Chapter 153: Fan Wei's Shock

The audience watching the battle was utterly dumbfounded. What kind of maneuver was this? How could someone condense a Domain before even comprehending Martial Intent?

The moment Jiang Yan unleashed his Chaotic Void Domain, it truly felt shocking, leading many spectators to believe he had already reached the Source Domain Realm.

Above True Intent lies the Source Domain. Simply put, the Source Domain is the sum total of everything a Martial Artist has learned up to that point.

The Source Domain encompasses Qi, Spiritual Power, Martial Intent, and insights into the Martial Way—an extremely abstract concept. It essentially summarizes a Martial Artist’s entire journey up to that point and manifests it in the form of a Domain.

Within the Source Domain Realm, the Domain represents the Martial Artist’s strongest form.

The Source Domain Realm is the inheritance and evolution of the Martial Way by Martial Artists on Tianyuan Star, integrating the wisdom of Tianyuan Star and even other Transcendent Civilizations. By now, it has become highly refined.

The Chaotic Void Domain Jiang Yan had just unleashed bore such a striking resemblance to the Domains recognized by the people of Tianyuan Star that most mistakenly believed Jiang Yan had already fused his Martial Way and condensed his own Domain.

But upon careful thought, was this even remotely reasonable?

Even cheating shouldn’t work like this, right?

Could it be that Jiang Yan was truly, as online rumors suggested, a reincarnated being who had cultivated for tens of thousands of years before being reborn?

His growth rate was almost on par with that of a demon. Just who was the demon here—Pei Qin or you?

In reality, Jiang Yan’s Chaotic Void Domain was simply condensed from Chaotic Void Primordial Qi, its essence being the fundamental energy of the universe—Qi.

As for the kind of Domain they imagined, encompassing abstract substances like Spiritual Power, Qi, and Martial Intent, it had absolutely nothing to do with the Chaotic Void Domain.

So why could a Domain be condensed using only Qi?

Jiang Yan himself only had a vague understanding of this.

Chaotic Void Primordial Qi evolved from Geng Metal Primordial Qi, and this evolution was entirely driven by the overpowered Trait, “Heaven Rewards Diligence.”

Who knew why Geng Metal Primordial Qi had grown into its current bizarre form? After all, even Geng Metal Primordial Qi was obtained thanks to Heaven Rewards Diligence!

From the very beginning, Jiang Yan’s cultivation had spiraled out of control.

On the surface, Jiang Yan’s cultivation seemed to follow the established path step by step, but in reality, it had already deviated from the Martial Way philosophies of Blue Star and even Tianyuan Star.

On Tianyuan Star, Martial Artists must absorb Qi that shares the same origin as their Primordial Qi, just like on Blue Star.

As for non-human races, although their cultivation methods differ in form, their core principles are largely similar—they only absorb Qi related to their Primordial Qi. This has become a consensus in cultivation.

During the Geng Metal Primordial Qi stage, Jiang Yan was still relatively normal. But once Chaotic Void Primordial Qi was born, everything went haywire.

Chaotic Void Primordial Qi was practically indiscriminate—it devoured whatever it encountered. It wasn’t limited to various types of Qi; sometimes it even swallowed energy-based substances.

From the moment of its birth, it could already condense a “Domain.”

Jiang Yan had previously found it useful without questioning it, but after seeing the astonished expressions of these True Intent Martial Artists, he realized:

“I might have stumbled upon incredible luck…”

His gaze shifted to the other ten individuals, noticing their expressions had now turned completely blank.

As Jiang Yan looked toward them, they couldn’t help but shrink back in fear, their faces etched with terror as they stared at Jiang Yan as if he were a monster.

Jiang Yan waved at them with a smile. After glancing at the bionic dragonfly hovering in the air, his spiritual power sensed its internal mechanical structure, instantly understanding its purpose.

“Good afternoon, everyone.”

He even had the mood to greet these audience members.

“He’s really… I’m moved to tears.”

“Hello to you too, but could you explain what’s going on with your domain? Are you really the reincarnation of a legendary great master?”

“Holy shit, this is fucking amazing! Now I finally believe he has the strength to slay a Demon Lord!”

“Indeed, fame is not without merit. Jiang Yan truly possesses the power to kill a demon!”

“Whether that’s a domain or not, Jiang Yan’s god-like performance just now has already proven he’s the one who slew the demon.”

Jiang Yan couldn’t see these comments. The only one who could view the content, Han Wu, was now unconscious.

Yet the bionic dragonfly remained suspended high above, continuing to live stream everything happening here.

…

Myriad Pottery Academy.

Fan Wei’s office.

Fan Wei glared at the live stream, watching Han Wu being supported by others with a mix of frustration and disappointment. He wished he could transmigrate over to replace Han Wu and continue fighting Jiang Yan.

“It’s over, it’s over. Not only did we fail to restore our academy’s reputation this time, but we’ve made that kid even more arrogant.”

Fan Wei kept muttering to himself, feeling his face burn with shame.

Jiang Yan didn’t even know him, yet he had already suffered several setbacks at Jiang Yan’s hands. Wasn’t this like grabbing someone else’s hand to slap his own face?

One word described it: aggrieved!

“That kid has already reached the Source Domain Realm. Even Chang Yin, the strongest in our Myriad Pottery Academy, is still far from this realm. There’s no hope of saving face now.”

Fan Wei sighed, believing no one could defeat Jiang Yan anymore, and that Myriad Pottery Academy would ultimately become a stepping stone in Jiang Yan’s rise.

But upon careful reflection, Fan Wei grew increasingly puzzled.

“Wait, the domain he displayed earlier was somewhat strange!”

In his panic, Fan Wei had mistakenly assumed Jiang Yan’s Chaotic Void Domain was the “domain” of the Source Domain Realm.

But at his level, his perception of energy had become extremely acute. When comparing Jiang Yan’s “domain” with the “domain” he understood, numerous inconsistencies immediately became apparent.

Fan Wei knew exactly how a domain should manifest and could detect even the slightest environmental changes caused by energy fluctuations.

It was only because he was too shocked, combined with the limitations of the live stream footage, that he overlooked these glaringly obvious factors.

“This isn’t a domain!”

“It’s more like Qi… Hmm… no, this Qi feels strange… Could it be due to differences between Blue Star’s cultivation system and ours?”

For a moment, Fan Wei couldn’t pinpoint what was strange about Jiang Yan’s Qi. But upon realizing Jiang Yan’s domain wasn’t truly a “domain,” he couldn’t help but feel relieved.

“Thank goodness! As long as he hasn’t reached the Source Domain Realm, there’s still room to salvage the situation!”

His eyes burned with intensity, as if engaged in a silent contest with Jiang Yan.

But from beginning to end… Jiang Yan had never paid any attention to this “him.”

Fan Wei hadn’t realized this yet. At his status, his Martial Way realm could no longer advance. Having held a high position for too long, he had instead come to value superficial matters like “face” as supremely important.

As if defeating Jiang Yan would mean victory…

He hurriedly straightened his appearance, muttering to himself.

“From the looks of it now, even if the remaining nine Martial Artists with True Intent joined forces, they would still be no match for Jiang Yan.”

“Then, we can only rely on him…”

Fan Wei’s eyes reignited with confidence as he decisively ran out of the office.

After carefully tidying his appearance, he politely put on a smile and headed in a certain direction.
