The moment the Three Sovereigns forcibly suppressed the tremors of their Fate Soul from afar, they could no longer bear it. A roar that nearly tore through the void erupted simultaneously—"Master!!!!" The three figures disregarded their own unhealed cracks; the Light of the End, the Remnants of the Dao of Annihilation, and the Seal of Annihilation surged forth in unison. They almost sacrificed their Fate Soul to forcibly interrupt the repair process.
Transforming into three streaks of light that tore through the heavens and earth, they instantly spanned tens of thousands of feet, directly blocking Qin Yu's path. The Void Finality Saint Emperor raised his hand to unleash a tattered forbidden domain, the Primordial Dao-Extinguishing True Emperor forcibly flipped through the ancient scroll fragments on his chest, and the Eternal Annihilation Heavenly Emperor's brow split open with the Abyss of Annihilation. The three overlapped to form a precarious yet still supporting barrier that held up the heavens and earth.
Qin Yu didn't hesitate at all. His consciousness hadn't fully recovered from the aftershocks of the Emberless Mirror collapsing, but he had already raised his hand and torn open the storage crystal core. A thousand Supreme Transformation Source Crystal poured out like a galaxy.
He swallowed it whole, and the primordial cores that had condensed into "Tai Wu Bian" exploded within his body. Silvery-white light spread wildly along the cracks in his shattered Fate Soul, as if countless invisible hands were forcibly piecing together his collapsing existence. His bloodline and Fate Soul resonated simultaneously, and Qin Yu regained his footing amidst violent tremors, his eyes once again igniting with an indomitable light.
Watching this scene, the coldness on the corner of the Stillness Soul Divine Radiance's lips finally turned into a genuine mockery. It shook its head slightly, as if watching a struggle destined to end. "Hmph, not bad at all, actually able to withstand two of my divine abilities... Then let it end here."
It slowly raised the divine halberd, and at that moment, the heavens and earth ceased to tremble, but instead became completely silent.
The divine halberd pointed straight to the heavens, its tail sinking into the deepest part of the void, as if penetrating some unknowable primordial level. The Stillness Soul Divine Radiance gripped the halberd shaft with both hands, his eyes closed. In that instant, a pure black Dao pattern slowly emerged from the deepest part of the halberd—it wasn't a color...
Rather, it was the "Wuhen" left behind after all colors were negated. As soon as that pattern appeared, the Fate Soul of all living beings within a hundred miles felt lighter, as if they had been stripped of their weight. Even the Three Sovereigns swayed for a moment, and a slight "crackling" sound came from the depths of their sea of consciousness.
"Divine Halberd - The End of the Soul Path." There was no wind, no light, only the instant when "the rules were rewritten," as the divine halberd slowly cleaved down.
At that moment, it was as if the world's most fundamental law had been rewritten—"The soul is not allowed to exist."
Qin Yu, Xiao Yue, and the Three Emperors all heard a "crack" from the depths of their Fate Soul at the same instant.
It wasn't the sound from the outside world, but the sound of the "soul structure" breaking.
Qin Yu's consciousness suddenly froze. He could clearly feel the foundation of his existence being stripped away. It wasn't an attack, but a denial—his memories, will, emotions, and all the pillars that defined "I am me."
It began to fade layer by layer from the deepest depths. Xiao Yue suddenly shuddered on his shoulder, the star trails in her star-blue eyes almost instantly freezing. For the first time, she revealed genuine fear. "Little Qinzi... it's rewriting the soul itself..."
The three emperors froze simultaneously. The light of the end of the Void Finality Saint Emperor suddenly lost its foundation, the ancient scroll on the Primordial Dao-Extinguishing True Emperor instantly turned to blank, and the Abyss of Annihilation of the Eternal Annihilation Heavenly Emperor actually had a "break" at that moment, as if even Annihilation itself had lost its support.
The four were completely locked in a stalemate. The divine halberd continued to fall, with no further obstruction; it would only take a breath.
Their souls will be completely erased from "existence," and at that very moment, Xiao Yue's body suddenly trembled.
It was not attacked by external forces, but rather that something more fundamental and deeper was forcibly awakened.
Her previously dim star core emblem suddenly lit up, and an unprecedented blue light burst forth from her chest. The blue light didn't radiate outwards, but rather contracted inwards, like a mirror slowly solidifying deep within her Fate Soul. Her pupils snapped open.
The original clear blue sapphire color completely collapsed, transforming into a deep starry sky mirror, in which countless soul shadows flashed simultaneously—birth and death, reincarnation, projection, afterimages, all "forms of soul existence" were seen by her in that instant.
She murmured softly, her voice carrying an ancient echo she herself had never possessed, "So that's how it is... The soul is not a single point... but a superposition of countless dimensions..."
The next moment, her aura completely changed. "Blue Ring, Third Form - Soul Mirror Annihilation."
Boom! Boom! Boom! The heavens and earth suddenly shattered.
A colossal, immeasurable blue soul mirror was "manifested" from the depths of the void. It was not a projection, but a real existence that directly spanned time and space. The mirror surface was as smooth as Stainless water, yet it reflected countless distorted soul shadows— the True Soul of the Stillness Soul Divine Radiance, multiple projections, residual marks, and future backups, all of which were forcibly projected at this moment.
The "End of the Soul Path" decree that the divine halberd struck down paused for the first time the instant it touched the mirror.
It wasn't blocked, but rather reflected back along the same path.
The underlying rewriting of "deleting the soul" was completely replicated in the Soul Mirror, and then reversed in the same way. In the mirror, countless soul shadows of the Stillness Soul Divine Radiance simultaneously showed signs of being erased, and its usually indifferent gray-white pupils trembled violently for the first time.
"What--!" For the first time, its voice carried a tremor. Inside the Soul Mirror, the image began to shatter wildly.
A series of blue light vortexes burst forth from the depths of the mirror, engulfing all the projected soul shadows within them, devouring, tearing, and erasing them, along with all projections and resurrection marks in time and space, crushing them all.
The power of the divine halberd that had already cleaved down collapsed at that moment.
No explosion = no recoil, it was as if it had never been established, the Divine Halberd - Soul Path ended, completely shattered.
Within the blue mirror, the remaining soul shadows emitted a mournful yet silent wail before turning into annihilated fragments of blue light that scattered into the void.
Xiao Yue stood before the mirror, her figure small, yet she seemed to be the sole sovereign who controlled the birth and death of all souls. At that moment, her aura was no longer just that of the "Blue Ring Spirit," but had touched upon a higher level of the origin of the soul path.
Qin Yu stood behind her, his Fate Soul, though damaged, had been stabilized. The Three Sovereigns slowly regained consciousness, and the Stillness Soul Divine Radiance —for the first time, was forced back a step.
At that moment, the Stillness Soul Divine Radiance went completely berserk. Its figure, which had been suspended high in the sky, suddenly became infinitely profound, like a drop of grayish-white soul liquid falling into the eternal night. In an instant, it bent the light and shadow in the deepest part of the Limitless Final Abyss. The divine halberd in its hand emitted a sharp sound that was neither metal nor stone. The sound was not piercing, but it made the Fate Soul within a radius of ten thousand miles feel a needle-like chill.
As if some higher level of Annihilation was being slowly revealed, the gray-white dead lake in its pupils suddenly split open, and two Ultimate cold soul lights, like Eternal Silence falling from the sky, pierced straight into the depths of the ancient war ruins and the Void Evolution Layer. Even the remaining bloodlines of those inheritances that had not yet fully awakened beneath the earth were pressed down and trembled slightly. It opened its mouth and roared, its voice layered upon layer.
Like the last sigh before the end of countless eras being awakened at the same time, it resounded at the ends of heaven and earth. "You, accept true Annihilation!" As these words fell, the surrounding space began to peel away in pieces, and the causal threads snapped in bundles. Even the Three Sovereigns, who were still healing, were shaken by this sound, and their chests heaved violently, and their injuries almost backfired.
Xiao Yue, perched on Qin Yu's shoulder, was still churning with the primal energy of her forced comprehension of the three forms of the Blue Ring. Seeing the increasingly terrifying aura of the Stillness Soul Divine Radiance, her face tightened instantly, and she cried out urgently, "Little Qinzi, quickly take them away! I've only just comprehended the third form; I can't withstand it!"
Without the slightest hesitation, Qin Yu drew his left hand, and the causal power of the Three Forms of Fate Construction instantly intertwined at his fingertips, forming a crack that stretched across the void. He intended to drag the Three Emperors and Xiao Yue into another branch of causality, but just as this causal crack opened, the Stillness Soul Divine Radiance coldly smiled, his gray-white gaze pressing down from afar, as if the entire world was being clenched by an invisible hand.
Qin Yu, the Three Emperors, and Xiao Yue were completely nailed to mid-air; space ceased to flow, time ceased to extend, and all escape routes simultaneously lost their meaning. The Stillness Soul Divine Radiance raised his divine halberd; the Dao patterns on the blade extinguished layer by layer, then slowly lit up from a deeper depth. What lit up was not color, but an absolute mark of cessation that even "color" itself could not contain.
It chuckled coldly, "Hmph, still trying to leave?" In the next instant, it gripped the halberd shaft with both hands, the tip pointing to the sky and the butt striking the ground. All its soul light, solitude, and Annihilation Structure essence converged into a pure black pattern deep within the halberd. That pattern, like a crack gently etched into the deepest part of the universe, slowly, steadily, and irreversibly spread outwards, and the entire divine halberd began to "melt."
The halberd blade first became transparent, then blurred, until finally only the concept of a "halberd" remained suspended before it, as if the physical object had been sacrificed, leaving only the killing intent. A voice, incomprehensible to anyone, then echoed in the void, like the final tremor of heaven and earth at the end of the last cosmic era. "The Tao is not the Tao, nor is the eternal Tao; the name is not the name, nor is the eternal name. All Existence Return to the Ruins, and even nothingness is nothingness; beneath Eternal Silence, there is no more life."
Accompanied by that ancient sound, a tiny "nothingness," smaller than a speck of dust, was born before the halberd. It then silently exploded, and an almost invisible, transparent ripple quietly spread out. This ripple had no speed, yet it was already waiting ahead for anything that might try to escape.
Wherever it passed, the sky lost its "height and vastness," the earth lost its "support," and living beings lost their basis for being "living." Even the ancient battle rifts behind the Three Sovereigns, which had not yet healed, were losing their definition in large swaths, as if the entire spacetime was being completely erased from the bottom up.
Just as the Ultimate wave of Annihilation spread towards Qin Yu and the others, the sea of stars in Xiao Yue's eyes finally trembled violently. The three forms of the Blue Ring that she had hastily comprehended earlier were pushed to their peak once again with all her might. Her hands suddenly formed a seal, the time engravings on her starlight boots instantly shone Ultimate, and the square star core badge on her chest burst forth with a huge blue moon halo.
The entire air transformed into mirror-like soul waves, and Qin Yu could even clearly hear a near-tearful shout from the depths of her Fate Soul: "Blue Ring, Third Form—Soul Mirror Annihilation!" As the words fell, a massive blue mirror covering the sky was forcibly dragged out of nothingness. The mirror did not reflect light and shadow, but rather the Stillness Soul Divine Radiance and resurrection marks hidden deep within time, space, cause and effect, and the Fate Soul of the Silent Soul Divine Radiance Halberd.
Countless afterimages of Stillness Soul Divine Radiance displaying their supernatural powers at different levels appeared in the mirror. The images twisted, overlapped, and shattered, then the entire mirror image resembled an inverted black hole in a starry sea, carrying an annihilation vortex that tore apart all the soul images, and crashed head-on into the transparent ripple of "Eternal Silence - Ten Thousand Daos Return to the Ruins." In that instant, the world finally heard a sound; a soul-piercing howl, almost tearing the soul apart, suddenly exploded from the depths of the mirror.
As if countless souls were wailing simultaneously, the boundary where the Blue Mirror and the Ruins of Return to the Ruins touched bent wildly, and the void was torn into layers of thin, cicada-wing-like fragments. Broken towers, ruined cities, and charred mountain bones in the distant ancient battlefields were successively lifted into the sky, only to be pulverized into dust before they fell. Countless souls of the Stillness Soul Divine Radiance in the mirror were simultaneously devoured, stripped, and crushed. For a moment, even the gray-white pupils of the Stillness Soul Divine Radiance form showed a violent tremor.
But Xiao Yue had only just grasped this technique. The blue mirror held on for a moment before fine cracks began to appear on the entire mirror. The cracks spread rapidly from the center to all directions. The blue light swayed, the soul howls went out of tune, and the image in the mirror was crushed in the opposite direction by the ripples of the Return to the Ruins before it could be completely annihilated.
Xiao Yue's face suddenly turned pale, and a trickle of blood immediately escaped from the corner of her lips. She gritted her teeth to keep the mirror from shattering, but the ripples were already pressing in from the center of the mirror. The next instant, the huge blue mirror exploded with a deafening roar, and countless blue soul fragments swept back like a meteor shower. Xiao Yue was as if she had been hit head-on by an invisible giant mountain, and was blasted away on the spot. Her star-blue hair scattered into chaotic streaks of light in mid-air.
The petite figure tumbled dozens of times before Qin Yu forcibly pulled her back with the Thread of Cause and Effect, barely preventing her from falling into the fault line smoothed out by the Return to the Ruins. Qin Yu and the Three Emperors, however, did not have such a buffer. The residual force of their divine powers breaking through to the next level directly pressed down on the deepest part of their Fate Soul. Qin Yu felt his sea of consciousness suddenly go black, Supreme Eternal Stillness Seal instantly lost its luster. The Three Emperors simultaneously groaned.
The Fate Soul that had just been stabilized was once again pushed to the brink of collapse. The Origin of the End on the chest of the Void Finality Saint Emperor seemed to have been sliced off by an invisible knife. The ancient scroll fragments on the chest of the Primordial Dao-Extinguishing True Emperor dimmed, and the Dao Seal above the head of the Eternal Annihilation Heavenly Emperor shook violently, almost being forced back to the weak state before receiving the inheritance. The transparent ripples continued to approach.
Qin Yu, Xiao Yue, and the Three Emperors were all trapped in mid-air, completely at an impasse. They were just one step away from being crushed into "absolute non-existence" along with the entire space-time beneath their feet by that final strike.
It was precisely in this narrow passage that an Ultimate intense beam of light suddenly tore through the deepest part of the Limitless Final Abyss. The light arrived with incredible speed, so fast that even the transparent ripples didn't have time to expand before it was pierced head-on. The entire "Eternal Silence - Ten Thousand Daos Return to the Ruins" exploded from its center like a thin sheet of paper pierced by heavenly fire. Countless fragments of spacetime that had been partially erased were forcibly pinned back to their original positions within that light.
The heavens and earth resounded with a deafening roar, and the forces of cause and effect surged once more. Even the wind that had been frozen in mid-air suddenly resumed its breath. The divine halberd of the Stillness Soul Divine Radiance trembled violently, and he was forced back several steps by the light. For the first time, true horror was revealed in his gray-white eyes.
Immediately afterwards, an ancient yet supremely majestic voice slowly emanated from behind the light, like an ancient celestial law striking down once more across the myriad realms. "Insolence! How dare a mere Origin Divine Huang dare to act so presumptuously again?"
As the voice faded, a colossal phantom slowly emerged from the light. The phantom possessed a thousand hands and arms, each holding a different object: hammer, ruler, knife, needle, wood, stone, fire, iron, grass stems, broken pieces of wood... It seemed as if the source of all the arts and creations in the universe was rotating in his palms.
His body was covered in calluses and scars, yet he showed no sign of decay. Instead, he exuded an aura of profound skill and divine authority, as if those crisscrossing scars were divine relics left behind after mending the heavens and forging souls for all realms.
Standing before Qin Yu and the Three Emperors, even as a remnant phantom, He had already restored order to the entire world. The Eternal Annihilation Heavenly Emperor's eyes widened the moment he saw the figure, and he almost cried out, "It's the Ancestor... it's the Ancestor! The Heavenly Craft Mystic Arts Ancestral God!"
His shout caused both the Void Finality Saint Emperor and the Primordial Dao-Extinguishing True Emperor to tremble simultaneously. Their eyes first widened in disbelief, followed by a tremor that was almost a mixture of ecstasy and reverence.
Qin Yu helped Xiao Yue, who had been blasted back and was breathing heavily, and looked up at the illusory figure of the Ancestral God with a thousand hands and a thousand arms. For the first time in this battle, he truly breathed a sigh of relief—because what stood in front of them was no longer just a helper, but the existence that could truly suppress this final battle in the entire Limitless Final Abyss.
