183: The evil thoughts of a prodigy in the Feather Transformation Realm

The scope of his Domain, amidst this near-masochistic tempering, began to expand extremely slowly yet with incomparable determination!

One thousand one hundred meters... one thousand two hundred meters... one thousand five hundred meters!

Every meter of expansion required a massive amount of mental effort and Origin power, enduring unimaginable pain. But Lin Yuan's will was like a rock of Chaos, unwavering. He was immersed in a state of selflessness, forgetting time and the outside world, his eyes only on the Chaos Domain that was being constantly tempered and undergoing a transformative Rebirth.

Time was also distorted within the Primordial Chaos Realm. Lin Yuan felt as if several years had passed, but in the outside world, it might have only been a few hours.

Just as his Domain laboriously expanded to nearly two hundred zhang, and the Chaos Dao patterns on the Domain barrier became increasingly clear and stable, faintly emitting a prototype Concept capable of carrying all things and evolving life and death—

"Rumble—!"

Deep within the Primordial Chaos Realm, a torrent of Chaos, more violent and primitive than before, as if it could crush a galaxy, swept in without warning! This torrent was not simple pressure; it contained chaotic Law fragments, destructive space storms, and Chaos Evil Qi sufficient to corrode the Divine Soul!

"Not good!" Lin Yuan's heart shook violently. The intensity of this torrent far exceeded the limit his current Domain could withstand!

Almost at the instant the torrent hit him, his newly stabilized Domain barrier let out a tooth-grinding cracking sound, shattering inch by inch like fragile glass!

"Pfft—!" Lin Yuan spat out a large mouthful of blood again, his aura instantly becoming withered. The Domain was the core of his power; damage to the Domain was equivalent to his Origin being wounded!

At this critical moment!

"Buzz—!"

Deep within his Sea of Consciousness, the twelve-grade chaos green lotus, which had always been as stable as a mountain, suddenly erupted with an unprecedented brilliant green light! Its lotus leaves unfurled like a giant umbrella propping up the Chaos! A pillar of green light, refined to the extreme, followed the roots of the green lotus and was instantly injected into the Domain core that was on the verge of collapse!

Simultaneously, the verses of the Chaos Origin Scripture automatically rang out in the depths of Lin Yuan's Soul. Every rune seemed to come alive, turning into chains of order that forcibly organized and suppressed the chaotic Laws within the violent torrent pouring into the Domain!

"Hold steady for me!" Lin Yuan's eyes were bloodshot as he let out an unyielding roar! He poured all his will and all his power into it!

A miracle happened!

The Chaos torrent that was originally enough to destroy his Domain was actually forcibly held within the Domain under the suppression of the chaos green lotus's supreme Origin and the orderly organization of the Chaos Origin Scripture! The violent energy did not dissipate; instead, like a tamed wild horse, it was forcibly incorporated into the Domain's circulatory system!

Crack... Crackle... The cracked Domain barrier did not continue to collapse. Instead, after absorbing and fusing with the stabilized Chaos torrent, it began to self-repair at an astonishing speed! The newly born barrier was no longer a simple defensive shield; it now featured distorted patterns similar to the spatial turbulence of the Primordial Chaos Realm, becoming tougher and more inclusive, as if it could actively absorb and transform part of the Chaos pressure for its own use!

The scope of the Domain, borrowing this power of Fusion, suddenly expanded by a large margin!

Two thousand five hundred meters! Three thousand meters!

A brand new, even more majestic sense of power fed back from the Domain to Lin Yuan himself. His injuries quickly recovered under the nourishment of the Law of life and Chaos Qi, and his aura did not drop but instead rose, becoming deeper and more profound.

He successfully survived the impact of the first Chaos torrent! Not only did he not die, but he also gained a blessing from the disaster, and his Domain achieved a qualitative leap!

However, before Lin Yuan could rejoice, he suddenly caught a faint yet exceptionally powerful ripple of intent. This ripple carried a hint of inquiry, a hint of surprise, and a hint of... cold scrutiny. It came from the deeper, more dangerous core area at the edge of the Primordial Chaos Realm!

"Someone is here?!" Lin Yuan's heart tightened, his gaze shooting like lightning into the depths of the Chaos turbulence. Those who could Cultivate in such a place were definitely not ordinary! One of those three Feather Transformation Realm Prodigies? Or that Dharma Domain Realm Peak who was also pushing for the Feather Transformation Realm?

Lin Yuan clenched his fists, Battle Intent rising in his eyes. Instead of retreating, he actively adjusted his direction and took a step toward where the ripple of intent had come from!

Deep within the Primordial Chaos Realm, the violent turbulence and distorted space seemed to freeze for a moment. Lin Yuan's actively released sharp Battle Intent was like a giant stone thrown into a deep pool, stirring up a strong response!

"Eh?"

A soft sound of surprise, carrying a hint of unexpectedness, pierced through layers of Chaos turbulence and clearly entered Lin Yuan's Sea of Consciousness. Immediately after, an even more majestic and refined intent, carrying the clear aura of a Feather Transformation Realm Martial Artist, crashed down like an invisible mountain!

This intent was not a simple mental shock; it carried the pressure of Feathering Power! It was a power that had already transformed from illusory to real, perfectly fused with its master's will and strength, as if it were an extension of their own limbs! Its energy level far exceeded the Dharma Domain that Lin Yuan was currently struggling to expand!

Boom!

Lin Yuan's Chaos Domain, which had just expanded to three thousand meters and still bore the newborn Dao patterns, was struck as if by an invisible giant hammer, suddenly collapsing inward by dozens of zhang! The Domain barrier vibrated violently, letting out an overburdened wail. An irresistible force, containing a cold sense of order, attempted to directly crush his Domain's will!

"Feather Transformation Realm! It really is him!" Lin Yuan's heart sank. The Domain pressure carried by the other party's intent alone made him feel immense pressure. But the Battle Intent in his eyes blazed even brighter! The chaos green lotus buzzed in his Sea of Consciousness, the supreme war spirit phantom roared within the Domain, and the runes of the Chaos Origin Scripture flowed with brilliance deep within his Soul!

"Chaos is immortal, all Laws return to the source! Hold steady!" Lin Yuan roared, elevating his will to the limit. On the crumbling Domain barrier, the newborn Dao patterns that had fused with the spatial textures of the Primordial Chaos Realm suddenly lit up, twisting and writhing like living things, frantically absorbing the surrounding violent Chaos energy to resist! The green lotus phantom at the center of the Domain swayed gracefully, shedding layers of Chaos clear light to forcibly stabilize the core.

"Heh... interesting. A newcomer in the Dharma Domain Realm, and your Domain can actually withstand a sliver of the projection pressure from my 'Wings of the Azure Heaven'?" The owner of the cold intent seemed to have piqued his interest. The Chaos turbulence was forcibly parted like a curtain by an invisible force, and a figure slowly emerged.

The newcomer was slender and tall, dressed in a black battle robe with dark patterns flowing like a moving galaxy. His face was cold and his gaze sharp as a knife, as if it could cut through Chaos. He didn't deliberately emit light, but he naturally exuded a majesty that suppressed the Void Realm and was impervious to all Laws. As he stood there, the surrounding Chaos turbulence automatically calmed and moved aside, as if surrendering at his feet. He was exactly one of the three Feather Transformation Realm Prodigies mentioned by the White-Robed Examiner!
