Ahead, great worlds, one after another, were clearly situated in the chaos.
There were too many worlds, like stars adorning the void.
"Is this the Divine Firmament Domain?"
He was truly shocked.
The entire Divine Firmament Domain was like a galaxy, encircling the center.
At the very heart was an incomparably vast world, like a pillar supporting heaven and earth.
The center of the entire Divine Firmament Domain was that immense Divine Firmament World itself.
The Divine Firmament World, an eighth-tier great world.
Surrounding the Divine Firmament World were four slightly smaller seventh-tier great worlds.
"Seventh-tier great worlds."
Chen Fan understood, "Among these four worlds, there is one named Azure Firmament, a great world."
The worlds where seventh-tier Great Emperors resided were naturally seventh-tier great worlds.
Outside the seventh-tier great worlds were twelve sixth-tier great worlds.
And there were more…
Beyond that, there were fifth-tier worlds.
Only, there were no fourth-tier worlds.
After observing for a long time, Chen Fan finally withdrew from the mist's range.
"Sigh."
Returning to the Realm of Life and Death, he let out a sigh.
"City Lord..."
Seeing the City Lord's return, several top Emperor Venerables and the Hegemon quickly gathered around, "How was it?"
"Difficult."
Chen Fan shook his head, "The entire Divine Firmament Domain, apart from the eighth-tier great world at the center, has four seventh-tier great worlds, twelve sixth-tier great worlds, countless fifth-tier worlds..."
His words weighed heavily on everyone's hearts.
By now, everyone knew of the feud between the City Lord and the Azure Firmament Great Emperor.
One of the City Lord's lives had been personally taken by the Azure Firmament Great Emperor.
If the City Lord hadn't cultivated the Dao of Life and Death, he would have perished long ago.
The City Lord's revenge was the revenge of the entire Realm of Life and Death.
"..."
For a moment, everyone was at a loss.
"How about this..."
The Hegemon spoke, "We start by devouring from the outside, world by world, slowly advancing..."
The others nodded.
"It can be done,"
Chen Fan said, "But there's one condition: we can conquer a fifth-tier great world, but this world must be preserved, not devoured... Only by subtly devouring all worlds can we pose a threat to the worlds in the center."
Starting from the fifth tier was a good plan.
While devouring fifth-tier great worlds, they could also strengthen the Realm of Life and Death.
But if they were discovered, even a single sixth-tier great world would be a devastating blow to the Realm of Life and Death.
"Is there any way?"
If this issue wasn't resolved, they couldn't invade the Divine Firmament Domain.
Once their invasion was discovered, it would be catastrophic for the Realm of Life and Death.
None of them had any ideas.
"City Lord."
At this moment, Xi Qiu, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke, "If we could have a Dao that conceals us, or... assimilates, so that we can't be detected, that would be enough."
Everyone exchanged glances and nodded.
Indeed, if there was such a Dao, it would be feasible.
Moreover, such a Dao would have to be fifth-tier, otherwise, how could it conceal the Dao of a fifth-tier world?
Fourth-tier worlds simply didn't exist in the Divine Firmament Domain.
"If all else fails..."
Chen Fan gritted his teeth, "We'll directly attack a great world, then turn and run."
"..." Everyone.
This was a last resort.
Besides this method, there was no other option.
Ultimately, everyone could only nod.
"This is the only way." Everyone agreed.
Though it was a headache, there was no other solution.
"It's settled then."
Chen Fan's words held weight, and he continued, "So, next, we'll start by researching which fifth-tier great world to attack..."
"Let's take a look..."
No amount of discussion here would be useful.
Everyone exchanged glances. The Hegemon, Xi Qiu, Old Devil Chu, Mad Emperor... and others walked into the mist.
The Dao power of the Divine Firmament Domain swept over their bodies.
There were no unexpected issues; they easily walked in.
In the distance…
Boom, boom, boom.
From the great worlds deep within, powerful auras erupted from time to time.
Like fireworks, brilliant and dazzling.
"So vast..."
The group who had just entered, like Chen Fan initially, were all astonished.
Each person's face was etched with shock.
Truly shocked.
The Divine Firmament Domain was too immense.
Although not as vast as the Four Directions Domain, the end was beyond sight.
This was the fundamental reason Chen Fan had said... there were countless fifth-tier worlds.
From their perspective, they could see at most the sixth-tier worlds on the other side, and beyond that was obscured.
"Let's go."
Just looking was useless.
The group quickly moved deeper into the Divine Firmament Domain.
Since they had come, they couldn't leave empty-handed.
Soon, the group approached a fifth-tier great world.
"Buzz."
This great world was filled with an extremely violent aura.
"Destruction?"
The Mad Emperor was surprised, "What a coincidence, it's the same as my Dao."
He also cultivated the Dao of Destruction, and he hadn't expected the first great world he encountered in the Divine Firmament Domain to be one of Destruction.
"Interesting."
The group exchanged glances.
"Shall we choose this one?"
The decision still had to be made by the City Lord.
"Let's observe further," Chen Fan didn't act rashly.
After pondering, his divine sense, vast and boundless, spread out, encircling this fifth-tier great world.
This world was sealed; if they entered carelessly, they would certainly be discovered.
All they could do was sense from the periphery.
The fifth-tier world of Destruction, its destructive aura churning, a dragon of destruction coiled like a great serpent, slithering across the sky above the world.
After a while, Chen Fan spoke, "No, from the outside, we can't perceive the situation within. We don't know how many fifth-tier Heavenly Emperors are inside..."
One or two were manageable, but what if there were more?
And what if... a sixth-tier Heavenly Emperor was visiting here?
"I can try."
The Mad Emperor stepped forward, "Our Destructive Daos are of the same origin. Although there will be some differences in the process, I believe I can blend in."
Since it was all about Destruction, his advantage was evident.
"Alright," Chen Fan nodded.
This was their only option.
"Be careful."
Everyone could only agree, "If there's any danger, warn us immediately, and we'll attack."
Probing was acceptable, but no one could get hurt.
"Mm."
The Mad Emperor wasted no words. The aura of Destruction enveloped his body, and he directly merged into this fifth-tier great world.
Buzz.
A ripple of destructive Dao permeated, shrouding the Mad Emperor's body.
There was no rejection.
The Mad Emperor's body was like a drop of water entering the ocean, sinking into the world of Destruction.
"Let's wait."
Chen Fan's expression was solemn.
The next moment, a trace of concealing rule emanated from Chen Fan's body, enveloping the group.
Concealment.
Unless someone deliberately searched, they shouldn't be discovered.
...
The Great World of Destruction.
Deep within the world, a towering divine mountain stood at its center.
The instant the Mad Emperor merged into the Great World of Destruction, a figure on the divine mountain opened its eyes.
With a hint of confusion, it looked towards the world's barrier, "What was that fluctuation?"
Just now, it had sensed a slight ripple at the world's barrier.
"Someone infiltrated?"
Inside the grand hall, deep within the divine mountain, a fifth-tier Heavenly Emperor rose.
The next moment...
An incredibly violent aura of destruction spread out, sweeping across the entire world.
A moment later, the aura returned, finding nothing, "Did I misperceive?"
