Hua Yin slowly raised his right hand, and strands of gray-gold Dao patterns continuously appeared in his palm.
Those Dao patterns had no fixed shape, yet they were like billions of logical threads intertwined, each containing a principle of the Great Dao. They did not release any earth-shattering pressure, but they gradually plunged the entire world into an eerie silence.
The wind stopped, the bamboo leaves floated in mid-air, and even a leaf slowly drifting down from afar stopped less than three inches from the ground, unable to fall any further. Hua Yin slowly opened his eyes, and within those eyes, countless Dao patterns seemed to be constantly evolving. He spoke softly, "Boy."
"You were able to kill Hua Lingxi, which means your strength is enough to make me take you seriously." "This move," "can be considered my greeting gift to you." With that, he slowly clenched his five fingers, and a deep, resounding boom suddenly echoed throughout the entire world.
The first divine power of the Hua Lineage's Great Dao of Logic -- Logic Reconstruction: The World of Change.
This technique does not attack the physical body, but rather rewrites the entire operating logic of the space where the target is located. It transforms the local world into an unfinished Daoist scripture, rearranging the relationships between space, time, cause and effect, and origin according to the caster's will, thus rendering all the order that the enemy originally perceived invalid.
Once inside the range of the supernatural power, spatial orientation can be interchanged at any time, the flow of time can be reversed or forwarded, cause and effect can be interchanged, and even the trajectory of an attack will be given a different "reasonable" result just before it hits.
The more an enemy relies on their own experience and supernatural powers, the easier it is for them to fall into the reconstructed logical maze, which is specifically designed to counter cultivators who rely on swordsmanship, origin deduction, and causal evolution. This is because they trust their own judgment, and the Logic Reconstruction: World of Changes is precisely the one that alters the very foundation of "judgment being valid."
As Hua Yin's voice fell, countless crisscrossing gray-gold patterns suddenly appeared above the ancient house. These patterns continued to extend outward, hundreds of feet, thousands of feet, tens of thousands of feet. Finally, the entire night sky resembled a huge ancient scroll, slowly unfurled by a pair of invisible hands. The stars began to move, and the full moon began to reverse.
The bamboo forest in the distance seemed to shift positions visibly, and an ancient house instantly transformed into a labyrinth of overlapping worlds. The ground beneath Qin Yu's feet suddenly flipped, the sky fell to his feet, and the ground rose above his head, before returning to normal. Then, what was in front became behind him, what was to his left became the future, and what was to his right became the past.
The entire space no longer had any fixed direction. Even the Fate Soul's perception began to show chaotic ripples. This scene was like an extremely magnificent primordial epic. Heaven and earth kept folding and space kept rolling. Hundreds of millions of gray-gold logic threads shuttled back and forth between heaven and earth, like a writer rewriting the entire world.
However, faced with such a change, Qin Yu did not immediately draw his sword. He simply closed his eyes slowly, and in the next instant, deep within his sea of consciousness, the Nine-Wheel True Evolution Dharma Wheel simultaneously began to rotate slowly. The Silent Beginning Ring Master Soul Diagram fully unfolded, and the nine ancient Dharma Wheels interlocked with each other. Paths of Fate Soul patterns continuously spread from the center of the Dharma Wheels, and the entire sea of consciousness instantly transformed into boundless chaos.
Before Qin Yu's eyes, countless Fate Soul trajectories began to emerge. Every thread of logic in the space slowly appeared in the deduction of the Ring Master Soul Diagram. The originally chaotic gray-gold Dao patterns gradually revealed their true arrangement. Qin Yu did not attack.
He simply observed quietly, observing how each logic was formed, why each spatial change was valid, and how each cause and effect was connected to each other. Seeing this, Hua Yin's lips slowly curled up. "Give up?" "Or..." "You can no longer understand my Great Dao?" Qin Yu still did not open his eyes.
He simply said calmly, "Your Great Dao." "Interesting." Hua Yin smiled. "Since that's the case..." "Why haven't you drawn your sword yet? Are you just standing here waiting to die?" Qin Yu slowly opened his eyes. Countless Fate Soul patterns were constantly flowing in his eyes. He looked at Hua Yin.
The voice remained calm. "Because..." "Your supernatural power is not truly complete yet." "Too early to break through." Hua Yin's brows finally furrowed slightly. Qin Yu continued, "Your so-called Logic Reconstruction..." "Is not a true reconstruction of the Great Dao."
"Instead, you're constantly rearranging the existing logical chains of heaven and earth." "In other words," "You're not creating new logic, you're just constantly exchanging the positions of existing logic. Every spatial transformation must connect through the same point of origin of Fate Soul."
"That's the only part of your entire divine power that won't change." Hua Yin's pupils suddenly contracted. "You..." Qin Yu gently raised the Silent Origin Stainless Sword. The tip of the sword slowly pointed to a very inconspicuous spot in the void. "You've been hiding it all along." "Unfortunately."
"What you see in the Ring Master Soul Diagram is never space, but the Fate Soul. Any logic must rely on the Fate Soul Evolution. As long as the Fate Soul continues, logic will not truly be disordered. And that is precisely the biggest flaw in your entire logical chain."
Hua Yin fell silent for the first time, a serious look finally appearing in his eyes. "No wonder..." "Hua Lingxi lost." "You truly..." "Able to see through the Great Dao." Qin Yu replied calmly, "Not see through." "Just..." "Understand."
As the two were talking, no one noticed that beneath the ground around the ancient house, countless dark gold life patterns that had been buried for a long time suddenly lit up simultaneously. There was no sound, no strange phenomena in the heavens and earth, only countless fine, hair-like lines of cause and effect slowly rising from the ground, intertwining with each other.
They connected to each other, forming a huge Fate Ring covering the entire ancient house. The next moment, with a soft hum, the entire space trembled, the bamboo forest disappeared, and the night sky vanished. Everything outside the ancient house was completely isolated as if by an invisible curtain. The Slaughter and Cause-Trapping Formation was now completely closed.
Hua Yin's expression suddenly changed. He abruptly turned his head to look around, his divine sense spreading wildly. However, his Fate Soul perception, which could originally cover hundreds of thousands of miles, could not even reach a hundred feet away from the ancient house. The world was completely sealed off. Only at this moment did Hua Yin finally react. He slowly raised his head and looked at Qin Yu again. For the first time, true shock appeared in his eyes.
"So..." "From the moment I stepped into this place," "I was already caught in your trap." Qin Yu simply smiled. "Now," "this battle is going unnoticed and uninterrupted."
Hua Yin's eyes slanted upwards, a hint of undisguised disdain flashing across them. He swept his gaze over Qin Yu from top to bottom, a cold smile slowly rising at the corners of his lips.
"You have truly impressed me." He clapped his hands lightly, his voice slow and deep.
"To be able to see through my first logical divine ability and to set up a magic array in advance to lure me here, your temperament, methods, and talent are among the rarest in the entire Eternal Nonexistence Limitless Domain." He then said this.
Hua Yin slowly shook his head, his contempt growing stronger. "But..." "You think you can defeat me with just these things?" "Your understanding of the Great Dao is merely superficial."
As soon as he finished speaking, Hua Yin slowly closed his eyes. In the next instant, a gray-gold Dao pattern, even more ancient than before, slowly emerged from the depths of his Fate Soul's origin. At this moment, there was no earth-shattering pressure, no world-destroying fluctuations. Instead, the entire ancient house became even quieter, so quiet that even Qin Yu frowned slightly.
Hua Yin slowly extended a finger and gently pointed at Qin Yu. "Today," he said, "I will show you what the true -- Great Dao Rules and Logic is." The second divine power of the Hua Lineage's Great Dao of Logic -- Fate Sequence Reverse Writing and Changing the Source of Cause and Effect.
This secret technique has no intention of altering the laws of the world; it only points directly to the depths of Fate Soul, reshaping its innate order of cause and effect. It will not shatter the Fate Soul, nor will it harm the physical body; it merely rearranges the causes, effects, origins, and order that the soul is entangled in throughout its life.
By reversing the timeline, turning past events into the future and the future into the distant past, Qin Yu's lifelong foundation of Dao was instantly stripped of its original cause-and-effect relationship.
Once supernatural powers are applied to a human body, the causal chains entangled in Qin Yu's Fate Soul will be forcibly reconstructed and reversed. The profound understanding of the Great Dao accumulated through a lifetime of arduous cultivation may be greatly regressed in an instant; the power of the spells just unleashed will have its outcome completely reversed after the cause and effect are altered; even the thought of wielding a sword in one's heart can be altered before the sword is drawn.
This technique is naturally effective against those who specialize in cultivating the Dao of Fate Soul. The more powerful and profound a being's life Fate Soul are, the more complete and intricate the causal networks that reside within them will be, and the more vast and expansive the Dao order that this technique can reshape will become.
The secret technique was activated with a thunderous roar! A deafening boom reverberated throughout the eight directions, and the entire world suddenly lost its radiance. It was not the arrival of night, but rather the rapid dissolution and complete disappearance of all colors of heaven and earth.
Beneath Qin Yu's feet, a gray-gold patterned Fate Ring slowly rose and appeared, followed by the emergence of the second, third, and fourth rings in succession... In the blink of an eye, ninety-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine Fate Ring, each carrying the logic of cause and effect, layered upon each other, firmly trapping Qin Yu in the center of the ring array.
Within each Fate Ring, a different Qin Yu is reflected: his youth, his early days of cultivation, his Realm Breaking Realm, and even countless unrealized possibilities of the future. These figures simultaneously open their eyes and then walk step by step toward the real Qin Yu.
With each step he took, Qin Yu felt subtle changes occurring in the trajectory of the Great Dao within his Fate Soul. The circulation of his inner essence began to slow down. Deep within his Fate Soul, he faintly sensed a reversal of the Great Dao's flow. Qin Yu's expression finally turned serious. "Directly rewriting the cause and effect of his Fate Soul..." he murmured. "Indeed, it's several times stronger than the First Divine Power."
