He raised both hands and shouted, “Raise the sails, set off!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a thunderous rumble, the fleet came alive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hundred ships surged forward together, cutting through the foaming, endless waters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sea stretched vast and boundless, the sky reflected upon its surface. The pale, bubbling waves churned as though the ocean were boiling, murmuring with a deep, endless gurgle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After departing the harbor, the fleet split into four directions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Each of the Six Sovereigns led a squadron to search their assigned area.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zimo traveled aboard one vessel with Qin Haoshi and Literature Sovereign.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the voyage steadied, Literature Sovereign approached Xu Zimo with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sir Xu,” he said, “are you prepared?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m always ready,” Xu Zimo replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Literature Sovereign sat down beside him on the deck. “Tell me,” he asked, “does your Primordial Domain still have others alive?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No,” Xu Zimo answered calmly. “Our lineage passes through a single successor each generation. When the Gatekeeper of the previous age nears death, he chooses the next.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I see,” said Literature Sovereign. “And how old might you be, if I may ask?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Three hundred,” Xu Zimo said casually.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If fate allows,” Literature Sovereign continued with a chuckle, “could you one day take me to see the Primordial Domain?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zimo smiled faintly. “So that’s your true purpose in asking so much, isn’t it?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Literature Sovereign only smiled, saying nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Six Sovereigns were among the strongest mortals alive, all at the God Meridian Realm. Once, they’d taken pride in their strength, believing themselves invincible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the emergence of Chaos had shattered that illusion. Before such a being, even they seemed like frogs in a well, small, blind, and ignorant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A deep sense of dread had been growing in their hearts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet cultivation was never a matter to rush. It required time, patience, and understanding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, if Literature Sovereign wished to advance further, he had no choice but to seek another path, and his eyes had turned toward the mysteries of the Primordial Domain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“When the time comes,” Xu Zimo said, “I’ll take you there. Whether you find opportunity or not will depend on your own fortune.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then I thank you,” Wen said with a warm smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Literature Sovereign left, Xu Zimo gave a quiet, amused laugh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Days passed as the fleet sailed steadily eastward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One morning, a thick fog rose from the surface of the Northern Sea.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The mist was so dense that visibility dropped to only a few dozen meters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ships drifted forward blindly, groping through the white void.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, boom!, a loud crash echoed from the front.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What happened?” Qin Haoshi demanded, frowning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It seems we’ve hit a reef!” someone shouted back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moments later, exclamations rang from the lead ship.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The Dao-Slaying Mountain!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“City Lord, come look, we’ve found it!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shouts of excitement rippled through the fleet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Haoshi’s eyes narrowed; he sprang into the air and flew toward the prow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Come, Sir Xu,” Literature Sovereign said with a grin. “Let’s take a look.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was far more courteous now, after all, his hopes of reaching the Primordial Domain rested entirely on Xu Zimo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When they reached the bow, their sight pierced the veil of fog, and there it was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A mountain towered before them, so tall it seemed to pierce the heavens.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn’t rooted to the seabed but floated upon the waves, drifting slowly with the current.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its slopes were steep, its cliffs jagged and sharp as blades.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The formation resembled five great fingers, five peaks of different heights, each rising from the same base.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even before they landed, an overwhelming sword intent, no, blade intent, filled the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It swept in invisible waves, slicing through the mist, rippling the very fabric of space.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The pressure was so intense that most dared not lift their eyes; it felt as though the invisible edges would stab through their vision itself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What kind of divine weapon could radiate such force?” Qin Haoshi murmured in awe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Indeed,” Literature Sovereign agreed. “The blade itself has yet to appear, yet its presence already reigns over the heavens.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Before today,” he added, “I doubted whether one sword alone could match that monster. But now, now I believe it can.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Should we climb?” someone asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Not yet,” Literature Sovereign replied. “We’ll wait until everyone’s gathered. And we still haven’t seen the monster, best to stay cautious.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone nodded in agreement. They disembarked and made camp at the mountain’s base.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Haoshi raised a signal flare. The bright fireworks burst into the air, brilliant even under the daylight, before scattering into five-colored sparks that lingered in the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Once they see that, the others will come,” Qin said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Within minutes, distant ships began converging toward them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hundreds of figures rose into the air, flying to join them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Found it, have you?” boomed Golden Sovereign’s voice as he arrived.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“And where’s the monster?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Haven’t seen it,” Literature Sovereign answered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Who cares?” Golden Sovereign roared. “Let’s climb!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Patience,” Qin Haoshi said. “We should be-”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before he could finish, the entire mountain began to shake violently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rocks tumbled from the cliffs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Out at sea, titanic waves rose like walls, crashing toward the shore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The roar of the ocean grew deafening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Explosions thundered across the waters as the shockwaves hit, the fleet’s ships shattered into splinters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Watch out!” Qin Haoshi shouted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the waves and debris slammed into them, several cultivators were struck and killed instantly, their bodies impaled or crushed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then came the roar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A low, guttural rumble at first, then louder, stronger, until it became a roar that split the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s the monster!” someone cried in terror.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Afraid of what?” Golden Sovereign barked, stepping into the air. He glared down at the surging sea and bellowed, “Monster, come out and die!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At his words, the ocean spiraled into a massive whirlpool, deep and endless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From its heart rose the colossal form of Chaos, its arrival shattering heaven and earth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lightning fell in torrents. Waves rolled higher than mountains, crushing everything beneath them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Humans,” the voice of Chaos thundered, “leave the mountain, or be destroyed!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sir Xu,” Literature Sovereign said urgently, turning to him. “Go for the God Blade. We’ll hold it back!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ll leave it to you,” Xu Zimo nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a single stride, he shot forward, racing toward the peak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Chaos let out a furious roar and charged at the group.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Block it!” shouted Literature Sovereign.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Six Sovereigns led the formation, hundreds of cultivators aligning their energy into a single grand array to stand between Xu Zimo and the monster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The battle erupted with earth-shaking explosions.\u003C\u002Fp>",1162,"2026-06-06T01:07:11.738Z",1,"novelbin.me","b61a307e6152ca0e0dd3370b1815db6590a8fee6bd62785e01de4958b9269bf8","i-really-am-a-villain-chapter-1200","i-really-am-a-villain-chapter-1198",1822,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-really-am-a-villain-cover.jpg"]
