Mo Yue thrust her sword towards Ye Ling, the surrounding space tearing like paper under its edge.
In an instant, Mo Yue's sword tip pressed against Ye Ling's brow, poised to pierce through!
Hum—!
At this moment, a strange sound emanated from within Ye Ling. Mo Yue was struck by an inexplicable force, and her sword could no longer advance an inch!
"This is—!!!"
Resisted by an unknown power, Mo Yue's pupils constricted sharply, her face filled with shock!
Realizing Ye Ling's terrifying nature, Mo Yue dared not hold back any longer. She immediately increased her strength, attempting to pierce Ye Ling's head!
However, no matter how much force Mo Yue exerted or how much spiritual energy she poured into her sword, she could not pierce Ye Ling's brow.
Boom!
A monstrous demonic energy erupted from Ye Ling's body, and a terrifying power cascaded onto Mo Yue!
Mo Yue was violently impacted, her long sword flying from her grasp. She spat out a mouthful of blood, her body sent flying tens of thousands of miles away!
"Mo Yue, what are you doing?"
Li Long, sensing the powerful force from behind, looked back with impatience. He saw Ye Ling standing in the void, holding Mo Yue's sword with demonic energy swirling around him.
"Where is Mo Yue?" Seeing Ye Ling holding Mo Yue's sword, Li Long was greatly alarmed. He quickly unleashed his divine soul, locating Mo Yue tens of thousands of miles away!
Seeing Mo Yue injured, Li Long instantly realized that Ye Ling might truly be the expert who killed Xie Bu Gui. He dared not be careless any longer and began to dragonize, golden dragon scales sprouting on his skin!
However, as Li Long transformed, the expressionless Ye Ling instantly appeared before him and slashed with his sword!
Li Long was enveloped by Ye Ling's domain, his cultivation beginning to decline, his strength, speed, and reflexes all dropping!
"So fast!!!"
Li Long saw Ye Ling's sword strike, but his body couldn't keep up with his thoughts. He could only watch helplessly as Ye Ling's sword descended!
Chish!
Golden blood splattered into space as Li Long's arm was severed!
After cutting off Li Long's arm, Ye Ling remained silent and raised his sword again, aiming for Li Long's neck.
Li Long, finally able to resist Ye Ling's domain, recovered his peak cultivation and retreated rapidly, narrowly dodging Ye Ling's sword strike!
After missing his target, Ye Ling ceased all movement, standing motionless in space like a robot without power.
Seeing Ye Ling stationary, Li Long feared a trap and dared not approach to test it. He retreated another ten thousand miles and took out a healing pill from his spatial ring to replenish his blood.
"Li Long!"
Mo Yue, who had been sent flying, also returned, her face pale. She asked Li Long, "Are you alright?"
Li Long tossed a pill to Mo Yue and said quickly, "I'm fine. It's just that the opponent's domain was a bit strange. For a moment, my cultivation was completely erased. If he hadn't cut off my hand but gone straight for my head, I probably would have died!"
"Erased your cultivation?" Mo Yue exclaimed in disbelief, "Are you serious?"
Li Long asked grimly, "What? Do you know this kind of domain?"
Mo Yue said with a grave expression, "If it really is that domain, then our situation is quite dire. Xie Bu Gui probably also died in that domain."
Li Long said impatiently, "Just tell me what the domain is! Don't be coy at a time like this!"
He had originally thought that after entering the inner universe, he could sweep aside all opposition, seize a large amount of Creation inheritances, and become a great contributor to the Void Palace.
But unexpectedly, upon entering, he encountered someone with a peculiar domain who nearly cost him his life!
Suffering setbacks and potentially facing mortal danger right from the start, Li Long was already extremely agitated.
Mo Yue did not continue to play coy. She said quickly, "I once read an ancient text in the palace's scripture repository. The text stated that the Barren Domain could erase all cultivation, and within the domain, the owner of the Barren Domain was the sole king!"
"Barren Domain?" Hearing Mo Yue's words, "Isn't that the domain of the legendary most powerful Creation God, Demon Emperor? Are you saying that guy controls the Demon Emperor's domain? How is that possible?"
Mo Yue said solemnly, "What's impossible about it? Don't forget that this is the final paradise constructed by the Demon Emperor. The inner universe contains all of the Demon Emperor's inheritances. It's not strange for someone to obtain the Barren Domain!"
"Damn it!" Li Long glared fiercely at Ye Ling in the distance and said resentfully, "If it weren't for the Barren Domain, I could have torn him into eight pieces and roasted him on a skewer!"
Mo Yue said quickly, "Let's stop with the useless talk. Since the opponent is a descendant of the Demon Emperor, let's not fight him alone. If we go together, we might not be his match!"
Li Long, after a moment of shock, also calmed down. He looked at Ye Ling and said grimly, "You're right! Even if he has the Demon Emperor's inheritance, he's just a native of the inner universe. If the two of us join forces, we can still take him down!"
"Then we'll kill him, and we'll divide the Creation inheritances!"
"Yes! Be careful of his domain, and don't engage in close-quarters combat!" Mo Yue quickly reminded him, then teleported behind Ye Ling, forming a pincer attack with Li Long.
Li Long also stopped holding back and fully transformed into his true form. A colossal dragon thousands of miles long appeared in space, roaring at Ye Ling!
"Roar—!"
The surrounding stars were shattered by Li Long's roar!
Ye Ling appeared as insignificant as dust before Li Long.
However, Ye Ling faced the colossal Li Long as if he knew nothing, remaining motionless.
Seeing Ye Ling unmoving, Li Long's golden eyes, as vast as stars, showed hesitation. He transmitted his voice to Mo Yue, asking, "Mo Yue, what's going on with this guy? Is he deliberately luring us into a trap?"
Mo Yue also looked puzzled and said, "I'm not sure either, but judging by his appearance, he seems to have no consciousness. We can try probing him first! Attack together!"
"Alright!"
Li Long responded, opened his mouth, and spewed golden dragon flames towards Ye Ling.
The golden flames scorched the universe, turning the dark space resplendent!
Mo Yue also formed seals with her hands. A massive formation spanning thousands of miles appeared behind her. Frost surged from the formation, condensing countless ice crystals that pierced through the universe, attacking Ye Ling!
The ice crystals and dragon flames struck Ye Ling simultaneously, completely engulfing him.
The space around Ye Ling could not withstand the power of the two supreme beings and suddenly collapsed!
The entire universe began to wail!
Endless mist, mixed with spatial storms, surged outwards. Star systems within hundreds of light-years instantly exploded!
The terrifying residual power seemed tireless. After devouring the surrounding star systems, it continued to spread outwards, threatening to engulf star fields with life!
Just then, Ye Ling, at the center of the inferno, slightly opened his eyes.
He glanced at the agitated power around him, then at Li Long and Mo Yue. His eyelids lowered, and he murmured to himself, "Two supreme-level extraterrestrial invaders... Good, I'll use them to test the strength of my new domain."
"Devouring Domain... Absolute Seizure!"
