What horrified and enraged it even more was that the invisible fluctuation of its Primordial Heart directly shook its seemingly vast and incomparable core of will, which was actually composed of billions of fragile spiritual beings, causing it to feel a tearing pain and fear that originated from its very foundation!

Taking advantage of the situation, Li Qingshan channeled the seven seals into one, transforming them into a single, extremely simple yet powerful fist technique.

This punch seemed to gather all the accumulation of his eleven years of arduous cultivation, tribulation-crossing to sainthood, enlightenment and scripture creation, and merged with the Yuanshi true meaning. With the determination to break through all obstacles and transcend all constraints, it slammed into the center of the Primordial God's giant palm!

"Break!"

The fist exploded with power! It was the light of the primordial chaos, the roar of the beginning of all things!

Rumble rumble rumble!!!

The giant hand of Primordial God Impact, formed from the will of the planet and its vast energy, began to shatter and annihilate inch by inch, starting from the palm of its hand!

The collapse spread upwards along the arm, which was as thick as a mountain range of stars, and the arm shattered section by section, turning into primordial energy turbulence and fragments of laws that swept across the starry sky.

Primordial God's massive body staggered backward.

For the first time, its green eyes revealed disbelief, horror, and a hint of fear.

It couldn't understand how a human who had just entered the Saint Realm Fifth Heaven could unleash such terrifying power, enough to severely injure it, a Saint King Ninth Heaven!

Li Qingshan is relentless in his pursuit of power; once his offensive is broken and his will shakes, that will be the decisive moment.

His figure moved like lightning, rushing upwards along the collapsed arm of the Primordial God, heading straight for its head! Golden blood energy and holy energy intertwined around him, transforming into a battle suit that tore through the remaining green energy storms along the way.

Primordial God Impact roared, clenching its other intact arm into a fist and slamming it down. At the same time, it opened its head and spewed out a torrent of destructive energy, condensed to the extreme and dark green in color. It was a breath that combined the planet's original toxicity and the law of devouring. Wherever it passed, space was corroded into pitch-black voids.

Li Qingshan remained unfazed. Above his head was the apricot-yellow Central Wuji Apricot-Yellow Flag, from which countless strands of Xuanhuang Mother Qi descended, protecting his entire body completely and making him impervious to all attacks.

He gripped the Pangu Banner in his right hand, exhaled at the oncoming giant fist and dark green breath, and slashed out with the banner!

The banner's shadow swept past, and the Xuanhuang sword energy stretched for thirty thousand miles!

Primordial God's giant fist was cleaved in two, its dark green breath split in two, and the remaining force of the sword energy slammed into Primordial God's chest, which was made of ancient wood and mountain rocks!

laugh!

A massive, deep crack, revealing bone, appeared on Primordial God's chest, from which green light cascaded down like a waterfall.

Primordial God let out an extremely mournful wail, its massive body's light dimmed rapidly, and large swaths of grass, trees, and rocks that made up its body fell off and vanished.

Li Qingshan stood in mid-air, looking at the Primordial God avatar whose aura had plummeted and whose body was beginning to become unstable, and coldly said, " Saint King Ninth Heaven forcibly constructed by gathering billions of weak spiritual elements, possessing only an energy level, but lacking a matching Dao heart and will. Today, I will sever your body and spirit, granting you annihilation!"

Having said that, he pointed his fingers like a sword at the already collapsing head of the Primordial God, and pointed at it from a distance.

A chaotic sword light, refined to its extreme and incorporating the true meaning of Heaven-Opening and the power to shake the Primordial Heart Seal, shot out and instantly entered the Primordial God's brow.

Primordial God's final roar abruptly ceased, its massive body suddenly stiffened, and then began to disintegrate from its head.

The terrifying shell, composed of countless vines, ancient trees, and rocks, first lost all its vibrant luster, as if it had undergone billions of years of wind erosion in an instant. Its surface was quickly covered with deep, spiderweb-like cracks, and then, with a muffled cracking sound, it shattered into dozens of planet-sized pieces that orbited the Primordial God Star, like satellites guarding it.

The disintegration spread along its neck and torso. Its once colossal body, which had stirred the stars, was now like an empty shell stripped of all life and spirit, beginning to break apart in a violent structural imbalance.

Most of the matter that makes up the body turns into rocks and rotten wood after separating from the main body, burning the last green embers, turning into a meteor shower that covers half the planet, crashing into the oceans and continents, stirring up towering dust and giant waves.

However, one section of the thickest, core part of the trunk, about the size of a continent, was not completely destroyed even after it had completely lost its vitality.

Its entire body is a dull, grayish-green color, like that of inferior jade. Its surface is covered with huge, crisscrossing cracks, and inside there are faint, lingering dark green halos that flicker weakly like a dying pulse before finally stopping.

This piece of debris did not fall. Instead, under the complex influence of the planet's gravity and the residual energy field, it mysteriously floated at the edge of the outer space of the Primordial God Star, like a silent, upside-down gray Colossus, or the remains of a giant nailed to the starry sky, becoming a shocking and Eternal scar.

On the planet's surface, the once boiling, sea-like collective consciousness field is now completely frozen, utterly silent.

In the starry sky, the turbulent energy currents have not yet completely subsided, and dust clouds are slowly dissipating.

Li Qingshan stood alone amidst this scene of devastation. In the distance were the soulless remains of two elven saints, floating silently. Further still was the old tree spirit Mu Kui, barely clinging to life, huddled on a shattered meteorite.

Li Qingshan slowly calmed his surging blood and qi, and all the strange phenomena disappeared into his body, returning to his calm appearance.

His gaze swept over the green star below, then glanced at Mu Kui's heavily injured and dying old figure, but he did not make another move.

The old tree spirit did indeed intend to settle things peacefully, but he was powerless to do so.

Without pausing, his figure faded instantly, as if merging into starlight. In the next moment, he completely disappeared from the starry sky that still bore traces of battle and lingering fear, continuing his long journey home.

Only the enormous wreckage suspended at the edge of the star, the remains of two saints, and the spatial folds and turbulent currents of law in the star space that have not yet calmed down, silently tell of what a terrifying being once passed through this place, and left behind a scar that even the Ancient Life Star must remember forever with an unparalleled demeanor.

After the stellar transformation of the Ancient Life Star "Celestial Meteor Fall" that Li Qingshan inadvertently passed by, a "gray hanging moon" and a meteorite belt were forever added to the sky above the Primordial God Star.

That was not the real moon, but a colossal, decaying object resembling the remains of a giant.

It is Eternal suspended on the outer edge of the planet's synchronous orbit, solidified in the starry sky in a way that defies common sense. The crisscrossing cracks on its surface refract a dim, unsettling dark green light at certain angles of starlight, like the corpse of a god or demon nailed to the river of time by an invisible force.

Later scholars of the ancient history of the Elven race and the Ancient Tree race referred to it as the " Heaven-Suspended Colossus " or the " Fallen God's Remains ".

Regarding its origin, the oldest existing inscription on the Primordial God Star, dating back approximately three thousand standard planetary years after the stellar transformation, the " Ancestral Wood Spirit Stele," contains a cryptic account. "An heretical demon god came from the Other Shore of the star sea, its form resembling an elf, its breath like an abyss, its eyes containing chaotic light. The leader of the Ancestral Tree Palace, the Saint of Mu Ling, was the first to lead the divine battle, angering the demon god. In an instant, his body turned to ashes, and his Saint Realm was scattered. Subsequently, the Saint of Mu Kui, along with the two Saint Venerables of the Elf Feng Ling, Qing Luo Feather and Green Vine, were summoned by the will of the Mother Goddess to attack it together. However, the demon god's power reached the heavens, and the Seven Seals rotated, possessing the great power to create Heaven-Opening and earth and overturn the universe. The two Saint Venerables, Feng Ling and Qing Luo, perished, their remains forever imprisoned outside the star; the Great Saint of Mu Kui was severely injured and on the verge of extinction, his Dao foundation almost destroyed."

" The Mother Goddess, enraged, revealed her primordial true form," gathering the thoughts of countless stars and beings to transform into a colossal giant supporting the heavens. Its might was overwhelming, almost swallowing stars. The Demon God, undaunted, drew his sword to meet it. The fierce battle shook the very core of the cosmos. Finally, the Demon God pierced the true form's brow with a single finger. The Mother Goddess wailed, her true form crumbled, its remains hanging eternally in the sky, its divinity lost, its will slumbering forever."

"The Demon God stood alone in the starry sea, regarding the wreckage as mere dust. He glanced at the heavily wounded Mu Kui but did not strike again. His shadow vanished in an instant, leaving no trace. On that day, the Mother Goddess's will completely subsided, the ancestral land's spiritual light disappeared, and all trees grieved. In this battle, three saints perished, their true forms were destroyed, the Star Pivot was injured, and their vital energy was greatly depleted. Thus, the ' Law of External Severance ' was established, sealing the stars and locking the domain, strictly forbidding the people from exploring beyond the heavens."

Later interpretations of this period of history are shrouded in controversy and mystery.

The mainstream view holds that the "heretical demon god" was likely a powerful figure who happened to be passing by, whose cultivation had reached at least the terrifying level of Heavenly King or even Great Saint.

The existence of the " Heaven-Suspended Colossus " has become an unhealable spiritual and physical scar on the Primordial God Star civilization.

It serves as a constant reminder to future generations of the vastness and peril of the universe, and the terrible consequences of greed that transcends one's own level.

Throughout the ages, there have always been exceptionally talented individuals or ambitious individuals who have tried to approach or even study the " Heaven-Suspended Colossus," hoping to obtain the power and secrets of the true forms of ancient demon gods or Primordial God.

However, all who approached suffered minor damage to their souls and a decline in their cultivation, or were completely devoured by the still chaotic laws of destruction and the remnants of dormant will surrounding the remains, turning into stardust.

Over time, the area surrounding the " Heaven-Suspended Colossus " became an absolute forbidden zone that everyone on Primordial God Star Impact feared. Only on certain ancient sacrificial days would the temples of the two races jointly hold a remote, symbolic appeasement ceremony.

That period of stellar history, along with the silent existence of the " Heaven-Suspended Colossus," together constitute the most somber and mysterious page in the deepest memory of the Primordial God Star civilization.

It is like a cold scale, measuring the insignificance of civilization on a cosmic scale, and silently telling of what unimaginable beings existed in those untraceable ancient times, leaving an Eternal mark on this place with an irresistible force.

That mark still stands high in the starry sky, coldly gazing down at the green planet below, like an endless warning, or perhaps an ancient mystery awaiting an answer.

The truth of history is often lost to time and the narratives of the victors.

Only the cold starry sky Eternal records that fleeting moment of truth: a traveler eager to return home casually crushes a hostile insect that lunges at him, and then continues his journey without looking back.

Li Qingshan's journey continues amidst boundless darkness and scattered glimmers of light.

Loneliness is the norm, but this loneliness now holds strength and insight.

The road ahead is unknown, but my heart is set on returning home.

He was merely an incredibly powerful yet self-assured traveler in this vast sea of stars, measuring the desolation while also chasing after the azure starlight of his homeland.
