To do this would be considered risky for anyone, even Qin Ming, who remained highly focused, staring hard at his opponent, seriously assessing the situation. Had this been a life-and-death battlefield, he would have acted long ago, never allowing "a tiger to grow and become a threat."

"Hmm?" Qin Ming noticed that the charred weapon in Helian Zhaoyu's hand was rather unusual, its inherent Spiritual energy was extraordinarily abundant.

"The fusion of the Divine's Pure Land is not about completely stacking together, but requires breaking it down first, then reshaping it." Helian Zhaoyu spoke.

One could observe his four kinds of Inner View merging, reconstituting a piece of the Divine's Pure Land.

Within, the mountains and rivers were majestic, the Duke of Thunder and Mother of Lightning flickered in and out, sword worms like a vast scattering of stars adorned the scene, water and Fire transformed into Yin Yang, with Gonggong Dharma Form and Zhurong Golden Body lifelike, both guarding Helian Zhaoyu.

"Thank you for allowing my four Inner Views to unify. If I hope to become an Earth Immortal or Heavenly God in the future, it's all thanks to you." Helian Zhaoyu smiled, his gaze sharp, like cold lightning.

Qin Ming interrupted him, saying, "Do you think you're capable now?"

Helian Zhaoyu was not angered, his aura continuously climbed, the mountains and rivers, thunder, insect Domain, and Yin Yang Diagram completely fused. His hair danced wildly, and the heavy snowfall shattered and disintegrated before even reaching him.

The place where he stood was a dazzling brilliance, exuding a sacred radiance.

He said in a deep voice, "I believe I can now rival the Ancient Saints in their youth, come on!"

"Wait, the weapon in your hand is the prize this time, isn't it?" Qin Ming asked.

Helian Zhaoyu coldly replied, "Your appetite is rather large. It is a weapon crafted from Nine Death Wood, but if you win, what's the harm in giving it to you!"

In the distance, everyone gasped.

Even several Old Grandmasters revealed astonished expressions; such material was highly coveted even by them.

What is Nine Death Wood? It is derived from a Treasure Tree that has undergone nine tribulations, also known as the Nine Lives Tree.

According to records, there is a miraculous wood between Heaven and Earth that, after a thousand years, succumbs to tribulations and dies. After lying dormant for a hundred years, it revives and resurges, only to undergo another thousand years before facing tribulations again, and dies for another hundred years, then revives once more to grow for another millennium...

It continues thus, each growth period lasting a thousand years, and each death period lasting a hundred years, with each tribulation primarily consisting of Heavenly Tribulation, Heavenly Light Tribulation, and the Fire Tribulation from Outside the World.

"It truly is the Nine Lives Tree, nine lives and nine deaths, what a pity, it endured nine tribulations but couldn't reach the tenth millennial living period, otherwise, what a supreme treasure it would become, just one more growth period short!" the Great Grandmaster Ling Canghai sighed.

This pitch-black Divine Measuring Ruler was crafted from the purest essence of the Nine Tribulations Immortal Tree's heart.

Qin Ming suddenly remembered that back in Da Yu Imperial City, Pei Shuyan had warned him, saying Helian Zhaoyu was very dangerous and had forged a destructive Exotic Treasure using the Dragon Energy of the Imperial Palace.

Now that he thought about it, it must be this charred Divine Measuring Ruler.

"Then I shall accept it reluctantly," Qin Ming said indifferently. In the eyes of Helian Zhao Hui, Helian Mingxu, and others, he was undoubtedly a major antagonist.

Helian Zhaoyu's gaze was icy, as if he wished to gouge out pieces of flesh from Qin Ming.

"Today, with four Views becoming one, standing in this Domain, I am invincible!" He made his move, the Divine's Pure Land radiated brightly, unleashing limitless power. He swung the Divine Measuring Ruler in his hand toward his opponent's head.

Qin Ming deliberately probed the weapon, using the Mutton Fat Jade Iron Blade to counterattack, and as a result, in the clash of metal, the newly tempered white blade developed slight hairline cracks again.

He immediately sheathed his blade with satisfaction; though it was a wooden weapon, it was sturdier than the Mutton Fat Jade Treasure Blade.

The next moment, a Moyu Hammer appeared in Qin Ming's hand, unleashing a thunderous roar as it swung with the infusion of Hunyuan Force, Heavenly Light illuminating the pitch-black night sky.

This time, Helian Zhaoyu felt somewhat at a loss, for even with his four Views fused and Divine's Pure Land transformed, he was still injured, blood trickling from the corners of his mouth.

"I...!" He was shocked and angry, this was already the strongest form he could exhibit, no matter the effort, he couldn't improve any further.

Yet, as the two clashed, he was startled to find himself still at a disadvantage.

He held the Shanhai Seal in his left hand, the Thunder Spear in his right, the Divine Measuring Ruler suspended above his head, while the Gonggong Dharma Form and Zhurong Golden Body had already fused with his flesh, and the sword worms, like countless stars, rushed forward.

However, he couldn't suppress his opponent.

Every strike of Qin Ming's hammer caused blood to spurt from Helian Zhaoyu's mouth and nose, and those sword worms, comparable to Flying Swords, were smashed and shattered in mid-air.

Helian Zhaoyu was becoming numb, the blow to him was immensely severe.

In truth, Qin Ming was also secretly shocked; he used the Silk Scripture Meaning to command All Laws, employing the Mixed Elements Return to Unity's Heavenly Light Force, yet his opponent could continuously block, it was indeed "beyond the standard"!

Normally, using his killer move in a decisive battle implied rapidly concluding the match, determining the victor.

In Qin Ming's left hand, the Hunyuan Force unraveled like Golden Silkworm spinning silk, a net of light enveloping, trapping all sword worms, which were then completely shredded.

In his right hand, the Moyu Hammer erupted with brilliance akin to a Big Sun crossing the sky, smashing Helian Zhaoyu's Shanhai Seal, Thunder Spear, and causing the Divine Measuring Ruler to quiver greatly.

Helian Zhaoyu continued to resist and fight, but ultimately he was still defeated. Blood dripped from the corners of his mouth.

Inside him, the sound of cracks and snaps were continuous, at least forty bones were broken.

Helian Zhaoyu's eyes were incredibly cold, the glare wishing to cut two pieces of flesh from him.

"You...!" Overwhelmed with shock and anger, he realized this was the strongest state he could manifest, and no further effort would have sufficed.

"Even if the four Views are one, standing in this Domain, I am undefeated!" He struck again, the Divine's Pure Land radiated brilliantly, unleashing infinite force as he swung the Divine Measuring Ruler at his opponent.

Qin Ming intended to probe this weapon, wielding the Mutton Fat Jade Iron Blade in counter. With the ringing clashes, the newly warmed, snowy blade developed a few tiny cracks.

He immediately sheathed his blade, quite satisfied. Though it was a wooden weapon, it was more durable than the Mutton Fat Jade Treasure Blade.

The next moment, a Moyu Hammer appeared in Qin Ming's hand. With a thunderous clap, it swung as he infused it with Hunyuan Force, the Heavenly Light illuminating the pitch-black night sky.

This time, Helian Zhaoyu was somewhat bewildered, because even with all four Views united and the Divine's Pure Land evolved, he was still injured, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth.

As both continued to clash, Helian Zhaoyu was shocked and furious, "I...!" This was the best he could muster, despite all his effort, he couldn't suppress his opponent.

He wielded the Shanhai Seal in his left, the Thunder Spear in his right, with the Divine Measuring Ruler trembling violently at the crushing force.

Despite his continuous resistance and fierce combat, ultimately, during the collision, Helian Zhaoyu was defeated, the resounding impact shattering at least forty bones within him.

Helian Zhaoyu's eyes lost their light, snowflakes hitting his face as he gazed at the cold abyss of the night sky, the defeat this time had utterly shattered his confidence.

"Even though Helian Zhaoyu has suffered nine tribulations and experienced nine lives and nine deaths, it's a pity he hasn't managed to open the tenth millennial life cycle, otherwise it would have been a supreme treasure!" lamented the Great Grandmaster Ling Canghai.

This black lacquer Divine Measuring Ruler was forged from the essence of the Nine Tribulations Immortal Tree.

Qin Ming suddenly remembered that when he was in the Da Yu Imperial City, Pei Shuyan had warned him about Helian Zhaoyu being very dangerous and having forged a deadly Exotic Treasure using the Dragon Energy from the Imperial Palace.

Now that he thought about it, it must be this charred Divine Measuring Ruler.

"I suppose I'll reluctantly accept it then." Qin Ming said coolly. To Helian Zhaohui, Helian Mingxu, and the others, he was undoubtedly the villain.

Helian Zhaoyu's eyes were ice-cold, his glare seemingly wishing to carve out two pieces of Qin Ming's flesh.

"Today, with the Unity of Four Views, standing in this Domain, I am invincible!" He unleashed his attack, the Divine's Pure Land radiating brightly, releasing an infinite power. He swung the Divine Measuring Ruler towards Qin Ming's head.

Qin Ming sought to test this weapon, using the Mutton Fat Jade Iron Blade in his counterattack. The resounding clang of the battle echoed, and a few tiny fractures reappeared on the newly tempered white blade.

He immediately withdrew the blade, quite satisfied. Though it was a wooden weapon, it was sturdier than the Mutton Fat Jade Treasure Blade.

The next moment, a Moyu Hammer materialized in Qin Ming's hand, and with a thunderous sound, he swung it, infusing it with Hunyuan Force, the Heavenly Light illuminating the dark night sky.

This time, Helian Zhaoyu was somewhat bewildered, because even though he had achieved the Unity of the Four Views and the transformation of the Divine's Pure Land, he was still injured, blood trickling from his mouth.

In shock and anger, he realized that this was the best form he could achieve. No further effort would have yielded a better result.

Yet, against all odds, he could not suppress his opponent.

Every time Qin Ming's hammer descended, it made Helian Zhaoyu's mouth and nose bleed, and those sword worms, as numerous as stars, were shattered as they charged forward.

As Helian Zhaoyu continued to resist and battle, he was ultimately defeated, his body rattling with the sounds of at least forty fractured bones.

Helian Zhaoyu lay there, his eyes lifeless, snowflakes striking his face, and stared at the cold, dark sky. This crushing defeat was too much for him to bear.

Even Helian Canghai, the old Grandmaster, was taken aback, for this material was something they had all greatly desired.

"Notable, he is indeed a seed comparable to Jiang Ran, to be so powerful in the same Domain!" a distinguished veteran said while watching Qin Ming with endless admiration.

"Ahem, this brother's boast has indeed come true, claiming that the place he stood was the strongest Domain, and he's living up to it, at least even top-tier Divine Seeds from the Esoteric Buddhism are no match for him."

Li Qingxu stared blankly, being from the Sect Realm, but now, Qin Ming's Taoist accomplishments have caught up to him.

Wang Caiwei came to her senses, feeling a chill down her spine. She had considerable resentment towards Qin Ming, and now she felt powerless to contend with him.

The news of the great Pure Land top-tier seed battle that day spread rapidly, causing an uproar in all directions.

At that moment, Qin Ming had already left, heading to an important subsect of Esoteric Buddhism—the Heavenly God Palace, to acquire the last fragmented Scripture.
