C1862 He Was Defeated with One Strike

In the Gray Domain, at the Heaven Opening Flare Star, Ann Ziqing served as the medium for Yu Yuan to create a clone from his lifeblood energy and will. He directed Duan Yisheng and Jun Chen to seek out Lau Ying.

Lau Ying and the ground beetle were not only Duan Yisheng's cherished treasures but also the beacon of hope for the Star Sect.

Duan Yisheng, Jun Chen, and Tan Junshan had ventured here partly because of Lau Ying. They were elated to discover that Lau Ying and the ground beetle were harmoniously paired.

The Rock Clan warriors were indifferent to the skirmish between Yu Yuan and Norant. Once granted permission, they sought out the Turtle God.

The Turtle God was pivotal for the Rock Clan's journey to the Gray Domain. Several of the clan's Ninth Level warriors aspired to shatter the Turtle God's bloodline constraints and ascend to the pinnacle of the Tenth Level.

Jessica of the Silver Scale Clan, already familiar with Yu Yuan's might, disregarded Norant's challenge. She guided her people to select a suitable star for settlement, following the Abyss Goanna's guidance.

The Tia Main Planet remained closed, prompting those uninterested in clashing with Norant and Yu Yuan to depart from Heaven Opening Flare Star. Before long, the number of extraterrestrial warriors on the star had halved.

Norant brooded with a dark expression, his reasons for anger unclear, and he refused to speak with Cadorath.

His glares at Barol were laced with hostility. Norant believed that Barol was a key ally in Cadorath's firm leadership, having advised the Patriarch to demand the Sacred Glory Battle Armor and several Quasi-Sacred Relics from him.

Barol, initially inclined to intercede on Norant's behalf, grew tired of his irrational demeanor and chose to ignore him.

Then came the day when a dazzling light burst forth from a shadowy subterranean cavern.

Yu Yuan's true form, accompanied by Zhou Cangmin and Yuan Lianyao, traversed the Realm passageway within the Fallen Moon Forbidden Area, arriving in the Gray Domain. Upon his arrival, his blood clone seamlessly integrated with his true self.

Yu Yuan's cheeks flushed slightly as he cast a glance at Norant, clad in the "Sacred Battle Armor," and said, "Just a moment longer."

He hurled the Dragon Slash Platform into the air, where the pale stone platform abruptly expanded, matching the color of the Heaven Opening Flare Star.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Beams of light, brimming with the mysteries of space, cascaded from the Dragon Slash Platform, infusing every underground cavern on the surface of the Heaven Opening Flare Star.

He methodically sealed each cave linked to the Heaven Opening Flare Star, which allowed passage from other realms into the Gray Domain.

In the past, the Origin Realm God utilized his secret spatial arts, connecting through the Origin Realm Gates to the Heaven Opening Flare Star.

He harnessed the Heaven Opening Flare Star to capture the immense powers of the cosmos, aspiring to become the supreme Evil God.

His astonishing tactics, along with the aid of the Void Spirit Succubus, resulted in hidden passageways between the Heaven Opening Flare Star and various realms.

Now, Yu Yuan set up the Dragon Slash Platform as a lock to obstruct those inter-realm channels.

He ensured that the extraterrestrial powerhouses could no longer traverse the hidden pathways to the Gray Domain at will.

This was particularly true for Hao Yun!

The pathway linking the Fallen Moon Forbidden Area and the Delude Devil Abyss had branched off, creating a new route to the Heaven Opening Flare Star in the Gray Domain, due to the frequent use by Zhong Chichen and Zhou Cangmin.

What was once a two-way passage had now become a three-way junction.

Zhong Chichen, along with other wandering practitioners, could utilize this new route to come and go from the Gray Domain.

Before bringing Zhou Cangmin and Yuan Lianyao over, he had resolved to establish a series of barriers and restrictions, aiming to limit all visitors from Hao Yun.

Zhong Chichen and the other exalted beings from Hao Yun would find themselves unable to traverse the Fallen Moon Forbidden Area's passage, instantly crossing the formidable spatial barriers to reach the Heaven Opening Flare Star in the Gray Domain.

Shehun's ominous words had cast a shadow over his heart, compelling him to proceed with utmost caution.

"Red Devil Sect, Zhou Cangmin, Yuan Lianyao."

As Yu Yuan wielded the Dragon Slash Platform, Shi Jing'er, Zhou Cangmin, Feng Zhong, and the others from the Babel Chamber of Commerce looked on with a hint of astonishment.

The sudden arrival of Zhou Cangmin and Yuan Lianyao carried profound implications. As cultivators from the Red Devil Sect, their unhesitant decision to accompany Yu Yuan to the Gray Domain spoke volumes. It suggested that the Red Devil Sect had cast aside the constraints imposed by the five major powers and was no longer concerned with Han Miaoyuan, the human race's leader.

"That star? Why is it so brilliantly dazzling and vibrant?"

Zhou Cangmin, now only in his Yang God form, greeted Zhou You and Feng Zhong with a warm smile before turning his gaze to the Tia Main Planet, nestled among numerous energy vortices, and voiced his amazement. The Heaven Opening Flare Star, now relocated nearby, allowed him to behold the pale golden Tia Main Planet from a distance, shrouded in a dense mist of Galaxy Extraordinary Talent, far surpassing its neighboring regions.

"The Divine Soul Sect plans to use the Tia Main Planet to forge a new Vast Ocean. This Main Planet is significantly larger than the Vast Ocean, richer in resources and minerals, and surrounded by an abundance of Galaxy Extraordinary Talent," Shi Jing'er remarked dreamily. "The Divine Soul Sect believes that above the Tia Main Planet, even mightier beings will emerge, capable of condensing more of the Origin."

"A new Vast Ocean!"

Zhou Cangmin and Yuan Lianyao were deeply moved by the revelation. Only now did they understand why the Babel Chamber of Commerce and numerous extraterrestrial races were aligning themselves with the Divine Soul Sect. The ambitions of the Divine Soul Sect were far greater than they had ever imagined.

"This was the grand vision of that esteemed lord from the past!"

Tianqi, standing tall like a towering mountain, gazed at Yu Yuan's silhouette as he operated the Dragon Slash Platform, his voice deep and resonant.

"Dragon Slayer!"

"Divine King Lunar Yin!"

Thunderous rumbles echoed as the massive star, encircled by colossal energy vortices, emitted periodic dull tremors and bursts of colorful light.

"What's this?" Yuan Lianyao inquired with curiosity.

"The Primordial Divine King is currently beneath the Tia Main Planet, delving into the profound laws of the earth," came the explanation.

The exceptionally beautiful Jiaang Miaojie lightly smiled, her lips pursed, as she wore a moon-white dress adorned with embroidered flowers.

Her skin radiated a translucent divine glow, and her eyes, clear as a mountain brook, frequently rested on Yuan Lianyao, betraying a deep curiosity about this woman whose relationship with Yu Yuan had always been ambiguous.

Yuan Lianyao regarded her with a curious expression. "And you are?"

"I, too, am a member of the Divine Soul Sect, born beyond our world. My name is Jiaang Miaojie."

"I see."

Yuan Lianyao gave a slight nod, then turned her gaze towards Elena, who was still on the Heaven Opening Flare Star, and Denise, who had stepped out of the Element Cage.

Elena's eyes held a deep, hidden affection when she looked at Yu Yuan, a sentiment Yuan Lianyao, as a woman, understood immediately.

Denise, adorned in fine garments and sparkling star accessories, gently counseled Elena while pointing at Yu Yuan and murmuring something, stirring a touch of sourness in Yuan Lianyao's heart.

"Alright then."

Once the dazzling beams of light had established numerous barriers and restrictions connected to the Dragon Slash Platform within the Heaven Opening Flare Star, Yu Yuan finally exhaled in relief.

From that moment on, anyone attempting to enter the Gray Domain via spatial tunnels would trigger an alert at the Dragon Slash Platform upon contact with those barriers.

No matter their location, he would be notified instantly.

This was especially true for Zhong Chichen, whose intelligence and mastery of spatial secrets were unparalleled.

"Sacred Glory War God, Norant."

The Yang God remained stationed at the Abyss Gate, but Yu Yuan, in his true form, grasped the Dragon Slash Platform and smiled at Norant, the general of the Sacred Glory Army who had clearly been manipulated by Cadorath. "One final question: do you truly wish to challenge me?"

This time, Norant hesitated before responding.

He seemed uncertain, casting glances at High Priest Reid and the Heavenly Devil, Yuv Qian.

While waiting for Yu Yuan's true form on the Heaven Opening Flare Star, High Priest Reid had casually shared his experiences in the Dim Starfield, mentioning the Yang God's source that had been refined and swallowed by Yang God Yu.

Reid recounted the fierce clashes between Yu Yuan and the Supreme Demon Phoenix.

Even the usually impulsive Norant grew cautious after hearing about it.

"Yu Yuan, where is your Yang God?" inquired Cadorath, her beauty reminiscent of a finely carved jade, as she smiled sweetly.

"He's unable to come to the Gray Domain at the moment; there are more pressing matters to attend to," Yu Yuan responded.

"Oh, I see," Cadorath mused, her expression serious. "It seems somewhat unfair for the Yang God to be absent. Perhaps we should call this off?"

"No way!" Norant bellowed.

Upon learning that the Yang God couldn't make it, the Sacred Glory War God, previously wavering, found newfound bravery.

Cadorath gently shook her head, "No, this isn't right."

With a thunderous boom, Norant leapt into the air, his Sacred Glory War Armor blazing with light. Like a brilliant flare, he soared towards Yu Yuan. "Let's see just how formidable you are!"

Yu Yuan's gaze held layers of depth as he first looked at Cadorath, then hurled the Dragon Slash Platform.

The colossal Dragon Slash Platform sent the Sacred Glory War God and his renowned relic plummeting from the sky, crashing into the starry abyss.

Norant failed to withstand even a single strike from the Dragon Slash Platform.
