Through the Telepathic Heart Seal, Chu Qing took in the warm, lively scene within the academy. A remarkably gentle smile curved at the corner of his mouth, and the grim killing aura that had risen in his heart when facing the Sovereign was instantly replaced by tenderness. He turned back to look at the lofty Sovereign, whose face had gone livid, and an unprecedented determination filled his gaze. To protect the warm harbor behind him, and for the true freedom of the All Heavens and myriad realms, he would tear down the Sovereign Throne of the Watchers Headquarters today!
In his head-on clash with the Watchers' supreme Sovereign, Chu Qing had forcefully ripped apart and reverse-engineered the Fate Deprivation Protocol with his invincible Simplification Dao Fruit. Yet the colossal throne floating deep within the Void Forbidden Zone continued to radiate terrifying currents of karmic chaos. They were the accumulated laws of deathly stillness and destruction from countless Epochs, transformed into a towering black storm that ceaselessly eroded Chu Qing's protective Dao foundation. Even a Daluo body had to constantly expend immense magic power to resist that corrosive force originating from the source of the All Heavens while standing at the center of this karmic vortex where all eternity converged.
As the battlefield grew ever more oppressive and perilous, the Watchers Sovereign's cold voice, devoid of even a trace of emotional fluctuation, rang out from the black karmic storm once more, seeking to utterly crush Chu Qing through his Dao heart:
``` [Destruction Edict: Target detected within karmic chaos. Activating the 'Eternal Sorrow' curse.]
[Logical Attack: Forcibly depriving all emotional bonds of their meaning, reconstructing 'longing' and 'protection' into meaningless illusory phantoms. Within this eternal land of death, every bond you possess shall crumble into ruins with the karmic storm. None
