186: Cosmic Venerable

The news of Tatuo's squad being completely wiped out was quickly transmitted back to the Meteorite Belt Alliance headquarters.

"What did you say! Tatuo is dead?"

Alliance leader Chi Tian sat up abruptly, his fists clenched tight. The veins on his forehead bulged, and steam evaporated from his body, causing the temperature in the room to rise by several hundred degrees instantly.

As a fellow trial-taker from the Yan Yan Galaxy, Chi Tian and Tatuo were as close as brothers.

The reason he was able to establish a firm foothold in this small alliance was inseparable from Tatuo's support.

If he didn't do something now, the morale of this alliance would surely disintegrate.

"Yes!"

"Pass down the order! Deploy the elite punitive force, and I will lead the expedition personally!"

Over a hundred streams of light shot into the sky, speeding in the direction He Ming had departed. Each stream emitted the powerful aura of the Stellar Level.

Among them were seven at the Ninth Stage Stellar Level, fifteen at the eighth stage, and the rest were all at the seventh stage.

This force was already considered top-tier on the first floor of the Star Tower.

Meanwhile.

He Ming was speeding through deep space with the other three, moving at the absolute limit of the Stellar Level.

An hour later, the vanguard of the pursuing troops behind them was about to catch up.

He Ming's eyes flashed with starlight as he glanced behind him. At this rate, they would be caught in another ten minutes.

Wan Xingying also sensed the pursuers behind them and said urgently, "What do we do? At this rate, we're going to be caught."

Haina said anxiously, "How about we split up?"

Sanchis chimed in, "I agree with Haina's suggestion. Only by splitting up do we have a sliver of a chance to escape pursuit."

He Ming suddenly stopped and sneered, "No need."

Being chased by a group of Stellar Level cultivators had already ignited a fire of anger in his heart.

If he hadn't been afraid of attracting the attention of the Human Alliance observers, he would have long since taken action to suppress the entire Meteorite Belt faction and collect them into the imperial seal of china.

Chi Tian was in hot pursuit behind them. Seeing the four people ahead stop suddenly, his heart skipped a beat.

Why aren't they running anymore?

Could it be that the four of them are confident they can confront seven Ninth Stage Stellar Level cultivators?

Upon closer thought, Chi Tian put his worries aside.

He himself was a peak Stellar Level existence.

Beside him were two late-stage Ninth Stage Stellar Level helpers.

Three mid-stage Ninth Stage Stellar Level cultivators.

One early-stage Ninth Stage Stellar Level cultivator.

With such strength, they were enough to walk sideways across the first floor of the Star Tower Trial grounds.

Unless they encountered a monstrous existence that had successfully broken through to the Domain Lord Level.

But he didn't think his luck was bad enough for that.

If the other party had truly reached the Domain Lord Level, there would be absolutely no need to run.

The two sides met, forming a standoff.

Chi Tian stepped forward, his gaze sweeping over the four people opposite him, and he sneered inwardly.

The strongest one was only at the late Ninth Stage Stellar Level, and the other three hadn't even reached the Ninth Stage Stellar Level.

"Kid, blood debts must be paid in blood."

He Ming sneered, "Are you in such a rush to deliver yourselves?"

The imperial seal of china suddenly appeared in his palm. With a shift of his intention, the space was completely locked down.

Huh!

Chi Tian wanted to make a move immediately but discovered that he couldn't move at all!

The six people beside him also realized something was wrong. Space had been completely locked down—this was a method of the Domain Lord Level!

"Not good!"

"It's a Domain Lord Level!"

The corners of Chi Tian's mouth twitched uncontrollably. His heart turned icy, and his face gradually turned deathly pale, devoid of all color.

Did he really run into this extremely small probability?

The trial has only been going on for three years; how could a Domain Lord Level appear?

This record-breaking feat could probably rank in the top ten in human history, right!?

It's over...

"Since you've come, don't bother leaving."

As his words fell, fourteen Golden Dragons of Fortune flew out from the imperial seal of china, sucking the seven Ninth Stage Stellar Level cultivators into the inner universe.

After finishing all this, He Ming didn't even look back and continued on his way with the three others.

Wan Xingying was fine, as she knew He Ming possessed Domain Lord Level strength.

Haina and Sanchis, however, were completely dumbfounded. They stared at He Ming's back in disbelief, shivering in their hearts.

To be able to instantly suppress seven Ninth Stage Stellar Level cultivators—this strength, I'm afraid, has already reached the Domain Lord Level!!

Especially Haina; he knew Wang Chao and had even played cards and bragged with him at the gambling table.

In his perception, Wang Chao was just a Star Level One, a small galaxy governor with terrible gambling habits and even worse character.

How much time has passed since then?

Why has this world become so crazy!

Eastern Universe.

Supreme God Temple.

"Domain Lord Level energy fluctuations detected!"

This sentence immediately caught the attention of the Cosmic Venerable currently patrolling the Supreme God Temple—Qing Ming.

He instantly arrived behind that observer and asked urgently, "What is going on?"

The observer adjusted the instrument in his hand, and a screen appeared.

Seven Ninth Stage Stellar Level trial-takers were instantly suppressed, space was sealed, and they were immediately sucked into a jade object.

Qing Ming's pupils dilated, his gaze sharp.

"That's right, space was locked. This is a Domain Lord Level method."

The next moment.

Three figures tore through the space crack and appeared beside Qing Ming.

Venerable Chi Tian, Venerable Bai Hua, and Venerable Xuan Ming.

The footage was played repeatedly.

"Interesting. The first little doll to break through to the Domain Lord Level has appeared."

Venerable Bai Hua said coldly, "Trace the origins. I want all the activity records of this person."

"Yes!"

The observer operated quickly, and footage spanning three years and ten days was retrieved.

Following a series of subsequent operations...

Everything from the moment He Ming and Wan Xingying entered the trial grounds to their encounter with the others was specially marked and edited together.

When the video finished playing.

The four big shots present had different expressions, but the light in their eyes grew brighter and brighter.

Venerable Chi Tian crossed his arms, "Interesting. He clearly has the strength to suppress the entire field, yet he chooses to flee."

Venerable Qing Ming: "Is this kid afraid of being targeted by us?"

Venerable Bai Hua: "I'm afraid so."

Venerable Xuan Ming clapped his hands and laughed, "Too interesting. The other little dolls are all trying their best to show off their methods just to get our attention."

"He, on the other hand, is very composed."

Venerable Chi Tian looked at the imperial seal of china in the video and said calmly, "It seems he is very aware of the principle that 'holding a treasure is a crime'. That jade seal is indeed peculiar; it should be the key that helped him quickly break through to the Domain Lord Level."

Venerable Bai Hua had a cold expression and spoke softly, "Such a temperament is truly rare."

Venerable Xuan Ming shook his head and sighed, "Is a mere Domain Lord Level treasure worth our interest? This little doll is cautiously cute."

Venerable Qing Ming: "Knowing how to hide one's talent is a good thing."

"By the way, where does this little guy's breakthrough speed rank in human history?"

The observer quickly brought up a list.

[First: Seven months to break through to Domain Lord, Thousand Jin]

[Second: Two years and three months, Bai Hua]

...

[Tenth: Three years and ten days, Wang Chao]

In human history, the fastest person to promote to the Domain Lord Level in the Star Tower Trial secret realm was Thousand Jin, who is also the current leader of the Human Alliance.

The second place, Bai Hua, is currently at the Universe Venerable level and is recognized as the number one monster in the Human Alliance, hailed as the successor to Thousand Jin.

Those who can rank in the top ten are now, at the very least, at the Universe Venerable level.

The four Universe Venerable level individuals suddenly fell silent, looking at each other.

In the air, faint law fluctuations appeared, colliding with each other and forming ripples.

Venerable Qing Ming: "This little guy has excellent aptitude and is suitable for the Sword Dao; he should enter my sect."

Venerable Chi Tian: "You're talking nonsense! Look at how cautious he is; he doesn't walk the path of the Sword Dao at all. He is clearly a good seedling for body refining."

Venerable Bai Hua snorted coldly. Although he didn't speak, his aura refused to give way in the slightest.

Venerable Xuan Ming laughed loudly, "Stop arguing, everyone. This child's cautious nature is most like mine; only I can train him into a talent."
