As Lin Fei finished speaking, a white glow emanated from him. This radiance, rippling like waves on water, rapidly spread in all directions. But these were not ordinary ripples; they were the expansion of Lin Fei's Saber World.
The Saber World expanded continuously - ten meters, a hundred meters, then a mile, ten miles, a hundred miles, reaching a thousand miles. It seemed to hit its limit, unable to spread any further.
"Can't expand anymore?" Lin Fei murmured to himself, not surprised, as if he had anticipated this.
Previously, Lin Fei had used his Saber World to sweep through the entire True Spirit Realm. Now, he didn't need to 'sweep' through; he just needed to expand his Saber World as much as possible, even if it meant sacrificing its power.
"World laws, expand!" he commanded.
The next moment, something within Lin Fei's Saber World seemed to 'peel away' – these were the world laws. Each law capable of creating a world could naturally expand the Saber World.
Previously, these world laws were merged with the Saber World, significantly enhancing its power. When integrated, the laws could increase the Saber World's power tenfold or even a hundredfold, allowing Lin Fei's Saber World to subdue Martial Gods and Deity Transformation cultivators.
With the separation of the world laws, Lin Fei's Saber World was purely for expansion, lacking the enhancement of these laws. As a result, it couldn't suppress Martial Gods or Deity Transformation cultivators.
However, Lin Fei had no intention of using the Saber World for suppression. His aim was to cover the entire Heavenly Principle Realm with it, facilitating a better reception of the world origin. Clearing the area was just a secondary objective.
Under the cover of the Saber World, Lin Fei could teleport instantaneously, possessing the ability to traverse the void akin to a True Monarch.
"Is this Lin Fei's Saber World?"
"We know Lin Fei has a Saber World, but why has it expanded so much? Is he trying to cover the entire Heavenly Principle Realm?"
"Though the range of the Saber World has increased, it doesn't seem to be suppressing us. We can break free from it anytime, can't we?"
Indeed, many Deity Transformation cultivators, initially panicked, soon calmed down upon realizing the Saber World's power was weaker than they expected. No matter how strong a Martial God was, he was still just one person. Even if he killed them one by one, how long would that take?
After all, for a Martial God to slay an avatar of a Deity Transformation cultivator, it would require a long journey. And these avatars wouldn't just wait to be slain by Lin Fei; they could flee. If they played a game of hide-and-seek with Lin Fei, dragging out time, how many could he actually kill?
When the Heavenly Principle Realm collapsed and the world origin appeared, there would still be many Deity Transformation avatars to seize it. This seemed like an unsolvable situation. A Martial God, after all, was different from a Deity Transformation; they didn't have as many avatars and couldn't dominate the source of a small world alone.
Stolen from its original source, this story is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.
Ignoring these Deity Transformation cultivators, Lin Fei continued to expand his Saber World. One law, two laws, three laws... He utilized nearly all eighteen world laws, covering about eighty percent of the Heavenly Principle Realm. Although not entirely enveloping it, it was satisfactory for Lin Fei.
Covering eighty percent of the Heavenly Principle Realm meant that Lin Fei could potentially obtain eighty percent of the world origin. Moreover, after clearing the area, he would have time to collect the remaining origin, possibly securing it all, provided it didn't dissipate too quickly.
However, the first step was to 'clear the field,' as the presence of Deity Transformation cultivators in the realm remained an obstacle. Even though his Saber World couldn't block these cultivators, their reliance on numerous avatars was now a weakness.
Within the Saber World, Lin Fei could pinpoint the location of every avatar of the Deity Transformation cultivators. This knowledge was sufficient.
Within the Saber World, these avatars were mere sitting ducks. Instantly, Lin Fei vanished. In his Saber World, he was the dominator, and instantaneous movement was effortless, not straining him in the least.
At that moment, True Person Moke, with dozens of battle avatars and tens of thousands of ordinary avatars, controlled a significant force within the Heavenly Principle Realm. He hadn't left, defiantly declaring, "Others may fear you, Lin Fei, but I, True Person Moke, do not. I've been planning in the Heavenly Principle Realm for three thousand years, and I'm on the verge of reaping the rewards. You want me to leave now? Let's see how you handle my tens of thousands of avatars."
True Person Moke had invested too much in the Heavenly Principle Realm to leave easily. Departing would mean all his efforts were in vain, a cost he couldn't afford. However, the next moment, a figure suddenly appeared before True Person Moke.
"Lin Fei? How did you get here so quickly?" Moke was taken aback, knowing the distance Lin Fei had covered in such a short time was immense. It was akin to the spatial traversal capabilities of a True Monarch.
True Person Moke's mind flashed with insight as he realized the reason behind Lin Fei's actions.
"Could it be instantaneous movement within the Saber World?" As the master of the Saber World, Lin Fei indeed had the ability to move instantaneously within it. True Person Moke had almost forgotten this critical detail. Now he understood why Lin Fei kept expanding his Saber World – it enabled him to move instantly. In the Saber World, Lin Fei was effectively as powerful as a True Monarch.
"Lin Fei, what if you kill this avatar of mine?" True Person Moke said calmly, showing no fear. "Even if you kill all my main battle avatars, I still have ordinary ones. Your expanded Saber World can't suppress the avatars of us Deity Transformation cultivators. Once the Heavenly Principle Realm collapses and the world origin appears, our ordinary avatars can still seize it!"
True Person Moke was surprisingly calm, even though Lin Fei's ability to move instantaneously was unexpected. He had already thought of a countermeasure. Lin Fei frowned at the mention of 'ordinary avatars.' Indeed, this was a problem. Deity Transformation cultivators could create countless ordinary avatars, and Lin Fei's expanded Saber World could not kill these avatars.
"Thank you for the reminder," Lin Fei said. "The ordinary avatars of Deity Transformation cultivators are indeed troublesome. However, there is a solution. Do Deity Transformation cultivators truly never die?"
A sharp glint flashed in Lin Fei's eyes. He recalled the memories of the mirage beast, which he had controlled using a special method. He knew that the mirage beast had effortlessly killed North Wind True Person. Others might not be able to kill Deity Transformation cultivators, but the mirage beast was their nemesis!
Lin Fei hadn't fully refined the mirage beast but had integrated it with his Saber World to form a grand formation – the Ten Directions Heavenly Formation. The next moment, he deployed the formation, and instantly, the mirage beast's illusion descended, successfully pulling True Person Moke into the illusion.
