“Successfully killed Northern Peak Heavenly Venerable. Gained 135,000 compressed EXP, 2,600 compressed Frenzy Points, and 2,300 Sin Points. Obtained Northern Peak Spirit Treasure, Northern Peak Divine Art, and Sacred Peak God Domain Key (opens most secret chambers)!”
“Gained bonus for killing above one’s level: 30,000 compressed EXP.”
All four Heavenly Venerables were completely wiped out—none escaped. The experience and rewards obtained were extremely generous. Not only were the dropped items valuable, but the wealth they carried with them was equally astonishing.
These were Heavenly Venerables, after all—especially elders of Sacred Peak God Domain—practically dripping with wealth. The contents of just one of their storage rings were enough to crush half of a second-grade God Domain.
That was why the more invaders, the better. Nothing was more profitable than this. There was no need to run around gathering resources—just stay here and wait for them to come.
“Hopefully they’ll keep sending another batch of strong experts—preferably even stronger ones.” Yi Tianyun twirled the Star Divine Spear in his hand and said with a faint smile, “Otherwise, there’s really no way to test just how effective things can be on my own turf.”
Easily annihilating four Heavenly Venerables greatly boosted his confidence. Those once untouchable Heavenly Venerable powerhouses could now be toyed with at will before him. Just relying on the effects of that title alone was enough to crush everything.
After all, doubled power plus suppression power theoretically stacked together. Calculated by multipliers, the combined effect easily exceeded sixty to seventy times in strength.
With just that, he was practically invincible. If the opponent’s cultivation was too high, he would simply raise his own cultivation and then crush them with an even stronger foundation!
After the communication jade was activated, the message quickly reached Sacred Peak God Domain. However, after reading the information, all they heard were the two words “ambush” before the message abruptly cut off.
“Ambush?”
Inside the grand hall, everyone was dumbfounded. The four elders they had sent out—were they all dead? That single word “ambush”—did it mean they were alive or dead? No one knew. But judging from the situation, they must have encountered extreme danger—possibly total annihilation!
Faces turned grim across the hall, especially that of the Sacred Peak Domain Lord seated on the throne. His expression was darker than ever. Even the Heavenly Venerable powerhouses sitting beside him lost their smiles; their expressions were equally unpleasant.
Losing four Heavenly Venerables at once—no one could stay smiling after that. Especially when they were Heavenly Venerables from an external God Domain, capable of fully participating in the God Domain War—gone just like that?
Even if they were still alive, the odds were grim. They might still be under pursuit or trapped somewhere. Anything was possible.
The returned message was simply too little. With only two words, it was likely the transmission had been interrupted or sealed—otherwise, it wouldn’t have been so brief.
“Ambush? With their strength, would an ambush even work?” The Sacred Peak Domain Lord’s face was frighteningly dark. His heart was filled with unease, and the great powers beside him were clearly displeased as well.
Their cultivation might be slightly lower than his, but they represented the will of higher authorities. That made all the difference. With just a brief report upward, he could be finished—possibly even replaced on the spot.
“Whether ambush works or not, we don’t know,” one of the Heavenly Venerables beside him spoke, his expression far from pleasant. “But the situation clearly isn’t good.”
If the God Domain War failed, not only Sacred Peak God Domain but even they themselves would suffer severe consequences. They had been sent down with important orders and were now tied to Sacred Peak God Domain—its fate directly affected theirs.
Cold sweat broke out on the Sacred Peak Domain Lord’s forehead. He could clearly sense how dissatisfied these great powers were. Who could be happy under circumstances like this?
“Elders, there shouldn’t be any major problem. We just need to send people to investigate.” He spoke in a deep voice. “This time, we’ll be extremely cautious—send more powerful experts to probe the situation and find out exactly what’s going on. It’s very possible that Wan Tian God Domain is behind this. This Three Realms God Domain might have been created by Wan Tian God Domain!”
For a first-grade God Domain to keep four elders behind, there was undoubtedly a powerful backing. And that backing could very well be Wan Tian God Domain.
If it wasn’t a power of that level, they simply couldn’t imagine who else could stop them.
“Wan Tian God Domain?”
The group exchanged glances, then slowly nodded in agreement with the speculation.
“If it really is Wan Tian God Domain, this won’t be easy to resolve.” One mid-tier Heavenly Venerable calmly analyzed the situation. “We absolutely cannot attack rashly. First, send people who specialize in gathering intelligence—preferably infiltrate both inside and outside to investigate everything clearly. That’s the priority.”
“Not attacking directly?” The Sacred Peak Domain Lord had a fiery temper. Four elders were stuck there, their fate unknown—and they weren’t sending rescue immediately?
“What if it’s a trap?” The Heavenly Venerable coldly glanced at him. “The opponent might be Wan Tian God Domain. Their reinforcements won’t be fewer than yours. As for those four, we’ll ignore their fate for now. First, find out exactly what this first-grade God Domain really is!”
“Y-yes…” The Sacred Peak Domain Lord could only agree. He had no right to refuse—he was merely a chess piece.
They soon began dispatching scouts to gather intelligence. Among them was Divine Lord Yu Qin!
The dispatched individuals were mostly Divine Lord level, with even some Heavenly Lord cultivators included. They were sent to infiltrate and gather information, not to wipe anyone out.
Their approach had shifted from aggressive assault to cautious reconnaissance. This decision immediately spared the Heavenly Venerables who would otherwise have been sent to their deaths.
During this time, Yi Tianyun stayed within the Three Realms God Domain, waiting for retaliation from Sacred Peak God Domain. However, after waiting for quite a while, no retaliation came. Instead, he sensed many unfamiliar cultivators with relatively low cultivation entering the domain.
“Hm? There’s even a familiar face?”
Yi Tianyun flashed and vanished from where he stood.
At the edge of the Three Realms God Domain, Divine Lord Yu Qin had indeed broken through to the Divine Lord realm. Her cultivation was still low—Divine Lord First Layer—indicating she had only recently advanced.
“The Three Realms God Domain… what kind of new God Domain is this? What’s its background exactly?” Yu Qin had been sent here and found herself quite interested. She didn’t want to stay in Sacred Peak God Domain anyway—getting out for some fresh air wasn’t bad.
“There’s no special background.”
A voice suddenly sounded beside her, startling Yu Qin. She immediately became alert and turned—only to see a familiar face!
“You—why are you here?!” Yu Qin exclaimed in shock.
“This is my territory,” Yi Tianyun shrugged with a smile. “Why can’t I be here?”

“M-my… your territory?”
Divine Lord Yu Qin quickly caught the key point. If this was Yi Tianyun’s territory, then didn’t that mean this was Yi Tianyun’s God Domain?
She suddenly recalled the rumors circulating outside—that the domain lord here was called Domain Lord Tianyun. Combined with Yi Tianyun’s name, didn’t that mean it was him?
“That’s right. This is my territory.” Yi Tianyun smiled lightly. “Sacred Peak God Domain sent you here to investigate this place, didn’t they?”
He showed no hostility at all. He had already known Yu Qin Divine Lord’s identity, and she had been honest about it herself, so there was no issue between them.
Yu Qin Divine Lord looked Yi Tianyun up and down as if she’d seen a ghost, and said in shock,
“You really are Domain Lord Tianyun? The one that was being talked about everywhere? When I first heard it, I thought it was just someone with the same name. I didn’t expect it to actually be you!”
“Really? Am I that famous?” Yi Tianyun said with a faint smile.
“Of course you are—especially since the four elders we sent over all disappeared without a trace! That made us suspect that the Three Realms God Domain had joined forces with Wan Tian God Domain,” Yu Qin Divine Lord said in confusion.
“That’s not a bad line of thinking…” Yi Tianyun stroked his chin. It seemed they really did assume that a first-grade God Domain lacked sufficient power and must have a third-grade God Domain backing it.
“Then what exactly happened to our four elders? Are they alive or dead?” Yu Qin Divine Lord asked.
“Oh, them? They’re already dead.” Yi Tianyun shrugged and added, “Killed by me.”
“Killed by you?” Yu Qin Divine Lord’s eyes went blank. No matter how she thought about it, she could never imagine that Yi Tianyun was the one who killed them. To her, it was simply unbelievable.
“Yes, killed by me. You’re not going to report this back, are you?” Yi Tianyun said with a smile.
“That, I won’t.” Yu Qin Divine Lord sighed, then her eyes suddenly lit up. “It’s a pity the Grand Elder didn’t come. If he were killed by you too, I’d finally be free!”
She then added curiously,
“By the way, how did you actually do it? Did you join forces with other Heavenly Venerables, or use some kind of trap? Four Heavenly Venerables—all dead!”
She believed they were dead, but she didn’t quite believe Yi Tianyun had personally done it. From her perspective, being killed on his territory could technically still count as being killed by him.
“Didn’t I already say it? I killed them myself.” Yi Tianyun said helplessly, shrugging.
“How is that possible! Aren’t you only at Divine Lord realm right now—wait, no… your breakthrough speed is way too fast!” Yu Qin Divine Lord carefully sensed his aura and realized that Yi Tianyun was already a Divine Lord—far stronger than her.
“Even if I tell you, you won’t believe it. What can I do?” Yi Tianyun smiled faintly.
“In any case, they were killed by me. What kind of strong experts do you think a first-grade God Domain could have? As for joining forces with Wan Tian God Domain—that’s pure nonsense. They can barely handle their own affairs. Why would they come cooperate with me?”
“But… but…” Yu Qin Divine Lord didn’t know what to say anymore. The shock was simply too great.
“There’s no ‘but.’ The people you sent here now are just trying to figure out my strength, right?” Yi Tianyun said calmly.
He had long since sensed the unfamiliar cultivators entering. After obtaining his special title, he could perceive everything with ease. Any stranger who entered would be detected immediately—there was no escaping his perception.
“Yes. Since the four elders never returned, they didn’t dare send more powerful experts. So they could only send scouts like us.” Yu Qin Divine Lord sighed.
“It’s a shame. If the Grand Elder were killed by you, that would really be perfect.”
Her eyes were full of regret. If the Grand Elder were dealt with, she would finally be free. She was bound by the Grand Elder’s control—if he didn’t die, she wouldn’t gain her freedom and would still be bound by her oath.
Yi Tianyun’s eyes flickered as he smiled.
“I have a good idea. If you can lure Sacred Peak God Domain’s Grand Elder here, I can help you deal with him. When that happens, you’ll be free.”
“Is that true?” Yu Qin Divine Lord hated Sacred Peak God Domain to the core. Unfortunately, because of her oath, she couldn’t resist them.
“Of course it’s true. It just depends on how you lure them here.” Yi Tianyun smiled.
Yu Qin Divine Lord thought for a moment, then said,
“That won’t be a problem. Luring them here isn’t difficult—but we’ll need to deal with the other scouts first. Otherwise, it’ll be hard to manage.”
“That’s easy. Just wait here for a moment.”
Yi Tianyun’s figure vanished instantly. Yu Qin Divine Lord froze—she had no idea how he disappeared. Though confused, she didn’t leave and simply waited nearby.
After a short while, Yi Tianyun reappeared in front of her and casually tossed several storage rings over.
“These are their belongings. I’ve taken care of them all.”
“What?!” Yu Qin Divine Lord was dumbfounded. She took the storage rings and quickly checked them—inside were indeed the scouts’ possessions. Not a single one was missing. All of them had been dealt with.
The death of the scouts itself wasn’t that shocking. The shocking part was that they had been scattered across different areas. To eliminate them all, one would have had to track them down one by one.
Yet Yi Tianyun had accomplished it all in such a short time—effortlessly.
“Well? Now that they’re taken care of, things should be much easier, right?” Yi Tianyun said with a faint smile.
“Try to lure over more strong experts—let me deal with them all at once.”
“Th-this…” Yu Qin Divine Lord still hadn’t fully recovered. After a moment, she raised her head and asked,
“How did you do it? Some kind of special teleportation technique?”
“You could say that.” Yi Tianyun looked at her.
“By the way, when you go back, won’t they inspect your memories or interrogate you?”
“That won’t be an issue.” Yu Qin Divine Lord smiled.
“The oath I made isn’t a slave oath, so I still have some freedom. With a bit of disguise, they won’t suspect a thing. Besides, even if they interrogate me, what could they possibly find out?”
Yi Tianyun paused. Thinking about it, she was right. From start to finish, Yu Qin Divine Lord hadn’t asked for much detail—only expressed shock at his strength. Even if she were questioned, all she could say was that Yi Tianyun was powerful. The only one who’d be in trouble would be Yu Qin Divine Lord herself—she’d probably be doomed.
“Since you’re that confident, I’ll leave it to you.” Yi Tianyun nodded.
“Oh, right.” Yu Qin Divine Lord suddenly smiled mysteriously.
“If I succeed in luring them here and you help me deal with them, can I make a request?”
“A request?” Yi Tianyun raised an eyebrow. “I’m already giving you your freedom… but fine. Tell me.”
“I want to join your faction!” Yu Qin Divine Lord clapped her hands and smiled brightly.
“Is that acceptable?”
