Gatekeeper of all realms

Chapter 374 Threesome!
"I'll repeat it again."

"who are you?"

There was no sound from the coffin.

Shen Ye continued:

"I don't really care who you are. I just care if you're kidding me."

"If you don't tell the truth, the trust between us is over."

"Then you will be locked up here forever. I swear I will not let you out."

Still no sound came from the coffin.

"Really? Would you rather be sealed here forever?"

"That's it, I wish you a happy seal here, I won't come again."

After Shen Ye finished speaking, he reached out to close the door.

"contract!"

A female voice came from the coffin.

"The contract will indeed constrain me," Shen Ye said, "but have you ever thought that if I report to the Sect Master first and then destroy the statue, it will be considered as fulfilling the agreement between you and me."

"You want to betray me?" the woman asked angrily.

"You were the first to have bad intentions," Shen Ye's voice drowned out hers, roaring, "What if there is something hidden in the statue? Wouldn't I die on the spot?"

The female voice paused.

"I saved your life," Shen Ye's voice became cold and ruthless, "Choose now, this is your last chance."

There was silence.

"farewell."

Shen Ye reached out to close the door.

A contract suddenly appeared before his eyes, and the contents on it were constantly changing.

——This is exactly the contract signed between him and Yun Ni.

"If you must know the truth, go and practice the Supreme Forgetfulness and Ascension Sutra."

"When you successfully transform your spiritual power and see the soul-type inner demon, I promise to tell you everything."

"If you are unable to master the Supreme Forgetfulness and Ascension Sutra, then you still need to smash the statue to remove the curse."

“—This is my final concession.”

Shen Ye finished reading it quickly and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

The Tai Shang Wang Qing Yu Hua Fei Sheng Sutra is related to that relic.

The ruins even helped him improve the power of the laws corresponding to this Taoist scripture.

What secrets does this scripture hold?
He mobilized all his strength, and with a whoosh sound, golden flame spirit light burst out of his body, continuously emitting strong power fluctuations in all directions.

"The nature of spiritual power has changed!"

The female voice said solemnly.

"Yes, I have met the requirements of the contract. Now tell me everything." Shen Ye said.

"What about the inner demon? Have you ever seen the inner demon?" asked the female voice.

"I have already arranged it for him." Shen Ye said.

"What kind of fate have you arranged for your inner demon?" the female voice asked.

"Live a carefree life." Shen Ye said.

"...It's unimaginable that you would just let your inner demons go like this." The female voice muttered to herself.

"Hey, why am I the one answering your questions all the time? It's obviously your turn to tell me the secret of the whole thing." Shen Ye said unhappily.

"I am Yun Ni's inner demon." The female voice suddenly said.

As her voice sounded, a faint light emanated from the contract.

Three lines of small words quickly appeared:
"As promised, the other party will tell you everything."

"The curse on you has been lifted."

"Whether you want to sign the contract from now on is up to you."

Collect all the fine print.

"Where is Yun Ni?" Shen Ye asked.

"She used extremely precious materials and completed a technique, sealing herself inside the statue," said the female voice.

"Why?" Shen Ye asked.

"First, there was no breakthrough, and second, the Holy Lord could eat her at any time, so she hid." said the female voice.

"You are her inner demon? Wait, so you have been doing all these things at her request?" Shen Ye said in surprise.

"The inner demon has all kinds of incredible abilities. Throughout the ages, countless cultivators have turned pale when talking about the inner demon."

"Only one great practitioner with extraordinary talent, who put all his efforts into it and came up with a brilliant idea, finally created a way to drive the inner demon to practice."

“——This is the Supreme Forgetfulness Ascension Sutra.”

"If you forget about emotions, you won't have to fear the demons in your heart."

"The word 'Yuhua Feisheng' describes the future of those who practice this scripture."

The female voice explained slowly.

Shen Ye pondered and said, "You asked me to smash the statue because you want to expose Yun Ni's hiding place, right?"

"That's right!" said the female voice.

"As an inner demon, you seem to hate Yun Ni very much?" Shen Ye asked.

"When one practices this Taoist scripture to a high level, one can control one's destiny with the inner demon, forming a force of destiny that devours everything. It is so powerful that one can almost be called 'invincible'!" said the female voice.

"Invincible?" Shen Ye said.

The female voice continued: "Yes, as Yun Ni's inner demon, my destiny is——"

"Continuously absorb the worship of all living beings. Once you reach the top, you can eat all living beings and enhance the power of the Dharma for Yun Ni - this is the fate that Yun Ni has set for me!"

Shen Ye was stunned and couldn't help asking:
"Wait...you mean, you eat living beings and she increases her dharma-image power?"

"Yes, do you know what the fate of the inner demon of the Master Saint is?" asked the female voice.

"do not know."

"It's 'Except for those who are the backbone of the sect and can promote the progress and strength of the sect, all other disciples of the sect must be devoured to enhance my power'."

Shen Ye held his breath.

Heart demon.

It is clearly an existence that can cause practitioners to go astray and makes everyone shudder at the mention of it.

Under the power of that scripture, it becomes the practitioner's servant and can help the practitioner increase his strength!
Unheard of! Unbelievable!

"Wait! Are you saying that that Saint is also a demon in his heart?" he asked.

"Correct."

"Where is the real Saint?"

"do not know."

"The Holy Lord only has the inner demon left, but Yun Ni still has no chance to defeat it?" Shen Ye asked again.

The female voice said, "The Saint's Dao Sutra has reached the ninth level, while Yun Ni has only reached the seventh level. Originally, there was only one way to go, which was death."

"Her strategy was to keep me on the rise."

The female voice continued, "If I become famous outside, I will add to the reputation of the sect. In this way, I can also be considered to be promoting the progress of the sect."

"——The inner demon of the Saint cannot kill the one who 'promotes the progress of the sect'!"

Shen Ye thought about it.

When I met the Holy Lord, I took out the immortal jade marrow that had existed for ten thousand years.

This is a treasure that can help the development of the entire sect!
So according to the will of fate, the Saint's inner demon did not ask any further questions and just left.

——I managed to survive by accident and by “promoting the progress of the sect”!

If I had answered honestly at that time, I might have died.

A chill ran up his spine, and Shen Ye couldn't help but touch his forehead.

My hands were covered in cold sweat.

"Since you are the inner demon... why did you become possessed?" Shen Ye asked.

"For those who practice the Tai Shang Wang Qing Yu Hua Fei Sheng Sutra, the inner demon they produce is actually exactly the same as themselves - for example, your inner demon is another you." said the female voice.

"The only difference is that you can decide his fate, and his gains will become your strength."

His harvest...

Shen Ye was a little hesitant.

The inner demon in me went to become a handsome thief.

What can he gain for himself?
You know what, it seems like I really gained something.

Shen Ye stretched out his hand and took out a picture album from the void.

Just flip through it.

All are sketches of beautiful women.

Asshole!
Other people's inner demons do great things, helping their masters to continuously improve their strength, but you gave me a sketch of a beautiful woman?
——There’s not even any animated pictures!

Bad review!

He calmly put the album away and asked again:

"Why do you want to attack the statue? Do you know that if you do that, Yun Ni who is hiding inside will be exposed immediately?"

"She can't defeat the Saint's inner demon, so her only fate is death."

This time, the female voice carried some emotion:
"I am just a puppet that she pushed to the front, pretending to be famous every day, and then I have to eat people to support her——"

"I want her dead!"

Shen Ye pondered her words carefully, yet he could also hear a hint of bitterness in them, and couldn't help but sigh softly.

——This is to squeeze the inner demons to the point of rebelling against fate.

just now.

How should I deal with all this?

"Forget it. The fight between you has nothing to do with me."

"I can save your life. Once all your injuries are healed, you can go do your thing."

"What about you?" the female voice asked. "I'm going back to the sect." Shen Ye said.

——The ruins are still somewhat useful and can help everyone become stronger.

So from now on, I will stay in the sect honestly.

Anyway, Tu Fusheng is here to help sponsor the funds.

Try to protect yourself by gaining the reputation of "promoting the sect's progress".

As for the affairs between the sect’s Saint and Yun Ni, he would not get involved.

Shen Ye was thinking with a relaxed look on his face, when he heard the female voice again:

"In fact, at the beginning, Sheng Zun and Yun Ni's target was the ascended Chatelaine."

Chatelet.

Shen Ye was stunned, and his heart tightened.

Yes.

At the beginning, Yun Ni was chasing after Chatley.

"Why Chatelet?" Shen Ye asked.

"What I am about to tell you next is something extremely secret. If anyone knows it, you will die." said the female voice.

Shen Ye waved his hand.

The dark torrent of destruction all around erupted with a roar.

They enveloped everything and completely isolated this place.

"You can tell me now." Shen Ye said.

The female voice hesitated for a moment before speaking:
"This is the deepest secret. Only those who have successfully practiced the Supreme Forgetfulness and Ascension Sutra will know it."

"——You will soon be able to learn the knowledge and skills of various professions through your inner demons, and become extremely powerful."

"Me? Know about various professions?"

Shen Ye said in a deep voice, word by word: "I also have inner demons, but I don't have any sensitivity to other professions—"

"You don't have to lie like that."

"I'm not lying to you. In fact, everyone has inner demons," the female voice sounded again, "It's just that ordinary professionals can never detect them, and may even mistakenly think that they are 'me'."

"The inner demon can know all kinds of professions in all realms over the endless years - as long as the profession has not reached the level of myths and legends."

Shen Ye shook his head subconsciously.

If the Tai Shang Wang Qing Yu Hua Fei Sheng Jing can know the knowledge and skills of all professions, it can be said to be an extremely powerful Taoist scripture.

——Why are there only three people repairing it?
“You think I’m lying to you, is it because there are too few people practicing this sutra?” the female voice said.

"Yes." Shen Ye said without hiding anything.

“When this Taoist scripture first fell from the extremely high universe to the ninety-ninth universe, it really caused a sensation.”

The female voice continued slowly:
"But it's too difficult, and most people just can't understand it."

"There are always masters with outstanding talents, and they should be able to understand Taoist scriptures." Shen Ye said.

"You are right. The top masters from other universes discovered that this was a Taoist scripture from the cultivation side at the first time."

"Out of caution, they first asked the practitioners around them."

“The feedback we received was:”

"——The inner demon tribulation is an extremely terrifying thing. Every time you advance to a higher level, you have to face the inner demon tribulation. If you can't get through it, you will die."

“This has dissuaded a large number of people from joining.”

"What about the rest of the people?" Shen Ye asked.

"——A powerful person made a divination based on the Taoist scriptures and learned the truth:"

"It is impossible to cultivate to the end with only the Dao Sutra."

"Only with the complete heritage of the relics can the full power of the Dao Sutra be unleashed."

Shen Ye suddenly remembered the ruins.

"Yes," the female voice continued, "--only two layers were left when the ruins fell down!"

"This means that it is impossible to reach the peak of this sutra."

“So the vast majority of people gave up.”

"Why would Master Shengzun and Yun Ni learn it?" Shen Ye asked.

"The Holy Lord has not improved his realm for 4,500 years. If he cannot break through in the future, he will die." said the female voice.

"I see. He has no way - what about Yun Ni?"

"She wants to prove that her understanding of the Dao Sutra is better than that of the Saint, so that she can replace him and become the new head."

Shen Ye thought about it for a while.

The other party spoke very convincingly and there seemed to be no problem.

However, to me, these people are not important at all. The only thing I need to care about is——

"Why did they kill Chatelet?"

Shen Ye asked.

The female voice said, "The profession that Chatelet possesses has only appeared in myths and legends. Even the inner demons cannot peek into it."

"——Both Shengzun and Yun Ni want to acquire the knowledge and skills of that profession."

Shen Ye's eyes turned dark and deep, and a murderous intent surged from him.

Chatelet's profession was the "Lord of Living Souls" among the "Lord of Lifeless Souls". Later, when this profession was about to be advanced, he returned the "Lord of Lifeless Souls" to himself.

It was this action that made Chatelet realize his own heart and take the initiative to open his heart to him.

——The “Lord of the Immortal Soul” must have advanced.

So she ascended here and immediately got into big trouble.

"last question."

Shen Ye said: "How do you prove that the inner demon can know all knowledge and skills?"

The female voice said: "It's very simple. As long as you also pass the inner demon and understand the knowledge and skills of various professions, you will know that what I said is true."

"I can't do it yet." Shen Ye said.

"In fact, you will soon realize this, but I will tell you in advance - you only need to recite the magic spell in the second level of the Taoist Scripture: 'Since time immemorial, all the actions of sentient beings, those who choose their spirits, will appear in their hearts.'"

After hearing this, Shen Ye immediately remembered the contents of the Taoist scriptures.

The battle guidance master also marked this magic spell, saying that it was a spell that could be used after one had an inner demon calamity.

It’s just that I was too busy and never remembered to try it.

"From eternity, all that living beings have done, those who choose their spirits, are manifested in their hearts."

Shen Ye muttered silently.

All of a sudden.

Endless battle scenes appeared in his mind.

——Those are scenes of all living beings fighting.

Countless knowledge and skills emerged in Shen Ye's mind.

Small words quickly appeared in the dim light:
"You activated the Heart Demon Divine Mantra of the Supreme Forgetfulness Feathering Ascension Sutra."

"Your strength is the seventh level of the Dharma Realm."

"You are currently comprehending all the professional skills and knowledge that a seventh-level professional in the Dharma Realm can master (mythical and below)."

too strong!
This scripture is so powerful, those who hesitate to try it are really stupid!
Shen Ye was thinking about it when he suddenly came to his senses.

wrong.

People have considered it very carefully and that's why they don't practice it.

As for myself——

With the help of his omniscience and the power of the door, he was able to open another part of the ruins.

Maybe I can complete the practice of this Tai Shang Wang Qing Mei Xiang Fei Sheng Sutra!

Shen Ye closed his eyes for a moment, continued to master those professional skills and knowledge, and asked:
"This is too much - as the saying goes, you can't chew too much. Will Sheng Zun and Yun Ni take the time to learn all the skills? It's unlikely."

The female voice said: "Of course it's impossible. Every time the Saint increases his strength, he chooses the strongest professional skill."

"Where is Yun Ni?" Shen Ye asked.

"Yun Ni chose the skills that best suit her." said the female voice.

"...In that case, I think Yun Ni will go further." Shen Ye said.

"Now it's your turn to choose." said the female voice.

Shen Ye pondered for a moment.

In fact, he has the archery skill "Star Edge" and the sword skill "Thinking of You", and also has the three professional skills of the Netherworld Spirit Envoy.

In fact, I should improve my career in the fairyland.

As for skills...

There are a lot of interesting skills.

Should you choose the strongest one like Saint Saint, or choose the most suitable one like Yun Ni?

Choose the best one!

Shen Ye was thinking when a thought suddenly flashed through his mind.

No.

...Specifically for me, the most suitable method is actually another one.

As soon as his mind moved, small words appeared in a faint glow:

"You have activated the dark gold item 'Vampire Baby'."

"Now we can merge."

"Do you want to integrate all the seven-level professional skills you know about the Dharma Realm?"

That's right!

Sheng Zun chose the strongest, Yun Ni chose the most suitable, but I am different from them!
I can understand it all!

"Fusion."

Shen Ye said.
