Limitless Already Nothing · Gate of the End

The 589th floor is no longer considered a "floor".

It was a remnant of Void Obliteration Domain by three Profound Mystic Void Realm.

Light, sound, causality, and time were all crushed into dust, leaving only the echoes of extinction trembling in the collapsing dimensions.

Right here in this airspace on the verge of its end—

The three Xuan Mystic Void Realm simultaneously raised their attack to its highest point.

Qin Yu and Jin Hanyan were both critically injured and on the verge of death, but Extinguished Light still stood in front of them.

She raised her hand. Without warning, without light, without announcement.

The colors of heaven and earth were completely extinguished in her palm.

The Fifth Form of the Extinguished Light Annihilation Light Dimension Severance: [Xuanji Return to Origin - The Lightless Final Wheel]

The Stillness Light Wheel slowly rose.

It's not that it "appeared," but rather that a page of the world was shed, revealing the Final Light Wheel behind it.

For the first time, all three Xuan Mystic Void Realm paused simultaneously.

They have no eyes, yet they seem to have been forced to "see" a result:

No matter who you are, you will eventually turn into Nameless dust under the Extinguished Light.

The colossal wheel of shimmering light began to spin with a deafening roar.

Heaven and earth collapsed into gray streaks, time and space were stripped bare, and the three beings of the Profound Mystic Void Realm were compressed into thin Annihilation fragments.

The Black Abyss Realm Devouring One's chest Realm Devouring black hole was forcibly shattered, and its ash body broke into cracked fragments;

The Burning Vortex behind the Flame Crown World Render seemed to have its concept of "fire" erased, collapsing instantly;

The enormous, faceless shadow of the Soul-Bound Final Fallen One seemed to be ripped away from the world, fading layer by layer.

The entire Deep Root Realm was shaken into a white, rubble-covered mark by the crushing weight of the Silent Light Wheel.

However, the Mystic Void Realm... is not so easily Annihilation.

Just as the Stillness Light Wheel pressed down to the edge of the "definition of existence" of the three Xuan Mystic Void Realm...

The three figures simultaneously unleashed an incomprehensible roar.

That wasn't a roar. It was an instinctive resistance to being written about by the light of the end.

Three "reverse annihilation rifts" split open from the edge of the Stillness Light Wheel.

Two black, bloody gashes instantly exploded from Extinguished Light's shoulder blade.

The backlash from the Mystic Void Realm was so severe that even the Ultimate Light Body could hardly withstand it.

She took a half-step back for the first time.

Just as the Stillness Light Wheel was abruptly halted by the three Xuan Mystic Void Realm—

The Reverse River Lamp on Qin Yu's Chest - Extinction

The first time it lit up on its own. Death Method Zeroing. Third awakening.

Reverse River Lamp - Extinguished - Self-Lighting**

There was no fire. There was no light. There was no sound.

The moment the lights came on, it was as if all dimensions of the universe had been emptied.

The nine Realm Devouring of the Black Abyss Realm Devouring One instantly lost their meaning of "devouring" and all went out into nothingness.

The Flame of the Flame Crown World Render is reversed and written as "the moment before it burned," and its lifeline begins to decline in reverse.

The faceless, shadowy skin of the Soul-Bound Final Fallen One was cleaved in two by the method of death.

It revealed a patch of "blank flesh that has not yet been allowed to appear in the world."

Qin Yu raised his hand. He neither used a sword, nor a hand seal, nor a spell.

It's just the "Awakening Death Method" that extinguishes the Reverse River Lamp.

--An attack that truly took over his position.

Heaven and earth descended in their final breath before death.

For the first time, the three Xuan Mystic Void Realm experienced "death."

The Black Abyss Realm Devouring One's chest cavity collapsed and turned to ashes;

A deep red line of destruction appeared on the head of the Flame Crown World Render;

A white, ominous pattern appeared on the body of the Soul-Bound Final Fallen One.

Extinguished Light whispered, "... This is a death that even gods would fear."

However, Mystic Void Realm will not sit idly by and wait for his doom.

The three Xuan Mystic Void Realm simultaneously unleashed "Counter-Finality Realm".

The entire 589 floors were sealed off as a killing cage.

They blocked Qin Yu, Jin Hanyan, and Extinguished Light's escape route.

Just as the counterattack wave from the three Profound Mystic Void Realm experts swept towards them—

Jin Hanyan raised her hand and opened the Nameless Box.

The small bronze box made a soft clatter. There was no light, no sound.

All existence in the universe was pulled back to the chaotic pre-dawn state "before it had a name".

The Mystic Void Realm's counterattack faltered for a moment before her. This—

This was the only chance of survival that Jin Hanyan had secured for the three of them.

Her breath had completely stopped, her white clothes were stained with blood, and clear, colorless tears of blood welled up in the corners of her eyes. "Go--!"

The chaos within the Nameless Box tore open the Realm Lock of the three Xuan Mystic Void Realm.

Three Xuan Mystic Void Realm can simultaneously teleport in reverse.

The three not only failed to escape,

Instead, they were forcibly pulled into another fault line:

The three were dragged into -- "The Final Void Rift Realm"

The winds of annihilation swirled around them.

It was like countless fragments of a world without time or beginning were cutting into them.

Jin Hanyan was seriously injured. Qin Yu was semi-conscious.

Extinguished Light stood alone at the forefront.

Three Xuan Mystic Void Realm experts slowly emerged from the depths of the Realm Splitting.

It carried an aura of World Extinguisher, completely enraged by the Reverse River Lamp.

At this moment—the three must fight back, or they will surely die.

The Final Void Rift Realm has no color and no sound.

Even the concept of "space" itself is stripped away here, leaving only an abyss of annihilation that is forever falling, forever broken, and forever bottomless.

Three figures at the Profound Mystic Void Realm slowly emerged from the depths of the Realm Splitting. It wasn't a matter of "approaching."

Rather, the world is forced to bow down to them.

The chest cavity of the Black Abyss Realm Devouring One split open, and nine black holes tore through reality;

The vortex atop the head of the Flame Crown World Render burned like a second sun for an eternity;

On the faceless face of the Soul-Bound Final Fallen One, countless weeping soul shadows appeared.

They did not speak. The Mystic Void Realm needs no words.

Their existence is an "absolute declaration" before the destruction of language.

The next instant— the Black Abyss Realm Devouring One raised its right arm.

Just one lift... Boom!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The entire Final Void Rift Realm seemed to be held upside down by an invisible giant hand.

Space was compressed into thin lines, and those lines were compressed into white rays.

The white awns were then pressed into powdery "fragments".

That was a blow powerful enough to destroy ten thousand worlds. It struck— Qin Yu, Jin Hanyan, and Extinguished Light.

Qin Yu could barely stand; the turmoil of death still churned in his chest.

Jin Hanyan's white clothes were stained with blood; the wound was deep enough to reach her bone marrow.

Extinguished Light stood alone at the front, raising her hand.

No light rose from her palm. On the contrary—

All light is extinguished. [Xuanji Return to Origin - The Lightless Final Wheel] -- The Fifth Form of Extinguished Light

The Stillness Light Wheel rose again, so enormous that it covered the entire sky of the Final Void Rift Realm.

A deafening roar exploded after the world had completely shattered—that wasn't sound.

It is the cry of a dimension breaking.

The three Xuan Mystic Void Realm paused for a brief moment. In that brief moment—

Jin Hanyan raised her hand and pointed a finger at the front of the Stillness Light Wheel. [Chaos Undivided, Heaven and Earth Judged] -- Domain Overturning

The entire Final Void Rift Realm instantly regressed to a state of "undifferentiated chaos".

There is no sky above, no earth below, and no direction to the left or right.

Cause and effect, time, and force all become ineffective.

The world-destroying strike of the Mystic Void Realm--

They were forcefully scattered in all directions by Jin Hanyan. But the price was—

Silvery-white blood spurted from the corner of Jin Hanyan's mouth.

The backlash from Mystic Void even stripped away a layer of her "definition of existence".

Seeing this, Qin Yu felt anger rise in his heart for the first time. He raised his hand,

The Reverse River Lamp in his left palm flickered faintly, while his right hand gripped the Silent Origin Stainless Sword.

The sound of death echoed within his body. The wind had never been so still.

The world has never been so tense. For the first time, he took the initiative to confront the Mystic Void Realm.

As the sword fell, heaven and earth seemed to defy fate, forced to make way for it: [Undefined Destruction Sword]

A deep crack was slashed across the massive chest cavity of the Black Abyss Realm Devouring One the Sword Qi.

It was as if the universe had been forcibly cleaved open. The earth shook and the sky trembled.

The Final Void Rift Realm was split in two.

The three Xuan Mystic Void Realm were forced back half a step.

But the next second—they got angry.

The Three Realms collapsed simultaneously

The massive black hole in the chest cavity of the Black Abyss Realm Devouring One exploded, splitting into ninety-nine cracks.

The devouring power exploded tenfold. The Flame Crown World Render, vortex-like, burned into a sea of white flames.

The timeline shattered and fell into the air.

The Soul-Bound Final Fallen One tears off his own shadow skin.

Thirty million wailing, faceless soul shadows burst forth. The Three Phases of Annihilation descended simultaneously.

The Extinguished Light between his brows cracked, and blood, now devoid of color, spilled out.

Jin Hanyan's white clothes were torn to shreds, and blood from her left arm dripped continuously into the air.

A second death mark appeared Reverse River Lamp Qin Yu's chest, and his body was on the verge of being shattered.

Three Xuan Mystic Void Realm strode forward.

The moment the foot landed, the Final Void Rift Realm shattered into countless fragments of "existence paper."

Qin Yu's hand gripping the sword trembled uncontrollably. "If this continues... we'll all die."

Extinguished Light said softly, "... If you take another step back, you will die."

Jin Hanyan stared intently upwards. "The Mystic Void Realm... we can't delay."

In this moment of despair--

A cold yet familiar voice exploded in Qin Yu's mind.

Qin Yu suddenly looked up. He knew—

If we don't call it that... all three of them will die.

He took a deep breath. "Azure Ring--!!"

A deep blue rift exploded in the void. The resounding echo was like the roar of countless ancient worlds overlapping.

Azure Ring appeared before the three in her full glory. A flash of azure light—

The Final Void Rift Realm shattered into countless fragments.

Azure Ring stated indifferently, "The Three Xuan Mystic Void... are deemed illegal entities."

The next breath -- the Silent Realm Returns to the Beginning, Fate's Existence Completely Covers All --

A billion life lines burned, shattered, and returned to zero amidst the green light.

For the first time, the three Xuan Mystic Void Realm were forced back—not by half a step.

Instead, his entire body was shattered, creating a "break in existence."

The Black Abyss Realm Devouring One's chest cavity collapsed by 30%; the Flame Crown World Render's Vortex Sun dimmed by half;

Large chunks of the Soul-Bound Final Fallen One's shadow skin were torn away. The entire Final Void Rift Realm—

The first sign appeared that "Mystic Void Realm might die."

Qin Yu, Jin Hanyan, and Extinguished Light all looked up at the same time. The tide of battle had turned.

This was the only chance, the last chance. They acted simultaneously.

The Stillness Light Wheel rises. The Nameless Box open the Realm Lock.

The Azure Ring of Silent Realm Returns to the Beginning, its destiny extinguished.

The Reverse River Lamp illuminates the final breath of death.

Qin Yu gripped the Silent Origin Stainless Sword, Min Extinguished Light raised his hand, Jin Hanyan pointed her finger, and the Azure Ring resounded, Realm Breaking.

The power of the four people converges simultaneously.

Heaven and earth turned white. Cause and effect turned white. Fate turned white. The world was forced to become "a still, blank sheet of paper".

Then—the four of them shouted in unison:—Destroy!!!!!

The world exploded into endless dust and light.

The three figures of the Profound Mystic Void Realm were torn apart, crushed, erased, and reduced to nothing.

The massive hole in the chest cavity of the Black Abyss Realm Devouring One was completely torn apart in the Lightless Final Wheel.

The Flame Crown World Render's Woyang was extinguished by Nameless Finger;

Those Soul-Bound Final Fallen One were forcibly pulled back to the "Unborn" state by the Azure Ring.

The Final Void Rift Realm was Annihilation as if it had never existed.

The light disappeared. The sound disappeared. The shadow disappeared.

The existence of the Mystic Void Realm has been completely erased.

At this moment, the world fell silent.

Qin Yu slowly lowered his hand.

Extinguished Light stared coldly at Jin Hanyan as she spat out a mouthful of blood.

The ringing of the Azure Ring rings gradually subsided. The three Mystic Void Realm —truly Annihilation.

The instant the three Xuan Mystic Void Realm were completely Annihilation, the entire Deep Root Lower Layers—

Like an ancient parchment being torn open, it begins to roll back, collapse, and scream.

The void, from layer 1 to layer 999, experienced uncontrolled oscillations.

Space shattered into inverted fragments of cause and effect, and time was torn apart like countless broken threads.

All the cultivators, regardless of their location, heard the same voice at the same moment:

It wasn't the heavens howling, nor the rules groaning, but rather—

The final sign when the "causal root formula" at the bottom layer of the Void Obliteration Domain is forcibly rewritten.

The next instant, the entire Deep Root Lower Layers was completely out of balance.

The entire world of 999 floors lost its support and collapsed.

Like shards of glass thrown into an endless abyss.

The Final Void Rift Realm, where Qin Yu, Jin Hanyan, Extinguished Light, and Azure Ring were located, shattered first.

There was no sense of time. There was no process of falling.

The four were directly "removed of their right to be on their respective floors" -- falling. -- endless falling.

--Fell to a place where even the act of "falling" cannot be recorded.

The moment it hit the ground, the "light" vanished. Not dimmed, but rather—

Light was stripped away as a concept. The three stood in an area that could not be defined by language.

There is no color, no space, no cause and effect, no before and after, no time.

There is only a "pseudo-world skeleton" where countless structures are generated and collapsed simultaneously.

It's like the universe has been stripped bare, leaving only the most basic, naked structural framework.

Jin Hanyan raised her head, her pupils shrinking sharply. "This place... isn't the Deep Root Lower Layers."

Extinguished Light said softly, "This place doesn't even belong to the Void Obliteration Domain."

Azure Ring's tone changed in an extremely rare manner: [World-class definition: Does Not Exist.]

Zero Cause Realm – the residual bottom layer before the Void Obliteration Domain was constructed.

Qin Yu's heartbeat became blurry here.

Because in this region, even a "heartbeat" is no longer a permitted rule.

And at the far end in front of them—an outline appeared.

Incomplete. Unstable.

It cannot be observed. It cannot be described.

But it's there. Like a door.

It's like a knife. It's like a dying universe.

That is -- "The Gate of Finality"

It wasn't floating there, but rather—

The entire Zero Cause Realm is "overflowing" in reverse from its logic of existence.

The Gate of Finality constantly breaks down and rebuilds itself.

The light of the blade and the light of the key flashed and then went out at the same time.

It seemed to be breathing, yet it also seemed to be dying.

Azure Ring, "Wow, Little Qinzi, could this be the Gate of Finality?"

Jin Hanyan took a deep breath. "The Gate of Finality??..."

Qin Yu felt a chill run down his spine: --This thing isn't a treasure.

It is "the source of all end times".

The Zero Cause Realm is like an inverted universe. Above is not a sky, but an endless array of fragmented "definition remnants":

Fragments of words written by someone during their lifetime, the names of forgotten deities,

The deleted trajectory of fate, the war that never happened,

A timeline that should have appeared but was discarded...

Everything floated in the black void like ashes. The ground was not the ground.

Instead, it is an infinitely deep "black waterfall of cause and effect".

The waterfall has no water flow, only an endless stream of failed fates falling downwards.

The "Gate of Finality" stands between the waterfall and the void.

It's like the entrance to the last path in the universe.

This is the Zero Cause Realm, the Deep Root Lower Layers.

The true end.

Qin Yu murmured, "No one should be allowed to set foot here."

Extinguished Light nodded. "Correct."

The moment I stepped into this place...

We are no longer allowed to 'go back'.

Jin Hanyan looked at the Gate of Finality: "But besides us, no one else can withstand it."

It has no fixed shape.

From Qin Yu's perspective, it was like an invisible blade, stretching from the void all the way to the end of eternity.

From Jin Hanyan's perspective, it is an incomplete key, attempting to open a door that Does Not Exist.

From Extinguished Light's perspective, it is a weeping abyss where black and white are reversed.

From Azure Ring's perspective, it is a "narrative" that is constantly dying, constantly resurrecting, constantly breaking apart, and constantly uniting.

It is very small, yet it seems to fill the entire world.

The blade sometimes resembles liquid, sometimes ash, sometimes starlight, and sometimes a forgotten dream.

Any attempt to describe its behavior,

They will all be "cancelled" the moment they are described. Because they are essentially --

Ultimate taboo that Does Not Exist nor can exist.

Jin Hanyan's voice trembled slightly. "This is no longer a forbidden weapon..."

Extinguished Light continued, "This is... the endgame itself."

Qin Yu remained silent. Because he knew—someone had to take up this "Gate of Finality."

But that means there's a chance it could be completely wiped out of the universe.

It's not death, but the fact that even "having existed" is not allowed.

Jin Hanyan frowned. "What are you thinking about?"

Qin Yu did not answer.

The air was still. The Gate of Finality continued to flicker ahead.

The blade's light flickered like the breath of the universe.

In the Zero Cause Realm, there is no wind, no sound, and no time.

But at that very moment, as the four stood frozen Gate of Finality Boundless Nothingness—

The entire "world" suddenly seemed to have been "seen" by some ancient will.

An invisible tremor spread from within the Gate of Finality.

It wasn't a vibration, but rather like "the universe taking a gentle breath."

The blade shattered. The key shape reformed. The colors disintegrated. The laws were extinguished.

The Boundless and the Gate of Finality —this forbidden and unique artifact...

It began to wake up on its own.

A chill ran down Qin Yu's spine: --It's awake?--No, it's... it's "reading" us?

Azure Ring gently leaned close to Qin Yu's shoulder, but didn't touch him. She only used her mind to transmit her thoughts: Little Qinzi, it... is choosing people.

Jin Hanyan frowned slightly, showing nervousness for the first time in front of Qin Yu: "It's not an inanimate object; it chooses its user."

Extinguished Light gazed silently ahead, a slight tremor in the abyss-like black light within his eyes. "The Gate of Finality never accepts voluntary use."

It will only allow someone to exist if they want it to be used by that person.

Qin Yu: "Allow me... to exist?"

Jin Hanyan said coldly, "If it thinks you're unworthy, you won't even leave that comment."

At that moment, the blade of the Gate of Finality suddenly flashed with the light of "Infinite Measure".

Not light, but a moment

The countless ultimate fates of the universes are reflected in Qin Yu, Jin Hanyan, Extinguished Light, and Azure Ring.

Those images were like a rewind of the future:

Qin Yu's Nine-Wheel True Evolution Dharma Wheel transformed into an annihilated sea of stars;

Jin Hanyan's Nameless Simplicity returns to the Chaos's First Birth;

The final glimmer of Extinguished Light, Final Radiance Annihilation Light and reflected back into an Annihilation black hole;

The Silent Ring of the Azure Ring transformed into countless shattered primordial realms...

Then -- everything was cancelled.

It was denied. It was erased. Then, a "silent sound" came from inside the Gate of Finality.

It was as if someone had spoken from the deepest part of the universe: [--you.]

The next moment. Boundless and without end. The Gate of Finality.

It pinpointed Qin Yu with unerring accuracy, as if choosing its destined one.

Jin Hanyan's pupils contracted slightly. "It's him?"

Extinguished Light turned his head to look at Qin Yu, and for the first time, a light similar to "approval" appeared in his black hole-like eyes.

Azure Ring jumped up Azure Ring.

Her petite figure suddenly floated in the windless void of the Zero Cause Realm, and a halo of light exploded, creating circles of pale blue ripples.

Then, with her hands on her hips, she called out in a tone that was both serious and amusing, "Little Qinzi! Look at you!"

Good heavens, even the Gate of Finality, something that would terrify the entire universe, chose you! What kind of monster did I, Azure Ring, end up with?!

Qin Yu: "..."

Azure Ring continued muttering, "If I had known you were this capable, I should have set off more fireworks when I awakened! That would have been more in line with who you are now!"

Extinguished Light chuckled softly, a rare gentleness in his voice. "It wasn't randomly selected."

Jin Hanyan nodded. "The Gate of Finality always chooses... the person most likely to 'reach the end' in the entire Void Obliteration Domain in the future."

Azure Ring leaned on Qin Yu's shoulder and whispered in a voice only he could hear, "Little Qinzi, are you happy or not? You're pretending to be calm, but Azure Ring knows... you're actually so happy you want to fly."

Qin Yu was slightly taken aback. Then he actually smiled.

It wasn't a victorious laugh, nor a proud laugh.

Rather, it's that kind of genuine, irrepressible laughter—when the answer to fate suddenly shines into your heart.

Just as that smile appeared—a crack suddenly appeared on the blade of the Gate of Finality.

There was light coming from the crevice. It wasn't normal light, but rather...

What remains after being "reverse-compressed" by all possibilities is an infinitely thin line.

That ray of light quietly landed in Qin Yu's palm.

It has no weight. No shape. No temperature.

But it was like—the last words of the entire universe.

Azure Ring exclaimed, "Little Qinzi!! You've been acknowledged! You've truly been 'written into the future' by the Gate of Finality!!"

Extinguished Light whispered, "Since the boundless is gone... the choice for the Gate of Finality is complete."

Jin Hanyan raised her eyes. "From this moment on, you possess the sole Ultimate authority of the Void Obliteration Domain."

And so, at the deepest part of the Zero Cause Realm,

Within the forbidden zone of ultimate destruction, where even existence is forbidden to leave a trace—

Qin Yu obtained the Boundless Nothingness - Gate of Finality.

At that moment, even the Zero Cause Realm itself trembled, as if welcoming a new holder of the End.

The light of the Gate of Finality had completely sunk into Qin Yu's palm, like a still end point.

The Zero Cause Realm remained silent, yet it was secretly collapsing—as if even "space" was unwilling to approach Qin Yu's current authority.

Qin Yu looked at the three of them. "So what do we do now? Is this place... even possible to get out?"

Jin Hanyan gently shook her head, her long silver hair flowing like a liquid in the windless void. "The Zero Cause Realm has no exit."

This place is a place where Does Not Exist exit'.

Extinguished Light raised his eyes, his black-hole-like pupils reflecting the sliver of utterly destructive light in Qin Yu's palm:

"Unless someone can force the concept of 'export' to become a reality."

Qin Yu remained silent for a moment, then looked at Azure Ring.

Azure Ring leaped from Qin Yu's shoulder and landed on his chest, hands on her hips, her eyes shining like two blue stars:

Little Qinzi, have you forgotten what treasure you're holding?

Qin Yu: "The Gate of Finality?"

Azure Ring nodded, her expression playful yet spirited: [That's right! You're now the only person in the Void Obliteration Domain... who can get the 'Final Game' executed ahead of schedule!]

She reached out and poked the sliver of gray light in Qin Yu's palm. "[The rule here is: 'You can't leave.' The rule of the Gate of Finality is: 'What I say is possible, is possible.'"

So... if you just make 'being able to leave' the end result, it will comply.

Qin Yu's lips curled up slightly. "Okay... I'll give it a try."

The surroundings suddenly darkened. Not that the light disappeared, but rather—

The right to light was unconsciously taken away by Qin Yu.

The blade light of the Gate of Finality trembled slightly in his palm.

Then a sound began to resonate throughout the Zero Cause Realm—

It wasn't a vibration, it wasn't a roar, but...

The sound of the rules themselves being snapped.

Qin Yu slowly raised his hand.

That ray of light at the end... gently swept across the void.

The next instant—the entire world shattered into "The Ending".

The space turned into gray dust;

Time seems to have been paused and then deleted;

The threads of cause and effect scattered and fell from beneath Qin Yu's feet like broken ropes;

The "boundary" of the Zero Cause Realm was torn into a static sheet by an unseen end.

It was as if Qin Yu had "written periods" all over the entire world with a single finger.

Extinguished Light murmured softly, "... It really works."

For the first time, Jin Hanyan showed complete shock. She sighed softly, "The Gate of Finality... truly lives up to its name..."

The cracked gray world began to flow backward, and then appeared before Qin Yu—

A crack appeared, entirely woven from "light that is not allowed to exist".

Azure Ring suddenly pointed to the crack: [Little Qinzi! The exit is here!!]

Qin Yu took a deep breath and stepped into the crevice.

Extinguished Light and Jin Hanyan followed closely behind. When the four of them had completely entered the light—

The entire Zero Cause Realm seemed to be executed by the "final judgment" and collapsed in an instant.

There was no explosion. There were no aftershocks.

No trace. The Zero Cause Realm begins from this moment.

Completely disappeared from all records of the Void Obliteration Domain.

Even the fact that something "had disappeared" is no longer allowed to exist.

The light reappeared.

The world has wind, color, and sound.

When Qin Yu looked up, dark clouds loomed overhead, and the familiar yet heavy aura of the Void Obliteration Domain rushed towards him.

They stood on a vast fractured plain.

The distant mountains were cleaved into neat cross-sections, and faint gray cracks, ripped open by the power of the end, still lingered in the sky.

Extinguished Light looked around. "This place... is the Sinking Cause Wasteland in the northwest of the Void Obliteration Domain."

Jin Hanyan breathed a sigh of relief, her long, snow-white hair cascading down her shoulder. "We've left the Zero Cause Realm."

Azure Ring landed back on Qin Yu's shoulder, gently shaking his head. "See! How amazing my Little Qinzi! He used the Gate of Finality to open a boundary and escape on the very first day!!"

Qin Yu chuckled, then sighed helplessly, "Are you praising me or insulting me?"

Azure Ring smiled, her eyes crinkling like a Xiao Yue: "You're too kind! The only person who could have the Gate of Finality used as a 'key' to open it... is you."

Qin Yu bypassed the Zero Cause Realm and successfully returned to the Void Obliteration Domain.

The sky over the Deep Wind Wasteland, windswept plains was a somber gray, like a thin, lingering mist of impending doom.

After the four landed, the world was silent, with only the low murmur of the wind blowing through the broken mountains.

Jin Hanyan's gaze fell on Qin Yu. Her almost transparent, icy blue eyes narrowed slightly. Her voice remained cold, but for the first time, it carried a hint of genuine emotion. "Your name is Qin Yu?"

Qin Yu nodded.

Jin Hanyan continued, "My name is Jin Hanyan. Although you are Annihilation Dawn Realm · Supreme, but..."

She looked up, her long, silvery-white hair cascading over her shoulders like the first light of dawn falling on snow. "This time, if it weren't for you—"

I fear I will truly Annihilation Deep Root Lower Layers.

Qin Yu was taken aback. He dispersed the aftershocks of the shattered realm and said calmly, "Miss Jin, there's no need for thanks."

Without you, none of the three of us could have escaped alone.

Jin Hanyan remained silent for a moment, as if assessing whether Qin Yu's words were perfunctory, but in the end she only nodded lightly.

"Thank you so much, I won't say thank you. Well then... farewell."

She gently raised her hand, and a wisp of primordial energy, still undifferentiated, flowed between her fingers, tearing open a pure white crack.

"I must return to the Silent Nothingness Divine Hall to see its master. If our fates intersect, we shall meet again in the future."

Qin Yu cupped his hands in greeting. "Take care, Miss Jin."

Jin Hanyan stepped into the crevice.

A white light engulfed her slender figure, vanishing Wuhen in the next instant. Heaven and earth returned to silence.

Azure Ring peeked half her head out from Qin Yu's shoulder, clutching her little light wheel in both hands, her voice bright and clear:

"Tsk tsk tsk... Looks like Little Qinzi is quite lucky. If he can win over that girl in one fell swoop, hahaha!"

Qin Yu: "..."

Azure Ring continued her nonsensical ramblings with a straight face, "A great beauty from the Stainless Realm, a direct descendant of the Silent Nothingness Divine Hall, a peerless beauty formed from the primordial light of chaos..."

And you ended up saving her, huh? What a coincidence!

Qin Yu rubbed his forehead. "Alright, this battle was too tiring, let's rest first."

Azure Ring hummed in agreement, turned around, hugged her halo, and jumped into Qin Yu's brow.

"Alright, alright, let's end this Deep Root Lower Layers hunt here. I'm going back to swing on the swings."

After saying this, Azure Ring light and fell into her sea of consciousness.

With a slight thought, Qin Yu saw the world formed by the giant Void Divine Tree deep within his sea of consciousness. Sure enough, Azure Ring was already sitting on a swing woven from light, swaying back and forth, humming a Nameless tune that Does Not Exist in this world at all.

"This guy..." Qin Yu chuckled.

Extinguished Light stood beside him, her black, abyssal pupils narrowing, and the platinum light returned to her long hair.

She said softly, "... Qin Yu... you're tired too."

Qin Yu nodded. "Yes. This time Deep Root Lower Layers... it was really exhausting."

Extinguished Light raised her hand and sat down beside him. Her skirt spread out like black and gold starlight, and when it gently touched the ground, a ring of light dust settled.

She closed her eyes, like the only tranquility in a silent universe.

Qin Yu sat down cross-legged, gently circulating his Silent Origin Soul Breath.

The two sat side by side. There was no wind, no enemy, and no killing intent.

Only the gentle, slow breathing echoed faintly in the aftershocks of the wasteland's end.
