Myriad Realms Gatekeeper

```

"Muddled—"

His voice abruptly ceased, and he vanished along with it.

In the dark abyss.

Every piece of rock face;

Every single stone;

Even that massive statue—

All matter formed frost, solidifying into mirrors.

Shen Ye, having cast "Existence in Mirror," leaped out from within one.

—In the same world, there could only be one of him!

Thus, the "Insect Body" with its spatial ability sealed was switched into the frost mirrors.

The king species was sealed inside the mirror world again!

Shen Ye stood on the sculpture's fingertip, holding a Spell Seal, unmoving.

Crash!

Crash!

Crash!

The sound of breaking icicles echoed from all directions.

But as soon as the icicles shattered, the instant the king species flew out, it was immediately sealed into another mirror!

And the broken icicles would freeze back into a mirror instantaneously!

—The entire world was a vast, seamless field of ice mirrors!

The king species had lost its spatial ability.

Now—

No matter from which direction the king species broke through, it would be immediately swapped back in!

"How did you think of this,"

The great Skeleton lay prostrate in admiration.

At that moment, the Technique Spirit quietly appeared and spoke:

"It's Dharma Aspect has been sealed."

"Excellent," Shen Ye said with pleasure.

"But there's a problem."

"What is it?"

"It's too strong, I'm in the process of sealing its Technique ability—it will take more time to complete the seal, and if any mishap occurs during this process, all our efforts will be in vain."

Shen Ye sighed and could only continue casting Spell Seals to buy time.

The plan was ideal.

But, the sound of breaking frost grew more frequent, and many places saw blocks of ice shatter completely, revealing bare rock faces behind them.

—Even the speed of frost formation couldn't keep up anymore!

In the blink of an eye.

A figure suddenly emerged.

With eight long insect tails trailing behind and numerous slender arms upon its head.

—The true form of the king species!

Shen Ye's expression changed.

Not good, with its true form arriving—

The Technique Spirit's voice suddenly intervened:

"Its body has come according to instinct, not under the control of its soul, don't be afraid!"

Before the words ended, the voice of the king species overpowered the Technique Spirit:

"Wretched slave, watch this Technique—it will make you realize who you are!"

The true form of the king species suddenly burst into piercing shrieks.

An immense, irresistible surge of power erupted from its form, soaring into the sky, piercing through the rock walls, with no end in sight.

What?

What did this true form do?

Shen Ye was perplexed when suddenly he heard someone shout with rage:

"Stop!"

—Xu Xingke!

He grabbed the true form of the king species, shooting into the sky and instantly piercing through the rock wall, disappearing from sight.

Thankfully, my teacher lent a helping hand!

But what exactly did the insect's true form do?

"Even if you capture my body now, it's too late,"

That mocking voice of the king species rang out once more:

"This is a Destruction Technique stored in my body, the power my true form possesses."

"—To make two planets collide."

"Hurry and release me, or your planet will collide with another named 'Five Desires,' and everything will perish with no hope of salvation."

Before Shen Ye could respond, the urgent voice of the Technique Spirit resounded: "Don't listen to it, just hold on a little longer, its Technique ability is about to be sealed!"

"..." Shen Ye.

No wonder my teacher was so furious.

Yet—

Choice one known: release the king species, and everyone dies;

Choice two: if the planets collide after binding it, then everyone dies; but if there's a way to solve the collision, everyone lives.

```

"Definitely option two!"

"I'm not so naive!"

More importantly—

From now on, I can't just stay on the defensive."

"It's about to be sealed and still so arrogant!"

Shen Ye's hand movements changed the Spell Seal.

The insect body Shen Ye that had just flown out from the Frost Mirror suddenly stiffened.

The scenery around him shifted.

He was once again sealed inside the world of the Frost Mirror.

But this time, it was different.

"You've entered this body too? What are you trying to do?"

The king species asked, wary.

—It had already felt that Shen Ye had chosen this body, his soul having returned to its flesh once more.

Shen Ye said nothing, deftly drew a frost longsword, and with all his might, stabbed himself clean through.

"That really hurts..."

Shen Ye grimaced, sucking in cold air.

In an instant, the king species took over the body, and said with a mocking tone, "Suicide? I won't allow you to perish with me. You can't die—but the agony will be yours to endure. This is the consequence of your arrogance."

"Impressive," Shen Ye praised.

The bug was truly formidable.

He had killed himself with that stab, but it could somehow bring him back to life.

Both were in one body, and neither could die! Discover hidden content at empire

But—

A faint light gathered into small characters, frantically updating:

"The Broad Cold Sword is drawing from your origin power."

"The origin power drawn this time will belong to you."

"Additionally."

"The target pierced by the Broad Cold Sword contains another existence. The Broad Cold Sword is drawing its origin power."

Shen Ye jumped up as if electrified, bellowing:

"You're stealing my strength!"

His voice came to an abrupt halt.

What followed was the joyous and excited voice of the Technique Spirit:

"The sealing is complete—most of its strength has been sealed by me!"

Shen Ye moved his body, finding it to be true.

The king species, the Cosmic Giant Insect, the legend known as the Dark Devourer, had been thoroughly sealed within his own body.

"Dare to seal me? Remember, your planets will collide, your civilization, and everything will turn to ash in destruction. "

"This is the demise of your human kind."

The king species said coldly.

"Pah." Shen Ye spat out a mouthful of blood, without responding.

He found a mirror, sat down against it, and started to breathe heavily.

Too tired.

Damn it.

This kind of hard and dangerous work, I will never—

A surge of overwhelming power suddenly burst forth from his body, creating a gust of wind that swept in all directions.

The Dharma Aspect automatically manifested, appearing behind him.

—The Lunar Palace!

"What's going on?"

Shen Ye turned his head, puzzled.

He only saw that upon the overlapping tiers of imperial palace walls and jade buildings, a crescent moon swiftly morphed into a full moon, casting a frost-white glow upon the entire land.

When he first advanced to the Second Realm of the Law Realm, Dharma Aspect was born with Frostfire, needing to wield a Broad Cold weapon in combat, devouring the enemy's Dharma Aspect origin, infusing it into the moon.

When the crescent became a full moon—

The Dharma Aspect was initially perfected, ready to advance to the Dharma Aspect Triple Layer Boundary at any moment!

No—

It's necessary to awaken the Dharma Eye to reach the Dharma Aspect Triple Layer Boundary.

He had long possessed the Dharma Eye.

So everything naturally fell into place—

In the void, luminescence formed into small characters:

"You have reached the Dharma Realm Triple Layer Boundary."

"Each attribute has increased by 10 points."

"Your Pupil Skill: Godslaught Catalyst is beginning to advance, it will take some time to complete."

"Special reminder:"

"The power you have drawn is too mighty to be absorbed all at once."

"It will soon burst you."

"The deed of your sealing the Dark Devourer suffices to shake the Myriad Realms."

"Find a way to survive. Should you live through this event, you will earn a 'name' recognized by the Law Realm."
