Myriad Realms Gatekeeper-Chapter 1004 - 471: So It Was Her!

"Blood Emperor."

"Ultimate creation entry, host-type entry, symbiotic entry."

"Description: You will be drawn by a mysterious force and encounter two others with the same entry; you must defeat them to trigger the final evolution of the entry."

"—Choose, or be chosen, there is no escape."

Shen Ye quickly read through it, feigned ignorance, and turned to help Zhang Xiaoyi up.

"Are you hurt?"

He asked.

"I’m fine, I was just held up earlier—who would’ve thought the monsters here could immobilize people?" Zhang Xiaoyi said, still shaken.

"If all the monsters here have that ability, things will get dangerous later on." Nangong Sirui added.

Shen Ye nodded, just about to speak when he suddenly took out his identity verification card.

Nangong Sirui and Zhang Xiaoyi did the same.

All three cards were vibrating.

A message appeared on the cards:

"Order from the City Dispatch Center, emergency personnel reassignment:"

"Su Su is being reassigned for another mission."

"A substitute will arrive to join your team within a few minutes."

After reading the message, the three of them turned to look at Su Su.

"I received the message too," Su Su said openly, waving her card, "a Flame Demon Dragon has awakened, and they need professionals like me who control Frost elements to assist."

So that’s how it is!

Xiao San and A Yi both nodded in understanding.

"Then let’s hold off on advancing for now. We’ll wait for the substitute to arrive," Nangong Sirui said.

The group had traveled a long distance and fought a battle; they decided to rest at their current spot for now.

Before long.

Su Su suddenly sensed something, stood up, and said: "I feel them approaching—I’ll be leaving now."

"Do you need someone to escort you?" Nangong Sirui asked.

"No need," Su Su glanced at Shen Ye and smiled, "Brother Shen Ye, don’t forget our agreement."

"Alright." Shen Ye agreed.

Su Su turned and left.

Her figure gradually disappeared down the tunnel.

"What agreement did you two make?"

Zhang Xiaoyi could not help but ask.

"I’m not sure; something about helping her with something when she returns." Shen Ye replied.

Zhang Xiaoyi rolled his eyes.

—You agreed even though you’re not clear about it.

Because you think she’s cute, huh?

The next second.

He suddenly sensed something.

"They’re here!"

Before the words were finished, two figures appeared at the same time.

A middle-aged man with a grim expression.

A burly, bald giant.

Above both their heads floated a "Blood Emperor" entry.

—It was clear they were sent here temporarily by the Parasitic Empress!

The battle erupted instantly.

"Although the order is to help with the fight, I need to test your abilities first."

The middle-aged man flexed his joints.

He vanished from his spot, suddenly appearing behind Shen Ye.

Iron claws collided with the Green Demon Blade.

The two of them stepped back at the same time.

"Not bad for someone so young." The middle-aged man remarked in surprise.

"Is fighting a must?" Shen Ye asked.

"How can professionals improve without sparring?" The middle-aged man replied solemnly.

Nangong Sirui and Zhang Xiaoyi were about to step in, but the bald giant spoke up and blocked them.

"What, don’t you have faith in your teammate? Are you afraid of a sparring match?"

The bald giant chuckled.

His comment backed both of them into a corner.

In an exploration team, sparring was a quick way to build familiarity among unfamiliar teammates.

No one could argue with that logic.

"Ridiculous, I’m just worried that you’ll die at his hands." Nangong Sirui said coldly.

"Let’s see who’s testing who. If you die, don’t blame us for not stopping it." Zhang Xiaoyi retorted sarcastically.

As they spoke, the battle in the center grew even more intense.

The middle-aged man’s physique transformed into claw-like ghostly shadows, darting back and forth through the void, leaving sharp gashes in his wake.

Shen Ye’s long blade dissolved into invisibility, each swing releasing countless bursts of sword light.

Claw and blade clashed relentlessly.

Ever since the Nine Layered Law Realm’s cap was lifted on Death Planet, many people had advanced rapidly.

But.

None as fast as Shen Ye.

His substitute dug for resources 24 hours a day and trained nonstop for another 24 hours, with a time flow rate where three months equaled one day.

Now, Shen Ye had already reached the Sixteenth Layer of Law Realm.

Unless someone was originally from another universal level and unaffected by Death Planet’s restrictions, only then could they compare or surpass him in strength.

After briefly exchanging blows with the middle-aged man, Shen Ye grasped his tactics.

Eighteenth Layer of Magical Realm.

Skilled techniques.

If this fight continued, who knew how long it would take to determine a winner.

Clang!

A crisp collision erupted.

Shen Ye was sent flying and crashed against the wall at the end of the hall.

His hands were slightly numb.

The opponent’s strength attribute was far higher than his own.

—If he used the entry, his chances of victory would increase.

Should he defeat him or just lose?

Shen Ye suddenly felt agitated.

Why?

He had worked so hard for so long, struggled, fought, racked his brains, endured injuries, exhausting every possibility.

And when the multiverse entered the Sixth Era—

The Parasitic Empress simply awakened, restored everyone’s memories, and seized control of everything?

Now even *he* had to work for her?

"There’s an opening, kid."

The middle-aged man suddenly appeared on the wall, his sharp claws reaching for Shen Ye.

Shen Ye hesitated.

Su Rong’s voice suddenly rang out:

"If you lose, the entry will degrade to ’Blood Seed.’"

As soon as the Parasitic Empress left, Su Rong had returned!

Lose.

Degrade to "Blood Seed"?

Blood Seeds were meant to be consumed.

Shen Ye’s pupils contracted sharply as the Green Demon Blade released countless piercing lights, forcing the middle-aged man to retreat.

"Impressive sword techniques; let’s continue."

The middle-aged man said with a grin.
