Chapter 352: The Only Survivor

The Third Demon Emperor raised his eyebrows slightly. “Interesting. A human can actually use a dragon clan domain…”
Zi Ji Zunzhe was initially shocked by the density and size of that domain. Hearing what the Third Demon Emperor said, he was even more astonished. He hadn’t been entirely sure that it was indeed a dragon clan domain, thinking it was just similar in color. As one of the most powerful beings in the Immortal Realm, he knew well that the dragon clan’s domain inheritance was beyond what humans could comprehend. The fact that this guy named Dao Feng could use such a domain left him completely baffled.
At this moment, as the rules of the domain took effect, the original twenty-two people were divided into five groups. Four peak-level experts were separated alone, while the remaining eighteen late-stage experts were grouped together.
To those eighteen, the four peak-level experts were Dao Feng. And to those four peak-level experts, the other three peak-level experts were Dao Feng, with those eighteen being various late-stage magical beasts.
With this transformation, chaos ensued in Ye Feng’s domain without him even having to intervene.
Adding to this, Ye Feng deliberately made them hear only provocative words. As a result, any encounter between groups turned into a fierce battle.
Meanwhile, as the fight among the four peak-level experts began, to maintain balance, he also manipulated the group of eighteen. Every few minutes, he isolated one person from the group, making that person appear as himself in the eyes of the others. And that person saw the others as groups of magical beasts. This led to yet another chaotic chase.
In less than an hour, two of the four peak-level experts died from fighting each other, and the other two were seriously injured. The original group of eighteen was reduced to five, all of whom were exhausted.
Ye Feng appeared before those five. “Since you chose to chase me, you should be prepared for the consequences…”
“Haven’t you died yet?” The five were utterly helpless. Every time they thought they had killed Dao Feng, he reappeared.
“I never participated in your chase at all,” Ye Feng said with a sly smile. “Those you killed… are your own companions.”
As he spoke, he flicked his sleeve, and the body of the man who resembled Dao Feng, whom the five had been chasing, reverted to its original form.
The five were filled with horror. “What? Then those we chased before…”
“That’s right, they were all your companions…” Ye Feng said without hesitation.

“Despicable scoundrel!” one of the five cursed angrily.
“It’s just an auxiliary function of the domain. Who asked you to come at me in a group? If you had the guts, come alone, and you wouldn’t end up like this.” Ye Feng remained unfazed. They had gathered over twenty people to ambush him, yet now they accused him of being despicable—there was no need for him to explain anything.
“Besides, there are still seven of you left…” Ye Feng continued, “More than me!”
“You mean two peak experts have died?” Someone among the five immediately understood.
“I mean I deliberately left seven of them to test the power of my new technique,” Ye Feng said, slowly raising his right hand and pointing his index finger at the five of them.
A golden light flashed from his fingertip. The five didn’t even have time to scream in pain before they were turned into dust.
Seeing the five vanish instantly, Ye Feng frowned slightly. “What a domineering technique. I only simulated the initial move; the energy flow still followed the ‘Concentrate’ formula. Yet this energy completely escaped my control and launched an attack on its own…”
“However, these five were indeed too weak. They were wiped out in an instant… not even giving them a chance to resist. I didn’t even have time to figure out how this attack worked.” Ye Feng looked down at the space rings scattered on the ground, waved his sleeve, and collected them. Then he disappeared again.
The battle between the four peak experts had taken place in two places. The two survivors were the bald man, whose arm was also broken, leaving him with less than 10% of his original strength, and the shortest among the twenty-two who had fled the battlefield earlier to hide in a cave and recover. His condition was slightly better than the bald man’s, but the battle had drained nearly 80% of his energy.
As footsteps approached, the bald man looked toward the sound in pain. His expression soon turned to shock. “How is that possible? You were clearly killed by me just now…”
“If I’m here now, it means you killed the wrong person…” Ye Feng’s smile seemed terrifying to the bald man.
“A illusion?” The bald man quickly realized.

“No, it’s a nightmare…” Ye Feng said as he raised his hand, extending one finger just as before, and a golden light flashed. In an instant, the bald man’s body began to crumble, starting from the spot where he was hit in the chest and spreading outward. He screamed in pain, unable to do anything but watch as his body turned into fragments bit by bit.

In just a few seconds, the bald man’s terrified screams vanished completely, leaving only two storage rings and a few weapons on the ground.

“So that’s how it works…” Ye Feng stared thoughtfully in the direction where the bald man had disappeared. “Embed energy inside the enemy’s body, spread it throughout the body, then trigger an explosion to erase them completely.”

The death of the bald man finally helped him understand the mechanism behind that finger strike.

After figuring this out, he glanced at the rings and other items left on the ground, rolled up his sleeves, and put them all into his own rings. Then he walked in another direction.

Hearing footsteps at the entrance of the cave, the short man’s expression became uncertain.

“Heh, this is my domain. No matter where you hide, you can’t escape my sight.” Ye Feng walked up to him calmly.

“Are all the others dead?” the short man asked tentatively.

“That’s right. You’re the last one,” Ye Feng nodded.

“I noticed it when I killed that impostor earlier,” the short man said with a hint of helplessness in his eyes.

“Oh, why?” Ye Feng was curious.

“It’s simple. When fighting him, he didn’t use any of the functions of this domain at all.” The short man smirked, unsure whether he was mocking himself or Ye Feng. “So I’ve been wondering if the rules of your domain are some kind of illusion…”

“More or less!” Ye Feng had overlooked this flaw all along. If it weren’t for the other man’s reminder, he might have suffered a great loss here in the future.

“Can we make a deal?” The short man’s words came as a surprise to Ye Feng.

“A deal? If I kill you, won’t everything you have become mine?” Ye Feng knew that if the other man dared to talk about a deal, he must have something valuable to offer.

“I can give away everything I have!” The short man said as he removed the two storage rings from his fingers and threw them at Ye Feng’s feet. He even threw away his weapons and took off his armor.

“I truly mean it when I say I’m willing to make this deal with you,” the man said, raising his hands. “Weapons, armor, everything used for defense and attack, including all the belongings I carry. My strength now is only two-thirds of what it was at my peak. If you were to kill me now, it would take you nothing but a flick of your finger.”
“Then tell me,” Ye Feng replied, somewhat impressed by the man’s courage to face death head-on. He was also curious about what kind of deal the man had in mind.
“First, I promise that once I’m gone, I won’t mention anything that happens within your domain to anyone. Including the rules of your domain, your methods of attack… I can swear on that.” The short man took a deep breath. He knew his life hung in the balance and needed to give Ye Feng an answer that would satisfy him enough to let him escape.
“I know the entrance to a secret realm—one even more dangerous than the Black Magic Domain, filled with even more treasures!” At these words, Ye Feng perked up.
“How come I don’t know of any realm in the Demon Realm that’s more powerful than the Black Magic Domain?” Ye Feng was skeptical.
“Because only I in the entire Demon Realm know about this.” The short man met Ye Feng’s gaze unflinchingly, feeling no remorse. “I come from a lineage of tomb robbers and have some knowledge of spatial rules. Tens of thousands of years ago, I accidentally discovered a stable spatial rift. I slipped through it and found that ancient relic—a primordial continent brimming with divine energy, along with the remains of powerful beings and broken weapons and equipment. That spatial rift appears once every ten thousand years, lasting only for a year each time. If you agree to let me go, I’ll tell you where and when that realm appears.”
“You must be well aware of the consequences if what you say today turns out to be a lie, right?” Ye Feng stared coldly at the short man.
“It’s precisely because I know this secret is worth more than my life that I dare to use it as bargaining chips. I believe you’re not the kind of person who breaks his word, either, right?” the short man said boldly.
“Alright, I agree. As long as the time and location you give me are accurate, and that realm truly matches your description, I won’t kill you.” Ye Feng nodded. “But if I find out you’re lying, I’ll take your life back.”

“Actually, there are two complete remains and some fragments of weapons and equipment in this ring of mine. If you check it, you’ll see I’m telling the truth,” the short man pointed to the storage ring on Ye Feng’s left foot.
Ye Feng wasn’t afraid of any trickery from him. He picked up the ring and sent his mental energy inside, immediately finding what the short man had said.
“You’re indeed telling the truth. Tell me the time and place,” Ye Feng asked calmly.
“The location is inside the black area of the Eiland Archipelago, coordinates XXXX, XXXX, XXXX. It will open again in twelve years. Once you find the spatial rift, just enter it—no secret realm key is needed,” the short man revealed everything he knew. “Can I go now?”
Ye Feng stared at him for a while. “Remember, don’t reveal a single word about my domain, or else… you know…”
“Of course. If you need it, I can swear an oath. But personally, I don’t think it’s necessary,” the short man remained cautious, watching Ye Feng warily.
“No need. Go!” Ye Feng casually picked up the items on the ground. Without any further action from him, the originally golden-colored space disappeared.
More than a dozen corpses fell from the air, and at the same time, a figure quickly fled the scene.
The onlookers all exclaimed in amazement…
