Chapter 1180: Domain Envelopment

Whoosh… whoosh… whoosh…

At this moment.

Across the vast chaotic void, countless white-robed figures of Dongbo Xueying had already appeared in various locations—some hovering above chaotic lands, some beside solitary universes, others amidst the turbulent currents of the void. Yet, the natural dangers birthed by the chaotic void could no longer threaten even a single one of Dongbo Xueying’s avatars.

With his current mastery of the Void Path, he naturally possessed over ten thousand avatars! Only four were stationed across the Four Great Sacred Realms.

The remaining five most powerful avatars had their souls partially weakened by Dongbo Xueying’s own will, as his strength was still constrained by the supreme laws of his homeworld’s source universe.

Though each of his ten thousand avatars had a weaker soul, their realms of comprehension were identical.

With his transcendent understanding, each avatar barely wielded the power of a Cosmic God.

“Hum.”

At this level, he could not unleash the intricate killing techniques of the *Flying Snow Battle Art*, only the simpler domain-type techniques he had devised in his early days.

A seemingly frail white-robed Dongbo Xueying stood in the chaotic void.

Around him, countless black mist sphere particles—the fundamental essence of the void—bent to his will. He did not need terrifying techniques like the *Hunyuan Ocean*. What he required was a domain vast enough! Every avatar poured its full strength into expanding the domain. Though he cultivated both the *Void Path* and the *Illusory Dream Path*, and his dreamworld’s reach was considerable, when it came to domain techniques, the Void Path reigned supreme.

And the suppression of the chaotic void’s laws was minimal.

Even back when Dongbo Xueying was merely a True God Ruler, he had wandered the chaotic void, his domain stretching unimaginably far.

Now?

“Hum.”

Though these avatars were weak, each possessed the power of a Cosmic God.

The void domains they unleashed were equally vast.

One, two, three…

Ten thousand avatars, scattered across the chaotic void, all acting in unison.

“Hmm.”

Though divided into ten thousand, their souls and thoughts remained interconnected.

In this moment, Dongbo Xueying used these countless domains to instantly blanket over seventy percent of the chaotic void.

“Roughly seventy percent of the void is now under my domain. However, many regions are barren wastelands. What I must protect are the universes and chaotic lands where life thrives.” With a thought, some avatars began teleporting to adjust their positions. Given Dongbo Xueying’s current mastery of the Void Path—surpassing even the Ninecloud Divine Emperor—a single teleportation could traverse the entire chaotic void.

The chaotic void.

Some regions stretched endlessly, devoid of universes or life, desolate and silent.

Others teemed with clustered universes and chaotic lands.

Thus, Dongbo Xueying abandoned the barren areas.

His ten thousand avatars could cover seventy percent of the void, and by forsaking the wastelands, he ensured that nearly all inhabited regions were enveloped!

“Perish!”

In one corner of the void, Emperor Jun appeared, raising a hand to engulf a distant universe.

Compared to the overwhelming might of the *Hunyuan Ocean*, which was detectable upon entry, Dongbo Xueying’s current domains—woven from black mist sphere particles—were far subtler. Though weak in power, their detection capabilities were unparalleled. Vast in scope, they remained undetectable to Emperor Jun.

“He’s here.”

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Three figures materialized in the distance—one Dongbo Xueying and two Sword Lords. The moment they appeared, Dongbo Xueying had already shielded the targeted universe.

“So fast!” Emperor Jun was stunned. The Sword Lords had arrived the instant he struck?

“Whoosh! Whoosh!”

The two Sword Lords attacked simultaneously.

Whoosh.

Emperor Jun fled once more.

“I’ve found him. Pursue!” With his domain covering seventy percent of the void, Dongbo Xueying could clearly perceive every shift in the black mist sphere particles as Emperor Jun teleported. Though Emperor Jun concealed his aura during transit, his movements remained within the domain’s grasp.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Dongbo Xueying’s avatar, accompanied by the Sword Lords, gave chase.

“How was it such a coincidence last time? He appeared the moment I attacked. Too fast.” Emperor Jun warily teleported elsewhere, uneasy. Normally, sensing distant disturbances and reacting took an instant.

“Rip!”

Two terrifying sword beams emerged from nothingness, slashing through Emperor Jun’s body, reducing him to black mist that coalesced in the distance. His face twisted in horror as he stared at the two Sword Lords and Dongbo Xueying.

“How?!”

“Flee!”

Suppressing the boiling blood within, Emperor Jun scrambled away.

Yet, the moment he arrived at another location—before he could even breathe—

Sword light descended once more!

“Rip!”

His injuries worsened.

Flee!

Flee!

Flee!

Emperor Jun felt as though no matter where he fled, sword beams would instantly strike. Too fast! Unbeknownst to him, Dongbo Xueying had optimized the pursuit—each time Emperor Jun arrived somewhere, an avatar would teleport the Sword Lords directly to him.

With seventy percent coverage, had Emperor Jun fled more, he might have discovered the barren gaps beyond the domain.

But after consecutive brutal assaults—each time facing the combined might of two Sword Lords—his wounds grew dire. Death loomed ever closer.

“It must be Dongbo Xueying. His Void Path techniques… he’s a supreme expert of the Void Path. His domain blankets the entire void. No matter where I flee, he sees me!” After several pursuits, Emperor Jun deduced the truth.

Though he mistakenly believed Dongbo Xueying had reached the supreme realm, it wasn’t entirely wrong—Dongbo Xueying’s strength rivaled it.

“How can this be? First, the Sword Lord, an unfathomable terror who crushed me. Now Dongbo Xueying, a master of the Void Path?” Emperor Jun seethed with despair.

Whoosh.

This time, he fled straight back to the Labyrinth Corridor.

The Labyrinth Corridor—the nest of the Annihilation Fiends—suppressed cultivators entirely. Within, Dongbo Xueying’s domain techniques were severely weakened, making the search for the nest arduous. Here, the supreme laws favored the Annihilation Fiends, rendering large-scale detection impossible.

“He’s escaped to the Labyrinth Corridor.”

Dongbo Xueying turned to the two Sword Lords. “The Labyrinth Corridor is the birthplace of the Annihilation Fiends. There, my domain’s range is limited, and space is unpredictable.”

“He fled there?” One Sword Lord smiled as his other avatar vanished. “Fine. We’ve driven Emperor Jun into hiding. Though killing him would’ve been ideal, at least the threat of the Great Annihilation is lifted.”

Dongbo Xueying nodded.

The Sword Lord grinned. “Xueying, you’ve hidden your skills well. Tianxin Daoist? Impressive. A single man, intimidating all the demons of the Heart Realm Continent.”

As Dongbo Xueying and the Sword Lord conversed,

The other Cosmic Gods watched the battle nervously—Heaven’s Fool Ancestor, Witch Ancestor, World Ancestor, Primordial Devil, Radiant Sovereign, Cloud Serpent Emperor, Blade Emperor, Bone Ancestor, and more. Their tension was palpable. If Emperor Jun had triggered the Great Annihilation, all non-supreme beings would perish!

“To think Xueying has also reached the supreme realm. Truly… unbelievable,” Blade Emperor murmured. Around him, Primordial Devil, Radiant Sovereign, Void Ancestor, Heaven’s Fool, and others observed projections of the Four Sacred Realms, each guarded by a white-robed Dongbo Xueying.

They had witnessed the clashes between Dongbo Xueying and Emperor Jun.

“No matter where Emperor Jun fled, Xueying’s domain tracked him! Relentlessly hunted by Xueying and the Sword Lord, his injuries mounted. Hah! He’s fled—likely to the Labyrinth Corridor. The last sanctuary for the Annihilation Fiends,” Old Man Stone declared, appearing among them.

The gathered Cosmic Gods exhaled in relief.

The crisis of annihilation was averted!

“The Sword Lord reached the supreme realm, and now Xueying too?” Void Ancestor shook his head, awestruck.

“My Sky Void Palace boasts two supremes?” Heaven’s Fool blinked.

A beautiful misunderstanding.

With limited insight, they judged Dongbo Xueying’s battle with Emperor Jun as proof of his supreme status.

Regardless, the Cosmic Gods rejoiced, their brush with death now a distant memory.

Meanwhile,

Dongbo Xueying and the Sword Lord continued their conversation.

“Indeed, before joining Sky Void Palace, I obtained the Heart Realm Token. But I refused to abandon my life to reincarnate in another source world. Later, cultivating the Ancient Path, I luckily manifested an avatar. Without hesitation, I sent it to be reborn in the Heart Realm Continent,” the Sword Lord explained. “So while it seemed I was secluded, untouched by trials, in truth, I was tempering myself there. No tribulations, no growth. How else could one ascend to Cosmic God, let alone the supreme realm?”

“Yet your progress was still astonishingly swift,” Dongbo Xueying remarked. “To reach the supreme realm in such a short time.”
