Chapter 1006: Chapter 471: So It Was Her! _3

Small glowing text instantly appeared:

“Confirmed, you have suffered language damage from the opponent.”

“Currently forcing extraction of ‘Extreme Poison’ element from the Extreme Evil Technique Spirit as compensation.”

A ball of green light appeared in front of Shen Ye.

“What did you do!” the centipede roared furiously.

“Nothing, I didn’t do anything. I just arrived here, didn’t even do anything, and then you yelled at me,” Shen Ye said, looking aggrieved, stepping back, and suddenly fell to the ground.

Small glowing text instantly appeared again:

“You activated ‘War Dance Songstress’.”

“‘Blood-sucking Old Man’ advanced one Rank, transforming into ‘Blood-sucking Master’.”

“Your element extraction is no longer limited in number of uses.”

“Confirmed, you’ve suffered damage in the opponent’s territory.”

“This happened because the opponent failed to clean the ground properly. Forcing extraction of ‘Extreme Poison’ element from the opponent as compensation.”

Extract once more.

The green light became even brighter.

“Cursed human, I’ll make you die!” the centipede emitted a shrill scream.

It charged toward Shen Ye.

Once again, glowing small text appeared:

“Confirmed, the opponent issued a death threat.”

“This deeply harmed your delicate heart (as a minor). Forcing extraction of ‘Extreme Poison’ element from the opponent as compensation.”

Extract again.

The green light gleamed like jade, exposed in the void, radiating a stunning toxic brilliance.

At the same time, the centipede swayed.

It appeared to have been drained of too much poison, causing its attack movements to appear weak.

Shen Ye slowly drew out the Night Rain Blade.

Truth Suppression—

The centipede instantly froze in place.

Shen Ye fused the extracted “Extreme Poison” element directly into the Big Skeleton.

—It seemed very interested in this poison.

“Keep sealed properly. Otherwise, I’ll kill you, got it?”

Shen Ye said to the centipede.

The centipede was so suppressed it couldn’t even speak.

A soft chime echoed from the ring.

“You’ve gained recognition from the Master of Multilayered Universe’s belt.”

“The power of the belt has been unsealed.”

“Please continue to unseal other components.”

Shen Ye glanced at his phone.

Time taken: 4 minutes.

Nice!

—Next!

“Gate.”

Shen Ye shouted, directly opening the Gate of Heaven, stepping across it in one stride.

Time flowed slowly.

A quarter of an hour later.

He returned to the Dwarf Demon Palace.

Small glowing text still floated before him:

“Master of Multilayered Universe’s Battle Armor.”

“Activated.”

“Set Attributes:”

“1. Heart of Defense: Wearing battle armor prevents you from performing any offensive actions;”

“2. Invincible Body: Suppresses all attacks, rendering you immune to damage.”

“Truth 12th Rank Armor.”

“—Also a proof of Cosmic Will’s tests.”

Success!

With this set of armor, although offense is impossible, it provides immense self-preservation power.

At this moment.

Shen Ye felt invigorated. He was just about to search for Nangong Sirui and Zhang Xiaoyi, when a figure appeared in front of him.

It was a gorgeous woman dressed in an elegant gown.

—Lan.

She was the current will of this Multilayered Universe!

“Lord Lan.”

Shen Ye greeted her.

Lan looked him up and down, nodded, and said, “Not bad, you didn’t disappoint me.”

Shen Ye froze momentarily but soon understood her meaning.

Since the complete set of armor is “proof of the Multilayered Universe Will’s test”—

Lord Lan’s intention to give equipment to various individuals became clear.

She was testing all living beings.

But for what purpose?

What comes next?

Lan began to speak:

“You carry her aura, which is why I brought out this set of armor as a test.”

“—I didn’t expect you have already reached the Truth layer.”

“Now, there’s no need to delay further. I must tell you the truth.”

“Please go ahead,” Shen Ye replied.

“Among the twenty-one Ultimate Creations in the Multilayered Universe, we aren’t considered strong, but we’ve evolved over countless eras, spanning innumerable epochs.”

Lan said.

We?

Shen Ye felt puzzled but did not ask, focusing on listening.

“We were once an extremely powerful Multilayered Universe within the Truth Void, and most other Ultimate Creations wouldn’t dare provoke us.”

“Until that great cosmic war erupted.”

“Countless Ultimate Creations were destroyed in that war.”

“We nearly perished too.”

“Even though we escaped, we were discovered by the Parasitic Empress hidden in the dark; she took advantage of our weakened state, trying to parasitize us and eventually devour us completely.”

“But she’s still asleep,” Shen Ye said.

“True, because we created the ‘End Star’ in time, gathering hunters from various Ultimate Creations on this planet—some hunters fled from ‘End Star’ and established the Cosmic Council.” Lan said.

“So that’s how the ‘End Star’ came to be,” Shen Ye understood.

“We used the ‘End Star’ to forge a barrier—I was captured by the Parasitic Empress, but if she devoured me, she’d have to face the ‘End Star’.”

“‘End Star’ contains hunters, some of whom are of high rank, trapped by us there.”

“Once I perish, they will be released.”

“Other powerful Ultimate Creations will immediately arrive to devour everything about me and the Parasitic Empress.”

“The Parasitic Empress has always refrained from completely devouring me because of this.”

“Impressive,” Shen Ye exclaimed.

“I’m only halfway through explaining.”

Lan’s beautiful eyes gazed into his, holding profound meaning.

“Please continue—by the way, who controls the other half of the Multilayered Universe separated by the ‘End Star’?” Shen Ye asked.

—By now, he had figured everything out.

Lan and other cosmic wills jointly controlled the entire Multilayered Universe!

That’s why she referred to “we.”
