Blinding light instantly engulfed everything, burying both the Blood Sea Domain and the Nether River Domain in an instant.

Rumble!

The cataclysmic explosion.

If one were to observe from hundreds of miles away, they would have been horrified to see a mushroom cloud tens of thousands of meters tall rising slowly into the sky.

The terrifying energy waves caused the vast land hundreds of miles away to tremble violently.

This was undoubtedly the most terrifying explosion Area 015 had witnessed since its opening, far surpassing the limits of the third breakthrough!

Even a true fourth-breakthrough powerhouse would have been instantly annihilated by such an explosion.

"Not good! Four Domains?"

"Has Jiang Ye encountered an invincible dao bone?"

"No, it seems to be just short of that." Bai Jing, Qiu Cang, and Qian Feng all stared intently at the image of Jiang Ye.

It wasn't that they weren't concerned about the others.

The truth was, after entering the Star Realm Sea, the other geniuses from Blue Star had either retreated into seclusion to break through or were cautiously moving in stealth.

But what about Jiang Ye?

He traversed tens of thousands of kilometers, sweeping aside all foreign races like a war god, rampaging through the Star Realm Sea with impunity.

Naturally, Bai Jing and the others paid even closer attention to Jiang Ye's progress.

"Four Innate Domains... even if they don't quite match the invincible dao bone, they're not far off."

"And his opponent is a quasi-fourth breakthrough powerhouse. This battle will likely be difficult for Jiang Ye."

"What?!"

"He's completely dominating?!"

"Jiang Ye...?" Qian Feng stared at the screen in utter astonishment.

It wasn't just him; even Bai Jing and Qiu Cang were equally surprised.

From start to finish, Jiang Ye had maintained absolute dominance over Ji Bei.

And Ji Bei was a top-tier genius on the verge of his fourth breakthrough!

How could Jiang Ye, fighting against someone of a higher cultivation level, display such overwhelming power?

"Jiang Ye has indeed reached the combat strength of an invincible dao bone," Qian Feng finally declared with certainty.

Previously, a sliver of doubt had lingered in his mind.

But now? That doubt had completely vanished.

Jiang Ye was now the second 'invincible dao bone' in Blue Star's history!

As Qian Feng marveled inwardly...

Suddenly,

Boom! A terrifying explosion erupted in the image.

"Hmm?"

"Not good! A fourth-tier treasure?!" Qian Feng's expression shifted dramatically.

Bai Jing's pupils constricted.

Fourth-tier? No, the intensity of this explosion likely exceeded even the peak fourth-breakthrough standard!

"Old Qiu!" Bai Jing exclaimed urgently. "You prepared a fourth-tier treasure for Jiang Ye, right?"

"I did," Qiu Cang replied, his face grim. "But that treasure can only withstand a mid-fourth-breakthrough impact at most."

Bai Jing's expression darkened.

Mid-fourth-breakthrough?

The current explosion had already reached peak fourth-breakthrough!

We're in trouble!

Boom!

The image continued to tremble violently.

At that moment, Bai Jing, Qiu Cang, and Qian Feng all tensed.

Even Qian Feng, despite his aloof demeanor, desperately hoped that a top-tier genius like Jiang Ye wouldn't perish in the Star Realm Sea.

After several agonizing seconds,

the tremors in the image finally subsided.

Bai Jing, Qian Feng, and Qiu Cang stared intently at the screen, their hearts pounding in anticipation.

In the next moment, the group's eyes widened in unison.

"Jiang Ye?"

"Completely unharmed?" Qiu Cang and the others stared at the screen in utter disbelief.

Whoosh~

Bai Jing let out a long sigh, the tension slowly draining from his face.

"Old Qiu, what's going on?" Bai Jing couldn't help but ask. "Didn't you say the treasure you gave him was only mid-fourth-tier? How could it withstand a peak fourth-breakthrough level attack?"

"This..."

Qiu Cang looked equally bewildered. "That's not the treasure I gave him."

As Jiang Ye's teacher, Qiu Cang had prepared a fourth-tier treasure for Jiang Ye before the Star Realm Sea opened, meant to protect his life. But that treasure could only withstand a mid-fourth-breakthrough level attack at most.

A treasure capable of withstanding a peak fourth-breakthrough attack? Qiu Cang didn't even possess such a thing himself. Fourth-tier treasures that could be activated by a third breakthrough cultivator were exceedingly rare.

Nearly all treasures came with strict limitations. For example, fourth-tier treasures typically required a fourth breakthrough powerhouse to activate them.

If anyone could freely activate them, wouldn't it be better to simply equip everyone with seventh-tier or even ninth-tier treasures? But in reality, such a possibility simply doesn't exist.

High-tier treasures that can be activated by low-tier strong were extremely rare; the entire Blue Star Civilization possessed only a handful.

"A peak fourth-tier treasure?"

"Could it be...?" Qiu Cang suddenly recalled something. "Could this kid have obtained it during his journey through the Cosmic Divine Path?"

"The Cosmic Divine Path?" Bai Jing finally realized.

"That explains it."

"I remember Chen Zilu also obtained a similar treasure during her time in the Cosmic Divine Path," Bai Jing remarked with a sigh. "Jiang Ye really is lucky."

Star Realm Sea, First Star Ring, Area 015.

Whoosh~

Jiang Ye landed slowly.

The ground beneath him revealed a massive crater, several thousand meters wide and dozens of meters deep.

Such destructive power rivaled the full-force strike of a peak fourth-breakthrough strong.

Yet Jiang Ye remained completely unharmed.

"Thank goodness."

"I obtained several treasures during my time on the Cosmic Divine Path," Jiang Ye murmured, gazing at the bell in his palm.

The bell was a radiant crimson gold, its surface faintly shimmering. Yet it was crisscrossed with cracks, clearly having lost its efficacy.

Just moments ago, this vajra bell had saved Jiang Ye's life.

Faced with the explosive power of a peak fourth-breakthrough cultivator, the vajra bell had transformed into an energy barrier, completely neutralizing the terrifying force.

By the time the explosion subsided, the vajra bell was utterly destroyed.

"Only four vajra bells remain," Jiang Ye sighed inwardly.

Such treasures were invariably single-use items.

Even for Jiang Ye, using them felt like a painful waste.

"I wonder if that foreign race member left any treasures behind," Jiang Ye's eyes flickered.

Whoosh!

With a swift step, Jiang Ye teleported to the center of the crater, where he found Ji Bei's remains.

The Fire Ember Civilization's top-tier Heavenly Pride had been reduced to scattered fragments in the cataclysmic blast.

"What a pity," Jiang Ye murmured, shaking his head.

Judging by the devastation, it seemed unlikely anything would have survived.

Suddenly, his expression shifted. A glint of light caught his eye from the corner of his vision.

"What's this?"

Jiang Ye immediately moved closer, sifting through the debris.

Soon, he unearthed a platinum-gold ring from the wreckage. The ring remained pristine, miraculously unscathed by the earlier explosion.

"Could it be?" Jiang Ye's heart quickened. He unleashed his Martial Dao Will Perception, enveloping the ring with its probing energy.

A moment later, a smile finally crept across his lips.

"That's more like it."

"Murder and plunder should always yield a substantial reward."
