Chapter 530: Ancient Treasury

Once Ye Lin's three pieces of good news and five pieces of bad news came out, Student Zhuge Ni immediately put on a mask of pain.

These were clearly eight pieces of bad news! And each one was worse than the last!

"Ye Lin... is this your revenge for my past arrogance and conceit?"

Student Zhuge Ni's eye sockets were red, and tears kept sliding down.

"Don't misunderstand. I'm not such a beastly person. I just think that although you aren't biological, you should still have the right to know!"

Although Ye Lin said this, he couldn't suppress the corners of his mouth at all, and he even couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"Sorry, I thought of something happy. My wife is about to give birth."

"So, I'll be going first. I wish you happiness every day. You must be happy, Ni Ni!"

Ye Lin waved his hand and hurriedly dragged Student Zhuge Yi away, leaving behind Student Zhuge Ni, who was crying her heart out on the spot.

After walking far away, Ye Lin could no longer suppress the smile on his face.

After letting go of Student Zhuge Yi, he threw a flurry of punches at the sky.

"Refreshing!!!"

He had wanted to do this for a long time, but he just never had the opportunity.

Now that he had pulled this off, all the pent-up frustration in his heart had dissipated completely.

He wasn't breaking his promise to Student Zhuge Qianxing either; he had just saved Student Zhuge Ni from the hands of the Demon Emperor.

In Ye Lin's understanding, the five words "protect Student Zhuge Ni" meant that as long as she was alive, it was fine.

"Why do you hate her even more than I do?"

Student Zhuge Yi looked at Ye Lin with a strange expression.

Logically speaking, shouldn't she, the biological daughter whose life had been swapped, hate Student Zhuge Ni more?

"You don't understand! If it weren't for your deadbeat father, she would have been smashed to death by one of my Forbidden Spells long ago."

Slap!

As soon as the words fell, Student Zhuge Yi landed a slap on Ye Lin's face.

"You are not allowed to insult him!"

"Next time for sure!"

Ye Lin took out the Seven-Star Lamp.

"Alright, now that we've arrived at Qingcheng and have someone with the Student Zhuge family bloodline, why hasn't it lit up yet? Was this Seven-Star Lamp made using Boruto?"

"Give it to me."

Student Zhuge Yi cut her palm, and fresh blood gushed out.

She took the Seven-Star Lamp from Ye Lin's hand, and the moment her palm touched the lamp body, all the blood was sucked into it by the Seven-Star Lamp.

In an instant, a faint flame seemed to be ignited by an invisible force, emitting bursts of strange light.

Ye Lin stared fixedly at the lit Seven-Star Lamp. A moment later, the flame burned brighter and brighter.

A wisp of green smoke drifted away in one direction. That green smoke was extremely strange; whether it was blown by the wind or swept away by Ye Lin's hand, it couldn't be affected in the slightest.

The green smoke seemed to have its own destination, drifting quietly in one direction.

"There is something in this direction," Student Zhuge Yi said.

"I know, let's go!"

Ye Lin hoisted Student Zhuge Yi up and chased after the direction the green smoke was drifting.

This chase led them directly out of Qingcheng.

The monsters near Qingcheng had long since been scared away; Ye Lin's previous thunderbolt was enough to scare the monsters out of their wits.

Ye Lin chased the green smoke all the way, but as he chased, he suddenly discovered something wrong.

Because he had walked this road before!

It was just that the last time he walked this road, Guo Qin and Student Zhuge Qianxing were by his side.

"Could it be..."

Ye Lin's breathing became rapid, and he directly activated the Dance of Instantaneousness, using his full speed to chase in the direction of the green smoke.

After passing through the dense forest, there was a valley with white mist.

Ye Lin froze on the spot because inside the valley, at the end of the green smoke, there was a stone gate that reached the sky!

Carved on that stone gate were various patterns such as the sun, moon, stars, mountains, rivers, dragons, phoenixes, and Qilin. It appeared both mysterious and solemn, standing abruptly in the valley.

"Gate of Apocalypse..."

Ye Lin's eyes grew solemn.

He remembered very clearly that after Student Zhuge Qianxing once took him into the Gate of Apocalypse, this gate disappeared directly.

But now, this gate had appeared in front of him again.

Could it be that the ancient treasury referred to in Student Zhuge Qianxing's sixth silk bag was the Gate of Apocalypse in front of him?

But without the Ancient Apocalypse Key, what was the use of finding the Gate of Apocalypse?

Just as Ye Lin was stunned, accompanied by a low and long mechanical sound, the Gate of Apocalypse in front of him slowly opened, revealing the long, narrow passage behind the gate.

The Gate of Apocalypse had actually opened by itself without the Ancient Apocalypse Key!

That passage was incomparably deep and pitch black, with no end in sight.

However, Ye Lin had already walked this passage once before. He didn't hesitate; he just took a deep breath and walked straight in.

In this world, besides the Demon Venerable, there shouldn't be anyone who could pose a threat to him.

The passage behind the gate was the same as when Ye Lin first came; there was nothing there. It wasn't until he reached the end that a modern metal door appeared.

"Behind the Gate of Apocalypse? How could it be like this?" Student Zhuge Yi's double pupils were also filled with shock.

"I don't know, but you better be prepared. Something even more shocking is behind this door."

Ye Lin took Student Zhuge Yi through the metal door, and the two arrived at a ruined version of Qingcheng.

Everywhere was ruins and broken walls; the world was desolate, dust was flying, and there were no signs of any life.

"Mirror world?" Student Zhuge Yi's face was filled with disbelief.

"Maybe, maybe not."

Ye Lin looked at the ruined Qingcheng in front of him and slowly rose into the air.

When he came for the first time, his strength was too weak, and he didn't dare to explore randomly inside.

Since he had the opportunity to enter the Gate of Apocalypse for the second time, he must figure out what was going on inside this Gate of Apocalypse.

His mental power flowed and spread like liquid. With Ye Lin's current mental power, he covered the entire Qingcheng in almost the blink of an eye.

After confirming that there was nothing in this ruined version of Qingcheng, Ye Lin continued to explore forward.

Soon he saw many familiar cities, but these cities were all the same as Qingcheng, without any life, having become a desolate ruin.

He flew for a long distance, and all that appeared were ruins.

Ye Lin even made a trip to the Sang Country, only to find that the situation in the Sang Country was the same; it was all a ruin.

This world was clearly exactly the same as the world they lived in, yet it was full of ruins everywhere.

Ye Lin stayed in the world behind the Gate of Apocalypse for a long time without any discoveries.

"Let's split up."

Student Zhuge Yi suddenly spoke.

"We will each walk in opposite directions. Neither of us should look back. No matter what, this world should have an end, right?"

"That works too!"

Ye Lin nodded.

"You have the mark I left on you. If there is danger, just call me."

After making the decision, Ye Lin sped off alone in the opposite direction to Student Zhuge Yi.

With his current speed, traveling ten thousand miles a day was no exaggeration.

Ye Lin kept walking in one direction, walking until he reached the end of this world.

And when he arrived at the end of the world of the Gate of Apocalypse, Ye Lin froze on the spot.

A bone-chilling coldness shot up his spine to his crown!

Even with Ye Lin's current strength, a look of horror couldn't help but appear in the depths of his eyes.

"How could it be like this? Is this the secret of the Gate of Apocalypse?" ===== CHAPTER 531 =====
