The Protagonists' Chat Group: Beyond the Boundaries — Chapter 382

Chapter 382: A Single Battle Levels the Foreign Realm, Shaking the World!

Kun Di’s severed half-body fled into the distant void. His fragmented Primordial Spirit imprints frantically tried to merge and become one again, desperately attempting to restore his colossal, immortal body.

This immediate, instinctive reaction was rooted in the cosmic truth that an Immortal King’s Divine Soul was eternally powerful and supposedly indestructible.

However, the subsequent, terrifying display cruelly and absolutely shattered his desperate hopes.

Shi Jian gently waved his hand, a movement of casual, world-ending power. An incredibly brilliant, annihilating light—not simple fire, but the power of the refined Destiny Devourer—fell directly upon Kun Di’s escaping Primordial Spirit imprint.

The imprint, which was said to be absolutely indestructible, disintegrated instantly and then violently exploded into nothingness.

Kun Di’s body and spirit were annihilated in that moment, his remaining flesh burned to ashes, and his Primordial Spirit shattered into a rain of ethereal light, which was then incinerated by a profound, spiritual fire. Endless, raging, seven-colored flames swept across this desolate Universe!

The heavens and earth shook with the weight of this monumental death. Such a sight was too astonishing and too terrifying for any witness to comprehend.

An immortal giant, a ruler of eras, was killed and completely erased from existence in such a casual, effortless manner.

“Did he Breakthrough the King Realm and ascend beyond us?!”

The remaining Immortal Kings and the dark Fallen Immortal Kings went utterly mad upon seeing this complete annihilation!

Shi Jian’s performance was truly terrifying, as if he had broken an unprecedented myth of the cosmos, looking down upon eons and surpassing all existing Kings.

To annihilate an Immortal King giant—a being defined by immortality—with a mere flick of his hand: who, from ancient times to the rumored future, possessed such crushing, absolute combat power?

Perhaps only the legendary Immortal Emperor could achieve such a feat with such ease!

Countless terrifying existences across the World Sea were instantly filled with dread and existential horror.

When did such an absolute master appear in this world? One who broke all cosmic balance from ancient times to the rumored future, whose power surpassed the King level, and who could effortlessly sweep aside all existing forces?

Such a formidable figure—there would be no suspense in fighting him; anyone who faced him was destined to die, destined to be utterly defeated!

“Kill!”

Several remaining giant-level figures made their desperate, last-ditch move, unleashing their most powerful hidden techniques without any reservation.

The surrounding Fallen Immortal Kings and the last Immortal Kings did likewise, joining the suicidal attack. They moved like madmen, uniting their strength.

They tried their absolute best to hunt down Shi Jian and end him before he could grow further!

Shi Jian had just refined so much of the slain Immortal Kings’ essence directly in front of them; they naturally couldn’t fail to realize Shi Jian’s core intention.

To Cultivate by consuming the Immortal King essence—this person was a terrifying, profound monster. All remaining Immortal Kings, Fallen Kings, and their kin were his inevitable targets.

The key was the sheer, suffocating strength he displayed. If they didn’t fight desperately now, while there were still many of them left, to seize even a glimmer of hope, they knew their fate.

Even if they ran now, they would only be hunted down and defeated one by one by Shi Jian in the near future. When he finally dominated the world, no one would be able to truly contend with him.

This was absolutely an existential calamity that must be stopped!

So, the massive group of high-level beings attacked desperately, like cornered animals driven to absolute madness.

Facing such a chaotic scene, Shi Jian remained supremely unhurried, his expression calm. His current, perfected strength was simply too great; he feared no number of Immortal Kings!

What’s more, he Cultivated the God Elephant Suppressing Prison Realm!

This unique Cultivation Technique feared group attacks the least. As long as the enemy’s combined attacks did not exceed his absolute upper limit of defensive power, he could continue to fight forever, his reserves inexhaustible!

Pfft!

Another Immortal King was violently split open by his casual strike, turning into a colossal shower of blood and fragmented spiritual light that violently stained the Universe starry sky.

Shi Jian stepped out again, and the various destructive secret arts conjured by a giant from the World Sea instantly disintegrated before they could reach him, forcing the giant to retreat, their physical body cracking from the sheer power difference!

He was utterly invincible, directly charging into the very midst of the remaining Immortal Kings and Fallen Immortal Kings, causing that desperate group to bleed across the shattered starry sky in droves.

With a single lift of his hand, the entire surrounding starry sky was covered by his immense, shadow-casting power. He covered the sky with one hand and slammed it down fiercely. Nothing was unbroken, nothing was indestructible; nothing possessed the strength to stop his imperial will.

One Immortal King after another exploded into a mist of blood and bone.

“This person is already clearly close to an Immortal Emperor! He is invincible under heaven! We are definitively not his match!”

Among the powerful Immortal Kings who had arrived later from the deeper World Sea, someone shouted this crushing realization. They dared not make another move and immediately turned their colossal body to flee.

“Where do you think you’re going?”

Shi Jian snorted coldly, his body soaring through the air with unimaginable speed. The heavens and the Universe could not possibly restrain his movement. Behind him, a massive, imposing three-headed, 6-armed Dharma Idol appeared, radiating chaotic majesty!

One Nether God’s Spear after another materialized in the hands of the towering Dharma Idol.

The next moment, the Nether God’s Spears were thrown out with devastating precision. The heavens and earth lost their color as the ultimate weapons streaked through the void!

Those fleeing Immortal Kings and Fallen Immortal Kings despaired. They fought back with all their remaining might, but the gap between the two sides was simply too vast to overcome.

They were instantly suppressed and slain by the barrage of spears!

The Immortal Kings of the Foreign Realm who were present also prepared to flee immediately upon seeing this utter slaughter. They knew that at this moment, the general situation was irreversibly lost.

No one could stop Shi Jian’s inevitable steps anymore.

“Myriad Law Immortal King, do not be so arrogant in your victory!”

“I will fight you! I will be the one to cover their retreat!”

The Wushang Devil King looked at the remaining fleeing Immortal Kings, snorted coldly, and then, with profound bravery, charged out to face Shi Jian alone.

Now, among the high-level Immortal King giants of the Foreign Realm, he was almost the only one left to shoulder the burden! Kun Di had just been killed. The Pum Devil King had been killed by Yang Qi during the great battle at the Imperial Pass.

Now, the only one left to shoulder the immense burden in the Foreign Realm was him, the powerful Wushang Devil King!

He possessed great, tragic spirit, fully intending to cover their retreat and create a desperate opportunity for the other Immortal Kings to withdraw to safety!

A massive bronze halberd in his hand pointed directly at Shi Jian, then was fiercely chopped down with world-shattering force.

Crack!

The halberd was effortlessly seized by Shi Jian, and then instantly crushed into metal dust in his bare hand!

The Wushang Devil King simply abandoned his weapon and let out a loud, defiance-filled roar. He carried immense arrogance and brilliant divine splendor, believing his divine power to be unparalleled and peerless. His war cry echoed: “Immune to all laws! Your Divine Abilities are but worthless dirt to me!”

The Wushang Devil King knew that covering the retreat would surely be more ominous than auspicious. However, he still attacked, driven by an unyielding spirit. This was the profound belief and inherent pride of an immortal giant.

His clan’s unique, terrifying ability was immunity to most forms of magic, making him unparalleled in specific duels. Many lower King-level giants found him troublesome and helpless against his total law immunity. Some strong individuals feared nothing more than a duel with the Wushang Devil King.

However, at this critical moment, this supreme Divine Ability could not change his devastating fate.

Immunity to all laws was only a relative, limited power.

Back then, the Wushang Devil King was unable to completely negate Fang Han’s top-tier Divine Abilities. Now, facing the ultimate, perfected power of Shi Jian, how much could he possibly immune? The so-called magic immunity had virtually no effect on Shi Jian’s reality-breaking power.

“You possess some commendable guts and spirit…”

Shi Jian’s eyes flashed with a hint of genuine appreciation upon seeing this valiant, doomed charge.

“Only a proud person like you, dying by my hand, would not sully my supreme hands!”

He formed a flawless fist seal, channeling boundless, perfected power, and punched out. The resulting force caused the heavens and earth to collapse and the entire Universe to be instantly pierced through!

The Wushang Devil King’s arms and chest were violently pierced by Shi Jian’s strike, bleeding profusely. It was a terrifying and shocking display of crushing force.

The Wushang Devil King coughed up blood but laughed loudly, the brilliance on his face undiminished by the fatal blow.

But his entire being was dissipating, the power leaving him. Little by little, he became ethereal, then dissolved into a shimmering rain of light that scattered into the void!

The Wushang Devil King fell, just like that, killed, his legacy ending with a roar of defiance.

Shi Jian stepped forward, wind and thunder accompanying his every stride, his Aura shaking the heavens and earth, looking every bit like an absolute Emperor descending to judge the world!

He did not pause but charged towards the other beings who were desperately landing from the World Sea region.

“After this day, who will dare to claim absolute supremacy in the three realms?”

A giant from the Immortal Realm spoke in awe from afar, his voice heavy with reverence.

“The Myriad Law Immortal King has killed until no one in the world dares to claim supremacy against him!”

Shi Ziling (Stone King), who had arrived to witness the aftermath of the battle, also praised his son, the shock palpable in his voice.

When he had first learned that Shi Jian was going to hunt the Immortal Kings in the dangerous World Sea, his heart was incredibly shaken with worry. Now, seeing Shi Jian cut through so many Immortal Kings and Fallen Immortal Kings, the profound shock in his heart was even greater!

Shi Hao felt a strange, profound sensation in his heart after hearing what Stone King said. Myriad Law Immortal King, killing until no one in the world dares to claim supremacy? Is this really the truth?

Shi Jian rose in this manner, forcefully killing until the remaining Immortal Kings fled, the Fallen Immortal Kings retreated in terror, and the enemies from all sides were completely defeated!

Hundreds of combined Immortal Kings and Fallen Immortal Kings besieged him alone, yet they were utterly defeated by him, with only a few—the weakest—escaping.

This mercy was also because these few were not strong among the Immortal Kings, and Shi Jian was too lazy to bother with such small, time-consuming gains, which was why he let them off. Otherwise, hundreds of Immortal Kings and Fallen Immortal Kings would have been annihilated here.

Such a battle record was completely unprecedented and would be immortalized forever.

A single, cataclysmic battle shook the known world, its glory illuminating ancient and modern times!

One man swept aside all enemies under heaven, having no opponent, killing until hundreds of Immortal Kings and Fallen Immortal Kings were defeated and fled to the distant, dark edges of the Universe!

What kind of profound myth was this?

The Myriad Law Immortal King… What true level had he finally reached? Had he secretly become an Emperor?

This was the collective confusion of every being across the Myriad Realms.

The Realm Shi Jian displayed on the surface was still only True Immortal. But no one believed he was simply a True Immortal. Whose True Immortal could be so utterly invincible in the Immortal King Realm? The leap between the two levels was simply too vast to comprehend.

Had he already become an Emperor? Or was he merely close to that legendary Domain? Countless people had countless conjectures and theories.

Having killed hundreds of Immortal Kings and Fallen Immortal Kings in one go, Shi Jian roamed between heaven and earth, standing proudly in the shattered Void Realm.

Endless auspicious rays surged toward him in tribute! The ultimate Dao runes blossomed around his figure. Infinite auspicious colors flowed from his body!

The name of Myriad Law completely shook the world; no one was unaware, no one was ignorant of his absolute power. Such a battle record was truly too glorious.

He was like ten suns soaring across the sky, illuminating the entire world with his terrifying brilliance!

“Has he become an Emperor?!”

“I don’t know, but no matter what, he is already invincible under heaven, becoming a supreme forbidden master, shaking ancient and modern times!”

Countless people sighed in awe. They didn’t know if Shi Jian had truly become an Emperor. But they knew very well that from now on, this world would probably be Shi Jian’s world to command and rule.

Shi Jian stood in the Void Realm, carefully sensing the immense gains from this time’s blood harvest.

Hundreds of Immortal Kings and Fallen Immortal Kings… Their combined essence surged towards him like dense, vital wolf smoke, a resource that defied comprehension.

“This time, I will definitely be able to successfully Breakthrough the Immortal King Realm…”

“Even the profound God Elephant Suppressing Prison Realm can advance further, nearing a new epoch of power!”

After the Wheel of Destiny was fully cultivated, one could then Cultivate the next-level technique: the Gospel of the Dominator.

The Gospel of the Dominator is a unique Divine Ability where the caster’s words become law, relying heavily on the immense Power Of Faith to twist the fate of others, using the unique Void Realm dimension’s fate ability to cause terrifying, irreversible consequences with just a thought.

Shi Jian could now initially use the Gospel of the Dominator, which was a powerful supplementary skill package that perfectly integrated with the Wheel of Destiny.

Now, Shi Jian was preparing to Cultivate the powerful Life and Death Illusion Extinction Thunder Law.

[Inorin’s Note: The Life and Death Illusion Extinction Thunder Law is a primordial thunder technique that can both destroy the universe (Extinction) and give birth to all things (Life), representing the ultimate law of existence and non-existence.]

This unique Thunder Law is a thunder that germinates; it can utterly destroy the Universe and also give birth to all things within it. When the divine thunder sounds, vitality germinates, and all spirits are born or destroyed.

Its full, daunting name is the Great Heavens Divine Thunder of Life and Death Illusion Extinction. It is rumored to be shaped by a supreme Dominator. With a single thunderclap, it can shatter countless divine kingdoms and make all beings immediately submit. Wherever this divine thunder rages, it can evolve and transform into whatever the caster desires, making it a profound Divine Ability that perfectly combines illusion and destructive thunder magic.

Shi Jian wanted to Cultivate this Great Heavens Divine Thunder of Life and Death Illusion Extinction simultaneously while making his final, explosive Breakthrough to the Immortal King Realm!

His gaze shifted, turning toward the Foreign Realm. He then decisively headed in that direction.

He wanted to completely level the Foreign Realm and turn it into his exclusive, secure land for continuously collecting vast Power Of Faith!

He traversed the heavens and earth, crossing endless regions of the Void Realm to arrive swiftly in the heart of the Foreign Realm!

“The Myriad Law Immortal King has arrived at our home!”

Someone in the Foreign Realm roared in terror, their voice shaking all directions.

The Cultivators of all races in the Foreign Realm were all deeply shaken in their hearts. By now, Shi Jian’s terrifying prestige had already spread throughout their entire domain!

After Shi Jian descended, he stood on the highest firmament and looked down upon the entire Foreign Realm. Divine light flowed in his eyes, as if surging through the entire river of time itself.

The terrifying, absolute Aura caused countless people in the Foreign Realm to involuntarily kneel and submit. Their Physical Bodies betrayed their wills, forcing them to the ground. They lived in constant, profound dread!

Shi Jian reached out and grabbed, and the few remaining Immortal Kings in the Foreign Realm—those who were too weak or foolish to flee—were all instantly seized in his massive palm. He squeezed gently.

All these pathetic Immortal Kings instantly perished.

The Foreign Realm was thus formally leveled by him, with no organized threat remaining!

Of course, this did not account for the strong individuals who had left the Foreign Realm in the past, nor some old monsters from the Era of Emperor’s Fall who were currently in the World Sea. If they ever returned, perhaps they would still cause some minor waves of trouble.

But those were trivial matters for a future date.

Shi Jian began to methodically clean up the battlefield. The ones who died were all Immortal Kings, and their weapons and hidden collections were all peerless Treasures of the highest order. They should not be overlooked.

He visited the secret lairs of all the Immortal Kings he had killed, one by one.

He collected a truly staggering number of Treasures. Billions of years of accumulated wealth were all taken by him, becoming his own immense collection.

This was an unimaginable, world-shaking Treasure Trove. There were simply too many good things to count, all of them peerless rare treasures! Some ancient scriptures among them had grand origins, containing complex, primordial Profound Truths! Some divine weapons belonged to deceased ancient Immortal Kings. There were Spirit Pills refined from legendary immortal medicines.

Shi Jian took everything, leaving nothing of value behind.

Then he stood on the firmament, surveying the entire cosmos of the Foreign Realm. He was considering how best to deal with the vast number of remaining beings in this Domain.

Kill them all, eradicating them completely? That would be far too wasteful of potential Power Of Faith.

He pointed a finger, purging only some of the most heinous executioner Families; those strong individuals whose hands were deeply stained with the blood of innocents were all immediately killed by him!

As for the remaining, surviving beings, he chose not to act against them. Instead, he planned to let the people of the Myriad Law Hall immediately take over, preach the Dao here, and slowly turn these remaining people into his loyal, numerous believers!

Countless forces in the Immortal Realm were utterly shaken by the news. Everyone found it hard to believe.

The ferocious, eternally dominant Foreign Realm—the source of so much pain and war—was just leveled like that, in a single, surgical strike?

This was truly a major, epoch-making event. It must be meticulously recorded in history, becoming a glorious chapter that would never fade from the cosmic record.

After flawlessly arranging the administrative matters of the Foreign Realm, Shi Jian returned to the Immortal Realm.

“Submission or death? Choose quickly.”

His voice spread throughout the entire Immortal Realm, demanding immediate, total compliance. Since the Foreign Realm had already been integrated, he naturally wouldn’t let go of the Immortal Realm’s vast resources. These were all massive sources of Power Of Faith. It would be foolish not to take them.

Countless Immortal Kings in the Immortal Realm fell into stunned silence upon hearing this blunt, terrifying demand. Some felt a moment of displeasure, but remembering Shi Jian’s incredibly fierce, world-ending battle record, that fleeting displeasure immediately vanished, replaced by profound fear!

After less than a single breath of silence, an ancient, powerful giant appeared before Shi Jian.

“I am willing to submit to the Myriad Law Immortal King and the new order!”

Upon seeing this giant-level figure immediately submit, the other, lesser Immortal Kings naturally dared not be slow to follow.

Fearing that if they pledged their loyalty too late, they would be counted among the disobedient and killed by Shi Jian’s terrifying, merciless power.

A large group of Immortal Kings immediately knelt on the ground across the void.

“We are all willing to submit to the Myriad Law Immortal King and pledge our allegiance!”

Shi Jian looked at them leisurely, his eyes filled with absolute assurance. “Fully assist the Myriad Law Hall in its rapid expansion. I want to build temples and erect statues across the entire Immortal Realm, without delay…”

“We obey the ultimate decree!” the various Immortal Kings responded in unison.

The strength of the Myriad Law Hall experienced unprecedented, explosive expansion. Within just a few years, it expanded to the extent that its influence and administrative reach covered both the Immortal Realm and the newly conquered Foreign Realm!

Countless temples dedicated to Shi Jian and Shi Hao were quickly erected across both the Immortal Realm and the Foreign Realm. A continuous, vast stream of Power Of Faith surged toward Shi Jian from billions of new believers!

To ensure the loyal operation of the colossal Myriad Law Hall, Shi Jian also secretly found a few disobedient or two-faced Immortal Kings, then used the terrifying Great Transference Art to convert them, making them completely his fanatical, loyal believers. They were immediately put to work for him!

Besides this, he also specifically went into the dangerous World Sea and captured a group of strong, capable individuals. He used the Great Transference Art to convert them as well! Their purpose was to become the public, trustworthy faces of the Myriad Law Hall, ensuring no one could feign compliance and secretly undermine the Foundation of the new empire.

After flawlessly dealing with all these administrative and strategic necessities, Shi Jian once again went into deep seclusion, preparing to fully charge towards the final Immortal King Realm!

This time, with his immeasurable accumulation, he had an absolute, one hundred percent certainty that he could finally Breakthrough to the Immortal King!
