Chapter 1329: One Move After All

Yi Tianyun had already anticipated this situation. When Domain Lord Liuli proposed that he would become the Vice Domain Lord, he knew he would face such challenges.

Unless he had significant prestige, it would naturally be a matter of proving his strength, just like Yi Tianyun, who had to demonstrate his abilities.

The two were soon given a designated area to fight. The other elders watched, unsure of Yi Tianyun’s true power, wondering if it was truly as strong as Domain Lord Liuli had claimed.

“Elder Gou Huang, are you ready?” Yi Tianyun said in a deep voice.

“I’m ready, bring it on!” Elder Gou Huang replied as he unleashed all his internal power, forming an absolute defense around his body. Layer after layer of thick protection surrounded him.

He didn’t need to counterattack, he only needed to defend. So, he activated his strongest defense technique, causing a blue glow to rise around him, which was essentially a thick water wall.

Most of these elders had water-type physiques, so their abilities were water-based. They worshipped the power of the Water God. When activated, a massive illusion of the Water God appeared behind him.

Elder Gou Huang, at the peak of God Monarch Level 7, was using his full strength, continuously releasing waves of powerful energy, creating an impregnable defense.

“Looks like Elder Gou Huang has made great progress in his Water Divine Art. The power he’s released is comparable to the defense of a high-tier Heavenly Dao Armor. With his own strength added, it’s not invincible, but even Domain Lord Liuli wouldn’t easily break it,” one of the elders commented.

“Not bad. I didn’t expect Elder Gou Huang to progress so quickly. In just a short time, he’s reached this level. Even Domain Lord Liuli might not be able to break it in one strike. Yi Tianyun is going to be in trouble,” another elder remarked.

“Three moves would have been perfect for this. In the past, three moves was always the ideal number, just enough. A few moves would give a retreat, but now Yi Tianyun accepted one strike right away. Isn’t that a bit too bold?”

Domain Lord Liuli stood quietly, her face expressionless, not showing any concern.

Yi Tianyun carefully observed Gou Huang’s defense, nodding. “Your defense is truly impressive. If you turn that into an attack, it would be even more terrifying.”

Gou Huang was, after all, the strongest elder aside from Domain Lord Liuli. His level was remarkably high. He seemed to have made breakthroughs. For someone of his age, it was rare to achieve such progress. Some cultivators spent their entire lives without ever breaking through again, but he had.

Yi Tianyun didn’t attack immediately. This wasn’t a fight to the death. If it had been, he would not have let his opponent prepare for so long. He’d have killed him in one strike without giving him a chance to gather strength.

Now, he waited for Gou Huang to finish preparing. Once all his defenses were released, Yi Tianyun would strike to break them, achieving the best effect.

“Now I can attack!” Gou Huang frowned when he saw Yi Tianyun wasn’t rushing to attack. Even if he had confidence in himself, he didn’t need such a long preparation time, right?

“Alright, I’ll break your defense with one strike.”

Yi Tianyun’s eyes flashed. Without using a weapon, he took a step forward, releasing the power of his Supreme God Monarch title, pressing forward toward Gou Huang.

Instantly, Gou Huang felt himself being suppressed, his power reduced by more than half. The surrounding defense immediately weakened. It was like a thick wall being hit and thinned out, leaving only a thin layer.

It was an incredibly tragic sight. What had once been a powerful defense was now halved. Originally able to withstand half-step Heavenly Venerable attacks, it couldn’t even hold up against God Monarch Level 5 now.

This was all due to a mere suppression of momentum, yet it had such an effect, leaving Gou Huang stunned and horrified.

The other elders and Domain Lord Liuli were puzzled. Why had Gou Huang’s defense not gotten stronger but instead weakened?

Since Yi Tianyun wasn’t targeting them, they didn’t feel anything different. They were all confused, wondering why Gou Huang’s defense had weakened.

While they were in confusion, Yi Tianyun had already made his move. Without incredible speed or explosive power, he quickly closed the distance and punched straight toward Gou Huang.

“Ding! Opponent is at God Monarch level, activating 30x damage increase!”

“Boom!”

The sudden increase in power made his punch incredibly sharp. The 30x damage multiplier fully unleashed the punch’s power.

“Bang!”

As his fist collided with the shield, it shattered instantly, turning into a burst of energy and light, scattering everywhere. It was easily broken, like smashing a thin layer of water droplets, instant and effortless.

With the powerful punch, Yi Tianyun struck at Gou Huang. Gou Huang instinctively raised his hand to block, but Yi Tianyun’s fist had already stopped.

“Gou Huang, do you think this is enough?” Yi Tianyun’s fist didn’t land. If it had, Gou Huang would have been severely injured.

They were all on the same side, and there was no need to go that far. The fact that he could easily break the defense was already enough to prove everything.

Gou Huang was stunned, his eyes showing a look of defeat. “I lost…”

He hadn’t expected to lose so thoroughly. After just one exchange, his entire strength had been reduced. He didn’t even know how it happened. He had been easily broken through, and then completely defeated.

He knew that the moment his power had been cut in half, he had lost. He didn’t know how Yi Tianyun had done it, but he knew that with that level of power, he was bound to lose.

“Lost?”

Everyone was shocked, still not understanding what had happened. The defense had been so strong, how could it be broken so easily? It was like drinking water, no spectacular battle, and it was all over.

Domain Lord Liuli’s eyes flickered. She hadn’t expected Yi Tianyun to make it so easy. She had guessed that Yi Tianyun could solve it with one strike, but she hadn’t expected him to do it so effortlessly.

“Sure enough, after the breakthrough, his power has grown immensely. How did he do it?”

Domain Lord Liuli wanted to tie Yi Tianyun to her side. After witnessing his power, how could she let him go? She had originally thought Yi Tianyun would be cannon fodder in the battle for the Divine Realm, but now, it was clear he was far from it, he was definitely among the best!

If he continued to grow, he could potentially become a key player in the Third Grade God Territory!

After Yi Tianyun displayed his powerful strength, everyone became completely submissive, with no complaints at all.

“Too strong! I’ve never seen such domineering power. To think he just broke through to God Monarch, I can’t believe it…”

“Yeah, how did he cultivate to reach this level? He just joined a few years ago, and now he’s a God Monarch? This speed is absurd.”

“If he really is at God Monarch Level 1, his power is already comparable to a half-step Heavenly Venerable! This kind of strength must be from a top-tier bloodline, or maybe reincarnation, right?”

It wasn’t uncommon for people to defeat opponents above their level, but it required an extraordinary amount of talent. Their bloodline must be incredibly powerful, or they must be reincarnated beings, like a Heavenly Venerable reincarnation, where the cultivation breakthrough happens quickly.

But what did Yi Tianyun have? A Human race bloodline? Just that alone would lead most to believe his death was inevitable. If his bloodline wasn’t strong, his talent would be poor, and if his talent was poor, how could he expect to reach such heights?

But in fact, he had already reached the pinnacle, surpassing expectations, defeating Gou Huang, and if it had been a battle to the death, Gou Huang would have perished right there.

“Your cultivation has broken through again. If we fought now, I fear I would lose,” Domain Lord Liuli shook her head and said. “Why don’t we do this, let you be the Domain Lord, and I’ll be the Vice Domain Lord.”

“No, no!”

The other elders jumped up in shock, rushing toward Domain Lord Liuli, signaling her not to act impulsively. This was a big deal. No one could deny Yi Tianyun’s strength, but there was a vast difference in prestige. Yi Tianyun had risen too quickly, which could easily lead to dissatisfaction.

Being Vice Domain Lord might be acceptable, but becoming the Domain Lord was another matter entirely. This would mean that Heavenly Spring God Territory would essentially be under his control.

“Cough, cough. Domain Lord, this joke isn’t funny,” Yi Tianyun said helplessly, raising his hands to signal her to stop joking.

“I’m not joking,” Domain Lord Liuli said seriously. “The God Territory War is approaching, and if something happens to me, I hope you will take over as the next Domain Lord.”

Her expression was extremely serious, not like a joke at all. Once the God Territory War began, it could directly affect this place. She would have to fight, and the risk of her downfall was real.

This wasn’t something to joke about, preparing for such an event was necessary, to avoid leaving the realm leaderless in case of an unforeseen tragedy.

“Domain Lord, we don’t need to talk about future matters now, right? Even if that’s the case, Elder Gou Huang can take over,” Yi Tianyun strongly recommended Gou Huang. He wasn’t particularly good at managing these things.

For example, the Three Realms’ forces, he had never managed them. He had left that to Shi Xueyun, acting as a hands-off manager. The Domain Lord position would likely be the same, he wouldn’t really be managing anything.

“I now appoint you as the next Domain Lord. There’s no need to discuss it further,” Domain Lord Liuli waved her hand, not wanting to discuss the matter any further.

Typically, the Domain Lord had the authority to appoint their successor, unless all the elders strongly opposed, in which case it might not be accepted.

The other elders wore helpless expressions, but they didn’t say anything. Domain Lord Liuli was always cautious, and since she had said it, they could only choose to accept.

Elder Gou Huang shook his head without saying anything, following Domain Lord Liuli’s orders.

“This…” Yi Tianyun looked at Domain Lord Liuli’s expression, and after some thought, nodded without saying much.

He knew that no matter what he said now, it wouldn’t change anything. Domain Lord Liuli wasn’t going to change her mind, so he could only agree. Once the appointment was made, the news spread immediately, causing quite an uproar.

Suddenly, a Vice Domain Lord had emerged, and it was none other than the famous Yi Tianyun, who had previously made a name for himself at the Divine Construct Palace! Now, not only had his cultivation reached God Monarch, but he had also become the Vice Domain Lord. This left everyone dumbfounded.

Especially those from the Divine Construct Palace, they were shocked. Their little junior brother had become the Vice Domain Lord! When they next met, should they address him as Vice Domain Lord, or still as little junior brother? It was clear they would have to use the former title, and even Heavenly Monarch Huo Lian and others wouldn’t dare call him junior brother anymore.

Soon, many of the elders went off to handle their own affairs, leaving Yi Tianyun and Domain Lord Liuli alone.

“Sister Liuli, what you’re doing makes it difficult for me. It’s hard to win everyone’s approval!” Yi Tianyun said after agreeing, but it was all about gaining the approval of others.

“I know that, of course, but when chaos erupts, the strongest cultivator must lead the way. And I’ve seen your abilities, your cohesion is strong, and in a crisis, you’ll be able to lead everyone out of danger!” Domain Lord Liuli said seriously.

Earlier, when they were at the Myriad Venerable God Tower, Yi Tianyun had always helped her, and that had moved her deeply.

“Alright, but I think this situation won’t happen. I won’t die, and Sister Liuli won’t die either!” Yi Tianyun said with firm confidence. He was certain that neither he nor Domain Lord Liuli would die.

He had many ways to ensure Domain Lord Liuli’s safety, so there was no need to worry.

“Having you as my junior brother is really wonderful,” Domain Lord Liuli said, patting his shoulder and smiling. “Alright, let’s get back to what we need to do. After just coming out of the Myriad Venerable God Tower, I need to go into seclusion and reflect.”

She had gained a lot this time, and she might even be able to use this opportunity to break through to Heavenly Venerable.

Yi Tianyun nodded, said his goodbyes to her, and after leaving, he went to his cultivation spot. With a flash, he disappeared from his original position.

The next moment, he appeared inside the Myriad Venerable God Tower.

“Welcome back, Master!” the Venerable Spirit respectfully said.

“Mm, good. How far are we from the Evil Spirit God Territory?” Yi Tianyun asked.

“Approximately a few days’ journey,” the Venerable Spirit respectfully answered.

“A few more days?” Yi Tianyun looked at the endless void ahead, coldly smiling. “Then let the Evil Spirit God Territory live a few more days. After that, we’ll use the Myriad Venerable God Tower to crush them, leaving not a single one alive!”

The Myriad Venerable God Tower wasn’t heading to the Mortal Territory; it was flying straight to the Evil Spirit God Territory! This Myriad Venerable God Tower could fight; it could transform into a giant and stomp down with overwhelming force, what could survive that? This was a Heavenly Venerable Spirit Treasure, and there was no problem in suppressing the Evil Spirit God Territory.

He had previously been forced to retreat, but now he was truly going to annihilate the Evil Spirit God Territory, ending this mainline mission!
