I tricked you into thinking you had the makings of an emperor, but you actually did it?

"Senior Brother Wuji, you..."

Zhou Jing and Dong Qian still couldn't accept it because it was illogical for Shen Ming to step forward at this time.

If Jun Luo hadn't laughed loudly, one would have suspected that Shen Ming was planted by the Heavenly God Palace.

Shen Ming withdrew his saintly aura and revealed his true realm.

Lesser Imperial Realm!

The two girls were pale-faced, their feelings indescribable, and they couldn't wrap their heads around it.

In Blackrock City, the receptionist Lin Ya looked embarrassed, but not angry.

Shen Ming didn't lie to her; on the contrary, he was very generous.

Zhou Jing and Dong Qian gradually came to their senses and, like Lin Ya, found themselves unable to complain.

Shen Ming's good intentions were genuine, and he even stepped forward at this crucial moment.

"Senior Brother Wuji, you wanted to help, but you were afraid we wouldn't believe you, so you resorted to this tactic, right?" Zhou Jing said timidly, taking the initiative to exonerate him.

Dong Qian opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but couldn't come up with anything.

At this moment, Chi Linghua and another Tianjie attacked Li Zibai.

As a sword cultivator, Li Zibai's combat power needs to be increased by 40% to 50% on top of his original level.

Li Zibai soared into the sky, reaching a high altitude to avoid the battle affecting other Sword Palace disciples.

He didn't expect the disciples of the Sword Palace to be able to contend with those at the Saint Realm.

At this moment, he could no longer hope for anything and devoted himself wholeheartedly to the sword.

"Those who resist, die!"

At the same time, two other outstanding talents attacked more than ten disciples of the Sword Palace.

The disciples of the Sword Palace formed a sword formation, which could temporarily withstand the Saint Realm and prevent them from being defeated in one blow.

Shen Ming was not a disciple of the Sword Palace, and his independent presence outside made him stand out conspicuously.

"die!"

The man closest to Shen Ming, Tian Jie, was a burly middle-aged man.

Clad in heavy black armor, his aura was as deep and imposing as a mountain, and his body shimmered with a rich, earthy yellow light.

His name is Yue Gang, and he uses the Heaven-Suppressing Divine Fist!

This punch seemed to tear the heavens and earth apart. The fist light rose suddenly like a blazing sun, shooting straight into the sky. In an instant, the entire sky outside Blackstone City was shrouded in dazzling yellow light.

Within the light of the fist, there seemed to be phantom images of mountains, each one incredibly heavy, carrying an aura of suppressing everything.

Shen Ming remained motionless, his eyes slightly lowered, his gaze as calm as a deep pool.

On the contrary, the Great Luo Sword was restless, emitting sword light.

Jian Li couldn't contain herself and was eager to see a miracle happen.

"Boundless Sword Domain, open!"

Shen Ming said in a deep voice.

In an instant, a dazzling sword light shot into the sky, each beam of light flashing with a cold gleam and faintly carrying the sound of thunder.

These sword lights quickly wove together into an extremely mysterious domain.

The array of stars twinkled like a vast galaxy hanging upside down in the sky.

The sword domain surrounded Shen Ming, with thousands of sword shadows flowing around it as it rotated, emitting a deep and rhythmic hum as it operated.

Each sword light exuded extreme sharpness, as if it could sever all shackles in the world.

"Boom!" The fist light crashed into the sword domain like a torrent, unable to budge it in the slightest, bursting out with dazzling light and a deafening roar.

The terrifying aftershocks swept around, and the cultivators watching the battle in Blackstone City felt an overwhelming pressure coming towards them. Many of them were even shaken and forced to retreat.

People first looked away, then looked up at the sky, and found that the Boundless Sword Domain covered the sky.

A huge square grid, hundreds of feet long and wide.

The most amazing thing is that it is not isolated from the outside world, and people outside can still see the sword domain clearly.

"His sword strike was undoubtedly from the Saint Realm?"

"Is this the kind of commotion that a Royal Realm expert could cause? Could it be that they're about to kill a Saint?"

"Impossible! In an entire era, no one in the Sovereign Realm has ever killed an enemy of a higher realm using conventional combat power!"

Yue Gang stood within the sword domain, his gaze sharp as torches. The earthen-yellow radiance of his heavy armor grew ever more dazzling. He clenched his fists, his aura rising steadily, like an awakened ancient mountain, causing the heavens and earth to rumble.

"A domain? With your Emperor Realm cultivation, how long can you hold out!"

Yue Gang roared like thunder, unleashing both fists simultaneously. The fists shone with boundless light, their intent like mountains and rivers collapsing. The entire wilderness was enveloped in a violent force, seemingly about to burst the sword domain.

"How long can you hold out?" Shen Ming asked with a cold smile.

The power of the sword domain is not a one-time event, but rather depends on the duration of its effect.

Limitless, boundless, all-encompassing, without time constraints.

"Chaos Calamity Sword!"

In an instant, the sword domain changed, and the surrounding scenery transformed into an endless ocean of sword light. Every ray of light was a sword intent, and every fluctuation was filled with a piercing sharpness.

Yue Gang's fist light became sluggish in this sword domain. Every inch it advanced was cut and weakened by countless sword energies. In the collision of sharpness and ferocity, his momentum was suppressed and he retreated step by step.

"Who exactly is the Holy Realm?!" someone exclaimed.

Yue Gang roared in resentment, and his fist light erupted once again, crushing the sword energy with immense force.

However, within the sword domain, swords rang out and roared, and sword intent converged from all directions, condensing into a giant thunder sword that hung high above Yue Gang's head.

The giant sword sliced ​​through the sky, descending with unparalleled sword intent.

The moment the fists collided, they were as fragile as paper.

The giant sword continued to fall, cleaving Yue Gang away.

His heavy armor cracked, blood gushed from his mouth, and he became weak and listless.

"Impossible... I am a Saint Realm expert..." he said in disbelief.

"He didn't die immediately? It seems there's room for improvement," Shen Ming murmured.

Upon hearing this, Yue Gang's eyes widened, he spat out a mouthful of blood, his fists fell limply, and he died unwilling to accept his fate.

"The Saint, the Saint Realm has fallen!"

"The Four Great Heroes, slay them with a single sword strike!"

"Holy crap, what level is he at? He should be at the Saint Realm!"

Blackrock City was in an uproar; this sudden reversal almost broke someone's back.

For the first time in thousands of years, a Royal Realm expert has killed a Saint Realm expert!

Moreover, it was so clean and decisive, demonstrating an overwhelming advantage.

They even suspected that Shen Ming might be faking his Emperor Realm status while actually being a Saint Realm expert, deliberately teasing them.

"Senior Brother Wuji..."

Upon witnessing this scene, Dong Qian and Zhou Jing's pupils shone brightly, their chests heaved, their breathing became heavy, and their skin flushed.

Shen Ming looked at them, smiled gently, and indicated that they didn't need to worry.

Meeting Shen Ming's deep and bright gaze, both girls trembled slightly.

After that, Shen Ming sent all the Sword Palace disciples away.

In the Sword Domain, he is the ruler.

The next second, he looked at Jun Luo of the Heavenly God Palace.

This peerless prodigy of the Celestial Race is a young powerhouse who has killed an ancient saint.

At this moment, his face was tense, and his eyes were deep.

"Why did you stop laughing?" Shen Ming asked.

Just now, Junluo laughed until tears streamed down her face.

Jun Luo surveyed the sword domain and sneered, "You think you've already won?"

"Did you think that was the strongest sword strike from my sword domain just now?" Shen Ming asked.

Jun Luo's forced smile vanished.
