All Tides Return to Silence, Silent Profundity Judges the Heavens
The absolute stillness of the Southern Territory of the Void Obliteration Domain, which had just Silent Profundity by the stillness of the Silence of Profound Mystery, had not yet fully regained its breath of "existence." The world was like a thin sheet of paper being pressed down, all sounds suppressed into an invisible layer. Qin Yu stood in the center of the stillness domain, his robes hanging down, the void beneath his feet slightly collapsing, as if the entire world was making way for him. Just as he was about to tear through the void to leave,
A pure, Light of Stainlessness, so pure it sent shivers down one's spine, approached without warning from the far distance. It wasn't speed, but the approach of a "judgment," like a pre-written conclusion pushing time toward it. Before the light even touched him, the entire Southern Territory began to purify itself. Colors were stripped away, shadows were smoothed out, and even the "impurities" in the air were washed away, leaving only an almost blinding blankness.
Qin Yu slightly raised his head, his gaze calm. The aura of his initial breakthrough to the Silent Profundity flowed naturally within his body, but he didn't release it outwards in the slightest. He didn't even adopt a fighting stance; he simply stood there, like a still point embedded on the edge of the world. "Oh, I didn't expect that someone would come to practice with me so soon after I broke through to the Silent Mystery Realm." As soon as he finished speaking, he neither retreated nor advanced, letting the Light of Stainlessness continue to approach, as if he were waiting for a meeting that he had long anticipated.
The next instant, the sky was torn apart.
It wasn't a crack, but rather the entire sky was "lifted" from within by a Stainless will. Clouds, the outer shell of rules, and the spatial manifestations all rolled to both sides simultaneously, like a world curtain being forcibly torn open, revealing the high-dimensional dome burning with platinum-gold Stainless radiance behind it. A deep and ancient roar did not come out in the form of sound, but it caused the entire structure of existence in the Southern Territory of the Void Obliteration Domain to tremble at the same time. A colossal figure that blotted out the sky slowly stepped out from within the Stainless radiance.
Glazed Dao-Extinguishing Zheng.
Its body was so enormous that it defied measurement, like a moving celestial mountain composed of countless layers of transparent glass and ancient Dao patterns. Its surface was not flesh and blood, but rather translucent, Stainless crystals. Within each "scale" flowed purified causal light patterns. With each breath, the light patterns flickered, as if billions of predetermined destinies were opening and closing simultaneously. The moment its limbs stepped out of the high-dimensional dome, the space below could not withstand the weight of that pure existence, and it silently cracked, collapsing layer by layer, yet forcibly maintaining its integrity under the constraint of the Stainless power.
Its pupils were not eyes, but two slowly rotating, Stainless halos. The halos reflected not the external scene, but the original state of all things before they were "purified". Any being gazed upon by those halos would instinctively expose its own impurities, deviations and sins, and then feel the fear of being erased. When that gaze truly fell on Qin Yu, the entire world seemed to hold its breath.
Its body resembles a red leopard, yet it appears even more majestic and elegant. Its fur is like that forged from flames, but it is not the red of ordinary fire; rather, it possesses a pure and flawless amber-red light, translucent and crystalline, like the morning glow reflecting on snow, without a trace of dust or dirt. Dark black patterns are faintly visible on its fur, flowing like ancient runes, containing endless laws of the void. Each pattern is like a rift in the void, emitting a faint, Light of Stainlessness.
It has a single horn on its head (or a phantom image of four horns), the horn is carved from white jade, crystal clear, the tip of the horn emits a soft light, not a weapon for attack, but a light of wisdom that Break Delusion. It has two wings on its waist, the feathers are like those of a phoenix, but not colorful, but pure Stainless, with iridescent halos flowing around the edges of the feathers. When it spreads its wings, it is silent, yet it can traverse the void in an instant.
Its five tails are long and flowing, each tail layered like a feather fan, with Stainless, luminous feathers at the tip. As they sway gently, they scatter specks of light dust, and wherever they touch, all filth and attachment vanish into nothingness. Its eyes are like glass gemstones, deep and serene. Wherever its gaze falls, all things reveal their true nature, without joy or anger, only pure light.
Its overall posture is agile and powerful, yet it transcends the mundane world, moving without disturbing a single blade of grass or tree. A faint mist surrounds its body, as if it were in an endless void. Its roar is no longer like the clanging of striking stone, but a low murmur like the echoing of sacred chants, cleansing the soul and bringing enlightenment about impermanence.
Behind Glazed Dao-Extinguishing Zheng, the black tide poured down.
Tens of thousands of demon spirits and divine beasts at the Void Emanation Realm · Supreme, as if drawn by the same chain of Fate Soul, surged forth from the depths of the torn sky, instantly obscuring the already fragile heavens. The flapping of their giant wings did not stir up wind, but rather waves of intertwined reality and illusion. Some of the demon beasts resembled ancient dragons made of star remains, their backs embedded with fragments of a shattered world.
Each flap of its wings left a trail of fractured space; some divine beasts transformed into bizarre forms with multiple heads and tails, their bodies half real and half Void Evolution, their very existence violently trembling; and countless demonic spirits, their bodies entwined with remnants of cause and effect, their eyes burning with a mad flame forcibly elevated to the Supreme level, their auras overlapping to form a constantly churning torrent of Void Evolution energy, pressing down on the Southern Territory space layer by layer.
Stainless white flames surged high in the sky, while Void Evolution black tides gathered below them. At this moment, the world was divided into two completely different extreme colors. Qin Yu stood at the intersection of these two extremes, his figure appearing unusually "quiet." His robes fell gently in the windless void, and the Silent Profundity beneath his feet was like an unseen deep sea, silently swallowing all the oppression.
The Glazed Dao-Extinguishing Zheng hovered before the myriad demons, its enormous form like an inverted, Stainless celestial mountain. It looked down at the tiny yet undeniable figure below, and without a word, the entire world understood—this was not a hunt, but a judgment.
Qin Yu clearly saw the colossal shadow suspended in the sky. His Silent Mystery Realm · Initial Stage silently unfolded, peeling away layer after layer of disguise and radiance from the Stainless crystalline body. He coldly snorted, his voice not loud, yet like a pebble dropped into a still sea, the ripples reaching the very depths of existence. "I never expected that after searching everywhere for you, you would appear on your own. The last calamity beast, the Glazed Dao-Extinguishing Zheng."
High in the sky, the two rotating, Stainless halos paused slightly. The Glazed Dao-Extinguishing Zheng looked down, its gaze like two measuring rulers being calibrated. "Human, who gave you such courage to speak to me like this?" Its will reverberated through the space, and the white-gold Stainless flames lit up layer by layer along its body, as if it would cleanse the world anew in the next moment.
A cold smile curled at the corner of Qin Yu's lips, his gaze straight and sharp. "Is your master— the Thought Severance Devouring Emperor —only good at hiding in the shadows and sending you lackeys out to die?"
The moment those words fell, the Stainless crystals surrounding the Glazed Dao-Extinguishing Zheng simultaneously lit up, their radiance surging, causing the entire Southern Territory to vibrate and hum. The two Stainless halos suddenly tightened, as if their rage had been compressed to its Limit, "You mere human, how dare you insult my master! Today I will tear you to pieces!"
Qin Yu merely smiled, his Silent Profundity stillness flowing within him without leaking out. "A mere demon beast dares to spout such nonsense? Then let's fight."
The next moment, Glazed Dao-Extinguishing Zheng suddenly raised his head, his will crashing down like thunder, "Crush those insignificant humans to pieces."
The instant the sound faded, the black tide beneath the sky spiraled completely out of control. Tens of thousands of Void Emanation Realm · Supreme demon spirits, monsters, and divine beasts roared simultaneously, their existence as if suddenly tightened by an invisible Fate Soul rope, instantly plunging downwards. A torrent of illusory and real forces swept in, tearing open vast rifts in space with the flapping of their giant wings, their claws shattering the still-unstable Southern Territory rule layer as they stepped through the air.
Some demonic beasts transformed into Void Evolution afterimages, moving so fast that their trajectories were blurred; some divine beasts opened their blood-red maws, spewing not flames, but Void Evolution streams compressed to the Ultimate, and wherever they passed, the earth itself began to loosen before it even had a chance to collapse.
At this moment, the world seemed to consist only of "falling" and "tearing apart," with all the beasts pouring down from higher dimensions like an amplified natural disaster, carrying an oppressive force that could engulf everything.
Qin Yu, however, stood still, not taking a single step back.
He raised his right hand, and the Silent Origin Stainless Sword silently appeared in his palm. The sword was crystal clear, as if it were forged from the purest "Stainless" and "Silent Origin." The blade was not dazzling, but it caused the surrounding light to automatically give way. Qin Yu's gaze passed over the surging tide of beasts, as if he were watching a narrative whose ending had already been written.
"Slash." As soon as he finished speaking, he slightly turned his wrist, and the sword blade was thrust forward horizontally. --Silent Origin Stainless Sword · Historyless Void Severance Sword.
This sword strike had no trajectory. There was no sword light, no explosion. The moment the sword was thrust out, it was as if an invisible hand had pressed down and erased the page of the world. Centered on Qin Yu, the space in front of him suddenly collapsed into a realm without history—a place where there was no past, no events, no records. All the demon spirits and divine beasts that were diving down froze the moment they stepped into that area.
The next instant, they were not shattered, but rather the very basis for their "having ever existed" was lost. The massive beast bodies disintegrated silently, not turning into blood mist, but like words erased from history, fading, thinning, and dissipating layer by layer. Before the roar could be uttered, the form had already collapsed; before the momentum had ended, existence had been emptied out first.
The Unknown Realm surged forward, flattening the beast tide as if it were being pounded by an invisible wave. Rows of Void Emanation Realm · Supreme demon beasts, spirits, and divine beasts vanished one after another, leaving not even a trace, only a brief "blank gap" in the air, as if nothing should have existed there in the first place.
In just a few breaths, the once overwhelming torrent of beasts was wiped out by this sword, leaving the sky suddenly empty. Only scattered remnants of demonic spirits remained, frozen in terror high above, their courage to continue charging severed by that sword.
Qin Yu slowly sheathed his sword, the tip drooping. The brilliance of the Silent Origin Stainless Sword receded once more. He looked up at the Glazed Dao-Extinguishing Zheng, which was still suspended high in the sky, his gaze calm and indifferent, as if what he had just wiped away was nothing more than an insignificant speck of dust.
The two pupils of the Glazed Dao-Extinguishing Zheng, resembling Stainless crystal wheels, suddenly trembled in the high sky. In an instant, the Stainless Dao foundation within its body vibrated on its own, and even the rhythm of its radiant flames showed extremely subtle disturbances. For the first time, an uncontrollable sense of astonishment arose in its heart—how could a mere human at the Silent Mystery Realm · Initial Stage possibly unleash such a level of Annihilation logic?
But this initial surprise was quickly replaced by rage.
It suddenly raised its head, its gigantic maw opened wide, and Stainless voice crashed down like the severing of heaven and earth, overwhelming the wind and thunder, shattering the clouds. "All of you, attack! Unleash your Void Emanation Realm divine abilities! That kid is strange; don't hold back any of your trump cards!"
The moment the command was given, the remaining demon spirits, monsters, and divine beasts simultaneously emitted a low, frantic response.
The sky suddenly cracked open.
One after another, Void Emanation Realm divine abilities ignited simultaneously, dragging the entire Southern Territory into an out-of-control dimensional storm. Void Evolution Flames intertwined in the sky, and some demonic beasts spread their Void Evolution Wings, which split open on their backs. Between the flaps of their wings, billions of afterimages of reality and illusion overlapped, forming a constantly flashing torrent of slaughter; some divine beasts "virtualized" their own existence, transforming into multiple shadow forms that could not be locked, each flash accompanied by a burst of sound as space was torn apart; and some demonic spirits completely burned their Void Evolution Dao Foundation. When their divine abilities were unleashed, the world seemed to be painted into a scroll that was constantly being rewritten. Thunder, ice prisons, burning domains, and soul howls fell simultaneously, layer upon layer, disordered yet resonating with each other.
That wasn't a single attack, but a tsunami of world -World Extinguisher divine powers from the Void Emanation Realm · Supreme.
Light, shadow, fire, thunder, nothingness, and annihilation all poured down on Qin Yu's location at the same time, the space was compressed to the point of emitting a piercing cracking sound, the rules seemed to be roughly crushed and then pieced back together, and even the "direction" itself began to become disordered.
Qin Yu remained standing in the same spot.
He raised his eyes, gazing at the torrent of divine power that would make even ordinary Stainless Realm cultivators hesitate, his gaze calm to the point of indifference. Then he let out a soft, cold snort, his voice not loud, yet crystal clear in the Silent Profundity: "Glazed Dao-Extinguishing Zheng, if you're just a coward too, then you can decide for yourselves. Let me show you the Silent Mystery Realm."
Before he finished speaking, he took a step forward. There was no build-up of momentum, no prelude to an outburst.
The moment Qin Yu took that step, he vanished from his original spot. It wasn't that he was so fast he was invisible; rather, he deliberately broke free from the "pre- and post-positioned" boundaries within the Silent Mystery Realm.
In the next instant, he appeared right in the center of the raging torrent of demonic beasts.
The Silent Origin Stainless Sword was reversed in his hand, its blade pointing downwards.
At this moment, heaven and earth suddenly stood still. --The Silent Profundity Unborn.
This move was not a slash. In fact, Does Not Exist clear boundary to "activation" itself. Qin Yu simply let his own Silent Profundity gently spread outward.
In an instant, all the Void Emanation Realm divine abilities that were being released, had already been released, or were not yet fully formed simultaneously experienced a strange slowdown. Those Ultimate attacks did not explode, did not clash, but paused slightly in mid-air, as if being held up by an invisible hand, and then—began to lose their "qualification to be born".
The demonic beast's supernatural powers were still there, but it seemed as if they had never truly been conceived in the first place; the Void Evolution flames were still shining, but they could not advance even an inch further; the lightning was frozen in mid-air, and the sea of fire was frozen into a static scene.
Immediately afterwards, the stillness of the Silent Profundity completely closed in.
All beings encompassed within—supernatural powers, energy, demonic beasts, spirits, and divine beasts—silently returned to "before Unborn." They had no process of death, nor any trace of dissipation; they were simply reclaimed at some unidentifiable juncture, as if they had never truly been allowed to enter this moment.
Suddenly, the world vanished.
The once overwhelming horde of demonic beasts was completely wiped out in a matter of breaths. The sky was so clean it was almost cruel, leaving not even a trace of the battle's aftershocks, as if those tens of thousands of Void Emanation Realm · Supreme experts had always been nothing more than a flawed assumption about to be rejected.
Qin Yu in the center of the void, his robes drooping without wind, the Silent Origin Stainless Sword returned to its calm state in his hand. He slowly raised his head, his gaze falling on the only remaining figure in the sky.
Glazed Dao-Extinguishing Zheng.
At this moment, its massive, Stainless body froze in mid-air, its pupils contracting violently, revealing for the first time an almost uncontrollable shock. It could neither understand nor accept that a human at the Silent Mystery Realm · Initial Stage had actually managed to single-handedly Annihilation all of its subordinates at the Void Emanation Realm · Supreme.
It wasn't a matter of quantity; it was a matter of hierarchical understanding being completely crushed. In the next instant, shock was ignited into rage.
The Glazed Dao-Extinguishing Zheng roared to the sky, its Stainless Radiance expanding wildly, as if the sky above the entire Southern Territory had been forcibly lowered. Its voice was devoid of any reason. "Damn human—you are not worthy of such divine power..." The true calamity pressure of the Supreme level of the Immaculate Realm was finally released in its entirety.
