Peak Domain Lord

"When you were practicing the Body Refining Technique earlier, on the shell of the Singularity within your body..."

Before Bai Muye could even stand up, Xiao Si couldn't wait to tell him about the golden secret patterns that had been branded onto the shell of his Singularity.

"That should be a good thing." Bai Muye carefully sensed his Singularity. "I can feel that the Singularity is much harder than before. Even if my Singularity were exposed now, ordinary attacks wouldn't be able to destroy it..."

Suddenly, his expression shifted slightly. He recalled how, in the original story, Luo Feng's Origin Core was so powerful that he had to create his own ultimate secret technique just to break it open and achieve Immortality. He couldn't help but furrow his brows.

"It might not necessarily be a good thing..." he muttered to himself. "If I keep practicing like this, perhaps the Origin Bead formed by the Singularity will be too powerful. If I can't break it open, wouldn't that mean I'd be unable to achieve Immortality?"

"There's such a thing?" After understanding the situation, Xiao Si said with deep conviction, "It's truly possible. You only have a hundred-fold gene level now, and your Singularity is already this powerful. If you continue to practice several more layers after becoming a Domain Lord, who knows how strong it will become..."

It had a sudden thought and said, "Why don't you stop practicing the Body Refining Technique while you're a Domain Lord? You can continue once you become an Immortal..."

Bai Muye considered this seriously and slowly shook his head. "We don't know how much longer we'll be staying here. Danger is everywhere in the Outer Battlefield. Aside from luck, the most important thing for survival is one's own strength. If I don't practice the Body Refining Technique while I'm a Domain Lord, I wouldn't dare say I could survive long enough to reach the ninth stage of the Domain Lord level..."

With a soft sigh, he continued, "Xiao Si, you have to understand that without a heart of a powerhouse that is extremely confident in oneself, it is absolutely impossible to reach higher levels. If you don't even believe you can break your shackles, then you will truly stop moving forward..."

"No matter how powerful the Origin Bead becomes in the future, I believe I can create an even more formidable secret technique to break it open and achieve Immortality!"

Xiao Si seemed stunned by his resonant tone. After a long silence, it said, "Fine, as long as you have confidence, then shall we continue practicing?"

"How much reserve energy do you have left?"

"You consumed about seventy percent of the total reserves practicing the Body Refining Technique. And since you now have a hundred-fold gene level, the energy required to reach the ninth stage of the Domain Lord level is much greater than before, so I don't know if it's enough..."

"I hope it is..." Bai Muye said, feeling a bit helpless. "If it's not enough, I'll have no choice but to spend Military Merit to exchange for treasures to assist in my cultivation..."

"If I can't break through to the World Lord level within the remaining seventy years, I'll have to join another legion again..."

He first rested for a few days, entering the Virtual Universe to relax thoroughly before returning to reality.

However, he didn't start practicing immediately. Instead, he browsed through all the memories of the enemies Xiao Si had stored after killing them.

The enemies who came to the Outer Battlefield, since they were fighting alongside legions, almost all lacked strong backgrounds, so they generally had no special experiences. The only benefit was that he learned countless alien languages and scripts.

"If there's a chance in the future, I could actually visit these alien races. With these memories, at least communication won't be a problem..."

Following that, he spent quite a bit of time integrating all his cultivation insights. However, these insights were no longer of much help to him; after all, he now had insights into all ten laws, including time and space. Many World Lords might not even match his level of insight in their cultivation.

"Alright, let's do it. Start practicing!"

Xiao Si inside the Singularity began to release the energy it had stored. This pure energy was refined into his own Origin Energy without a single drop wasted.

One month later, seventh stage of the Domain Lord level.

Three months later, eighth stage of the Domain Lord level.

Seven months later, ninth stage of the Domain Lord level, and then—it was gone!

"Damn it!" Bai Muye couldn't help but curse. The energy had run out at a critical moment.

He was now at the ninth stage of the Domain Lord level, but he had only just broken through to the ninth stage; he was still far from the peak of the ninth stage.

"How about..." Xiao Si said, sounding a bit pained, "I squeeze out another drop of Golden Marrow Fat for you?"

"Forget it. That's your origin; keep it for emergencies..." Bai Muye shook his head. "I'll go check the Military Merit treasury to see if there's anything good..."

He logged into the Military Merit treasury and searched for treasures that assisted Domain Lord cultivation.

"This one won't do, too slow... This one is also a bit slow... This!"

A blood-red fruit. Just looking at the 3D image made one feel that immense vitality and energy.

The Blood Spirit Fruit was the most suitable treasure for the Domain Lord stage. Not only could it assist in cultivation, but it could also rapidly restore injuries when a Domain Lord was severely wounded, serving a purpose similar to what the Life Fruit did for a World Lord.

The Blood Spirit Fruit was one tier lower than the Life Fruit, and naturally, the price was also one tier lower.

"50,000 Military Merit, equivalent to half a Hunyuan unit, 500 billion Cosmic Coins!" He gritted his teeth. "Bought. I have a hundred-fold life gene level now, and I'm at the ninth stage of the Domain Lord level. A single Blood Spirit Fruit like this should be enough for me to cultivate to the peak of the Domain Lord level..."

Together with his remaining Military Merit, he had over 200,000 in total, so exchanging for one Blood Spirit Fruit was no problem at all.

He clicked to confirm the exchange. After the Military Merit was deducted, military camp personnel delivered the Blood Spirit Fruit to the outside of his island that very day. After receiving it, he returned to his cultivation room.

The Blood Spirit Fruit was contained in a box made of white jade, with law secret patterns carved into the white jade to prevent the vitality and energy of the Blood Spirit Fruit inside from dissipating.

Opening the lid, a surge of astonishing vitality and energy gushed out, accompanied by an incredibly rich fragrance that caused the pores all over his body to open automatically, greedily absorbing that energy.

Bai Muye reached out, picked up the fist-sized blood-red fruit, and shoved it directly into his mouth.

Before he could even taste it, the fruit transformed into endless energy and surged into his body. Although the energy was vast, it wasn't violent; instead, it was extremely gentle, as if wanting to repair his body.

But his body wasn't injured, so this energy simply settled quietly within his body, waiting to be refined.

Bai Muye began to absorb and refine it.

Two months later, Bai Muye had successfully cultivated to the peak of the ninth stage of the Domain Lord level as he had hoped. Less than ten percent of the Blood Spirit Fruit's energy remained, so he simply let Xiao Si absorb it. Otherwise, if left for too long, this energy would eventually dissipate, which would be a waste.

"The taste wasn't bad..." Xiao Si flicked its roots, and the remaining ten percent of energy vanished. "How about you buy another one?"

Bai Muye gave it a look that said, "What kind of nonsense are you spouting?"

"Alright..." Xiao Si chuckled sheepishly and changed the subject. "Are you going to start breaking through to the World Lord level?"

"The transition from Domain Lord to World Lord is the final major life transformation before Immortality. The size of the Internal World is directly related to a World Lord's strength," Bai Muye said slowly. "There are nearly seventy years left until the hundred-year deadline, so I plan to take twenty years to reorganize everything I've learned. If I can fuse it all into one, I believe my strength will advance further, and I might even gain a bit more insight into the laws..."

Over these years, he had browsed through the memories of many World Lords and integrated their cultivation insights, so breaking through from Domain Lord to World Lord was not difficult for him.

However, many World Lords harbor deep regrets in their memories about not spending more time consolidating their foundation during the Domain Lord stage, which led to an unstable foundation that made breaking through to the Immortal level incredibly difficult.

After relaxing for a day, he began to comb through every cultivation insight he had integrated from the very beginning, starting from his first life-or-death battle after transmigrating, covering his insights into various blade techniques, spear techniques, and staff techniques, all the way to his insights into domains and the fusion process of his Mixed Domain...

In this relaxed environment, free from pressure and the need to worry about whether he would have to fight for his life the next moment, coupled with an enlightenment level significantly higher than it had been decades ago, he gained new understandings of these cultivation insights.

Unknowingly, the domain formed by the fusion of his eight types of domains became even more seamless and perfect.

Next came the various laws, starting from the Lightning Law and slowly extending to other laws, breaking them down bit by bit and kneading them through, re-comprehending them all from his own perspective.

Finally, he moved on to the Space Law and the laws of time...

By the time he had transformed all his previous insights into his own foundation, twenty-five years had passed.
