White blank radiance swept across the Myriad Origins Core Region like a silent tide. This power had no energy fluctuations, no law imprints, and not the slightest trace of aura, yet it carried the ultimate deathly silence of "erasing everything and returning to the void." It was not destruction, but the transformation of the Same Origin Power of Myriad Origins, the Existence Imprints of living beings, and even the operating trajectories of laws into "blankness," as though they had never existed. This was precisely the power of the Lord of the Void, originating from the Void Blank Domain Beyond Myriad Origins. It was an even more primordial will of "zeroing out" than that of the Ancestor of Dominion.
The multicolored radiance of the Myriad Origins Same Origin Talisman rapidly faded within the white radiance. The originally brilliant talisman gradually became transparent, as if all meaning of existence had been drained from it. Xuan Fu could clearly feel his Myriad Realms Primordial Power being "blanked out." The seven-colored purple-gold crystal forming the talisman's body began to lose its luster, and even his Spiritual Sense briefly went blank, as though he would completely disappear in the next moment.
"Lord of the Void... it really exists." The black-and-white figure of the Primordial Lord trembled violently. The speed at which his Primordial Origin Power was being blanked out far exceeded his expectations. "According to legend, it was the void itself before Myriad Origins was born. Every time it appeared, some existences would be turned into blankness."
The gray will of the Lord of the Chaos Abyss also revealed rare apprehension. "Blankness is more terrifying than devouring. Devouring still leaves traces to follow, but blankness can reduce everything to absolute zero, leaving not even the possibility of revival." Without the slightest hesitation, he caused the Chaos Abyss Power to surge. It interwove once more with the powers of the Primordial Lord and Xuan Fu, forming a Myriad Origins Guardian Talisman in an attempt to block the spread of the white radiance.
But the strangeness of the blank power far exceeded all known forces. The radiance of the guardian talisman was rapidly diluted and blanked out, like ink dropped into clear water. The beings of Myriad Origins began to panic. Some beings in the peripheral regions had already turned transparent before vanishing completely, leaving behind not even a trace that they had ever existed. The origins of the Myriad Realms and the Primordial Pure Land were also rapidly being blanked out, and the results of their previous revival were on the verge of returning to zero.
"Use Same Origin as fuel and ignite the Fire of Existence!" Xuan Fu burned the origin of the Myriad Realms Core, forcibly awakening the Spiritual Sense that had been blanked out. "Myriad Origins Beings, condense your Existence Imprints! Existence is not nothingness. Same Origin has meaning!"
His voice pierced through the white radiance and entered the consciousness of every living being. The beings of Myriad Origins awakened from their panic and began condensing their own Existence Imprints. This was a power more primordial than faith, the ultimate imprint proving, "I once existed." Countless faint Existence Imprints converged into a river and, following the bond of Myriad Origins Same Origin, poured into the Myriad Origins Guardian Talisman.
The Primordial Lord and the Lord of the Chaos Abyss also burned their core origins, merging the Existence Imprints of the Primordial and the Chaos Abyss into the guardian talisman. Its radiance was no longer multicolored or black and white, but transformed into a warm golden light. This was the Myriad Origins Fire of Existence, specially suited to countering blank power. It could restore the meaning of existence to things that had been blanked out.
When the Fire of Existence collided with the white blank radiance, there was no earth-shaking explosion, only a silent struggle. Wherever the golden light passed, the blanked-out Myriad Origins Same Origin Talisman gradually regained its colors, and the transparent talisman once again became brilliant. The blanked-out imprints of living beings began to condense, and the vanished beings reappeared. Though they were weak, they had ultimately preserved their existence.
The white figure of the Lord of the Void appeared within the radiance. It was a pure-white outline without any distinguishing features, like a blank sheet of paper without a single mark. "Existence is merely an accident of nothingness. Returning to zero is inevitable. Your resistance merely prolongs the accident."
The pure-white outline raised a hand and waved it. Countless white blank runes flew toward the Myriad Origins Guardian Talisman. Wherever the runes passed, gaps of blankness began to appear in the golden radiance of the Fire of Existence, and the guardian talisman's structure once again faced collapse. Xuan Fu knew that passive defense with the Fire of Existence could not last. He had to attack proactively, find the core of the Lord of the Void, and shatter its blank will.
"Lord of the Chaos Abyss, Primordial Lord, I'll attack the core of the Lord of the Void. Stabilize the Fire of Existence for me!" Without the slightest hesitation, Xuan Fu completely fused his Existence Imprint with the Myriad Realms Primordial Talisman, transforming into a Golden Streamer that flew toward the pure-white outline.
Wherever the streamer passed, the white blank runes were purified by the Fire of Existence. Xuan Fu's Spiritual Sense locked onto the core of the pure-white outline. It was a point of ultimate nothingness, devoid of any characteristics of existence, yet it was the source of the blank power. He urged all the Fire of Existence and condensed it into a Spear of Existence, stabbing it toward the core. "Existence is reasonable. Blankness cannot erase everything!"
At the instant the Spear of Existence collided with the ultimate nothingness, the pure-white outline trembled violently, and a crack appeared in the white blank radiance. Xuan Fu could sense that the core of the Lord of the Void was not absolute nothingness. Hidden within it was an extremely faint Existence Imprint. This was its only weakness—and the key to Myriad Origins' existence.
"Found it!" Xuan Fu rejoiced inwardly. Through the Spear of Existence, he injected the Existence Imprints of Myriad Origins into the core of the Lord of the Void. "You are originally a fusion of Existence and Void. Why insist on returning everything to zero?"
The pure-white outline of the Lord of the Void rippled, and the white radiance began to churn. "Existence... brings conflict, consumption, and destruction... Only returning to zero can bring eternity." Its voice was no longer cold, but carried a trace of confusion. Clearly, the Existence Imprint within its core had awakened and was clashing with its blank will.
The Primordial Lord and the Lord of the Chaos Abyss seized the opportunity and urged the power of the Myriad Origins Fire of Existence to its limit. The spread of the white blank radiance was completely halted and even began to slowly recede. The regions of Myriad Origins that had been blanked out gradually regained their meaning of existence, and the blanking of their origins also stopped.
Just as the will of the Lord of the Void was about to be persuaded by the Existence Imprint and the white radiance was about to vanish completely, the pure-white outline suddenly erupted with a strange black radiance. This radiance came neither from the Lord of the Void itself nor from any power of Myriad Origins. Instead, it came from the Dark Silence Domain beneath the Void Domain. It carried the ultimate rhythm of "dark silence, blankness, and eternal void," forcibly suppressing the Existence Imprint within the core.
"It's the power of the Lord of Dark Silence!" The Primordial Lord's expression changed drastically. "It is the dark side of the Lord of the Void, even more obsessed with returning everything to zero. The Lord of the Void has kept it suppressed in the Dark Silence Domain all this time!"
The black radiance and the white blank radiance fused together, forming a black-and-white interwoven Dark Silence Void Power. It was even more terrifying than the blank power before. It could not only blank out existence, but also plunge wills into dark silence, turning everything into eternal nothingness. The confusion of the Lord of the Void vanished, and the pure-white outline became even colder. "Dark silence is eternal. Existence will eventually return to zero."
The Dark Silence Void Power surged. The golden light of the Fire of Existence was rapidly plunged into dark silence and blanked out, while the Myriad Origins Guardian Talisman once again showed signs of collapse. Xuan Fu's Spear of Existence was struck by the Dark Silence Void Power and instantly turned into nothingness. He himself was also enveloped in black radiance. The Existence Imprint within the talisman's body began to fall into dark silence, and his Spiritual Sense went blank once again.
An ultimate crisis concerning the existence of Myriad Origins and eternal dark silence had quietly descended upon the Myriad Origins Core Region.
