Myriad Realms Gatekeeper

Chapter 934: Chapter 448: Gatekeeper!_3

“Shen Ye,”

Su Rong sighed.

“What’s wrong?” Shen Ye asked.

“The multiverse has exhausted a tremendous amount of strength to prematurely activate the ‘gate’ power of the Sixth Era, bestowing it upon all beings,”

“Thanks to your efforts, it has won this life-and-death wager.”

“Now, my merging with your multiverse has restored its strength.”

“Furthermore—”

“Among all gate power users, only you have brought the gate power to the realm of Truth.”

On the ground,

a green plant breaks through the soil, spreading its branches and leaves, stretching a bud before Shen Ye.

The flower blooms like white jade.

A breeze passes by.

The flower sways tirelessly, bringing waves of fragrance.

“At this critical moment of life and death, our multiverse, together with you, has extended an invitation.”

“—inviting you to accept this flower.”

Su Rong’s tone was full of tenderness yet carried a solemnity.

Shen Ye opened his mouth wanting to say more,

But he sensed some kind of resolve from the other party.

It seemed that at this moment, all words were meaningless.

This was the most important communication between him and the multiverse.

It could even be considered a ritual.

Shen Ye remained silent, reaching out and taking the flower.

The little white flower immediately detached from the stem, fell into his hand, and then transformed into a whirl of falling petals, spinning around him incessantly.

A gate emerged on its own.

The Real Estate Gate.

The gate stood before Shen Ye, radiating an aura utterly different from before.

This time,

it was no longer suspended in mid-air.

This gate was rooted to the ground, forming an endless connection with the earth.

Deep within the earth,

a certain strength continuously poured into the gate.

The gate suddenly disappeared.

Before Shen Ye’s eyes, lines of shimmering text materialized:

“All the strength of the multiverse is concentrated in the Death Planet, initiating its transformation into Truth.”

“This strength draws from the Origin Power of each universe within the multiverse.”

“All other layers of the multiverse have been destroyed.”

“The landmass and ocean area of the Death Planet begin to expand explosively.”

“All mighty beings migrate to the Death Planet, and Spiritual Objects reside in the Nightmare World.”

“The current multiverse now contracts with you for the ‘gate’ power.”

“The contract is formed.”

“Once you release the gate power again, you will be privy to the ultimate secret that the multiverse has just developed.”

Without a second thought, Shen Ye reached out into the void and whispered “gate”.

The Real Estate Gate reappeared before him.

But—

Something seemed different.

Shen Ye gazed into the void.

The void offered no hints.

The fate lines on his palm were also in a suppressed state.

This gate, one must push it open personally to learn certain things.

Taking a deep breath, Shen Ye placed his hands on the door, pushing with force.

The gate opened.

And he saw his own house inside—

Little Western Heaven!

—There seemed to be no changes whatsoever.

Wait.

Shen Ye stepped forward, entering through the gate.

He truly appeared in the room of Little Western Heaven.

The cats, dogs, and copper figures all stared wide-eyed at him.

“The flow of time is different…”

Shen Ye murmured to himself, moving straight through the room to the back door, twisting the doorknob firmly.

The door opened.

Outside, another Shen Ye stood before a towering Mining Hoe in hand, ceaselessly mining.

Lines of “Experience Points +0.01” kept popping up above this other Shen Ye’s head.

So—

The secret of the multiverse is this?

To allow oneself and one’s own avatar to appear simultaneously in Little Western Heaven?

…No, that’s not right.

Shen Ye suddenly turned around, went back into the room, crossed the living room, and arrived at the front door.

Outside was the Primordial World.

The Death Planet.

It was the only world that now still exists in the multiverse.

It was undergoing the process of becoming Truth.

An aurora flashed through Shen Ye’s mind.

Could it be——

Shen Ye felt goosebumps all over and couldn’t help but speak:

“Dissolve.”

As the voice fell.

The gate immediately disappeared.

The Little Western Heaven within the gate, the Death Planet outside, both vanished without a trace.

Shen Ye now stood amidst the boundless dark void.

A line of faintly glowing characters appeared:

“Currently located within the Truth Void.”

——I’m in the void myself!

Indeed, I didn’t guess wrong!

“Good idea… But you trust me too much,” Shen Ye said.

“You once saved multiple universes, bringing about changes,” Su Rong’s voice rang out: “The current situation is too critical, and both I and your universe’s Cosmic Will trust you.”

As she spoke, lines of faintly glowing characters emerged in the void:

“One of the twenty-one Ultimate Creations: The multiverse has concentrated all Strength in one world, causing it to undergo Truth-ification.”

“Current Truth World: Death Planet (Nightmare World) has entered into a Truth Contract with your gate power, named:”

“Guardianship of the Gate.”

“Description: Only by opening your Real Estate Gate, can one reach the core world hidden in the multiverse: Death Planet (Nightmare World).”

“Through the Guardianship of the Gate, you can summon the existences of the core world to complete the guardianship tasks together, and represent the multiverse to grant the rightful rewards.”

“——You are the Gatekeeper of Death and Nightmares.”

“Furthermore:”

“As the multiverse develops and strengthens, you, as the Gatekeeper, will also receive corresponding augmentation in strength.”

So that’s how it is.

The multiverse has hidden itself within my gate power!

But there’s a problem here.

“If I die, does that mean nobody will ever be able to find Death Planet again?”

Shen Ye asked.

“It’s not like that——”

“If you die, Death Planet will return to its original spatial location, exposed before other Ultimate Truth Creations, so you absolutely cannot die,” Su Rong said.

Seemingly to explain the matter further.

Su Rong added a few more words:

“Your teacher Xu Xingke, also bears the duty of guardianship.”

“However, the multiverse he belonged to has already been completely destroyed.”

“He guards the remaining powerhouses in the form of Cards.”

Shen Ye was about to speak when his expression suddenly changed.

In the far reaches of the void.

A figure quietly emerged.

White Night Spirit King.

“Ah, isn’t this the broker? What are you doing here?”

It teased with a snicker.

“What are you doing here?” Shen Ye retorted.

“Me? Hehehe, I came here to eliminate an——”

The White Night Spirit King’s voice abruptly cut off.

In front of him, Shen Ye opened a gate and stepped in, disappearing from sight.

The White Night Spirit King’s face darkened, immediately throwing out various treasures and manipulating Technique, trying to pursue.

But——

Unable to track at all.

“So he ran away? That’s strange, too strange; I was just about to wipe out everyone around you, tsk tsk.”

The White Night Spirit King’s face was grim, almost contorting, as he radiated a surge of murderous intent.

Yet, his tone of speech remained very casual.

On the other side.

Shen Ye pushed open the gate, arriving on a bare planet.

Faintly glowing characters appeared:

“You have activated the ‘Gate of Heaven’.”

“Set obstacle as: Every location searchable by White Night Spirit King.”

“Your Gate of Heaven reaches Truth Tenth Rank, suppressing the tracking Technique of White Night Spirit King.”

“——The opponent cannot find you.”

All the characters vanished in a flash.

Only then did Shen Ye slowly let out a breath of relief.

——The opponent is of Truth Eighth Layer, and I only have gate power up to the tenth layer.

If a real fight broke out, I would be no match.

I had to run through the gate.

Fortunately, the opponent was busy playing with me, granting me the chance to escape for the moment.

——I surely cannot die.

Otherwise, everyone else would be exposed and then killed.

Shen Ye looked down.

The lines of Fate on his palm had still not converged.

He needed to continue waiting.

Waiting…

In the meantime, the Truth Mine continued to be excavated, strength increasing every moment.

The multiverse had also temporarily escaped the crisis of destruction.

I can’t just wait forever!

I must gain enough strength quickly to contend with White Night Spirit King!
