Myriad Realms Gatekeeper

A strange sense of satisfaction and achievement emerged in Charlotte's heart.

"No," she said with feigned impatience, "he only has the strength of the Triple Layers of the Law Realm, too weak."

"...There's really nothing to be done about that," Mo Ga Ru sighed.

For a professional of the Triple Layers of the Law Realm to occupy the third "Five Desires" seat indeed seems unjustifiable.

That would be a loss of face for the entire "Five Desires" world.

Charlotte continued:

"Given that we have to pursue the truth, we can only grant him this authority, but we cannot acknowledge him as one of the world's powerhouses."

"I think that's fair, it's the only way," agreed Mo Ga Ru.

"Do you want to go first, or shall I?"

"Doesn't matter."

Charlotte reached out and patted Shen Ye's left shoulder.

Mo Ga Ru immediately followed by patting his right shoulder.

"Remember, until your strength has increased to the Law Domain Seventh Layer, you must not reveal to anyone that you possess the 'Five Desires' authority," Mo Ga Ru cautioned. Read exclusive chapters at empire

"Otherwise, I will kill you," said Charlotte.

Shen Ye nodded his head in confusion.

——So what just happened?

He suddenly discovered a connection with the earth.

This was an exceedingly difficult sensation to describe, as if roots had grown from the soles of his feet, allowing him to continuously gather strength from deep within the earth.

The world seemed like a computer, linking itself to him through the earth, sending inquiries to his mind.

The content of the inquiry was—

"Considering the loss of two Prison Guards, you have received a recommendation from a Prison Guard and can start serving as a Prison Guard."

"Do you agree?"

Shen Ye looked at Mo Ga Ru and Charlotte.

Both were looking at him.

Yet the world mentioned a recommendation from "one" Prison Guard.

This matched exactly what Earth Mother had said.

——The Nine Aspects is not a Prison Guard!

But at this moment, it thought it was a Prison Guard!

He absolutely could not reveal this.

Otherwise, it might become clear to it.

"Agree," Shen Ye thought silently.

Mo Ga Ru and the Nine Aspects both sensed something.

"Another Prison Guard," said Mo Ga Ru.

"Yeah, although his strength is a bit too weak, we finally have three Prison Guards, and now we can use that technique to observe the universe," Charlotte added.

"I will make the request," Mo Ga Ru said.

He squatted down and placed his hand on the ground.

Not right!

Shen Ye's heart suddenly raced.

If that world-observing Technique required three Prison Guards to perform—

The Nine Aspects definitely doesn't count!

Which means, it's only Mo Ga Ru and himself now.

Just two Prison Guards.

——They certainly can't perform it!

Once it fails, Mo Ga Ru and the Nine Aspects would instantly learn the truth.

Perhaps they would come to their senses?

But it was too late to stop now.

"Seek," Mo Ga Ru whispered.

A dazzling light rose from the earth, fell before everyone, and gradually formed a mirror.

In the mirror, there appeared scenes from the Nightmare World.

Everything in the Nightmare World seemed normal.

"Strange... everything seems normal, why can't we reach the Nightmare World?" Charlotte typed.

"It's not normal," words appeared above Mo Ga Ru's head.

The scenes from the Nightmare World kept changing.

Earth Mother and the Underworld Lord appeared on the screen, joining forces with Xu Xingke, performing some kind of massive Technique.

All around them were Professionals.

"It's World Fusion," said Mo Ga Ru.

"Right, it looks like the Nightmare World is about to merge with the Death Planet," Charlotte also said.

The two watched intently, not missing a single detail on the screen.

——Such World Fusion required great skill, the control of top powerhouses, and it wasn't something commonly seen.

By observing the entire process, one could determine the strength of the enemies on the other side.

Shen Ye stood aside, utterly unconcerned with what was happening on the screen.

Why did the Technique succeed?

...Something wasn't right.

It was completely wrong.

If it required three Prison Guards—

Wait!

The "Five Desires" world's inquiry to him was "Considering the loss of two Prison Guards."

But upon careful consideration, Tai Yan, Tian Luo, Lilias, Mo Ga Ru, there were four people in total.

Three people had clearly died!

Only Mo Ga Ru was left!

...Or, who didn't die?

Tai Yan was devoured by the Nine Aspects, and Tian Luo was personally killed by himself.

A name surfaced in Shen Ye's mind.

Lilias!

Yes!

In the Great Tomb, she had been made into the Banner of the Nest.

He remembered at that time, one Banner of the Nest had sunk into the depths of the Great Tomb, sealed by the king species, ready to be consumed at any time.

But now—

The spirit of the king species was sealed within him, and its body should be with Song Yinchen.

Its spirit and flesh separated, it likely couldn't go and eat the Banner of the Nest in the Great Tomb anymore.

——Lilias was still alive!!!

Shen Ye felt a shock in his heart.

No, he had to check it out.

Complex streams of mental communication came from the earth.

But at this moment, Shen Ye couldn't care less.

"My lord," he approached Mo Ga Ru and spoke softly.

"Speak," a flash of light appeared above Mo Ga Ru's head.

Shen Ye said, "My strength is too insignificant. Next, I want to go to the Great Tomb to elevate my status and train properly."

Mo Ga Ru pondered for a moment.

Looking at the screen, it was filled with top experts from the Nightmare World and the Death Planet.

Baxter, though a competent and capable individual of the Triple Layers of the Law Realm, was truly of little use before these top experts.

It would be best to let him enhance his strength.

The Triple Layers of the Law Realm were indeed too weak, mentioning it would be an embarrassment to himself.

——It's better to have more power to do more things.

"Go ahead, be safe — I might go there later as well," he said.
