Chapter 219: Escape and Depart

Lord of Yunfu said it would explode right away!

A huge jet‑black round orb appeared above his head, spinning smoothly, even the space‑time of this Qingfeng Realm Inner Domain twisted slightly, and an invisible force quietly spread outward.

Boom~

Zhou Yang only felt his consciousness tremble slightly.

Just a moment ago he was still battling that Lord of Yunfu, but in the next instant he suddenly fell into another scene.

In front of him was a modest‑sized dormitory, with four bunk beds of iron frames lining both sides, and he was lying on the upper bunk near the doorway.

"Old Zhou, Old Zhou, come on, hurry up, we're about to be late! You damn it said just five more minutes, why can't you wake up!"

A short‑haired boy wearing black‑rimmed glasses, looking a bit childish, stretched out his arm and slapped his shoulder vigorously.

"Eh, Brother Guang? Is this a high‑school dorm?" Zhou Yang was slightly surprised.

The short‑haired boy, seeing he finally woke up, hurriedly urged: "Hurry up, big brother, we've been late for several days in a row, I don't want to be punished by Brother Gang again!"

"Late. Punishment standing."

Zhou Yang murmured softly, a faint smile appearing on his face, "What an ancient phrase indeed."

"Damn, what's with your ink stain, hurry up!"

The short‑haired boy, seeing he still hadn't moved, anxiously shouted.

Zhou Yang looked at the boy, and gently smiled while shaking his head:

"Hehe, Brother Guang, didn't expect to still see you, Lord of Yunfu actually…"

Yuan Guang, Zhou Yang's close friend from high school on Earth in his past life, had dug pits together, served standing punishments together, climbed walls together, surfed the net together, and often used his own allowance to help Zhou Yang. After graduation they each got busy with livelihoods, and their contact gradually dwindled.

Later, after Zhou Yang himself transmigrated to another world, he didn't even know how Yuan Guang was doing. "What are you talking about? What… what master?"

The boy was startled by the words.

Zhou Yang simply shook his head silently, his gaze gradually becoming bright and fierce, as if an invisible flame burned fiercely.

Under his stare, first the short‑haired boy, then the entire dormitory, even the whole world gradually melted. "Huh~"

The whole world was completely erased from his mind, and Zhou Yang's consciousness returned! With just a lift of his head, he saw a massive Green Palace almost reaching his own head.

At this moment the Green Palace's main doors were fully opened, an extremely powerful sucking force erupted with a roar, pulling Zhou Yang's body toward the dim great hall.

This is a top‑tier Palace‑type Supreme Treasure of the Lord of Yunfu, the "Bi Yuan Palace", also a Palace‑type Supreme Treasure dedicated to "Suppression Seal". Even a Fifth‑Order Universe Lord, once trapped inside, could not escape by his own power! "Buzz~"

The Green Palace kept sucking, and because Zhou Yang had briefly lost consciousness, the Jianhe Luo's Sword Light Domain lost Zhou Yang's control and could not resist this sucking force.

"Hehe, Lord of Yunfu's powerful illusion attack instantly pulled my consciousness into an illusion realm."

However, as Zhou Yang's consciousness returned, a mighty New Universe Space‑Time Power remerged into the Jianhe Luo domain, and the endless Sword Light Domain instantly revived!

Sss~~~

One black Divine Sword after another generated wave after wave of endless sword light, continuously striking the Green Palace, actually flinging the palace straight out!

"Hm? How did you wake up so fast! This is a world I created using the Illusion Realm Pearl, almost like a real world; even the Universe Strongest with a wavering will would be slightly affected!"

In the distance, the Lord of Yunfu's four faces all showed surprised confusion.

The jet‑black orb above his head, called the "Illusion Realm Pearl", was the most precious Supreme Treasure he had collected over dozens of Reincarnation Era cycles.

Although the Illusion Realm Pearl itself is only a Peak Supreme Treasure, it is an extremely rare "Illusion Attack‑type" Peak Supreme Treasure; in rarity and power it even surpasses ordinary Peak Soul‑type Supreme Treasures! Inside the Illusion Realm Pearl a near‑real world is nurtured; as long as a sliver of the enemy's mind is drawn in, this world automatically expands from the opponent's memory fragments into a world familiar to them.

Because it is derived from the opponent's memories, this world is perfected to near flawlessness, making it extremely hard to escape even when aware one is in an illusion.

When the Lord of Yunfu uses this Supreme Treasure with his Fifth‑Order Top‑tier strength, even a Universe Strongest with a wavering will would be slightly affected! "He escaped so quickly; his willpower must be comparable to a slightly weaker Universe Strongest!"

The Lord of Yunfu sighed inwardly, but his hand kept moving.

"Dongyang, strike together!"

The Lord of Yunfu let out a low roar, and a black spear‑like projectile burst from his hand; this is also a Peak Mind Force Weapon Supreme Treasure, its power also extremely great! "Sss~"

The black spear whistled, nearly tearing apart the heavily stagnant space of this Qingfeng Realm Inner Domain.

A black line surfaced within this Route—

The black spear, at its ultimate speed, instantly appeared before Zhou Yang.

"Creation!"

Zhou Yang let out a low roar, a hazy greenish light gathered on his right palm, forming a special green light domain around his hand.

He raised his palm and grabbed at the black spear! "Sss sss sss~~~"

The black spear first contacted the green light domain between Zhou Yang's palm, and a mysterious energy quickly wound and seeped into the spear's interior.

When the Lord of Yunfu's divine power controlling the black spear first met this mysterious energy, he felt a surge of vigorous vitality entering the depths of his consciousness, making his divine power feel slightly more active.

However, he soon realized something was wrong! Beneath that vigorous vitality seemed an illusion; he consciously felt his divine power becoming more active and pure, yet in reality the divine power attached to the black spear was constantly collapsing, dissolving, even the slightest life imprint on the divine power was rapidly vanishing. In the end, more than half of the divine power on the black spear had dispersed, and its potency naturally diminished greatly.

Bang!

The black spear clashed with Zhou Yang's palm, yet it didn't even reach the Reincarnation Divine Armor's limit of endurance; although it shook Zhou Yang back, the spear itself was swept away by his palm.

During the ten‑plus years Zhou Yang spent traveling, his many doppelgangers were never idle, constantly researching and cultivating within the New Universe space accelerated to nearly ten‑thousand‑times speed.

While over a decade passed in the outside world, those doppelgangers had already cultivated for tens of thousands of years, how could there be no gain! "Creation"—the greenish light covering his palm—is a technique he derived from pondering the "Life Record", a move of "Universe Master's Strongest Secret Method" level!

Now the truly powerful opportunities Zhou Yang possesses include the New Universe cultivated from "Stellar Transformations", the Chaos Secret Pattern left by the hermit, and the "Life Record" modified by Meteor Tears; previously Zhou Yang merely passively imprinted parts of its secret patterns onto his body, which could continuously advance his life level.

Now, with deeper research, countless insights continuously surge in his mind.

In his perception, this "Life Record" seems to contain an ultimate "Dao", a "Way of Life"! Zhou Yang, having only skimmed the surface, already grasped a form of the "Universe Master's Strongest Secret Method", its mysterious profundity evident. The light of Creation, using endless vitality to directly dismantle the opponent's divine power from the life level, achieved a feat on its first use, even weakening more than half of the Lord of Yunfu's strongest Fusion Secret Method in a single strike!

"Lord of Reincarnation, take my staff!"

When the Lord of Yunfu struck, the Lord of Dongyang also acted; at this moment he held a black‑gold staff with both hands, his arm muscles bulging, and he slammed it down hard toward Zhou Yang's head!

"Hmph, Lord of Dongyang, you even dare strike me!"

Zhou Yang let out a cold snort, black light spreading on his other palm, directly blocking the black‑gold staff!

This move, called "Destruction", is an evolution of his Strongest Talent Secret Art "Light of Annihilation", also a Universe Master‑level strongest secret method.

Unlike "Creation", this move seeks ultimate explosion and annihilation! "Bang!"

The Lord of Dongyang's black‑gold long staff seemed to collide with the massive, high‑speed flying mountain‑stone celestial body outside the Qingfeng Realm, a powerful force accompanied by endless Annihilation aura rippled toward him, shaking him back step by step, and the Supreme Treasure long staff in his hand almost flew out of his grasp!

The Lord of Dongyang is a Fourth-Order Peak Universe Lord, so his performance is naturally a bit inadequate.

Zhou Yang was about to give chase, but suddenly sensed something.

He ceased the entanglement; the New Universe Space-Time Power and the Original Universe Space-Time Power simultaneously infused the Sword River Luo, causing the Sword Light Domain's potency to surge continuously, almost instantly rising to a level comparable to a Peak Domain-Type Supreme Treasure.

At the same time, six black Divine Swords kept drifting, bearing endless sword light that rapidly coalesced into a single enormous, dazzling golden light long sword! "Go!"

Zhou Yang raised his hand and pointed; the golden light long sword shot forward at high speed, directly tearing a huge gap in the Lord of Yunfu's blue Light Curtain domain.

Zhou Yang's figure did not linger at all, carrying endless sword light as he surged past in an instant.

"Ha ha, Lord of Yunfu, Lord of Dongyang, I still have to rush to find treasure, so I won't keep you two any longer; we'll continue when fate allows!"

Zhou Yang first used the surged Sword Light Domain to suppress the speed of the two lords, and after creating distance, he shifted his intention, instantly withdrawing the domain and racing away even faster.

The Lord of Yunfu and the Lord of Dongyang did not give chase; they waited in place for a short while.

Moments after Zhou Yang's departure, a Golden Ancient Ship sped toward them.
