Actually, Xu Yuan only needed to enter Entity 303's domain to win. The hard part was how to get close.
Entity 303's movements earlier clearly showed that he had already sensed danger. There was no way he would let Xu Yuan approach him so easily.
With that in mind, Xu Yuan immediately started brainstorming.
On the other side, Entity 303 also seemed to be deep in thought.
Neither side showed any signs of making a move.
At that moment, the players watching the battle thought their game had frozen.
"Did it freeze? Did it freeze?"
"Are they staring into each other's eyes or taking a nap? Are they going to fight or not…"
"HIM just moved, and Entity 303 immediately backed away several steps. I thought it was about to start, but now they're frozen again?!"
"Is it that whoever moves first loses? Hurry up and fight!!"
"My zombie faction buddy just told me that the Death Knight explained that HIM has a domain, and Entity 303 probably has one too, so neither of them wants to attack first."
"Huh? Domain? What's a domain?"
"A domain is basically a god's space. You're the god in that space, and you can do whatever you want."
"Anything? Can you, uh, do that? (smirk)"
"Damn? That's so OP? No wonder HIM always insta-kills everyone…"
"No wonder neither of them moved. Since they both have domains, they can't break each other's attacks?"
"If both have domains and are invincible, then how do they even fight?"
"Don't know. My buddy said the Death Knight isn't sure either. We'll just have to watch…"
"I saw just now HIM took a few steps forward, scared Entity 303 to retreat, probably HIM has a way to restrain Entity 303's domain!"
"Having a way to restrain is useful? Entity 303 also wouldn't stupidly stand there and get beaten, right?"
"This already isn't a domain we mortals can come into contact with... just watch the show..."
Because the Death Knight and Pengpeng's group were also watching from the side, although not in the same place as the players but the information still got passed to the players' ears.
The players were also encountering the concept of a domain for the first time.
Players, unlike HIM and Entity 303 these kinds of existences, are unable to see the domain. However, with the Death Knight's explanation, they could roughly understand what kind of battle this was.
Just as the players were discussing the domain Xu Yuan finally thought of a method to win this battle.
"Then I'll play some optical illusions with you~"
Entity 303 was pondering how to break HIM's domain. But his vision in front of him was suddenly blocked by several pieces of bedrock that appeared out of thin air outside the domain.
"Not good!"
Entity 303, upon seeing this, hurried forward a step, wrapping those pieces of bedrock within the domain.
Once the bedrock was inside the domain, Entity 303 easily destroyed the bedrock.
Although Entity 303's flames could also melt bedrock, it needed three seconds, definitely not as fast as moving his position to place the bedrock inside the domain and breaking it.
After Entity 303 destroyed the bedrock, he once again cast his gaze toward the opposite HIM, seeing HIM still standing in place without any other actions, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
But before that breath could be let out, he immediately sucked it back in.
Because at this moment, the HIM before his eyes was different from before.
Originally, HIM who was not wearing any equipment before, at this moment, was fully armed.
Chest armor, pants, shoes, and even a mask.
And, what was shocking was that the equipment on HIM's body was actually all made of bedrock. A full set of armor in gray-black color, only revealing a pair of eyes emitting white light.
It looked overwhelmingly imposing.
"Damn... so fucking cool..."
Seeing this HIM, even Entity 303, who was supposed to be an enemy, couldn't help but praise.
And at this moment, the players on the side, seeing HIM wearing a full set of bedrock-made equipment, were so envious that their drool was dripping down.
"Holy shit!! This is fucking too cool?!!"
"Ahhhhhh!! HIM!!! I want to have your babies!!"
"I'm folding, I'm totally folding, this set is too perfect for my king..."
"That mask is really the finishing touch, covering the lower half of the face, only revealing a pair of eyes, fucking too cool?!!"
"Suggesting HIM to lock in this set from now on, it's just too fitting!!"
Entity 303 was still sighing in admiration when he suddenly felt that something was off.
"No! His domain disappeared?!"
It was precisely because HIM's outfit was too cool that Entity 303 only now reacted—at this moment, the HIM in front of him seemed to have no domain around him.
"What is he trying to do?..."
Although HIM had now put on equipment and no longer had a domain protecting him, Entity 303 still didn't dare to act rashly because he didn't know exactly what HIM was planning.
Based on his understanding of HIM, this was very likely a trap.
As Entity 303 was thinking, his vision was once again blocked by a row of bedrock.
"Fuck! Is this endless?!"
Entity 303 moved again, covering the bedrock within his domain.
After quickly breaking the bedrock, his vision was restored. Seeing HIM still standing in front of him, Entity 303 was feeling puzzled when—His vision caught something on the left.
On the left, a familiar figure seemed to have appeared. Seeing this, Entity 303 immediately turned his gaze to the left.
"HIM?..."
He saw that, on the left, at some unknown time, there was another HIM identical in appearance and attire to the one right in front of him.
Seeing this, Entity 303 quickly turned his head back to look at the HIM in front of him again.
"A... a clone?..."
Entity 303 had fought with HIM before. As a GM, Entity 303 had even killed one of HIM's clones before. So he wasn't surprised by HIM's clones.
As Entity 303 was thinking, his eyes caught something on the right again.
He found that his right side also had another HIM clone. Seeing this, Entity 303 quickly scanned his surroundings—suddenly, goosebumps covered his entire body.
"One, two, three... eight, nine..."
At this moment, around him, there were nine HIMs identical in every way. They were all wearing full sets of bedrock armor, all exactly the same as the HIM Entity 303 had just seen. And all nine HIMs had no domain around them.
"Shit!! Why are there so many?!!"
At this moment, Entity 303 finally understood why HIM's domain had suddenly disappeared earlier. He was playing optical illusions with him.
At this moment, the players witnessing this epic scene were so shocked they were at a loss for words.
"Hiss... my goosebumps..."
"Not gonna lie, Entity 303 has a strong mentality—if it were me, I would've fainted from fear by now..."
"Too fucking cool!! How can this man be so cool?!!!!"
"Alright, alright, no need to fight over it, there are plenty of HIMs, everyone gets one later~"
"Nine HIMs... I'm fucking mentally gone..."
At this moment, although Entity 303 saw nine HIMs appearing outside his domain at the same time, he was not flustered.
He had fought with HIM before, so he naturally knew that HIM could create clones. The reason HIM created so many clones was definitely to create confusion.
Just now, during their fight, HIM had already made a move to charge forward, and Entity 303 instinctively reacted by stepping back a few paces.
Although Entity 303 didn't know exactly what HIM was capable of, he was certain of one thing—he absolutely could not let HIM enter his domain.
Clearly, HIM's actions now confirmed Entity 303's thoughts. Summoning so many clones had to be a trick to confuse Entity 303. Using the clones as bait, then sneaking the real body into the domain while Entity 303 was distracted.
"Dream on!"
Since Entity 303 had already figured out HIM's strategy, he wouldn't let HIM succeed so easily. Entity 303 quickly dodged away from the closest HIM clones.
With a lift of his hand, a fireball appeared in his palm, shooting rapidly toward a clone below his domain.
At the same time, his left hand threw the scythe at another clone.
Seeing this, HIM immediately controlled the clones to dodge Entity 303's attacks. But Entity 303's fireball was too fast for HIM to react in time.
One of the clones was already hit by the fireball. The fireball burned for three seconds, nearly melting through the bedrock armor, but then, the armor actually started to repair itself!
"Fuck! What a cheat move!" Seeing this, Entity 303 couldn't help but curse.
It had to be said, HIM's ability to create and reshape bedrock at will was truly overpowered. This move was also a direct counter to Entity 303.
Entity 303's flames could melt anything in this world—except bedrock, which took slightly longer, needing three seconds.
HIM was exactly relying on this three-second buffer time to dare to disable his domain and fight Entity 303 head-on.
If Entity 303's flames could instantly melt bedrock, this fight would be unwinnable for HIM.
After breaking free from the HIM clones' encirclement, HIM didn't send the clones to surround him again.
Entity 303 was puzzled—then he noticed that his surroundings were suddenly enclosed entirely by bedrock.
In an instant, Entity 303 lost all visibility. "Not good!"
Entity 303 knew very well that HIM would definitely try to break in while his vision was blocked.
"Looks like I have no choice but to use that move..."
At this moment, high in the sky opposite Xu Yuan, a sphere of bedrock had formed. And Entity 303 was inside that sphere.
Xu Yuan was just about to use his clones to infiltrate Entity 303's domain to test the waters, but suddenly, fire rain began to fall from the sky.
Hail-sized fireballs rained down on the clones. Because the fire rain fell drop by drop, it covered a wide area, causing the bedrock armor to melt faster.
"Didn't expect him to be this good!" Entity 303 had truly mastered the art of fire—he even knew a skill like fire rain.
Seeing this, Xu Yuan immediately created several rows of bedrock shields above, covering the area where the clones stood. Only then did he successfully block Entity 303's attack.
As Xu Yuan dealt with Entity 303's fire rain, Entity 303 had already melted away all the bedrock trapping him. And now, around his domain, three rotating rings of fire had formed.
It seemed to be a precaution against Xu Yuan blocking his vision with bedrock again.
Seeing the rings of fire around Entity 303, Xu Yuan felt a headache. With the fire rings there, bedrock would melt instantly, making it nearly impossible to block Entity 303's vision again and sneak in.
Now, Xu Yuan could only try to break into Entity 303's domain himself. But that move was undoubtedly risky. If he entered the domain and didn't activate his own domain immediately, it would be certain death.
At this point, Xu Yuan had no room for trial and error. 'I have to think of another way...'
As Xu Yuan was troubled, Entity 303 was equally frustrated.
From the beginning until now, although he had countered HIM's attacks, he had been on the defensive the whole time. Entity 303 had no chance to attack—or rather, no way to attack.
He could only manipulate fire, changing its form in various ways.
But HIM's bedrock completely countered him. Even though his flames could melt bedrock, it still took three seconds.
And HIM could keep creating more bedrock.
With bedrock in the way, he couldn't kill HIM instantly. This was essentially a deadlock—an unsolvable situation.
