Chapter 766 766 400 The Hard-Fated One

Chapter 766: Chapter 400: The Hard-Fated One! Chapter 766: Chapter 400: The Hard-Fated One! A gloomy and obscure land of unknown name.

Dantai Mingyue gently alighted.

Shen Ye gave her a “shush” gesture and transmitted his voice,

“Wait here, don’t wander off.”

Dantai Mingyue quickly nodded her head.

The next moment.

It was as if the abrupt chirping of insects rang out all around.

Shen Ye disappeared in an instant.

...

Dantai Mingyue stood in place, calming the emotions in her heart, and began to carefully observe her surroundings.

—What place was this?

In the darkness, clouds of fog drifted away with the wind.

Nothing was clear.

The source of laws so powerful it bordered on the berserk; she had drawn only a speck, yet she felt about to break through to the next realm.

No.

This wasn’t the 99th layer of the cosmos, nor was it the Indefinite Layer.

This place was—

Dantai Mingyue formed a Spell Seal with her hands.

A soft glow emanated from her hands, illuminating the surroundings.

The darkness still surrounded her.

Only beneath her feet—

There was a long, narrow path that stretched far into the dark depths, destination unknown.

A path, huh…

Dantai Mingyue squatted down and touched it gently with her hand.

The path was about two meters wide, suspended in mid-air, trembling slightly.

It was neither stone nor metal.

Quite strange.

Suddenly.

A laughter emerged from the emptiness of the dark.

“Who?”

Dantai Mingyue called out tensely.

“Not who,” the voice was ethereal, carrying a fierce banditry, “you shouldn’t touch, when you do, I get ticklish, when I’m ticklish, I can’t help but laugh, and when I feel like laughing, I can’t help but swallow a few planets.”

Touch?

Dantai Mingyue was stunned, then suddenly realized, looking down at the suspended path under her feet.

She suddenly released her Ignition Technique to its maximum.

The vast emptiness lit up.

At that moment.

She saw the truth—

A grotesque insect, nearly a thousand meters in length, lay silently on the cliff of the endless abyss.

And the “path” she was standing on was nothing but a feeler extending from the creature’s forehead.

She was standing on its feeler!

Dantai Mingyue’s face turned pale instantly, her legs went weak, and she almost collapsed.

A king species.

And an exceedingly high-ranking one at that.

—The so-called king species were race among cosmic monsters that could be called kings.

Their strength didn’t need to be elaborated upon; their name said it all!

“Don’t be afraid.”

The voice of the giant insect penetrated through the howling winds of the abyss, a deep sound resonating,

“This is the 170th layer’s Tomb of Nothingness, a godforsaken place—you should know, the higher the layer of the universe, the more likely one is to encounter the unknowable.”

“So, just stay here with me, being a guard is all you need to do.”

“Being a guard… What about him?” Dantai Mingyue asked.

“Your master? He is a genius with an impressive lexicon—he’s off to the core area of the battlefield.” Respect tinged the insect’s voice.

Dantai Mingyue was stunned.

What situation was this?

—From the 150th layer upwards, each layer of the universe was a forbidden zone for life.

The Human Rebel Army Alliance had numerous S-rank missions, all involving exploration of cosmic ruins above the 150th layer.

This was the 170th layer.

Just bringing back any piece of information could possibly match a corresponding mission reward.

Dantai Mingyue struggled to remain calm, directing the light from her hand upward toward the sheer cliff wall.

She saw nothing but mottled white Bone Fragments.

Weathered by time, these fragments remained intact, their surfaces naturally displaying Inheritance Runes of laws.

“Cosmic Behemoth’s Inheritance Runes!”

Dantai Mingyue’s heart pounded uncontrollably.

Only the most powerful cosmic behemoths could thoroughly activate their racial strength, manifesting Inheritance Runes of laws upon their skeletons.

—These Inheritance Runes embodied the Dharma Realm’s power configuration rules.

If humans could record, study, and master these runes, then humanity might even gain access to the skills of a cosmic behemoth!

Priceless treasures!

Nowhere would these not be considered invaluable!

With a flip of her hand, Dantai Mingyue gripped a jade slip and began to earnestly record the runes on the wall.

This was all too insane.

She recorded the runes on the cliff wall as if racing against time, even forgetting to further inquire about Shen Ye.

On the other side.

Still on the 170th layer of the cosmos.

Shen Ye stood atop the towering cliff, overlooking the ten directions of the void.

A carapace floated before him, its surface displaying information about him:

“Baxter Paige, also known as Nangong Wantu.”

“A king species larval form.”

“Currently transformed into human shape, infiltrating the Supreme Tao Palace (information from ‘Saintly Honor’).”

“Matters related to this are as follows:”

“1. The 99th layer of the universe, the Supreme Tao Palace, an entity known as ‘Saintly Honor,’ the Lord of Secrets, submitted a pre-application for a master-servant contract;”

“2. The starry sky of the 149th layer of the universe, an entity known as ‘All Gods,’ the Lord of Secrets, completed a temporary warzone transfer procedure.”

The warzone transfer was marked “completed.”

The master-servant contract was merely “submitted.”

—That naturally meant the warzone transfer took effect first!

“Baxter, why do you remain in human form?”

A majestic voice inquired.

Now knowing it to be All Gods, the Lord of Secrets, Shen Ye replied,

“I am studying the ‘gate’ abilities of humans.”

“Oh? Have you made any progress?” All Gods asked with interest.

“The woman I brought possesses a Netherworld Summon gate power, and a Panda that can summon a resting house—completely safe and provides beneficial effects after resting inside,” Shen Ye shared.

“Seems like you’re doing well in this area,” another voice chimed in.

“The Gate is a vital ability for the future era, and Lexicons are a manifestation of the super-strong Rule Power condensed by the Dharma Realm—you really know what’s important.” Another insect chirp resounded.
