In a perfect world, you start by relying on your own strength.

AHS's cold, mechanical voice continued to echo in the sky: "Target's combat strength exceeds expectations. Continue pressurization, deprive the machine of its self-healing, and force it into overload rampage!"

As soon as the command was given, the black mist around the several Devouring Beasts suddenly surged, their bones burst out abruptly, their bodies expanded again, and their aura soared wildly. They had abandoned their own life force and were forcibly pushed into a berserk state. Their attacks became even more ferocious and savage, and each pounce was filled with the ferocity of mutual destruction.

A fierce wind tore through the void, bone blades sliced ​​through the flowing light, and suffocating killing intent filled all directions.

Shi Geng moved through the air, his domain power flowing around his body, taking, blocking, and deflecting the force, single-handedly withstanding the relentless attacks of several berserk avatar-level creatures.

Instead of using the Abyss Approach, he endured the heavy blows with his physical body. His blood and qi surged, and his martial arts domain teetered on the brink of collapse under the strain. The light of the miniature planet between his eyebrows flickered, and his mental energy was being consumed rapidly.

This is a tough, life-or-death battle with no room for trickery; the slightest mistake could result in being torn to pieces by a hail of blades and overwhelmed by the endless onslaught.

The ferocious offensive surged in like a tidal wave. The power of each Transformation-level Devouring Beast at its limit was equivalent to that of a fourth-tier Planetary Realm expert. Bone blades tore through the sky, and Mana Black Mist corroded the surrounding void. Each round of fierce attacks crashed heavily into Shi Geng's martial arts domain.

The roar and vibrations continued, and the barrier of the domain was repeatedly shattered and dented, with cracks spreading out like a spider web.

Shi Geng's blood and qi surged, his clothes were billowing wildly in the violent wind, and his body suffered repeated blows from the aftershocks. His tiger's mouth went numb, and his internal organs trembled slightly.

He did not retreat, but instead calmed himself down, letting the intense pain, pressure, and sense of life and death crisis of the battle flood his mind.

In the midst of the intense battle, the fifth level of martial arts was repeatedly hammered, honed, and refined.

Countless parries, headbutts, shifts, and counterattacks—every exertion of force on the brink of life and death, every shift of magnetic field, and every release of spiritual power—all transformed into nourishment for the realm.

The previously stagnant martial arts realm began to quietly transform, reconstruct, and sublimate amidst the fierce battles.

The surrounding air currents, gales, and mana turbulence were all drawn together and merged into the domain's power.

What was originally just a confinement and suppression of the fifth realm began to generate a deeper and more domineering primal rhythm, its boundaries constantly expanding, and its aura becoming increasingly heavy and vast.

The AHS's mechanical voice suddenly carried a hint of alarm: "Target magnetic field anomaly detected, high and low dimension threshold exceeded! Locking on... Unable to lock on!"

Shi Geng's eyes flashed with divine light, and his aura suddenly changed.

The murderous aura, planetary magnetic fields, and battlefield fighting spirit were all absorbed into his martial arts domain. The precarious domain field instantly stabilized, all the cracks healed, and instead expanded outwards with a thunderous roar, unleashing an overwhelming pressure that swept across all directions.

Through fierce battles and trials, his martial arts realm is quietly transforming towards the sixth level amidst this arduous and deadly struggle.

After the domain underwent transformation and sublimation, the invisible domain power surged throughout the entire airspace, spreading outwards and covering the entire battlefield.

The originally rampant and raging Mana Black Mist was instantly suppressed. Several Transformation-level Devouring Beasts launched a fierce attack, but when they crashed into the newly formed domain rules, they were instantly as if they were stuck in a quagmire, and their movements suddenly became stiff and sluggish.

Their scarlet pupils flickered violently as they struggled desperately under AHS's control. As a result, the power of the domain tightened layer by layer, suppressing and imprisoning everything from their physical meridians to the source of Mana.

The void trembled, and the magnetic field around Shi Geng suddenly surged into the sky. The miniature planet between his eyebrows shone brightly, and his vast spiritual power and sublimated martial arts domain merged perfectly, complementing each other.

Having undergone the tempering of life-and-death battles, he has fully stepped into the sixth level of martial arts.

Shi Geng stood firmly in mid-air, his fighting spirit solidified like an abyss, his eyes no longer filled with any doubt or pressure, only a cold indifference.

The previously difficult situation of struggling and holding on step by step has been completely reversed at this moment.

He slowly raised his hand, starlight condensing in his palm, the magnetic force moving at his will, and his deep voice slowly echoing in the air: "Borrowing you puppets to reach the sixth level of my domain is a stroke of good fortune for you."

As soon as he finished speaking, the sixth level of martial arts domain tightened completely, and the invisible power of judgment crashed down, fiercely enveloping the several Transformation-level Devouring Beasts.

The sixth level of martial arts domain suddenly closed, and the vast and domineering power of the rules swept across the entire arena.

The several Transformation-level Devouring Beasts, which had been struggling wildly, were instantly frozen in mid-air. Their bone blades were stiffened in mid-air, the surging Mana black mist solidified layer by layer, and even the tremors of their bodies were forcibly suppressed.

The power of the domain seeped into every inch of their bones and every strand of Mana essence, directly locking down their self-healing ability and berserk combat power.

The AHS mechanical alarm blared: "Control link broken! Mana energy reverse flow! Machine out of control!"

For the first time, the cold, rigid program logic went awry. It watched helplessly as the puppet it had been controlling was stripped away layer by layer by Shi Geng's domain power.

Shi Geng stood in mid-air, his magnetic field flowing around him becoming increasingly harmonious and profound. The miniature planet between his brows slowly rotated, and a continuous stream of spiritual energy poured into his domain, consolidating his newly broken sixth realm.

The physical and mental exhaustion from the fierce battle was gradually soothed by the Daoist aura inherent in the domain, and both body and mind were baptized and sublimated at the moment of breakthrough.

His gaze swept indifferently over the several immobilized Transformation-level Devouring Beasts. With a wave of his hand, the magnetic field condensed into thousands of invisible blades, which, with the support of the domain power, instantly traversed the void.

hiss hiss hiss—

The crisp sound of sharp blades slicing through flesh rang out one after another. The Devouring Beast's hard bone armor was torn apart like paper, and the Mana core inside its body was precisely wrapped, imprisoned, and squeezed by the psychic blade threads.

There was no earth-shattering clash of brute force, only the absolute suppression and killing power of the sixth level of the domain.

AHS's voice was stiff with the program on the verge of collapse: "The variables can no longer be eliminated. Activate the final contingency plan..."

Upon hearing this, Shi Geng's lips curled into a cold smile, and his sixth level of martial arts domain expanded slightly again, instantly sealing off all directions.

"Trying to run away?"

"It's too late."

The moment the words left his mouth, the power of the domain erupted in full force.

The several Transformation-level Devouring Beasts, which were firmly imprisoned, had no room to struggle at all. Their bone armor, which was as hard as alloy, cracked and shattered first, and the mana black mist surging all over their bodies was forcibly crushed and dissipated by the power of the domain.

Crackling and rumbling sounds filled the air as the massive body shattered layer by layer, from skeleton to flesh. Its core rapidly withered and dissipated under the invisible pressure, and even its self-healing ability was completely severed.

In the blink of an eye, several monstrous beasts that had roamed the area and were used by AHS as weapons of annihilation were transformed into a sky full of black mist of broken bones, completely annihilated in the world, and forcibly reduced to stepping stones for Shi Gen's martial arts realm to sublimate.
