Chapter 825: Chapter 348: The Key to Ning Qi’s Victory (2)

Ning Qi said, ”All troops heed my command. After stepping into the Teleportation Gate, do not act recklessly without my instruction, lest you be detected by the opponent.”

Everyone responded in unison, ”Yes!”

Ning Qi shouted loudly, ”Go!”

He wore a white robe and was the first to fly toward the Teleportation Gate.

The crowd immediately followed behind.

Ren Boping and others experienced the Teleportation Gate for the first time with an incredible sensation, unlike the imagined dark skies, without the dizzy feeling of crossing the void.

Only a brief blackout in front of their eyes, and they crossed the void in moments.

When their senses returned, everyone gazed ahead, discovering they’d arrived near the war zone of this domain’s two armies.

Ren Boping, Jiang Yuyue, and Lang Yingying’s pupils shrank sharply; their first thought was whether they had been discovered.

But glancing at the chaotic army ahead, no one had noticed their arrival.

Considering that after uniting with Ning Qi’s forces, they totaled four territories and a half of cultivators, crossing realms through the Teleportation Gate would have been expected, but remaining unnoticed was astonishing, leaving them impressed with Ning Qi’s formidable ability!

”Domain Master Ning, what should we do now?”

Lang Yingying asked softly.

She, as a mermaid demon king, excelled in illusion techniques and water element rules, so Ning Qi assigned her to the corresponding team in the army.

Ren Boping and Jiang Yuyue also focused on Ning Qi, awaiting his orders.

Ren Boping specialized in attacks and was placed in the attack array by Ning Qi, while Jiang Yuyue, a great demon king, was assigned to the Demon Race team with Niu Dingtian.

Participating in such an unconventional battle for the first time, they relied solely on Ning Qi’s command.

Ning Qi glanced at the chaotic army battle ahead, carefully observing the combat situation.

Soon, he devised a strategy.

Ning Qi immediately transmitted instructions to everyone, readjusted the formation, then waved his hand.

”Go, follow me!”

Lang Yingying wasn’t offended that he didn’t respond to her, instead finding his focused demeanor exceptionally brilliant.

Having arranged everything, winning the present battle was naturally no difficult task, much like rescuing Ren Boping and others.

After a brief moment, Ning Qi led the army to completely rescue the cultivators of this domain and annihilate all the Vast Realm cultivators.

The leader of this domain’s cultivators was a nine-headed sea serpent demon; previously within the army, each head unleashed different rules and divine techniques, its powerful body charging violently, killing many Vast Realm cultivators.

Now transformed into human form, it appeared as a handsome, androgynous man named Qing Chu Lan.

He was overjoyed when Ren Boping and others arrived to help.

Subsequently, under Ren Boping and others’ guidance, he came to pay respects to Ning Qi.

”Domain Master Ning, I am the Domain Master of Sea Serpent Domain, Qing Chu Lan, thankful for the rescue!”

This Qing Chu Lan seemed quite courteous, with a respectful expression, likely informed by Ren Boping and others about Ning Qi’s situation.

Ning Qi said, ”No need for courtesy. We are all cultivators under Sea Ancestor’s banner, and mutual assistance is our duty.”

Qing Chu Lan smiled, ”Domain Master Ning, you saved us now; once we return to the Mountain and Sea Realm, we will surely credit you.”

Ning Qi glanced at Qing Chu Lan, surprised at his understanding of etiquette, pondering whether having nine heads makes one smarter.

Qing Chu Lan then led two more Domain Masters to meet Ning Qi, and then they exchanged views, discussing what to do next.

This time, Ren Boping and the other three completely looked to Ning Qi, already considering him their mainstay.

Ning Qi didn’t refuse, directly assigning tasks to each troop.

The immediate priority was to completely capture this domain.

Ning Qi entrusted Sword Ancestor and others to capture four previously designated nodes, while the other four nodes were allocated to Ren Boping and Qing Chu Lan.

As for Ning Qi himself, he continued to harvest six hidden nodes, integrating them into the True Martial Realm.

After receiving the Mountain and Sea Realm Will’s reward, Ning Qi once again led the army to break through the Boundary Wall between Central Domain and Lower Realm.

Then, following the same process, subdued the Lower Realm.

Thus, Ning Qi, upon harvesting six hidden nodes from Lower Realm, Sword Ancestor and others finally captured the last node there.

With the last node captured, they had now completely subdued the entire Southern War Realm.

Everyone distinctly felt rapid changes happening within.

The entire Lower Realm trembled, and not only that, terrifying roaring sounds came from the north.

Everyone hurriedly flew into the sky, gazing north.

The north was exactly where they crossed the Boundary Wall on arrival.

At this moment, the vast Boundary Wall suddenly shattered, turning into energy and infusing the surrounding area.

Ning Qi directly teleported alone to the vicinity.

He frowned slightly, inspecting everything.

The Boundary Wall shattered, transforming into energy infusing the Boundary Wall above and below, Ning Qi clearly felt the space within was more stable.

Yet the change wasn’t complete, Ning Qi once again traversed space, instantly crossing the Central Domain to the boundary between Central Domain and Upper Realm.

At this moment, the Boundary Wall here was also undergoing changes.

Ning Qi perceived the energy of the Mountain and Sea Realm crushing and shattering the Boundary Wall.

Beside Ning Qi, the Mountain and Sea Realm Will’s apparition emerged.

Regarding the unpredictable apparition, Ning Qi now remained extremely calm, as he himself was a Realm Lord, deeply understanding this ability.

Ning Qi said, ”Realm Venerable, is this what happens after fully occupying a great domain?”

The Mountain and Sea Realm Will’s apparition looked at Ning Qi appreciatively, then replied:

”Now that the Southern War Realm has been completely occupied by the True Self, the blockage within can be removed, turning the entire Southern Domain into a seamless area.”

Ning Qi asked, ”Does this mean the Unity Realm can now descend into this domain?”

The apparition shook its head.

”It will take some time; once the Southern Domain completely absorbs the Boundary Wall’s energy, I will further fortify it, and then the Unity Realm can descend within.”

Ning Qi nodded, then inquired:

”Realm Venerable, you can now enter and exit this domain freely; why send people in, does the Vast Realm stand any chance with you here?”

The Mountain and Sea Realm Will suddenly laughed and replied:

”The True Self is a Realm Venerable; the power to fully exert cannot be borne by this War Realm, dictated by the spatial limit. Once I stabilize the space, it can only bear the Unity Realm’s strength.”

”Therefore, at most, I can only exert Unity Realm power within; previously, capturing nodes was necessary for me to exert power, precisely so.”

Ning Qi instantly understood.

However, based on his experience as a Realm Lord, Ning Qi felt the Mountain and Sea Realm hadn’t been entirely transparent.

That being, the effective range of the Mountain and Sea Realm’s Will is limited by region!

Because it is the Mountain and Sea Realm!

Its strength primarily lies within the Mountain and Sea Realm regions, not outside, at most influencing externally but unable to be truly invincible outside the Mountain and Sea Realm.

Otherwise, it could continue expanding the Mountain and Sea Realm’s territory!

Clearly, this isn’t possible, as the Mountain and Sea Realm has already expanded to its maximum limit; if any more capacity remains, why not continue expanding?

Naturally, Ning Qi also shares similar limitations.

For instance, his main body being the True Martial Realm Master, cannot exert power outside True Martial Realm by normal convention.

Yet Ning Qi, unlike the Mountain and Sea Realm and the Vast Realm, is human, having erased the True Martial Realm’s Will, becoming the True Martial Realm’s Will himself, but he remains human.

Ning Qi can be seen as an anomaly, neither purely human nor purely a Realm; he is both human and the True Martial Realm.

Thus, Ning Qi naturally surpasses both Mountain and Sea Realm and Vast Realm!

Moreover, Ning Qi can separate his soul to create this reincarnated form.

The reincarnated form is akin to his avatar, maintaining close ties with the main body, transferring power between them anytime.

At this moment, Ning Qi suddenly understood the difference between himself and the Mountain and Sea Realm and Vast Realm.

His eyes sparkled, knowing that in this Spirit Realm war, due to his anomalous presence, the balance of victory will not favor the two realms but gradually tilt towards him!

”Realm Venerable, now that the Southern War Realm is subdued, what should I do next?”

Ning Qi, although having his strategy, still wanted to ask the Mountain and Sea Realm Will, curious about its thoughts.
