第三千八百三十九章 辅助属性的领域

Domain!

Lin Xuan's pupils constricted. He was both intrigued and somewhat surprised. Lin Xuan wasn't unfamiliar with domain power; in fact, since the Peach Blossom Banquet, he had faced such beings more than once. However, this particular domain was truly unheard of.

It was well-known that domains consumed astronomical amounts of mana, so even the greatest masters would only unleash them for a brief moment during combat. But before his eyes... it didn't seem to follow these rules.

Lin Xuan surveyed his surroundings; everything was enveloped in dense magical energy, making it difficult to see clearly. His absorption of primordial energy had also noticeably slowed down.

"Interesting. This isn’t a domain used for combat but rather something auxiliary."

After a quick glance around, Lin Xuan quickly understood the situation. "Knowing that won't help you. In my domain, there's nowhere to hide, let alone escape smoothly. Submit if you want to avoid suffering."

The voice was ethereal and hard to pinpoint, akin to another form of "My domain, my rules."

"Submit? A bold claim indeed. Is a domain so impressive? Watch me break it," Lin Xuan said with a smile.

The domain before him, while intriguing, was merely new and interesting but not particularly powerful. It was more auxiliary than anything else—nothing to be overly impressed about. For an ordinary cultivator, perhaps it had some use, but in his presence, it was nothing more than showboating.

Before Lin Xuan could finish speaking, he raised his right hand, and a shimmering aura flowed from his body, forming the Nine Palaces Needles, which streaked forward.

"Hmph. A mere treasure's attack—what use is that? You're just another cultivator spouting empty boasts."

The voice of the demoness echoed in his ears, laced with mockery. But before she could finish speaking, something unexpected happened: "Eh, what’s this? Multiple laws of force... impossible! In my domain, how can you still use other laws, and so many at that? Could it be... are you also a domain master?"

"Hmph. It's too late for such realizations now."

Lin Xuan said coldly as he raised his right hand again, making a mock strike.

As he moved, the Nine Palaces Needles emitted a sharp light, mixing multiple laws of force, giving off an aura reminiscent of the primordial chaos.

"What... this is the Law of Chaos. Impossible! Since the fall of the Arrogant King, has anyone else delved into this domain?"

The demoness's scream echoed as her expression turned to one of sheer terror and shock.

But just a hundred feet in front of Lin Xuan, magical light appeared, revealing a demon with a goat head and human body. However, she no longer showed any signs of mockery or fear; instead, her hands moved frantically as if trying to reinforce the domain.

Not only was it being reinforced, but countless black beams shot out, transforming into battle axes that fell upon the Nine Palaces Needles.

Perhaps not to block them, just to slow their advance.

But in vain. The Nine Palaces Needles now carried a hint of chaos law, making them nearly invincible. The demon axes struck with no effect; instead, the bright sword light converged and formed a massive sword over a hundred feet long, slicing downward with the power to move mountains.

Boom!

The wind rose as the magical energy rapidly dissipated. The scene before him gradually became clearer.

In just one strike, Lin Xuan had broken through her domain.

Was the enemy weak? Of course not; while it was auxiliary, its power was formidable. Once ensnared, an opponent could no longer use natural laws, and even fellow domain masters would be greatly suppressed.

Auxiliary domains weren't necessarily weaker than combat ones; they just had different focuses.

Unfortunately for her, she hadn’t faced a mere ordinary domain master but Lin Xuan himself. Various coincidences allowed him to gain some understanding of the Law of Chaos, though he couldn’t fully grasp it yet. He applied this knowledge to his own domain, breaking through with the aid of chaos law. The result was an unexpected victory; in one move, he had shattered her domain.

The entire process seemed complex but took only an instant.

A "pfft" sound echoed as the goat-headed demoness's face turned pale. Her domain broken, she suffered severe damage akin to that from a precious artifact.

The female demon wouldn't fare much better.

Lin Xuan didn’t pursue; he had already tested his strength perfectly and found it met expectations. Killing her would be easy, but there was no need for haste.

Curiously, where was the two-headed four-armed male demon?

Had he fled? No, not at all! He was waiting in ambush like a snake.

Lin Xuan released his divine sense.

Suddenly, an anomaly occurred.

Boom!

A rumbling sound filled Lin Xuan's ears as he looked up to see a vortex of magical energy forming above him. Inside, purple-black lightning flickered.

"Daunting my companion? Let me show you the power of my Lightning Domain!"

With a roar, the two-headed four-armed demon appeared, his four arms raised overhead, each palm holding a round gem.

His face was set with determination.

A Lightning Domain?

Lin Xuan murmured softly, a thoughtful expression on his face. A domain allowed one to alter or create laws within its realm—my domain, my rules. But thinking it encompassed the entirety of domains would be a grave mistake.

It was common knowledge that cultivators began interacting with natural laws in the Spirit Concentration Stage but could only sense and vaguely understand them then. After entering the Tribulation Transcendence stage, they could more easily control these laws, enhancing their power significantly.

During this process, there were preferences. Some favored lightning, while others preferred fire; it was like choosing a cultivation technique with different elemental attributes.

Similarly, one's spirit root and personality also played significant roles. (Young Lion Book Alliance.)
