4360 Entering the Outer Boundary
“This place…”
Duan Ling Tian found himself standing in the midst of a cluster of deserted buildings after he was transported to the Outer Boundary.
Before leaving the Sun clan, Duan Ling Tian learned from the Sun clan that the Transportation Formation would send him to the territory of the Cyclic World’s Luo Domain in the Outer Boundary.
The Cyclic World’s Upper Tri-domains had a territory each in the Outer Boundary. The supreme powerhouses would take turns guarding the territories.
Currently, the supreme powerhouse on duty at the territory of the Cyclic World’s Luo Domain in the Outer Boundary was coincidentally from the Sun clan.
“Hm? Someone from the Sun clan came here?”
The supreme powerhouse from the Sun clan, who was on duty in the Luo Domain’s territory in the Outer Boundary, could naturally sense the fluctuations in the territory before Duan Ling Tian even arrived. When Duan Ling Tian appeared, he quickly probed Duan Ling Tian with his Divine Consciousness and determined that Duan Ling Tian was not from the Sun clan. As the ancestor of the Sun can, he could naturally sense if someone was a descendant of the Sun clan.
‘He has no blood relations with the Sun clan?’
Sun Ping Yun, the supreme powerhouse from the Sun clan, frowned slightly.
Upon seeing this, an old man with white hair and a ruddy complexion, who was sitting in front of Sun Ping Yun, asked in confusion, “What’s the matter, Brother Sun?”
Sun Ping Yun returned to his senses and shook his head as he said to the old man, “It’s nothing. An intermediate came from our Sun clan’s estate, but he’s not a descendant of the clan. He’s likely a friend of the clan…”
“An intermediate Supreme God?” the old man raised his eyebrows in surprise as he said, “It’s not unprecedented for intermediate Supreme Gods to come to the Outer Boundary, but it’s really dangerous. It’ll be difficult for them to gain a foothold in the Outer Boundary as well. Unless they’re really confident, intermediate Supreme Gods won’t usually come to the Outer Boundary without a good reason…”
“He’s likely quite strong,” Sun Ping Yun said. He hesitated for a moment before he continued to say, “Since he came from the Sun clan’s estate, it’s likely that he has a close relationship with a young descendant of the clan. He must have been warned about the dangers of the Outer Boundary before he came here. He must be a powerful intermediate Supreme God since he dares to come here…”
Sun Ping Yun paused for a moment and looked at the old man in front of him before he said, “Speaking of intermediate Supreme Gods, Duan Ling Tian from the God Defying World is still the most terrifying… It’s said that he currently possesses the strength of an advanced Supreme God despite being an intermediate Supreme God…”
The old man sitting in front of Sun Ping Yun was a supreme powerhouse from the God Defying World. When he heard Sun Ping Yun’s words, his eyes flashed for a moment before he said, “In the known history of the God Defying World, I’ve not heard of any intermediate Supreme God who could match his strength. He’s now irrefutably recognized as the strongest intermediate Supreme God in the God Defying World. Moreover, he still has the liquid from the divine fountain.”
The old man’s eyes brightened when he mentioned the divine fountain. He, like many others, coveted the divine fountain. Although he had no use for it and did not have any descendants or disciples who could use it, he could exchange the divine fountain for things he needed. Many powerhouses were willing to pay a generous price for the divine fountain to cultivate their descendants, after all.
“Divine fountain!”
A hint of greed flashed in Sun Ping Yun’s eyes when the supreme powerhouse from the God Defying World mentioned the divine fountain. He said, “That young man from the God Defying World is really lucky. He obtained such a large amount of liquid from the divine fountain… It’s said that the amount he obtained even shocked people from the three major Worlds. Many people are clamoring that the way he obtained it was unfair.”
The supreme powerhouse from the God Defying World scoffed and said, “Those people just like to complain. What do they mean by ‘unfair’? Isn’t it common for people to seize the opportunity presented to them? If they were in his shoes, would they think it’s unfair? How ridiculous!”
…
Meanwhile, Duan Ling Tian was unaware that he was the topic of discussion between two supreme powerhouses, let alone that the two supreme powerhouses were also in the Luo Domain’s territory in the Outer Boundary.
“Based on the words of the supreme powerhouse from the Xia clan, the territories in the Outer Boundary aren’t actually inside the Outer Boundary. However, one can easily enter the Outer Boundary from these territories. There’s no need to worry about getting lost. These territories are also protected by their respective Worlds. It won’t be easy for most people to force their way in. Perhaps, only a group of supreme powerhouses are capable of doing so. However, it’s rare for something like that to happen. After all, it’s a highly offensive action. Even if the Cyclic World isn’t a powerful World, if a group of supreme powerhouses break in, the Cyclic World can ask for help from the God Defying World even if the Cyclic World’s supreme powerhouses can’t do anything. After all, the Cyclic World is under the rule of the God Defying World. The God Defying World won’t just stand aside and do nothing if the Cyclic World asks for help; the God Defying World will definitely send some supreme powerhouses over to help. This is also how the weak survive… Weak Worlds might be exploited by powerful Worlds, but they also have the protection from the powerful World. Moreover, without the protection of a powerful world, if the barrier breaks during an invasion, all lives will be gone. Only supreme powerhouses will have a chance to survive. For this reason, many weak Worlds seek protection from powerful Worlds…”
Duan Ling Tian learned about this from the supreme powerhouse of the Xia clan when he was in the Xia clan in the God Defying World’s Divine Offering Land.
“The Outer Boundary should be up ahead…”
Duan Ling Tian walked forward in the territory of the Cyclic World’s Luo Domain. He did not see anyone at all. When he finally reached the end of the road, he saw a space barrier that resembled a dome. He could clearly see the scenery on the other side of the barrier.
The scenery behind the barrier changed every once in a while. Beautiful mountains and rivers appeared before they were replaced by volcanoes and lakes.
Duan Ling Tian was not surprised since he had also heard about this from the supreme powerhouse of the Xia clan. The entrances of territories to the Outer Boundary changed places from time to time to prevent those who had just entered the Outer Boundary from being intercepted and killed. However, the distance between the changing places was not very far. After all, there was no World capable of making their entrances move over huge distances. In fact, even if all the supreme powerhouses in the Myriad Worlds joined forces, it would still be an impossible feat.
“Let’s go…”
In just a moment, Duan Ling Tian passed through the translucent space barrier. Then, he found himself in the ocean. Instead of a valley, a small river, or a stream, he appeared in the vast ocean. Naturally, it did not make a difference to him whether he was in the ocean, on land, or in the endless void. He easily kept himself dry with his Divine Energy.
“So this is the Outer Boundary…”
As soon as Duan Ling Tian entered the Outer Boundary, he could sense that the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy had gotten thinner. Apart from that, he could detect the smell of blood that permeated the air.
“Hmm?”
Suddenly, Duan Ling Tian felt the seawater surge around him. Not long after that, he saw a huge and unfamiliar demon in the distance.
The demon possessed four limbs like humans, but its proportions and figures were odd and unbalanced. Its face was ferocious, and it had horns on its head. It looked quite grotesque.
When the demon saw Duan Ling Tian, it laughed wildly. It said to Duan Ling Tian using the common language in the Myriad Worlds, “A human actually entered my territory in the ocean! Free food for me! I killed quite a few human intermediate Supreme Gods. The strongest one managed to withstand 32 moves from me. I wonder how many moves you, a human, can withstand…”
When the demon drew closer, Duan Ling Tian confirmed its cultivation base from its aura. It was a demon in the realm of an advanced Supreme God.
The huge demon continued to say mockingly, like a hunter toying with its prey, “Human, hurry up and run… Let me see you flee in desperation! Although it’s highly unlikely for you to escape under my nose, perhaps, you’ll get lucky!”
Duan Ling Tian remained indifferent toward the demon’s mocking and condescending words. Although he was not completely certain about the full extent of the demon’s strength, he was confident as long as the demon was not a supreme powerhouse. After all, despite being an intermediate Supreme God, he possessed strength comparable to top advanced Supreme Gods.
Duan Ling Tian looked at the demon who was making its way over and smiled coldly as he asked, “Why should I run away?”
At the same time, Duan Ling Tian raised his hand. The Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword appeared in his hand in just a blink of an eye.
Currently, the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword had absorbed another few fragments of prime divine artifacts, and it was getting closer and closer to becoming a prime divine artifact.
Upon seeing the sword in Duan Ling Tian’s hand, the demon’s eyes lit up. “Oh? It’s a prominent divine artifact that’s about to become a prime divine artifact! Human, you really gave me a huge surprise! Very good! Since you prepared this surprise for me, I’ll make sure to leave you with an intact corpse!”
The demon bellowed before a divine weapon appeared in its hand. Based on its aura, the weapon was not any weaker than the current Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword.
Duan Ling Tian was only slightly surprised by this. After all, the opponent was a huge demon in the realm of an advanced Supreme God. It had likely ruled the seas for many years. How could someone like that not have a hidden trump card? Those who survived and thrived in the Outer Boundary were naturally powerful.
