encirclement, and have no time to take care of someone like you -”
The duck stretched out its wing and pointed at the tiger.
“Hymn Singer” activated!
In an instant.
All of the mountain king’s skills were raised one level.
“Brother Duck, don’t worry, your safety will be my personal responsibility!” The tiger thumped its chest loudly and said with a booming voice.
“Don’t waste time, let’s go!” The wild boar urged.
“Go!”
A group of beast demons rushed into the jungle and set off shortly after.
They were all ancient mountain demons who had been cultivating for many years. They galloped under the scorching sun, and in just two hours, they reached the outside of the majestic mountains.
It was a frontier town.
A monkey went ahead first, checked the situation, and soon returned to report:
“Everyone is dead, and the city is also broken.”
“What? Is there no one left alive?” The mountain king asked.
“No living people.”
“Quick, let’s go into the city together – at least we need to find the post station!”
Everyone rushed into the city, only to see the corpses of dead human soldiers everywhere.
There were also some remains of great demons.
Fires ignited houses, sending columns of smoke rising into the sky, appearing desolate and tragic under the gloomy sky.
The duck followed the large group, observing as they walked, and soon arrived at a still-burning post station.
“This fire is demon fire. My five elements are wind, so it’s a bit troublesome for me to deal with it – who can extinguish it?”
The mountain king asked.
The demons pondered endlessly.
The duck glanced at the burning flames a few times and indeed saw some clues.
“Flame of Dead Souls.”
“Bizarre life, law-type demonic flame, twenty layers of truth.”
“Description: Be careful, it’s alive.”
The duck’s heart trembled slightly.
– This was a bizarre monster!
Now it could attack the demon beast team at any time, but there was also good news –
According to Valhalla’s previous description of strength levels, this demonic flame was probably only a D-level existence.
Because its basic attributes had not yet reached “twenty-first layer of truth”!
Seeing the fire silently spreading –
“Let me try.”
The duck jumped out and shouted loudly.
Upon hearing this, the demon beasts made way.
Good duck, without any showmanship, jumped straight up, holding the Netherflame Blade in its beak, and slashed against the wind.
Surging Blade Art – Chill of Early Spring!
The flames were suddenly bound by an invisible force, and after being struck by the Netherflame Blade, they suddenly erupted in a void-shaking scream.
But screaming was also useless.
Good Duck used the Netherflame Blade to take away a “sphere” it was about to release, and then used the keyword “Mandala – Ouroboros” to extract its power.
The demonic fire extinguished all at once.
The duck landed on the ground, holding the blade in its beak, and looked back.
The mountain king and all the other demon beasts were stunned.
“…” Duck.
–These guys are no good.
If their opponents were bizarre life forms, it would be better not to seek death.
Wait!
The duck looked at the demons with its “Ouroboros Eye”.
It understood.
The mountain king had an ancient sequence.
Perhaps this sequence could help them do something, such as enhancing their combat power.
The next second.
The mountain king glanced into the void and said,
“Brother Duck has great skills – now we must immediately enter the post station to receive instructions. Come, join me!”
“Alright.” Duck said happily.
Just in time to figure out what was going on here!
The head of the mountain entered the post station, glanced around casually, and then patted a wall.
“Wind and thunder return to their places, by imperial decree!”
The tiger demon shouted.
Buzz—
With a long sound, the wall unfolded, transforming into an all-metal Eight Trigrams array.
The tiger demon took out a token and placed it on top.
—It was the same token that the wild boar leader had asked to see earlier.
The duck glanced at it covertly and saw that the token indeed had a line of text engraved on it:
“Guerrilla General, Wang Lingxiu.”
The token embedded itself in the Eight Trigrams array, immediately causing countless spiritual lights to gather and propel the array to slowly rotate.
A female voice sounded from the array disc:
“Front line… no need to come…”
“Now, I command all birds and beasts, all monsters and ghosts, and all beings with spirits in the ten directions to go and rescue the royal city from its calamity.”
“Go quickly, go quickly!”
The duck was filled with questions.
Royal City?
Was Starmoon City the Royal City?
It had always been guarded by three sequences, and personnel had to be mobilized from time to time to deal with attacks from bizarre monsters.
—So now it was seeing the past of Starmoon City?
Good Duck was pondering when it suddenly heard a strange cry erupt from outside.
This cry seemed to possess some mysterious power.
The spiritual light on the array disc scattered all at once.
“Enemy attack!”
The mountain king shouted loudly.
The group of demons immediately spread out into a defensive formation.
The duck also stretched out its wings, pointing from afar to bestow the power of “Hymn Singer” upon the demons.
The mountain king suddenly spoke:
“Those who don’t want to go rescue the city, it’s not too late now, retreat immediately and flee for your lives.”
The duck looked at it in surprise.
—The enemy is coming, and you’re saying something like that?
“Five teams sent to rescue the royal city have already been intercepted and killed along the way.”
“Everyone, this is a road of no return.”
“If you want to leave, do so now!”
The mountain king urged.
The duck looked at the demons and saw the monkey scratching its fleas in annoyance, the wild boars bumping noses with each other, the wolf pack silent, and the fox laughing a few times.
The pheasant next to it was a bit unruly, jumping onto the mountain king’s shoulder and shrieking:
“Stop the chatter, take us to the main city!”
—None of the animals fled!
The duck was extremely surprised.
“Are you fleeing?” The mountain king turned its head, asking the duck, whose face was filled with surprise.
“No, I am going to the royal city.” The duck said.
The mountain king nodded and roared loudly:
“Since we’re all going to die anyway, we might as well go fight a good battle.”
“…” The duck dared not say more.
We’re all going to die anyway?
Brother, do you even know what you’re saying?
In an instant.
A monster silently appeared in front of the post station.
—Its neck was covered in long and short tentacles, and its entire body was covered in purple fur, looking at first glance like it was wearing a purple cloak.
“You can’t go anywhere, just die here.”
The monster said softly.
Its long and short tentacles instantly released a dozen rays of light, flying towards the demons.
The demon crowd fell into chaos.
The mountain king’s claws glowed with a cyan phantom, and with a single swipe, it batted away a ray of light, then pounced towards the monster.
The duck dodged while using its blade to help the wild boars block the rays.
—I had absorbed a lot of power from the “Mandala – Ouroboros” when fighting with the Black Man earlier.
And just now, I absorbed the power of that demonic fire.
All of this has been transformed into elements—
The duck simply gave them all to Bai Di.
This law-type life form, who had been operating the cannon, had actually gained a lot of inspiration from Valhalla’s cannon.
I could feel his strength increasing.
Giving him all the elements could be considered a repayment for him undertaking the position of a “true creation”.
Moreover, he has always been by my side, helping a lot!
“Thank you.”
Bai Di said with delight, “How about I come out and fire a shot?”
“That’s not good, your cannon is a technology-side cannon, it doesn’t quite fit the current battlefield style.” The duck hesitated.
Thud.
With a resounding thud, the mountain king was sent flying.
The surrounding demons were in disarray, fighting individually, haphazardly releasing various attack spells.
But these spells were all blocked by the monster.
“…Alright, fire a shot, control the force, and don’t expose your full strength.”
The duck said.
Bai Di whispered, “Be careful, I’m making my move—”
The duck cooperatively raised its hand and shouted at the monster:
“Invincible, super powerful Qigong Wave!”
A white light erupted from its back, instantly striking the monster, obliterating more than half of its body. The remnants spun and flew away, landing far on the other side of the street. A prompt appeared in the void:
“You fired a cannon shot.”
“This comes from your pháp tướng ‘Jailer’s Cage – Bone Temple of the Regent’.”
The duck was somewhat satisfied.
The attack power was well controlled!
Just then, the tiger demon rushed over, hastily stuffing the token into the duck’s hands.
“No, this is a trap.”
Its head was drenched in cold sweat, one hand clutching the duck, the other pressing against the Eight Trigrams array on the wall.
“A trap? Hey, Brother Tiger, what are you doing?”
The duck couldn’t help but ask.
It saw that token light up.
The Eight Trigrams array also emitted a “buzzing” sound.
They were resonating!
The tiger demon looked deeply at the duck and said,
“We’ll cover your retreat, you hurry to the main city.”
The duck looked at the other demons.
The demons all nodded together.
“Brother Duck, fight well for us.” The pig demon said with red eyes.
“Go!” The tiger demon began to infuse its demon energy into the Eight Trigrams array.
Seeing that the Eight Trigrams array was about to activate spatial teleportation—
Clack.
A soft click.
The duck threw the token out, which hit the wall and bounced to the ground.
The teleportation immediately ceased.
All fluctuations slowly dissipated.
“Didn’t you want to go to the main city to fight? Regretting it now?”
The tiger demon stared at the duck, its expression unfriendly.
“Brother, it’s just a fight, no need to be so tragic.” The duck said.
Its gaze passed over the tiger demon and looked into the distance.
Thump.
Thump.
Thump!
The ground vibrated without end.
From the east, west, south, and north, three-eyed giants with gray skin slowly approached the post station.
—It really was a trap.
They surrounded the post station, looking down at the demons, motionless.
A cold and ruthless voice echoed in the void:
“You little demons, do you think you can overturn the heavens?”
Before the words finished falling.
The duck’s expression suddenly shifted.
Rows of faint characters swiped across the void:
“The current main history has entered a collapse node.”
“The verification of ‘that’ sequence has been obtained, the connection is complete, and the historical mission of the Eternal Poem has begun to be jointly activated.”
“Please survive this encirclement.”
“If you can survive, you will receive the corresponding mission.”
“To be clear, this mission is related to your mission ‘Slay All Enemy Demons’, and the reward is extremely generous.”
“Start now!”
The duck looked at the words “reward is extremely generous” and felt an inexplicable excitement.
The sequence was very rigorous!
It wouldn’t speak such words lightly!
“Suddenly I’m motivated… Of course I have to survive…”
A new keyword, “Motivated Duck!”, popped up on the duck’s head with a “clunk”.
“Come on! Let’s fight!”
The duck roared, leaping up and shouting into the air.
With the power of the keyword “Motivated Duck!”, it was now incredibly invigorated, its fighting spirit soaring unprecedentedly. All its attributes increased by 10%, its feathers became more vibrant, and its speeches became more captivating.
In the sky.
That cold, ruthless voice spoke again:
“Overestimating yourselves.”
“—But you still have one last chance to survive.”
“I will let you go to the royal city of humans, but you must act as my insider and provide me with information about the royal city.”
“Make a wise choice.”
“Otherwise, this is your doom!”
The duck seemed to not hear anything, turned to face the demons, and spoke:
“Everyone.”
“You are probably not its match. I now want to use your power, and I hope you will allow it.”
“Of course,” the tiger demon said magnanimously, “It’s death anyway. Just tell me how to use it, and I’ll allow it.”
“Let’s do it.” The monkey shouted.
“Do it!” The pack of wolves howled.
“I’ll follow you!” The pheasant screeched.
Seeing the resolute determination of the birds and beasts, the duck drew its knife and made a cut in the void.
In an instant.
Every bird and beast shed a feather.
“You have defeated the beasts, and you can now use them to fight.”
The duck’s expression was somewhat complex.
These beasts shared a certain fate with it; it didn’t want them to die.
But they were absolutely no match for the bizarre life forms.
Then—
It could only turn them into bizarre creatures!
And then restore them afterwards!
The duck’s figure moved, and its wings formed a mudra.
—Phasms descend!
Gatekeeper’s Prison – Deputy Bone Temple.
Endless bones shrouded the entire world of the Dharma Form.
At the same time.
The defeated beasts were fused into one by the duck using “Mandala – Ouroboros,” and then transformed into a staff with the power of its Dharma Form.
This was a wooden staff carved with various birds and beasts, light but possessing a peculiar power.
“Staff of Myriad Beasts.”
“Apocalyptic-class artifact.”
“Belongs to the Dharma Form ‘Jailer’s Cage – Bone Temple of the Regent’, is a part of the Dharma Form, and can be used to cast ‘Random Calamity’.”
“—If it weren’t for the sequences on them, the staff would not reach this level of power.”
The duck was not in a hurry to use the staff, but instead looked up at the sky.
“We are all bizarre, if you have the guts, come out and fight.”
It shouted loudly.
In the sky.
That voice gently uttered a single word:
“Die.”
The four giants simultaneously formed hand seals.
Their spells were cast almost instantaneously.
The next second.
A mysterious fluctuation enveloped the entire city.
The duck immediately sensed an extreme ominous sign.
“Bai Di!”
It cried out urgently.
“I know!” Bai Di raised the ‘Omnipotent’ heavy cannon and fired a full shot into the sky.
The world seemed to stand still.
Boundless darkness descended from the sky.
The entire city was obliterated.
In this destruction, only the “Omnipotent”‘s cannon shot streaked across the sky, leaving a white line in its wake.
Under the protection of this white line, the duck in the post station was temporarily safe.
But if the bombardment ended—
The duck roared, “Another shot!”
Bai Di did not respond.
A faint ripple enveloped him, freezing him in place.
A line of faint characters appeared before the duck’s eyes:
“The enemy has cast a bizarre-side spell:”
“Take and give.”
“Seal, surging technique.”
“Description: You must defeat the caster in a certain domain before you can use all your skills.”
The duck’s pupils shrank.
This was simply impossible to survive.
What a terrifying emergence technique of the bizarre!
One must defeat the opponent to use one’s skills.
But—
If one cannot use skills, how can one defeat the opponent?
If one can defeat the opponent without using skills, then unsealing and restoring the use of skills would be meaningless.
This level of emergence technique—
The opponent was at least B-class.
Moreover, it had never appeared from beginning to end, and I had no information whatsoever.
Wait!
“You must defeat the caster in a certain domain”!
The opponent not showing up was precisely to make me completely clueless, knowing nothing, and even less how to defeat them!
The key here is “a certain domain.”
What should I do?
Deep in the sky, that voice spoke again:
“A mere C-class bizarre entity, daring to meddle in this business?”
“Die.”
I’m going to die!
Good Duck, completely defenceless, paused for a moment and then suddenly cried out loudly:
“In the realm of human cuisine!”
“I—”
“Roast with fruitwood—”
“Sliced and served with lotus leaf pancakes, sweet bean sauce, shredded green onions, and cucumber slices—”
“It will definitely taste better than you!”
The world was silent for a moment.
Rumble—
The collapse of the spell caused bursts of intense sound in the void.
Several lines of faint glowing text quietly appeared:
“You won!”
“—Even though you haven’t seen it, human taste buds would indeed find duck more delicious than it.”
“All your skills are unsealed.”
“Start fighting!”
The heavy cannon once again unleashed a searing white line, piercing through the sky and shooting towards the unknown enemy.
At the same time.
Good Duck waved the Staff of Myriad Beasts, roaring at the four giants as if venting:
“You scared me to death just now!”
“How dare you use such a trick to kill a duck like me!”
“Do you have no shame?!”
A gleam of light appeared on the staff.
“Random Calamity” activated!
The four giants stood still, but all began to bleed from their noses at the same time.
