Gatekeeper of all realms

Chapter 372 Shen Ye, Sect Leader, and Inner Demon!
The array plate, which was glowing with spiritual light, was placed on the table.

The formation of the entire cave continued to operate, resisting all prying forces from outside and solidifying five defensive techniques.

Shen Ye rubbed his hands, stood aside, and said with a smile:
"Pepe asked me to see this magic circle, so I opened it. To be honest, I don't know how to do anything."

"Was it Pepe who opened it?" asked the headmaster.

"Correct."

"Pepe is very good to you."

"Of course. I am a generous person and I will never mistreat the people around me."

The head of the sect nodded, looked around the entire cave, and asked:
"I heard that you had some unpleasantness with your fellow brothers from Xuanmen."

"Actually, we are all brothers and sisters. It won't be a problem if we fight a little. When I become stronger in the future, I will hang out with them more often." Shen Ye said.

The dissatisfaction in these words was almost overflowing.

How come the Sect Master and the two elders didn’t understand?

——However, the sect encourages this kind of normal competition.

There is no young disciple who doesn't dare to fight for his reputation.

Then there is no need to practice anymore.

The head of the sect smiled and said, "The Supreme Forgetfulness Feathering Ascension Sutra is very difficult. If you want to improve your strength quickly, learning this may not be the solution."

"Really? I feel like the practice is going well." Shen Ye said.

Is practicing okay?

The two elders glanced sideways.

This technique is extremely difficult. There are only a handful of people in the entire sect who practice it, and almost all of them have given up.

He actually said that practicing was okay?

The head of the sect remained calm and said calmly:
"Please try out the technique. I want to see how far you have come."

"Yes!"

Shen Ye made a Taoist gesture.

Strands of dark blue light emanated from his body, like thin vertical lines, radiating out into the air.

"It's the Supreme Method of Forgetting Emotions, Cleansing the Marrow and Refining the Soul!" a Supreme Elder said in a low voice.

"That's right. The color of the spiritual power is gradually deepening. It is the effect of cleansing. He is already on the road, Master!" said another supreme elder.

The head of the sect smiled, looked Shen Ye up and down, and said:

"Is the singer really that powerful?"

"No, Master, I am also extremely outstanding among singers. I am extremely talented." Shen Ye said with his chest puffed out.

I have never seen such a shameless disciple!
The headmaster's face twitched and he changed the subject:
“Nangong Wantu, do you believe in fate?”

--destiny!
These words are extremely profound and hit the core of the whole matter.

Shen Ye was refreshed and said:
"Master, please ask the others to leave. I have something to report to you."

The headmaster and two elders stared at him together, hoping to find some flaws or something, but they didn't expect that he would take the initiative to say that he had something to report!
What does he know?
"Well, you guys go wait outside the cave." said the headmaster.

"Yes!"

The two supreme elders turned and left.

The door of the cave was closed.

The array disk is still rotating.

The head of the sect also waved his hand and set up several restrictions.

Now, no one can spy on what is happening here.

"Tell me, what's the matter with you?"

The headmaster asked.

Shen Ye walked quickly to the door of the cave, leaned against it, and listened carefully.

"Master, the two elders are outside the door," he said.

"...It doesn't matter. There is a magic circle here and they can't hear what we say." The headmaster said speechlessly.

Shen Ye's heart suddenly moved.

Tu Fusheng had already prepared the corresponding things and placed them in his own Dharma image.

Here we go!
Shen Ye coughed lightly, walked up to the headmaster, flipped his hand, and took out a gorgeous and exquisite box.

"It's just a small gift, please accept it, Master."

He held the box in both hands and spoke respectfully.

The headmaster was stunned.

I thought what was going on—

It turns out this guy wants to bribe!
no--

That Tu Fusheng gave me a mountain of spiritual stones as a gift, and you followed suit and bribed me in front of me.

It is true that what kind of elders you have, what kind of descendants you will have.

But what do you think of my sect?

The head of the sect suddenly changed color and shouted:
"My Supreme Taoist Palace is a famous and upright sect. You are like this—"

Shen Ye quickly rushed to say: "Master! Inside here is a jade marrow of immortal spirits that has existed for thousands of years! My uncle Tu dug more than 200 high-level planets to find this little bit, which is worth billions!"

Snapped!
The box opens.

Inside are several round milky white jade stones.

As soon as they were exposed to the air, they immediately emitted colorful light, and at the same time, rich, fog-like spiritual energy filled the entire cave.

Take a breath and all 84,000 pores in your body will feel comfortable and peaceful, as if you are floating in the air!
This is a priceless treasure for spiritual practice!

Having a few such ten-thousand-year-old fairy jade marrows is enough to support the cultivation of all the people in a medium-sized sect for hundreds of years.

Absolute hard currency!

Even a great master like Tu Fusheng had to spend a lot of effort to get it.

In order to help Shen Ye pass the test, I have no choice but to contribute.

Snapped!
The box was closed again.

"This is just a small gift from your disciple. Please accept it, Master!"

Shen Ye held up the box, his voice firm.

He remained silent for a few breaths.

The voice of the headmaster sounded:
"It's incredible, it's really incredible."

"You are such a sincere child for the sect. Your heart is sincere and your intentions are commendable. Well, I will accept it."

The box disappeared with a "swish".

The head of the sect flipped his hand, placed a jade slip on the table, and said in a gentle voice:

"Although you are talented and have the ability to sing, the Supreme Forgetfulness and Ascension Sutra is divided into three paths. I have some experience here. Please think carefully and don't take the wrong path and waste your time and energy."

"Thank you, Master!" Shen Ye bowed gratefully.

"Well, practice well and don't let the sect down."

"Yes!"

The leader left gracefully.

Bang.

The door of the cave was closed.

Outside.

The head of the sect lowered his head and stood there silently, seemingly thinking about something.

wrong.

I'm here to inspect.

How did it suddenly become bribery?
The two great elders became nervous when they saw that the headmaster looked unhappy.

"What? Is there something wrong with this kid?"

one person asked.

"It shouldn't be him." said the headmaster.

"Why do you think so?" asked another person.

"...You can tell by looking at the family tradition," the head of the sect said with a strange expression, "I came here to inspect, and this kid actually bribed me."

"You really underestimate my Tai Shang Taoist Palace." An elder sneered.

"You are an ungrateful fellow." Another elder said murderously.

"They are a few jade marrows that are ten thousand years old." The headmaster explained.

"It's so sincere! It's so sincere!" The two elders praised sincerely.

"How about this, I will accept him as my personal disciple later and he will be by my side every day. If there is no problem then let it go. If there is a problem then I will just take him down directly." said the headmaster.

"The leader is wise."

The two supreme elders said in unison.

Suddenly, a figure was seen rushing in the sky and landed in front of the three people.

But it was a female Taoist child.

When the Taoist girl saw the headmaster and the great elder, she was startled and hurriedly saluted and said:
"Greetings to the Sect Master! Greetings to the Grand Elder!"

"It's Pepe. Let me ask you, was it you who opened the formation of the cave?" asked a supreme elder.

"I drove it." Pepe turned pale with fear and said in a trembling voice.

The three of them looked at each other.

“Tell Nangong Wantu to hand over the formation plate to the sect tomorrow.” said the supreme elder.

"Tell him that this magic circle is harmful to the soul and must not be built again in the future. Do you understand?" said another supreme elder.

"Yes!" Pepe replied hurriedly.

A few minutes later.

Inside the cave.

All the light on the array disk converged.

The magic circle stopped.

Shen Ye glanced around and saw that the faint, illusory flames once again covered the entire space.

Wailing souls come and go like the walking dead.

——Of course, all this can be seen clearly because of the demon-subduing pestle on his body.

Pepe was totally unaware.

"I bought a lot of things, would you like to take a look?" Pepe asked.

"No need." Shen Ye was still thinking about how to deal with the situation.

"Master," Pepe said in a voice transmission, "I was scared to death just now."

"Ah."

"Master, let's run away. If we don't run away, we will die here sooner or later."

"There's nothing we can do for now. Don't worry, we'll be fine." Shen Ye comforted.

——The little girl was already feeling guilty, and when she was suddenly spotted by the sect leader and two great elders, she was frightened out of her wits.

That's understandable.

"Master, it seems that it's not enough for you to just become a man. They are still wary of you - you have to change your personality again - just like last time!" Pepe said suddenly.

"Uh-huh?"

Shen Ye looked at Pepe.

Last time?

That’s right…Pepe knows something.

It's about Yun Ni.

Shen Ye smiled and whispered:
"Pepe, I haven't looked at things from other people's perspectives for a long time. Tell me about the past so I can see if I have done anything wrong."

"It's nothing, actually," Pepe said in a voice transmission, "You were originally an extremely smart person, devoted to studying Taoist scriptures, and didn't like to interact with others. Later, you said that the master's Dharma image would eat people, and you had to change your temper. Then you became more and more concerned about your image, and walked around in the multiverse, and your reputation gradually spread far and wide."

"Then they sent the news that you had gone into a trance and died."

Shen Ye listened carefully, thought for a while, and asked:
"I became more and more image-conscious at that time. Do you think there was anything wrong with what I did?"

"That's not a problem. We just happened to attract a lot of people's attention, so we were able to survive with you, but——"

Seeing how serious he was, Pepe spoke out his true feelings:

"Your transformation was too abrupt. We were all uncomfortable at first. If you want to do anything else, please be mindful of this."

"Why am I so stiff?" Shen Ye asked.

Seeing that he looked normal and didn't seem to be blaming her, Pepe became a little bolder and said in a voice transmission:
"That day I was responsible for assisting you in refining the weapon. After you finished forging the Demon Subduing Pestle, you went out that night. When you came back the next day, you immediately started dressing up and became radiant. Isn't this change too fast?"

Shen Ye said: "This is indeed a bit strange. I will pay attention to it next time."

"Well, actually you have done a very good job, Master. What should we do next?" Pepe asked.

"You should go and rest first. It's too late. We'll talk about it tomorrow." Shen Ye transmitted the message.

Pepe seemed to have made some kind of decision. He gritted his teeth and continued to transmit his voice:

"The Sect Master has activated the Demon Slaying Formation, which is bound to consume a lot of strength. If he doesn't eat people, he will have problems."

"Master, you need to find a solution quickly."

"Don't worry, I have my own way. You can rest assured." Shen Ye comforted him in a gentle voice.

Pepe walked across the yard and went to the bedroom on the other side of the cave to rest.

Only Shen Ye was left sitting there.

He picked up the master's jade slip, swept his spiritual power into it, and immediately knew the contents.

Nothing more.

It is not as detailed as the Tarot card "Battle Guidance Master".

But one thing is worth noting.

The jade slip said that if one truly practices this sutra, one must overcome tribulations every time one advances to a higher level.

Overcoming the tribulation - In today's fast-paced era, in order to improve the efficiency of practice, many exercises have been modified and evolved and no longer require overcoming the tribulation.

But this Taoist scripture still requires overcoming tribulations.

——And it is a calamity of the soul!
No wonder so few people practice this technique.

Even if there are people with great talent, they will turn around and run away when they see that they have to go through such a difficult calamity.

There are so many good techniques in the world, why bother practicing this unlucky thing?
In fact.

If this technique wasn't related to the ruins.

If it wasn't for the secrets of Yun Ni, the headmaster, and the Dao Palace -

I threw away this sutra a long time ago!
"Practice... Practice for a bit, and then stop practicing after this is over."

Shen Ye made a secret decision.

He sat cross-legged on the cushion and began to practice his skills.

After practicing for a while, he seemed to remember something. He touched the ring, took out a jade marrow that was ten thousand years old, stuffed it directly into his mouth, and pressed it under his tongue.

——Tu Fusheng is a good person.

In order to thank him for his kindness, it is only natural for me to leave one for myself to help with my practice.

This time there is nothing left out.

Shen Ye just sat there and gradually entered a state of cultivation.

Perhaps it was because he had obtained the transformation rules of the Supreme Forgetful Feathered Ascension Sutra in the ruins, or perhaps it was because he had obtained the detailed explanation with pictures and texts from the "Battle Guidance Master" card, as well as the power continuously released by the Ten Thousand Years Fairy Jade Marrow -

Shen Yexiu's practice went very smoothly.

Two hours later.

He vaguely touched that level.

——The spiritual power in the body has been almost completely refined, only the last trace is left.

If this trace is also refined, the nature of the spiritual power will undergo earth-shaking changes.

Because everyone's karma is different, and their personalities and experiences are completely different, when the inner demons invade, all sorts of strange things will happen.

Inner demon!

This word makes every practitioner shudder.

Therefore, when practicing this Taoist scripture, one must focus the mind at such critical moments and not be distracted or manipulated by external appearances, which might lead to insanity.

This is what is called "the highest state of forgetting emotions".

Only in this way can we successfully get through and climb to higher levels.

Therefore, the name of this Taoist scripture is called "The Great Scripture of Forgetting Emotions and Ascending to Heaven".

Shen Ye gradually adjusted his body's condition to its peak, and then used the Taoist techniques to refine the last bit of spiritual power.

call--

A faint blue light emanated from his entire body, like a flame swaying in the wind.

Become!

The spiritual power was washed and turned into spiritual fire.

According to Taoist scriptures, this is called "Supreme Spiritual Fire."

The spells and even close-range attack skills released by this spiritual fire will be more powerful than attacks powered by ordinary spiritual power.

Shen Ye suddenly had an idea and remembered something.

"Oh, right, I practiced the Hun Tian Sect's technique and used Guang Han's power to condense the 'Sealing Flame'."

He looked into the void, and a faint light appeared in the form of small words:

"Sealing Flame."

"Effect 1: Once a time spell is activated, you can attach yourself to it, gain the 'walking together' effect, and arrive at the time node specified by the spell."

"Effect 2: Ice and fire are sealed in 'time' and released at the same time, with tremendous power turning the enemy into ashes."

"Side effect: You will be able to see any changes in time."

——This flame is rarely used.

Now is the perfect time to blend!

As for the effect?

whatever!
Anyway, I didn't intend to keep practicing this sutra.

Yun Ni’s appearance of being possessed by inner demons is a lesson!

Shen Ye put aside his concerns and decided to give it a try.

Small words appeared in the dim light:

"You activated the dark gold item 'Vampire Baby', which allowed the 'Supreme Spiritual Fire' and the 'Sealed Flame' to merge into one."

"This fusion has achieved a super evolution effect."

"Congratulations."

"You have obtained a new spiritual flame:"

"Flame Spirit Divine Light."

"primary."

"Description: The spiritual power in your Dantian is upgraded to Flame Spirit Divine Light. The power of all your attacks is tripled. The divine light can be condensed into Flame Spirit Divine Light Armor and attached to your body for defense."

Shen Ye was stunned.

He stretched out his hand, silently practicing the Taoist formula, and suddenly a layer of golden flame emerged from his arm.

——Flame Spirit Divine Light!
This is a power that is several levels higher than spiritual power!

As soon as he thought about it, a layer of golden flame suddenly surged out of his body and turned into armor.

Become!

Once the nature of the spiritual light changes, it means that you have officially learned the Tai Shang Wang Qing Mei Hua Fei Sheng Sutra!

If you continue to practice in the future, you can improve your Dharma appearance and strength more quickly.

Sudden.

A strong sense of crisis arose spontaneously.

Shen Ye stood up and looked around vigilantly.

Normally, such a big breakthrough would be disrupted by inner demons.

But I don’t know what my inner demon is.

"Are you looking for me?"

A voice rang in my ears.

Shen Ye suddenly turned around and saw a young man who looked exactly like him standing behind him.

Deep night.

——Another Shen Ye, also the original Shen Ye!
It turned out that he came from Blue Star and occupied his body, and he still remembered this incident in his heart.

That’s why such a demon in the heart was born.

"Hello, what's the matter?"

Shen Ye asked.

"You won't kill me?" asked the inner demon Shen Ye.

"I don't have any experience with inner demons. Besides, you and I have no grudges against each other. Why don't we talk?" Shen Ye said.

"It's not that stupid. In fact, I am you, just the part of you that has been hidden deep in your heart. Since you didn't take action right away, you have a chance." said the inner demon.

"What opportunity?" Shen Ye asked.

"You have one chance to make it up to me. After all, you have got everything from me." said the inner demon.

"Can the inner demon also ask for money, spiritual stones and treasures?" Shen Ye asked.

"No, the inner demon only wants life - you have to arrange my life for me. If I am satisfied, I don't want your life anymore."

"If I arrange it, you can get that kind of fate?" Shen Ye asked.

"Yes, I am you and your heart. Whatever your heart thinks, the Dharma Realm will become." said the inner demon.

After it finished speaking, it sat down on the cushion in front of Shen Ye.

——It looked like it was not afraid at all that Shen Ye would kill it.

In fact, Shen Ye couldn't kill it.

now.

I am still on the test of the road to heaven.

Before reaching the eighth level of the Dharma Realm, you cannot fight with anyone!

Fighting with yourself is also a fight!
In addition, Shen Ye always felt that the inner demon could not be killed.

——Yun Ni didn’t kill the inner demon.

So how do we get through this level?
Shen Ye thought about it, sat down opposite the inner demon, and sighed:
"Why is it like saving the souls of the dead?"

"Stop talking nonsense. I'm not a ghost. I'm another you. You need to think about how to convince yourself." said the inner demon.

He exuded bursts of black light, and his voice became strange and confusing:
"You only have one chance. If you don't meet my requirements, I will possess you."

Possessed by the inner demon!

"No, I'll arrange it for you right away." Shen Ye jumped up and said.

"How to arrange it?" asked the inner demon.

Shen Ye touched his ring and took out dozens of blank jade slips issued by the sect and placed them neatly on the table.

He grabbed a jade slip and recorded a piece of information on it, then grabbed another jade slip and recorded another piece of information on it.

His movements were extremely fast and efficient, and in a short while, all thirty jade slips were processed.

"Please go ahead, everything is arranged inside, just pick one!"

Shen Ye said.

The inner demon was half-believing and half-doubting. He walked to the table and picked up a jade slip.

A piece of information suddenly appeared in the mind of the inner demon:
"I am Shen Ye."

"I was killed by a weird statue and traveled to another world."

"There are no 'disasters' or 'abnormalities' here, only a stable big city life."

"Yes, I turned into a cat."

"Every day I can sleep well, eat to my heart's content, and pursue Miss Cat."

"The only job is—"

"Catch that damn rat!"

The inner demon put down the jade slip and slowly turned back to look at Shen Ye:
"Why did you turn into a cat? Is this your compensation to me?"

"Nowadays, many people like cats. It's a very fashionable thing. If you don't like it, look for something else." Shen Ye said.

The inner demon picked up another jade slip.

A new piece of information came to its mind:

"I am Shen Ye."

"I was killed by a weird statue and traveled to another world."

"There is no 'disaster' or 'abnormality' here, only a castle occupied by a dragon and a princess sleeping in the castle."

"As long as I kill the dragon and wake the princess up with a kiss, I can live a happy life."

The inner demon groaned: "Kill the evil dragon..."

"I can set the evil dragon to zero health." Shen Ye said.

"Will it be too fake?" asked the inner demon.

"What's fake? This is not a novel - only novels require logic, the real world is very magical." Shen Ye said.

"I agree with this."

The inner demon picked up the third jade slip.

"I am Shen Ye."

"I was killed by a weird statue and traveled to another world."

"There is no 'disaster' or 'abnormality' here, only many women who love me."

"By the way, I just fell off a cliff and found a very deep cave halfway up the mountain."

"There is an old ape in the cave, speaking human language, and wants to teach me the secret technique."

"Due to copyright warnings, it hid one book and only took out another secret book called "Nine Mysterious Divine Art"."

“This is amazing kung fu!”

"I will soon be invincible and become the new father of the nation!"

After reading it, the inner demon was somewhat moved, but still put the jade slip down.

It read all the jade slips one by one.

Finally, it picked up a jade slip.

"If you weave such a fate with your heart, I will let you go."

The inner demon said.

At this time, all the jade slips on the table had been messed up, and Shen Ye didn't know which one it was holding.

"Let me see."

He took the jade slip, probed into it with his spiritual power, and immediately obtained the information in the jade slip:

"I heard that you have a beautiful white jade woman, carved by your skilled hands, with the most beautiful appearance. I am very eager to get her. Tonight, at midnight, I will come to get her under the moonlight. You are always elegant and kind, so you will not let me go back and forth in vain."

Shen Ye couldn't help but look at him with new eyes, and bowed to the inner demon and said:
"Young man, you have good vision."

the other side.

Deep in the sky of the Tai Shang Taoist Palace.

The head of the sect sat high on the platform, opened his eyes slightly, and whispered to himself:

"Can this still happen?"
