Chapter 164: Two Extremes Stillness Domain!
"If this crack leading to Douluo Star exists for a long time and is accidentally discovered by powerhouses from other planes... they might not be restricted by Divine Rank strength and could enter Douluo Star!"
"At that time, the forces of different planes converging on Douluo Star will inevitably trigger unpredictable chaos and war!"
"It might even... draw the flames of war to the God Realm!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of the five God Kings became extremely unsightly.
This was by no means alarmist talk!
A rich plane that had lost the God Realm's supervision and had a "back door" open.
For the powerhouses of other planes, it was no different from a piece of fat meat emitting a tempting aroma!
"The current plan..."
The Life God King pondered for a moment and suggested.
"Since it cannot be closed, we will join forces to set up the strongest concealment and protection Divine Array to cover this crack as much as possible, delaying the time it takes for other planes to discover it."
"At the same time, we must immediately dispatch a sufficiently powerful and reliable Divine Rank existence to keep a constant watch on this spatial crack to prevent powerhouses from other planes from discovering it."
"It can only be so."
Asura God King took a deep breath, suppressing the irritability in his heart.
"Set up the Divine Array immediately! After returning to the God Realm, select a candidate at once!"
"This matter concerns the safety of the God Realm and allows for no mistakes!"
The five God Kings no longer hesitated, each manifesting their divine force as profound and complex divine runes intertwined and enveloped the area around the crack.
Forming layers of powerful concealment and protection Barriers.
Temporarily disguising and protecting that unstable crack.
After doing all this, the six figures, with heavy hearts, instantly disappeared into the Universe's Void Realm, returning to the God Realm to discuss follow-up countermeasures... Within the Douluo Continent, everyone was completely unaware of this shocking change occurring outside the continent.
Everyone's attention was still firmly attracted by the heavenly curtain, where the top four of the Spirit Fusion Technique Ranking were about to be revealed.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Above the heavenly curtain.
The milky-white light symbolizing the fourth place, which was about to be revealed, after brewing to the extreme...
It did not manifest a magnificent or strange scene like before.
Instead, it suddenly shrank inward!
Then, with an almost brutal posture, it spread outward into an invisible yet seemingly substantial Domain!
This Domain phantom was colorless and odorless!
There wasn't even any energy fluctuation leaking out.
"This aura..."
But the moment it appeared, the consciousness of all spectators seemed to be gripped by a cold, giant hand!
Thinking stagnated, Soul Power solidified!
Even the sense of the passage of time became blurred!
It was an absolute force of stillness and banishment that made one tremble from the depths of their Soul!
Most ordinary Soul Masters only felt an inexplicable palpitation and discomfort, lost in confusion.
But for those powerhouses standing at the continent's Peak, this aura was all too familiar!
...Within the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
"This is... that Domain!"
Sword Douluo Chen Xin stood up abruptly, his surrounding Sword Qi bursting forth uncontrollably and shattering the tea table beside him.
His expression was extremely solemn.
"Two Extremes Stillness Domain!"
"It's the Fusion skill of those two old fellows from Spirit Hall, Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo!"
Bone Douluo Gu Rong was also full of shock: "It's actually them? How is this possible?"
"With their Rank 96 cultivation, the power of this 'Two Extremes Stillness Domain' is enough to threaten existences like us, plus its special nature..."
"It's actually only ranked fourth? It didn't even make it into the top three?"
Ning Fengzhi's hand gripping the armrest of his chair tightened slightly as he said in a deep voice, "It seems we all underestimated the judging standards of this heavenly curtain before, and also underestimated the hidden miraculous skills in this world."
"Even the Two Extremes Stillness Domain can only settle for fourth place. Just what kind of inconceivable existences are the top three?"
...Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.
Yu Yuanzhen also widened his eyes in disbelief: "The Spirit Fusion Technique of Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo is only ranked fourth?"
"Could the top three all be Divine Skills?"
He couldn't imagine what kind of Spirit Fusion Technique could surpass this control Divine Skill, which even a Limit Douluo would be somewhat wary of, in terms of strategic value and immediate threat.
[Spirit Fusion Technique Ranking, Fourth Place]
[Fusion Skill Name: Two Extremes Stillness Domain]
[Owners: Yue Guan (Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum), Gui Mei (Gui Mei)]
[Current Users' Soul Power Rank: Yue Guan (Rank 96 Titled Douluo), Gui Mei (Rank 96 Titled Douluo)]
[Spirit Compatibility: 84%]
[Fusion Skill Power Description: An extremely rare Domain-type Spirit Fusion Technique. Combining the 'Qirong' stabilizing power of the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum with the 'Void' imprisonment characteristic of the Gui Mei Martial Soul, it forms an absolute stillness Domain. Within the Domain, time and space are nearly solidified, energy stagnates, and the thoughts and movements of living beings are greatly restricted or even completely frozen. It has an extremely strong control effect on existences below Divine Rank, and its strategic value is immeasurable.]
[Ranking Reward: Both parties' Soul Power Ranks increase by one level each. When the Two Extremes Stillness Domain takes effect on targets below Divine Rank, the base control duration is permanently increased by one second. Extra reward: Domain stability and interference resistance slightly improved. (Rewards have been distributed)]
Fourth Place, Two Extremes Stillness Domain!
Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo from Spirit Hall!
The announcement of the rewards once again sparked heated discussion.
"Soul Power increases by one level each? They're Titled Douluos! This reward is too generous!"
"Control duration permanently increased by one second? My god! For this kind of Domain, one more second could be the difference between life and death!"
"However, it seems there are no mystery boxes, and no Soul Ring age increases or anything..."
"What do you know! How difficult is it for a Titled Douluo to increase by one Rank? The value of this one Rank is probably higher than a ten-thousand-year Soul Bone!"
"Not to mention that extra second of control; it's practically a Divine Skill among Divine Skills!"
...Spirit Hall, Supreme Pontiff Palace.
When they saw that their Spirit Fusion Technique indeed failed to enter the top three.
In the eyes of Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan and Ghost Douluo Gui Mei, a trace of disappointment inevitably flashed.
But the reward information that followed immediately washed that trace of disappointment away!
"Rank 97! We've broken through to Rank 97!"
Chrysanthemum Douluo felt the surging Soul Power within his body, far more refined and vast than at Rank 96, and his voice trembled with excitement.
At their level, every Rank Breakthrough means a qualitative leap in strength.
The extension of lifespan and the further stabilization of their status!
Gui Mei's body, shrouded in black robes, also trembled slightly, his raspy voice carrying uncontrollable wild joy.
"Not just Soul Power, the Domain control increased by one second."
"This means that even when facing a Rank 98 or even Rank 99 Limit Douluo, as long as the timing is right, our Domain can have a decisive impact!"
Bibi Dong sat high upon her throne, looking at the two Elders below who were beyond excited; the corners of her cold lips curled into a satisfied arc.
Although failing to enter the top three was somewhat unexpected, the practicality of this reward...
Especially the direct increase in the two Elders' strength was far more important to her than a hollow title.
The stronger Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo were, the more stable Spirit Hall's high-end combat power would be.
"It seems the rewards from the heavenly curtain are not completely uniform."
Bibi Dong thought to herself.
"Perhaps they are distributed based on the characteristics of the Spirit Fusion Technique, the needs of the users, and even the impact on the 'balance' of the continent?"
"The Two Extremes Stillness Domain is already extremely strong. Significantly increasing its power might destroy some kind of 'balance', so only a basic but crucial enhancement was given."
Her gaze involuntarily turned toward Big Dipper Academy again, her purple eyes flashing with sharp light.
"For a Spirit Fusion Technique as powerful as the one Yue Guan and Gui Mei possess to only Rank fourth!"
"Then, as for those who can occupy the top three seats, besides Big Dipper Academy, this seat truly cannot think of any other sacred existence."
"Lu Xiao... just how many monsters are still hidden in your academy?"
At this moment, almost all the top forces of the entire Douluo Continent focused their gaze on Big Dipper Academy.
Everyone realized... that the final Peak of the Spirit Fusion Technique Ranking would likely be completely swept by this mysterious and powerful Big Dipper Academy!
