Zhang Shutong sacrifices himself to buy Li Chen time, unleashing a devastating attack on Jian Liu. Li Chen, contemplating his own path to the Palm Realm, is guided by the Seven Realms Tome to recall his original desire for a peaceful home. Embracing this, Li Chen enters his minor world and begins its creation, transforming it into a vibrant, living space.

Creation also has grades.

For example, back when Li Chen created the Five Elements Dragon within the Domain Realm.

Though it possessed considerable spirituality, ultimately it was just composed of pure laws, and the increasingly spiritual Five Elements Dragon was merely a tool for slaughter.

But at this moment, in the minor world, Li Chen created true life!

Even if it’s just the tiniest of insectoids, it’s still real life.

Unknowingly, Li Chen’s Life Law was quietly undergoing metamorphosis.

All of this was witnessed by the Supreme Treasure and the Seven Realms Tome, yet no one interrupted Li Chen’s thoughts.

However, they knew that at this time, Li Chen was already walking a path that no one had ever traversed before.

This is a broad and open road that surpasses the Way of the Palm Realm, a Heaven-reaching Dao that exists only in imagination and has never been dared nor achieved by anyone!

The Way of Creation!

Aside from the possibly existent creator, throughout the countless eras and epochs since the universe’s birth, no one has ever walked such a path.

Creation has always been something considered only after reaching the Peak of the Palm Realm, stuck at the final layer of the Heaven-Shrouding Realm.

No one ever dared to consider creation before entering the Palm Realm.

Therefore, no one knows if creation can truly be a Way of the Palm Realm.

Of course, throughout the ages, there have been some heaven-defying geniuses who attempted creation, but they all ultimately died.

Because, what they discovered about creation was not actual ’creation’; it always consumed their own life force.

Even if they created a powerful exotic beast, it always required extracting their own life as a premise, which is more splitting than creation.

But Li Chen now is truly engaging in creation.

Creating life and his homeland within his world.

Though this world is still too small, almost negligible compared to the Starry Universe.

However, this space originally existed as a substitute for a storage ring Li Chen couldn’t afford, yet silently it became an existence of equal rank with the Starry Universe.

Because it exists independently.

It neither depends on nor requires any space or world.

So, it’s neither a minor world, nor any Great Realm of the Starry Universe.

But a world... that belongs solely to Li Chen.

Or perhaps call it... a universe.

...

The slaughter outside continues incessantly, but with the passage of time, the battle grew ever more brutal.

The Demon Ancestor and the Palm Realm fighters fought to the point both were seriously injured, seemingly about to enter a life-or-death phase.

And Behemoth, too, became bloodthirsty from battle, even though suppressed, turned even more berserk, opening the Behemoth Clan’s innate berserk mode, using a hastily pieced together Pseudo-Universe to perish together with the opponent’s Pseudo-Universe, charging into the shattered Pseudo-Universe to engage in a desperate struggle with the Palm Realm fighter.

With powerful close combat instincts, even Li Chen can only retreat from Behemoth’s close combat prowess, forcefully gaining an advantage from a position of disadvantage.

Coming from the Beast God Civilization, also skilled in close combat, the Palm Realm powerhouse was still overwhelmed by the berserker Behemoth.

Although the notion of close combat invincibility at the same level had some exaggeration for the Behemoth Clan, without such formidable abilities, they wouldn’t have such fierce titles.

Though how long this upper hand can be maintained depends entirely on how long Behemoth’s berserk mode lasts.

Only the Palm Realm fighter fighting Suan Tian raged inside.

Suan Tian was in the same realm as him, but in terms of combat power, the two were simply not on the same level.

Strangely, Suan Tian’s attacks were little more than tickles to him, yet he couldn’t touch Suan Tian at all.

This guy’s movements seemed able to predict his actions precisely, causing nearly every attack to miss.

Even if they didn’t miss, at most they just grazed the edges, but under the formidable function of the Pseudo-Universe, such grazing brought no injury.

"Damn loach, is running all you’re good for?!" the Soul Tribe Palm Realm powerhouse shouted angrily.

"Of course not." Suan Tian laughed and shook his head: "I also know how to attack."

With that, Suan Tian raised his hand, releasing a Finger Beam aimed at the Soul Tribe powerhouse’s Pseudo-Universe which exploded with a ’pop’.

Though called an attack, clearly, this Finger Beam couldn’t even damage the Pseudo-Universe’s protection, more of an insult than harm to the Soul Tribe powerhouse.

He finally realized, Suan Tian was teasing him all along.

"I’ll tear your soul and refine your spirit!!"

The enraged Soul Tribe powerhouse finally couldn’t resist erupting, with the Pseudo-Universe compressing instantly, simultaneously gathering great momentum from heaven and earth toward him, seemingly pulling endless souls from around the Starry Sky to roar over, becoming his strength.

"Soul Tribulation Funeral!"

Accompanied by the Soul Tribe powerhouse’s fierce ghost-like howls, endless You Hun transformed into a huge sphere, resembling a universe, biting toward Suan Tian.

Upon the immense Soul Sphere were countless ghastly, horrifying faces, as if tortured by the world’s most fearful agony, uttering the most painful cries.

This time, Suan Tian’s calculation and prediction were clearly ineffective, as this celestial-like enormous soul body tracked him directly.

Suan Tian’s face turned solemn, summoning a Turtle Shell.

Under Suan Tian’s manipulation, the Turtle Shell swiftly opened, immediately transforming into a giant shield that blocked the soul body.

"Boom!!!"

The enormous soul body slammed heavily into the Turtle Shell, and it was visible that upon impact, dense cracks began to appear on the massive Turtle Shell.

Unwilling to feel heartache, Suan Tian immediately abandoned the Turtle Shell, turning to flee.

During his escape, he didn’t forget to throw several sparkling Gold Coins, attempting to seal the soul body.

Yet the soul body proved too terrifying, within a few breaths, it tore through the Turtle Shell, and even several Copper Coins shattered entirely after a short resistance.

"Damn it, these Era-Ancient Civilization people, each one more brutal and savage than the last. I’m not professionally trained for fighting, Li the Kid, if you don’t hurry, I’m afraid my little life will end here." Suan Tian rapidly calculated with his fingers, while strenuously using the Pseudo-Universe to counter the enormous soul body, his face turning pale as he spoke.

"Crack!"

Not long into Suan Tian’s escape, the soul body smashed a corner of Suan Tian’s Pseudo-Universe, sending Suan Tian and his whole being flying far away.

The Soul Tribe powerhouse grinned viciously.

"Though your strength is helplessly weak, at least you’re a Palm Realm fighter, your soul, I shall claim!"
