Chapter 9 – Breakthrough: Planetary Pulse and Dual Domain Ascension
The Western Desert was dead silent.
Beneath the blazing sun, the land shimmered with heat — but in the middle of a circular field carved into the earth, Luo Chen stood still as stone, eyes closed, heart like a volcano.
His body trembled faintly, and invisible force rippled from his skin like low-frequency sound.

BOOM.
A shockwave burst from his body, sending a ring of sand spiraling outward.
Luo Chen's skin shimmered with starlight. His body felt reborn — not only stronger, but deeper.

His breathing calmed. The sky above darkened.
He raised his hand—
And space rippled like water.

[Space Domain – Level 2: Gravity Thread Compression]
Luo Chen focused on a boulder 50 meters away.
In a blink, dozens of invisible space threads coiled around it, compressing its mass.
CRACK!
The boulder imploded — not shattered by force, but crushed by collapsed gravitational tension.
> [Thread Density Control: Activated]
[Gravity Thread Compression Field Radius: 15 meters]
In a real battle, a human body would rupture under this force before they could scream.

[Time Domain – Level 2: Temporal Loop Illusion]
Luo Chen stepped forward.
Then—stepped back.
Again.
And again.
But from an outside view, he hadn't moved at all.
Within a 0.3-second time loop, Luo Chen had created a recursive illusion, causing his presence to flicker — unpredictable.
To the eye, he appeared to teleport erratically.
To monsters that relied on timing — he was a ghost.

As the wind howled across the desert, Luo Chen stood alone… yet invincible in his domain.
His clone, meditating a few meters away, absorbed ambient space-time particles, accelerating understanding of higher-domain mechanics.

Suddenly, the System chimed softly in his mind.

Would you like to enter the Virtual Universe Bank to access your inheritance?
Luo Chen smiled slightly.
Not yet.
"Soon. But first… I'll master this battlefield."
He turned, leapt 100 meters in a single step, and vanished into a space-fold blink, beginning real combat simulations using Domain + Planetary strength.
