Swallowing the Stars: Time Simulation

Chapter 232 Slaying a Sixth-Tier Domain Lord

Inside the palace, Burns, his face grim, sat at his desk, which was piled high with intelligence data from the Rock Territory.

"Where did Emina go?" Burns slammed his hand on the table and stood up abruptly, pacing back and forth in the study with a furrowed brow.

"Emina never stays out for more than a day normally. Could she have encountered some danger?"

Thinking of this, Burns couldn't help but feel worried again.

In the Blood Luo World, a day lasts for nearly a hundred hours. At the speed of travel of a star level, one could probably travel a great distance. Therefore, even if Amina goes out, she will usually return before dark.

"Hmm?" As a domain-level expert, Burns was naturally extremely sensitive to the world and quickly sensed a trace of aura that had never appeared before.

Burns immediately shouted angrily, "Who is it?!"

Boom!

Centered on Burns, countless streams of blue energy spread outwards, strangely passing directly through the entire palace without causing any damage.

This is precisely the mark of a domain master: a domain!

Even among cosmic-level powerhouses, many lack a domain. Domain Lords, however, are different; to break through to the Domain Lord level, comprehending one's own domain is a prerequisite.

The cyan domain instantly spread over a distance of one kilometer, yet neither people nor objects within it suffered any harm.

call out!

A spear beam flashed through the palace, instantly piercing through the spherical blue field with a radius of one kilometer, and fiercely stabbing towards Burns, who was located at the center of the field.

Just as the spear flashed, Burns also saw a warrior not far away, covered in black armor and wielding an ancient spear.

"Cloud-level?"

Upon sensing Yang Wu's aura, even Burns, with his composure, couldn't help but be slightly taken aback.

What is this?

How dare a peak Cloud Realm martial artist attack him, a mid-stage Domain Realm martial artist?

The difference in energy between these two is hundreds of times! Moreover, a Domain-level expert possesses a domain, and their body core has become a singularity. As long as the singularity remains intact, a Domain-level expert will not suffer any fatal damage.

"Die!"

Although Burns didn't know why a peak Cloud Realm expert dared to provoke him, he still roared and two silver scimitars instantly appeared in his hands. He transformed into a phantom and, with the support of the azure aura, swiftly charged towards Yang Wu.

Boom!

Burns' silver scimitar slashed fiercely at the spearhead aimed at his brow.

For a moment, Burns' figure suddenly stopped, and then an extremely violent shock wave surged wildly in all directions, causing the entire palace to explode.

"What?" Burns' expression changed slightly, but he was inwardly shocked.

Because the power of that spear light was comparable to that of a martial artist in the early stage of the Domain level.

"Could this person be a genius from the Temple of Immortality?" In the past two hundred years, although Burns has been extremely domineering in his own territory, he has been extremely respectful to the city lord of the world city to which he belongs, so he also knows a lot of secret information about the Blood Luo World.

"The more talented someone is, the more they must die!" Burns sneered inwardly, then unleashed an even more astonishing speed as he charged toward Yang Wu.

He wouldn't leave himself with such a terrifyingly talented enemy.

"Sixth-tier Domain Lord, ninth level of Domain, his comprehension of the Law of Wind is barely enough to pass the first level of the Bridge to Heaven!"

After Burns shattered the spear light, Yang Wu, with his keen eye, naturally analyzed the man's full strength.

While such strength might not seem like much among the countless geniuses in the Virtual Universe Company, it would still be considered a genius among Domain Lords in the entire universe.

After all, Yang Wu's senior brother, Latte, was already a ninth-level Domain Lord and a ninth-level Domain Master, but he hadn't even crossed the threshold of the Laws!

"Not bad prey!" Yang Wu smiled slightly.

Burns, who had just rushed out of the palace ruins, was about to approach Yang Wu.

However, an incredibly stagnant crimson domain instantly spread out from Yang Wu's center. The terrifying domain, which perfectly integrated the laws of space and fire, erupted instantly, as if it had become tangible, and continuously pressed down on the cyan domain surrounding Burns' body.

At the same time, thousands of Yang Wu's phantoms appeared around Burns' body, all wielding the Overlord Spear, and attacked Burns.

"The fundamental laws of space?"

"How is it possible for someone at the peak of the Cloud Realm to be able to create thousands of illusory bodies?"

Burns was utterly shocked to see Yang Wu instantly unleash thousands of illusory bodies. Even a peerless genius of the Cloud Realm from the Immortal Temple that he had once met could only unleash a few dozen illusory bodies.

"Such a terrifying enemy must be eliminated as soon as possible!" Burns stood motionless, holding his twin swords.

Seeing Burns remain motionless, Yang Wu, who was using his movement technique, secretly became wary: "With his strength, he shouldn't just sit and wait to die in the face of this attack! Could he have some trump card up his sleeve?"

Yang Wu never forgot the words that his teacher, Jin Guanghou, had told him: no matter how powerful you are, you must always have a sense of awe for the universe.

Just as Yang Wu's thousands of illusory bodies reached Burns, Burns's primal force surged into his battle suit.

Countless spear shadows pierced Burns' body, but the battle suit trembled slightly, dispersing all the impact force across Burns' entire body, leaving only a white dot on the suit.

"Found you!" Burns shouted suddenly, then slashed his silver twin blades at one of the thousands of phantoms.

At the same time, Burns was secretly relieved.

"Fortunately, fortunately I offered all my treasures except for the Blood Crystal to the World Lord, in exchange for this precious battle armor! Otherwise, even if I managed to escape with my life from their attack, I wouldn't have been able to capture them!"

Just as Yang Wu unleashed thousands of illusory forms, Burns knew that his speed was far inferior to Yang Wu's.

Therefore, he chose to risk his life, wanting to use his battle armor to withstand Yang Wu's attack in order to find out Yang Wu's true identity.

In the end, he succeeded!

"Haha, you're dead!" Burns smiled smugly as he watched his silver scimitar about to strike Yang Wu.

Boom!

Yang Wu swung his spear to parry, and the Overlord Spear collided fiercely with the silver scimitar.

Ultimately, no matter how high Yang Wufa's understanding of the law was, his own strength was far inferior to Burns', so he was directly cleaved hundreds of meters away by Burns' sword.

However, apart from the impact force, all other attack forces were blocked by Kash, who had reached the seventh level of the Domain Lord.

"this……"

Seeing that Yang Wu was unharmed, Burns' eyes were filled with disbelief.

"Could he also possess such a miraculous battle suit? No! Even if he does, he's only at the peak of the Cloud Realm. He should at least be injured after taking my full-force attack!"

Seeing that his attack had failed, Burns could not hide his disappointment, but he also knew that there was no way he could kill his opponent now.

Of course, Burns wasn't too worried about his safety. With that amazing suit, there was no way the enemy could kill him.

Therefore, Burns stopped trying to attack Yang Wu and instead attempted to defuse the conflict, directly asking, "Who exactly are you? And why did you attack me?"

When Yang Wu saw Burns's confident and fearless expression, he immediately knew the source of the other party's confidence—that fourth-tier Force battle suit.

"What foolish confidence!" Yang Wu sneered inwardly, then immediately activated the secret runes on the Overlord Spear.

The Force Suit is indeed a good piece of equipment, allowing the user to have a huge advantage in battles of the same level. As for lower-level martial artists, they simply cannot break through its defenses!

But that applies to ordinary people!

Which powerful martial artist in the universe doesn't possess a Force suit for protection? If it were that easy to withstand attacks from others, it would be far too simple!

Therefore, the Force Suit is not invincible in terms of defense!

Or use a more powerful attack, exceeding the Force suit's limits, to destroy it directly; or use Force weapons to attack... There are too many ways to reduce or destroy the Force suit's defenses.

boom!

A phantom image of a dragon instantly surrounded Yang Wu's body, greatly increasing his aura.

In fact, Yang Wu could have used the fifth level of the Overlord Spear technique, "Starry Sky," to deal with Burns, but fearing further accidents, he directly used his strongest technique.

When Yang Wu activated the secret runes, Burns still looked completely unconcerned.

But when the dragon-shaped phantom surrounded Yang Wu's body, Burns was completely stunned!

"The power of the world...?" Burns' expression was even more tense than when he saw Yang Wu unleash thousands of illusions.

It should be noted that even in the Blood Luo World, where powerful beings abound, a Realm Lord is still a terrifying existence, capable of controlling a territory spanning over a billion square kilometers!

Previously, Yang Wu's aura was only at the Cloud Realm level. Although his talent was incredibly extraordinary, he was ultimately just a genius.

The World Lord, who possesses the power of the world, is already a powerful figure. Crushing Burns would be as easy as crushing an ant!

boom!

Having unleashed the power of the world, Yang Wu no longer hesitated and immediately fired a shot at Burns, who was standing there dumbfounded.

Burns' eyes widened, attempting to resist, yet fear gripped his heart. In that moment of hesitation, Yang Wu's Overlord Spear pierced his chest, then twisted violently within Burns' body, finding and destroying his life core.

"You..." Burns' body went limp, and he collapsed to his knees, blood gushing from his chest.

Burns never knew why Yang Wu was targeting him until his death.
