Myriad Realms Gatekeeper

But now, he had a feeling deep within—

They seemed to no longer reject him.

Interesting.

Too interesting!

He had clearly taken a step back, so why had he actually gained their support?

Where was the reason?

"If there's nothing else, I'll go back to cultivate, and from now on, I won't interfere with how you choose to handle missions."

Yun Ni said.

She bowed slightly to the Saintly Honor seated on the high platform, her physique shot into the sky, and she swiftly disappeared.

The Saintly Honor said nothing.

The elders on both sides remained silent as well.

"Ha ha ha ha, good, today the Saintly Honor is presiding over us, we will definitely complete this mission perfectly!"

"Who says no, she thinks that without her, the world would be different."

"This is our chance to prove ourselves!"

"The reward for the mission is ours!"

The five men and women said excitedly.

Elsewhere.

Cloud Rainbow Celestial Honor flew back to her palace, shut the door, and sat cross-legged on the Green Jade Platform.

The day's events had subtly touched her Taoist Heart.

A certain unseen, intangible realm hovered over her mind; it sometimes appeared and sometimes vanished, forming an indescribable bond with her.

—She was actually about to have a breakthrough!

How could it be?

Why...

Cloud Rainbow Celestial Honor steadied her Taoist Heart, went over everything once again, and whispered to herself,

"Hardness must not be upheld long, softness... cannot be preserved; when hardness and softness work together, Yin and Yang are achieved."

Before her voice had faded,

The Dharma Realm quietly emerged.

Petals fell from the sky, Dharma sounds resonated together, auspicious clouds circulated, and wonders appeared one after another.

She had entered the state of a breakthrough!

Cloud Rainbow Celestial Honor quickly made a hand gesture, executed the Barrier Sealing Art, and sealed her entire Taoist Palace.

Now was not the time.

—She couldn't let anyone know she was breaking through!

Cloud Rainbow Celestial Honor silently cultivated her technique, slowly adjusted her entire body's strength, built up momentum, and quietly waited for the moment of breakthrough.

However, in a distant corner of the Ninety-Nine Layer Universe.

On an ice-covered planet.

Cloud Rainbow Celestial Honor's five junior fellow disciples had trapped a woman.

That woman wore a red dress, had platinum blonde hair, eyes as pure as gemstones, and a gentle expression.

"Charlotte, you're going to die."

One person excitedly said.

The five of them had trapped the woman's four servant Divine Beasts—

The Azure Dragon, Baihu/White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, Xuanwu.

It was not easy to accomplish this; they even had to use the Ancient Demon-binding Chains from the Taoist Palace and spent a high price on Immortal Talismans to fully unleash the power of the Demon-binding Chains.

The Divine Beasts were only temporarily trapped.

—They must hurry to take down Charlotte!

"You trap the Divine Beasts; I'll kill her!"

The strongest among the five, a Taoist, shouted.

"Okay!" everyone responded in unison.

The Taoist reached into the void and grabbed a Demon-Subduing Pestle, flying toward Charlotte.

According to the intelligence they received, Charlotte's strongest capability was summoning Divine Beasts; once all the beasts were trapped, she would become passive.

This was the perfect opportunity to kill her!

The Taoist arrived instantly, striking thousands of afterimages with the Demon-Subduing Pestle, shattering the void itself.

Regardless of whether it was Charlotte or anyone else, they would turn to mincemeat under this attack!

Thud—

A muffled sound.

The Taoist was kicked flying out, the Demon-Subduing Pestle crashing to the ground with a clang.

At the same time.

The trapped Divine Beasts suddenly all disappeared.

"What?"

"Senior brother, are you okay?"

"What just happened?"

Several people rushed over to help the Taoist up.

However, the Taoist stared straight at Charlotte, eyes wide and body trembling violently.

"She—"

The Taoist spat out a word but could not continue due to some emotion.

He had attacked thousands of times.

And not a single hit landed on the target!

—What kind of skill, judgment, and response was that!

How could it be—

Wasn't she a Summoner?

Why was her close combat ability so terrifying?

The rest slowly came to their senses and looked at Charlotte together.

They saw her platinum blonde hair turn deep black, her eyes change to green, and her body emitted an indefinable mysterious aura.

"You want to kill Charlotte?"

The woman's tone changed, becoming even colder and more merciless.

At that moment.

Everyone felt an unprecedented chill.

"You... are not Charlotte."

One of the Taoists murmured.

"Charlotte?"

The woman looked at them leisurely, shaking her head,

"Charlotte is longing for her man, she has no time to bother with you petty soldiers."

"To think, meeting me was already your limit— you won't even get the chance to meet Annie, let alone Charlotte."

"Now accept your death."

The woman stepped towards them.

At that moment.

They subconsciously remembered the scene not too long ago.

In that Taoist Palace above the sky.

Their eldest senior sister, Yun Ni, had a look of compassion and softly said,

"I only took on those missions out of concern for our fellow disciples, not wanting them to walk into death."

"If they hold a grudge because of this, it was never my intention."

The words were still echoing.

So the eldest senior sister really had their best interests at heart.

But.

It was too late for regrets.

...

Death Planet.

Breath Soil High School, boys' dormitory.

Shen Ye squatted on the chair, arranging several notebooks seriously on the desk.

The strategy was ready.

He'd notify Big Skeleton to pick them up soon.

It had to sell for a big price.

As for now—

Let the old man, who was a great expert from the Upper Universe, enjoy several bowls of instant noodles.

Shen Ye stretched his sore wrists, stood up again, and re-entered the Dharma Aspect.
