Gatekeeper of all realms

Chapter 383 Penglai! Penglai!
"Your entry is too impressive. You should learn to hide your shortcomings in the future."

Xu Xingke warned.

"Yes." Xiao Mengyu responded.

"But I think there is still room for your ability to grow. You must improve your ability as soon as possible in the future. It will improve as your swordsmanship improves." Xu Xingke said again.

"Can this name be improved?" Xiao Mengyu was stunned.

"Of course, the term "creator" wouldn't stop here."

Xu Xingke said in a matter-of-fact tone.

They were talking.

Shen Ye squatted on the ground, looking at the colorful gem carefully.

This thing is weird.

In the identification ability that comes with the "Door" ability, there is only a line of "???" next to it.

I have no idea what it is.

This is how to do.

Shen Ye pondered for a moment, then suddenly slapped his head.

Stupid!

Didn’t you just get an entry?

As his thoughts continued, lines of small black vertical characters finally appeared:

"You activated the mythical term 'Tool of Fate'."

"The profile of this gem is as follows:"

"Souls that seem to be destroyed,"

"Under the power of that spell, they turned into colorful gems and scattered into pieces of a puzzle that would never work."

"It's been too long,"

"It's been so long that even the enemy thinks these gems are just dead objects with no meaning."

"unless--"

"Someone has gained the approval of Mount Penglai and crushed it in the Penglai Holy Site on no less than the third level."

"He's going to get that real answer."

The interpretation is out!
The so-called Penglai Holy Site is the ruins today.

He also gained the recognition of the Lord of Penglai Mountain.

So……

Shen Ye turned his gaze and looked at the spiraling stairs.

My heart felt itchy.

I really want to try this gem and see how the fairyland went to destruction.

This will be of great benefit to him in re-examining the situation, looking for opportunities, and rebuilding the fairyland.

After all, Chatelet and I each have our own unique skills, and are closely related to the affairs of the fairyland.

At this moment, the bust once again uttered a puzzled voice:

"Your Supreme Forgetfulness Feathering Ascension Sutra is maturing, and you even have a special law for the transformation of your Dharmadhatu—"

"But I clearly did not give you such a law."

"This is really strange."

Shen Ye came back to his senses and asked, "Can you give me other rewards?"

"What do you want?" asked the bust.

"——For the newcomers who are still in the trial, I hope their trial will experience some twists and turns and be delayed for a little longer." Shen Ye said.

"No one ever asked for such a reward!" cried the bust, almost jumping up.

"Is it okay?" Shen Ye asked.

The bust said solemnly: "Of course not! This statue is very strict, you are disturbing others-"

"Delaying everyone's trial time is to find the other half of the ruins." Shen Ye interrupted and explained.

"The other half of the ruins? Are you sure?" asked the bust.

"Of course, just use some time to buy time for others and cover for me. I will definitely be able to find it." Shen Ye said.

"Okay, I'll try my best to help you delay time. I wish you success." The bust said, and suddenly flashed and disappeared.

Shen Ye stood up, holding the gem, and walked up the stairs step by step.

He came to the break in the step and held out his hand.

"Door!"

A door quietly appeared.

At this moment, as long as you open the door, you can reach the other side of the ruins.

Xu Xingke's voice suddenly sounded:
"Wait a moment."

Shen Ye stopped and turned to look at him.

--strangeness.

Last time, the teacher didn’t even stop me.

"The gem in your hand," Xu Xingke stared at Shen Ye's hand, "if you use it, you will definitely be involved in the destruction of the Immortal Kingdom."

"Teacher, do you think I shouldn't care about that matter?" Shen Ye asked.

"No, I'm just reminding you—"

Xu Xingke looked somewhat relaxed, but his tone was extremely serious:

"The affairs of the Immortal Kingdom are extremely sinister, but they are also related to extremely hidden and important secrets in the Ten Thousand Worlds. Once you step into it, you will never be able to withdraw, and you are very likely to die."

Shen Ye said: "What would the teacher think if I got involved?"

"I didn't think much about it - this is your own business, I won't interfere." Xu Xingke said.

"understood."

Shen Ye exerted force with his hands and pushed the door open.

Behind the door was a long staircase that led into the darkness.

Upstairs is the lounge.

Going further up is the third level of the Penglai Holy Ruins.

"Teacher, Mengyu, you guys take a rest here, I'll go take a look."

Shen Ye said.

"What are you talking about? Are you looking down on me?" Xiao Mengyu said dissatisfiedly.

She flew up, landed on the steps, nodded her chin, and signaled Shen Ye to go up quickly.

Xu Xingke said enthusiastically:
"Don't waste time, hurry up, I've always been curious about the secrets of the fairyland."

He also landed on the steps.

"Teacher, didn't you say that this is my own business and you won't interfere?" Shen Ye asked in a low voice.

"Ah, well, that's just talk. I just want to see if you would be afraid of this kind of thing." Xu Xingke said.

Shen Ye grinned.

Old money.

Old silver coin.

This is the teacher I trust the most!
He walked through the door without looking back and kept going upstairs.

Xiao Mengyu and Xu Xingke followed closely behind.

The three of them went all the way to the lounge, then walked through the lounge, went up one level, and arrived at the third level of the ruins.

This level is not much different from the previous levels.

The only difference is that the ceiling is inlaid with dense magic runes and fairy jade, which looks like a sky full of stars.

"What will happen?"

Xu Xingke lit a cigarette and asked with interest.

Xiao Mengyu silently moved closer to Shen Ye, with his hand on the sword, as if ready to fight at any time.

Shen Ye held up the colorful gem.

The bust went to stall for time.

I completed the first two trials very quickly, so I had plenty of time.

There is no surveillance from the Supreme Life-Binding Soul-Refining Palace here.

Try it!
He squeezed it hard, and with a "click" sound, the colorful gem broke instantly.

"Well."

Shen Ye, Xu Xingke, and Xiao Mengyu spoke at the same time.

It felt like being pricked by a needle and the pain was unbearable.

A strange memory emerged.

The magic circle on the ceiling also lit up, releasing a dazzling light that enveloped the entire place.

Moment.

The three disappeared at the same time.

……

Su Changfeng woke up with a splitting headache.

I got drunk last night and vomited this morning. My temple felt like it was being stabbed by a knife.

no way.

too painful.

He looked at the endless fairy mountains hidden in the clouds not far away and sighed with a bleak face.

"Master, don't be sad. It's their own loss if Penglai Fairy Mountain doesn't accept you."

A voice sounded.

It was the comforting voice of the butler Fu Bo.

Then, a clear female voice sounded:
"Changfeng, why don't you go to my sect?"

"I'll ask my master to take you in personally. For my sake, all my brothers and sisters will lend you a helping hand!"

No need to think, this is Liu Taiwei's voice.

She has always been by his side, and even came along for the selection ceremony for new disciples at the Penglai Fairy Mountain.

It’s a pity that I was not selected.

Forget it.

There is no place to stay here.

Even so——

Su Changfeng's heart was still filled with sadness.

He sighed and was about to respond to their concern when he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his head like a needle.

Countless strange memories emerged.

In this memory that felt as if I had experienced it myself, I saw what happened next.

A few dozen breaths later.

The demon king from outer space stormed into the Penglai Fairy Mountain.

Life is charcoal.

All defenses and counterattacks became pale and powerless.

Under the impact of the powerful magic, he, Uncle Fu, and Liu Taiwei were skinned alive and died on the spot.

Damn it!

Could it be that I have awakened the ability of prophecy?

He turned around suddenly and saw that Uncle Fu and Liu Taiwei also changed their expressions, as if they remembered something.

"You also gained that memory?"

Su Changfeng asked.

"If everything is true, three butterflies will immediately fly out from the grass," said Liu Taiwei.

As soon as he finished speaking, three butterflies flew over the bushes opposite the three people.

The three of them looked at each other.

"Let's go! Let's go!"

Su Changfeng stood up and said.

Uncle Fu immediately released the flying boat and helped Su Changfeng up.

Liu Taiwei jumped onto the deck of the flying boat, holding a long sword, and looked around vigilantly.

"rise."

Uncle Fu made a hand gesture with both hands.

The flying boat suddenly rushed into the sky and was about to escape.

"coming!"

Liu Taiwei lost his voice.

Su Changfeng and Uncle Fu looked into the depths of the sky together.

A huge black face covered the entire sky, emitting a monstrous demonic aura.

It took a deep breath and opened its mouth -

"No! I can't run away!"

Su Changfeng said quickly.

As he remembered, the first strike was so powerful that it could instantly kill everything in the sky!
Will die!
But there is no other way.

Uncle Fu pinched seals with his hands and pushed the flying boat with all his strength, increasing its speed to the extreme.

But the dark magic light in the sky is like a boundless sea.

The entire sea collapsed.

The area within thousands of miles will bear this blow.

"The Dharma image unfolds!"

Uncle Fu shouted, and an endless Great Wall appeared behind him, and he formed a magic seal with his hands.

Three huge bodies of gods emerged one after another, standing on the Great Wall, with their arms opened together, trying to block the dark magic light descending from the sky.

The magic light comes into contact with the Dharma.

boom--

The Dharma image was destroyed and disappeared without a trace.

Uncle Fu spat out a mouthful of blood, then fell on the flying boat and fell into a coma.

"I come!"

Liu Taiwei steadied the flying boat with one hand, urging it to continue rushing forward, while with the other hand he made a sword gesture.

Clang——

The flying sword broke through the air, piercing through the endless darkness and magic light.

Su Changfeng had an ominous premonition in his heart and could no longer suppress it. He suddenly stood up and shouted:

"No!"

He rushed forward a few steps, grabbed Uncle Fu, and stood in front of Liu Taiwei again.

Then came the all-destroying attack.

In the deep space, a magnificent whisper sounded:

"The Name of the Earth? What a pity! You are so immature! Watch me destroy you in one move!"

Endless demonic light rushed towards the flying boat.

Between the lightning and flint——

Su Changfeng stretched out his hand and pressed into the void, opening a large door and blocking the three people.

As soon as the door opened, his overall attributes suddenly dropped sharply and he almost collapsed to the ground.

But inside the door was a prison.

A giant with purple skin sat in the cell, grinning:

"Which crazy fool dares to provoke——"

"Grass."

Dark magic light surged in.

boom! ! !
"Ah ah ah ah ah."

Su Changfeng held the door with all his strength and kept the magic light inside.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Liu Taiwei used all his strength to drive the flying boat.

Uncle Fu also woke up, gritted his teeth, took out a talisman and pasted it on the flying boat.

The speed of the flying boat increased again.

finally--

It flew out of the range covered by the dark magic light and escaped!

A female voice suddenly sounded in the ears of the three people:

"This technique isolates an area of ​​3,000 miles, and can also continuously attack the isolated Penglai."

"Three fellow Taoists, you are the only ones who escaped."

"Please go to Guanghan Palace as soon as possible and inform Guanghan Tianzun of the war here."

"Everyone in Penglai Mountain is grateful to you!"

"quick!"

The words fell.

The flying boat was suddenly hit by something and broke into pieces.

The three were thrown out immediately.

Su Changfeng was in mid-air, just as he was trying to steady himself, when he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his head.

and many more……

Who is Su Changfeng...?
I am Shen Ye!
He suddenly opened his eyes, only to find himself still standing in the trial field on the third floor.

Xu Xingke and Xiao Mengyu, who were standing nearby, also opened their eyes.

All three of them had an expression of surprise on their faces.

Shen Ye suddenly realized something and said, "Look."

He spread his hands.

At some point, a colorful gem appeared in his hand.

"Was this gem given by that woman's voice?"

Xiao Mengyu asked curiously.

"I don't know, it suddenly appeared in my hands." Shen Ye said.

"Interesting... so interesting..." Xu Xingke said softly.

Shen Ye and Xiao Mengyu looked at him together.

"Teacher, do you know?"

Shen Ye asked.

"Now I know. This is that person's unique power... She turned everything into gems to leave a glimmer of hope." Xu Xingke said with emotion.

"You mean--" Xiao Mengyu hesitated.

"Yes, that person is the Lord of Penglai Mountain. She guards the strongest of the three arts of the Immortal Kingdom—"

"Tongtian!"

Xu Xingke's voice moved Shen Ye and Xiao Mengyu.

"Since Tongtianjutsu is the strongest, why doesn't she learn it? If she learns it, she can fight against those monsters from outer space."

Xiao Mengyu asked in confusion.

Xu Xingke explained patiently:
"Tongtian is the most difficult. It is a technique composed of countless fragments, such as obtaining the Dharma image of the fairyland, special Taoist scriptures, specific destiny requirements, exclusive entries, extremely difficult trials, and so on and so forth."

"Many have tried to practice it over the years, but after learning a little bit, as I said—"

"Once they fail at a certain step, the entire technique will immediately collapse, and there will be no chance to rebuild it again."

Xu Xingke sighed and said, "It's too difficult."

"So the Penglai Fairy Mountain was destroyed and the Fairyland was also destroyed." Shen Ye said.

The three of them looked at the second colorful gem in Shen Ye's hand.

"Do you want to continue?"

Shen Ye asked.

"You can try it." Xu Xingke said.

"I forgot to use 'name' just now. Give me another chance." Xiao Mengyu said regretfully.

Shen Ye nodded and activated the entry "Tool of Destiny".

Lines of small black characters quickly appeared:
"The imprisoned Immortal Mountain cannot wait for any rescue and will be completely destroyed by the attacks in the universe;"

"However, when Su Changfeng escaped and went to seek help, this result became the enemy's fantasy;"

"Keep going, you who have lent a helping hand because of this technique."

"Try to make Penglai Fairy Mountain last longer."

"Maybe you can win the next gem."

That's it!

Shen Ye squeezed the gem hard.

All of a sudden.

The three disappeared.

……

Penglai Fairy Mountain.

inner door.

An ordinary disciple climbed up from the bed, groaning in pain.

Strange memories flooded into my mind.

This disciple's name is Zhao Xingshi, and he is a true disciple.

He was sued by a female inner sect disciple because of his reckless words and deeds when pursuing her.

The law enforcement monk on that day happened to be the female disciple's uncle, and he demoted Zhao Xingshi from a true disciple to an ordinary inner disciple on the spot.

He must gain enough merits to atone for his sins and return to the position of true successor.

But it's too late!

tomorrow--

——At noon tomorrow, the entire Penglai will be destroyed!
"Damn it... I don't know where the teacher and Mengyu are..."

Zhao Xingshi rubbed his temples and muttered to himself.

He was about to stand up when he suddenly stopped.

This time, he knew that he was Shen Ye and had obtained all of Zhao Xingshi’s memories.

——As a true disciple of Penglai, this fellow has already practiced the Tai Shang Wang Qing Yu Hua Fei Sheng Sutra to a very good level.

His insights and experiences are extremely useful to me.

Shen Ye simply sat cross-legged, silently absorbing the knowledge in his memory.

About a quarter of an hour.

He opened his eyes.

The glimmer of light emerged as small words, flashing before my eyes:
"Congratulations."

"You practiced the Supreme Forgetful Passion Feathered Ascension Sutra and further mastered the secrets of this sutra, thus gaining the effect of 'Demon Heart Seed Soul'."

"Description: Your inner demon can practice in the Dharma Realm, and its practice speed will be increased three times. Whenever its practice level increases, your practice level will also increase accordingly."

Cattle!
This Taoist scripture is simply amazing!

Shen Ye immediately put his inner demon into the Dharma image and asked it to sit upright under the stone tablet, cross-legged and close its eyes to practice.

As he observed the inner demon's cultivation, a sense of enlightenment gradually arose in his heart.

The inner demon's cultivation efficiency is extremely high.

This is not actually a speed increase, but a three-fold increase in efficiency!
Unfortunately--

Zhao Xingshi has only been practicing for a short time and is still young, so his current level of practice is only the seventh level of the Dharma Realm.

One level lower than Shen Ye.

——I can’t take advantage of his practice experience!

Forget it, people shouldn’t be too greedy.

Get down to business first.

Shen Ye stretched his body and after adjusting himself a little, he left the cave and flew straight towards the Demon-Subduing Palace.

"Zhao Xingshi!"

As soon as he landed, someone called him.

Shen Ye turned his head and saw several male and female disciples standing not far away, looking at him warily.

I searched my memory and immediately matched them one by one.

What a coincidence.

It was this group of inner disciples who caused Zhao Xingshi to be demoted from the position of true disciple.

"Junior Sister Yue'er has clearly avoided you, but you still want to come and harass her. Aren't you afraid of being demoted to an outer sect servant?"

A male disciple shouted angrily.

Shen Ye was stunned and his eyes fell on the female disciple among the people.

The female disciple seems to be called Li Yue'er.

She looks okay, but looks delicate and vulnerable.

Some men like this type.

and many more!

Why are you crying?

"Brother Zhao, my uncle was also angry at the time. Don't blame him. If you have anything to say, just come to me."

Li Yue'er's eyes were red and she spoke with sobs.

Her crying made the male and female disciples even more angry.

"Look at what you've done, Zhao Xingshi. If you want to mess with Junior Sister Yue'er, come after me!"

Another male disciple jumped out and drew his sword to block Li Yue'er.

Others also shouted.

The noise became louder and louder.

The monks around all looked over.

Suddenly a female voice sounded:
"Why are you making so much noise here and disturbing the order of the sect?"

Everyone fell silent.

But then a female cultivator flew down and stood between the two groups of people.

She held a whisk in her hand.

——This means that she is the law enforcement monk of the Demon-Subduing Temple today!

"Senior sister, Zhao Xingshi has been pestering Li Yue'er endlessly, and today he is pestering me again. I beg you to understand!"

A male disciple said.

The female cultivator had a frosty face and eyes as fast as lightning as she swept across the entire audience.

The monks who were watching the fun suddenly fell silent.

"it's me."

A voice sounded in Shen Ye's ears.

——Xiao Mengyu!

Has she become a law enforcement monk?
Shen Ye couldn't help but look at her, only to see her blinking rapidly.

"Zhao Xingshi!"

Xiao Mengyu shouted loudly.

"Here!" Shen Ye replied.

"Let me ask you, before you came to this temple to exorcise demons, did you say anything frivolous to Li Yue'er?" Xiao Mengyu asked.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Shen Ye clasped his fists and said:

"The disciple said nothing."

"Have you ever offended her with your hands or feet?" Xiao Mengyu asked again.

"The disciple was about to enter the main hall to receive the mission, but was blocked here by them." Shen Ye said again.

"Cheating a law enforcement monk is a serious crime. Are you sure you want to say that?"

"No deception."

The disciples on the opposite side were stunned.

Li Yue'er's face changed drastically, and she said hurriedly:
"Wait a moment--"

Xiao Mengyu had already made a hand gesture and shouted, "Wait until I activate the photo in front of the hall, and then we'll know the truth."

The magic is activated.

Immediately, light and shadow appeared in front of everyone.

Zhao Xingshi was seen falling from the sky and was about to step into the hall when he was stopped by several people.

They shouted and cursed, and provoked, and even jumped out with swords to attack.

The truth came out.

The monks around couldn't help but sneer.

"What? How can you frame someone like this?"

"These guys are too much."

“I think they have a problem with their brains.”

"Yes."

Everyone was talking about it.

Those people looked embarrassed and were speechless for a while.

Xiao Mengyu waved his hand, took out the law enforcement book, and read:

"If you deliberately slander your fellow students and ruin their reputation, you will be fined three years' salary and forced to face the wall for three months."

“I hope you’ve learned your lesson.”

"Let's go now."

Those people's faces turned green, but they didn't dare to say anything.

Li Yueer hurried forward, bowed and said:

"Senior sister, please understand. I have no intention of making things difficult for Zhao Xingshi. It's just that the last incident hurt me too deeply, so several fellow Taoists rushed to protect me. Now it seems that it was just a misunderstanding."

"Misunderstanding?" Xiao Mengyu sneered.

If this wasn't Penglai, if I didn't have other things to do, I wouldn't be talking so much nonsense with them.

A sword is enough.

"Slow!" An angry shout came from the sky.

Li Yueer looked up and said happily, "Uncle!"

A middle-aged monk in a blue Taoist robe came down and bowed to Xiao Mengyu, saying:

"Friend Zhou, it's just a small matter, why do you have to punish me so severely? I think you should just forget it."

Xiao Mengyu said coldly: "Friend Li, I am the one enforcing the law today, not you."

The middle-aged monk was angry for a moment, but then he smiled and said in a gentle voice:
"Fellow Daoist Zhou may not know that Li Yue'er has been noticed by Elder Wang and will be appointed as a true disciple soon. If you punish her severely for some trivial matters now, I'm afraid Elder Wang will be unhappy."

Xiao Mengyu also laughed.

"Friend Li, Zhao Xingshi was also a true disciple last time, but he was severely punished by you and demoted to an ordinary disciple, right?"

She said calmly, raised her hand and made a seal on the law enforcement book.

The Taoist book emitted a faint light.

——The punishment has been determined!
"Zhao Xingshi, let me ask you, why did I punish you last time?" Xiao Mengyu asked again.

"It seemed like... there was a bug crawling on Li Yue'er's shoulder, and I brushed it away for her." Shen Ye recalled.

This recollection made me realize that this was indeed the case.

Is it necessary to change the fate of a practitioner just for this matter?

What a child's play!
Shen Ye paused and continued to dig into Zhao Xingshi's memory.

wrong.

The number of true disciples in Penglai Fairy Mountain is limited, and only when one person withdraws can one person enter.

Only after he comes down can Li Yue'er go up.

——This is a frame-up!

As for why no one stood up for Zhao Xingshi——

Because the elder who had high hopes for Zhao Xingshi was out fighting demons and defending the Dao, but he was outnumbered and seriously injured, and has been confined to his room for several months.

They said he might not be able to survive any longer.

Tsk!
——It seems that it is unavoidable no matter where you work.

"We have important things to do, so let's send them away first and don't bother with these little things." Shen Ye said in a nonchalant voice.

"No, I have to take care of it." Xiao Mengyu transmitted the message.

"what?"

"If it could be changed... I don't want to see this innocent teenager being slandered."

Shen Ye was silent for a moment, and his voice became softer:
"...Okay, let's deal with it."

But the monk surnamed Li's face changed and he stretched out his hand to release a communication talisman.

"Let Brother Zhou know that Elder Wang is paying close attention to what's going on here, and he'll be here soon."

The words have not yet fallen.

An old Taoist suddenly appeared in front of everyone.

Everyone couldn't help but bow together:
"I've met Elder Wang."

"Li Yue'er." The old Taoist waved.

Li Yue'er was delighted and ran over to stand beside the old Taoist priest.

The old Taoist looked kind, looked around, and said with a smile:

"Forget about the little things here."

Everyone nodded quickly.

The old Taoist took Li Yue'er with him and turned to leave.

Xiao Mengyu's voice suddenly came:

"Elder Wang, this matter is indeed small, but we can't just let it go."

"It is intolerable to arbitrarily smear others and take away their identity."

"In addition, I will enforce the law impartially. Even if I report this to the Sect Master, you will not have the right to veto the Sect's laws."

Everyone gasped.

This law enforcement monk is going to confront the sect’s elders head-on?
You must be impatient to live!

Elder Wang also paused, slowly turned around and looked at Xiao Mengyu, his eyes falling on the long sword at her waist.

"Sword cultivator..."

There was a flash of resentment in his eyes.

A tremendous aura emanated from him, sweeping across the entire venue.

Xiao Mengyu's voice became calmer:
"Elder Wang, interfering with the sect's law enforcement is a serious crime. I can help."

"You are just a law enforcement monk at the twelfth level of the Dharma Realm. How dare you talk to me about the sect's laws?" Elder Wang sneered.

"Elder, please think twice."

"Have you thought it through? Are you going to attack me?" Elder Wang said jokingly.

Xiao Mengyu's hand was on the hilt of the sword.

Above her head, the crimson entry “Creator of the Earth” suddenly emitted a faint light.

"If you interfere with law enforcement again, I will kill you."

Xiao Mengyu said lightly.
