"The cycle of life and death intertwines here, giving rise to new buds of birth and death."
A phantom white lotus, formed from terrifying energy, guards the newborn girl as she gradually blooms amidst soft whispers.
The Herrscher of Life and Death's attire—a snow-white dress—replaced the Lolita of the Twin Shores. However, unlike the original, after merging the power of the sea and the tree, the boundary between life and death became even clearer on this body.
Slowly opening her beautiful, luminous eyes that shone with divine light, the girl's pretty face radiated a tenderness of life.
She gently lifted the vessel of the soul, which was surrounded by snow-white walls, as if calling out to it.
“Souls of the sea, please listen to the melody of life.”
Kiana stared in astonishment at the transformed Seele, her mouth agape and her eyes wide.
"So... so beautiful..."
She was completely absorbed in watching; the pure, lotus-like feeling was incredibly captivating.
Bronya, too, stared intently, unable to look away.
Without a doubt, her thoughts are the same as those of that idiot Kiana.
Although Seele usually looks pretty, compared to this, it's like the difference between Cinderella and a swan!
If it weren't for the inappropriate occasion, Bronya would probably have already gone over and started yelling at them.
However, after realizing that it was Jiang Qiao inside, Ya Ya became a little conflicted.
This...this is a betrayal of Seele!
Bronya is devoted to Seele, while Jiang Qiao, this imposter who took Seele's body, is no match for Seele at all!
But... this version of 'Jiang Xier' is so beautiful, I'm so smitten...
While struggling with her thoughts, Bronya suddenly realized—wait, isn't Jiang Qiao currently using Seele's body?
Even if Bronya likes 'Jiang Xier', she only likes [Xier]!
Since it's Seele's body, how can liking her be considered betrayal? It's called loyalty!
Bronya is still devoted to Seele!
With this thought in mind, Ya Ya suddenly felt enlightened and planned to bring 'Jiang Xi'er' to her room to play games together after the battle.
Although Bronya was somewhat troubled by the fact that 'Jiang Xier' didn't have a 'control lever' to use, the thought of playing happily with the beautiful and capable 'Jiang Xier' still made her heart flutter.
Hmm...right, I should really start training afterwards...but sparring with that idiot Kiana is totally pointless...I've decided! I'll have Jiang Qiao, disguised as 'Seele,' spar with me! She's beautiful, skilled, and incredibly helpful...As for Seele, I'll leave her to Kiana for now! Let Kiana supervise Seele's training!
While Bronya was distracted, the Herrschers of Domination also came to their senses.
"You, you, you're cheating!"
"How is this possible? How could you actually succeed?"
"Cheating! That's despicable! You immoral bastard!"
The Herrschers of Domination looked at the newly transformed 'Seele', who was now radiating terrifying power, and chattered in fury.
To this, 'Seele' simply chuckled:
"I don't want to be talked about like that by you guys."
"So, are you going to admit defeat?"
The girl smiled as she gently cradled the vessel containing the soul.
"Dream on! You're delusional!"
"We haven't lost yet!"
"It's just the power of two Herrschers, what's with the arrogance! We have a thousand, plus the power we snatched from that idiot Herrscher of Reason, and the power of the Herrscher of Rock, a total of one thousand and two!"
"Even if you have the power of an additional Herrscher, the advantage still belongs to me! Don't get me wrong, we are the stronger side!" The doll stretched out its neck and shouted angrily.
"And so what if you become a Herrscher too? We'll still be waiting for you!"
"We were just playing around with you guys earlier, we haven't gotten serious yet!"
"Charge! Take down these three traitors!"
The puppets swarmed in, their anger boundless.
A thousand Lawbringers may seem like a small number, but they are not insignificant either.
In particular, the thousand-person law enforcement system of this era is quite different from that of previous civilizations.
The thousand Lawbringers of the pre-civilization era meant that every one killed was one less to be killed.
However, even if one of the thousand Herrschers in the current era kills a puppet, it does not mean that the number of members has been completely reduced.
As long as the core and the host are still there, they can be reborn, which is why they can be produced continuously.
And just as they said, they really didn't do anything serious.
For example, Chen Tianwu, as the Herrscher of Rock, doesn't have much power when it's spread out. It can only interfere with the enemy. The puppets are just trying to exhaust Kiana and Bronya, then completely destroy their hopes, capture them, and make them part of the thousand.
In that way, the power belonging to the Herrscher of Reason and the power belonging to the Herrscher of Void would become a complete part of them, just like the Herrscher of Rock, instead of merely seizing the right to use it, as it is now.
To achieve such results, it's not enough to just break down the body; the spirit must also be broken down. In addition, Kiana and Bronya's positive and optimistic attitude is something that the dolls resent and dislike.
For the rulers who are born from people's negative emotions, everything that yearns for the good of humanity is a target for them to defeat and a source of their suffering.
Only when those happy, smiling people become like them will they be happy and able to smile.
"Well, there's nothing we can do about that then."
"In that case, I can only turn to you to talk about violence."
Gently lifting the vessel containing the soul, the girl sighed, shook her head, and then her lips parted slightly:
"Please come with me back to the embrace of the trees and the sea."
The vessel containing the soul emitted a dazzling light, and then the air seemed to pause.
The next moment, the surrounding scenery changed.
A scene belonging to the Sea of Quanta—but unlike the original, this fused Herrscher power also includes a scene belonging to trees.
A breathtaking sea view.
A magnificent tree shape.
The two contradictory elements have come together.
But the Heralds of Domination were not in the mood to appreciate the beautiful scenery; instead, they showed expressions of shock and anger.
"What happened...the connection...is lost?!"
"It's you?! How is this possible? This is clearly our Dominion Theater!"
The puppets were filled with surprise, doubt, and immense anger.
The powerful immortality, or rather regenerative ability, of the Law of Domination originates from this Theater of Domination.
In this special imaginary space, besides having the home-field advantage and being able to manipulate everything in this space, the most important thing is to use it to maintain the connection with the real-world 'host'.
It can be said that as long as this connection is not severed, killing those puppets will be meaningless.
Theoretically, only the Lawrence of Emptiness, the Lawrence of Binding, and the Lawrence of Void who wields the power of imaginary numbers can achieve this.
Of course, what other Herrschers can do is basically 'destruction'.
Only the Herrscher of the Void can truly wrest control of space from the Herrschers of Domination and sever their connection with the outside world.
Can...
As this sea of trees unfolded, the dolls were horrified to discover that all connections had been severed.
This also means that killing any puppet nowadays truly means one less puppet to kill!
There are a total of one thousand. Once we kill all the Herrschers of Domination, we'll really be done with it.
"Isn't it obvious? My Herrscher barrier has isolated your Herrscher barrier from the outside." 'Seele' chuckled.
Just like Alicia's 'Flawless Dome' and the Herrscher of the Void's 'Imaginary Space'... basically every Herrscher has their own unique... well, you could call it a domain skill, but given that the Great Prisoner next door has almost ruined this thing, let's just call it a barrier.
Originally, the barrier of the Herrscher of Life and Death was a 'damage' type of combat barrier, similar to the Thunder Domain created by the Herrscher of Thunder and the Wind Domain created by the Herrscher of Wind, and its isolation properties were not particularly outstanding.
However, after the two forces merged, the barrier of the Herrscher of Life and Death became less pure.
If the original Herrscher of Life and Death barrier only had a negative impact on the enemy, then it could be used to its fullest potential.
So now, this 'life-death barrier'—which Jiang Qiao calls 'the cycle of birth and death' or 'the gap between the other shores'—truly means exactly what it says.
All those dragged into this area will be directly plunged into a life-or-death situation created by the power of the tree and the sea.
It directly covers the Domination Theater of the Herrschers.
Or rather, in this life-or-death situation, it is perfectly reasonable for the Ruler of Domination to have any connection with the Domination Theater.
"Well then, it's my turn again."
While the dolls were still bewildered, the girl smiled sweetly and raised the scythe in her hand:
"Kill them, Diana!"
