Chapter 1952: Just Some Extra Measures
Now even Mo Mo and Ai Jiang couldn't stay calm. Nuoman actually managed to manifest his domain?
If they weren't careful, this could turn into a total disaster!
Everyone's hearts were in their throats, especially Olivia and Wen Ge!
This was a matter of life and death!
Could Jiang Nan still handle this?
A dazzling azure light exploded outward with Nuoman at its center.
Ten thousand meters, a hundred thousand meters—still expanding!
Within the Deep Space Absolute Zero Domain, the temperature had already dropped below absolute zero.
The particles that made up all things had not only completely stopped moving, they were already annihilating.
The memory alloy arena beneath their feet vanished into nothingness in large swaths. Even time seemed to freeze.
The air froze into ice crystals, falling in flurries. Even the light particles within the domain began to extinguish.
It was like a dead, silent deep space devoid of any sign of life.
The domain spread madly toward Jiang Nan.
In the blink of an eye, that upper-clan Bose named Kunta had been beaten by Jiang Nan until he was as transparent as a ghost.
Absolute Spirit Flash struck Kunta at warp speed. One punch, and jelly splattered everywhere.
Jiang Nan's Diamond Star Fist had utterly wrecked him.
He was on the verge of dissipating.
But the Deep Space Absolute Zero Domain pressed down upon them.
Jiang Nan sent Kunta flying with a warp-speed roundhouse kick, then teleported away to dodge.
Even before the domain enveloped him, Jiang Nan felt as though his soul were about to freeze.
(⚆益⚆ꐦ) "Tsk... you actually pulled it off?"
Nuoman certainly wouldn't give Jiang Nan a chance to escape. His eyes were full of ferocity.
(ꐦ°᷄益°᷅) "Originally, you might have had a chance to beat me, but now you don't. Against a domain-level powerhouse, you're nothing but a lamb to the slaughter. Where's that arrogance now? The battlefield is only so big—where can you run to?"
Nuoman and his seven subordinates vanished instantly, reappearing right in front of Jiang Nan.
They immediately enveloped Jiang Nan within the domain.
"I can sense your spatial fluctuations. You can't escape. Perish in my Deep Space Absolute Zero!"
Jiang Nan curled his lip. (￢益￢ꐦ) "Tch... it's just a lousy domain. You're way too proud of it."
Compared to Zack and Karl's, Nuoman's domain was rather childish.
After all, Karl's domain had three stages.
But it was still a domain. Even with Jiang Nan's freakish physical constitution, he couldn't withstand it.
"Warp Speed Cannon!"
A warp bubble instantly formed, aimed at Nuoman and fired.
But Jiang Nan teleported mid-way to jump off, then released another warp bubble, charging out of the coverage of Nuoman's domain.
Seeing the warp bubble coming, Nuoman was on high alert.
It could actually be launched like that?
"Dimensional Gate: Six Paths!"
In an instant, dimensional gates encircled Nuoman.
The moment the warp bubble hit the dimensional gate, it was disintegrated into nothing.
But the next moment, Jiang Nan, outside the domain, went berserk.
He fired warp bubbles like crazy.
─=≡Σ(((つ•̀口•́)つ "Give me O Pop! Give me O Pop! O Pop milk! Pop pop pop!"
Eight consecutive shots in an instant, but this time Jiang Nan aimed at everyone.
Mo Mo was stunned. How could you shout out such an embarrassing nursery rhyme?
Boss Nan wasn't scared at all—he was even singing?
Nuoman: !!!
He's fighting at long range?
Damn it!
"Six Paths: Scatter!"
In an instant, the six dimensional gates surrounding him dispersed, protecting himself and five of his subordinates.
Then Nuoman charged madly into the void, suddenly appearing in front of one of his men.
He swung the Holy Execution Blade in a blazingly fast strike.
"Warp Speed Slash!"
With a *shing*, the warp bubble was split open.
Nuoman's eyes were bloodshot. One more! He could make it!
He flashed again, appearing before another subordinate, raising his blade for another slash.
With a *shing*, the warp bubble was cleaved in two on the spot. But then Nuoman was stunned.
Because what was split wasn't just the warp bubble.
It was also the Kunta wrapped inside.
Nuoman's blade had cut Kunta in half. He was already so weak he was about to dissipate.
(´థ口//థ) "Young master... it's me..."
Nuoman: !!!
Damn! It was stuffed?
Jiang Nan had swapped Kunta into this warp bubble. While beating him earlier, he had already left a spatial mark on his horn.
Jiang Nan covered his mouth and snickered.
(◕ಡლಡ) "Pfft pfft pfft—you cut him yourself, not me!"
[From Nuoman: Resentment Value +1008!]
Just as he was about to speak, three screams rang out.
In front of three dimensional gates, space wormholes opened.
The warp bubbles weren't disintegrated by the dimensional gates; instead, they changed direction through the wormholes, passed through the gates, and directly hit three subordinates.
They were instantly turned into jelly fragments.
The curse array became unstable.
Nuoman's eyes turned red. This bastard!
He was clearly playing with me!
"All of you, attack!"
He then controlled the domain to press toward Jiang Nan again.
But Jiang Nan didn't charge in. He ran around the arena at warp speed, occasionally releasing a Palm Realm.
He compressed a hundred thousand meters of space into a small ball and stuffed it into his pocket.
Thanks to the Star Source Charging Ring, whenever he used up his spiritual energy for skills, he could quickly refill it through the ring.
Soon, he had gnawed the arena full of hundred-thousand-meter holes.
The Fairy Sound Clan arbiter cursed under his breath.
The venue was completely wrecked like this—was Jiang Nan here for a duel or to demolish the place?
At that moment, the spectators watched Jiang Nan being completely chased by Nuoman and smacked their lips.
"Is Jiang Nan done? Fight! Why is he running?"
"What more do you expect? A carbon-based against so many Bose—it's already impressive. Having a domain or not is like heaven and earth! A world of difference!"
Yue Li's heart had been hanging the whole time, never letting down.
Nuoman was furious.
(ꐦ°᷄益°᷅) "Why do you keep running? You brought this on yourself. No matter how hard you struggle, the result will be the same. Come at me face-to-face if you dare!"
Jiang Nan squinted and grinned.
(◕¯ิ৺¯ิ) "As you wish!"
With that, he suddenly turned back, reversed direction.
A warp bubble instantly formed, charging straight into Nuoman's domain.
Since the warp bubble provided some insulation, and Jiang Nan's own Blood Incineration was maxed out to maintain body temperature, although he was still eroded by the extreme cold and his warp speed slowed, it was enough for him to hold out for a while.
And this extremely short window was sufficient for Jiang Nan.
In a flash, Jiang Nan appeared before a Bose.
He reached into his pocket, pulled out a Palm Realm ball, and thrust it toward him.
Nuoman immediately reacted, quickly placing a dimensional gate between Jiang Nan and his subordinate, then charged over, raising his blade for a warp speed slash.
But just then, Jiang Nan's sinister laugh rang out: "Realm Bloom! There you go!"
"Boom!"
With a thunderous blast, the compressed Palm Realm instantly bloomed. Nuoman, the dimensional gate, and that subordinate were all pushed away by the expanding hundred thousand meters of space.
The subordinate was directly squeezed out of the curse array position.
The blooming hundred thousand meters of space also punched a huge void in Nuoman's Deep Space Absolute Zero Domain.
Inside this circular space, Nuoman's domain didn't cover it.
If you imagine Nuoman's domain as a fish tank full of water, then the blooming Palm Realm was like a large air bubble in that tank.
Inside the bubble, there was no water—it was clean, unaffected by the domain.
And it would take some time for Nuoman's domain to envelop this hundred thousand meters.
That brief time was enough for Jiang Nan to operate.
"Time-Space Corridor: Warp Speed Infinite Chain Kill!"
Six pairs of space wormholes instantly opened around the knocked-back subordinate.
Jiang Nan shot out a warp bubble in an instant—a thousand kills in a single moment, ten thousand kills!
He shattered that Bose body again and again.
Until it was transparent, only a sliver of health remaining, then abruptly stopped.
By then, Nuoman's domain had finally spread over.
But Jiang Nan had already shot out another warp bubble, arriving before another Bose.
He pulled out a Palm Realm ball from his pocket, bloomed it, knocked the Bose away, pushed aside the domain, and performed Warp Speed Infinite Chain Kill again.
All in one smooth motion.
Nuoman had no chance to get close. Every time he approached, he was knocked away by the blooming realm.
By the time he got there, his subordinate had already been beaten to critical, and Jiang Nan had already warp-speed escaped.
"Three! Great! Next is the fourth!"
"Ready to be ganged up on by me alone, you scum?"
Jiang Nan's voice was like a death warrant, seeming to come from the depths of the Nine Nether Hell.
He eliminated them one by one, elegantly like a gentleman, making everyone hold their breath.
Ye Yuan's eyes sparkled. (◕⁰̷̴꒨⁰̷̴) "Oh? Using Realm Bloom to push away Nuoman's domain with expanding space to shake off its influence? Since a domain also requires space as a carrier? Using the extremely short window before the domain spreads to complete an instant kill at warp speed? Tsk tsk... he hasn't wasted that Palm Realm skill at all."
Yue Li was stunned. ↜(⃔‧̣̥̇°△°)⃕ "What the hell? Nuoman's domain can't affect Jiang Nan either? How is that possible? That's a domain!"
Ye Yuan said calmly, "Jiang Nan's trick can work against a half-baked domain like Nuoman's. But against a stronger domain, it wouldn't be enough."
In a powerful domain, even if pushed away by expanding space, it would quickly spread over and cover it again. You couldn't even prop it open with space.
Clearly, Nuoman wasn't at that level.
Yue Li was speechless. Aren't you just a Star Breaker yourself? Not even at the level of a Planet Destroyer. And you speak so condescendingly?
Ye Yuan grinned. "Alright, no need to watch anymore. The outcome is decided. He didn't mess up. Haha! It'll be over soon!"
Olivia swallowed. (๑ŏ﹏ŏ๑) "If nothing unexpected happens, it should be 13.68 seconds before the fight ends."
By the time Jiang Nan killed off the fifth, Nuoman's domain had already collapsed.
There was no way to maintain the curse array anymore. From then on, it was Jiang Nan's crushing time.
One by one, the Bose were cut down by Jiang Nan until they were transparent.
And leaving Nuoman for last—the feeling of waiting to be crushed was undoubtedly a torment.
The curse array was broken, the domain collapsed. Nuoman's last resort against Jiang Nan was gone.
He was utterly disarmed, his Holy Execution Blade knocked away. Again and again, warp-speed slashes cut through Nuoman's body.
He became visibly transparent.
Finally, Jiang Nan pulled out another small glass ball from his pocket, his eyes cold.
"Try this, then."
"Realm Bloom: Triple Heaven Collapse!"
