Gates of the Myriad Realms Chapter 693
bySmall square.
Shen Ye simply sat down on the steps.
Waiting—
The historical fragments had “died”, and the passengers on the ship should be returning soon.
A figure suddenly appeared.
Mi.
She stood on the railing, looking down at Shen Ye below, and said,
“Your little girlfriend severed the connection between us.”
“So you’ve sobered up,” Shen Ye replied.
“Do you regret it?” Mi asked.
“No—that was actually the power of the blade, you were never meant to be my slave,” Shen Ye said.
“Even if we turn our weapons against each other in the future?” Mi asked again.
“Yes,” Shen Ye said.
“Very good.” Mi lightly leaped and disappeared into the void.
Shen Ye smiled and continued to wait.
—He was waiting for the monsters to return, and also waiting for the contract to end.
Mi’s contract required mutual agreement to terminate.
But after a few breaths.
Mi still hadn’t initiated a request to terminate the contract.
Never mind.
I’ll do it then.
Shen Ye’s thoughts stirred, and he initiated a request to terminate the contract.
Time slowly passed.
A look of surprise gradually appeared on his face.
—Mi ignored him!
What was going on?
She was the judge of the Twisted Sanctuary, perhaps she was busy at the moment?
Never mind.
He’d deal with it later.
Shen Ye thought silently.
Suddenly.
The void opened again.
A continuously shifting monster landed on the square.
—The Soul-Possessing Orb had returned.
It noticed Shen Ye at first glance and said,
“Kid… your previous information was pretty good, but unfortunately, it wasn’t used.”
Another monster landed and also said, “That historical fragment seemed to have exerted itself too much and completely shattered, Hahaha!”
“Looks like the mission is completed,” Shen Ye echoed.
—His physical strength hadn’t fully recovered, so he just sat here and rested.
He didn’t feel like dealing with these guys at all.
Next.
More and more monsters returned to the small square.
But the atmosphere was a bit off.
The Soul-Possessing Orb continued to shift its form, but the subtle aura emanating from it and the other monsters converged tacitly.
—Like the silence before a hunt.
Shen Ye’s eyebrows twitched slightly.
Something was wrong.
These monsters were very strong, all at S-rank.
He hadn’t fully recovered.
If he was killed—
Wouldn’t this clone enter “entropy”?
“Kid!”
The Soul-Possessing Orb suddenly shouted,
“I’ve met the deputy leader of your slaughter squad—is your main leader human too?”
The monsters all looked at Shen Ye.
A long stream of faint glowing text flashed across Shen Ye’s eyes:
“You are under Honest Prayer detection;”
“You are under Lie Sensing monitoring;”
“Absurd Divination surrounds you, probing your words and actions;”
“…”
These monsters could get on the ship, in addition to their basic strength, they must have other abilities.
Like the Lord of Distortion.
Even his previous super S-rank skill didn’t do much damage to them, which showed that each of them had their own ace in the hole.
Shen Ye pondered, and a vague answer formed in his mind.
Was the matter of the hidden corpse exposed?
No.
If this matter was exposed, the monsters would never wait here for his answer.
It must be something else.
“Is the main leader… human too?”
This sentence seemed to contain the answer.
“You’re mistaken, our deputy leader is Baxter. Uh, Baxter is a vampire, not human.”
Shen Ye said.
The monsters looked at each other.
The atmosphere quietly changed.
“Is that so? He’s actually a vampire, I didn’t see it.”
The Soul-Possessing Orb stared at Shen Ye and said.
“Baxter’s disguise ability is quite good in history, earning him great renown; the magical world even descended special terms,” Shen Ye said.
He noticed the monsters’ expressions relax a bit.
Yes.
The deputy leader was indeed Baxter.
And there was indeed a vampire named Baxter—
When he spoke, he deliberately paused, creating a period-like break.
This yielded the following meaning:
There were two Baxters, the former being the deputy leader, and the latter being a vampire.
Although they were not the same person, the statement “Baxter is a vampire” was by no means a lie.
“Who is your great leader?”
The Soul-Possessing Orb asked.
Shen Ye said, “Our leader is a spirit.”
“A spirit?”
“That’s right, it commands all of us.”
“What kind of spirit specifically?”
“I don’t know if I can say—it’s good at eliminating everything, making all—uh—”
Shen Ye didn’t finish his sentence.
From the void behind him, wings burning with endless dark flames stretched out and covered his mouth.
Boundless aura emanated from the wings.
—S-rank!
At least S-rank power fluctuations!
“Excuse me, my subordinate is a big mouth, but my matters are not so easy to inquire about.”
A deep, hoarse duck quack echoed in the small square.
Seeing this display of power, the monsters actually relaxed.
“Hahaha, good, indeed not human—”
The Soul-Possessing Orb laughed loudly.
The monsters laughed and chatted, beginning to celebrate this victory.
—The historical figures didn’t get on the ship, so there would be no problems on the ship, and everyone would be safe.
Shen Ye could understand this point.
Then.
The reason they asked if his leader was human—
The two S-rank beings in the Slaughter Squad were not human, which meant that the Slaughter Squad would not get out of control, nor would they side with humans and secretly guide humans onto the ship.
Under the gaze of all the monsters.
Shen Ye hastily said,
“Excuse me, I shouldn’t have discussed our boss.”
“How many S-ranks do you have?” the Soul-Possessing Orb asked.
Shen Ye paused.
Would saying two mean that the monsters had completely figured out his hand?
Faint glowing words almost immediately appeared:
“God has joined the Slaughter Squad.”
It’s done!
“Our Slaughter Squad… uh… I don’t know if the boss allows me to say, but definitely no less than 3.”
Shen Ye said.
“Four?” another monster pressed.
“No less than four—”
Shen Ye was again covered by the duck’s mouth.
Three clones, plus Di.
Of course, it was no less than four.
“Excuse me, my subordinate is very useful, the only drawback is his big mouth.”
The duck’s deep voice sounded again:
“Stop prying into our affairs, everyone.”
The other side was quiet.
The monsters’ expressions were no longer ferocious, and there was no killing intent in their aura; they even looked somewhat refined.
—Four S-ranks.
Who would dare to easily provoke this team?
The world was theirs to roam.
Moreover, Shen Ye’s actions were meticulous; he didn’t say “four,” but rather “no less than four.”
This made people even more imaginative.
Before understanding the true strength of the Slaughter Squad, no one dared to act rashly.
The next second.
The Soul-Possessing Orb said, “No problem—this D-zone is yours, the Slaughter Squad, but you have to repair the hole struck by the historical fragments.”
One of the monsters beside it raised its hand and showed a card.
On the card was a depiction of a vast deck, and beyond the deck, boundless shattered void.
“E-zone (deck area).”
“The holder of this card is the deck authority of the Ship of the Other Shore, possessing all belongings on the deck.”
“Specific description: Not displayed.”
The Soul-Possessing Orb said,
“Repair that hole, and you will be acknowledged by the Other Shore and become one of the authorities on the ship.”
This information was very important!
“No problem, repairing it is a trivial matter.”
The duck’s deep voice resounded in the void.
A dead silence.
The duck suddenly realized—
Perhaps repairing that hole was not an easy task.
Otherwise, why hadn’t anyone come to occupy the D-zone?
But the words were already out.
“It’s settled then, I’m sure you can successfully repair that hole, let’s all get along well in the future, hahahaha!”
The Soul-Possessing Orb laughed loudly.
But the good duck heard a telepathic message from it:
“Humans are not to be trusted.”
“Although you are strong, you must also guard against this human, it’s best to sign this agreement, then we can all rest assured.”
An agreement unfolded before the duck’s eyes:
“Any human subordinate shall not traverse time, shall not shuttle through various historical fragments, shall not actively contact beings of bizarre levels, shall not sit there idly, and shall not wait for the strong members of the organization to win victory.”
“—Joint Protocol of all crew members of the Other Shore.”
Would they feel at ease if this was signed?
The good duck sneered, flapped its wings, and left its soul imprint on the agreement.
The agreement was signed successfully!
As soon as it signed, the monsters immediately sensed it.
No one looked at Shen Ye again. —Someone else’s dog was on a leash, used for guarding, wouldn’t bite randomly, and wouldn’t cause trouble.
There was no need to worry about that.
“Until next time.”
The Soul-Possessing Orb retreated a few steps and then suddenly disappeared.
The other monsters also disappeared one after another.
After all the monsters had completely vanished, Shen Ye leisurely found an inner cabin, walked in, and closed the door.
Poof!
He spat out a mouthful of blood, knelt on the ground, and gasped for breath.
From his lower abdomen, the warm baby complained:
“You haven’t recovered yet, and you’re already overusing your abilities. I think you don’t want to live.”
“Sorry.”
Shen Ye leaned against the wall, sitting there, utterly exhausted.
—Maintaining the duck’s super S-rank aura fluctuation indeed required activating “Future Traveler” a few more times.
This caused his almost healed body to be severely injured again.
Fortunately, the entire situation was maintained.
Now.
For a short time, the monsters should no longer pay attention to him.
“Should I come out and get you some food?”
Seventh Uncle asked telepathically.
—The meals it made possessed healing effects, a good way to recover.
Shen Ye was about to agree, but then he closed his mouth again.
The Ship of the Other Shore could not be destroyed.
The historical fragment was sent up by countless powerhouses in the past, causing a hole to blast open.
Even so, the historical fragment itself shattered.
So this cabin door could be trusted.
Knowing this, he felt a bit relaxed after entering the room.
This was wrong.
It was utterly wrong to blatantly let Seventh Uncle out and expose that he possessed such a truth-creation artifact.
“Don’t come out.”
Shen Ye transmitted.
“Why?” Seventh Uncle asked.
“I don’t know, just don’t come out,” Shen Ye said.
“But why?” Seventh Uncle asked in confusion.
“I suspect there’s something in here.”
“A ghost?”
“No.”
Shen Ye took a deep breath and suddenly activated the term in the narrow and cramped room—
“Daddy!”
—This was a taunt-type term.
The next instant.
A muffled roar suddenly echoed in the void:
“Father.”
Someone yelled “Father”!
A burly figure materialized from the void, veins bulging on its forehead, eyes filled with rage.
—This was a tiger-headed monster with a human body and four arms!
It lunged straight at Shen Ye.
Shen Ye drew his blade to meet it, without any defenses, slashing with all his might.
A series of cuts and thuds echoed.
The entire room was splattered with exploding blood mist.
Two figures fell at the same time.
In the void, a hand quietly reached out and placed a ring on Shen Ye’s finger.
Shen Ye opened his eyes and looked at the ring.
Faint glowing words kept appearing:
“You released the term ‘Dad’.”
“The taunted target entered a rage state and began to attack you.”
“Your clone, Young Shen Ye, used the Dharma Aspect ‘Gatekeeper’s Cage · Zisheng Sacrifice’, marking the enemy as a ‘diner’.”
“‘Diners’ must pay vitality for attacking you.”
“The ‘diner”s vitality is overdrawn, and the mark transforms into ‘dish’.”
“Seventh Uncle ate the ‘dish”s soul.”
“The vitality paid by the target is stored in the ring for your use.”
Shen Ye raised his hand and glanced at the ring.
The bloodline indicator on the ring was depleted in an instant.
—The previous ring, which stored the vitality of the Twisted Lord, had been exhausted when facing multiple activations of the term “Future Traveler.”
This time.
There wasn’t much vitality stored in the ring.
—This monster isn’t good enough.
Shen Ye sighed, sat up, and felt the changes in his body.
His injuries had healed slightly, just a tiny bit.
“Seventh Uncle, leave the head for me.”
Shen Ye said.
The gnawing sound in the void disappeared.
“You eat it too?” Seventh Uncle asked in surprise.
“No, I want to ask some questions.”
“Okay.”
The moment the monster’s head was brought out, it suddenly transformed into sparkling motes of light and vanished.
—It was directly “terminated.”
Shen Ye patted his head, feeling a little dejected.
Just now, the corpse was still under Seventh Uncle’s control, being enjoyed as a ‘dish’.
Once Seventh Uncle stopped eating it, the spell ended.
The corpse directly entered entropy.
Tsk.
It was hard even to ask a question.
“Those monsters haven’t given up on dealing with you,” Seventh Uncle said.
“Perhaps they are very interested in my Slaughter Squad and want to have a showdown with us,” Shen Ye said.
—But the Slaughter Squad only had Shen Ye.
God would not act.
Aside from building ships, God never acted.
“You need to be careful now.”
Seventh Uncle warned.
“I know, Seventh Uncle, don’t show up. Just arrange some food and put it in the Dharma Aspect; I’ll get it myself.”
“Okay.”
After a few breaths.
Shen Ye reached out and pulled out a box of “Seventh Uncle’s Love Bento.”
He opened it.
Inside were braised goose, chicken drumsticks, pig trotters, shredded pork with pickled cabbage, braised pork, and white rice.
Plus two braised eggs.
Shen Ye started eating immediately.
He gobbled down the entire bento until it was completely clean, then drank a bottle of iced soda, and finally let out a satisfied sigh.
A line of faint glowing text quietly appeared:
“You have healed.”
That’s good.
Shen Ye mumbled while locking the door and then pulling out the Dark Radiance Blade.
“I wonder if there’s anyone else here.”
The long blade pointed into the room.
—Super S-rank swordsmanship, Quietus!
Everything in the room turned into nothingness, and two or three screams rang out.
Vanishment of light points flew into the sky, gradually dimming.
Under this strike, no matter who it was, they had been forcibly entropic!
Shen Ye sheathed his blade.
—Only then did he completely relax.
The room should be safe now.
“They still didn’t let you off the hook,” Seventh Uncle said.
“Rather than saying they are targeting me, it’s more like they are very wary of the ‘Slaughter Squad’ and want to extract more information from me,” Shen Ye said.
—These hidden monsters were not very strong.
They should be subordinates of those big monsters, skilled in stealth, so they followed him into the room, wanting to gather intelligence.
He still didn’t answer that question well.
He had no information, so he could only downplay the repair of that hole.
This probably aroused the monsters’ curiosity and covetousness.
What now?
Shen Ye was silent for a few breaths, then suddenly opened the door and walked out quickly.
He walked towards the direction of the hole.
“What are you doing?” Seventh Uncle asked.
“Killed their subordinates, I don’t know if they will escalate or just give up for now—”
“Must prepare early.”
Shen Ye said.
In fact, strictly speaking—
He was now facing all the monsters on the ship alone!
There could be no more侥倖!
“It seems small tricks don’t work on these guys…”
“We have to get serious.”
He muttered in a low voice, walking quickly to the hole and placing his hand on it.
Several lines of faint glowing text immediately popped out:
“Do you want to fix this hole?”
“Gold alone is not enough; you must provide something equivalent to the object that damaged the hull.”
“Note: If the difference is not too much, it can be compensated with gold.”
Equivalent—
That historical fragment was lifted by countless powerhouses from past eras!
Resources on the ship were scarce.
Where could he find another item of equal value?
No wonder no monster ever came to occupy the D-zone!
Shen Ye was silent for a moment, then suddenly remembered something.
The historical fragment’s corpse!
The historical fragment and the historical fragment’s corpse should be equivalent!
Even if there was a slight difference, it could be compensated with gold!
This matter also had an advantage.
—Without generating new future terms, the monsters would have no way of discovering the secret he and God protected!
“Merge.”
Shen Ye placed his hand on the large hole and silently thought in his mind.
The Ship of the Other Shore sensed his will and instantly released a golden glow that entered his ring.
Countless gold disappeared.
The historical fragment’s corpse also disappeared.
The ship’s wall was suddenly repaired as new.
At the same time.
Shen Ye had an extra card in his hand.
“Inner Cabin (D-zone).”
“The holder of this card is the authority of the inner cabin of the Ship of the Other Shore, possessing all belongings in the inner cabin.”
A round of applause suddenly came from behind.
The Soul-Possessing Orb’s voice resounded:
“Even with all the resources of the entire ship, we couldn’t repair this hole.”
“It seems your Slaughter Squad is very rich.”
