Myriad Realms Gatekeeper

In the Immortal Country, Shen Ye stood on a stele, vigorously waving the Phoenix King's Fan, and shouted loudly, "Can you repeat what you heard?" With a flick of the fan, a dense array of characters emerged from the void, instantly enveloping the White Bone Palace situated atop the mountain range. A line of faint glowing characters appeared: "A fan breaks the defense!" An endless barrage swiftly unfolded, like a meteor shower continuously piercing through the entire White Bone Palace. The barrage flickered ceaselessly! At the same time, voices began to resound, reading out each line of the barrage, "Dead already, yet still being used." "Not even a backbone." "Used by monsters as clothing, is it to act pitifully?" "Such a pitiful chap, with such strength, still trying to meddle with the Heaven Connecting Technique." "Where is the dignity of the strong?" "Shameless!" Skulls that emerged from the White Bone Palace listened silently, then, very reluctantly, began to speak. —Under the effect of the Whispers of the Dark, they were forced to repeat the words from the barrage. This was truly torment and destruction of the soul! The entire White Bone Palace trembled incessantly, cracks appearing everywhere. Ssshhh— Skeletal dust fluttered down. Several claws stretched out from beneath the White Bone Palace, climbing along the mountain range quickly but unable to escape the swath of the barrage. The numerous skulls' self-deprecatory remarks plunged the palace into extreme agitation. "Old rooster, I'm about to fan a second time!" Shen Ye shouted loudly. "You fan! I'm ready!" replied the voice of the Benevolent God Rooster from the fan. Shen Ye lifted the fan and fiercely fanned it towards the White Bone Palace! A line of faint glowing characters suddenly popped out: "A second fan harms the body!" The barrage that pierced through the whole White Bone Palace gradually dissipated. However, screams of extreme pain erupted. The White Bone Palace attempted to transform several times into a huge monster, but was interrupted by the successive screams. After witnessing the barrage and voices, coupled with the repetition by the Whispers of the Dark, the skeletons gradually descended into madness. They each stretched out their arms, forcefully pounding their own battered bodies, or using their heads to desperately slam into walls, not stopping even when their skulls shattered. Those skeletons possessing mana, recited Spells, attacking themselves. Boom boom boom— Countless shattered skeletons crumbled from the White Bone Palace, rolling down the cliffside and stirring up clouds of dust. The White Bone Palace could no longer maintain its form! Looking in that direction again, one could see what was deemed to be the White Bone Palace was actually a huge lizard covered in spikes! The lizard suddenly turned its head, a pair of cold eyes fixing on Shen Ye. Shen Ye had a bad feeling and immediately exclaimed, "Old man!" "Alright, leave it to me!" An aged voice sounded from the Seal Gate. Following that— The Seal Gate was directly smashed, a shadow darted out, exploding in midair with a wave of power that suppressed everything. Shen Ye also made his move concurrently. "Tide of Time." He silently recited in his mind. In the air, the shadow suddenly fell into a temporal standstill. This pause revealed its intact appearance. It was the old man that was sealed. Unexpectedly— In his hand was a curved iron lance, about ten meters long, twisted like a snake. —Watching the old man's posture, although the lance was seemingly thrust forward, the tip of the lance was supple as a thread, turning back to pierce at Shen Ye. If not for the pause of time, Shen Ye couldn't have seen this move clearly. Nice. Very impressive. Planning to kill me during this chance, completely break the seal, and regain freedom in our world. Right? Shen Ye activated the "Tide of Time" again, keeping the old man fixed in midair, then— He took a few running steps, leaped high, and fiercely kicked the old man. The old man was kicked down instantly, crashing into the ground of the safe zone, landing face first. At this moment, the giant lizard moved. It opened its mouth, aiming at the safe zone, seemingly about to spew something. Without hesitation, Shen Ye continued to activate the "Tide of Time," then positioned the old man in front of him. The old man was still immobilized. Shen Ye looked up at his own status. "Newcomer on the journey" firmly fixed above his head, motionless. Alright. Come on— "Come and kill me!" Shen Ye roared. He activated the Guanghan Bow, instantly launching "Star Peak," shooting out Taiyin Arrows. Each arrow drew an arc in midair, fiercely piercing towards the lizard. The lizard glanced disdainfully, opened its mouth, and spewed out a light ball, swiftly sweeping across the sky, heading straight for the two. In the blink of an eye— Boom!!! The light ball struck the old man, sending him flying, hitting hard against a stele, spitting out blood. Shen Ye again activated the "Tide of Time," reached out a hand, and again summoned the immobilized old man over, using him as a shield. The Guanghan Bow continued to shoot arrow after arrow. The Nether Spirit Master's Skills activated. Quietly, ghost deities emerged in the void, rushing towards the lizard. The lizard took a deep breath and sprayed a terrifying beam of light at Shen Ye and the old man. This beam killed all the ghost deities along its path and quickly swept towards the safe zone. Shen Ye's eyelids twitched. This beam was stronger than before, and a single hit could mean the end of his life! —Encounter at the Jade Terrace Under the Moon! He disappeared from the Dharma Aspect for a second. The beam struck the old man, sending him flying far into the dark torrents. In a flash, Shen Ye reappeared, slightly frowning. The arrows had caused minimal damage to the giant lizard. But, being a Nether Spirit Master had a benefit, the more he fought, the stronger he got.
