Bone of Halted Reading, Lid of the Final Coffin

The heavens and earth did not tremble, but were instantly flattened.

All vibrations, sounds, light, and breath were preemptively eliminated by five different directions of "the logic of Annihilation" before the eruption could occur.

The entire domain becomes five overlapping layers of different rules:

The "Time Reversal Layer" of the Reverse Entropy Silent Wheel and the "Memory Revocation Layer" of the Nameless Stele

The "overlapping layers of positive and negative" of the Returning to Stillness Mirror Sea, the "chaotic embryonic origin layer" of the Embryo Forbidden Locks, and the "possibility obliteration layer" of the Sound of No Life.

The five worlds overlapped, and the entire area was as if it had been scribbled on simultaneously by five annihilation paintbrushes of different colors, colliding, tearing, and devouring each other.

Time is burning backwards--names are being withdrawn line by line--someone's reflection keeps appearing and disappearing in the mirror sea.

--Radiant light erupted from the earth's core, transforming into black waterfalls-- The Sound of No Life, like wrinkles, kneaded together all possibilities of existence.

This is not a battlefield. This is a purgatory where five "ways to die" vie for dominance.

At this moment, the Silent Nothingness Divine Hall revealed for the first time the true terror of the "First Divine Hall".

Ninety thousand Void Stillness Walkers simultaneously raised their heads.

Their movements were synchronized, their frequency was synchronized, even the Does Not Exist of their breathing was synchronized.

Wu Jixuan raised his right arm. That arm flickered between reality and emptiness, as if the universe were re-determining whether he should exist at any given moment.

He slowly lowered his palm. -- At the same time, the souls of all the Void Stillness Walkers lit up with a ghostly blue light.

That blue light does not belong to energy, nor to the soul, nor to the Great Dao.

It belongs to the "Reflection Interface of the Invisible Sea". Instantly, the pressure of the five major mechanisms was divided into ninety thousand parts.

The Reverse Entropy Silent Wheel of time was reversed by the Ninety Thousand Soul Mirrors;

The power of the Nameless Stele to extract names was absorbed in reverse by the ninety thousand Nameless empty shells;

The overlapping images of the Returning to Stillness Mirror Sea were deceived by ninety thousand "unobservable faces";

The primordial light of the Chaos Embryo Forbidden Locks was reflected back to itself by the ninety thousand fragments of the Void Sea;

The possibility of Sound of No Life is erased, dispersed in the opposite direction by ninety thousand Does Not Exist lifelines.

Within a ten-mile radius, the world was transformed into five layers of annihilation, making it completely uninhabitable.

They were forcibly pushed back to the "minimum allowable" ordinary Deep Root Lower Layers.

"... The five mechanisms work in parallel, reaching a state of ultimate restraint." Wu Jixuan spoke calmly.

His voice was swallowed by the Sound of No Life, but the Void Stillness Walkers still heard it.

Before the words were even finished, the Reverse Entropy Silent Wheel launched its first counterattack, reversing the giant wheel's trajectory by an inch.

The world's "past" has been pushed back an inch.

The shadow of a Void Stillness Walkers was extracted, and his "past version" wanted to return to his body.

Once merged, the two become contradictory and instantly annihilate each other.

With Wu Jixuan sent the Silent Realm Shattered Mirror crashing down!

A "shattered mirror No Definition" appeared in the void. The mirror did not reflect anything; it simply pulled away the past of the Void Stillness Walkers and pushed it into the mirror to break apart.

The past was sealed off. The future was fixed. He was able to survive.

The next instant, the Nameless Stele activated its countermeasure.

Although the surface of the monument is blank, it seems to have absorbed Wu Jixuan's "name".

That was a power that even those in the Silent Mystery Realm would fear.

A symbol lit up in Wu Jixuan's palm.

It's not text. It's not a pattern. It's not a talisman. It's -- Counter-Naming Talisman.

He pressed this "incomprehensible" symbol onto the surface of the monument.

The inscription identifies this symbol as "the name of a higher sequence" --

The stele trembled violently, and its patterns cracked three inches.

The Nameless Stele has been retired for the second time.

Before the echo had faded, the entire mirror layer of the Returning to Stillness Mirror Sea suddenly descended.

Tens of thousands of Void Stillness Walkers simultaneously created tens of thousands of reflections.

Each reflection is their "absolute negation".

As long as it gets close--

No matter who it is, everything will be reduced to zero.

Tens of thousands of Void Stillness Walkers raised their hands simultaneously.

They twisted their souls into an "unreflectable state".

--The mirror cannot reflect their images.

--The reflection cannot lock onto the original body.

--The Mirror Sea began to feel confused, began to distort, and began to disintegrate.

Boom--!

The vast Mirror Sea shattered into countless fragments.

The shards of glass don't fall to the ground; they disappear.

Because the concept of "fragments reflected by a mirror" no longer exists.

But before they could even catch their breath,

Ninety-nine Chaos Embryo Forbidden Locks descended from the sky!

Wherever the light of the fetal embryo shines, everything turns into a liquefied, chaotic primordial liquid.

The Void Stillness Walkers' feet began to soften, and their bodies were twisted into chaotic spheres.

Wu Jixuan raised his hand. The blue light was forcefully compressed into a line from his palm.

The Chaotic Embryo Light was forced to split, changing from ninety-nine strands to two!

"Open--the-sky-divided!"

He used the unique "Beginningless Division" of the Silent Nothingness Divine Hall.

It forcefully splits the light of the tire into two opposing poles, yin and yang.

The power of the Embryo Forbidden Locks was forced to flow backward. The Chaos Embryo Forbidden Locks was frozen for three breaths.

All the Void Stillness Walkers grasped these three breaths, redefining themselves from the primordial chaos:

--Feet are feet--Hands are hands--Identity is identity

They resisted pregnancy through their own "logic".

Tens of thousands of Void Stillness Walkers have emerged from the "primordial chaos before the creation of heaven and earth".

The world has been rewritten. But at this moment—

The Fifth Mechanism, the Sound of No Life, reached its strongest frequency.

Suddenly, the world seemed as thin as paper, as if its edges were being gently pinched by an invisible, enormous finger, ready to be torn away.

The existence of all Void Stillness Walkers began to be cut open by the "possibility scissors".

The Sound of No Life shredded the lifelines of tens of thousands of people into countless fragments.

Regardless of strength, talent, or level of attainment.

They all started to disappear.

It wasn't death. It wasn't annihilation. It wasn't stillness. It was "impossible to exist." Wu Jixuan suddenly looked up.

For the first time, a true sense of dread appeared in his eyes.

"The Silent Nothingness Divine Hall— " "—The highest form." He clasped his hands together.

The soul is like the solidified deep sea. The void is like an ancient monument cracking open.

The sea of Annihilation light swirled in his palm, containing the souls of tens of thousands of Void Stillness Walkers.

He took over everything by himself. A blue crack appeared in the sky and earth, as if tearing open a door to the narrative layer.

Wu Jixuan whispered, "Silent Void Reversal Law." The next instant, the power of the five mechanisms was simultaneously "reverse-executed."

The time of the Reverse Entropy Silent Wheel is reversed and rewritten.

The name removed from the Nameless Stele was put back in its original place.

The overlapping images of the Returning to Stillness Mirror Sea are sent back to the bottom of the mirror.

The transformation of the Chaos Embryo Forbidden Locks was forcibly separated.

The possibility of Sound of No Life is eliminated, and in turn, a "minimum level of existence" is imposed.

The entire region was like five annihilation storms being pressed into the deepest part of the world.

All five mechanisms simultaneously went out. The world regained its color. The air regained its weight.

Existence was reaffirmed. Tens of thousands of Void Stillness Walkers all found their footing.

Absolutely no loss. The Silent Nothingness Divine Hall —with the true foundation of the First Divine Hall,

He forcefully crushed the five ultimate forbidden mechanisms. Wu Jixuan slightly raised his head. At the center of his brow, a bluish-green life mark trembled slightly.

The aftershocks of the Silent Nothingness Divine Hall's annihilation of the five major institutions had just subsided.

Before the light of heaven and earth could recombine, the vast, dark void at the Deep Root Lower Layers was suddenly torn apart by two completely different phenomena.

It's not light. It's not shadow.

Rather, it is a crack where "the concept itself is torn apart".

Suspended within the crack were two eerie objects that would instantly chill any mind.

They didn't "get close," but they forcibly dragged everyone's "attention" towards them.

The void trembled slightly. A bone needle, so thin it was invisible, slowly drifted out from the depths of the crack.

It's not transparent; it's that "the concept of transparency Does Not Exist."

The edge of the needle seems to be constantly being "described" by the world.

However, each description is automatically erased by it.

Only a blank space remains, "Unable to describe its outline further."

The hearts of all tens of thousands of disciples in the Silent Nothingness Divine Hall tightened simultaneously.

Because as soon as they think in their hearts, "It is--"

Before the word "--" could even take shape, my thoughts were instantly abruptly cut off, as if someone had used an invisible force to crush the thought in my mind.

Wu Jixuan reached out. The bone needle landed silently in his palm.

The weight of the bone needles was not felt in his palm.

There was not even any tactile sensation; instead, a "blank space" appeared, making it impossible to continue thinking.

A Void Stillness Walkers dared to look even a moment longer. His pupils suddenly shrank to the size of pinpoints.

The next second—his memory of that moment completely went blank.

I don't even know what I've "forgotten." Silence. Stillness. Coldness.

Wu Jixuan said in a low voice, "... Bone of Halted Reading."

As soon as the words were spoken, everyone simultaneously lost the ability to continue imagining the "Bone of Halted Reading".

They couldn't even recall which four words Wu Jixuan had just said. It was as if that sentence had been ripped from the world.

The heavens and earth were torn apart once more. This time, it was as if an enormous, invisible coffin had descended from the sky.

However, no coffin body was visible at the Deep Root Lower Layers; only a coffin lid was found.

Black. Extremely black. So black that it even absorbs the very definition of the color "black".

The edges of the coffin lid were engraved with countless "divine inscriptions that were revoked by history".

Those divine runes seemed to have existed before, but were later deemed "unpreservable" by the universe and forcibly erased, leaving only incomplete and missing strokes.

The moment the coffin lid fell—a chilling sense of "no way back" enveloped the entire area.

It's as if the future of all life is ending at this very moment.

Wu Jixuan raised his hand to catch it. The coffin lid did not touch his hand; instead, it turned his palm into "a void where the last possibility was sealed off."

The entire river of cause and effect Deep Root Lower Layers, stood still for a moment.

It's not a freeze, but rather—"the very reason to continue flowing has been lost."

Hundreds of Void Stillness Walkers gasped simultaneously.

An elder murmured in disbelief, "... That's... the Lid of the Final Coffin..."

The instant he uttered the words "final coffin," his voice vanished.

My throat felt like the world had "covered up my right to say the last word" in that instant.

Because the Lid of the Final Coffin will seal off all possible escape routes with a glimmer of hope.

Reincarnation? Severed. Resurrection? Severed. Reversal of cause and effect? Severed. Favored by destiny? Severed.

Wu Jixuan put the coffin lid into his palm.

The emptiness in his palm seemed to never open again.

He exhaled softly, "This is an opportunity Deep Root Lower Layers; a treasure of this caliber could make my temple grow a hundred times stronger again..."

When he said those words, the air seemed to be forcibly restored to its original state.

Only then do the flow of time and possibilities resume throughout the entire region.

The reactions of the people in the temple Void Stillness Walkers instinctively took a half-step back.

It wasn't fear, but rather—the level of these treasures had exceeded the narrative weight they could imagine.

An elder whispered, "... Deacon... these two treasures... are no longer things we can use at will, are they?"

Wu Jixuan's gaze was calm. "The fact that Deep Root Lower Layers have been provided means that they must have a purpose."

His gaze fell upon the deeper chasm of nothingness.

There was no light, no sound, no breath there.

But it's like "an unwritten ending" that's constantly approaching.

Wu Jixuan slightly raised his head, seemingly looking through all the mechanisms into the deeper darkness. "... This place... is about to change."

"Let's continue." The entire Silent Nothingness Divine Hall team silently stepped into the depths of the rift.

The five major institutions had just been destroyed when a new sense of danger began to stir slowly in the distance.
