Chapter 361: Chapter 292 At This Moment

Nightmare World.

Human Territory, underground tunnel.

“Hahaha!”

Shen Ye suddenly burst into raucous laughter.

The lines of the Seal of Fate on his body became incredibly distinct, and the sealed Rune of Descent from the insect race also began to emit a bizarre glow.

“Dead for ten thousand years… still delusionally wishing to kill me…”

“Wishful thinking!”

A low roar.

The blazing light spear instantly crumbled, turning into countless fleeting lines of light that disappeared into the void.

Once the lance vanished, Shen Ye immediately returned to normal.

——Could this technique that spanned ten thousand years have been defeated by the king species?

Shen Ye was shocked and perplexed.

He suddenly found that all the seals and Runes of Descent that had appeared on his body were once again concealed.

Was it over just like that?

Taking advantage of this moment, he opened the door and returned to the “Five Desires” world’s palace.

He looked around.

The Nine Aspects hadn’t come back yet.

This was a good time to give himself a breather.

“Technique Spirit Sister, it actually took direct control of my body just now? But that’s not right, I have a seal on me, and Song Yinchen even reinforced it——”

Shen Ye couldn’t help saying.

The Female Art Spirit’s voice responded:

“It used all its strength. In fact, such a temporary breakthrough could never succeed. It was just to counter that light-formed spear!”

“Could there be any hidden dangers?” Shen Ye asked.

“You won’t have any hidden dangers; it’s the one that will have them.” said the Female Art Spirit.

Only then did Shen Ye relax and reached out to touch the “Jade Terrace”.

He saw that the “Jade Terrace” was not a tablet, but a piece of smoothly polished square-shaped white jade.

That long-lost voice arose from the white jade:

“You’ve finally found me, and you’ve unlocked the entire technique, allowing me to gain strength…”

“I failed to kill the bug.” Shen Ye said regretfully.

——Although he liked the strength of the bugs, they had once annihilated the Disciples of the Chaotic Heaven Sect, wiping out the entire world’s population.

More than power, he wished for it to die.

The Jade Terrace’s voice spoke again:

“You think this technique is finished? No, it is just beginning.”

“In half an hour.”

“It will further draw on the strength of the Nightmare World and launch another attack.”

Shen Ye was taken aback.

My goodness, another attack?

All of his strength had been drained just now, and it hadn’t recovered yet.

If it drained him again later, wouldn’t that just kill him outright?

What should he do?

“Release the Earth Mother’s seal, she can help you avoid such situations and even lift the crisis of the Nightmare World.” the Jade Terrace said again.

“Hey, I heard that you are a Nightmare Weapon, can’t you perform some majestic feat or something?” Shen Ye asked.

“There is absolutely no need for me to exert my power yet; you need to wait—at least until this matter is complete… you will see everything.” the Jade Terrace replied.

Shen Ye shrugged.

This thing was all mysterious and secretive; he didn’t even know if it would be of any use.

The void suddenly opened.

Marchioness Charlotte appeared quietly and spoke rapidly:

“Baxter, something major must have happened in the Nightmare World. You need to hurry back immediately, or Mo Ga Ru might discover there’s a problem at any moment.”

Shen Ye was startled and hesitated, “But my lord, didn’t we agree to not contact Mo Ga Ru for now?”

“Listen, I need you by his side now, to gather information for me,” Charlotte said.

Shen Ye looked at her fierce and anxious expression, and immediately stopped any further questions, replying:

“Yes, my lord.”

Charlotte nodded, took another drink of Catastrophe Source Liquid, and said:

“Come on.”

Shen Ye also drank the Source Liquid and followed her as they left the place.

Nightmare World.

The two appeared near the Marchioness’s castle.

—Although Catastrophe Source Liquid could travel between two worlds, the location was always a bit off.

Shen Ye was about to scale the wall to enter the castle, but Charlotte was already on top of the surrounding wall, looking down at him.

“Go, go to Mo Ga Ru, I’ll contact you if there’s anything,” she said.

“Yes, my lord—and please give me that centaur.”

“Fine.”

A few minutes later.

Karula appeared on the street outside.

She maintained the form of an elf.

Shen Ye walked up to her and said softly:

“Follow me.”

“Okay.”

The two, one after the other, moved through the streets and left the vicinity of the castle.

Charlotte stood atop the wall, her expression becoming grim and deranged, with a killing intent that was almost uncontrollable.

“What exactly have I forgotten?”

She held her head and slowly squatted down:

“Why do I consider Mo Ga Ru my enemy… but my memory is a blank, damn it…”

A chaotic aura rose from her body.

On her back, clusters of heads slowly swelled up, looking as though they would soon take form.

Charlotte could no longer control her shape and stumbled into the wall.

Eternal Night City.

On the street leading to the royal palace.

Shen Ye had not walked far when he was immediately surrounded by a group of undead.

“Lord Baxter! We’ve finally found you!”

“His Highness the Regent summons you!”

Ten minutes later.

Mo Ga Ru sat on the throne, looking at Shen Ye and then at Karula beside him.

His subordinates stood below the throne, arranged in two lines, all scrutinizing Shen Ye.

—So young!!

This newly appointed Guard Commander looked so youthful.

How did he earn Mo Ga Ru’s recognition?

“Damn you, Baxter, I thought you disappeared underground like a slug,” Mo Ga Ru glared at Shen Ye and barked.

“My lord, I have arranged for Prince Norton to come to see you and sent Rosalia to investigate the Tian Luo matter. As for me, I found this centaur—Karula, she’s an attendant of the Earth Mother,” Shen Ye said.

Mo Ga Ru stopped pretending and laughed, tapping his fingers at him.
