[Tribunal]
As The Photographer coldly spat out these four words, the aura of the Fourth Order erupted without reservation!
In the surrounding world full of static noise, invisible picture frames emerged out of thin air, like nested rings locking Chen Ling's figure within them!
In this instant, Chen Ling was locked into a photo. Then a second photo took a picture of the first photo, and a third photo took a picture of the second photo...
It was like two mirrors facing each other in parallel, the overlapping mirror images extending out into endless identical worlds... It also felt like using one photo to take a picture of another photo with identical content, countless photos nesting within each other. Ultimately, the original scene collapsed into an extremely small point, sealed in the deepest depths of the endless photos.
Thousands upon tens of thousands of photos superimposed at the same moment, beating Chen Ling's figure down into the deepest depths of the world!
Chen Ling didn't struggle, allowing his body to fall within the photo world. Instead, he was earnestly observing the method this Domain opened, deep in thought.
"Opening a Domain by taking a picture with a hand gesture... I wonder if my Domain is of this type?"
As he fell, he also made a "taking a picture" gesture with both hands in the air, but there wasn't the slightest change within his body... Very clearly, this was not the "key" to opening his Domain.
As Chen Ling was falling, amidst the surrounding static noise, photos were suddenly outlined one by one!
Those photos were similar in style, basically all scenery shots. The very first one was a scene of a green train driving head-on against the backdrop of Mount Fuji. And as the aura of the Domain gradually grew denser, that green train unexpectedly rushed straight out of the flat photo, crashing towards Chen Ling's body amidst a roar!
"In this Domain, 'scenes' that were once captured by the camera will all be materialized and recreated?"
Chen Ling raised his eyebrows in surprise. He flipped and dodged the train's collision like a fluttering butterfly, murmuring to himself.
Boom—!!
In another photo, an active volcano suddenly erupted. Surging magma directly surged out from below, almost submerging Chen Ling's figure within it.
Before Chen Ling could stabilize his body, another missile was fired out from a silo behind him. It almost brushed past his figure and collided with that green train driving away into the distance. The intense firelight instantly bloomed like a blazing sun!
"In terms of functionality, this Domain is quite formidable... Once the Rank is higher, if it can also recreate 'people' it has photographed in the past, then it would be exceptionally monstrous."
The current Chen Ling was like an evaluating master handling things with skill and ease. While directly facing the full power of another person's Domain, he was giving commentary, trying to find some inspiration from it.
Outside the Domain.
The Photographer looked at Chen Ling who was beaten down to the ends of the world, struggling bitterly within. His hanging heart finally dropped.
"I told you, there's no need to worry so much." He coldly snorted. "That strike just now probably required some kind of price, or had a strict limit on the number of uses... Without that strike, his strength is actually quite average."
"Don't delay anymore, kill him as soon as possible." The Caucasian Man beside him gritted his teeth and spoke.
"I don't need you to teach me how to do things."
The Photographer glanced at him disdainfully, pushing the Domain to its limits.
Over a hundred photos emerged around Chen Ling. Various scenes stored within materialized madly. Surging flames, speeding high-speed rails, roaring planes, momentary explosions... Countless lethal methods completely submerged him like a vast ocean wave!
Chen Ling fell into the deepest depths of the photo world. Countless lights and shadows interweaved in those pupils. He spoke calmly:
"This Domain, I have basically figured it out thoroughly..."
"It is time, to try that out."
Amidst the sea of fire capable of destroying heaven and earth, he switched the Bone-Stripping Knife to his left hand, and reached his right hand into his clothes, pulling out a pitch-black Handgun...
That Handgun was taken from those armed muscular men when he instantly killed them all just now. And now, this Handgun was Chen Ling's key... It was just, the key to opening another treasure trove.
The pitch-black muzzle was raised by Chen Ling, pointing straight at the thousands of photo frames nested together above, seemingly endless...
Chen Ling parted his lips slightly, and slowly spat out three words:
"— [Tribunal]."
Swoosh—!!
The moment his voice rang out, the surging sea of fire around Chen Ling was instantly extinguished!
A Domain extended from beneath Chen Ling's feet, tearing all the photo frames overhead to pieces. In front of this Domain, The Photographer's [Ten Thousand Scenes Framing] was like an immature toy, wantonly trampled and deformed!
Pfft!
The Photographer fiercely spurted out a mouthful of fresh blood, his face pale as paper!
"What's going on?!" The Caucasian Man looked at this crumbling photo world and spoke in terror, "Another aura of a Domain? Can't you suppress him?!"
"Suppress? Fuck, you try suppressing him!!"
The Photographer cursed loudly, his eyes staring fixedly at the distance. "What... Domain is this??"
Photos filling the sky were torn to shreds. A figure holding a knife in one hand and a gun in the other walked out from it unhurriedly.
His appearance was like burning a huge hole into this photo world. The surrounding sky full of static noise was madly receding... The original black and white world fell apart. At the same time, giant pillars rose from the marble ground!
The original Domain was collapsing. A new Domain took over the battlefield!
"Fuck!"
The Caucasian Man realized the situation wasn't right, and without hesitation, flew off into the distance. His strength and speed were extremely fast, flying extremely far in an instant!
But the next moment, a desk emerged out of thin air in the nothingness before his eyes. Following closely behind, four wooden fences sped over from four directions, locking him behind the desk like a cage, forcefully trapping him on the spot!
The Caucasian Man's heart jumped. Before he could make a move, he disappeared instantly along with that desk. When he reappeared, he had returned to the center of those giant pillars!
And on the surface of that desk, a black sign was slowly outlined:
— [Defendant].
Not just him, The Photographer was equally trapped in a defendant's seat. The two looked around in astonishment, and found that unknowingly, they had already been imprisoned by a black tribunal!
And right now in front of them, a tall desk rose from the ground, like a divine seat judging justice, holy and extremely oppressive!
Behind that long judgment desk, a figure holding a knife in one hand and a gun in the other slowly walked out.
Chen Ling stood behind the towering desk, overlooking the two [Defendant]s in the court. In the unseen world, the authority to judge all had already gathered in his hands... In this Domain, he was the master of judgment!
"Is this... the true appearance of the [Tribunal]?" Chen Ling murmured to himself.
