Gates of the Myriad Realms Chapter 710

Shen Ye walked out of the bar and straight across the street.

He sat down in the shade of a large tree, looking down at the knife in his hand.

The blade was like water, reflecting his face.

Suddenly.

A past phrase surged into his mind.

“You’re so lonely.”

Countless figures appeared in his memory, then quickly faded away.

No.

There were too many enemies, too powerful, he really didn’t want to drag anyone else into this mess.

—Even history was created by them.

The whole world was their testing ground; they just observed everything unfold, and seized all the results when the time was right.

How was he supposed to play this?

He couldn’t win!

Shen Ye pondered silently.

After a moment.

Lines of faint small text quietly popped up, interrupting his thoughts:

“The term ‘Living Ancestor’ is activating, preparing to take effect.”

“This is a term you co-created with the Dharma Realm.”

“Description: Each time you defeat the opponent, your bond with them deepens, until you cannot be separated.”

“Congratulations.”

“You have thwarted the ‘Original Demon”s assassination plan and killed it once.”

“A bond has been formed between you:”

“Forced Summoning.”

“You can summon it to a certain place, once a day.”

All the small text vanished.

Shen Ye looked towards the bar.

“Ah… a bit unexpected…”

He murmured.

A shadowy figure, covering the sky, appeared above the bar.

It was the twisted corpse tree!

Or, rather—

It was the monsters’ Dharma Form!

Intense magical fluctuations emanated from the ephemeral corpse tree.

Shen Ye held up his knife and formed a hand seal with one hand.

Dharma Form—

Gatekeeper’s Cage: Grand Sacrifice!

An endless array of white bones formed a palace behind him.

“Come on.”

Shen Ye whispered.

However, the next second—

The corpse tree Dharma Form opposite him disappeared.

The bartender he had just killed was resurrected, leaning against the bar door, looking at him.

“You’re alive?”

Shen Ye asked.

“Excellent swordsmanship, but meaningless—under our Dharma Form, life and death cannot dictate our destiny.” The bartender said.

Big trouble.

The opponent had revived to full strength.

If these monsters could revive indefinitely—

Humans had no hope at all.

“May I presumptuously ask, is your name ‘Original Demon’?” Shen Ye asked.

“How did you know?”

“That’s my little secret.”

“Baxter, you have no way out. Hand over the future intelligence quickly.”

“What if I refuse?”

The bartender, named Original Demon, walked towards Shen Ye step by step.

The aura of that corpse tree lingered around it.

—So, what was the enhancement the Dharma Form gave it?

Shen Ye pondered, stroking the Blood Ox Ring on his hand.

This was the enhancement “Gatekeeper’s Cage: Grand Sacrifice” gave him—

As long as the enemy attacked, it would continuously supply him with vitality, until the enemy could no longer bear it.

“Let me be clear, life and death mean nothing to me. If you resist, the only outcome is death.”

Original Demon said.

Shen Ye gripped his long knife.

The next instant.

Both sides disappeared at the same time, meeting in the street in a flash.

The long knife was raised—

But Original Demon didn’t defend at all, and directly reached out to grab Shen Ye’s heart.

Shen Ye had to change his move.

Clang!

A metallic clash.

Shen Ye flew back dozens of meters, his gaze falling on the opponent’s hand.

The hand had turned into sharp claws, and when it clashed with the long knife, it made his tiger’s mouth ache.

—It could withstand his knife purely with its body!

“Your swordsmanship is indeed good, but you only need to make one mistake, and you’ll die.”

Original Demon said.

“I won’t make mistakes.” Shen Ye said.

Original Demon stopped.

Suddenly—

A dense series of “ding-ding-dong-ding-ding” sounds rang out from its body.

—All were the sounds of blades cutting into its body.

One breath.

Two breaths.

Three breaths.

The thin lines on its body expanded.

Original Demon was cut into dozens of pieces, scattered across the ground.

But the next second.

All its body parts reassembled into Original Demon.

“I can make countless mistakes, do you understand now?”

It asked.

Shen Ye thought deeply and muttered to himself, “Monsters that can revive… there seem to be many in games.”

“I remember the first level of Double Dragon had a monster that could revive.”

“But your advantage is endless revival—”

“At least you’ve revived twice, and your strength hasn’t diminished at all.”

Original Demon said, “Exactly. This isn’t a secret, but a fact you must acknowledge.”

The conversation.

It had run its course.

Now it was time for Shen Ye to make a decision.

But he still said:

“One last question, if you can answer it, I’ll answer yours seriously too.”

“Ask away.” Original Demon said.

“Why are you so patient with me? Logically, with your strength and your subordinates, you could completely attempt to destroy everything about me.” Shen Ye said.

“Such a thing happened once,” Original Demon replied, “that soul had a secret art and self-destructed.”

“So you didn’t get the intelligence?” Shen Ye asked.

“Yes,” Original Demon’s tone grew impatient, “now it’s my turn to ask you—what is the future intelligence you obtained?”

“I won’t tell you.” Shen Ye said.

The whole world was silent for a breath.

Boom—

Boundless evil aura surged from Original Demon’s body.

“You’re asking for death.”

The madness and brutality in its eyes could no longer be suppressed, and its body trembled slightly, as if it was about to attack.

Shen Ye, however, looked indifferent and said:

“There are no you in the future, only the four races of humans, elves, orcs, and undead.”

This sentence was like a switch.

All the momentum on Original Demon vanished, and its hands swiftly formed a spell seal like afterimages.

The four demons hidden in the void also appeared.

They simultaneously made the spell seal.

Lines of faint words appeared before Shen Ye’s eyes:

“Please be careful.”

“Thirty-six types of lie detection spells have hit you and are taking effect.”

Original Demon said in a deep voice:

“Say what you just said again.”

Shen Ye didn’t resist and repeated the words honestly.

Original Demon was somewhat incredulous.

“Impossible… mere humans are as weak as ants, how could…”

“You’re lying!”

It sharply exclaimed.

Shen Ye shrugged.

—You’re using so many spells to monitor, don’t you have a clue whether I’m lying or not?

Original Demon said, “You must be hiding something, the future absolutely won’t—”

Before it finished speaking, there was a “clunk” sound, and a brand new term appeared above Shen Ye’s head:

“Future Prophet.”

“Description: Regarding all things in the future, the owner of this term possesses exclusive interpretation rights, absolutely no falsehoods.”

For a moment.

The scene fell into dead silence.

Both sides looked at the term, processing the meaning it represented.

Shen Ye quickly reacted.

—This term, he deserved it!

The “future” only had the good duck and the Dharma Realm. They were currently exploring some large human cities in the nightmare world of multiple universes.

At the same time.

The races of the nightmare world were humans, elves, orcs, and undead.

This was absolutely true!

But the truly interesting part was here.

The historical fragments of the “past,” the Pipa Dachaun of the “present,” and the nightmare world of the “future” were already mutually influencing and capable of change at any time.

This was because—

His three avatars were in the “past,” “present,” and “future” respectively.

If he released the nightmare world in the “future,” then he could certainly say in the “past” that the “future” had the four races of humans, etc.

—Because it was true!

So, in the historical fragments of the “past,” he could be completely called a “prophet.”

He had become the “anchor” of time and space!

“You—you stay in this world, don’t leave, we’ll be back for you soon.”

Original Demon finished speaking, then, taking the four demons with it, rushed into the sky and vanished.

Shen Ye looked up at the sky, lost in thought.

Today’s intelligence must have thrown these monsters into panic and turmoil.

What would they do?

He didn’t know.

But it didn’t matter if he didn’t know.

In any case—

He had bought himself some more time to further refine his swordsmanship.

“Can’t kill…”

“Tsk, can I create a swordsmanship that ‘can definitely kill the enemy’?”

“…Worth a try.”

Shen Ye muttered to himself, turning and walking towards the sea.

It seemed he had found a clue.

These monsters feared no death.

But if there was truly a swordsmanship that allowed “the enemy to die when killed, and never revive again,” then the monsters would feel threatened.

This was the first step to defeating them.

He needed to quickly think about how to construct such a swordsmanship!

He walked and pondered, soon disappearing into the sea, his whereabouts unknown.

On the other side.

The End of Entropy, the Other Shore Great Ship.

The young Shen Ye stood at the bow of the ship, continuously urging the great ship forward, flying towards the depths of endless void.

—The enemy ships were thrown further and further behind.

It seemed they were safe.

The young Shen Ye sat at the bow, thinking and muttering to himself:

“Killing those monsters who fear no death…”

“Maria, do you think such swordsmanship exists?”

Maria’s voice responded: “No.”

“Never?”

Shen Ye asked unwillingly.

“Yes,” Maria replied, “They are high-dimensional beings, favored darlings of the laws of nature, holding the secret of intersecting higher laws.”

“—Human swordsmanship is low-dimensional, fundamentally unable to kill them.”

Low-dimensional.

This word caught Shen Ye’s attention.

He felt a flash of inspiration come and go in his mind, but he couldn’t grasp it.

How…

To do it?

The young Shen Ye fell into deep thought.

“Don’t waste your effort,” Maria advised, “Throughout history, countless heroes and warriors have indeed defeated them in one or two engagements.”

“But in the end, humanity always lost.”

“Because humans are three-dimensional life forms, while they were born in the Dharma Realm and can naturally utilize countless laws.”

“This is a difference in dimension.”

“It’s like a two-dimensional flat character, no matter how hard they try, they can’t understand the power of a three-dimensional world.”

Shen Ye was surprised and said, “So, according to you, it should be very simple.”

“Simple?”

Maria looked at him as if he were an idiot, and said,

“Before the End of Entropy, everything was firmly controlled by them. You actually say defeating them is simple?”

“That’s right,” Shen Ye stood up, his expression completely different from before, “The End of Entropy has arrived.”

He drew the Youhuang Blade—

—The blade existed in the past, in the present, and in the future.

So every avatar could fight with this blade!

“In the End of Entropy, dead means dead, equivalent to ‘termination.’ Even they cannot revive again—”

“There’s no problem with that, right?”

Shen Ye said.

“That’s right, what do you want to say?” Maria asked confused.

“My dimension is too low, their dimension is very high, but the End of Entropy is higher than them.”

Shen Ye held the long knife level, unmoving.

“So I don’t have to be powerful.”

“—After all, humans are frail, but the methodologies and tools humans create are strong.”

As his words fell.

Faint, fragmented points of light suddenly appeared on the long knife, flickering erratically.

Maria looked at these points of light, and suddenly found herself speechless.

After a long while.

“Oh my God… Lord… they really didn’t misjudge him…”

She murmured softly.

At the same time.

Lines of faint small text appeared before the young Shen Ye’s eyes:

“You activated the term ‘Endless Serpent Ring, Harmonizer of All Dharmas,’ allocating elements from the current spacetime.”

“You collected the element ‘entropy death’.”

“This element has been integrated into your blade techniques ‘Ox Dismemberment’ and ‘Everlasting’.”

“From now on, your attacks will carry the ‘entropy death’ characteristic.”

All the small text vanished.

Shen Ye was silent for a long time, then suddenly said:

“Slow down.”

The Other Shore Great Ship immediately slowed down.

Before long.

Another large ship caught up from behind.

“Watch our ship carefully.”

Shen Ye instructed Maria, then shot through the long dark void, landing on the large ship controlled by the monsters.

Soul Orb and the many monsters had already noticed, waiting on the deck.

Shen Ye landed, stood firm, and waved to them:

“Hi.”

“Are you here to die?” Soul Orb asked.

“Soul Orb, I’ve come with sincerity.” Shen Ye said.

“What sincerity?” Soul Orb asked.

Shen Ye drew his long knife, showing it off:

“A gleaming, murderous knife, do you see it?”

On the ship.

All the monsters fell silent.

They looked at Shen Ye with eyes that seemed to say he was insane.

The knife.

Suddenly returned to its scabbard.

“Although I’ve preliminarily gained the ability to kill you all, I don’t want to fight you.”

“Because I love peace.”

Shen Ye said earnestly.

Soul Orb looked him up and down, hesitating, “As the only human in this entropy-ending era, have you gone mad and come here to seek death?”

“—I’ll grant your wish.”

It was about to strike, but was held back.

In the void.

Several figures appeared.

“Original Demon, why are you here?”

Soul Orb asked, surprised.

“I learned some bad news from past history, so I came here specifically.” Original Demon said.

Soul Orb grinned menacingly, “No matter what, after I kill him—”

Its hand was held back again.

“?” Soul Orb looked at Original Demon.

“In the End of Entropy, he is the only human. He cannot die.” Original Demon said with a complicated expression.

An inexplicable atmosphere spread across the ship.

The monsters looked at the young Shen Ye.

If humanity could continue to exist after the End of Entropy—

Then taking action now would not be a good idea.

—It would directly create an adversarial situation.

So now they needed to ease up and see what the other party intended.

“Speak, human, why have you come to our ship?”

Original Demon asked.

Shen Ye was silent for a few breaths, then suddenly laughed.

This was truly a very clever thing.

Who said their dimension was high?

His three bodies, traversing past, present, and future, seemed to be just a little bit higher than theirs.

Alright.

Seriously speaking—

The future him released the nightmare world;

The past him predicted the future situation;

So.

What was the present him supposed to do?

Under the gaze of all the monsters, Shen Ye spread his arms wide and said enthusiastically:

“Everyone.”

“You should all be my sons.”

“That way, you’ll definitely have a place in the future!”
