Myriad Realms Gatekeeper

```

The Chaos Spirit Light spoke with a heavy tone,

"Is that so?" Shen Ye said.

He closed his eyes.

Technique Spirit.

All the Seal of Fate lines surrounding his body emitted a faint light.

"I'm here," the Technique Spirit replied.

"I've already been restrained by it, I think... you should also take a rest for a while," Shen Ye said.

"Will it be irreparable?" the Technique Spirit asked with some concern.

"If you feel it's not going well, we can stop at any time," Shen Ye said.

"Alright, I'll listen to you—survival is indeed more important, I don't want to die either," the Technique Spirit said.

Before her words had faded, the Seal of Fate lines on Shen Ye's body suddenly dimmed.

In their place—

Were the insect race's Rune of Descent that covered his entire body.

At that instant,

Shen Ye had just fallen in front of the Chaos Spirit Light, about to be devoured by it.

"Die!"

The Chaos Spirit Light roared furiously, transforming into a massive light-formed skull, snapping at Shen Ye.

The world went silent for a moment.

Shen Ye's eyes shifted, and he suddenly transformed into a creature with vertical pupils.

A loud and dense chorus of insect sounds emanated from his body.

Shen Ye's mouth curled into a slight smirk as he tilted his head up to watch the approaching Sharpness Spirit Light.

"How rude..."

"I'm in the middle of negotiating a deal about freedom, and you interrupt my business and even want my life," he said.

—Indeed.

It was inside Shen Ye's body.

If Shen Ye died, it would have to die too!

Snap.

A light sound.

He pressed down with one hand against the downward biting Sharpness Spirit Light, his arm now covered in insect armor, impervious to the cutting Spirit Light.

His lips held a mocking smile.

But the smile gradually faded, replaced by an increasingly rich murderous aura.

Just as Shen Ye had anticipated—

The Chaos Spirit Light had taken away the true insect body of the king species.

And once the soul of the king species sensed that its body had been stolen, it would certainly rage.

On one hand,

The Chaos Spirit Light was killing its soul.

On the other,

The Chaos Spirit Light had stolen its body.

Double malice.

Double insult.

What would the Cosmic Giant Insect known as the Dark Devourer do?

"A disloyal Divine Artifact? Haha, it seems you really deserve such a title," Shen Ye said, his voice strange.

At this moment,

The king species took complete control of the body.

It raised its other hand, instantly clenched into a fist, and swung forward viciously—

A tumultuous roar of Shock and crumbling resounded through the air.

The sky full of Spirit Light was shattered by a punch, hitting the spatial Seal Barrier like artillery, scattering into fragments.

"Damn it, what is this!" the voice of the Chaos Spirit Light cried out in shock and anger.

The dispersed Spirit Light struggled to gather, forming a Spell Seal.

In an instant,

The desolate universe appeared all around—

—the entire Barrier space had been directly transported into the midst of the universe.

"Now you're done for, human; the universe is a terrifying place, aside from a few races—"

He hadn't finished speaking.

Shen Ye's hand now held a black sphere of light.

—He paid no heed to the other's words; instead, the darkness of the universe brought a touch of relaxation and comfort to his face.

The Runes of Descent that covered his body coalesced behind him into eight long tails.

And in his hand, the black sphere of light was crushed in one grasp.

Dharma Aspect Transformation: Fate Disarray!

This was the power of a higher plane that appeared only after a complete uplift of the Dharma Aspect in the Eighth Layer of the Dharma Realm!

Moreover, this was the Dharma Aspect Transformation of the king species Cosmic Giant Insect!

"My move is a fundamental transformation in nature, and its power will be maximized in the universe—"

The voice of the king species came from Shen Ye's mouth.

Gleaming deep red lines soared from the shattered sphere, twisting everything around them in the midst of the universe.

The newly coalesced Chaos Spirit Light, swept by the power of the Eightfold Realms' Dharma Aspect, rapidly solidified into a tangible form.

It had become a human man.

Human!

While he was still dazed, Shen Ye had already dashed forward, appearing in front of him.

Two bursts of Thunder Light erupted from between Shen Ye's hands.

```

In a brief moment.

— Apart from the place where the Chaos Spirit Light dwelt, within the sealed Barrier, two spheres of exploding Thunder Light had filled the area.

"Perish."

Shen Ye uttered a single word as he pressed both palms forward.

The world fell silent.

Only the boundless Thunder Light filled the entire void.

The human man was sent flying, turning into a bolt of swiftly retreating lightning, flying towards the depths of the cosmos.

His body was continuously destroyed by the lightning.

Both hands, both feet broke apart together.

The lower half of his body burst open.

The waist was shattered by the lightning.

The chest cavity exploded.

Only a head remained, screaming endlessly as it called out one Cursed Talisman after another:

"Dharma Aspect Transformation—"

"Rebirth anew."

Bang.

The head exploded.

The remnants scattered across the cosmos turned into particles of light, reassembling into a flicker of Aurora.

Shen Ye quietly appeared not far from it.

A menacing chorus of insect cries surrounded the Chaos Spirit Light.

"Worthless Divine Artifact, give my body back to me."

Focusing on the Chaos Spirit Light, Shen Ye, with the king species borrowing his body, spoke while forming the Spell Seals with both hands.

The Chaos Spirit Light gasped:

"...Kill that human boy in your body, and I will give it to you."

Shen Ye's murderous intent surged even more violently, and his expression grew increasingly furious.

This human boy had fought with all his might for the sake of survival, completing the Seal, coexisting.

This was combat.

Yet the Aurora took the opportunity to snatch away.

It had never really fought with him, nor did it have the courage to confront him directly.

It was a thief.

A coward, not fit to negotiate terms with him.

It deserved to die.

"You have never experienced the pain of life, that's why you are so arrogant and presumptuous..."

Shen Ye said softly, as his Spell Seals took form once more.

That black sphere quietly emerged.

The Chaos Spirit Light, seizing the moment quickly, as soon as it saw the black sphere, instantly remembered the excruciating pain it endured from being struck by lightning in human form just moments ago.

Damn it, never again to endure that torture!

"Flash back!"

The Chaos Spirit Light shouted.

The cosmos disappeared.

An insect and a light, returned above the city.

The next second.

"Take over his body, king species! Kill him for me, and I will give you your true form!"

The Chaos Spirit Light roared.

Shen Ye stood in midair and asked in a strange tone:

"What did you say?"

Having spoken, he then bared a smile, his mouth making a normal human sound: "A thief, yet wanting to provoke two mighty beings, not realizing that even if we were to duel, we would eliminate it first."

"Exactly," he said in the strange tone.

"So, lend me your body," in a normal tone.

"You really want to fight it?" in a strange tone.

"Are you underestimating me, or yourself?" in a normal tone.

In the Dharma Aspect.

The Underworld Lord Miket Tikaxiwa took a light sip of wine, letting out an almost imperceptible chuckle.

In the same instant.

Shen Ye regained control of his body, his Both Hand Seals complete.

The Dharma Aspect unfolded—

A majestic Jade Palace surfaced in the sky.

The moon burning with Frostfire hung high above the Imperial Palace, illuminating everything under the heavens.

Miket Tikaxiwa placed his hand on the palace wall.

A faint light emerged in small characters:

"This battle is based on a Triple Dharma Aspect, infused with all of Miket Tikaxiwa's Strength, causing the Dharma Aspect to leap beyond mortal confines and ascend to the Eightfold Realms in a single bound."

"With this full force, you have integrated it with—"

Shen Ye stood in the wind, extending one hand forward, forming a Spell Seal.

"Lifeless Lord·Existence in Mirror."

"Ah," the strange tone sounded, "this move again, truly headache-inducing."

What does an Existence in Mirror look like above the Eightfold Dharma Aspect?

The Chaos Spirit Light had not yet reacted when it found that everything around it had disappeared.

It stood within an endless grey-white wasteland.

The entire world was a mirror.

An Infinity of Mirrors.

No escape possible.
