Chapter 389.1: What Myriad Principle Gate? Isn't That Just My Underworld Palace's Front Door?

Great Wisdom said, "Although it can indeed destroy the marks, finding the Myriad Principle Gate is the difficult part. It is a powerful artifact that countless Yang Spirits have coveted."

Even someone as sharp as Great Wisdom had no clue where to begin searching, further confirming to Qi Yuan just how difficult it was to find.

Qi Yuan frowned deeply. The Myriad Principle Gate was almost certainly the Myriad Phenomena Gate he had encountered in the Flowing Wind World. When he first saw the Myriad Phenomena Gate, he had seen hidden information.

It can be any door.

Perhaps, the Myriad Principle Gate was simply another role the Myriad Phenomena Gate had been playing.

Qi Yuan mused, "I've seen it before in a game. "

Great Wisdom blinked. "A game?"

Qi Yuan remembered clearly how that game had ended. "If I went back into that game, do you think it would have respawned as a game item? Actually, it might still be there!"

The Slate of Fate deceived Bai Ze, while the Great Sun Golden Lotus obliterated everything. Furthermore, the Great Sun Golden Lotus was a relic left behind upon the nirvana of the Great Sun Bright Buddha, a Yang Spirit. The moment it began to burn, the entire Flowing Wind World was bound to be reduced to ash.

In the end, Qi Yuan had swallowed the Great Sun Golden Lotus himself. Then, he used the game’s reward to forge the Myriad Phenomena Key and opened the Myriad Phenomena Gate. Afterward, he departed the Flowing Wind World with Canary, crossing into an unknown cosmos.

Great Wisdom stroked his chin thoughtfully. "Can game items actually be real?"

"Maybe. I mean, why not? Isn't the real world itself a massive game? Our entire world might just be one giant gaming jade! If we can play a gaming jade, who's to say we aren't living inside an even bigger one?"

Great Wisdom clutched his own head. "Stop, stop... I feel my brain trying to escape my skull."

By "escape his skull," he meant burst clean through the bone.

Qi Yuan agreed, "You're right. People with exceptional intelligence like us cannot afford to think too deeply. The human carbon-based body simply cannot handle it."

It was the same on the Blue Planet. The moment anyone started seriously thinking about the cosmos, galaxies, and black holes, it felt like their brain was trying to crawl out of their skull.

Great Wisdom pressed, "Can you even return to that game? Once you find that gate, can you actually control it? Legend says it has appeared many times across countless ages, but not a single Yang Spirit has ever managed to claim it. Some say that whoever obtains the Myriad Principle Gate could become the supreme leader of the upper world."

Every Principle Yang Spirit would leave an imprint of their comprehended principle upon the gate. If someone obtained the Myriad Principle Gate, wouldn't they be able to contemplate and comprehend the principle paths of every Yang Spirit who had ever lived?

Hence, to the Yang Spirits, not even the most extraordinary artifacts could compare to the Myriad Principle Gate. They desperately sought it for themselves. Even if they couldn't get it, they'd rather destroy it. After all, should it ever fall into the hands of another Yang Spirit, the consequences would be catastrophic.

Qi Yuan paused. "Myriad Principle Gate? Isn't that just my underworld's front door?"

He was becoming more and more convinced that he was a genius among geniuses. Randomly, he recalled how when women lived together, their monthly cycles would sync up. Similarly, Great Wisdom's brilliant mind had a contagious effect, allowing Qi Yuan’s thoughts to flow freely.

How perfectly timed too. The underworld palace had no door yet. Didn’t the Myriad Phenomena Gate say it could be any door? Why couldn't it be his underworld palace’s front door? All he had to do was designate it as one and scatter some Violet Qi over it. Then, Yang Spirits would come swarming like fish crossing a river.

And if he ever wanted to ambush an enemy, the simplest move was just to set the Myriad Principle Gate by their doorstep. The Yang Spirit would see it as a windfall and come charging into his underworld palace. He could even reroute the Myriad Principle Gate's destination to the universe where his stars resided, then rain down all his Star Golden Cores at once. How entertaining!

Great Wisdom broke his reverie. "Ahem, aren't you getting a bit carried away?"

It was the first time he had genuinely doubted Qi Yuan's intelligence. What exactly did Qi Yuan think the Myriad Principle Gate was? But then something struck him. "You actually have a point. As long as you can catch it, it can be whatever door you say it is. The real problem is, how do you catch it?"

The Myriad Principle Gate had even appeared in the upper world many times. The upper world was home to multiple elites, but not a single one had ever managed to capture it.

Qi Yuan said with complete earnestness, "Why catch it? It's already mine."

Wasn't possessing the Myriad Phenomena Key proof enough? 𝑓𝑟ℯℴ𝓂

He added in such a sincere tone that he almost convinced himself, "Well, it has always been my home. It just got a little restless and ran away."

Great Wisdom stared at him with a look of deep suspicion. "Is it actually your door?"

Qi Yuan nodded. "Yes."

"When can I come visit?"

He seemed slightly awkward. "My place is still under renovation. Give it some time."

His home was always open because the door had gone missing.
