Chapter 1051: Chapter 485: Brother Ye, I Can Still Hold On!_3

An anomaly suddenly occurred—

In the void, countless phantoms appeared around Shen Ye.

These were the souls living in the virtual world.

Now, they resided in biochips, using the power of the chips to virtualize a physical form, allowing the souls to temporarily inhabit them.

Layer upon layer of souls gathered together, encircling Shen Ye in an instant, constructing a tall and majestic altar city.

All the souls knelt below the altar city, chanting a spell in unison.

Shen Ye was just about to ask something when his heart suddenly thudded, filling him with an indescribable mixture of serenity and tension.

Something was coming!

Instinctively, he looked up—

From the depths of the sky, a small, glowing entity descended slowly, hovering in front of him.

Shen Ye observed the faintly writhing, glowing entity, his mouth gradually widening uncontrollably.

—It was a small mass of brain tissue.

It was actually a brain!

Wait.

Hold on.

If the Eternal Brain was truly dead, how could it orchestrate such a “hidden profession mission”?

It was just a brain in a vat, under someone’s control.

How could—

It foresee the Demons’ attack and use another spaceship as a decoy to help him avoid danger?

—It was still alive!

Even if it was just this small mass of brain tissue…

Shen Ye reached out and caught the soft, pinkish brain.

In the next moment.

The brain disappeared.

In his hand was now a chip.

Glowing text floated to the surface:

“At the moment of its demise, the Eternal Brain converted the last remaining part of its living brain tissue into informational data, stored within this chip.”

“Congratulations.”

“You have obtained the ‘Last Eternal Life Chip’!”

In an instant.

All the surrounding souls vanished without a trace.

The altar city became an illusion.

Only Shen Ye still remained, sitting on the sofa.

It was as though nothing had ever happened.

And yet.

In his hand, there truly was a faintly glowing chip.

The chip wasn’t metallic; it resembled a block of ice.

The ice gradually melted.

It sank into Shen Ye’s palm.

A vast and imposing voice echoed in Shen Ye’s ears:

“I am dead.”

“—My death was so abrupt that although the enemy could resurrect my entire brain, they could never uncover the secrets and treasures I had cherished.”

“Because at the moment of my death, I had already erased them from my memory and uploaded them into this chip.”

“To you, who comes after.”

“Seek out all that I have buried.”

“With this final Eternal Life Chip, you are now the new Eternal Brain!”

The magnitude of the message was staggering.

Shen Ye even stood up from the sofa reflexively.

…

Meanwhile.

In the multiverse.

On Death Planet, at Breath Soil High School.

Inside the gymnasium.

Guo Yunye was sweating profusely as he practiced his fist technique.

“Yun Ye.”

A voice called out from afar.

Guo Yunye froze, then was overjoyed.

“Brother Ye, you’re finally back!”

In a few quick steps, he leapt onto the stands, standing before the young Shen Ye.

“How have things been? Is everything normal?” Shen Ye asked.

“Kunlun has stepped in to maintain social order; food production is secure. Nothing much has happened here, but it’s been a little lonely,” Guo Yunye replied.

“Not bad; you’ve reached Law Domain Seventh Layer,” Shen Ye remarked as he sized him up.

“It’s all thanks to the fast training manual you gave me, Brother Ye. I’ve been improving quickly,” Guo Yunye said excitedly.

“Is that so? Want to spar a bit?” Shen Ye grinned.

“I’d love for Brother Ye to guide me!” Guo Yunye said earnestly.

The two moved to the center of the gymnasium.

Guo Yunye struck first.

He stepped forward quickly, aiming punches at Shen Ye’s face.

With Shen Ye’s all-attributes at a staggering 500 points, he could easily dodge without being hit, but to help train Guo Yunye, he chose to lightly block the attacks instead.

Guo Yunye threw seven or eight punches, all effortlessly deflected by Shen Ye, making him a bit anxious.

“Watch out, Brother Ye!”

He shouted and suddenly transformed into a towering, two-meter-tall wolf cloaked in blazing flames, breathing fire at Shen Ye.

Shen Ye dodged, casually hooking a strand of flame with his finger, twirling it absently to feel its heat.

This power…

Had reached the Law Domain Eighth Layer level.

Impressive.

Guo Yunye’s ability to turn into a wolf was something Shen Ye knew.

But he had never seen the wolf possess such power before.

“Brother Ye, are you okay?”

The two-meter wolf spoke in human words.

“I’m fine. What’s this move called?” Shen Ye asked.

“I just learned it recently. I plan to call it ‘Inuyasha.'”

“Why call it that?”

“Nangong Sirui can transform into a Yaksha. I’ve always been envious—I want one too.”

“…I suggest you pick another name.”

“Brother Ye doesn’t think it sounds good?”

“No, it’s too expensive.”

“Alright then, what name does Brother Ye think fits?”

Shen Ye fell into thought.

Perhaps Guo Yunye could be sent to help on the other side.

That way.

His profession was Taoist.

Summoned by him, capable of transforming into a fire-breathing giant wolf.

How about calling it Summoned Divine Beast?

Doesn’t sound great.

Then… Wolverine?

Even more expensive.

Shen Ye pondered hard, then suddenly smacked his forehead and said:

“Let’s call it Wolf God Transformation!”

“Perfect!” Guo Yunye’s eyes lit up, giving a thumbs-up.

“Anything else you’ve got?” Shen Ye asked.

“I can now transform into various types of canines, but they’re not very powerful yet. I’ll need to grow further,” Guo Yunye replied.

In an instant, he morphed into a Pekingese, then a Teddy, then a Golden Retriever, and finally a regular mongrel.

Shen Ye fell silent in contemplation.

Sending Guo Yunye to the other world would have natural advantages.

First, his strength wasn’t overwhelming, so he wouldn’t become a massive threat value in battles.

Second, if Shen Ye intervened, Guo Yunye could instantly divert a lot of attention.

Third, he could disguise as a pet dog, solving identity issues and avoiding suspicion.

It’s decided!

“Yun Ye, I need manpower on my side… Can you help me out?” Shen Ye asked.

“What do you need me to do?” Guo Yunye asked.

“Battle—an epic, world-altering battle, one that will decide the fate of humanity!” Shen Ye said solemnly.

Guo Yunye’s face lit up with awe, his excitement turning his face red:

“Of course I’m willing, Brother Ye! I’ve always felt too weak to keep up with you all. I’ve been longing to join such grand events!”

“Good,” Shen Ye patted his shoulder, “Start by transforming into a Chihuahua.”

“…Aren’t we fighting?” Guo Yunye hesitated.

“Chihuahuas are adorable. They can lull enemies into carelessness,” Shen Ye said seriously.

“Ah, I see. Alright!”

Poof.

Guo Yunye turned into a Chihuahua.

Shen Ye picked him up and said, “We’re about to join a great battle that spans two voids. Are you ready?”

The Chihuahua wagged its tiny body, nodding enthusiastically.

“Good, then let’s go, to another version of myself.”

Shen Ye opened a door and tossed the Chihuahua through.

On the other side of the door.

A pair of hands immediately caught the Chihuahua.

Shen Ye!

Shen Ye came out of the restroom, holding the Chihuahua, placing it on a table, and pushing a few pieces of beef in front of it.

“Eat first, then work,” Shen Ye said.

The Chihuahua looked slightly confused.

It scanned its surroundings, realizing it was in a restaurant.

The clock on the wall pointed to seven.

Outside, it was pitch black.

—Dinner time?

What about the battle?

The epic, world-altering battle?

It looked at Shen Ye in confusion.

Shen Ye transmitted a message: “You’ll face various trials first, and then the battle.”

Trials.

What nonsense.

I am a born warrior who trained arduously for the battlefield, dreaming every waking moment of fighting for humanity’s survival.

—And I still need to pass trials?

“Brother Ye, you underestimate me!”

The Chihuahua, a bit annoyed, transmitted its thoughts but suddenly found itself being picked up by a pair of soft, fragrant hands.

The hands were delicate and pale.

“I didn’t expect you to have such a cute little dog. You must be very caring.” A gentle female voice spoke.

The Chihuahua, utterly baffled, was lifted into a warm, soft embrace.

It looked up.

A goddess.

A beautiful young woman.

—The kind of young woman who only appears in men’s dreams!

Shen Ye’s voice followed:

“I’m just raising a dog, nothing extraordinary.”

“Oh, stop it. Just this morning, you donated a million dollars. Is that not caring?” The girl pretended to scold.

She held the Chihuahua against her chest, petting it gently.

Shen Ye glanced over at the Chihuahua.

The Chihuahua slumped against the girl’s chest, throwing him a resolute look:

“Brother Ye, don’t worry. I can handle this trial!”
