I became a god through frontier slaughter, and I crushed the academy's prodigies!

Hearing their statements, Shen Tian nodded in satisfaction.

He unleashed his domain, leading the group into the air and distorting space once more.

Speechless all the way.

In the blink of an eye, the three of them had traversed a distance of tens of thousands of kilometers.

Shen Tian stopped in front of a continuous, gray mountain range.

This mountain range was lifeless, without even a trace of life.

Deep within the mountains, a dilapidated hall, half-hidden within the mountainside, came into Shen Tian's view.

Although most of the main hall had already collapsed, it was perfectly suited as a temporary retreat.

"Let's do it here."

Shen Tian landed in front of the ruins of the main hall.

Luo Shui didn't say much, and immediately stepped forward.

She took out several light blue array flags from her spatial ring and twirled them with both hands.

The battle flags transformed into streams of light and disappeared into the void surrounding the main hall.

A light blue barrier rippled outwards like waves, enveloping the entire hall.

This is an array that conceals the secrets of heaven and isolates one's aura, thus minimizing the chances of being detected by void monsters.

Xiao Ting stood guard at the palace gate like a dutiful security guard.

He patted his chest and assured them.

"Even if the King of Heaven himself came, he'd have to step over my dead body!"

"But I think no one would be foolish enough to cause you trouble."

Shen Tian chuckled lightly, without saying a word.

He turned and walked into the depths of the main hall.

The interior of the main hall was dimly lit, and thick dust and collapsed stone pillars were everywhere.

Shen Tian found a relatively flat bronze altar and sat down cross-legged.

With eyes closed, my mind instantly sank into my body.

Above the sky, thick, leaden blood clouds churned violently.

Dark red lightning bolts of destruction writhed wildly deep within the clouds, striking down with a deafening roar as if the heavens and earth were being cleaved apart.

The three late-stage ninth-order void origins, plus more than a dozen eighth-order origins, contain an enormous amount of energy.

Rumbling--

It was like a thunderclap.

That was the loud noise made as the spatial barrier continued to push outward.

The dark red earth seemed to come alive, its crust cracking and reforming, stretching wildly into the endless void.

One million kilometers, one million two hundred thousand kilometers, one million four hundred thousand kilometers!

The expansion was unstoppable. The primordial energy was like an invisible giant blade that cleaved through the chaos that represented disorder, forcibly creating a world.

The expansion only slowed down as the void turbulence subsided, reaching a scale of 1.5 million kilometers at the edge of the world.

One and a half million kilometers—this volume far exceeds the carrying capacity of a typical intermediate plane.

Its land area alone is enough to accommodate thousands of secular dynasties.

The enormous star hanging in the very center of the sky increased in size once again.

Its surface no longer burns with ordinary light and heat, but with extreme tribulation flames interwoven with black and red.

A massive corona condensed in layers around the star, casting a heavy and intensely destructive glow upon the entire world.

The red light of rules that had previously flowed in, along with the inverted sea of ​​blood, was carrying out a profound transformation of the rules of this land.

Crimson raindrops were falling from the sky.

The raindrops pounded on the earth, but instead of splashing, they made a series of sharp, clanging sounds, like countless weapons clashing, echoing across the plains.

Below, a continuous mountain range rises abruptly from the ground.

These mountains have completely abandoned the structure of earth, wood, and rock, and their entire bodies present a dark golden metallic texture.

When the red light of the array was absorbed earlier, the terrain here had already begun to evolve into the shape of inverted swords.

At this moment, under the continuous nourishment of massive amounts of primordial energy and rule-based red rain, these colossal "weapons" are undergoing self-repair.

The main peak, which is seven thousand meters high, was originally shaped like a heavy sword that had been cut in half.

At this moment, under the scouring of the red rain, countless dark red chains of law order extend from the fractured cross-section.

These chains of order intertwine, hammer, and melt together, reconstructing the shape of the mountain.

In just a few breaths, the damaged greatsword was completely repaired, and the blade, which was a thousand meters wide, once again gleamed with a chilling light.

To the east. A stone forest stretching for hundreds of miles, which was originally a row of ancient halberds full of gaps.

As the rain washed over it, the thick, ominous rust on the halberd peeled away piece by piece, revealing the jet-black heavy metal shaft and the gleaming, menacing crescent-shaped blade beneath.

They tower into the clouds, like the imperial guards of an ancient celestial court, exuding a chilling aura.

To the north, in the Grand Canyon, broken bronze shields arch out from the earth's crust, piecing themselves together to form a defensive Great Wall stretching for tens of thousands of miles.

The city walls are carved with ancient totems depicting our ancestors' conquest of the stars, and under the illumination of the calamity flames, those totems seem to come alive.

The west.

The vast Dark Sea boiled over.

The seawater transformed into heavy, black-gold water, each drop weighing an immense weight.

What churned on the sea was no longer waves, but materialized Asura energy, which condensed in mid-air into phantom images of thousands of troops charging into battle.

Shen Tian gazed at the magnificent, world-changing scene below.

In ordinary intermediate planes, whether it's the changing of mountains and rivers or the birth of life, everything follows the gentle laws of natural evolution and the mutual generation of the five elements.

But his little world has completely abandoned that path.

This is a special plane that exists purely for killing, fighting, and destruction.

It is full of characteristics of warfare.

Every inch of this land is deeply imprinted with his domineering and unparalleled martial will.

As the small world became completely stable, the world power, which was so pure that it could not be compared to anything else, began to flow outwards.

The immense energy flowed along the core of the plane, like a bursting dam of a galaxy, frantically pouring into Shen Tian's physical body.

Inside the bronze hall outside.

On the surface of Shen Tian's body, which was sitting cross-legged, ripples of purple-gold blood energy emanated uncontrollably.

The oppressive aura was as heavy as an ancient divine mountain.

Even with the array trying its best to block it, Xiao Ting, who was guarding outside, still felt his breath catch in his throat.

He stumbled back several steps before regaining his balance.

Shen Tian's aura rose steadily, directly crossing a huge watershed.

Late stage of Rank 8!

Shen Tian could clearly sense that a small amount of undigested and unabsorbed primordial remnants remained in his body.

Given time, once he has solidified this last bit of energy, his cultivation level will be able to stabilize at the late stage of the eighth rank, and he may even be able to directly challenge the threshold of the ninth rank.

The invincible path of cultivating essence, energy, and spirit simultaneously represents the weakness in the power of laws, which was finally forcibly strengthened through continuous slaughter and devouring.

However, for Shen Tian, ​​the improvement in his cultivation level was merely an added bonus that came naturally.

His real focus during this retreat was not on this.

The most urgent task is to create the third form of demon-slaying.

In his previous life-or-death battles with the reincarnated alien race, he figured out their life form.

Each time, one has to rely on opening the chest plane to swallow the enemy whole. While this method is brutal and effective, it can easily expose the body's defensive vulnerabilities to unknown and powerful enemies when facing truly intense melee combat.

He needs a more lethal move.

A single strike can not only sever the flesh, but also directly lock onto the source and annihilate its void rules—a deadly blade.
