Chapter 1189: Special fundamental rules

"First Han Liang, then the Endless Demon Gods, and now this guy. It seems the Blank Domain has sensed my threat and is trying to find a way to strike back at me."

Han Jue thought silently. The current Zhongyuan Realm had expanded countless times. To a Free and Unfettered Saint, it was still boundless. Only a Great Dao Sage could jump out, but even then, it would take a very long time.

The size of the Zhongyuan Realm was not just its physical surface area; the spatial rules had also improved. For someone like a Great Dao Sage, they couldn't jump out with just a thought. This kind of obstruction was equivalent to Han Jue facing the Blank Domain—he couldn't just jump out whenever he wanted.

The expansion of a Great Dao World was never just about getting larger to the naked eye.

Han Jue stood up and disappeared from his spot.

He arrived before the mysterious Lightning Egg. In an instant, the various types of lightning in this void froze, and even the rays of light surging toward the Lightning Egg stopped.

The Formless and Shapeless Transcendent Great Divine Being appeared beside him and bowed respectfully.

Since gaining power over the Endless Era, his cultivation had been growing. However, facing Han Jue, he inexplicably felt that the gap between them was widening.

"Dominator, how should this item be handled?"

The Formless and Shapeless Transcendent Great Divine Being asked respectfully.

Han Jue said, "I will take him away and discipline him properly."

The Formless and Shapeless Transcendent Great Divine Being asked in surprise, "You can take him away?"

Han Jue reached out, and the incredibly massive Lightning Egg rapidly shrank, falling into his palm.

The Formless and Shapeless Transcendent Great Divine Being's heart shook. Previously, so many Creator Daoists had joined forces and couldn't budge this egg, yet the Dominator had collected the Lightning Egg with a casual wave.

Han Jue clenched his right hand, and the Lightning Egg vanished.

At that moment, the frozen lightning bolts struck toward Han Jue. His gaze turned cold, and all the lightning dissipated as the surrounding space twisted violently.

The Formless and Shapeless Transcendent Great Divine Being felt a terrifying power. This power was incredibly horrifying, but he couldn't grasp where it came from; it definitely didn't come from the Dominator.

The rule power of the Blank Domain?

The Formless and Shapeless Transcendent Great Divine Being was horrified.

Could the Dominator already ignore the rule power of the Blank Domain?

Han Jue smiled at the Formless and Shapeless Transcendent Great Divine Being and said, "Your cultivation has grown a bit. You haven't disappointed me."

The Formless and Shapeless Transcendent Great Divine Being was overwhelmed by the favor.

Han Jue disappeared.

The Formless and Shapeless Transcendent Great Divine Being sighed with emotion for a moment before leaving as well.

…

Back inside the Third Dojo.

Han Jue threw the Lightning Egg into the zhongyuan heavenly prison. The egg floated in a corner, looking like a black hole.

The Origin Shenji suddenly emerged from the wall, approached the Lightning Egg, and observed it intently.

The Origin Shenji was transformed from Origin Space-Time. Since being subdued by Han Jue, it had been wandering around the dojo. The Disciples all knew of its existence and considered it the dojo's Divine Beast.

Han Jue smiled and said, "Don't touch it, you'll get hurt."

The Origin Shenji's snake head nodded quickly, then it coiled a few times and left.

Han Jue took some time to look toward the Blank Domain.

Twenty billion years had passed, and the Endless Era had spread out. The Great Dao Worlds were far apart, and countless great worlds had been born, making the Blank Domain lively. Compared to the expansion speed of the Great Dao Worlds' territory in the Endless Era, the Zhongyuan Realm's Domain was still slow.

Now there were fifteen Creator Daoists, even counting the three Primordial Chaos Demon Gods as one.

Han Liang and Chu Xiaoqi were also close to becoming Creator Daoists, but they had both hit Bottlenecks. This was mainly due to having too few experiences; their generation had almost never encountered a major calamity, so they had little understanding of fate. Chu Xiaoqi's past life had participated in the Great Dao Calamity, but he was dragged down by the Karma of Hongmeng Despair, causing his Great Dao World to be unstable, with occasional Karma storms ravaging it.

Han Jue no longer had any special feelings for them. He no longer cared whether they could successfully Attain the Dao.

The current Han Jue only wanted to surpass the Creation Sovereign as soon as possible.

In the future, there would surely be beings with even more outstanding Aptitude than the Lightning Egg; he could not slacken in his cultivation.

Compared to when he first attained the position of Creation Sovereign, Han Jue's power had grown dozens of times stronger. He was constantly becoming stronger at a rapid pace, but there were no minor Realm Breakthroughs. Perhaps the Creation Sovereign Realm had no minor Realms at all, and all Realms above it were the same.

Zhongyuan Supreme was the definition Han Jue gave to the Realm above the Creation Sovereign.

He had two hypotheses: one was that attaining Zhongyuan Supreme by having the Zhongyuan Realm replace the Blank Domain.

The second was to break through in advance!

As for how to break through, that could only be by improving his Aptitude.

Han Jue currently only had one Zhongyuan fragment, while he had fifteen primordial chaos fragments. It took nine Zhongyuan fragments to synthesize the Zhongyuan great creation. Now, a choice reward was only triggered once every ten billion years. Relying on the Zhongyuan great creation would still require an incredibly long time.

He decided to forge his own path.

It didn't necessarily have to rely on the System!

The System was transformed from the will of creation of the Blank Domain, formed by the accumulated creations of countless previous masters.

He began to ponder how the will of creation became stronger.

The System's explanation was that the stronger he became, the stronger the System became.

But the System was always able to remain superior to him.

It seemed the reason still lay within the fundamental rules of the Blank Domain.

How did the System absorb the power of fundamental rules without him moving?

Wait!

Karma, faith, Luck…

These were invisible, intangible powers that existed in the unseen.

Could it be that the System was absorbing his Luck, faith, and Karma?

Could the fundamental rules of the Blank Domain also have such distinctions?

Han Jue fell into deep thought, his will delving beneath the space of the Blank Domain to face the fundamental rules directly.

His vision was filled with colorful rule light rays, varying in form and speed, reaching a quantity that even he, a Creation Sovereign, found difficult to estimate.

Everything around him was flowing at high speed.

Han Jue began to search for special fundamental rules. He might not have been able to do it before, but now that he was much stronger, he might be able to find them.

While Han Jue was immersed in the fundamental rules, on the surface of the Blank Domain…

A River of Sword Dao traversed the pale void. Li Daokong stood on the crest of a wave, his hands clasped behind his back.

"Kid, you can no longer escape. Give up."

Li Daokong said expressionlessly. Following his gaze, a figure flickered ahead, moving very fast.

Soon, the figure stopped and revealed his true form. It was a White-Haired Man, the reincarnated Emperor Chen Ni.

Ten billion years had passed, and Emperor Chen Ni had risen again as a being of the Zhongyuan Realm. However, he had no memories of his past life and acted only on instinct. In this life, he was still called Emperor Chen Ni; Chen Ni was his name, etched deep into his Soul, impossible to erase.

"Endless Deity, what on earth do you want!"

Emperor Chen Ni roared, his tone somewhat uneasy.

The River of Sword Dao surged forward. Li Daokong looked down at him and said, "As a being of the Zhongyuan Realm, you should not come out to devour other Great Dao Worlds. This brings shame to the Dominator."

Emperor Chen Ni laughed out of anger and said, "Has the Zhongyuan Realm not devoured other Great Dao Worlds? I am merely helping the Dominator!"
