Chapter 641: Breaking Laws, Breaking the Dao, Breaking All Rules!

Above the desolate earth.

A massive thunder sphere floated rapidly across the heavens and earth, ten thousand threads of lightning slashing down upon the land, spilling out wisps of cyan smoke.

Before long, two or three newly born thunder-sphere creatures flew out, beginning to repair the damaged surface of the giant thunder sphere.

The giant thunder sphere would depart from the Dark-Devouring Mother Nest, head toward the Kumeng Micheng, and continue flying onward.

As for Chen Yan and the others inside the thunder sphere, they had already entered the Enlightenment Myriad Manifestations Map.

Green mountains like dark eyebrows, layers of peaks and ridges.

Green waters winding, great rivers roaring.

Inside the Enlightenment Myriad Manifestations Map.

Chen Yan and the others sat cross-legged in the void, soon discussing a strategy.

The Five-Clan Struggle consists of three secondary-level domains in total, and under each secondary-level domain, there are three tertiary-level domains.

The Dark-Devouring Mother Nest borders the Kumeng Micheng.

The Kumeng Micheng is sandwiched between the Dark-Devouring Mother Nest and the Corroding Moon Blood Sea.

Currently, Xia Long, Shen Yiwei, and the others have established the Great Xia Base in the Gu Shen Shan, a tertiary-level domain under the jurisdiction of the Corroding Moon Blood Sea, so there is no need to worry for the time being.

If Chen Yan wants to rendezvous with the main force, he must pass through the Kumeng Micheng.

Of course, passing through is another matter.

Chen Yan's goal is to first take down the Kumeng Micheng.

In this way, the living environment for the Five-Clan Creation Realm experts will become smaller and smaller.

Yin Qingshuang drew a simple map, which was the general map of the Five-Clan Struggle as she understood it.

"The three tertiary-level domains subordinate to the Kumeng Micheng are the Corroded Sound Old House, the Xue Teng Zhuang Yuan, and the Ice Bone Tomb."

Yin Qingshuang pointed out the three locations:

"Our group was initially at the Ice Bone Tomb, where we once had a great battle with Ji Yanbing of Ji Province.

Later, upon learning that you were going to start a domain war with the Thousand-Face Corridor, we abandoned the Thousand-Face Corridor and came to the Dark-Devouring Mother Nest, only to encounter Yu Ming."

Yin Qingshuang briefly recounted the experiences of their group.

Currently, the Kumeng Micheng is basically the main base for the Five Clans.

On the Ji Province side, Ji Yanbing leads the Ji Province Creation Realm experts, holding down the Ice Bone Tomb.

The Corroded Sound Old House is held by some Five-Clan Creation Realm experts who are not very strong.

As for the Xue Teng Zhuang Yuan, it was initially occupied by Lu Province Creation Realm experts.

Later, the siblings Lu Wuyi and Lu Jianxia left the Corroded Sound Old House and headed directly to the Kumeng Micheng.

The Yu Clan, the Yu Province Creation Realm experts from Yu Laiwei's side, suffered heavy casualties in the great battle against Xia Long's side at the Gu Shen Shan and fled to the Kumeng Micheng domain.

They have just arrived at the Xue Teng Zhuang Yuan.

Chen Yan narrowed his eyes and looked toward the location of the Xue Teng Zhuang Yuan.

He had obtained a map after attacking the Thousand-Face Corridor.

On the map, three locations were marked, and one of those locations was precisely within the Xue Teng Zhuang Yuan.

Chen Yan guessed that as the only specialty of the Thousand-Face Corridor, that map must be a treasure map.

Within the marked locations, there might be treasures that would be of great help in improving Chen Yan's strength.

Soon, Chen Yan indicated the direction of the advance:

"First to the Ice Bone Tomb, then to the Xue Teng Zhuang Yuan, and finally, attack the Kumeng Micheng."

Everyone nodded, then smiled at each other.

With the time-dilation effect of the Enlightenment Myriad Manifestations Map, they could prepare many things.

Soon, Yin Qingshuang led everyone to begin preparing their methods.

Chen Yu was also called over and treated like a princess.

The attitude of the group actually gave Chen Yu the feeling of being the center of attention.

On one hand, Chen Yu is now a Formation Venerable.

And the kind of Formation Venerable who can create multiple types of formations.

On the other hand, Chen Yu is Chen Yan's younger sister, and everyone treats her with great respect.

This made it difficult for Chen Yu to adapt for a moment.

After all, these are all Creation Realm experts, all top-tier figures of Great Xia.

Chen Yan, meanwhile, distanced himself from the crowd, flying over mountains and rivers, walking alone through the void.

Chen Yan needed to conceive his Realm-Breaking.

Realm-Breaking is not something you can possess just because you have reached a certain level.

It is a path that requires pioneering new territory.

It is a massive project.

Every bit and piece born from Realm-Breaking is the birth of a new rule.

"The Qi-Blood and Tempering paths both use the origin space to transform into one's own universe, with the Dharma Manifestation serving as the galaxy.

But the Will path has no origin space, and the Will Dharma Manifestation cannot become a galaxy."

Chen Yan murmured.

The birth of the Establishment Realm more or less imitated the Qi-Blood and Tempering paths.

But by the time it reaches the Establishment Realm, it requires Chen Yan to innovate completely.

At this moment, as if he were in a land with no one else, he landed on a great river and walked slowly across the surface of the water.

He tapped his fingertip lightly against the void, and a wisp of golden-red will dripped into the void like red ink, staining and painting within the space.

Ideas emerged one after another in the depths of Chen Yan's mind, but were quickly rejected by Chen Yan.

He forgot time, he forgot space.

Walking alone.

In the depths of his mind, he recalled that battle with the Dark-Devouring Mother Tree.

Battle is the most precious nourishment.

This let Chen Yan know what exactly he was lacking.

Time passed day by day.

It was not until the fifth day that Chen Yan's gaze flashed, and he realized belatedly that he had already arrived above the sea.

"Actually, why must I overthink it?"

Chen Yan shook his head slightly; five days of conceiving, five days of rejecting, and in the end, the answer to Chen Yan was the ideal Chen Yan had from the very beginning.

Yes, an ideal.

To break the shackles of the Ancient Gods, to slash away the injustices of the world.

This was Chen Yan's original vision.

"Heaven and Earth are shackles, malice is a shackle, rules are also shackles!"

Chen Yan's pupils brightened slightly:

"I, Chen Yan, have been struggling within shackles since birth, and have been desperately shattering everything."

At this moment, he realized something.

The realm-breaking Chen Yan thought of in his heart was a powerful martial path that breaks the rules of the Ancient Gods.

"It is a brand new realm where I am invincible wherever my will resides!

The rules of others are useless to me!"

Rule-Breaking!

Chen Yan's eyes flashed wildly; in his mind, ten thousand thoughts surged and intertwined like a wild torrent.

Until at last, they converged into a single point.

Break!

This is the most fundamental, most important point.

The battle with the Dark-Devouring Mother Tree.

The Dark-Devouring Mother Tree used various means with the help of the aura of life and death and malice.

Sinister, powerful.

If it sees you being struck, you will suffer the strike.

If it predicts you will be heavily injured, you must be heavily injured.

If it says it will deprive you of your ability, it deprives you of your ability.

The Heavenly God Armor is, after all, a divine artifact.

It was deprived just by it saying so.

The path of will, his Chen Yan's path of will, was gone just because it said so.

Overbearing, unreasonable.

The opponent could create rules.

By what right?

By the fact that the opponent is stronger, by the fact that Chen Yan is too weak.

The Establishing Realm is to break through these rules, to break through all rules.

How to break them?

Break them with will, break them with the Divine Body of Will!

The next instant, Chen Yan left the Enlightenment Myriad Manifestations Diagram and appeared inside the room of the Magnetic Storm Thunder Prison.

Chen Yan found a room that only he could enter.

Immediately.

Hum!!!

Ten thousand layers of scorching golden-red light bloomed from Chen Yan's body and detached.

A Divine Body of Will, identical in appearance to Chen Yan, appeared.

"Will is mine alone; I am a realm, I am a domain!"

The two Chen Yans spoke in unison.

The next moment.

The Divine Body of Will actually began to twist, dissipate, condense, and transform into a ball of light.

The Divine Body of Will needs to evolve.

Evolve into a realm, or rather...

A domain!

Breaking the realm is a domain.

It is a domain that belongs solely to Chen Yan.

With the domain upon him, rules from others will all move away from Chen Yan and will all be broken by Chen Yan.

Breaking the realm is breaking the law!

Breaking the rules!

Now, the Divine Body of Will has detached from Chen Yan's physical body and will continuously evolve and continuously reform.

Until the end, it completely becomes the perfect form, merging into one with Chen Yan.

Becoming a true Realm Breaker.

Evolution requires constant trial and error, and it requires constant change.

In a single breath, there are tens of thousands of evolutions, changes, and resets.

In Realm Breaking, there is no longer the guidance of predecessors, and no longer any object to use as a reference.

Everything requires Chen Yan himself.

As for Chen Yan, he will retain a portion of the power of will within his body for his own cultivation.

One cannot cultivate within the Myriad Aspect Diagram of Dao Comprehension; one can only comprehend techniques.

Chen Yan currently does not need techniques; what he needs is a powerful foundational martial force.

That is to say, the path of Qi and blood must also give birth to the first layer of his own universe.

After giving birth to the first layer of his own universe of the path of Qi and blood.

Chen Yan will, just like with the path of Horizontal Refining, cause the first layer of his own universe of the path of Qi and blood to be destroyed and then reborn.

Of course, the reason the path of Horizontal Refining can succeed is inseparable from the preaching of the Master of Horizontal Refining.

Whether the path of Qi and blood succeeds, Chen Yan might encounter immense danger.

"What I want is to blaze a trail."

Chen Yan murmured.

He not only wants the path of Qi and blood to also give birth to a wisp of life-and-death aura when creating the realm.

He wants, even more, for Qi and blood and Horizontal Refining to merge into one.

He has already caused Qi and blood and Horizontal Refining to merge, transforming into a wisp of True Martial Power.

This wisp of True Martial Power is like kindling, and it will eventually completely subvert Qi and blood and Horizontal Refining.

Chen Yan sat cross-legged and began to evolve the 【Huanlan Mao Domain】.

From his body, Qi and blood overflowed, transforming into phantom images of a True Dragon, Black Tortoise, White Tiger, and others.

The origin space of the path of Qi and blood also began to shatter at this moment, changing and evolving into his own universe.

This process was incomparably smooth; this is a process that all Creation Realm martial artists will experience.

Time passed slowly.

While Chen Yan and his party were still marching, rushing toward the Kumeng Micheng.

Within the entire Purple Universe Settling Mirror.

Everyone's emotions began to change.

When the second day's sun set once again.

Everything had changed.

"He still isn't dead?"

"It's already been a whole day, and the second-level domain battle still hasn't ended?"

"Could it be that he hid from the very beginning, and Chi Xue hasn't found him until now?"

"That's possible, but Chi Xue wouldn't be that incompetent, right? How powerful is the tracking ability of an eighth-rank Ancient God Beast; would it let Chen Yan escape?"

"Hahaha, Chen Yan is still alive; perhaps Chen Yan can defeat the second-level domain!"

"Don't even think about it, that is an eighth-rank Ancient God Beast."

Voices of excitement or confusion and disbelief rang out in every quarter.

The Creation Realm experts of the five clans were even more extremely puzzled.

In their original predictions, Chen Yan wouldn't even be able to hold on for an hour.

The second-level domain battle would likely end in a very short amount of time.

But now, a full day has already ended.

The domain battle has still not ended.

Everyone had not expected what is happening now.

They could not imagine what Chen Yan's side had experienced to be able to persist for a day without dying.

Kumeng Micheng.

Inside a dilapidated room.

"It actually still hasn't ended."

The golden-haired Lu Wuyi frowned.

In the room, the other ten Creation Realm experts of the five clans also had varying expressions, with Lu Mingyuan and Lu Fukun notably among them.

"It should be just as we guessed; Chen Yan has hidden himself."

Lu Mingyuan spoke in a deep voice.

"Don't tell me he really managed to hide his way through it." Someone's expression was ugly.

"Chi Xue isn't that stupid, and an eighth-rank Ancient God Beast isn't that useless." Lu Wuyi said:

"No matter how Chen Yan hides, could an eighth-rank Ancient God Beast really not find him?"

As Lu Wuyi's voice fell, everyone's expressions eased slightly.

They had all placed bets that Chi Xue would win.

Although everyone knew he would definitely win, having it drag on was also incomparably uncomfortable.

Many people were even privately whispering that Chen Yan might win, things like that.

After all, Chen Yan had done too many unbelievable things.

But at this moment, Lu Wuyi's decisiveness still made everyone feel at ease.

"You may look down on Chen Yan, but you must never look down on an Eighth-Rank Ancient Divine Beast."

"Moreover..."

Lu Wuyi hesitated, but still spoke:

"Father once stated plainly that if Chi Xue does not die, he will certainly reach the Ninth Rank, and he even has the ability to wipe out the entire Great Xia."

"Father once warned me that if I ever had the chance, I must kill Chi Xue in private, otherwise I would be in danger."

Everyone was stunned, not expecting the Lord of Lu to hold Chi Xue in such high regard.

"Chi Xue is too mysterious; I have only met him a few times, and I already felt that the man is insane."

Lu Mingyuan let out a strange laugh, a trace of dread appearing in his eyes.

"Do not get too close to him; even I could potentially be played to death by him."

Lu Wuyi said calmly:

"With Chi Xue around, Chen Yan cannot win; the fact that Chi Xue can control a Level Two Domain already speaks volumes."

Lu Wuyi stood up and said:

"Chen Yan will undoubtedly die, and Great Xia will surely perish; what we truly need to worry about is Chi Xue, who has already mastered a Level Two Domain!"

As his voice fell, the gazes of Lu Mingyuan and the others constricted.

"Chi Xue's way of thinking is beyond the understanding of ordinary people; if he can control one Level Two Domain, he might just be able to control a second."

"Although we are allies, we must still be wary of him!"

Lu Wuyi's voice deepened:

"Jianxia has already begun to ascend to the Eighth Rank, and I must also go into seclusion; once I ascend to the Eighth Rank, our Lu Province will have one more point of winning."

Everyone nodded.

The Five Clans are a single entity.

At least in the eyes of the outside world, they are a single entity.

But the outside world has no idea that at this moment, what Lu Wuyi worries about most is not a Chen Yan who is certain to die.

It is instead a Chi Xue who already possesses a powerful force.
