After learning about the general information about the Ōtsutsuki Planet, Tsubasa decided to go there in person, having absolute confidence in himself after becoming Saint.
The light from the ultra-long-distance teleportation array receded like a tide, and Tsubasa felt the space around him twist and stretch before suddenly stabilizing. He took a deep breath, and before he could even see his surroundings clearly, an indescribable, vast pressure, like a sea of stars, descended upon him like billions of equally heavy shackles!
"Ugh!" Tsubasa groaned, his body involuntarily sinking as if he had been thrown into the deepest abyss of the universe. The omnipresent pressure around him was frantically squeezing every inch of his skin, every bone, and even his soul was trembling. His Saint Domain was forcibly compressed by this power. The brilliant halo that was originally enough to cover an entire galaxy could now only barely support a pale golden sphere of light with a diameter of no more than one meter, just enough to protect him.
"What... what kind of power is this?" Tsubasa's heart was filled with shock. He was no longer a novice; as Saint, he had traversed the Shinobi World and explored the starry sky, believing he had witnessed countless storms. But the power of this domain before him was completely beyond his comprehension! This was no ordinary Saint's domain; the laws contained within were supreme, carrying a cold, ancient, and indifferent will, as if it were the embodiment of the rules of the entire universe.
His divine sense, as if trapped in quagmire, struggled to extend outward, instantly "seeing" part of the truth—this was not merely an attack targeting him personally, but rather... enveloping the entire Ōtsutsuki Star Region! Countless Xingchen and myriad living beings were all under the shroud of this invisible domain. The source of that power came from the very core of the starfield, from the indescribable phantom of a God Tree, seemingly piercing through time and space, its roots penetrating the void, its branches obscuring the Milky Way.
"The mother of the Ōtsutsuki Clan... the true form of the God Tree... Could this be the vaguely mentioned but unclear... Divine Domain?" Tsubasa's heart sank. He had anticipated the dangers of the Ōtsutsuki Star Region and was prepared to face multiple Saint, but he never expected that the Ōtsutsuki's trump card would be a terrifying existence that surpassed the Saint realm and stepped into the "Demonic" domain! Moreover, the extent of its domain was simply astonishing.
Just as he was struggling to resist and devising a strategy, a powerful, cold, and emotionless divine voice, like a million ice needles, pierced the depths of his mind. "Stranger, alien Saint expert, why have you invaded my Ōtsutsuki Clan's territory? Please surrender immediately!"
The sound boomed, carrying an undeniable majesty. At the same time, the pressure of the surrounding Divine Domain surged once more, and the pale golden sphere of Saint domain light emitted a creaking sound as it struggled under the strain, its light flickering uncertainly, as if it would shatter completely at any moment. Tsubasa felt like an insect trapped in amber, finding it incredibly difficult even to move a finger, let alone mobilize his Saint Power to unleash his divine abilities.
Unable to save others? Now I'm stuck and can't move an inch! I have to save myself? I'm in grave danger!
Veins bulged on Tsubasa's forehead as his Saint Power surged at an unprecedented speed, resisting the omnipresent suppression of the Divine Domain. Images of Tian Yu being captured flashed through his mind, as did the expectant gazes of the Shinobi World. An indomitable flame ignited within him.
"No... I absolutely cannot fall here!" A resolute glint flashed in his eyes. Now, only one last move remained, the one with the greatest cost—forcibly unleashing the divine power " Will of Fire Formation," burning all his Saint Power in exchange for a brief burst of extreme power. Perhaps this would offer a sliver of hope, allowing him to break through this Divine Domain and escape!
Just as he had that thought and was about to recklessly ignite the Setsuna of Saint Power—
Buzz!
The space around him rippled like water as three figures exuding powerful Saint auras silently stepped out, forming a triangle that surrounded him.
The ones who arrived were none other than Ōtsutsuki Sōichi, Ōtsutsuki Konkei, and Ōtsutsuki Enmu, who had arrived immediately after receiving the message from the God of the God Tree.
The three Ōtsutsuki Saint were all dressed in simple yet luxurious white robes embroidered with intricate patterns of the God Tree. Their auras were either sharp, profound, or fiery, but without exception, they all carried a condescending, scrutinizing gaze as they looked at Tenyi, who was Tsubasa in the Divine Domain like Caged Bird Seal.
"Oh? A human Saint? That's rare." Ōtsutsuki Konkei spoke first, his voice ethereal, his pupils displaying a strange Uzumaki, as if capable of devouring souls. "In the past, those who broke in were mostly Starry Sky Insect Race who only knew how to devour and evolve. I didn't expect this one to be different."
Dark red flame patterns faintly flowed around Ōtsutsuki Enmu's body. He sneered, "Whatever his race, since he dared to trespass into my Ōtsutsuki Sacred Domain and alarm the Mother Goddess, his fate will be the same— the Nine Nether Absolute Prison will be his eternal resting place."
Tsubasa's gaze was fixed on the leader of the three— Ōtsutsuki Sōichi! That face, that cold and arrogant aura that regarded all living beings as ants, he would never forget! This was the man who, with a single move, shattered the Shinobi World, killed countless comrades, and even personally captured Tian Yu!
Anger surged within Tsubasa like magma, threatening to breach the dam of reason. He forcibly suppressed his turbulent blood and qi, his voice hoarse from extreme rage and the suppression of his domain. " Ōtsutsuki... Sōichi! Where is Tian Yu? Hand her over!"
Ōtsutsuki Sōichi looked at him indifferently, his eyes devoid of any emotion, as if he were looking at an inanimate object. "So you came for that insect." His tone was flat, tinged with disdain. "You can barely protect yourself, yet you dare to speak so arrogantly? Intruding into the Divine Domain and alarming the Mother Goddess, your fate was already sealed."
" Sōichi, why waste words with him?" Ōtsutsuki Enmu interrupted impatiently. " The Mother Goddess is still waiting for our reply. Let's do it, seal him away, and cast him into the Nine Nether Absolute Prison, to keep that insect and that strange zombie company."
Accompanying? Tian Yu and Orochimaru were indeed imprisoned there! Tsubasa felt certain, at least confirming the location of his target. But at the same time, his sense of crisis surged to its peak. Once sealed by these three together, under the suppression of the God of the God Tree's domain, he would have no chance of recovery!
Ōtsutsuki Konkei nodded, and the three of them simultaneously raised their hands. Intricate and mysterious sealing runes began to light up in their palms, drawing upon the power of the surrounding Divine Domain. These runes transformed into Sanjo chains of law, shimmering with a ghostly light, and coiled towards Tsubasa like venomous snakes. The aura emanating from those chains sent a shiver down Tsubasa's spine; if he were to be entangled by them, even his Saint essence would likely be completely sealed.
We can't wait any longer!
"Did you really think you had victory in your grasp? You forced me into this!" Tsubasa roared, the last trace of hesitation in his eyes vanishing completely, replaced by a resolute determination to burn everything to the ground!
