Myriad Realms Gatekeeper

```

"You'll have to see to that yourself,"

"...Thank you, teacher," said Shen Ye.

"Also — I'm currently in Gui Xu, and I'll rush over to Jade Capital soon, so just stay hidden and wait for me,"

"Okay, teacher."

The communication was cut off.

Shen Ye continued to bow his head and eat.

After he was full, he stretched lazily, opened the door, and went out.

"Brother Shen, did you have a good rest?"

asked Tie Nan.

"Not bad," replied Shen Ye.

"Let me see — you've received the blessing of the resting room: 'Affinity,'" said Tie Nan.

"What's the effect?" Shen Ye asked.

"It's easier to gain others' trust and strike deals," replied Tie Nan.

"Brother Iron, I've always wondered, compared to other kinds of strength, just what do our gate powers amount to?" Shen Ye voiced the doubts hidden in his heart.

"Isn't it obvious? Our strength is the authority of the next era, the strongest,"

"About this resting room — "

"The strongest resting room, definitely capable of evading all pursuit," Tie Nan slapped his chest with a "smack smack" sound.

"And the effect of the blessing?"

"Who uses it knows! In fact, your gate power is certainly unique and very strong; there's nothing else in the world that can compare, it's just that it still needs to grow, doesn't it?"

Makes sense.

Shen Ye nodded inwardly.

Not just himself.

Presumably, Tie Nan's resting room could grow too.

"Alright, I'll be off. I'll come to Yujing Zoo for tea when I have the time,"

"If you really come, order some of those 100-yuan tender bamboo shoots at the park and personally feed them to them. All my girlfriends love those,"

"Them?" Shen Ye asked, puzzled.

"Hmm, them," Tie Nan nodded.

"Them" is not correct."

"That's you humans. As for us, continuation is our great mission," said Tie Nan solemnly.

"...Alright then."

Shen Ye left the Panda Agency and was teleported to the entrance of the Renjian Wudao Building.

He moved his body around and then suddenly shot upwards into the sky, flying straight up until he reached the top of the building.

"Technique Spirit Sister, loosen the seal just a little; I want to speak with the bug for a moment," said Shen Ye.

"Okay," a woman's voice responded.

In an instant,

Shen Ye felt a kind of thought emanating from his body, taking in the surroundings.

"Have you come out? Good, let's chat,"

said Shen Ye.

A buzzing sound arose from within him:

"I have nothing to talk about with you."

"Are you sure?" Shen Ye asked.

"Let me out."

"See, we do have something to talk about,"

"Let me out, and we can talk. Otherwise, there's nothing to talk about," the king species said impatiently.

In the void, a faint light quietly gathered:

"Gate power: The resting room's blessing: 'Affinity,' is taking effect."

Shen Ye's eyes narrowed slightly.

——Gate powers really are strange, huh? Even the king species has fallen for it unwittingly?

```

However, this was exactly in line with his own thoughts.

"I will of course release you, but you must make a contract with me, you shall not kill me afterwards," Shen Ye said.

"I agree to this point," the king species replied.

"Afterward, you cannot continue to explore the Great Tomb, as per the request of the Technique Spirit," Shen Ye said.

"That works for me, I just want my freedom," the king species replied.

"Good, then——"

Before Shen Ye could finish his sentence, it was as if something flashed past the surroundings.

The view in the sky was rapidly changing.

A majestic and expansive voice arose from the void, enveloping all within its reach:

"Spatial imprisonment."

Shen Ye found that the sky for hundreds of miles around was covered in colorful auras.

Now, there was no escape.

Within the endless colorful lights——

The voice of the Chaos Spirit Light once again appeared by Shen Ye's ear:

"Damnable boy, you've tarnished my reputation..."

Shen Ye ignored it, instead hurriedly said to the king species:

"We can discuss our matter later, I need to escape now,"

He clumsily raised his hand to cast a Spell Seal——

But faced with the mighty Chaos Spirit Light, such speed and technique were utterly inadequate.

Within the Dharma Aspect.

The Mother of Dark Skeletons, the King of Ghouls, the defeated Underworld Lord Miket Tikaxiwa put down his glass of red wine and slowly stood up, his eyes emitting pale white flames.

She braced a hand on her hat brim and reached another hand towards the sky, gently catching the Flying Snow that drifted from the palace walls.

The Flying Snow fell silently and peaceably.

There wasn't the slightest intention of the Dharma Aspect to tremble.

——What was he thinking?

Outside.

"Ridiculous, Song Yinchen was seduced by you, not heeding my words... Watch as I kill you to vent this anger,"

In this moment, the Chaos Spirit Light danced in the sky, even finding the leisure to circle around Shen Ye a few times.

Speaking seriously——

It would be ridiculously easy for it to kill a little fellow with Triple Layers of the Law Realm strength.

"Struggle, wail, fragile human!"

An attack Technique roared towards him.

Four human-shaped shadows rose from Shen Ye's body, each wielding weapons, and repelled the attack with all their might.

The Embrace of the Four Kings!

"Your Battle Armor isn't bad, but what use is it before me?"

The voice of the Chaos Spirit Light echoed around:

"Fragile humans, I am your master, yet you are so arrogantly self-conceited, it is truly laughable."

Bursts of colorful light radiated from it, forming an even stronger isolation barrier in the void.

——The outside world couldn't possibly discern the situation here!

Its killing intent gradually enveloped the area.

It was about to get serious.

Spirit Light shuttled through midair, condensing into numerous Curse Seal Runes.

"I haven't eaten a human before, let me consume you——it will replenish my strength, and also let Song Yinchen properly see your end,"

"Talkative, aren't you," Shen Ye spat, yet uncontrollably flew towards the other.

He wanted to move, wanted to use Technique, wanted to release the Dharma Aspect.

Unfortunately——

He was unable to successfully complete any of these actions.

"It's useless, lowly beings, your cowardice has been fully revealed, my natural restraint over you is like being crushed at the lowest level of life, with no chance to ever rebel against anything,"
