Fighting: Xiao Yan at full level, leading the whole match

The so-called territorial disputes are not very meaningful to those at the Dao Integration Realm, because at their level, the resources in the universe that can help them improve their strength are extremely scarce.

They don't particularly care about the so-called face of ordinary beings. For the Dao Integration Realm experts who stand at the pinnacle of the universe, the only thing that has always troubled them is the last question: how to transcend.

Only through transcendence can one achieve eternity and become an immortal and indestructible true god.

However, since the beginning of time, the Dao Integration Realm has always been the ultimate goal of this universe. Even now, with the birth of Xiao Yan, the eighteenth person to reach the Dao Integration Realm, no one has yet touched the eternal realm beyond the Dao Integration Realm.

The reason for this perception is that after each Dao Integration Realm cultivator achieves Dao Integration, the unseen rules of fate and the rules governing the universe will cause them to naturally and unconsciously feel that there is an invisible barrier above the Dao Integration Realm.

Breaking through this barrier might allow them to stand at the peak and step into another realm.

However, among the many Dao Integration Realm giants, apart from Xiao Yan, the youngest Yuan Zun has lived for more than 50,000 years, and the oldest, such as the True God of Light and the Demon God of Destruction, have lifespans of millions or even tens of millions of years.

Even so, they still haven't reached the realm above the Dao Integration Realm.

Therefore, before their power reaches that supreme realm, the primary goal for all those at the Dao Integration Realm is to eliminate the powerful figures of the opposing camp.

Without the fierce competition for interests, what remains is a battle of ideologies and a struggle between factions.

Their goal is to achieve the unification of the universe and spread the order of righteousness throughout the entire cosmos.

Moreover, while territorial disputes may not grant them more resources, they can bring them something even more magical.

Good luck!

This fact was fully known to everyone on the day the Great Thousand Emperor, who specialized in cultivating the Great Dao of Destiny, merged with the Dao.

Having more territory means having more and larger fortune in a universe. With the convergence of fortune, not only can one have more talented and powerful people under one's command, but it also brings great benefits to these Dao Integration Realm giants.

Even more so, several years later, a new Dao Integration Realm will be born in the place where the great fortune gathers, thus affecting the pattern of the entire universe.

The Great Thousand World is a treasure land of fortune created by the Great Thousand Emperor after he coordinated the gods.

This place is where almost all the essence of the righteous path's fortune is gathered, and it is precisely because of this that, after the Great Thousand Emperors, peerless figures like Xiao Yan and Lin Dong were born.

The more Dao Integration Realm cultivators there are, the greater the advantage one's side will have, and the greater the hope of defeating or even completely annihilating the Demonic Path faction in the future.

This is the main reason why the two camps are vying for territory.

It should be understood that in ancient times, neither righteous nor demonic deities paid much attention to mortal beings or the boundaries of the universe.

The only difference is that the righteous innate gods do not slaughter indiscriminately, while the demonic innate gods directly feed on living beings, wantonly devouring one world after another.

As the number of Dao Integration Realm experts increased, the concepts of the two sides' deities became increasingly incompatible. Only after both sides realized the importance of destiny did a real territorial dispute arise.

However, the fundamental issue in the territorial disputes lies in the number of people at the Dao Integration Realm.

Each cultivator at the Dao Integration Realm can easily rule over hundreds of great worlds and billions of lower planes as their territory.

Therefore, as Xiao Yan broke through to the Dao Integration Realm, the other ten Dao Integration Realm experts were already sharpening their knives.

They now occupy more than half of the universe's territory, and with Xiao Yan's breakthrough, they will be able to seize a large amount of territory from the demonic forces once again.

"Xiao Yan, what do you say?"

"Yes, which territory have you set your sights on? As long as you can hold it, we'll take it immediately!"

A group of Dao Integration Realm experts were all eager to fight. How much territory a Dao Integration Realm expert could occupy depended not only on the strength of their own faction, but also on the strength of the Dao Integration Realm expert himself.

Although it is difficult for those at the Dao Integration Realm to kill each other, there is still a difference in strength.

For example, ancient Dao Integration Realm cultivators like the Destruction Demon God, the Lord of the Abyss Realm, and the True God of Light, who have lived for millions of years, often possess more powerful methods and secret techniques for creation than newly born Dao Integration Realm cultivators because they have lived for so long. Moreover, their divine bodies have been explored to the extreme, and their basic power is also stronger.

Although it is difficult to kill a newly promoted Dao Integration Realm cultivator, defeating them is quite easy.

For example, the Great Demon God Asura and Emperor Xuanyuan are roughly equal in strength, but they specialize in different Daos. Even if they cannot defeat each other, their advantages are completely different.

Emperor Xuanyuan's Dao of Water is more troublesome, and his means of survival and support are more powerful. However, in terms of direct attack, he is suppressed by the Great Demon God of Asura and can only engage in entanglement without gaining the upper hand.

Therefore, the extent of territory Xiao Yan was able to occupy was not only due to the support of ten Dao Integration Realm experts, but also related to his own strength.

If he possessed the power of a demon god of destruction, he could naturally occupy a larger territory.

"How much territory does it occupy?"

Xiao Yan grinned upon hearing this.

"The more the better!"

Upon hearing this, the ten Dao Integration Realm cultivators were slightly taken aback, and then they glanced at Xiao Yan thoughtfully, a smile appearing on their lips.

"If that's the case, then we'll be waiting for you to start a war!"

"Good. Once you're ready, let us know and we'll start the battle immediately!"

Although the ten Dao Integration Realm experts didn't know where Xiao Yan's confidence came from, they didn't have too many doubts. As fellow Dao Integration Realm experts, they believed that a strong person like Xiao Yan, who could reach the Dao Integration Realm in a short time, wouldn't be a fool.

"How about this, we will each give Xiao Yan 1 billion source crystals so that he can complete the accumulation of divine power as soon as possible."

The Great Thousand Emperor further proposed this.

"OK, no problem."

The other Dao Integration Realm experts exchanged knowing smiles.

One billion source crystals is an astronomical figure for ordinary gods. If you don't count the great worlds under your command, the wealth of an ordinary peak creator god is roughly this much.

However, for those at the Dao Integration Realm, a billion Origin Crystals is nothing. They possess a complete Great Dao with boundless power. If they dedicate themselves to refining it, they can condense so many Origin Crystals in just a few years.

It should be noted that each Great World under the command of a Dao Integration Realm cultivator is a top-tier Great World, with a diameter of nearly 100 billion miles and a source energy concentration far exceeding that of ordinary Great Worlds.

The value of just one of their great worlds alone exceeds tens of billions or even nearly a hundred billion source crystals.

For those at their level, source crystals are nothing more than a number, because what they need is beyond what source crystals can buy.

"In that case, thank you all very much."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan could only cup his hands and smile at everyone. In his previous life, he was a peak Dao Integration Realm cultivator, so he naturally didn't care about the number of Origin Crystals.

One Dao Integration Realm cultivator gifted ten billion Origin Crystals, and ten of them together would amount to a staggering ten billion Origin Crystals. Such a vast fortune would make any Creator God tremble, but for the Dao Integration Realm cultivators, it was merely a small sum. What they cared about most was Xiao Yan reaching his true peak as soon as possible.

It should be understood that although there are differences in strength among those at the Dao Integration Realm, they are all beings who have fully mastered a Dao and have the same understanding of the Great Dao.

There are only two kinds of differences in their strength.

One possibility is that the longer one lives, the more powerful the secret techniques one might create.

Secondly, there is the difference in divine power. Although the understanding of the Great Dao is similar between those who have just entered the Dao Integration Realm and those who are at the peak of the Dao Integration Realm, the accumulation of divine power is several times greater.

Therefore, many Dao Integration Realm cultivators are not in a hurry to fight against the veteran Dao Integration Realm cultivators in the short period after entering the Dao Integration Realm, because at this stage, not only are their secret techniques weaker, but the gap in divine power is also huge, and they are really likely to be killed by the strongest Dao Integration Realm cultivators.

However, accumulating divine power in the early stages is very simple. As long as you have enough time, reaching the peak of the Dao Integration Realm is a natural outcome.

A large number of source crystals can greatly shorten this time.

Once you reach the peak of the Dao Integration Realm, even if you are no match for those veteran Dao Integration Realm cultivators, the difference in strength between the two sides is limited, and you should still have no major problem surviving.

With the help of these 10 billion Source Crystals, Xiao Yan was not only able to quickly accumulate resources, but also to expand the Flame God Realm significantly, thereby greatly enhancing his strength.

Soon, the ten Dao Integration Realm cultivators bid farewell to Xiao Yan. In the following month, each of the ten Dao Integration Realm cultivators dispatched a Creator God to the Flame God Realm to deliver one billion Origin Crystals.

At this moment, Xiao Yan had already begun refining the ten billion source crystals sent by Yuan Zun.

Time flies, and another thirty years have passed in the blink of an eye. With the infusion of a large amount of source crystals, the area of ​​the Flame God Realm has expanded once again, reaching a diameter of 70 billion miles.

During this time, the Green-Robed Sword Saint finally took the last step and entered the level of a World God.

With Xiao Yan's help, Lin Dong and Xiao Chen quickly cultivated to the peak of the World God realm. Only at this point did they truly encounter a bottleneck.

The gap between the pinnacle of world gods and the creator gods is a huge chasm, and also a huge dividing line between peerless geniuses and great creators.

Many cultivators are extraordinary, possessing great fortune, rising from weakness to the level of gods, and then using various means to ascend to the level of world gods.

In one great world, they might be considered the chosen ones, but looking at the entire universe, how many world gods are not like this?

However, among ten world gods, perhaps only one can reach the Creation Realm.

Xiao Yan clearly remembered that in his previous life, it took him and his group thousands of years to go from the World Realm to the Creation Realm. Even so, they were still called Great Creators.

Therefore, Lin Dong and Xiao Chen have truly hit a bottleneck this time. Their previous cultivation had been smooth sailing, and it only took them a hundred years to go from being weak to becoming gods.

However, this bottleneck will trouble them for a thousand years, but Xiao Yan doesn't care. He believes that this difficulty will not be long for the two of them.

In addition, Xiao Xuan successfully broke through to the God Realm and became a newly promoted ruler.

But Xiao Yan knew in his heart that whether it was Xiao Xuan, the Green-Robed Sword Saint, or other powerful figures in the Great Thousand World, the ultimate goal for many of them was roughly the peak of the World God realm.

From Immortal to Saint, from Saint to God, from World God to Creator God—these are three enormous chasms, each of which will stop countless people.

Xiao Yan was helpless in the face of this.

The path of cultivation is inherently defying the heavens; if everyone could become a god, then gods wouldn't be so valuable.

He could only silently stand up and do what he had to do.

In that instant, a message was sent to the hands of the ten Dao Integration Realm giants.

"I have completed the accumulation of divine power, let the battle begin!"

Almost the instant those words were uttered, the entire universe seemed to tremble.

As soon as Xiao Yan spoke, ten cultivators at the Dao Integration Realm simultaneously set out.

They had been waiting for this day for thirty years.

"Boom!"

Xuan Yuan Realm, Da Qian Realm, Guang Ming Realm
At the core of each realm, within that vast world, an incomparably powerful aura soared into the sky. This aura was so strong that it instantly caused the Great Dao to roar, making the power of this Great Dao throughout the entire universe tremble.

The ten Dao Integration Realm giants attacked simultaneously without warning the moment Xiao Yan's voice rang out.

Xiao Yan also took a step forward, and in a flash, he traversed a vast distance spanning a galaxy.

In a short while, they arrived in the territory of the demonic path.

At this moment, ten enormous auras appeared simultaneously in the Demonic Realm, each aura possessing such vast power that it caused the entire starry sky to tremble.

With Xiao Yan included, there were a total of eleven Dao Integration Realm auras descending.

Behind these eleven auras, the vast and mighty power of eleven Great Daos roared.

Seemingly sensing the roar of these eleven Great Daos, the territory of the Demonic Path also saw a surge of Dao-merging aura rising into the sky. At the same time, the relatively negative aura of another Great Dao was also trembling in the universe.

Destruction, darkness, bones, slaughter, chaos, devouring, desire
The figures of the seven great demon gods also appeared in the void, each staring at the eleven Dao Integration Realm cultivators in front of them with hostile expressions.

In fact, even including the demonic path, the eighteen Dao Integration Realm cultivators were still very far apart, but to them, they were very close.

At their level, they are equivalent to the embodiment of a great Dao in the universe. Even if they are separated by an infinite distance, they can determine each other's information through the radiation of the Great Dao, and can even communicate with the aura of the Great Dao.

At this moment, a group of Dao Integration Realm cultivators from the righteous faction stared intently at the seven demon gods.

"Xiao Yan, have you decided which one you'll deal with?"

The voices of the Dao Integration Realm cultivators rang out, and Xiao Yan nodded slightly as he stood still.

"Of course I've already thought it through!"

Xiao Yan grinned and said, "Great Demon God of Bones, before I merged with the Dao, you twice secretly persecuted me. Today, I will use your bones as a sacrifice to the heavens."

"Emperor Xuanyuan, please join me in battle! It's time to avenge Emperor Guzang!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Yan took a step forward and appeared in the territory of the Skeleton Demon God.

The next moment, Emperor Xuanyuan also appeared among them, staring at the Skeleton Demon God with an unfriendly expression.

This guy is one of the two main culprits who killed Emperor Guzang. (End of Chapter)
