Myriad Realms Gatekeeper

Shen Ye opened his mouth but couldn't find anything appropriate to say.

—Sister, gambling can bring great harm, I still have someone on my arm who lost everything.

The maid continued:

"Listen carefully, you're safe this time, but when you come next time, as soon as you start looking for my skeleton, you must collect all my bones within seven hours."

"If you do, there's still hope for everything."

"What happens if it takes more than seven hours?" Shen Ye asked, puzzled.

The maid's words were urgent and fast:

"That unimaginably powerful monster will find you."

"Then you'll have no chance of obtaining our Nightmare World's Spiritual Being Law Phase—I'm weaving it for you!"

"If you fail, the Nightmare World will also have no chance and will only head toward complete annihilation."

She placed a key in front of Shen Ye.

"This is the key to the gate of the Burial Ground in the first layer of Hell, once you go there next time, you should be able to sense another part of my skeleton."

"Move quickly!"

As she spoke, the maid suddenly shuddered, and her expression completely changed.

"Eh? Why am I—ah, sorry, this is the tea snack for you."

She hastily placed the pastries on the tea table.

Shen Ye took the opportunity to store the key in his ring, smiling as he said, "Thank you."

"Hmm, enjoy your time."

The maid bowed and then turned to leave the room.

"May I ask where the Burial Ground is located?" Shen Ye asked.

The maid stopped in her tracks and hurriedly answered, "It's a tomb only qualified Divine Spirits can use. It's just behind the courtyard, follow the road that guides spirits, and you will get there."

"Thank you."

"You're welcome."

The maid left the room.

Shen Ye fell silent.

"You're safe this time, but when you come next"...

These words were said very tactfully, hinting that it was imperative for him to leave this time.

To think that an entity like the Underworld Lord could be pushed to such an extent!

Then leave!

One survives only by heeding advice!

Shen Ye made a swift decision, directly opening a door in the wall and stepping through it.

...

Main World.

The door opened.

Shen Ye returned to the alley.

"Got a tooth of the Nine Aspects... Not sure if this trade was worth it," he muttered to himself.

"Cut the nonsense, you haven't paid anything yet, and here you are weighing gains and losses?" the big skeleton said.

Indeed.

Next, it was time to consider going to the human royal city.

All right.

Getting a new entry is also a good thing.

Next time, I must enhance it!

Shen Ye looked forward to it, striding away.

First, back to the school.

After just a few steps,

Shen Ye sensed an unusual atmosphere.

...It was too quiet.

The pedestrians on the street had all stopped in their tracks, looking up one after another.

What were they looking at?

Full of curiosity, Shen Ye looked up—

The sky.

A giant planet appeared in the depths of the sky!

It hung in the sky like the moon, but was larger than the moon.

Even more strange was—

A human face appeared on the planet!

Shen Ye's heart sank.

It had finally arrived.

Even though he couldn't yet grasp the intentions of this planet, the Master of Weeping Demon Prison was its slave.

Its strength must be unimaginable.

So perhaps not.

Drip, drip, drip—

The phone suddenly rang.

Before he could answer, Kunlun's voice came through immediately:

"All emergency strategies have been implemented, please seek shelter within the school if your strength hasn't reached the Dharma Realm Second Layer."

"Repeat, immediately seek shelter!"

Shen Ye paused for a moment.

Run!!!

He sprinted forward with all his might while pulling out his phone.

As he was about to dial his parents, a call from Qian Rushan came through.

"Hello?"

"Don't worry, your parents have been taken to the group's exclusive underground shelter for protection. Also, you're not strong enough, you must stay inside the school and not go out."

His parents took the phone, warned Shen Ye with a few words, and then handed the phone back to Qian Rushan.

"President Qian, thank you so much!" Shen Ye said gratefully.

"How do I hear the sound of cars on your end, you fool, hurry to Xi Rang for shelter!" Qian Rushan said.

"Got it!"

He hung up the phone.

Shen Ye dashed into the World Museum, and through the fire hydrant, he entered the school.

He suddenly stood still.

In the school's square, a screen was set up, broadcasting live news from the World News Channel.

The students were chatting casually while watching the screen, having brought chairs with them.

In the broadcast, experts and scholars discussed the visible planet in the sky, sharing knowledge about planets.

The host continually reported on the preparations of the military and armed forces around the world.

Everything seemed to be proceeding in an orderly, well-organized manner.

"Shen Ye! I brought a stool for you!"

Guo Yunye called out to him.

Shen Ye walked over and sat down on the stool next to him.

"It's almost eight o'clock, why are you all here watching the live broadcast?"

"Teacher Yang requested it, said it's safest for us to just stay here," Zhao Xiaoyi said.

"Where are the other teachers?"

"They left in a hurry, apparently all off to the front lines to prepare for battle."

Shen Ye gasped for breath and fished out two Guiyuan Supplementing Spirit Pills, slowly chewing and eating them.

At that moment, the screen switched to a famous strong figure.

The students were captivated, looking up at his speech.

Seizing the moment, a small hand suddenly stretched over to Shen Ye, slipping a bottle into his pocket.

Shen Ye looked at it.

Another full bottle of Guiyuan Supplementing Spirit Pills.

He looked towards the owner of the small hand, only to see her face slightly red, already turned sideways, watching the big screen with utter seriousness.

On the screen.

That strong figure seemed to want to introduce the army's state of readiness, and as he spoke, the atmosphere became tense.

The image quickly switched away.

After a commercial break, the screen showed a panel discussion with several experts.

One expert explained:

"This planet is already very close to us, but it has no speed now, so everyone shouldn't worry about a collision."

"Right," another expert picked up, "if this planet has rich mineral deposits, it could actually be a great opportunity for the world's development."

"According to Kunlun's calculations, with our spacecraft, we can travel back and forth between the two planets."

"Then it will just be a matter of whether or not the planet is worth sending the spaceships."

"Yes."

Well then.

The war hasn't even started, and they're already discussing the matter of mineral deposits.

A peaceful atmosphere.

Shen Ye looked towards the planet on the screen.

He saw sudden bursts of light beams flash across the planet, vanishing in an instant.

...Am I seeing things?

Or—

No, I'm not seeing things!

Continuous light beams erupted from the planet again, flickering non-stop, without end.

Yang Yingzhen's voice suddenly rang out:

"Everyone, get down!"

The abnormality arrived at that instant.

Across the school, building after building with carved beams and painted rafters burst into light, soaring and converging together to form a barrier of light.

Then the light beams arrived.

Boom!!!

The earth shook, and the mountains trembled.

The sun and the moon were darkened.

Everyone staggered across the playground like drunken fools, rolling around.

With such force, lying down or not didn't make much difference anymore.

The attack wasn't just a single blast.

Continuous light beams struck the barrier of light, bursting into a painful roar.

"Teacher Yang, the barrier is going to shatter," Xiao Mengyu shouted.

Yang Yingzhen looked up into the sky, only to see that the barrier of light was indeed showing cracks.

"Impossible, this is Xi Rang," she murmured in shock.

In the crowd, Nangong Sirui suddenly raised his hand to the sky and yelled:

"All the sisters, lend me your strength."

A shield bursting with ancient character silently emerged, enveloping his back.

On the shield.

The divine spirits moved, rising into the air, floating midair, and simultaneously formed hand seals.

Beams of Technique light flew from their hands, merging into the barrier of light in the sky.

The cracks in the barrier gradually faded.

The students burst into cheers.

But the next instant—

Another light beam flew down from the sky, directly shattering the barrier.

The situation became dangerous!

Yang Yingzhen suddenly came to her senses, clasped her hands to form a seal, and shouted loudly:

"I request to open the Great Tomb—in this emergency situation, I have the right to open the Great Tomb and let the students take shelter from danger!"

A sigh rose from the ground: "Indeed, it's the only way now!"

Boom, boom, boom—

The ground cracked open, revealing staircases extending downwards.

Yang Yingzhen was overjoyed and waved continuously:

"Everyone, enter the Underground Grand Tomb, take cover from the attack!"

"Quick!"

Some people looked toward Nangong Sirui.

Nangong Sirui shouted anxiously, "Listen to the teacher, this is just a temporary fix, it won't last long!"

Beads of sweat covered his forehead, and he looked somewhat weary.

It seemed that activating so many divine spirits to repair the barrier had drained much of his strength.

Every student admitted into Xi Rang was an elite of the world.

The crowd was calm, orderly, and quick to descend the stairs.

On the ground.

Only Yang Yingzhen, Nangong Sirui, Shen Ye, and Xiao Mengyu were left.

"Why aren't you leaving?" Teacher Yang asked in surprise.

"He is in danger at any moment," Shen Ye said cryptically.

—If the barrier broke, he could open a door to block the attack, redirecting it to Hell.

A simpler method—

Directly pull him into Nightmare World.

However, that would expose his abilities, so he had to decide based on the situation.

That's why he didn't leave.

"Go! Everyone go!"

Teacher Yang waved her hand:

"The defenses in the Great Tomb are stronger, you'll all be safe!"

Nangong Sirui then retracted the shield and, together with Shen Ye and Xiao Mengyu, walked into the underground passage.

Teacher Yang was the last one in.

She entered the tunnel and formed a new Technique again.

Boom, boom, boom—

The passage closed once more.
