Power... Space... Domain...
These three words—power, space, domain—aren’t unfamiliar to Evan Chu. But now, seeing all three fuse together on the Spirit Lord, erupting with terrifying force, he actually finds himself trapped like a monkey in a cage? Toyed with like some plaything?
“A space domain like this is truly mysterious. Means like these can’t be created within the Three Realms. In the end, this place is just too low-level.”
“Spirit Lord, is it? Space domain, is it? You say you’re the master here? Hahaha! Every word you say—I don’t believe a single one!
You’re full of nonsense—come down here and fight me one-on-one!”
Evan Chu hates this feeling of helplessness in his heart, hates being seen through and calculated at every turn.
He’s ready to explode—to cut down this damned Spirit Lord!
“Back then, the Shadow Heavenly Dragon schemed everything, igniting civil war within the Dragon Clan and causing infighting during the War of the Gods. You made me and my third brother fall one after another. You orchestrated all of it—whatever your reason, now that I’m here, I’m taking revenge!
Every drop of blood debt—you’ll pay for it. Prepare to die!
What do I have to fear? I, Evan Chu, stand proud over the Three Realms—no one can defeat me, and no one can make me afraid!
Stone Heaven is nothing! You, so-called Lord of All Spirits, are nothing as well!
In that instant, all the unease and fear inside Evan Chu vanished, replaced by a surge of overwhelming fighting spirit and destructive power.
Stellar Power roared through his secondary dantian, wind and thunder laws fused and detonated explosively across the space, while his perfected water and fire laws flooded his eyes—now evolved into the Icefire Divine Eye, its power surpassing anything before!
"Fight me! Come face death!"
Sevenfold Wind-Thunder Cleave—his strongest single-target burst, the move Evan had used countless times, so familiar it was second nature. With a wave, he could end an enemy; in all the Three Realms, fewer than three beings could withstand this strike! And none of those three included Wotan. With Evan’s current power, even Demon Emperor Wotan would be slain in a single blow!
Darkness swallowed the space once more, and this time, the cracks that appeared were far more numerous than those from the Ethereal Divine Shuttle’s earlier barrage. Seeing this, Evan held nothing back—Chaos Arm! Icefire Divine Eye! He unleashed everything in an instant.
Explosions thundered, deafening and earth-shaking—not only did the space struggle to withstand it, even Evan himself was stunned by the force he’d unleashed.
His laws were perfected, and as he grasped more elemental powers, the layered eruption of strength grew ever more terrifying. Only gold and earth elements remained at the eighth layer inside him; if he could push all nine elements to the ninth layer...
Ninefold returns to one, all spirits without illusion! If he could reach that level, the power unleashed would be ten thousand times greater than now!
"Let’s see how you handle this!"
Bang! A section of the domain's barrier finally gave way under the relentless bombardment, shattering into fragments. Evan Chu was overjoyed, hoping to seize the moment and press his attack.
“Your strength is impressive—even within this space domain, it’s enough to give me a headache. If we were outside, you’d be worthy of a duel with me! But here, in my domain, you’re nothing but prey for me to destroy!”
You reckless fool, unleashing such power and damaging my painstakingly crafted space domain! You’ve forced me to expend strength repairing it. You think your divine sword is mighty? Let me show you just how weak it truly is!
The Spirit Lord, enraged, stretched out a colossal dragon claw from the void above—its shadowy form impossible to predict or evade.
Evan Chu recalled how the Ethereal Divine Shuttle had been destroyed earlier; alarm bells rang in his heart. He frantically tried to summon back the Frostbane Divine Sword.
“Too late!”
The dragon claw gripped the Frostbane Divine Sword. Sparks of divine light burst forth—boom! The Frostbane Divine Sword snapped in two!
The sword’s long-present divine radiance vanished in an instant. With a clang, the broken blade crashed to the ground, now nothing but two pieces of scrap metal. Not only was the artifact spirit destroyed, but the sword-god consciousness within was utterly annihilated.
Its divine power was gone, unable to channel even a sliver of strength. Now, it was no different from ordinary scrap—just a bit tougher than the rest.
“I’ll kill you!” Evan Chu watched as the cracks he’d blasted open slowly healed, and the Frostbane Divine Sword—his lifelong companion—lay broken. At that moment, the flames of his rage burned so hot they could reduce any God-Venerable to ashes!
Of the three supreme Frostbane Divine Palace artifacts, two had now been destroyed in mere moments. Evan’s heart ached bitterly; if he ever saw his Master again, how could he possibly explain this?
To say he’d failed to protect the divine artifacts, allowing two of Frostbane Divine Palace’s core treasures to be utterly destroyed—such a crime, he could never bear it!
"Originally, I planned to imprison you for a while—wait until I’ve fully absorbed the Crimson Demon Star’s power, then let you fight me and test my new strength. But since you insist on courting death, I’ll destroy you first, then go challenge Stone Heaven!"
The Spirit Lord’s form was no longer a phantom, nor the Shadow Heavenly Dragon body; he manifested his true self, right in the heart of the space domain!
He appeared as a strikingly handsome man, his aura no weaker than Evan Chu’s—if anything, even stronger. With a flick of his finger, streams of scarlet energy converged, forming a terrifying array that took shape before their eyes.
In that moment, Evan Chu sensed death looming. If that blood-red array disk was completed, his body and soul would be wiped out!
"I won’t let you win! If Stone Heaven must die, so must you!"
Evan Chu transformed into his true Nine-Clawed Primordial Dragon form, unleashing Ninefold Divine-Dragon Metamorphosis—nine golden dragon clones appeared, the Dragon Pearl on his brow blazing with light. His massive golden claws channeled the Chaos Arm’s power in a heaven-shattering strike toward the Spirit Lord.
At the same time, his two dragon eyes gathered all his perfected water and fire laws, every ounce of elemental power within him, and mid-stage God-Emperor-level Chaos Divine Power!
"Useless! All your power, inside my space domain, can’t harm me at all. Idiot—you're the one who’s doomed!"
The blood-red killing wheel finally took shape, beams of bloody light splattering as it drifted inexorably toward Evan Chu. Its speed was languid, but its terrifying aura of annihilation pressed closer and closer, suffocating Evan.
Evan Chu found it hard to breathe; the elemental laws and Chaos Divine Power inside him became nearly impossible to mobilize.
Bang! At last, the blood-wheel struck Evan Chu’s Primordial Dragon body head-on—boom, boom, boom! Explosions erupted as his dragon claws, thick golden scales, dragon horns, and dragon might were blasted apart.
All were blasted by the terrifying blood attack; Evan Chu endured unprecedented agony, unable even to spit blood. Reduced to human form, his abdomen was blasted open—a gaping, bloody hole! His limbs were completely erased, leaving him a half-crippled wreck.
