Ye Guan wasn't joking. He was serious because he believed it was entirely feasible. In other words, with this Universe Mirror, he could kill people across millions of domains. As long as he knew your location, you were as good as dead. A brand new sword technique was taking shape in Ye Guan's mind.

Lou Deyue led Ye Guan and another person into the pavilion, which was elegantly furnished with a tea table and two bookshelves filled with ancient books. Lou Deyue suddenly said, "Young Master Ye, please have a seat."

Ye Guan's gaze returned from the bookshelves as he sat across from the two women. He asked curiously, "Miss Lou, are these ancient books all from the era of the Shen Zhi Civilization?"

Lou Deyue nodded, "Yes, they are."

"May I read them?"

Lou Deyue glanced at Ye Guan and nodded, "Of course."

Qing Zhi, sitting nearby, suddenly expressed her dissatisfaction, "Deyue, you're really showing favoritism. When I came here, it took me a long time to persuade you to let me see these books, but now you've agreed to let Young Master Ye see them right away...It's really infuriating."

Lou Deyue gave Qing Zhi a sidelong glance but said nothing. In fact, those ancient books were extremely precious, as they contained cultivation methods from the Shen Zhi Civilization. These were rarely shared with other civilizations. However, given Ye Guan's generosity, offering the incredible Universe Beholdment Skill so freely, she couldn't be stingy in return.

Lou Deyue poured Ye Guan a cup of spiritual tea and then said, "Young Master Ye, I just heard that you are the successor of First God?"

Ye Guan nodded, "Yes."

Lou Deyue said softly, "First God was indeed a remarkable person. It's a pity."

Ye Guan was curious, "Miss Lou, did you know First God?"

Lou Deyue nodded, "I met him once."

She looked at Ye Guan and continued, "So, does that mean you intend to re-establish a Universal Order?"

Ye Guan nodded, "Yes."

Lou Deyue hesitated before speaking.

Ye Guan smiled, "Miss Lou, please speak freely."

Lou Deyue said seriously, "Young Master Ye, forgive me for being blunt, but establishing a Universal Order may be extremely difficult. You know, the forces within the universe are intricate and complicated. Each force has its own interests. Trying to unify all these forces and have them follow a single set of rules...it's very difficult."

Ye Guan nodded slightly, "I understand."

Qing Zhi, who was beside them, also chimed in, "I think it's worth a try."

Lou Deyue looked at Qing Zhi, who smiled and said, "First God's order can't be said to have completely failed. At least, during the time he was in charge, his First God Universe developed exceptionally well and attracted countless strong individuals. Moreover, the Universe Tribulations in the First God Universe were indeed delayed...so, I believe that the universe and all living beings can coexist, although it is very difficult. This is because all beings are inherently selfish, everyone wants to become the strongest. To achieve that, they have to exploit the universe, and once the exploitation becomes excessive, the universe retaliates..."

She shook her head slightly, "This issue is indeed somewhat unsolvable."

Lou Deyue nodded, "The core problem is that those capable of establishing order are the strongest ones. Creating a new order would mean they have to restrict themselves, and no one is willing to do that..."

She then looked at Ye Guan.

Ye Guan smiled. "I'll take it one step at a time. I'm not in a rush."

Lou Deyue nodded slightly. "Young Master Ye, I have an idea. Would you like to hear it?"

Ye Guan said, "Please go ahead."

Lou Deyue said seriously, "I want to collaborate with you."

Ye Guan was a bit surprised. "Collaborate?"

Lou Deyue nodded. "Yes, collaborate."

"How would we collaborate?"

"Through a cultural exchange."

Upon hearing this, Qing Zhi's expression became serious because the leader of the Primordial Spirit Clan had previously proposed a cultural exchange to Lou Deyue, which she had declined.

What is a cultural exchange?

It refers to two civilizations exchanging their top technologies and martial arts techniques.

The Primordial Spirit Clan had once proposed an exchange with Lou Deyue, but she had declined. While this displeased the clan, they did not dare to force the issue. Although the Shen Zhi Civilization has now completely declined, it still held some hidden strengths and cards. Due to these considerations, the Primordial Spirit Clan maintained a peaceful relationship, not wanting to push things too far. Additionally, the good relationship between Lou Deyue and Qing Zhi facilitated ongoing exchanges, which further discouraged the clan from acting rashly. A gradual approach seemed more feasible.

Ye Guan was curious. "Miss Lou, cultural exchange?"

Qing Zhi smiled. "It means exchanging each other's civilization technologies, cultivation methods, science, divine abilities, and so on..."

Ye Guan looked at Lou Deyue. "Miss Lou, are you most interested in that special spacetime?"

Lou Deyue didn't hide it and nodded slightly.

Ye Guan smiled wryly. "To be honest, I am also studying spacetime. It's extremely profound, and even now, I have only scratched the surface."

Lou Deyue was puzzled. "Didn't your aunt teach you the mysteries of this spacetime?"

Ye Guan shook his head. "No, she wanted me to figure it out myself."

Lou Deyue thought for a moment and then said, "How about this: I research it with you, and in return, I am willing to share the knowledge of my Shen Zhi Civilization with you."

Ye Guan didn't hesitate and nodded immediately. "Alright!"

Lou Deyue looked at Ye Guan. "To be honest, you might be at a disadvantage..."

Ye Guan waved his hand. "Since you are a friend of Miss Qing Zhi, you are my friend too. And since we are friends, let's not worry about these things."

Hearing this, Qing Zhi couldn't help but glance at Ye Guan, a smile appearing on her stunning face.

Lou Deyue looked at Ye Guan and nodded slightly, "Okay."

Ye Guan had wanted to study spacetime with others. After all, his ideas alone were limited. Collaborating with other talented individuals might yield more insights. And the present company, Qing Zhi and Lou Deyue, were undoubtedly suitable partners for this endeavor.

Ye Guan shared his Phantom Edge technique with Qing Zhi and Lou Deyue. Upon witnessing it, both women were astonished.

Lou Deyue said seriously, "Ye Guan, your sword technique is very strong."

Qing Zhi nodded slightly, her expression serious. "Among the younger generation of our Primordial Spirit Clan, perhaps only the saint and saintess could withstand your sword technique."

She looked at Ye Guan and smiled. "Since it was a fair fight, I won't disclose your sword technique to my clan members."

Ye Guan smiled and then asked, "Do you think my sword technique can be improved?"

"Yes!" Both women spoke almost simultaneously.

After speaking, they glanced at each other and laughed.

Lou Deyue said, "You go first."

Qing Zhi smiled. "You go first."

Lou Deyue thought for a moment and then said, "Ye Guan, your sword technique has three frightening aspects. First, its unpredictability. It appears without warning, making it difficult even for someone with eighty percent divinity to defend against it. Second, its predictive nature. Your combat awareness is terrifying. If your opponent's combat awareness isn't on par with yours, they will have no chance against your mysterious sword technique once it appears. The third frightening aspect is the power of this spacetime, which suppresses all existing spacetimes..."

She stood up slowly. "Regarding the first two aspects, Ye Guan, you've nearly reached the current limits of what can be achieved. But you haven't fully utilized the spacetime suppression..."

Ye Guan was curious, "Spacetime suppression?"

Lou Deyue nodded, "Everyone knows that our world is just a dimensional space, and spacetime is infinite. Since your special spacetime can suppress these spacetimes, it can also enslave them..."

Hearing this, Ye Guan's interest was piqued, "Enslave spacetime?"

Lou Deyue nodded, "Yes, make these infinite spacetimes cooperate with you..."

Ye Guan's eyes narrowed. "Domain."

Lou Deyue's eyes showed a hint of surprise. "How did you know?"

Ye Guan smiled, "Actually, my aunt hinted that I should try using a domain before she left, but she didn't elaborate."

Lou Deyue nodded and said seriously, "Ye Guan, your mastery of the sword is profound. You should have already comprehended the Sword Domain. I suggest that you merge your Sword Domain with these infinite spacetimes and your special spacetime to form a unique spacetime Sword Domain. I believe it would be incredibly powerful."

Qing Zhi nodded slightly. "What I think is similar to what Lou Deyue said. In terms of technique, Ye Guan, you have already reached your personal limit, and there’s almost no room for further improvement. Therefore, we can only enhance its power. You should give it a try."

Ye Guan smiled. "I'll try it now."

With that, he slowly closed his eyes.

Soon, his Sword Domain enveloped the surroundings, and Ye Guan released his Invincible Sword Intent, which contained the power of the Delayed Spacetime. Ye Guan began to try suppressing countless spacetimes, making them cooperate with him. Initially, it wasn't smooth, but soon, those special spacetimes began to cooperate. They had no choice. The Delayed spacetime was too terrifying for them to refuse.

On the other side, Lou Deyue watched Ye Guan intently. "If he truly masters this special spacetime Sword Domain, even the saint and saintess of your Primordial Spirit Clan might not be his match..."

Qing Zhi remained silent.

Lou Deyue turned to look at Qing Zhi. "Do you want him to win?"

Qing Zhi shook her head slightly. "Lou Deyue, they are having a fair duel. If the Primordial Spirit Clan wins, I will be happy. If he wins, I will also be happy. The Primordial Spirit Clan can afford to win and lose."

Lou Deyue shook her head. "Just because you think that way doesn't mean others in the Primordial Spirit Clan will."

Qing Zhi frowned.

Lou Deyue continued calmly, "Qing Zhi, we are friends, so I have to warn you. The person who created this special spacetime is not simple. Their power is unprecedentedly terrifying. If your Primordial Spirit Clan dares to play tricks, there could be a risk of extinction..."
