Chapter 371 Destiny and Counter-Destiny


Chapter 371 Destiny and Counter-Destiny
In the darkness.

A card was raised.

"The light shines cleanly."

Xu Xingke recited.

The card turned into bright light and swept in all directions.

Wherever the light passed, all dust and stains disappeared, and there were even a few faint screams.

Until the whole room becomes clean and shiny——

The light gathered from all directions, stayed on the ceiling, and turned into a light-shaped lotus, illuminating the surrounding area.

The three of them looked left and right.

I saw that it was about a few hundred square meters here.

Every wall around is covered with clocks of all sizes, making the sound of "click" and "click" hands.

Xu Xingke clapped his hands.

All sounds suddenly disappeared.

"It is indeed the lounge." Xu Xingke said.

"Teacher, do you know these clocks?" Shen Ye asked.

"In each layer of the universe, the current moment of the most powerful civilization planet and the central city on the planet will form a clock as the time mark of that civilization in the universe."

"These clocks are hung in the lounge to make it easier for everyone to keep track of time." Xu Xingke said.

"It's a bit like the front desk of a hotel." Nangong Sirui said.

Xu Xingke walked to a wall and pointed at a black clock.

Shen Ye and Nangong Sirui went up to take a look and saw a line of small words engraved under the clock: "Indefinite Layer, Death Planet, Yujing City."

The current time on the clock is eleven fifty-six.

Immediately afterwards.

Shen Ye's cell phone alarm clock rang.

Eleven fifty-seven.

"It is indeed our time." Shen Ye found it very interesting.

Following Xu Xingke's slap just now, a huge rune-engraved array slowly appeared on the ground.

The magic circle slowly lit up, releasing soft power.

"The power of the laws of the higher universe is more abundant. I suggest that you all practice here."

Xu Xingke said.

Shen Ye slapped the back of his head and ran back to the stairs.

He opened the door and shouted toward the second floor: "Are you coming?"

"Come on - wait for me to create a substitute to guard the first and second floors!" The statue's voice sounded in the distance.

Shen Ye held the door and waited on the steps.

The statue was seen shaking on the spot, and mud suddenly surged on the ground, condensing into a pair of stone statue legs according to the appearance of the statue.

The stand-in is complete!

The statue ran wildly with excitement and fell several times in the process. Then it came to the steps and climbed up step by step.

The broken sword jumped and followed behind.

As soon as they passed through the door, Shen Ye immediately released the door's ability.

——The two ruins separated by the endless void universe have once again disconnected from each other.

"How long can we rest here?"

Shen Ye asked the statue directly.

"In view of -" the statue panted and hummed: "In view of the special contribution you have made, plus you are the first among the newcomers in this trial, plus my evaluation of you is SSS level, plus The Taishang Forgetfulness, Feathering and Ascension Sutra that you practice is a Taoist Sutra that is in the same line as ours, and I admire you very much——"

"You can rest for 30 hours!"

"In 30 hours, I will come back to arrange your next test!"

Shen Ye looked at the teacher and Nangong Sirui.

"This statue is fine."

Nangong Sirui gave a thumbs up.

"Sensible." Xu Xingke also praised.

Nangong Sirui directly found a place to sit down, closed his eyes, and said: "It's great to have so much time. I seize the time to practice, and I must understand more of the power of the law."

He directly entered the cultivation state.

"Can my friends directly participate in this trial?" Shen Ye asked.

"No! The ruins were activated this time because someone outside spent a lot of mana."

"You can participate in the trial as an official trialist, and they are just your team members who complete the 'Team Collaborative Combat' trial."

The statue said in a helpless tone.

"Okay... But I can't stay long. I have to go back, otherwise there will be suspicion over there." Shen Ye said.

"Indeed, there are not many newcomers staying in the trial. You need to go back outside to prevent people outside from discovering something strange here."

The statue said, kicking the broken sword over and clinking at Shen Ye's feet.

"This is it?" Shen Ye asked.

"Take this - when your next trial starts, it will teleport you to the first and second floors of the ruins. Then you use the door ability to come to the lounge, and I will take you to the third floor." The statue said.

"Okay!" Shen Ye said.

"Why don't you leave that sect? In fact, there is no need to go there again." Nangong Sirui suddenly said.

"No, I have a contract with Yun Ni. If I don't fulfill my part, my end will be miserable." Shen Ye said.

He thought for a while and added: "Besides, there is another person in this sect who also has a Dharma like Yun Ni. If that person goes to deal with our planet again, we can't stand it."

"I have to figure this out."

Xu Xingke nodded and said: "Your consideration is correct, but if it is too dangerous, you must be ready to leave at any time - after all, you have the ability, run away if you can, don't be careless."

"Okay, thank you teacher for your concern."

Shen Ye opened the door and returned to the second floor of the trial from the stairs.

The statue substitute here made a buzzing sound:
"You have completed the newcomer trial, do you want to leave?"

"Leave." Shen Ye said.

There was a flash of light.

He found himself back in the central hall of Taishang Dao Palace.

There were some disciples who had completed the trial standing around.

The Supreme Elder sat on the high platform, eyes slightly closed, motionless, as if asleep.

Everything works fine.

in the crowd.

Shen Ye saw Chu Manshu.

"Wantu!"

She came over and asked kindly: "Why don't you see Sirui?"

"He went back - as soon as my test was over, he was teleported away." Shen Ye said.

Chu Manshu was a little disappointed and whispered: "When will he come again?"

"I will invite him to the sect as a guest in two days. I will call you then." Shen Ye promised.

"Okay, remember to call me." Chu Manshu smiled.

Shen Ye's expression suddenly changed.

In the void, lines of small, dim characters quickly emerged:
"Time has run out today."

"A total of three sealed doors were opened today."

"You released one person as a servant, sealed it twice, and made perfect use of the three opening opportunities."

"This is your third day to open the sealed door, and you are still unscathed."

"Congratulations."

"You gained an entry skill point."

"Currently using this skill point can improve your light blue entry 'Novice on the Road'."

"Do you want to use it now?"

"Use." Shen Ye said.

"Skill points used."

"The current entry has gained an evolutionary effect."

"Congratulations, you got a brand new entry:"

"Rookie of the Year."

"On the destiny side, dark blue entries (excellent level, growth-enabled entries, grant-able entries)."

"Description: You are a future star with a great future. The evidence against you in the past will be completely destroyed."

"Once a day."

"——As a newcomer on the battlefield who trains hard and never has any problems, you begin to win recognition and love."

Shen Ye couldn't understand.

Before the entry evolved, he was a "novice on the road" who could turn a fatal attack into a knock-up.

After evolving, he became the "Best Rookie", but could only destroy negative evidence?
Sorry.

Why can't I understand this evolution?
He simply activated the entry "Best Rookie" and released its power.

Silence.

There was no change at all.

Shen Ye kept talking to Chu Manshu, his eyes scanning the entire hall.

Everything is business as usual.

What's the effect?
——What about the effect of my dark blue entry?
The void opens.

The last few trial disciples also came out of the ruins.

There was excitement on their faces. It seems that the harvest from the trial is also good.

"It's a pity that there are only two trials. It would be great if it could be continued with subsequent trials."

A disciple expressed everyone’s thoughts.

The Supreme Elder opened his eyes and smiled:

"Don't be wishful thinking. If we could continue the subsequent trials, our Taishang Dao Palace would have been promoted to more than a hundred levels of the universe."

Everyone sighed.

The Supreme Elder was about to speak, but saw a ray of fire flying towards him.

It's a messenger!

He took the messenger talisman, listened silently to the words inside, stood up and said:

"You guys wait here for a moment and don't leave. I'll be right back."

"Yes!" everyone responded.

The Supreme Elder disappeared in a flash.

Everyone relaxed.

Chu Manshu took out a talisman and wanted to exchange the communication talisman with Shen Ye.

Shen Ye told her that he didn't have such a thing yet, which surprised Chu Manshu again.

Shen Ye had no choice but to explain to her that he had never been in contact with the cultivation side before.

Only then did Chu Manshu suddenly realize.

She was telling Shen Ye how to use the communication talisman, when suddenly there was a scream not far away.

"stop!"

The two law enforcement monks outside the hall shouted angrily.

Unfortunately, when they rushed in, it was already too late.

No one thought——

Several disciples fought together and chopped off several heads on the spot.

"Aren't you robbing me of my treasures? Hahaha, go to hell! A group of people bullied me!"

A disciple with red eyes laughed wildly.

He was holding a short knife with a black glow in his hand, which was still dripping with blood.

The next moment.

He was pushed to the ground by two law enforcement monks.

"evil creature!"

In mid-air, a majestic voice sounded.

All the disciples immediately stood respectfully, raised their hands and saluted:
"Greetings to the master."

Shen Ye's heart shuddered slightly and he saluted along with everyone else.

I saw two monks standing in mid-air.

The previous Supreme Elder's face turned livid and he shouted angrily: "I've only been away for a moment, and you can't even watch a group of new disciples?"

A black-haired man in a robe stood beside him, with an indifferent expression, looking down at everyone like a god.

——This is the leader.

Several law enforcement monks hurriedly knelt on the ground and reported:

"The weapon in this kid's hand was brought from the ruins. It's weird. It might be a treasure."

treasure?

The Supreme Elder reached out and grabbed it.

The short knife emitting black light immediately left the young man's hand and flew into the hands of the Supreme Elder.

"Master, it is indeed a treasure."

The Supreme Elder said immediately as soon as he got it.

The leader then became interested, reached out to take the short knife, and took a closer look.

"Yes, this knife has the extremely rare ability to deceive the soul, and the soul of the person stabbed by it will be completely shattered and swallowed clean by it..."

"A very poisonous sword, but it can also be considered a precious sword."

The leader fell down, holding the knife, and came to the young man step by step, and asked gently:

"Why did you kill them?"

Everyone looked at the young man.

The young man snorted stubbornly and looked away.

Listening to the introduction of the dagger, Shen Ye felt something strange in his heart, but he looked at the corpses.

one two three.

Three bodies.

The head looks familiar.

...remembered.

In his second trial, the teacher took action and knocked away four Dao Palace disciples.

Three of the Dao Palace disciples disappeared all of a sudden.

The fourth Dao Palace disciple is a monster and was put into the sealed place by himself.

if--

If someone wants to find out the whereabouts of the fourth Dao Palace disciple, they only need to find the three people who were beaten away to know that extremely important thing——

The fourth Dao Palace disciple finally met himself and his teacher.

As long as someone knows this information, they can follow the clues and cause trouble for themselves.

in other words--

These three disciples are witnesses!
They are dead!

Killed by a short knife that can swallow souls! ! !

It is impossible to summon another soul to prove it.

Shen Ye tried his best to restrain the trembling in his heart and keep his expression normal.

But at this moment, for the first time, he deeply felt the invisible and magnificent, great and unknowable law that never appeared but controlled everything - destiny.

Yes, "Rookie of the Year" is an entry on the Destiny side.

Its effect is that "all past evidence against you will be completely destroyed."

As for whether the whole thing is too abrupt and whether it can be seen through——

In the field.

The leader stretched out his hand and lightly touched the boy's head.

"Good boy."

The leader said warmly: "You think you killed three fellow disciples and want to pay for their lives."

"But it's not your fault. They bullied you first and killed your companions. This is not allowed."

"We say that in the ruins, you can defeat your companions, but you cannot insult them, let alone kill them."

"——Child, you are not wrong."

The young man suddenly raised his head and looked at the leader in disbelief.

The leader said: "This short sword is too fierce and cannot be kept in your hands anymore, but I will give you other rewards as compensation."

"As for killing these disciples who violated the sect's rules, I think you are completely innocent."

"What do you think?"

"Thank you, Master. I don't have any objections." The young man said gratefully.

Shen Ye watched this scene silently.

Actually.

The entire hall was burned by the flames of nothingness. Endless souls suffered from the burning and turned into black shadows, wandering back and forth.

Dharma Appearance·The Supreme Life-Binding Soul Refining Palace!
It enveloped the entire central hall, and everything that happened here had already been clearly seen.

But it didn't interfere with what happened here.

One is just a dispute between newcomers and disciples, and if it dies, it will die;
The other is, exposing the existence of the Dharma for such a trivial matter?
So the Dharma image never moved and watched the three people being killed.

——Flawless.

There is nothing missing in the whole thing.

There are no loopholes in character motivations, weapon characteristics, and cause and effect.

No one ever knew the monster's whereabouts.

Fate arrives silently, releasing complete cause and effect in line with human nature in an extremely natural manner, covering Shen Ye's traces and eliminating hidden dangers.

Shen Ye lowered his eyes and no longer watched the leader's performance, the young man's gratitude, and the admiration of everyone.

Until the whole thing ended perfectly.

The Supreme Elder began to award rewards to the new disciples who completed the trial.

The leader stood on the high platform and watched.

Everyone was in awe.

finally--

"Nangong Wantu, successfully completed two trials and was promoted to the seventh level of the Dharma Realm."

"The reward is a cave and three thousand spiritual stones!"

A token and a small storage bag fell in front of Shen Ye.

Shen Ye took it, cupped his hands and said:

"Thank you, elder!"

The Supreme Elder looked at him.

In fact, the reason for opening the ruins this time was because of this guy.

Now that he no longer has to hide behind the scenes, and he also has a spiritual stone in his hand, at least his elders' reputation should be acceptable.

"Do not neglect your cultivation while living a good life. The sect has high hopes for you, do you understand?" Taishang Elder suggested.

"Yes, I will definitely cherish the cave awarded by the sect and practice well!" Shen Ye said.

The Supreme Elder has seen countless people. After looking at him and hearing the words "Cherish the cave that rewards the sect," he knew that this boy really understood the meaning behind it.

"very good."

After the elder finished speaking, he continued to distribute rewards to other disciples.

Chu Manshu was also knowledgeable and immediately came over to see the token in Shen Ye's hand.

Shen Ye handed the token directly to her.

"This is the best cave in Xuanmen... I gave it to you."

Chu Manshu looked at "Jiayi" on the token and said with a somewhat complicated expression.

"What? The best cave? How come it's my turn?" Shen Ye asked.

"How do I know?" Chu Manshu glared at him.

"It seems that I have to work hard to practice and not let down the sect's kindness." Shen Ye said.

——It seems that the Lingshi Mountain Range is really valuable.

Chu Manshu solemnly returned the token to Shen Ye.

"Be careful, that cave used to belong to Senior Sister Xuanmen." She said through a message.

"What? Senior sister?" Shen Ye also sent a message.

"Yes, Senior Sister became possessed and was killed by the Holy Lord himself. Although her mansion has been carefully inspected, it is still a place where possessed people stay all year round. You have to be careful," Chu Manshu said.

"I understand, thank you." Shen Ye said.

It turned out to be Yun Ni’s cave!

Judging from Chu Manshu's worried and alert look, perhaps this kind of cave can be called a "haunted house" for practitioners.

At this time, Shen Ye was no longer a newcomer who didn't understand anything.

He already knows that the most terrifying thing for a practitioner is to become possessed.

For any other type of injury, the elders of the sect can save it.

There is no way to recover from an obsession!

Probably this was one of the reasons why Yun Ni's cave fell into his hands.

On the high platform.

The Supreme Elder continues to award awards.

The head saint stood aside, observing every practitioner below with cold eyes.

Naturally, he saw Chu Manshu and Nangong Wantu standing together.

Although the two of them were communicating, he noticed the guarded and nervous look on Chu Manshu's face, as well as the surprised look on Nangong Wantu's face.

"It's because I'm afraid there's something wrong with the cave."

The leader understood immediately and ignored the two disciples, turning to observe the other newcomers.

Soon.

All rewards have been awarded.

The Supreme Elder said a few more words, then announced the end of this trial and ordered the disciples to return to the cave.

When all the disciples have finished leaving——

The Supreme Elder raised his hands and asked: "Master, have you found anything?"

"Nothing was found...Although problems sometimes occur in the trial place, the soul demon should be able to monitor the entire place and return safely." The leader of the Holy Lord said thoughtfully.

"Did someone kill it?" asked the Supreme Elder.

"It possesses several of my special abilities, and its combat effectiveness is not weak. It should not be killed."

"Is there something wrong with the trial ground?"

"It's also possible. I've seen these disciples just now. Their strength is completely unable to kill the soul demon."

After the Holy Lord finished speaking, he suddenly pulled out the black short knife and looked at it carefully.

"Master, what's wrong with this knife?"

"It's fine...but don't you think what it did to kill the three disciples just now is very reasonable?"

"Three disciples killed their fellow disciples at the ruins. They deserve to die, Master."

"Yeah, it all makes sense."

The leader's eyes narrowed and he continued: "But why does it happen to be this soul-devouring knife?"

"You mean, those three disciples——"

"Maybe they know something but can't say it anymore."

The leader put away his dagger and murmured in a low voice:

"You and I both know what kind of power of rules can achieve this step, so..."

"This matter must be investigated thoroughly."

other side.

Shen Ye returned to Xuanmen Peak and took Peipei with him to live in the cave.

"This is Senior Sister's original cave. I used to make fire and make elixirs and forge iron here."

Peipei led Shen Ye around familiarly.

I have to say that this cave is full of spiritual energy and is located in the most scenic place. It is indeed the best cave in the entire mountain.

"What's this?"

Shen Ye asked, pointing to a disk on the table.

"The array of the cave!"

Pepe jumped forward and patted the disc with his hand.

A spiritual light suddenly lit up on the disk.

"Senior Sister likes silence very much, so she spent a lot of spiritual stones to build a large formation to isolate herself from the outside world."

"So strong?" Shen Ye asked.

"You can feel it." Pepe said, controlling the formation disk and opening the cave formation.

Buzz——

The spiritual energy in the cave poured into the ground one after another.

soon.

No sound could be heard outside.

Even the flames of nothingness in the Supreme Life-Binding Soul Refining Palace disappeared.

A line of dimly lit characters appeared:
"The cave is currently avoiding the Supreme Life-Binding Soul Refining Palace."

Shen Ye was a little surprised.

"Pepe, is this formation strong?" he asked.

"That's right, Senior Sister is a master of formations. She built this formation with all her strength. Even if it is destroyed by someone, she will know the situation immediately." Peipei said.

I see.

Perhaps this array cannot be compared with the Supreme Life-Binding Soul Refining Palace, but it has one characteristic.

It's destroyed and Yun Ni will be notified.

So the Supreme Life-Binding Soul Refining Palace didn’t destroy it!
Perhaps this is the fragile balance and mutual trust between Yun Ni and the leader?

Chen Ye's thoughts were racing, and a strange feeling surged in his heart.

A line of small scarlet words appeared instantly:
"The first seal door is about to be broken!"

What?
The sealed monster is about to break free of the seal!
Chen Ye’s heart tightened and he immediately said:
“Pepe, I have some spiritual stones here. You go and buy all the food and elixirs we need in the near future. What do you need for your own alchemy and weapon refining? Go buy some and buy some new clothes.”

He handed Pepe a small storage bag.

"Thank you, sir!" Pepei beamed with joy.

"Go, I just want to practice for a while."

"yes!"

Pepe is gone.

Shen Ye closed the cave and began to think quickly about how to deal with it.

That line of small scarlet words was still flashing in front of my eyes.

But what can I do?
Even the teacher can't defeat it, and he will immediately take himself and Nangong Sirui to escape as soon as they fight.

...There is no way.

But it cannot be allowed to escape.

If it returns to Taishang Dao Palace and seals it with the door, it will be exposed immediately.

There is no other way!

Shen Ye thought for a few breaths and shouted in a low voice:
"Door!"

A sealed door quietly emerged.

There are still three chances to open the door today!

Shen Ye opened the door without hesitation and launched the "Frenzy of Time" at the same time.

Three seconds of stagnation!

I saw that time in this door had stagnated, and inside was solidified seawater. There was a luminous life form deep in the seawater.

——This is a seal under the sea!

It seems to be quite strong.

Now I have to bite the bullet and give it a try, otherwise there is really no other way!
Chen Ye wrote down the coordinates, dismissed the door, and shouted again:

"Door!"

The prison that sealed the monster suddenly appeared.

He activated the "Frenzy of Time" and opened the door, only to see that the entire prison inside was almost completely destroyed.

The humanoid monster's hands turned into sharp claws, scratching several walls to pieces, and all the runes on the walls were completely ineffective.

It's about to be released!

"It's amazing, much better than Tu Fusheng."

Shen Ye sighed.

He used a basic object-binding spell to catch the motionless monster out of the door.

Almost instantly——

"The Frenzy of Time" starts again!
But this time, it was the monster outside the door.

The door dissolves.

There is one last chance to call the door!
“Door!”

Shen Ye shouted again, opened the ocean seal door, kicked the monster in, and at the same time launched the "Frenzy of Time" towards the door.

Bang!
The door is closed.

The entire process of closing the door and opening the door again, without a single operational error, caused the monster to change the sealing place in a continuous time stasis!

The three opening opportunities have just been used up today!
Chen Ye wiped the sweat from his forehead and felt exhausted.

Tuk-tuk-tuk——

There was a knock on the door.

"Who?" Shen Ye asked in surprise.

He walked out and opened the door.

Only two elders were seen, accompanying the Holy Master, standing outside the door waiting.

"Headmaster, elder!"

Shen Ye said in surprise.

"Don't panic, Lord Holy Lord is just here to see you new disciples." said an elder.

"Yes! Please come in!"

Shen Ye opened the door and extended his hand to guide it.

The leader of the sect stood motionless outside the door, but his eyes passed over Shen Ye and landed on the array plate on the table.

"You know how to use this?"

he asked.
