Myriad Realms Gatekeeper

Red light lit up.
The piercing alarm sound echoed throughout the building.
In the busy office center, a few employees started running, leaving documents scattered on the ground.
But they couldn’t bother with that now.
“Level one alert!”
“Attention, it’s a level one alert!”
“The battle with the King of Nightmare has lasted too long; suggest raising the danger level!”
“The Time Saint has released the time reversal technique!”
“Both incidents are happening simultaneously, requesting approval from the Myriad Realms Survival Council!”
A few people shouted as they charged through the crowded corridor, and pushed open the meeting room door.
Bang—
The door opened.
They were stunned.
The meeting room was filled with VIPs.
Everyone was disguised in human form.
The Saints—
Had long been waiting here.
Sitting in the main seat was a plump old man with gray hair, his face full of kindness and amiability.
“We’ve all approved the Time Saint’s time reversal; now activate all the power of laws and rewind the time of the Myriad Realms to three minutes ago.”
The old man said.
“Yes! Execute immediately!” A staff member ran out.
“The danger level of the King of Nightmare is raised to S-tier.” The old man continued.
Another staff member exclaimed in shock:
“S-tier! Sir, isn’t that—”
“Yes, immediately establish a fictional passage, we need to project over there.”
“Is it to execute final extermination? I’ll prepare immediately!”
“No, now it’s necessary to make contact with him.” The old man’s eyes showed a hint of helplessness:
“If it were other species, extermination wouldn’t matter, as the safety of beings of the Myriad Realms is most important.”
“But—”
“He is human, a human who exists in the Truth World.”
“We must talk things through.”
…
Dream trial.
First round.
Shen Ye suddenly found his position changed.
From the ground to the sky.
—That slash was made from the sky.
Not only that.
The entries above both his head and the Time Saint’s disappeared.
Shen Ye was somewhat surprised.
Impossible.
Even if time flows back, the entries wouldn’t just disappear so easily.
—Time is merely one of the laws.
The entries originate from the Dharma Realm, a power formed by the convergence of countless laws.
So—
Time reversal alone can’t affect the entries.
Unless many laws cooperated in this matter.
“Finding help again?”
Shen Ye deliberately sighed, sneaking a glance at the Time Saint opposite.
This guy is quite proud.
If you provoke him, maybe he won’t think things through so much when attacking.
An attack without proper order is much easier to handle!
Shen Ye raised his blade and readied his defensive stance.
But—
The Time Saint opposite didn’t move.
He merely looked toward the sky and spoke:
“It’s here.”
As he finished speaking.
Countless phantom light images coalesced into form, descending and appearing around Shen Ye.
“Human.”
One of the silhouettes spoke:
“We are the Myriad Realms Survival Council, representing all the Saints within the Myriad Realms.”
Shen Ye looked cautiously at them.
Entity?
No.
They were merely pheromonal messages, condensed into form with light images to facilitate communication with him.
—Just a projected shadow.
“What do you want?”
Shen Ye asked.
“There are certain matters that need to be explained in advance.” The silhouette said.
Shen Ye looked at the Time Saint and then around at the silhouettes, feeling a little puzzled.
—Already at a point of no return, what are you playing now?
The silhouette said:
“Everything can be treated as if it never happened; if you dislike the law of ‘falling,’ we can swap it for another.”
“In any case, with your talents, becoming a Saint is just a matter of time.”
“So just become a Saint directly.”
“—The only condition is that you must never touch the ‘dream’ law, as it’s set for eradication.”
Shen Ye was slightly startled.
“Anything else you want to say?” The silhouette asked.
“Why must the ‘dream’ law be destroyed?” Shen Ye asked.
“Throughout history, many laws have been destroyed, it’s a necessary action.”
“Because as they develop, they expand the Myriad Realms—leading to growth and expansion, finally reaching the Other Shore.”
The silhouette said.
“Other Shore?” Shen Ye repeated.
“Yes— the Other Shore is a place full of unknowns.” The silhouette said.
Shen Ye pondered: “Continuous expansion of the Myriad Realms should be a good thing, you can also venture into the Other Shore, seeking valuable resources.”
“We’ve specifically sent people to investigate the situation in the Other Shore.”
“It’s an extremely terrifying place.”
“If I must describe it, I can give an example:”
“For instance, you— might barely survive before the Time Saint, but if a thousand Time Saints acted simultaneously, they wouldn’t last a minute in the Other Shore.”
Shen Ye’s heart was shocked.
Is it really such a powerful place?
“The Myriad Realms is a gathering of thirty thousand worlds, converging various laws, nurturing thirty thousand creatures.”
“Often, the Myriad Realms births laws aimed specifically at the masses, and these laws grow very rapidly.”
“We must curb them.”
“Otherwise, as they grow, the Myriad Realms grows too, and one day will touch the Other Shore.”
“—Then everything in the Myriad Realms will be destroyed.”
Shen Ye said: “Why should I believe you?”
“There’s absolutely no doubt in this matter— we have ample evidence, which can be provided to you for slow verification.” The silhouette said.
“So, you are doing this to protect the Myriad Realms?” Shen Ye asked.
“Exactly, if the Myriad Realms grows, it will inevitably encounter the Other Shore, marking the moment of destruction for everything.” The silhouette said.
Shen Ye fell into silence.
The silhouette continued:
“The Truth World was peeled from the Other Shore; when it fell, its unleashed power was enough to destroy millions of Myriad Realms.”
