Myriad Realms Gatekeeper

"Little Fish, I just received news that those monsters can reset time, killing them is useless."

"It's okay, Grandpa."

Xiao Mengyu still had her eyes closed, continually sensing the characters on the Sword Stele.

"How can it be okay? Once they figure out your Sword Moves and find a strategy to counter them, how will you fight them next time?" the old man asked.

"If they can be countered, they can be countered without resetting time; if they cannot be countered, no matter how many times time is reset, they cannot be countered," Xiao Mengyu said.

Suddenly, the old man's expression changed, and he stood up abruptly, shouting loudly:

"You've mastered it?"

"With one thought, a myriad of waters and mountains." Xiao Mengyu opened her eyes, still staring at the broken black Sword Stele.

Thought.

What is faster than the thoughts of a person?

And how can one evade where thought travels?

To use thought as a sword is the Guaranteed Hit Sword that nothing in the world can withstand. There's nowhere to hide!

The old man broke into loud laughter, his voice thundering:

"Good! Good! Good! Our Luo family has finally continued the legacy technique, and from now on, we can stand tall among the few great families!"

Nangong Clan.

The manor.

Atop a Solitary Peak.

Nangong Sirui, holding an ancient scroll, was engrossed in his reading.

The phone rang.

Before he could answer, Kunlun's voice came through.

The whole incident was recounted by Kunlun.

The phone was turned off.

Nangong Sirui closed the scroll, pensive.

"Young Master, a group of aliens has come and is attacking the manor. The family head is not here; what should we do?" A worried voice came from behind.

Nangong Sirui chuckled dismissively:

"No matter, go and open the Tian Luo Net, the Ten Directions Ultimate Annihilation of a Myriad Asuras Soul Refining Great Array."

His subordinate hastened to say, "But Young Master, that Array—"

Nangong Sirui cut him off: "That Array can kill any master below the Nine Layers of the Law Realm; just go and open it!"

Another subordinate advised:

"That Array is the Nangong family's last line of defense, it consumes too much to operate. Even with our Nangong family's resources, we can only maintain it for three days and nights. After that, all resources will be exhausted, Young Master!"

"Go open it, it's fine," Nangong Sirui flipped the scroll open again and resumed his careful reading.

A few subordinates exchanged looks, greatly troubled.

Just as they were about to persuade him further, Nangong Sirui spoke again:

"Time will reverse, and when it does, the money will all come back, so we can kill them repeatedly."

Right!

Indeed, this made sense!

The subordinates silently withdrew to activate the Array.

Only Nangong Sirui remained standing on the peak.

In a moment.

He whispered softly, "...this kid can even detect the aliens' secret?"

"It seems I also need to hasten to improve my strength."

On the other side.

Jiangnan Song Mansion.

Song Yinchen sat on the garden wall, munching on snacks while looking outside the wall.

On the ground outside the wall.

Monsters were scattered all over, toppled and twisted.

"No matter how many times you reset, it's useless. Just go back," she sighed.

A monster suddenly jumped up, forming a Spell Seal with both hands.

Song Yinchen glanced at it and formed the same Spell Seal along with it.

In an instant.

Two Meteorites with fierce auras descended from the sky, headed for the two who had cast the spell.

Boom—

The Meteorites collided.

One blew apart upon impact, the other continued its descent.

It slammed into the monster outside the wall.

The upper half of the monster was crushed, its remains trembling on the ground.

Song Yinchen sighed again.

"Your own Technique, yet I, a beginner, use it better than you. You can't blame me for that."

The monsters on the ground fell into silence.

This human girl—

No matter what technique you used against her, she could watch and learn on the fly, then release the same technique.

And she even had a deeper understanding of the techniques.

The power of her techniques was greater.

There was simply no way to beat her in a direct confrontation.

...Such a demon!

Even resetting time was futile.

—No matter what technique you use, she learns it instantly, grasping it more deeply than you, executing it faster than you, and with greater power.

Where could one even reason with that?

It was completely impossible to fight!

Song Yinchen suddenly had a change in expression and took out her phone.

Voices from Kunlun sounded incessantly from the phone.

Listening intently, her face revealed a joyful smile:

"Is that so? Brother Shen Ye has discovered the enemy's secret."

"Truly remarkable!"

...

The Great Tomb.

Shen Ye returned to the first layer of the Great Tomb.

"Why have you come back?"

The female art spirit could not help but ask.

"Because I've thought of a very important question," Shen Ye said.

"What?"

"Just imagine, what if, and I mean what if, those monsters from outer space were like Mo Ga Ru and acquired the identity of the Great Tomb? Wouldn't they start chasing after me?"

"Once their status in the Great Tomb surpasses mine, I would fall into a completely reactive position."

"Moreover, if the Art of Nightmare falls into their hands—"

"Everything will be over."

The female art spirit pondered and said, "This indeed must be guarded against." Find your next read on empire

"Moreover," Shen Ye had become thoroughly serious, "they can reset time, so in exploring the secrets of the Great Tomb, they actually have an advantage over me."

"So, what's the point of you returning to the first layer? Waiting for them?" the female art spirit asked.

"I must clarify—moving from the first layer to the second requires one to 'announce one's candidacy and undertake the trial,' avoiding all the attacks of the human figures and then finding the passageway to the second layer to pass—right?" Shen Ye asked.

"Yes," the female art spirit thought for a moment and replied.

Shen Ye fell into contemplation.

The Time Law was indeed powerful.

But it was not invincible.

For example—

Shen Ye placed his hand on the door leading to the second layer and softly said:

"Let's try."

Glimmering light immediately formed three lines of small characters:

"You have activated gate power:"

"Unique Gateway."

"This gate has been endowed with 'gate' power by you."

Done!

Shen Ye returned to the first layer, walked back along the corridor all the way to his own Tomb Guard Soldier room.

Since he had already passed the test, the human figures in the corridor now stood still.

Shen Ye pressed his hand to the door.

The glimmering light appeared again, gathering into small characters:

"You have activated gate power:"

"Stellar Shift."

"This door has been marked as a teleportation point."

Done!

The door to the second layer was endowed with 'gate' power, while the door of the Tomb Guard Soldier's dormitory had been set up as a 'teleportation point.'

Thus,

Once those monsters enter the 'announce one's candidacy and undertake the trial' phase, needing to dodge the pursuing human figures within the set time, searching for the door to the second layer—

Even if they find the door and enter, they would only be teleported back to the first layer, arriving at this Tomb Guard Soldier's room.

They wouldn't be able to go down.

Seal them off!
