Chapter 1179: It’s Dongbo Xueying!

The Swordmaster stood high in the boundless skies of the Donglin Sacred Realm, his senses enveloping the entire realm.

“Pity. I cultivate the Path of Destruction. If I had mastered the Path of Undulations, the Path of Void, or other domain-specialized paths, I could have expanded my domain to cover the chaotic void, leaving no place for Emperor Jun to hide,” the Swordmaster mused inwardly with frustration. He was a master of destruction, the Sacred Master wielded the Path of Thunder, and the Stone Sage was a body-refinement expert—none of them specialized in domains.

Normally, they could still perceive all disturbances within the chaotic void.

If tracking was needed, they could locate nearly any Cosmic God!

But an ‘Ultimate’ existence was truly perfected—their soul aura completely concealed, making them utterly untraceable. The Swordmaster, the Sacred Master, and the Stone Sage could sense the entire chaotic void, yet Emperor Jun remained invisible unless he actively unleashed his power. If one of them had a domain-based technique, capable of covering an entire vast Source World, they could observe every living being within that domain at all times.

Every action of Emperor Jun—whether shapeshifting, concealing his aura, flying, teleporting, or traversing the void—would be laid bare within such a domain, leaving him no place to hide.

Alas… none of them were skilled in domains!

The Swordmaster was slightly better off. Thanks to the supreme secret legacy he had obtained, though not a domain specialist, he could still unleash a Destruction Domain capable of enveloping an entire Sacred Realm, allowing him to guard the Donglin Sacred Realm.

But the Sacred Master and the Stone Sage couldn’t even manage that!

“An Ultimate existence, determined to flee, is nearly impossible for even an invincible being to kill. Emperor Jun keeps escaping and destroying… If this continues, our entire homeland Source World will be gradually torn apart,” the Swordmaster thought anxiously, yet no solution came to mind.

“Swordmaster, allow me to assist you.” A sudden voice transmission reached him.

“Hmm?” The Swordmaster, hovering above the Donglin Sacred Realm, was taken aback. “Xueying? How can he help me?”

……

*Hum.*

Above the Wangu Sacred Realm, Dongbo Xueying appeared, gazing at the torn lands in the distance with a slight shake of his head.

In the Mother Ancestor Realm, another Dongbo Xueying emerged, looking down upon the countless living beings below.

In the Ancient Sacred Realm, yet another Dongbo Xueying stood, observing the multitudes who wholeheartedly worshipped the Sacred Master. He felt no killing intent—only pity. “Soon,” he murmured, “you will be free.”

With his original avatar still stationed in the Donglin Sacred Realm, all four of his avatars simultaneously unleashed their domain techniques.

*Boom——*

In the Wangu Sacred Realm, its leaders—the Witch Ancestor and the Realm Ancestor—were gripped by despair.

“What can we do? The Swordmaster’s strength is beyond imagination, surpassing even my master and the Sacred Master. Though he suppresses that Destruction Demon, he cannot kill it. That Ultimate Destruction Demon continues its rampage… If this goes on, within a thousand years, the entire chaotic void will descend into the Great Annihilation,” the Realm Ancestor clenched his fists in frustration.

The Source World’s destruction meant their deaths. He had once aspired to reach the Ultimate realm, but with the Source World on the brink of collapse, there was no time left.

“Can we not stop him? Is there truly no way?” the Witch Ancestor lamented.

The Stone Sage sighed, watching helplessly. “It’s over. This era is ending—the Great Annihilation is upon us.”

The Sacred Master stood coldly in midair, his expression dark. Watching Emperor Jun wreak havoc, soon to receive the Supreme Rule’s grand reward, yet being powerless to stop him, filled him with bitter resentment.

Then—

A terrifying fluctuation suddenly enveloped the entire Wangu Sacred Realm. Like the undercurrents of a vast ocean, it surged and pressed silently. Though seemingly calm—not even disturbing the grass—the Sacred Master, Stone Sage, Realm Ancestor, and Witch Ancestor all sensed its restrained might.

Like the ocean in stillness, it was deceptively peaceful.

But once unleashed, its power would be devastating.

“This fluctuation… covering the entire Sacred Realm? Where did it come from?” The Sacred Master, Stone Sage, Realm Ancestor, and Witch Ancestor all began searching.

Soon, they spotted the white-robed young man.

“Dongbo Xueying?”

“Him?”

……

In the Mother Ancestor Realm, Dongbo Xueying also executed the fourth killing move of the *Flying Snow Combat Art*—’Primordial Ocean.’ This technique was born from his near-Ultimate mastery of the Void Path, combined with insights from supreme secret legacies and his experiences traversing higher spatial layers. It had taken him countless years to perfect.

Every killing move he created was one he was truly satisfied with—both in concept and power.

“What is this?” The Mother Ancestor, who had been lying low in her realm, raised her massive head, staring at the white-robed man unleashing this terrifying domain.

“Dongbo Xueying? How… how can he be this strong?” A chill ran down her spine.

At this moment, across the four remaining Sacred Realms—Ancient Sacred Realm, Wangu Sacred Realm, Mother Ancestor Realm, and Donglin Sacred Realm—Dongbo Xueying’s four avatars simultaneously activated the ‘Primordial Ocean,’ their domains fully enveloping each realm.

The Void Path was inherently suited for domains, and the ‘Void Ocean’ technique, worthy of being a killing move in the *Flying Snow Combat Art*, was even more formidable. Even in the Heart Realm Continent, it could cover vast territories—easily encompassing a major city. The four Sacred Realms of their homeland were smaller in scale, and their rule suppression was far weaker.

The Ancient Sacred Realm had long been refined and controlled by the Sacred Master.

The other three Sacred Realms were also constructed by Cosmic Gods, their foundational rules limited to that level.

They paled in comparison to the ‘Primordial Ancient Sacred Realm,’ let alone the Heart Realm Continent—forged and governed by Yuan, where rule suppression was far stricter, imposing invisible constraints even on invincible beings.

“Such feeble rule suppression,” Dongbo Xueying mused silently.

At his current strength, he could disregard the suppression of the Sacred Realms—even the Ancient Sacred Realm’s constraints could be overpowered.

……

“Useless. I won’t engage you. Fleeing while destroying may be slower, but this Source World will still meet its end,” Emperor Jun sneered coldly, his eyes alight with the thrill of destruction. Born to annihilate, though his current power allowed him to resist this urge, the desire was ingrained in his soul.

The more he destroyed, the more satisfied he felt.

*Whoosh.*

He traversed space again, arriving in the Mother Ancestor Realm.

“Annihilate.” With a flick of his tail, the world seemed to split apart.

But then—

Emperor Jun’s expression changed.

He had been disdainful, paying no heed to the Mother Ancestor. Yet the moment he struck, an overwhelming force surged toward him!

“Suppress!” The Dongbo Xueying avatar stationed here—one of his nine strongest—flashed a cold glint in his eyes, fully unleashing the domain’s power.

Emperor Jun felt an endless, terrifying force pressing in from all sides. His tail strike, under this domain’s suppression, dissipated harmlessly.

Within this domain, Emperor Jun felt stifled, his every movement hindered.

“How can a domain be this terrifying?” He couldn’t believe it. “My strength is severely weakened!”

*Swish.*

The white-robed Dongbo Xueying emerged from the void’s currents, appearing before Emperor Jun in an instant.

“You? Dongbo Xueying?” Emperor Jun snarled, lashing out with a claw. Despite the domain’s suppression, countless twisting lines surged toward Xueying.

“Great Severing of Heaven and Earth!”

Dongbo Xueying formed a blade with his hand and slashed forward.

*Sshhk!*

A black line appeared, splitting the world in two—and cleaving through the twisting lines. Though the black line weakened as it severed the distortions, it still struck Emperor Jun’s body.

Emperor Jun’s form twisted like a black hole, absorbing the residual force.

Shock filled his eyes. “His strength… rivals mine?”

He had no idea.

Dongbo Xueying had slain Sovereigns and clashed with Island Master Zhan. Facing an Ultimate existence held no fear for him.

*Swoosh.*

A sword-light flashed, bisecting Emperor Jun’s body. He reformed from scattered black light, glancing between the Swordmaster and Dongbo Xueying in disbelief. “Two Ultimate existences? Impossible!”

Though furious, Emperor Jun immediately twisted space with countless lines and vanished.

The Swordmaster looked at Dongbo Xueying and smiled, transmitting, “Yingshan Xueying? Daoist Tianxin?”

Any single avatar capable of rivaling an Ultimate existence—now it was clear. ‘Yingshan Xueying’ was none other than Daoist Tianxin!

“Demon Sword Sovereign?” Dongbo Xueying transmitted back with a grin.

Both were sword masters.

Both had reached the Ultimate realm. The Demon Sword Sovereign’s rapid rise, coinciding with the Swordmaster’s early days in the Tai Void Heavenly Palace, along with the inexplicable familiarity—now, witnessing the Swordmaster’s full power, Dongbo Xueying confirmed his suspicions.

The two exchanged knowing smiles.

“You can guard the four Sacred Realms, freeing my two avatars to pursue him. But with him fleeing endlessly through the chaotic void, intercepting him will be difficult,” the Swordmaster transmitted.

“I have a way,” Dongbo Xueying replied confidently.
