Black Coffin

"Thousand Shadows—Absolute Void!"

In an instant, the thousands of azure sword shadows converged into one as Daniel Chris swung his sword, tearing open the space directly ahead.

Daniel Chris's strike tore through space with the Laws of Wind, drawing in the Spatial Turbulence beyond the spatial rift to tear apart Aier's Inch from the Horizon domain.

Although Aier's Inch from the Horizon domain had spatial properties that could stretch the distance between him and his enemies to almost "infinity,"

its spatial properties were far inferior to the Spatial Turbulence.

Under the onslaught of the Spatial Turbulence, Aier's Inch from the Horizon domain was torn to shreds.

"Oh?"

At the sight, Aier raised an eyebrow.

"I suppose that was a miscalculation on my part. I should probably have built that move around Gravity Space."

When Aier created the Inch from the Horizon domain, he had used the Earth Walking Profound Mystery to shape the "spatial distance" within it.

As a result, the domain was devastatingly effective against enemies at the Seven-Star Fiend level or below, who couldn't tear open spatial voids.

If they couldn't break through Aier's Inch from the Horizon domain, the number of enemies didn't matter.

But against Asura Prefects like Daniel Chris, who could punch holes in space and harness the power of Spatial Turbulence, Aier's Inch from the Horizon domain wasn't unbreakable.

Still, if Aier rebuilt the domain around Gravity Space, the new Inch from the Horizon domain might not extend spatial distance as far as the version built around Earth Walking.

But its spatial stability would far surpass that of the domain built around the Earth Walking Profound Mystery.

The thought flashed through Aier's mind.

But now wasn't the time to create a new move.

After breaking through Aier's Inch from the Horizon domain, Daniel Chris flashed forward, splitting into dozens of figures as he attacked Aier again.

"Gravity Domain—"

"Black Coffin!"

At Aier's low cry, four black screens abruptly rose around him, enclosing both Aier and Daniel Chris's dozens of clones.

Once the black screens had fully closed, the gravity inside the Black Coffin began shifting unpredictably, like countless invisible blades slicing through the space within.

If the onlookers outside could see through the Black Coffin's screens, they would have realized that these invisible blades cutting through its interior were, in fact, multicolored.

"How is that possible?"

In an instant, Daniel Chris's countless clones were cut to pieces.

Even Daniel Chris himself was torn apart, his body and Defensive Divine Artifact shredded by the countless dazzling blades.

"Is this Spatial Turbulence?"

Daniel Chris was terrified.

As an Asura Prefect-level powerhouse capable of punching spatial voids in Hell, how could Daniel Chris not know how terrifying Spatial Turbulence was?

Even Upper God Defensive Divine Artifacts were crushed within Spatial Turbulence.

Only things beyond the realm of "gods," such as Sovereign Artifacts and Godheads, could remain intact within it.

With Daniel Chris's abilities, if he were caught in Spatial Turbulence, he would have no choice but to perish.

But after his initial terror, Daniel Chris quickly regained his composure.

This wasn't Spatial Turbulence!

Although his divine body and Upper God Defensive Divine Artifact had been cut apart by what seemed like Spatial Turbulence, he could still move.

If he had been caught in Spatial Turbulence, even if it hadn't crushed him at once, its pressure would have left him unable to move.

Just like the move he had used to break Aier's Inch from the Horizon domain, Daniel Chris could tell that Aier's move was also using the power of Spatial Turbulence to harm his opponent.

But his move, "Thousand Shadows—Absolute Void," had only been a single-target attack.

Aier's move, on the other hand, was a large-scale attack capable of devastating everything within its reach.

Daniel Chris didn't know whether he would run out of divine power and die first, or whether a spatial rift would cleave his head apart and destroy the soul inside his Godhead first.

There was just one thing Daniel Chris couldn't figure out.

If he remembered correctly, Aier's move had enclosed him too.

Could Aier be planning to die with him?

As Daniel Chris wondered about this, Aier appeared before him.

The Spatial Turbulence that seemed so terrifying to Daniel Chris swept across Aier's body, but didn't harm him in the slightest.

At the sight, Daniel Chris's pupils abruptly contracted.

"Material Defense Overgod Artifact?"

"Are you an Overgod Envoy?"

Daniel Chris cried out.

Seeing Aier unharmed by the spatial rifts, Daniel Chris hadn't considered that his body might be as strong as a Godhead or Sovereign Artifact. Instead, he assumed Aier was wearing a Material Defense Overgod Artifact.

After all, across the entire Coiling Dragon Universe, plenty of Overgod Envoys possessed Material Defense Overgod Artifacts, but beings whose bodies rivaled Godheads and Sovereign Artifacts were even rarer than Perfect Ones.

"Are you going to surrender, Lord Daniel?"

Aier didn't correct Daniel Chris's mistake. Instead, he lifted Daniel Chris's head in both hands.

"If you don't surrender now, I can't promise you'll survive much longer inside my Black Coffin."

The Black Coffin was currently Aier's strongest offensive move.

Within the Black Coffin, Aier could use unpredictable gravity to tear space apart, filling its interior with countless spatial rifts. Anyone inside would be assailed by them from every direction.

Only a Perfect One with Willpower, someone possessing a Material Defense Overgod Artifact, or a super divine beast or special lifeform with a body as strong as a Godhead or Sovereign Artifact could survive Aier's move.

Daniel Chris didn't fit any of those three categories.

So against Aier's move, Daniel Chris had no way to fight back.

"I surrender! I surrender—I give up!"

Daniel Chris said over and over.

Before seeing Aier's move, Daniel Chris hadn't been confident he could survive against him.

Now that he had seen it, Daniel Chris was immensely grateful he had given Aier that Space Ring earlier.

"Very good, Lord Daniel. You've made the right choice."
