Myriad Realms Gatekeeper-Chapter 951 - 454 Mountain God!

The connecting steps between the eighth and ninth layers.

Shen Ye and Charlotte sat on the steps.

——This place, situated between two floors, untouched by the trials of either, serves as an excellent temporary rest area.

Shen Ye handed a can of drink to Charlotte and took the opportunity to glance at Little Western Heaven.

The work of mining by the bronze figures and their substitutes continued.

The flow of time remained stable, sustaining the ratio of "three months per day," thus the efficiency of leveling up was quite high.

He had now reached the Thirteenth Order of the Dharma Realm.

As for his profession——

Once his attributes grew strong enough, the power of the Three Techniques would also increase.

The Dharma Aspect would naturally grow.

The Immortal Country profession would be uplifted accordingly.

There were no issues with any of these.

It’s just that——

All of these required time.

Yes.

All he needed was time.

Shen Ye thought to himself.

Charlotte took a sip of her drink, the reflection of her deep thoughts apparent in her eyes. She quickly grasped the situation.

"When I left Death Planet, I took Chaos Heaven with me. Do you remember why?"

Charlotte asked.

"I remember," Shen Ye replied casually, "You thought I was too weak at the time, worried that others would see through me having one of the Three Techniques, attracting disaster."

"Do you resent me for it?" Charlotte asked.

"How could I," Shen Ye laughed, "you were right, if I had Chaos Heaven back then, it probably would have been taken from me long ago."

Charlotte smiled sweetly, formed a Spell Seal with one hand, and touched Shen Ye’s forehead as she said:

"Chaos Heaven agreed to leave with me as well, based on that consideration."

"But times have changed since then——"

"You have been proving yourself all along, and have even become a Gatekeeper."

"Both the Technique Spirit of Chaos Heaven and I feel it would be foolish not to return the strength to you at this moment."

"Return it to me?" Shen Ye was somewhat puzzled.

"Isn’t it obvious? The rebirth of Chaos Heaven into this world is because you found it——you are its true master."

"Besides, I have been practicing this Technique during this period, gaining some insights and skills."

"——I am giving it all back to you, Baxter!"

As Charlotte spoke, the Spell Seal in her hand burst out with an extremely intense buzzing sound.

In an instant.

The surging air currents scattered in all directions.

Shen Ye’s hair was blown up, revealing the gradually emerging starlight spot on his smooth forehead.

A line of tiny light characters quietly surfaced:

"Your Chaos Heaven has now returned."

There was a pause.

Countless memories began to surface in Shen Ye’s heart.

Starting from awakening, teetering on the brink of life and death, coping with numerous difficulties and dangers, and finally, getting ahead of all his enemies to be the first to discover Chaos Heaven.

He had obtained Chaos Heaven.

Indeed.

The true victor of Chaos Heaven from the start was himself!

But why was Charlotte able to take it away?

Within layer upon layer of memory images, one scene quietly emerged.

It was the moment before he parted ways with Charlotte.

A girl with twin ponytails appeared in front of Charlotte.

"Hello, Charlotte. I am the Technique Spirit of Chaos Heaven. You must take me away immediately, or the fluctuations of my emergence will attract countless coveters," the girl said.

"What’s that to me?" Charlotte replied.

"If you don’t take me away," the twin ponytailed girl said emotionlessly, "your man will die because of it, and even his soul will be captured, continuously having his memories extracted."

"Unless you replace him, fleeing with me, ensuring his safety."

"But then, all the danger will be on you."

"Are you willing to do that?"

Charlotte gave no response.

But the next second.

She appeared in Hell, bidding farewell to Shen Ye.

And then she took Chaos Heaven away.

Subsequent countless memory images continued to flash, each one showing her struggling to survive amid various encirclements and blockades.

Shen Ye opened his eyes, looking at Charlotte.

Meeting his gaze, Charlotte spoke with a gentle smile:

"No need to feel guilty. Isn’t it normal for us to do things for each other?"

"Besides, no one has caught me yet, and my strength has been continually growing."

She touched Shen Ye’s face with her hand.

But an odd fluctuation emanated from Shen Ye.

This was the phenomenon of the Three Techniques uniting as one.

As if possessing a consciousness of their own, once they released that integrating power fluctuation, they immediately concealed it on their own initiative.

"The transmission of this Cultivation Technique and Strength will tire me. I need to rest a bit; information about that world is already within your memories,"

Charlotte said, somewhat wearied.

"Go rest," Shen Ye said warmly.

"Mhm, you better not die, or I’ll never let you off the hook."

"Don’t worry."

Charlotte smiled and then her figure suddenly vanished.

She had returned to Death Planet.

On the steps.

Shen Ye was left alone.

He quietly sensed the power of the Three Techniques.

Especially Chaos Heaven.

At this moment.

It finally returned to its rightful owner!

The power of the Technique kept strengthening, causing transformations in all aspects of Shen Ye.

Shen Ye subconsciously looked towards his Dharma Aspect.

He saw the Dharma Aspect constantly transforming.

An unprecedented opportunity was dawning on him——

"Your Dharma Aspect is comprised of the Three Techniques."

"At this very moment, one of the Techniques named ’Chaos Heaven’ has wholly returned to its rightful place."

"Although you cannot yet unleash its full power, your Dharma Aspect has already grown stronger."

"Your current Dharma Aspect advancement is:"

"Yin Yang Liangyi Salvation Mountain."

"Description: You can simultaneously experience two completely different fates, navigate through all dangers, and switch to another fate line, moving back and forth between the dual lines—establishing your position, and saving from hardship and disaster."

"Furthermore."

"Now you can choose one object from your Dharma Aspect and transform it into a Truth Creation."

"Or you can ascend to a new Immortal Country profession."

"Please choose!"

Shen Ye subconsciously wanted to pick "transform into a Truth Creation."

Because once the Four Kings are transformed into Truth Creations, they could go to the Little Western Heaven to mine.

Six people mining together.

——The upgrade speed would be much faster!

However, as if by instinct, or perhaps because he had experienced so many things, when it came to selecting battle strategies and judging the trends of events, Shen Ye had some unique insights.

At this moment.

Ultimate Creations and big shots of Truth 17th Rank were engaged in a life-and-death struggle for power.

The White Night Spirit King was also rapidly catching up, aiming to be the first to climb to the 21st floor, to seize the Truth Contract, and become the master of this Ultimate Creation.

The situation was precarious!

He was in a temporarily stable state because he was careful enough.

But being cautious alone was insufficient.

One must seize the initiative amidst the greater trend!

——The transformation of the Four Kings into Truth Creations could wait.

The top priority was to find the woman related to the End Master of all Eras.

Yet he himself was not qualified.

Because he simply could not enter the world she was in.

"I choose to ascend to a new Immortal Country profession."

Shen Ye made his decision.

A curious fluctuation transmitted from the Dharma Aspect, enveloping his entire body.

At this moment.

His profession finally began to change.

In the void, tiny glimmers of light appeared before his eyes:

"This enhancement of Dharma Aspect Power has made the Immortal Country more robust and concrete, its power surpassing any Three Techniques civilization that has ever appeared in history."

"——Because this is a Dharma Aspect born from the union of the Three Techniques, real and not false."

"Congratulations."

"You have obtained a brand new profession:"

"Mountain God."

"A supportive profession."

"With three Professional Skills, detailed as follows;"

"1. Transmutation at Will: You inherited the mutated power from Taiyi Prolonging Life Salvation Dream Divine Palace, which you can cast upon others, allowing them to return to life at the moment just after you blessed them upon death;"

"2. Altar City Blessing: When casting Techniques, the Attribute requirements for your Physique are reduced by thirty percent, and the power of the Techniques is increased by thirty percent."

"3. Obsession Transit: Sense all beings’ Obsessions and transport yourself directly in front of the object of their attachment."

——This profession was somewhat beyond Shen Ye’s expectations.

It truly felt a bit like that of an "immortal."

But could it take him to the world where that woman resided?

"Object of attachment"...

Isn’t that the pass token presented by the End Master of all Eras!

Shen Ye took off the badge from his chest, unfolded it in his hand, and silently activated his Professional Skill "Obsession Transit."

In a flash.

He sensed a world.

Endless battles spread throughout the entire world.

Various monsters were fierce and relentless, and there were also uncontrollable Divine Weapons, countless Technique Spirits with awakened self-awareness, tormenting living beings.

——What a terrifying place this was!

Shen Ye abruptly stopped the sensation and took a few breaths before he regained his composure.

No.

That place was too dangerous.

If he entered, he would face countless battles, without even a moment to rest.

And his current strength was only at the Law Realm Thirteen Layers.

He could go now.

——But what then, once there?

Shen Ye fell into contemplation.

Suddenly.

There was a disturbance from below the staircase.

——Several Professionals had broken through the trials of the eighth layer and were heading towards the ninth.

"Is it you?"

Upon seeing Shen Ye, they all unanimously voiced out.

A glimmer of inspiration flashed through Shen Ye’s mind.

"My friends, I’ve been right here waiting for you," he said.

"Waiting for us? Aren’t you a neutral party? Even the Ultimate Creation said so," someone probed.

"Correct, I will not participate in any trials, remaining completely neutral, but——"

"I can do a bit of trade with everyone!"

Shen Ye paused before continuing:

"The higher you go, the more dangerous it gets. Adventurers, would you like to ’save your progress’ with me?"

"Save progress?" everyone said in unison.

"Yes, it’s like this——"

Shen Ye casually selected a Professional and cast the Mountain God Professional Skill "Transmutation at Will."

"Relax, the effect of this Technique is that when you die, you’ll be resurrected again from this moment, right in front of me."

He explained.

The Professional, who was also a Gatekeeper, sensed it and showed a look of joy, asking:

"Indeed it is so, but what kind of price must be paid for such a save and revival?"

Shen Ye explained patiently:

"Quite simple — I need some treasured items for self-protection — or those self-activating Techniques, one-time traps, and so on."

"All defensive and offensive treasures that do not require me to exert strength can be exchanged with me for the privilege of being revived from a save point."

"Friends, time is money. If you are willing to trade with me, then please bring out your treasures."

The crowd exchanged glances.

"Ridiculous, I do not need any of these," one Professional remarked and then headed upstairs.

Shen Ye maintained his smile as if unfazed.

After all——

A majority of the strong ones who had reached this layer were intelligent and cautious.

"I want to trade with you."

That very Gatekeeper spoke decidedly: "Speaking of one-time use items, I do happen to have some interesting things."

Shen Ye smiled and said:

"Then you may keep the ’save point’ Technique on you — our trade is a pleasure."
