When used together, they believed its power could trap, or even kill, any Infinite Dao cultivator.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was not a simple one plus one equals two.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was an enhancement of several times, even dozens of times.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately, they had chosen the wrong opponent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zimo was an invincible Infinite Dao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, his Primordial Edict of Absolute Annihilation wrapped itself around the blade’s edge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He dragged the long saber forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The void shattered. Everything seemed to face destruction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zimo slashed out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a thunderous boom, the void collapsed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The formation was torn open with a gaping crack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How is this possible?!” the five shouted in shock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They hurried to repair the formation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zimo slashed again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Primordial Edict of Absolute Annihilation seemed capable of annihilating everything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, an even larger hole opened in the formation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The five were already scrambling in panic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The cracks kept expanding. Finally, under Xu Zimo’s successive strikes, the formation could no longer hold and completely shattered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Run!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The instant the formation collapsed, the five reached a mutual understanding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They could not fight him. They were no match.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At times like this, retreat was the best strategy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Xu Zimo did not give them the chance to escape.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One slash split the heavens.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This single strike severed the heads of four of the five ancestors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The remaining one, Golden Sun Dao Lord, survived only because he was the strongest, already at the Infinite Dao realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He narrowly escaped death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Another one!” Xu Zimo shouted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He directly hurled the Shadow Tyrant saber from his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The long blade transformed into an endless saber aura.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was as if it cut a fissure straight through the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The skies thundered violently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At last, an insurmountable chasm appeared between heaven and earth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Shadow Tyrant fell, striking Golden Sun Dao Lord squarely in the chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It churned his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, the Primordial Edict of Absolute Annihilation twisted and destroyed everything he had, including his soul and yin-yang spirits. With a loud explosion, his entire body burst apart, flesh and blood flying everywhere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the disciples and higher-ups of Vast Ocean Dao Domain, seeing this scene made it feel as though the sky itself had collapsed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Am I dreaming?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The ancestors… all the ancestors are dead!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How is this possible? What kind of terrifying enemy did we provoke?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Voices of panic rang out everywhere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, some quick-witted people shouted, “What are you still standing around for? Run!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The ancestors are dead. We’re next!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The entire Vast Ocean Dao Domain fell into chaos.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zimo stepped through the air and stood in the heavens.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He sneered. “You think you can run? Under this sky, is there anywhere I cannot see?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He extended his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a loud boom, all the spirit energy for billions of miles surged toward him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The heavens rumbled again and again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the spirit energy destabilized, the beautiful mountains and rivers of Vast Ocean Dao Domain began to collapse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The spirit energy in Xu Zimo’s hand kept increasing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the end, it formed into a massive dragon millions of miles long.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was no ordinary dragon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A spirit energy dragon represented the very will of this land. It roared furiously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It even tried to destroy the very ground beneath it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The earth split open with countless cracks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The thunderous roars continued.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The cracks widened, deep pits appearing everywhere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many disciples could not escape and were buried alive by the collapsing ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The entire Vast Ocean Dao Domain was engulfed in a storm of destruction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Outside the sect, the disciples who had narrowly avoided disaster by not entering to participate in the competition all felt immense relief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Good thing we didn’t go in. Otherwise, we’d definitely be dead.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m just curious. What kind of force is this, to wipe out Vast Ocean Dao Domain so completely?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among the crowd, the stunningly beautiful young woman stared up at the True Martial Mountain in the sky, and at Xu Zimo’s figure standing in the heavens.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her gaze was full of longing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As if she wanted to carve every detail into her memory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Miss,” the maid named Ying’er said anxiously beside her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The outside world is too dangerous. Let’s go home quickly. With the master there, he’s enough to protect us for a lifetime of peace.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m not going back,” the woman, Meng Lili, said stubbornly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I want to cultivate.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But Vast Ocean Dao Domain has already been destroyed. Where are we supposed to learn now?” Ying’er said helplessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meng Lili puffed out her cheeks and pointed toward True Martial Mountain in the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What do you think about that place?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the spirit energy dragon roared, and as Xu Zimo continued to increase his power, this land finally could no longer bear it and fell completely into ruin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The earth became a vast grave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone was buried within it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was the founding land of Vast Ocean Dao Domain, and it also became their burial ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many were born here, and many died here.\u003C\u002Fp>",1310,"2026-06-06T01:07:29.137Z",1,"novelbin.me","cfe0e33ef4697780a0d75717f0f00b009fc1a9672741521486790140f7a6a2e1","i-really-am-a-villain-chapter-1717","i-really-am-a-villain-chapter-1715",1822,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-really-am-a-villain-cover.jpg"]
