Total Perception Ends

Boom!

The moment that Golden Finger Bone shattered into dust in Chen Lingxi's palm, the world fell into a sudden silence.

All things fell silent, the wind and clouds froze, and even the terrifying cloud tornado that was pressing down on him, carrying the Divine Hymn, seemed to be held still by some unique force.

The next instant, that terrifying aura suddenly erupted!

It contains immense power that shakes even the Void.

Immediately afterwards, a dazzling power, brimming with golden radiance, seemed to awaken, and like the sun breaking through the clouds, golden energy burst forth!

This golden radiance was too intense, too dazzling, and the power it contained was indescribable, yet it was so powerful that it covered an area of ten miles in radius!

Bai Lingze's various Divine Ability sound waves rapidly dissolved and disintegrated in the face of this golden light.

The tornado, constructed from Divine Hymn and dense Dao Origin, was completely suppressed and vanished without a trace by this golden light.

Bai Lingze's color changed.

The golden light surged and condensed wildly in the Void, and then, in an instant, transformed into a giant human face.

As soon as the face appeared, a brilliant golden light shone out, turning the surrounding clouds into a golden ocean!

The face was a hundred feet long, suspended in mid-air, like a majestic divine wall cast in pure gold.

His appearance was extremely heroic and imposing, with sword-like eyebrows reaching his temples, eyes like stars, and a resolute gaze, exuding a majestic aura that looked down upon the world and suppressed all ages!

This face is none other than Emperor Daye, Ying Xian!

No longer old and withered, but in the prime of his life, full of vigor and extraordinary spirit!

The playful and languid smile on Bai Lingze's face vanished without a trace the moment the giant human face appeared.

A look of solemnity and astonishment flashed in his eyes as he stared intently at the golden face suspended in Void. Two jade-colored lights flickered wildly deep within his pupils, trying to see through the face's illusion.

He clearly sensed an extremely terrifying threat on that face, one that even he had to confront.

Then, the golden face of the Emperor Daye slowly opened his slightly closed eyes.

Chen Lingxi also gazed into the distance at the face of Emperor Daye, looking into his eyes.

Then it became clear that there were no pupils or even whites in his eyes, only two burning, wildly spinning golden nebulae.

Within the nebula, there seemed to be an extremely mysterious spiritual energy, and it also seemed to be filled with an ancient aura.

Amazing!

Chen Lingxi a deep breath.

Emperor Daye's cultivation has improved again; he is probably not far from the mid- Dao Foundation Middle Stage.

At that moment, Emperor Daye's golden face did not look at the cloud tornado that had stalled and was slowly dissipating under the golden light attack.

Instead, take a deep breath and then exhale!

It's like a peerless immortal, blowing across the world!

A pure golden, almost transparent stream of air flew out of his mouth!

In an instant, dazzling golden light also burst forth from those numerous streams of air, filled with unimaginable power, transforming into some extremely wondrous technique that cleaved everything in the Void, seemingly containing terrifying power capable of severing mountains.

Where this airflow passes, everything shatters.

Even the mighty cloud tornado, imbued with the power of Bai Lingze's Dao Foundation Grand Divine Ability, vanished completely in an instant before this golden stream of energy.

The airflow was so light that the tornado, powerful enough to crush hills into dust, was extinguished in the blink of an eye, like smoke from a cooking fire scattered by a gust of wind!

The gale continued its relentless force, and the airflow containing a trace of the Emperor Daye's power swept across the surrounding Void, like a pure golden storm of destruction, rushing straight towards Bai Lingze above the clouds, covering the sky and the earth!

"This is Ying Xian!"

"This person... is incredibly powerful."

Bai Lingze frowned slightly, a deep sense of apprehension flashing in his eyes.

He dared not be negligent in the slightest. He brought his hands together in front of him, and with his fingers flying, he had already formed an extremely profound hand seal.

The Divine Hymn that had been scattered by the golden light around him now resounded once more, even more soaring and passionate than before!

Countless golden sound waves emerged from the Void, densely gathering in front of him, transforming into an extremely thick barrier of spiritual energy filled with many extraordinary and wondrous elements.

That Spiritual Qi barrier also contained a hidden aura of killing intent!

At the same time, Emperor Daye Daye's golden aura surged forth, but instead of directly impacting Bai Lingze, it suddenly spread out, transforming into extremely fine golden threads that, with lightning speed, enveloped, entangled, and sealed Bai Lingze along with his massive spiritual energy barrier!

In the blink of an eye, it transformed into a massive array of golden light, designed to trap enemies!

The great formation was like a golden cage, trapping Bai Lingze, a Dao Foundation Realm cultivator, inside.

Above the cage, countless golden runes flowed endlessly, radiating a terrifying restrictive power!

"Hmm? You've actually mastered such Divine Ability!"

Bai Lingze, inside the cage, let out a muffled groan.

Immediately afterwards, a deafening roar erupted continuously from the cage.

The cage trembled violently, and countless golden runes flickered under the terrifying impact, clearly indicating that Bai Lingze was using astonishing techniques within, attempting to break free of the formation.

"Escape!"

Chen Lingxi had no time to appreciate this earth-shattering duel, nor did he dare to gamble on how long the Emperor Daye's finger bone could trap Bai Lingze.

Almost at the same instant that the golden aura extinguished the tornado, he activated the Longevity Bridge.

The spirit bridge that spanned the sky suddenly materialized beneath his feet, carrying his figure and transforming him into a pale golden streak of light, hurtling towards the mountain peak that had been partially destroyed by the Xi Lingqiao.

Amidst the ruins of the mountainside, Xi Lingqiao had been awakened by this earth-shattering power and was struggling to stand up.

He was severely injured by Chen Lingxi's Great Sage's Fist, and at this moment, the spiritual energy within his transformed body was in extreme disorder, resulting in extremely serious injuries.

But right at this moment...

Chen Lingxi appeared before him like a ghost, extending his right hand. As the dense spiritual energy in his Qi Sea surged, a terrifying suction force erupted from his palm—the very Qi Circulation Realm of Mystery Mechanism [Qi-Sea Vortex]!

Xi Lingqiao was currently weakened and had no strength left to resist.

He felt a sudden tightness all over his body, as if an invisible giant hand had gripped his throat, and he was involuntarily lifted up by Chen Lingxi.

Chen Lingxi grabbed Xi Lingqiao by the back of the neck, and the Azure Qi Sea Azure Edge Method suddenly erupted, piercing into Xi Lingqiao's dantian like an inverted sword.

At this very moment, with just a thought from Chen Lingxi, the Azure Edge Method would descend, and Xi Lingqiao's avatar would vanish completely in an instant.

After taking the Xi Lingqiao, Chen Lingxi turned around without hesitation, and the Longevity Bridge beneath his feet once again erupted with intense spiritual light.

He transformed into a dazzling pale golden rainbow, fleeing madly in the opposite direction from Bai Lingze at the fastest speed he had ever traveled.

A rainbow streaked across the sky, as fast as a shooting star shooting upwards against the current.

"Emperor Daye is indeed extremely powerful... Moreover, this Golden Finger Bone does indeed contain magical techniques, just as Emperor Daye said."

"Emperor Daye, this time you haven't deceived me."

As Chen Lingxi sped along, he gained a completely new understanding of the unfathomable strength of the Emperor Daye.

Chen Lingxi fled far away without daring to stop for even a moment.

The wind howled wildly in my ears, and the mountains, rivers, plains, and cities beneath my feet all turned into blurry shadows, rushing backward at high speed.

He flew for a full ten hours, covering a distance of countless miles.

He only slowed down when most of the spiritual energy in his Qi Sea had been depleted by this continuous, extreme exertion, and when he was certain that there were no more pursuing auras behind him.

The land beneath our feet has transformed from towering mountains into a boundless ocean.

Dusk had fallen.

Above the sky, there was neither sun nor moon, only a deep, almost inky black canopy.

Above the sky, the stars had not yet risen, and only a wisp of dark golden light remained on the horizon, about to be completely swallowed by darkness.

The sea, bathed in the last rays of the setting sun, shimmered with ripples, vast and boundless.

Chen Lingxi searched for an unnamed, desolate reef and descended from the clouds.

He casually tossed the pale and dying Xi Lingqiao onto the rocks.

Xi Lingqiao sat cross-legged on the bridge stone, looking up at Chen Lingxi with a hint of murderous intent in his eyes.

Chen Lingxi stood on the beach, watching the rolling waves, and then her gaze fell on this person.

"I know you're not Qi Ingestion," Chen Lingxi said, squinting. "Dao Foundation Realm cultivator. You came to this Qi-Less Grotto-Heaven as a projection and obtained the cultivation of a Qi Circulation Realm, yet you were defeated by me, a native Qi Circulation Realm cultivator. I imagine you're extremely Qi Ingestion."

Xi Lingqiao stared directly at Chen Lingxi, shook his head and said, "I originally wanted to kill you with my own hands to avenge my good-for-nothing brother."

But I never expected... you are indeed quite extraordinary. It's not unjust that my avatar was defeated by you."

He paused slightly, then turned to look at the sea. "But to be precise, you are nothing more than a drop of seawater in this vast ocean."

Soon this ocean will completely disappear, so why should I be saddened?

It's just a pity I can't kill you with my own hands."

A slight smile appeared on Chen Lingxi as she turned to look at Xi Lingqiao: "You should have some kind of array-forming item on you?"

Upon hearing this, Xi Lingqiao raised an eyebrow slightly.

Chen Lingxi smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist, perhaps one day, when I leave this Cave Heaven and go to the Great Xuanzhuo Realm, we will meet again."

Xi Lingqiao has not yet answered.

The cyan sword blade that Chen Lingxi had placed in his Qi Sea then fell down.

In an instant, a radiant light burst forth from Xi Lingqiao's body.

Xi Lingqiao's pupils contracted, and his body began to dissipate, leaving his clothes and Hongdong Bag behind in the Void.

Chen Lingxi took the Hongdong Bag, which indeed contained many items for setting up formations.

Chen Lingxi held each of the array-setting items in his hand until, after a long while, he took out a small jade talisman.

A faint yet extremely mysterious aura remained on the jade talisman.

"As expected, the array-setting tools in the hands of the Xi Family disciples, like those in the Dao-Below Academy, were re-refined by the Dao Foundation Realm cultivators who fell into this place, in order to achieve a faster array-setting speed."

Chen Lingxi squinted, probing with her Divine Sense, carefully drawing and separating that faint yet extraordinary aura, finally transferring it into the ancient Three-Mystery Mirror.

On the surface of the Three-Mystery Mirror, the second of the three points of Mystic Light suddenly flashed after absorbing this wisp of energy, as if it had locked onto an extremely distant and terrifying target.

Just then, he suddenly felt something, abruptly raised his head, and looked into the distance!

He saw the horizon where the sea met the sky in the far distance, and beneath the clouds dyed a dark gold by the afterglow of the setting sun, a person suddenly emerged.

The man walked out from the setting sun that was about to sink into the sea, his steps unhurried, as if he were strolling in his own backyard.

However, with each step he took, the entire ocean seemed to tremble slightly.

On the sea, the waves that were originally just gently undulating suddenly turned into towering waves the moment he appeared, crashing in as if to completely submerge the island reef.

An indescribable, overwhelming, and terrifying aura surged forth as the figure approached.

That aura was more magnificent, more domineering, and more despair-inducing than anyone Chen Lingxi had ever seen.

It was as if a true immortal had descended from the celestial court to the mortal realm!

The last rays of the setting sun outlined his extremely powerful silhouette, but his face remained obscured.

All that could be seen were his eyes, which shone like two burning stars in the dim twilight.

That gaze pierced through the vast distance, through layers of twilight, and landed on this small, desolate reef, landing on Chen Lingxi.

Chen Lingxi couldn't help but take a deep breath.

Almost the instant the person appeared, he had already guessed who it was.

"Zhao Duanxuan!"

Such a majestic aura, powerful enough to suppress an entire realm, such terrifying pressure that leaves no room for resistance—in this Weiji Grotto-Heaven, who else could it be but Zhao Duanxuan of the Quexing Xi Family, who reigns supreme on the Immortal Ranking?

"This person knew I had taken the Xi Lingqiao, so he specifically came after me to demand it back..."

Chen Lingxi squinted, watching the figure.

Faced with such absolute power, any scheme or trickery becomes meaningless.

He had no doubt that if Zhao Duanxuan got close, he might not even be able to commit suicide.

"It seems that this time, Total Perception has reached its end."

"Alright."

Chen Lingxi felt at peace.

He had already obtained enough information within this Total Perception Divine Chamber.

This time, the Total Perception has yielded a truly substantial harvest.

Chen Lingxi did not hesitate at all.

Almost at the same instant that Zhao Duanxuan's gaze fell upon him, Chen Lingxi activated the Thunder-Wielding Heavenly King Sword!

A dazzling, sharp, pale golden Thunderclap Sword Light erupted from his body.

However, this sword light was not aimed at Zhao Duanxuan, who was walking towards him like Gods and Devils.

The sword light circled above his head once, then changed direction and pierced straight into Chen Lingxi's forehead.

Laugh!

It was just a very soft and faint sound!

Above the sky, the two bright mirrors that only he could see, one a blazing gold like the sun, the other a silvery white like the moon, suddenly burst forth with dazzling light at this moment.

The light pierced through the sky and the sea of clouds, shining directly upon his shattered avatar.

A smile appeared on Chen Lingxi's lips.

He raised his head and, with his last glimmer of light, looked at Zhao Duanxuan, who had approached him and was now frowning, looking down at his crumbling avatar with a hint of surprise.

Then, the whole world shattered before his eyes.

The Total Perception Divine Chamber has now come to an end.
