Myriad Realms Gatekeeper

Chapter 1437: Chapter 609: Saint

Good Duck looked at the glowing ladder and suddenly felt a bit regretful.

Straight to the Other Shore?

Why didn’t you say so earlier!

Become the Dream King, and you’ll get a ladder straight to the Other Shore!

If that’s the case, whoever wants to do it can have it! I should have agreed to those Saints’ generous conditions earlier.

——Doing such dangerous things at home, am I asking for trouble or a beating?

“Um, I want to ask, why did the previous Dream Kings make such a ladder?”

Good Duck asked.

The Paper Man sighed and said:

“This was the result of many Master of Laws working together in the past. We can finally go directly to the Other Shore.”

“…So it’s a common dream?” Good Duck asked.

“Yes.”

“Then—’many Master of Laws in the past’ should be Saints, right? Why don’t they step up to help the Dream King?”

“Those Saints who advocated reaching the Other Shore initially won the leadership, but during their exploration, they all died.”

“The high-dimensional ladder at that time was also destroyed – the ladder in front of you is newly forged and is just shy of completion.”

Good Duck fell silent.

Turns out, Saints were divided into two factions before.

One faction advocated exploration, the other advocated non-contact.

The exploration advocates all bit the dust.

——They used their lives to prove just how dangerous the Other Shore truly is!

So——

It’s my turn now?

Great.

You guys are just wonderful.

Only to hear the Paper Man say in a passionate tone:

“The high-dimensional Holy Ladder is about to be forged again. When you become the Dream King, you can use it.”

“——The exploration faction can finally rise again!”

Screw your comeback.

Good Duck sighed and lowered his head, starting to ponder whether he should run away.

The Paper Man seemed to notice his low spirits and continued:

“Don’t worry, you’re not fighting alone.”

“The pioneering Saints left valuable treasures and intelligence while exploring the Other Shore, all hidden on the ladder.”

“Hidden on the ladder?” Good Duck suddenly lifted his head, eyes sparkling.

“Indeed, now I can tell you.”

“The Other Shore is extremely dangerous; nothing can be hidden there. But placing the treasure in the Myriad Realms risks being stolen by the Conservatives – hence, the Saints hid their exploration gains on the ladder.”

The Paper Man continued in a proud tone:

“Take heart, when you become the Dream King, the things left by past Saints will be waiting for you on the ladder.”

The Other Shore’s…

Treasure?

Seems like a bit of motivation.

Good Duck adjusted his mood, lightly cleared his throat, and said:

“There was once a book – you must have read that book called One Piece? Right?”

“What’s that? Haven’t read it!” The Paper Man said, puzzled.

“Haven’t read… alright then,” Good Duck chuckled, “Now please take me to the third trial.”

“Off we go!”

The Paper Man shouted.

Suddenly, Good Duck was teleported away.

In the next second.

He appeared atop a towering altar.

The altar was magnificent and grand, towering into the sky, with stairs and pillars around it engraved with all kinds of mysterious ancient runes.

At the center of the altar was etched a sleeping Two-headed Giant.

The Paper Man teleported from the Void, and spoke:

“The third trial.”

“End of Dreams!”

“At the current moment, there are surely dangerous wars happening in the Myriad Realms.”

“You’ll be teleported in your dream form to the most dangerous battlefield.”

“——Preserve your dream form during the danger, do not let it be destroyed. Wait until the dream ends, and safely teleport back.”

“You’ve passed the test!”

As the words fell.

The statue of the Two-headed Giant twitched.

Its two heads yawned, then closed their eyes, and started to sleep.

All the runes on the entire altar lit up.

The ephemeral mist rose from the ground, enveloping Good Duck.

——The teleport is about to begin!

“How long does the dream last?” Good Duck asked.

“That’s uncertain, depends on how well the dream giant sleeps today.” The Paper Man replied.

Good Duck was speechless.

But then.

There’s one crucial thing to ask.

“If the Saints directly destroy the entire Dream World, wouldn’t everything end?”

“That’s impossible.” The Paper Man said.

“Why?” Good Duck asked.

“The dream giant is not on this plane. When it begins to dream, the Dream World temporarily detaches from the Myriad Realms, existing within a high-dimensional ‘Dream.'”

“——Until the giant wakes up.”

The Paper Man waved his hand.

Good Duck was instantly gone.

Elsewhere.

The first trial.

Within the Yin Yang Fate Dharma Aspect.

Underworld.

A massive continuous light ring fell from the sky.

This is the Technique jointly executed by “Time,” “Death,” and “Eternal Darkness” Triple Laws.

It can fix “Death” at a constant “moment,” and conceal sunlight with “Eternal Darkness.”

This ensured the Saints could reach the underworld.

Shen Ye couldn’t help but clap his hands:

“Good!”

“Worthy of the Saints!”

As he spoke.

He was already preparing to escape.

——After all, facing three Saints.

He couldn’t defeat even one, let alone three?

Yet the other side wasn’t making any moves.

Even the Time Saint hadn’t made a move.

“Clone?”

The Time Saint asked.

“You’ve found me out.” Shen Ye smiled.

“Your strength is improving bit by bit; every time I see you, you’re different from before——”

“It’s clearly a clone.” Time Saint said.

“So what?” Shen Ye asked.

“About thirty of the strongest Saints have already reached the Dream World — besides you, we’ve also come to know the sealed secret,” Grim Reaper said.

“What are you talking about?” Shen Ye feigned ignorance.

“High-dimensional Holy Ladder.” Grim Reaper uttered four words.

——Can’t be hidden anymore.

“What’s the High-dimensional Holy Ladder?” Shen Ye disregarded it, continuing to play dumb.
