Chapter 399: 301
"Let's go!"
Shen Ye released the motorcycle and called to the two people.
The two men and the dog quickly left.
Along the way,
everyone heightened their vigilance, carefully guarding against the enemy.
But no monsters came to attack them.
They successfully arrived at the food storage depot.
This was a large storage center, with seven or eight high-tech storage warehouses.
The military and war mechs were already guarding it; Kunlun had made arrangements early on, so the arrival of the trio wasn't questioned by anyone.
They began to patrol on their own.
Shen Ye lent the motorcycle to Guo Yunye and Zhang Xiaoyi, letting them circle around the food storage depot.
The two got on the motorcycle, both nervous and excited.
Shen Ye then jumped onto the largest grain warehouse, stood at the highest point, and looked around.
This place had the best view.
A few minutes passed.
Everything was normal.
It was then that Shen Ye spoke,
"Diliya, you said there were other ways."
"Yes," Diliya's voice sounded, "aren't you fighting like your teacher? You possess many strengths, perhaps you could last until the end?"
"I'm not like my teacher—my teacher enjoys fighting, while I prefer to eliminate all dangers so everyone can be happy, and I can read in peace and enjoy a beautiful and youthful life," Shen Ye said.
"So you hope to find another way?"
"Yes, can you tell me?" Shen Ye asked.
"Actually, your world is naturally at a disadvantage because the world's will has already perished."
"While the opposing world's will has cast the Technique of Time Reset."
"So, you must seize back the Technique of the Death Planet!"
"Hah? How do I seize it?" Shen Ye asked.
"That Technique... it's actually in this world, do you remember? The Art of Nightmare specifically designed to combat the king species," Diliya said.
Shen Ye's face turned bitter:
"How could I forget? It drained too much of my strength, and even my teacher and Mo Ga Ru couldn't escape unscathed—hasn't that Technique ended along with the merging of the Nightmare World into the Death Planet?"
"But the strength of the Technique is still there!"
Diliya sped up her speech, "That incredibly powerful Technique strength has been retracted, attributed to the Great Tomb in the deep layers of the earth."
"You have to find that Great Tomb, and take back that Technique's strength from the tomb!"
"Is that possible?" Shen Ye was somewhat uncertain, "And how will retrieving that Technique's strength help? To drain these extraterrestrial enemies dry?"
"Not exactly," Diliya's voice grew even calmer, "The strength of that Technique is enough to create the Nightmare World and is also enough to battle the king species—it is the natural enemy of time!"
"What exactly will happen once I've obtained it?" Shen Ye asked.
"I cannot say, for to speak of it would completely eliminate any hope, such is dictated by its Traits."
"—But I promise that everything can be redeemed if you get that power!"
Diliya urged:
"It's lucky that you have someone like your teacher, who would think of a head-on clash—"
"But the situation is actually terrible!"
"Don't delay any longer! If you're going to do anything, go and find that Technique's strength now!"
Shen Ye closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
Diliya was the "World Master of Blessings of the Myriad Realms, the Holy Angel who saves all spirits."
Moreover, she was trapped in her own Dharma Aspect, her strength restricted.
—Should he trust her this time?
"But why would the Technique's strength be attributed to the Great Tomb?" he asked.
"Because the strength of the Ancient Tomb Guardian God also comes from the Great Tomb—you may not realize how magnificent this tomb is, but you should know, it's the key!" Diliya said.
"Alright, I'll go to the Great Tomb! I just hope I can take back the strength of that Technique!"
Shen Ye immediately decided.
He dialed Zhang Xiaoyi's number.
"Hello."
"What's up?"
"My stomach hurts, you guys go on patrol first."
"No problem, leave it to us!" The voice on the other end was extremely cheerful. Read new chapters at empire
"There are plenty of mechas and the army here, be careful, and if it gets too dangerous, run towards the mechas."
"Okay, don't worry!"
Shen Ye heard Guo Yunye whisper, "He gave me a scare, I thought he was going to take back his motorcycle right now."
Shen Ye was speechless.
The call was hastily ended from the other side.
Alright.
Now he could set off.
Shen Ye took out the "Tomb Guard Soldier" waist badge and channeled his spiritual power into it.
The void instantly swallowed him up.
The next second,
he was standing in the corridor of the first layer of the Great Tomb.
This layer was where the Tomb Guard Soldiers stayed, and it was also the outermost layer of the entire Great Tomb.
"Technique Spirit Sister, you must have heard just now, what should I do next?"
Shen Ye asked.
"You need to elevate your authority to enter the deeper layers, and then there's hope to retrieve the power that's been reclaimed. I've already recommended you, let's begin," the Female Art Spirit said.
Feeling a response in his heart, Shen Ye looked down and saw faint flames emerging on the waist badge, forming small characters:
"Nominated for trial."
In the corridor,
the metal floor panels opened in succession.
One after another, Human Figures rose to the ground, taking up attacking stances.
Shen Ye immediately became alert.
These Human Figures were extremely dangerous; one moment of inattention could lead to a disaster.
"They will patrol the first layer on their own, attacking any living thing they encounter, relentlessly."
The voice of the Female Art Spirit rang out:
"You must find the gate to the next level as quickly as possible."
"Otherwise, more Human Figures will appear."
"—Until they fill the entire first layer!"
"Begin!"
Without any hesitation, Shen Ye dashed out.
The Human Figure closest to him suddenly drew a long blade and slashed towards him.
Shen Ye's heart sank.
Something was wrong!
The blade of the Human Figure was too fast, there was no time to block!
This move was—
Thinking of You.
The Human Figure had executed this Blade Technique!
Shen Ye had no choice but to draw out the Hongying Knife, executing a "Thinking of You" in kind.
