Myriad Realms Gatekeeper-Chapter 693 - 381: Survival!
A black wooden plank rested upon the table.
The elder from the Taoist Palace gestured, and the board instantly flew to hover before him.
"It’s actually the True Void White Moon Slash Secret Tome!"
The elder exclaimed with emotion.
Tu Fusheng burst into laughter, stroking his beard, "Indeed, this is part of my collection, unfit for public display. Now, I’m donating it to the Taoist Palace, hoping that you will take good care of my junior."
"Most certainly," the elder from the Taoist Palace replied, "Elder Tu, you have long been a famous master..."
A draft blew through the hall.
Outside the hall, rows of lush green spiritual plants swayed back and forth, emitting a faint spiritual mist that the wind swept into the great hall, creating a light haze at the foot of the space.
—As if in a realm of immortals.
Shen Ye listened silently to the conversation between the two, his gaze sweeping the surroundings, swiftly ascertaining the current moment.
He had returned to the day he joined the Supreme Tao Palace.
And Charlotte—
At this moment, she was still being hunted.
This was the so-called "optimal dream node," where Charlotte, using a Heavenly Technique of several times the power, sent herself to this moment; by turning the dream into reality, she could Deceive the Heavens to Cross the Sea.
"Nangong Wantu."
A shout brought Shen Ye back to his senses.
He noticed that all the cultivators in the hall were looking at him.
Indeed.
Now was the moment for him to make a choice.
"Elder."
Shen Ye quickly clasped his hands in salute.
"My Supreme Tao Palace has five Dharma Aspects, eighteen Daoist weapons and further, thirty-six Layered Art Techniques, categorically divided into Heaven, Earth, and Mystic three divisions, each with their leaders. Which division do you wish to cultivate within?" the Supreme Elder asked.
"What are the differences between these three divisions?" asked Shen Ye.
In reality, with this second chance, he already knew the differences between the Heaven, Earth, and Mystic divisions.
However—
Should he return to the Mystic division once more, or should he switch to one of the other two?
As he pondered, he suddenly saw small floating characters appear in the void:
"Having completed a fatal escape, finding life anew, you have activated your Entry:"
"The Boy Who Survived Great Adversities."
"With the Power of this Entry, all your Attribute Points rise by 2."
His attributes had increased.
Though it was only by 2 points, it was progress nonetheless.
Shen Ye silently felt the changes within his body, when more glimmering small characters appeared in the void:
"This is a historially unparalleled battle against a Heart Demon."
"You and your companion employed the Heaven Connecting Technique and the Heavenly Technique, executing a perfect ruse, deceiving all your enemies."
"However, the matter is far from over."
"In three minutes, the news of Yun Ni’s (Lilias’s) death will cross multiple universes and reach the Sect."
"A sweeping purge throughout the entire Sect is about to begin."
"You must walk over countless bodies, survive till the very end, and mark the conclusion of the entire Heart Demon battle with your survival."
"If you accomplish this, you will receive a new Mythological Entry recognized by the Dharma Realm."
"Begin!"
In three minutes?
Shen Ye listened to the Supreme Elder’s presentation while contemplating countermeasures.
If it really came to it—
It wouldn’t hurt to avoid this den of dragons and tigers!
Should I leave?
He glanced at Tu Fusheng, then at the enthusiastic Supreme Elder, thought carefully for a few moments, and then abandoned the idea.
Charlotte had narrowly escaped the Taoist Palace, risking her life, and he himself had nearly capsized in the gutter.
Now, having taken great pains to circle back—
Was he to just let it go?
Moreover, the Supreme Tao Palace had the Supreme Forgetting Love Feathering Ascension Scripture and Sacred Relics.
Untold years ago, those relics were the Sacred Relics of Penglai Immortal Mountain!
He had to gain the power of the Heaven Connecting Technique through the relics, and also search for the jade slip left in the Alchemy Furnace by the Penglai Mountain Master.
Leaving would be safe, but he would neither be able to take his revenge nor accomplish his goals.
He had to stay.
To fight.
By then, the Supreme Elder had detailed each division as if reciting treasures from memory. When he mentioned the Mystic Sect Leader Yun Ni, it was different from before.
"The Mystic Sect was initially overseen by the Sect Leader’s only Direct Disciple, which is to say our Sect’s eldest disciple, Yun Ni."
"Regrettably, she went missing while out on an excursion with her accompanying child, and even her Soul Lamp has been extinguished."
"Therefore, the position of Mystic Sect Leader is currently vacant."
The accompanying child.
It must be Pei Pei.
At this moment.
The hesitation within Shen Ye suddenly vanished.
"Reporting to the elder, I wish to join the Mystic division," Shen Ye said.

"The Mystic division? What is your ’name’? And what are your Dharma Aspects?" the Supreme Elder asked.
Shen Ye once again displayed the "Disaster" and "Divas" Entries.
Just like before, he was granted the qualifications to join the Mystic division.
Everything was as it was.
He bade farewell to Tu Fusheng.
After the elder recited a string of encouraging platitudes, he arranged for a Guide Taoist to take him down.
The Guide Taoist was still Dao Zhengyi.
This time, Shen Ye didn’t spend any Spirit Stones; instead, he followed silently behind, collecting the monthly allowance of Spirit Stones, Elixirs, and Daoist Manuals for a True Disciple, before flying off to the Mystic Gate Peak.
There was still a contest at the peak.
Jiang Dazhuang, the second senior brother of the Mystic Gate Peak, still sported a face full of black beard.
Dao Zhengyi briefly introduced Shen Ye, then flew back to report his mission complete.
Shen Ye had no choice but to engage in awkward chat with Jiang Dazhuang.
They exchanged a few indifferent words.
"Are you participating in today’s ranking contest? It’s a good opportunity to secure cultivation resources."
Jiang Dazhuang asked with seeming concern.
"Thank you for your kind intentions, senior brother, but I’m afraid my strength is too modest; I’ll pass," Shen Ye replied.
Jiang Dazhuang sized him up for a moment without saying anything.
The battle on the stage quickly ended.
"Sun Lian advances one rank, Wu Fang falls back one—anyone else wishing to challenge?"
Jiang Dazhuang announced.
The next second.
An elder descended from the sky, landing directly on the stage to announce:
"The Soul Lamp of the Mystic Sect Leader Yun Ni has been extinguished."
"All her resources and treasures will be redistributed to the disciples of the Mystic division."
