Curse Reply: I'm going to fight the Myriad Corpse Immortal, the highest level one!

What he didn't say was that the first domain name he thought of was actually "Fu Nuo Imperial Chef".

As for why he was able to master the most profound "domain expansion" of sorcery on his very first day of exposure to it? Haha, don't make me laugh.

Not only did he transform himself into a mini-Gauss of the sorcery world, but he also used Infinite Black Flash to subdue the naturally masochistic core of sorcery power into a soft and glutinous little rice cake. How could he possibly not master the domain?

At this moment, within a crimson domain with him at its center and a radius of over two hundred meters, grows one after another eerie flower that blooms with a bewitching beauty, resembling a lotus, blood, and a sword.

Then, Xia Jie used a technique she hadn't even used when fighting Su Nuo—or more accurately, a domain reveal:

"My domain effect is to transform all blood within its range into extremely sharp sword lotuses that bloom in full glory, including the blood inside the enemy's body."

"Those who control the domain can actively avoid manipulating the blood of specific targets, thus shutting down friendly fire. Otherwise, Little Deer, you would already be riddled with blood lotus thorns."

Seeing Lu Ziyun's burning gaze, clearly envious of the domain, Xia Jie felt a surge of satisfaction, as if he were showing off in front of others, and began to explain his understanding of the domain in detail:

"To be honest, I only became a cursed spirit today and started using cursed blood manipulation techniques. I don't even know the barrier techniques necessary for a closed domain."

I used to not even know how to settle accounts—oh wait, I don't mean, I know how now.

Logically speaking, someone who can only handle the most basic accounts shouldn't be able to grasp the broader scope of the field.

But the last thing we sorcerers need to follow is the "following common sense" principle.

The so-called domain expansion, in essence, is to create a boundary that defines the inside and outside. The outside is "his" territory, and the inside is "my" territory. Then, on my territory, I will manifest the domain, or mental landscape, and inject the technique into it.

It's that simple.

An open domain, on the other hand, omits the boundary that distinguishes between "I" and "others," directly manifesting the domain of birth in the outside world, using a strong sense of self to complete a brief overwrite of the surface of reality.

For the average sorcerer, creating an open field is like painting in the air without a canvas, or filling a container with water without a bottle—it seems impossible.

Xia Jie read the same thought in Lu Ziyun's eyes. Clearly, Lu Ziyun also believed that the open domain was too difficult for humans to master.

Xia Jie simply smiled in response, increasing the output of her domain to relieve the pressure on the two from the Five Mansions while continuing her teaching:

"But this is the mindset of a waste!"

For the strong, open domains are the simpler technique!

Let me reiterate: the essence of the realm is the manifestation of mental images, the partial coloring of reality by the laws of the young gods.

Therefore, there is no need to consider how to paint without cloth or how to hold water without a bottle.

Because paint can be applied to everything, and spilled water will automatically spread out on the ground, it's that simple!

Just like a god who displays dominance,

I only need to let my inner landscape flow out, and the overflowing soul will naturally imbue everything with my colors.

Because my perception is more stubborn than reality, and my laws are more tenacious than mortal things, all things will surely submit to me, and all phenomena that follow me will naturally become my domain!

See? It's easy to learn, isn't it?

Let me see your field!

Xia Jie cast an expectant glance at her.

"..." Lu Ziyun turned her head away guiltily, not daring to meet Xia Jie's gaze.

"I see, I understand."

Xia Jie sighed at Lao Lu's reaction, "If you don't consider yourself a strong person, then go take the long way around, Lu Ziyun."

For the weak and mediocre, taking the long way is their shortcut.

Simply because they are born bound by common sense, their power is only enough to follow the natural order of life and death, not to defy the laws of nature and create their own destiny.

Therefore, they can only launch an absurd and futile conquest of death, just to give meaning to the meaningless grains of sand, and then fill them into their hearts, worshipping them as immortal gold.

Ordinary people, trapped by common sense, demonstrate their great deeds, live out their wonderful lives, and return to their ordinary deaths, just like... my family and friends.

This is both my view on the field and my view on strength and weakness.

Since Tianyuan ignored your question, why not take a look at my answer? Perhaps it will be of some value to you.

Chapter 28 Lu Ziyun's Domain

Xia Jie is a person who likes to tell little lies.

For example, one thing he didn't tell Lu Ziyun was that, as an orphan, his ordinary family members were just like himself in the past.

However, it's unlikely that Lu Ziyun would care about these details. Xia Jie's gaze towards the deer changed from bright to dark, and then from dark to bright again.

'Looks like you've figured it out.' Xia Jie narrowed her eyes slightly. 'Very good, let me see what your domineering mind is like.'

The concept of strength and weakness revealed in Xia Jie's words was like a ray of sunshine clearing away the clouds for Lu Ziyun. The questions that had troubled him all his life were answered at this moment, just like a lock that had found the right key.

"Thank you, Xia Jie. I have a clear mind now."

As soon as Lu Ziyun sat up from the Red Lotus Sword Prison, she said with some emotion:

"In the past, I couldn't get along with people without wavering, and I didn't know how to care for others. Everyone else was as fragile as a clod of earth."

I once thought that strength comes with loneliness, and that loneliness was the punishment I had to accept for my endless pursuit of power.

And now, I understand everything. Many challenged me and were killed by me. It was not a lonely endeavor, for I was the futile conquest in their lives, and they were the empty sand beneath my feet.

The weak become the wind and sand that blows the strong across the barren desert, and the strong then traverse the void to become even stronger. This is the love of the weak for the strong, and also the feedback of the love of the strong for the weak.

I've never been alone. Since there are people who make clods of earth, there must also be someone like me who molds them!

"Placing yourself in the position of the creator, isn't that bad?" Xia Jie smiled brightly and patted Lu Ziyun's shoulder with her left hand, which was not yet in a hand seal, saying, "Stand up."

As an ancient sorcerer who has mastered the Mixu Gelong technique, your foundation in barrier magic should be quite strong. If you survive today, you will definitely be able to create closed-off domains in the future.

"It's good to place your hopes on the future, but that's the mindset of the weak!"

Lu Ziyun grinned, her eyes burning as she looked at Xia Jie: "You said it before, didn't you? The last thing a sorcerer needs to follow is the common sense principle of 'doing things according to common sense'."

Therefore, I will take the shortcut of the strong!

These words startled Xia Jie, who was continuing to increase her output in the field and had become the main force in resisting pressure. She then nodded with satisfaction.

“Very good, your willpower has reached the standard. I can feel that the intensity of your mental landscape is quite good. Now, I will complete the last piece of the puzzle for you.”

Xia Jie extended her left index finger and gently tapped Lu Ziyun's forehead. A faint black flash appeared at the tip of her finger, and before Lu Ziyun could react, she had knocked him unconscious.

"Little Deer, this is already my weakest Black Flash. If it succeeds, both the experience gained from Black Flash and my profound understanding of the core of curse power will be invaluable."

A portion of it will flow into your soul through the magical power link generated by the harmony of the Heavenly Origin, helping you complete your final transformation.

Don't let me down, little deer. Go become the ruler, and then conquer everything.

Almost the instant the back of his head touched the lotus platform of blood, Lu Ziyun regained consciousness. He braced himself with his right hand, nimbly performed a backflip, and stood steadily on the lotus platform.

Then, Lu Ziyun spread her arms wide, as if embracing the sky, and her wild laughter echoed throughout the ever-expanding Pure Realm:

"I have grasped the core of the domain!"

Before he finished speaking, Lu Ziyun gripped the iron rod and leaped into the air. Just before escaping Xia Jie's domain, he didn't use the Mi Xu Ge Long again, but instead chose—

"Domain Deployment! Heavenly Thunder Swallow!"

No new domains appeared on the battlefield, neither closed nor open; only Lu Ziyun's body transformed into surging lightning.

However, the fact that Lu Ziyun was able to enter the realm of Tianyuan without being instantly converted by the emptiness wisdom of Tianyuan means that Lu Ziyun's realm has indeed unfolded.

"Wow, awesome, so there's this kind of domain expansion mode." The sorcery genius Xia Jie saw through the essence of the Prison Deer Domain at a glance.

Lu Ziyun's domain unfolds within his body! He uses the skin infused with cursed power as a barrier, successfully defining the inside and outside, and then allows his domain to materialize on his body; his body is his domain!

"What a fine example of using oneself as a boundary."

While using her left hand to punch the air and draw out the black flashes that could amplify her own status, Xia Jie admired Lao Lu's ingenious idea.

He could tell that Lu Ziyun had actually learned the open domain, but due to the collision and compression of the four mental images, the Pure Realm had long become an over-pressured reality filled with high-density incantations, spells, and self-beliefs, making it impossible to properly expand the domain.

Just like blowing bubbles in soapy water and blowing bubbles in glue requires different amounts of force, Lao Lu's force was clearly not strong enough.

Let alone a deer.

In this Pure Realm, which can barely sustain itself even in the Five Mansions, any other top-level sorcerer would only be treated like a roadside animal and kicked to death.

In the sky, the figure that had completely transformed into lightning turned around and looked at Xia Jie. Because of the forced activation of the spell "Phantom Beast Amber" due to the expansion of the domain, the extremely arrogant smile on the face that was gradually separating from the human could still be faintly seen.

An electronic-sounding voice reached Xia Jie's ears: "The effect of my domain is to forcibly electrify the bodies of people within it."

'Lu'er is so happy.' Xia Jie clicked her tongue twice in her mind, then replied with a serious, high-class air:

“If you are a mediocre person who is powerless to display dominance, then go and seek the Dao, Lu Ziyun.”

"Is that so? Yes. Perhaps that's true!!!" Lu Ziyun's figure instantly disappeared from the spot, crashing headlong into the Thousand-Handed Dharma Image that Tianyuan manifested in the Pure Realm. Then, as if hitting a non-existent phantom, she passed right through it without causing any damage.

This tangible yet intangible phantom,

It is precisely the combination of the principles of the Bodhisattva and the understanding of the nature of things that leads to the realization of the nature of things.

It can also be called "the appearance of liberation through seeing".

Meaning a rope of compassion that never fails, it represents the great vow and merit of surely saving all sentient beings. It also manifests the profound Buddhist knowledge accumulated by the Heavenly Origin. One can't help but wonder if this veteran, bored in the Palace of Death, was reading scriptures.

Seemingly weary of the long and fruitless struggle within the domain, the pressure from the Domain-Two-World Mandala suddenly eased, and Tianyuan's voice came from all directions: "Nirvana is eternally tranquil and pure, it is the non-empty snare, see me and you will be liberated."

—The Ultimate Chapter: Universal Salvation.

"Holy crap, this veteran is still going strong!"

Xia Jie couldn't hold back any longer. This Tianyuan was like the final boss in a game, with an unfathomable health bar and skill pool.

And they get stronger the more they fight, elbowing each other endlessly. There's neither a balanced combat experience nor a thrilling, exhilarating feeling.

What he wanted was a three-way battle where everyone took turns performing, ultimately winning by a hair's breadth, and sharing a big toast with his companions in the new world.

Instead of Boros fighting Saitama, only managing to damage Saitama's cloak after a long fight, and then using his ultimate move, Collapsing Star Roaring Cannon, to exchange for Saitama's serious punch.

That's not how the magic works! You're not Ten Shadows Nuo, so where do you get the charm to make me rush to give this divine opinion?

Chapter 29 I am all of myself, yet not myself.

"Pudu Yuanyin" is not a sound that can be heard, but rather an invisible, intangible, and difficult-to-defend-against meme-like wisdom that can spread and propagate like sound.

Or you could say

It is the voice of thought itself, spoken by Tianyuan with his soul.
