Myriad Realms Gatekeeper-Chapter 665 - 371: Destiny and Anti-Destiny!_3

If—

If someone wanted to investigate the whereabouts of the fourth disciple of the Taoist Palace, they only needed to find those three who were sent flying to learn that extremely important detail—

The fourth Taoist Palace disciple had last encountered himself, as well as his mentor.

As long as this information was known, one could follow the trail and come looking for trouble with him.

In other words—

These three disciples were eyewitnesses!

They were dead!

Killed by a short dagger that could devour spirits!!!

It was impossible to summon their souls for corroboration now.

Shen Ye struggled to control the trembling in his heart and maintained a normal expression.

But at this moment, for the first time, he deeply felt that invisible yet grand, great and unknowable, never appearing yet controlling everything—the Laws—

Fate.

Yes, "Top Rookie" was a term on the side of fate.

Its effect was "All past evidence that was unfavorable to you will be completely destroyed."

As to whether the whole affair was too sudden, whether it could be seen through—

In the midst—

The Sect Leader reached out and touched the youth’s head gently.

"Good child."

The Sect Leader said warmly, "You feel that you have killed three fellow disciples and want to atone with your life."

"But it’s not your fault; they bullied you first and even killed your companion, which is absolutely not permitted."

"We said that in the ruins, it’s permissible to defeat a companion, but not to humiliate or kill."

"—Child, you’ve done nothing wrong."

The youth suddenly raised his head, looking at the Sect Leader in disbelief.

The Sect Leader said, "This dagger is too vicious to be left in your hands, but I will give you other rewards as compensation."

"As for the killing of these disciples who have disgraced our rules, I consider you completely innocent."

"What do you think?"

"Thank you, Sect Leader, I have no objections." The youth said gratefully.

Shen Ye watched this scene silently.

In reality—

The entire Central Hall was engulfed in the flames of nothingness, endless spirits being tortured by the fire, turning into shadows, roaming back and forth.

Dharma Aspect·Supreme Binding Life Refining Soul Palace!

It enveloped the entire Central Hall and had long seen everything that happened there.

But it did not interfere with the events here.

First, it was just a squabble among new disciples, death was just death;

Second, expose the existence of the Dharma Aspect for such a trivial matter?

Thus, the Dharma Aspect remained inactive, watching as those three were killed.

—Flawless.

The whole affair was without any omission.

Character motivation, weapon traits, cause and effect, all without gaps.

No one else knew the whereabouts of that monster anymore.

Fate arrived silently, naturally releasing a complete causality fitting human nature, shielding traces for Shen Ye, sweeping away hidden dangers.

Shen Ye lowered his gaze, no longer looking at the Sect Leader’s performance, the youth’s gratitude, or the reverence of the crowd.

Until the whole affair concluded flawlessly.

The Supreme Elder began to issue rewards to the new disciples who had completed the trials.

The Sect Leader stood on the high platform, observing.

Everyone was solemn.

Finally—

"Nangong Wantu, successfully completed two trials, promoted to Law Domain Seventh Layer."

"Awarded with a cave dwelling, three thousand Spirit Stones!"

A Token and a small storage bag landed in front of Shen Ye.

Shen Ye accepted them, cupping his fist, said:

"Thank you, Elder!"

The Supreme Elder looked at him.

In reality, this opening of the ruins was triggered by this youngster.

Now he didn’t have to cover his tracks, and with Spirit Stones in hand, at least he should be able to save face with his elders.

"Cultivate diligently, do not slack off, the Sect has high hopes for you, do you understand?" the Supreme Elder advised.

"Yes, I will definitely treasure the cave dwelling awarded by the Sect and cultivate diligently!" Shen Ye said.

The Supreme Elder, experienced in judging people, took one look at him, and hearing the words "treasure the cave dwelling awarded by the Sect," knew this youngster truly understood the implications.

"Very well."

The Elder finished speaking and continued to distribute rewards to the other disciples.

Chu Manshu was savvy and immediately came over, wanting to see the Token in Shen Ye’s hand.

Shen Ye handed the Token directly to her.

"This is one of the best cave dwellings in the Mysterious Gate... to think it was given to you."

Chu Manshu looked at the "Grade A1" on the Token, her expression somewhat complex.

"What? The best cave dwelling? How could it be my turn?" Shen Ye asked.

"How should I know," Chu Manshu gave him a glare.

"It seems I need to diligently cultivate, not to disappoint the Sect’s kindness." Shen Ye said.

—It appeared that the Spirit Stone Mountain Range was indeed valuable.

Chu Manshu solemnly returned the Token to Shen Ye.

"Be careful, that cave dwelling previously belonged to the eldest disciple of the Mysterious Gate," she transmitted her voice.

"What? The eldest disciple?" Shen Ye transmitted back.

"Yes, the eldest disciple succumbed to demonic possession and was personally exterminated by Saintly Honor. Although her residence was thoroughly inspected, it is still a place where someone who succumbed to demonic possession lived for years, you need to be careful," Chu Manshu said.

"Understood, thank you," Shen Ye said.

It was Yun Ni’s cave dwelling!

Seeing Chu Manshu’s worried and vigilant demeanor, perhaps such a dwelling was considered a "haunted house" to cultivators.

By this time, Shen Ye was no longer the novice who understood nothing.

He now knew that for cultivators, the most terrifying thing was succumbing to demonic possession.

All other types of injuries, the Elders of the Sect could heal.

But demonic possession cannot be cured!

Perhaps this was also one of the reasons why Yun Ni’s cave dwelling fell into his own hands.

On the high platform—

The Supreme Elder continued to issue rewards.

The Sect Master Saint stood to one side, watching every cultivator below with a cold eye.

He naturally saw Chu Manshu standing with Nangong Wantu.

Though the two were whispering, Chu Manshu’s expression of caution and tension, and the shock on Nangong Wantu’s face, did not escape his observation.
