Abyss of Origin Silence · Origin Destroyer Returns to Its Master
After Chi Lan and Chi Yuankui perished, the fused being in the mirror did not linger for even a moment. Its figure silently disintegrated after annihilation, and with it, the blue light of the floating mirror also disappeared. The azure dissipated, and the mirror returned to its calm state, as if nothing had ever happened.
Only a wisp of lingering soul remained in the air, whispering as if recounting an irreversible fate.
A moment later, a figure quietly stepped out from behind the withered shadow, his expression solemn, his eyes like cold stars.
Qin Yu appeared.
He slowly approached the mirror that had been restored to its original state, his footsteps treading over shattered bones and bloody mud. The Azure Ring within him hummed softly, as if sensing some unusual stirring.
"Chi Lan and Chi Yuankui were killed by their own reflections in the mirror... Is the mirror itself a secret artifact for guiding souls?"
He stared intently at the mirror, his inner consciousness subtly probing within his body.
But just as Qin Yu approached within three zhang—
"Hiss..."
The mirror suddenly trembled, and a blurry soul rapidly condensed within it.
But this time, it failed to "reflect" Qin Yu's appearance!
Just as the soul in the mirror was about to replicate Qin Yu's body, deep within his sea of consciousness, Azure Ring stirred slightly!
That movement was like a divine power descending to earth, directly severing the mirror's soul projection mechanism!
The mirror began to distort violently, and the creatures reflected within became completely unfamiliar.
A ghostly figure appears in the mirror.
It was a crimson entity, as red as blood.
He held an ancient sword made entirely of crimson, its blade surrounded by seven red halos, its soul energy devouring space like raging flames.
This being was clad in tattered red armor, its crimson hair moved without wind, its face was ferocious and indifferent, neither human nor spirit.
He stood before the mirror, and as his aura filled the air, time in the entire area seemed to stand still!
The leaves did not fall, the breath did not flow, and the soul light did not move. Only the Azure Ring between Qin Yu's brows trembled slightly, resisting that time-defying will.
"That is..." Qin Yu's gaze suddenly sharpened as he sensed a power completely different from the 'Reflection Body'.
He spoke coldly, "It seems... even mirrors can fail to reflect and replicate."
Before he finished speaking, the Black Bone War Spear in his hand was drawn with a roar, and his fighting spirit soared into the sky!
The Mirror Image made the first move, slashing down with a single finger, and the crimson ancient sword summoned its first combat technique:
Blood Wheel - Death Pendant
The seven red rings instantly shattered into millions of tiny soul chains, woven like blood threads, which stabbed fiercely towards Qin Yu's soul platform!
Qin Yu swept his black spear across, unleashing the first move of the Silent Origin: Wheel-Breaking Seal!
Suddenly, a shattered soul wheel appeared at the tip of the spear, the soul chains were severed, and the void was torn apart.
"A soul-type attacker?" Qin Yu's eyes sharpened, initially judging that this enemy was a "death-type" being that had extremely compressed soul life and time flow!
The opponent swept his longsword horizontally, the Sword Qi forming a ring, urging the Seven Abysses Recurrent Severance to divide his own soul power into seven segments, forming seven intermittent killing moves against Qin Yu!
Qin Yu raised his palm to the void, unleashing his second move:
Silent Origin - Boundless Ashes!
The soul power Return to One, forming a black-gold fire, which annihilated seven killing souls with a single palm strike!
But the moment the sword's momentum collapsed, the opponent used his soul to surge forward and slashed Qin Yu's left shoulder with his crimson sword!
As the first drops of blood were spilled, Qin Yu let out a soft groan.
'You're pretty strong.'
Qin Yu unleashed the Silent Origin - Trace the Spirit Abyss!
The Time-Space Soul Lock retraced its course, attempting to pull the other's soul into a reverse reincarnation.
But the creature reflected in the mirror suddenly stopped and coldly uttered an ancient saying:
You are not worthy of my command to rewind time.
'Oh my, you can talk!'
A Red Ring Space-Rending Formation appeared around him, directly shattering Qin Yu's Reincarnation Soul Lock.
Qin Yu's gaze darkened.
"It actually withstood the 'Trace the Spirit Abyss'..."
The enemy figure suddenly stepped into the air, unleashing a sword strike that turned the world crimson as he unleashed the Deadly Edge - Annihilation Realm Splitting!
This sword strike severs the very instinct to exist and breathe!
Qin Yu roared and raised his hand to condense the fourth move, Silent Origin - Eternally Sever the Heavenly Balance!
A Heavenly Balance Seal descended from the sky, its powerful black light severing his very soul!
The two forces collided, and the battlefield trembled!
The two retreated five zhang (approximately 10 meters) together, their black blood and red souls mingling and scattering!
The enemy's eyes flashed with intense killing intent as he thrust his sword forward, unleashing the Blood Abyss Wheel Slash - Time Soul Collapse!
Its Sword Qi detonated the soul threads in the name of "Time," Qin Yu immediately felt time accelerate, making it difficult for his body to keep in sync with his soul consciousness!
He roared and swung his spear horizontally, unleashing the Ring Spear Technique: World-Slaying Slash!
The spear, like World Extinguisher lightning bolt, cleaved through all illusion and reality!
The soul threads collapsed, and the opponent was also shaken!
The opponent unleashed two combat techniques in succession:
Fate-Reversing Drum: One strike reverses the Fate Soul;
The Day-Severing Soul-Sealing Diagram: Seals off the entire area's soul senses.
Qin Yu's response:
Ring Spear, Second Form: Silent Severing Abyss, severing the echoing sound of its drumming soul;
Ring Spear, Third Form: Heaven-Extinguishing Ash, using the Soul-Sealing Fire to burn away the Soul-Sealing Diagram!
The soul fire blazed fiercely in the battle zone, causing red mist to rise everywhere; it had reached a stage of life-or-death struggle!
The creature wielded its swords with both hands and used the Crimson Ash Realm-Rending Wheel to forcibly tear open space, slashing towards Qin Yu's Fate Soul!
Qin Yu roared in fury, unleashing the Ring Spear - Fourth Form: Sever Causality, Return to Silence!
The black and gold spear flashed through the void, forcefully severing the enemy's left arm!
However, the enemy figure did not retreat. Instead, it raised its hand and struck its brow, destroying part of its soul consciousness and activating its Ultimate skill with its soul blood!
The enemy unleashes their Ultimate technique, Crimson Night's Decree: Abyss of Fate Abyss!
Using soul blood as a catalyst, sever all "temporal meaning" within three breaths of the battle zone!
Everything is frozen, and the spear cannot advance!
Qin Yu's body stiffened slightly, but the Azure Ring within his body vibrated and glowed at that moment!
He whispered:
"You want to erase 'time'... but you forget that I was never part of the 'world' you defined."
He slowly raised his hand, Azure Ring - First Form - Spirit Edge Piercing the Realm: Void-Breaking Extreme Slash!
A streak of azure light pierced the eternal night, descending in a flash!
In that instant, the Soul Realm shattered, time collapsed, and the laws within the mirror were directly pierced!
The mirror-image creature's pupils contracted, and before it could react, it was torn apart into billions of soul fragments by the azure light, its very existence erased.
Boom!!
The entire Mirror Domain battlefield collapsed, the black soil cracked, and the Soul Sea surged backward!
Qin Yu sheathed his spear, lightly wiping the blood from the corner of his lips, and murmured to himself as he gazed at the shattered mirror's afterglow:
"Was this... prepared specifically for 'me'?"
'All my combat techniques only caused it minor injuries; thankfully, the power of the Azure Ring is unmatched.'
The Azure Ring chimed softly, as if in response.
After Qin Yu used the Azure Ring - First Form, Spirit Edge Piercing the Realm, and "Void-Breaking Extreme Slash" to wipe out the creatures in the mirror, the entire floating Netherworld Mirror trembled violently, and countless layers of shattered spatial patterns instantly appeared on its surface, spreading out like a spider web.
"Click--"
The instant the crack shattered, Qin Yu's pupils contracted sharply, and he felt the entire world being suddenly pulled by an incomparably terrifying force!
"... The space is collapsing?!"
Before he could react, he was swallowed up by the vortex created after the mirror collapsed.
At that moment, heaven and earth vanished, time and logic broke down, and he seemed to fall into a chaotic void where cause and effect had been erased.
This is not space, but the "Abyss of Origin Destruction."
Abyss of Origin Destruction: The Divine Sword Revealed
Heaven and earth are formless, all paths are silent.
In the heart of a pitch-black, deathly space, only one thing stands.
It was a long sword as black as a bottomless abyss, the World Extinguisher Divine Sword - Origin Destroyer.
It stood atop an obsidian altar radiating purple starlight, surrounded by countless shattered Soul Seal, fragments of time, and remnants of boundary patterns, as if this sword had once cleaved through eternity.
It moves without wind, and vibrates without force.
The moment Qin Yu stared at it, his soul was almost instantly ripped out!
"!!" 'In just a split second, Qin Yu was almost completely wiped out.'
Suddenly, his sea of consciousness trembled violently, Azure Ring abruptly appeared!
"Buzz--"
The Azure Ring rotated three times, layer upon layer, forcibly stabilizing Qin Yu's sea of consciousness and blocking the retaliatory strike of the Source-Extinguishing Divine Sword!
The sword did not move, but the mere gaze of the "unacknowledged" was enough to strip away the very essence of existence and evaporate the soul!
"This... is neither an Imperial Weapon nor Origin Soul Weapon..."
Qin Yu's gaze was icy as he uttered in a low voice, "This is a [Origin Silence Artifact] that surpasses the upper levels of the Soul Realm's structure."
The Will to Origin Destroyer - Refusal to Merge
As he attempted to approach, a scarlet rune suddenly appeared on the altar of the Source-Extinguishing Divine Sword:
Sever its soul, silence its cause, none can rival it, and none may wield this sword.
"... So you actually rejected me?"
Qin Yu stopped in his tracks. The suppression wasn't hostile, but rather an Ultimate calm [logic of exclusion].
If one is not the vessel of the 'cause of the world's existence,' one should not touch this sword.
"You are choosing a host..." Qin Yu murmured, a cold smile flashing in his eyes.
"Unfortunately, I wasn't one of those chosen."
Azure Ring takes action: Forced reconstruction and integration
Qin Yu slowly raised his hand, and the divine ring containing the secrets of the universe's Silent Origin slowly emerged in his palm.
The first move of the Azure Ring is initiated, followed by the second and third moves in a series of leaps, until...
The Azure Ring True Narrative Source Mode – The Final Seal of the Silent Wheel – Forgetting All Realms – "The Initial Narrative of Cause and Effect"
Boom!!!
While the Source-Extinguishing Divine Sword was defending, the Azure Ring suddenly unfolded its full-ring structure, embedding the concept of "Qin Yu" into the "fundamental cause of the Source-Extinguishing Divine Sword's existence"!
It's not that the sword "recognizes the person," but rather that Azure Ring, using absolute narrative logic, redefines Qin Yu as "the host of the Source-Extinguishing Divine Sword"!
The Annihilation space roared, the Purple Star Altar shattered, and the nine Soul-Locking Chains snapped off from around the sword hilt!
The sword trembled violently, and its crimson light, like a burning river of souls, instantly pierced into Qin Yu's soul platform!
"Ah!!!"
The intense pain caused all the souls within Qin Yu's body to tremble, and the Five Souls, Three Platforms, and Nine Locks were simply unable to bear it!
"Hold on--"
The Azure Ring unleashed its final, primal stabilizing wave, finally imprinting the sword's core essence upon itself.
"Origin Destroyer Ten Severance Forms - Binding to the Natal Soul"
Forcibly imprinted into Qin Yu's soul!
At this moment, a deep, abyss-like crimson-black sword imprint appeared in Qin Yu's sea of consciousness, with seven blood-red halos revolving endlessly around its center.
The entire "Abyss of Origin Destruction" collapsed with a roar, and Qin Yu slowly opened his eyes.
He stood there, and the ancient, jet-black sword hovered silently in front of his right hand.
With a gentle grasp, the heavens and earth trembled.
"From now on..."
"Origin Destroyer, for it is my Qin Yu's sword."
Qin Yu in the void Ruin Abyss, his hand tightly gripping the World Extinguisher sword, Origin Destroyer, which had just been fused into his soul.
The sword was icy cold, like an ancient monument in the dead.
The black sword remained devoid of light, but the moment Qin Yu gripped it, he felt an extremely pure suppressive force—not directed at the enemy, but at the very cause and effect of the existence of all things.
He took a deep breath, slowly stored the divine sword in his mind, and sat down cross-legged.
The sea of consciousness trembled, the Azure Ring disappeared into the Soul Platform, but the divine sword was not completely silent.
It responded to him proactively.
An ancient, whispering voice, like the whispers of a world collapsing, emerged from the depths of his consciousness.
"I am -- the Origin Destroyer."
"Born before Unborn, cut down after cause."
" From the Beginningless, I was the first transgressor of the Yuanji logic."
Time has no right to record me, order cannot depict me, and cause and effect cannot sustain my form.
Therefore, all spirits call me: The World Extinguisher Divine Sword - Origin Destroyer.
Qin Yu slowly opened his eyes, and though shocked, he already understood.
"You... are the source of that mirror's 'reflection'?"
"That mirror was one of the fragments that fell into the world when I was first born, and it remained unawakened because it reflected my true form."
"You rewrote 'Reflection' with your azure divine power, thus guiding my thoughts back to the source."
It turns out that everything stems from the sword's inherent ability to "project existence," and the mirror is merely an extension of its fragments!
Qin Yu's heart was surging with emotion. If Azure Ring hadn't forcibly "embedded into the essence" for him, he would no longer exist at this moment!
This is no ordinary divine weapon.
This is an Ultimate instrument of destruction, possessing the power to deny destiny, rewrite the logic of existence, and reject observation!
Ten Severed Souls Manifestation - Sword Intent Enters the Body
Just as Qin Yu's mind was in turmoil, a series of blood-red rings suddenly appeared in his sea of consciousness.
The seal of the Source-Extinguishing Divine Sword rotated and unfolded on his soul platform.
One layer, two layers, three layers... until ten layers of crimson rings appeared, eventually converging into pages of void inscriptions, floating like epitaphs at the center of his soul consciousness.
His heart trembled slightly as he recognized the true names of the ten divine techniques—
Ten Divine Techniques: Origin Destroyer - Ten Severing Forms
1. Sever the Void in a Single Thought
By severing the enemy's "thoughts and the possibility of their existence," the enemy is directly erased from the world's memory.
2. The Sever the Cause, Preventing Birth.
Erasure all causal origins of the enemy, ensuring that their cultivation, background, and bloodline never occurred.
3. Sever the Epoch Without a Trace
To completely erase the enemy from all eras and timelines, leaving no record or legend.
4. Sever Fate, Cut Off Return
Completely deny the enemy any possibility of rebirth, reincarnation, or resurrection; death is the final severance.
5. Sever the Soul in Nine Silences
The enemy's soul is peeled away in nine layers, and even if there are three thousand divine souls, they are all annihilated and cannot be reconstructed.
6. Sever the Realm, Leaving No Name
The enemy and the world they inhabited were erased from existence, their names and boundaries erased, and all worlds ceased to acknowledge their existence.
7. The Sever the Spirit Source Abyss
Cut off all sources of power for the enemy (divine blood, talent, and techniques), instantly reducing them to mortals.
8. Sever the Main Narrative
Severing the enemy's "protagonist identity", the plot will henceforth have no other name, and the world will no longer pay attention.
9. Sever Observation, Leaving No Mirror
Denying the possibility that the enemy can be "perceived" by any life form or rule, thus plunging into a state of "existential death."
10. The Source Silence Severs All.
The Ultimate sword strike annihilates both the enemy and the "reason for existence" itself, causing them to be completely obliterated in language, concepts, and logic.
The Source-Extinguishing Ten Severings only slay enemies Qin Yu has in mind; those not even considered will remain untouched.
