"You dared touch my people?"

Lin Feng's calm voice was not loud, yet it seemed to carry some supreme decree of the Heavenly Dao.

The instant those words rang out, the entire world fell still.

The torrent of laws unleashed jointly by four Grand Unity Golden Immortals, gathering the power of four top-tier Innate Spirit Treasures—the Fan Tian Seal, Yin Yang Mirror, Immortal Slaying Sword, and Heaven and Earth Circle—an attack capable of blasting the entire East Sea back into chaos, suddenly froze without warning in the void less than an inch from Three Immortal Islands.

Time seemed to have stopped.

Space seemed to have frozen.

The violent energy, the shattered laws, the aura of annihilation—all of it was firmly locked in place by an invisible yet omnipresent terrifying force.

Unable to move.

Bi Xiao, who had already closed her eyes and prepared for the destruction of her soul, abruptly opened them.

The death she had expected did not come.

She lifted her head and witnessed the most absurd, yet most shocking, sight of her life.

That attack, enough to drive every living being beneath a Saint into despair, simply hung silently in midair like a Scroll Painting of destruction meticulously frozen by an artist.

At the other end of the painting, Guang Chengzi, Chi Jingzi, Taiyi Zhenren, and Huanglong Zhenren remained in their full-force attacking stances.

Guang Chengzi held the Fan Tian Seal in his palm, his face bearing the coldness of one passing judgment upon all living beings.

Taiyi Zhenren stood atop the Wind Fire Wheels, the savage killing intent in his eyes not yet faded.

Chi Jingzi and Huanglong Zhenren wore equally ferocious expressions, their mana pouring forth without reservation.

They... seemed not to have realized what had happened.

Their attack had been stopped?

How was that possible!

These were four Grand Unity Golden Immortals, the foremost fighting force among the Twelve Golden Immortals of the Sect of Elucidation, striking together!

Forget a mere Three Immortal Islands—even the heavenly gates of the Ancient Demon Court could be blasted open with a hole!

Who could stop them? Who would dare?

Guang Chengzi's mind went blank for a moment.

He could clearly sense that his connection to the Fan Tian Seal had not been severed. The world-destroying power still surged within it, yet it could not advance even an inch.

It was as though an invisible, untouchable, yet utterly insurmountable abyss lay before it.

This was not an array, much less the defense of some magic treasure.

This was... absolute suppression on the Law Level!

Using a higher-dimensional "principle" to forcibly overwrite the "laws" they took such pride in!

The thought exploded through Guang Chengzi's mind like Chaos Divine Thunder, sending a chill through his entire body.

A Saint!

Only a Heavenly Dao Sage could accomplish something like Words Manifest as Law, overturning heaven and earth!

But which Saint was it?

His teacher, Yuanshi Tianzun? Impossible!

Taiqing Sage? Even less possible. He had always remained detached and inactive.

The Two Sages of the West? Sect Master Tongtian?

Just as Guang Chengzi's mind shook wildly and he frantically guessed, Lin Feng moved.

He could not even be bothered to spare the four Chan Sect Golden Immortals another glance, as if they were merely four stones by the roadside, utterly insignificant.

With an arm around Qiong Xiao's slender waist, Lin Feng vanished from where he stood as though taking a leisurely stroll. The next instant, he appeared directly before the frozen torrent of energy.

This action made Bi Xiao's heart skip a beat.

That was an attack capable of destroying everything! Even if it had been immobilized, it was like a volcano that could erupt at any moment. Getting that close was practically dancing on a blade's edge!

Yet Qiong Xiao appeared very calm. There was even a faint smile of pride on her face as she obediently nestled in Lin Feng's embrace, as if so long as she was beside this man, even the collapse of the heavens had nothing to do with her.

Lin Feng ignored the dumbfounded four immortals of the Sect of Elucidation, and he ignored the terrified Bi Xiao as well.

His gaze fell upon the dazzling yet deadly torrent of multicolored energy. He frowned slightly, as though displeased that it blocked his path.

Then Lin Feng extended his right hand, and his long index finger lightly touched the very center of that mass of energy.

There was no earth-shattering explosion.

No world-destroying impact.

At the instant that finger touched the energy.

That terrifying attack, capable of destroying islands and suppressing Grand Unity Golden Immortals, vanished silently like a soap bubble poked open, like smoke scattered by a gentle breeze.

Starting from within, it broke apart inch by inch and turned into the purest spiritual energy, dispersing between heaven and earth without even stirring a ripple.

A breeze swept past, and the sea returned to perfect calm.

It was as though that world-ending scene had never happened.

At this moment, heaven and earth fell into utter silence.

Bi Xiao's mouth hung open as she stared blankly at the scene, her mind completely losing the ability to think.

If stopping an attack with a single word had been a Saint's method, then what was this Casual Finger Point?

Even a Saint's strike could not possibly be so effortless!

This had already exceeded everything she understood about the word "powerful"!

On the other side, Guang Chengzi and the others were even more stunned, their entire bodies rigid as if struck by lightning.

Pfft!

Huanglong Zhenren, the weakest among them, suffered a violent shock to his mind and directly spat out a mouthful of golden Dao blood. All color drained from his face, leaving only endless terror in his eyes.

Chi Jingzi and Taiyi Zhenren were equally pale, clutching their magic treasures tightly, their palms drenched in cold sweat.

Guang Chengzi's pupils had contracted to the limit.

It was gone.

The strongest attack the four of them had unleashed together by activating their Natal Magic Treasures was just... gone?

Without even a sound?

What the hell was this monster!

His pride, his dignity as the senior brother of the Sect of Elucidation, and the confidence he drew from having a Saint behind him were crushed to pieces at this moment.

An emotion called fear began to grow wildly from the depths of his primordial spirit for the first time with such clarity, instantly drowning his reason.

"Who... who exactly are you, sir?"

Guang Chengzi forced the words through clenched teeth. His voice was dry and hoarse, devoid of even a trace of his previous arrogance and coldness, leaving only undisguised shock and trembling.

He had no choice but to speak.

Facing an existence he completely could not comprehend, he had to discover the other party's identity and origins.

"You actually dared... interfere in the affairs of my Sect of Elucidation!"

The latter half was practically instinctive, the final struggle and hollow bravado of a Saint's disciple.

Yet Lin Feng still did not look at him.

Lin Feng's gaze rested on Bi Xiao. Seeing the blood at the corner of her lips and her pale face, his brows furrowed even deeper.

Only then did he slowly turn around.

That indifferent gaze finally swept over Guang Chengzi directly for the first time.

There was no emotion in those eyes—no anger, no killing intent, not even contempt.

There was only emptiness.

As though he were looking at an insignificant speck of dust.

With that single glance, Guang Chengzi, a Grand Unity Golden Immortal, felt as if even his primordial spirit were about to freeze and his Dao heart nearly collapse.

Then Lin Feng slowly spoke words so cold they carried no emotion at all.

"Guang Chengzi, try touching her once."
