Chapter 516: As Far as the Eye Can See, It Is a Wilderness
"Sister Zhiwei!"
Yao Qing immediately climbed up from the ground, stumbling to catch Su Zhiwei’s falling figure.
Blood trickled from Su Zhiwei’s nose. Like Yang Xiao, the first time using a "theory" and operating at an overload put immense pressure on their bodies, causing them to fall into a coma.
Yao Qing held Su Zhiwei, intending to leave, but suddenly remembering something, he leaned her against the corner of the wall for a moment.
He picked up the military dagger from the ground and walked slowly toward the assassin who had been knocked out first.
"The books say that those who don't finish the job don't have a good ending... If you wake up later, we’ll be the ones who die."
Yao Qing took a deep breath, gripped the handle of the dagger tightly with both hands, and after preparing himself mentally, he closed his eyes, gritted his teeth, and began to slash wildly at the assassin’s body!
After the first strike, the unconscious assassin twitched violently, as if about to wake up, but with the second strike hitting the carotid artery, blood sprayed out, and he quickly lost all signs of life, lying motionless.
Yao Qing, who was slashing with his eyes closed, didn't seem to realize this. He slashed more than a dozen times before stopping, breathing heavily...
Yao Qing looked at the bloody mess on the ground and felt a wave of nausea, but he controlled himself and, carrying the dagger, walked toward the two people Su Zhiwei had kicked away.
Not until he had slashed all the assassins here a dozen times each, confirming they were dead, did the dagger in Yao Qing’s hand clatter to the ground, and he began to retch violently.
The cold night rain slid down his hair, slightly easing his physical discomfort. His Adam’s apple bobbed, and he muttered hoarsely:
"I... I killed someone too."
Yao Qing took a deep breath, pushed the thoughts out of his mind, picked up Su Zhiwei, who was covered in blood, and walked out bit by bit...
Just then, the shaking of the earth became more violent!
The entire museum began to sway, the wooden floors creaking. Yao Qing froze for a moment, then quickened his pace, sprinting toward the nearest side door of the museum!
Thud—thud—thud—
A dull, massive sound came from underground, as if something was about to break through the earth. Embroidered pictures fell from the walls, and the sound of shattering glass rang out repeatedly.
Yao Qing stumbled through the corridor, bypassed overturned furniture, and rushed straight out the side door of the museum.
He stepped onto the ground outside the museum, breathing rapidly. As he held the unconscious Su Zhiwei and prepared to find a hiding place, his peripheral vision caught something, and he looked up at the sky.
Ink-black rain clouds drifted with the wind. In a gap between the clouds, a pair of giant wolf eyes, overlapping with the bright moon, were silently staring down at the earth.
"That is..."
Yao Qing’s mouth hung open involuntarily...
……
"Is that the Fourth-Order Domain of the [Heavenly Wolf]?"
A car sped along the road. Chen Ling looked through the car window at the giant wolf eyes in the clouds, his expression extremely grim.
Back in the Aurora Realm, Chen Ling had heard Han Meng say that the Fourth Order of the Divine Path was a qualitative change, and the key lay in the "Domain" obtained at the Fourth Order. If the first three orders were just combinations of fragmented skills, then from the Fourth Order on, all skills were extensions based on the Domain... And because everyone’s mental world was different, even on the same path, the Domains could differ.
Nie Yu, who had already stepped into the Fifth Order, naturally had full mastery of the [Heavenly Wolf] Domain. Even from several kilometers away, he could feel the oppressive pressure of those wolf eyes. The fact that he could see them meant he was now within Nie Yu’s Domain.
But Chen Ling’s confusion was that he had seen Han Meng’s complete version of the [Judgment Court] before... The coverage of the [Judgment Court] was only a few hundred meters, but the current [Heavenly Wolf] Domain covered at least several kilometers.
"Is the coverage of the [Heavenly Wolf] Domain this large?"
The image of Xiao Chunping flashed through Chen Ling’s mind. Even though he knew that museum was guarded by a powerful Green Divine Path practitioner, he was still worried under the gaze of those wolf eyes...
He pressed harder on the accelerator, the engine roaring like a beast as he sped toward the museum!

……
Exhibition Hall.
Amidst the flying embroidery threads, Nie Yu slowly opened his eyes.
At this moment, his left pupil had been replaced by a wolf eye, and a sharp, sinister aura was continuously spreading to the surroundings.
"So those assassins failed... What a bunch of trash." Nie Yu’s gaze shifted slightly, his vision seemingly overlapping with the wolf eyes on the moon, overlooking the entire Domain.
"The man in brown is also on his way back. It seems there isn't much time left."
Whoosh—!!
A hoe whistled through the air, hacking at Nie Yu’s neck from behind. But Nie Yu, as if he had a third eye, tilted his head slightly at that exact moment.
The sharp hoe grazed his ear, the gust of wind lifting his hair. Those wolf eyes were cold as frost.
A pitch-black man woven from embroidery threads snorted coldly behind him. More than a dozen figures rushed out from behind him, swarming to surround Nie Yu. Some were unarmed, others held weapons, like a vast army.
"I said... killing me won't be that easy!"
Cold light flashed in Nie Yu’s eyes. His entire body was covered in [Iron Clothes]. With a sway, he shot out like a cannonball, weaving through the numerous embroidered pictures. Under the gaze of those eyes with absolute perspective, his movements were agile and precise, like a ghost moving through a hail of bullets.
A long umbrella spun in the air. A young girl looked in the direction Nie Yu was flying, her brow furrowed, her mouth opening and closing silently:
"Careful! His target is the Fisherman!"
On a certain embroidered picture, the Fisherman wearing a bamboo hat snorted coldly. Fine fishing lines shot out from the river of embroidery threads, rushing toward the speeding Nie Yu!
Nie Yu, on the other hand, had no intention of dodging. Instead, the killing intent in his eyes grew more intense. He reached behind his back and pulled out a hunting rifle, a dark red surge rolling into the barrel.
Feeling the terrifying aura in the barrel, the Fisherman’s expression changed slightly. He stood up from his boat without hesitation, using the fishing line to restrain Nie Yu’s movements while moving upstream along the river, his figure nimbly weaving between different embroidered picture frames—impossible to track with the naked eye!
"In my Domain... no one can escape." Nie Yu’s eyes narrowed.
At this moment, all the architectural obstructions in front of him gradually faded into nothingness. The layered walls, the intricate museum, and even the countless embroidered characters flying about faded out of his vision. He was like a ghost, passing directly through all the walls, constantly chasing after the fishing boat!
As far as the eye can see, it is a wilderness!
The next moment, Nie Yu pulled the trigger!
Boom—!!
The dark red bullet erupted from the hunting rifle’s muzzle, as if it had eyes, precisely flying into the empty embroidered frame where the Fisherman appeared, and exploded right in front of his shocked eyes!
The thick walls and the embroidered frame vanished into nothingness, and the Fisherman’s figure shattered into countless fragments of embroidery thread, drifting away in the air...
Nie Yu raised his hand, gripped the hunting knife that had spun out, and landed steadily on the ground, his feet standing on the Fisherman’s shattered body.
Amidst the dense embroidery threads, Nie Yu held the knife in one hand and the gun in the other. A wolf eye seemed to pierce through the floor, locking onto Xiao Chunping in the embroidery room at the edge of the second floor.
"So... you were hiding there."
