Chapter 3174: The Dominion’s Brush
Beyond the boundary of the Saints’ World was the chaotic space.
The chaotic space was extremely dangerous. Without the strength of a Grand Exalt or a sovereign god artifact for protection, even Ninth Heavenly Layer Grand Primes could not set foot there.
The chaotic space was filled with a faint mist that bore the presence of chaos, so even Grand Exalts could not use the senses of their souls once they entered the chaotic space. The mist would even affect the distance they could see with their naked eye.
In a certain place within the chaotic space, a brush hovered silently. It possessed simple patterns like they were the ways woven together.
There was one large simple word on the shaft—Dominion!
Suddenly, as if the Dominion’s Brush that hovered silently in the chaotic space had been summoned, a mysterious power immediately surged forth. Then it turned into a streak of light and passed through the mist, vanishing instantly. It moved unbelievably quickly.
At the same time, directly in the path of the Dominion’s Brush, a figure completely clad in black robes, wielding a sovereign god artifact, searched through the chaotic space closely.
Light radiated from the sovereign god artifact, forming a powerful defensive barrier around the black-robed person. It allowed him to move through the chaotic space freely even when his strength had not reached Grand Exalt.
He was the leader of the Myriad Bone Guild!
“Where exactly has the brush ended up? But regardless, I need to find it. Hmph, I’ll find it someday with how closely I’m searching this place,” the leader of the Myriad Bone Guild vowed inside. In the beginning, he was not particularly determined to find the brush. He only wanted to give it a try.
However, ever since his plan against Jian Chen failed, the leader of the Myriad Bone Guild realised that his only chance for survival was to find the brush.
Only when he found the brush would he possess the confidence to contend against the Wind Venerable!
“Hmm?” Suddenly, the leader of the Myriad Bone Guild seemed to sense something. He came to a sudden halt and subconsciously looked backwards.
From there, he could sense a pulse that was different from normal.
However, he was unable to use the senses of his soul in the chaotic space. His vision was hindered too, so it was completely impossible for him to check that place without getting close first.
The chaotic mist that the leader of the Myriad Bone Guild was looking at began to surge. A resplendent light shot through the space there with unmatched speed, together with a long, bright tail. It rushed past the leader of the Myriad Bone Guild with a swish. It vanished again instantly, swallowed by the thick mist.
As if he had flown into a frenzy, the leader of the Myriad Bone Guild immediately became extraordinarily excited, even overexcited. Even as a Ninth Heavenly Layer Grand Prime, he began to tremble uncontrollably.
“It’s the brush. It’s the brush. Hahahaha, I’ve found it, I’ve found it. I’ve finally found the brush…” The leader of the Myriad Bone Guild was extremely excited as he laughed aloud. Without any hesitation, he immediately turned into a blur and chased after the brush as quickly as he could.
“Hahahaha, hard work always pays off. After all these years, I’ve finally found your trace! Dear brush, oh brush, I’ve really searched long and hard for you. Hahahaha…” The leader of the Myriad Bone Guild laughed ecstatically. His current state made him seem like he had lost his mind. A mighty Ninth Heavenly Layer Grand Prime was actually laughing away like a fool right now.
He was not at fault for this either, as he had spent a total of ten thousand years searching for this brush already. During these ten thousand years, he had only left the chaotic space once. He spent all other times searching through the chaotic space.
It was impossible to absorb any origin energy in the chaotic space, so he could only rely on ingesting God Tier pills and heavenly resources to recover once his energy ran out.
After all, powering a sovereign god artifact took an extremely great amount of energy. Even as a Ninth Heavenly Layer Grand Prime, it would take a heavy toll after long periods of time.
As a result, the leader of the Myriad Bone Guild spent almost every second of the ten thousand years powering the sovereign god artifact. He had already lost count over the amount of God Tier pills and heavenly resources he had depleted.
In order to find this brush, the amount of resources he had invested over the years was beyond imagination.
Now that ten thousand years of investment and effort was finally paying off, the leader of the Myriad Bone Guild was obviously delighted.
However, the brush moved far too quickly. The leader of the Myriad Bone Guild completely lost track of it very soon.
However, he was not dejected at all. Instead, he was in high spirits. His eyes shone brightly. “At least I’ve confirmed the brush is in the chaotic space. Since it’s appeared once, then it’ll definitely appear a second time.”
“I’ve already memorised the disturbance you produce when you appear. When you appear a second time, you’ll never slip through my hands again.”
“Hahaha, brush, oh brush, when you were wielded by that person from the Immortals’ World, you could contend against me and three other Saint Monarchs. You even managed to heavily injure the Lightning Saint Monarch. If I wield you, why would I still fear the Wind Venerable?”
“On top of that, only the four of us in the entire Saints’ World know about this brush. The Lightning Saint Monarch, the East Origination Saint Monarch, and the Dao Heaven Saint Monarch have yet to set foot in the chaotic space. I am the only one searching for you in the chaotic space.”
“As a result, you are fated to end up in my hands…”
The leader of the Myriad Bone Guild who was absolutely excited immediately cast a secret technique and connected with the soul clone he had left in the Saints’ World.
In the Saints’ World, inside the headquarters of the Myriad Bone Guild within an unknown region of space.
“Heartless, quick, enter the chaotic space immediately and search for the brush with me.” Suddenly, an urgent and excited voice rang out in the Heartless Child’s head.
The Heartless Child sitting in outer space opened his eyes. He was surprised. “Brother, what’s happened to you? Has something happened in the chaotic space?”
“The brush has appeared. The brush has appeared! Hahaha, it’s still in the chaotic space. Come to the chaotic space immediately and search with me. This time, we’ll never stop until we find the brush.”
The Heartless Child became slightly troubled. Powering a sovereign god artifact for long periods of time with his cultivation was a little difficult, but he soon made up his mind and said with resolve, “Alright, I’ll head over right now.”
“It’ll take an extremely great toll on you to power a sovereign god artifact with your cultivation, so remember to bring some additional pills that can help you recover.”
......
…
In a hidden region within the Burial Zone of the ruined Spirits’ World, Fang Jing maintained her hand seal. Her presence surged as her energy diminished at an extremely terrifying rate.
Clearly, maintaining the current summoning technique required an extremely great cultivation.
However, during the years she spent lurking away in hiding, she had already made a complete recovery through the cultivation method she practised, the Heavenly Heart Method of Profundity. The power of her cultivation was currently in an endless state, so depleting it like that was nothing to her.
Suddenly, Fang Jing changed her hand seals. She changed them again and again before pointing at the space before her.
With that, the space cracked open. Within the endless glow, a brush seemed to pass through the boundary of the world, landing in Fang Jing’s hand.
The brush was already the same length as a grown man’s arm. It seemed like a short stick and flowed with a seven-coloured haze. The simple word “Dominion” stood out particularly.
The moment she gripped the brush, Fang Jing’s presence faded away. At this very moment, she seemed like she had leapt out of the world and was no longer bound by its elements. All of her traces had completely vanished from the world or even the entire universe. She was completely traceless.
