Hua Jingmeng Shatters the Seal in One Move
At the final arena, Hua Jingmeng stood in the center, the gray and desolate Azure Nether Dao-Adjudicating Seal already approaching him, only a few feet away from his brow.
At this moment, the Myriad Worlds Graveyard was shrouded in a suffocating silence. Countless gazes were fixed on it, and everyone held their breath, waiting to see how Hua Jingmeng Ju Gongchen's core Dao divine power passed down through generations of the Ju Lineage.
Even cultivators at the Eternal Silence Realm would change color upon seeing this Dao Seal. But Hua Jingmeng merely raised her eyes, glanced at the ancient seal, and a faint hint of disdain appeared in her eyes.
This demeanor was not one of arrogance or contempt, but rather the confident composure that arises from reaching the pinnacle of one's own path.
"The Azure Nether Dao-Adjudicating Seal?" Hua Jingmeng's voice was soft and clear, neither too loud nor too soft, yet it pierced through the deep Daoist rhyme and landed in everyone's ears.
"The Ju Lineage's way has indeed touched upon the boundaries of the definition of existence."
He slightly raised his eyes to meet the slowly descending gray-white ancient seal, and his tone shifted slightly. "It's just a pity that you are still fixated on the idea that there is a need to find a definitive answer."
Having said that, Hua Jingmeng slowly opened her palms, palms facing upwards, and held them suspended in mid-air. "But the true path is never confined to a single answer."
Boom! A vast and boundless power surged forth from his body, completely different from the deconstruction judgment of the Primordial Annihilation Structure.
It possesses neither the power of destruction nor the chill of Annihilation, nor the domineering authority to judge all things.
Only through continuous flow and constant change can countless new possibilities emerge and spread endlessly.
The Grand Void Dao Transformation Art was activated, and in an instant, the void surrounding Hua Jingmeng, spanning a hundred feet, was turned upside down.
The originally solid and real space gradually became hazy and indistinct. Thousands of laws and light and shadows alternated and surged between heaven and earth, and all kinds of colors, such as blue, red, silver, white, deep, and golden, flowed endlessly, weaving together into a hazy sea of light.
His figure also became hazy and indistinct, not because his form and spirit dissipated, but because his state of existence was constantly changing and shifting.
One moment he seemed like a great master who controlled the eternal void; the next he transformed into a wisp of Qingfeng that could not be found; and in the blink of an eye, he dissolved into a shapeless mass of chaotic light.
A strange, indescribable feeling arose in the hearts of all the onlookers. Although their eyes could clearly see that Hua Jingmeng was standing there, no one could accurately describe what he looked like or what his presence was at that moment.
On the high platform, Nangong Xingyun's eyes narrowed slightly as he murmured, "The Grand Void Dao Transformation Art... uses infinite transformations to break free from all predetermined definitions."
A hint of surprise flashed across Nalan Yanqing's eyes as he continued, "The Azure Nether Dao-Adjudicating Seal must first lock onto the target's anchor point before it can make a judgment. But its very existence is constantly changing."
In the four directions of the sky, the four Source Dao Ultimate Beast Huang finally lowered their gazes and focused intently on the battle on the arena.
Within that indescribable void rift in the Boundless Abyss Huang South, a barely perceptible ripple of Daoist energy arose.
The endless web of possibilities surrounding Wanyan Huang in the north trembled gently, and countless branches of destiny unfolded together. Countless distinct Hua Jingmeng appeared one by one within the web, each possessing its own unique Dao Path, choices, and form of existence.
Wanyan Huang's deep voice echoed across the Myriad Worlds Graveyard: "Interesting. He is not avoiding definitions, but rather transforming himself into infinite possibilities."
In the midst of this conversation, the Azure Nether Dao-Adjudicating Seal pressed down close, and with a deafening boom, all sounds in the world fell silent.
The gray-white Dao seal pressed down, freezing all the surrounding laws. Time, space, cause and effect, existence—all were firmly locked by the power of judgment. According to common sense, any living being struck by this attack would only be able to passively endure the judgment of the Great Dao.
But when the Azure Nether Dao-Adjudicating Seal collided with the Great Void halo surrounding Hua Jingmeng, an unbelievable scene unfolded. There was no earth-shattering explosion, no turbulent collision of laws and principles, Does Not Exist direct clash between forces.
That ancient seal, symbolizing the end and judgment, slowly sank into that ever-flowing sea of light, like a boulder thrown into an endless ocean, silent and without a trace.
Ju Gongchen's pupils suddenly contracted, his heart churning with shock. "Impossible."
He sensed clearly that the Azure Nether Dao-Adjudicating Seal had not missed its target; it had indeed touched Hua Jingmeng and activated its judgment power. However, the target it sought to judge was constantly changing.
The Dao Seal had just locked onto one form of existence when, in an instant, Hua Jingmeng transformed into another. It wanted to judge the present moment, but the present moment had already changed; it wanted to judge the origin, but the origin was constantly flowing; it wanted to judge existence, but existence had already transformed into countless possibilities.
Boom!
Suddenly, a vast ripple appeared in the void behind the arena, and the vanished gray-white Dao seal reappeared from the depths of the halo.
However, the Azure Nether Dao-Adjudicating Seal was no longer as majestic as before. The gray-white Dao patterns on the seal surface twisted and dissipated incessantly, and the judgment runes collapsed and peeled off on their own. It tried its best to analyze and judge Hua Jingmeng, but it could never keep up with the endless changes.
"Your Dao Seal can determine a fixed and unchanging existence," Hua Jingmeng said calmly, gently pointing a finger at the void. "But it cannot determine change itself."
Boom!!!
Suddenly, the Grand Void Domain around him erupted, with billions of streams of light soaring into the sky and spreading outwards, as if countless different Dao Path were unfolding and appearing at the same moment. Each ray of light was a brand new possibility, and each change was a rebirth.
The Azure Nether Dao-Adjudicating Seal, situated within endless flux, began to crack on its surface. One, two, three... the cracks spread rapidly throughout the seal's body.
With a deafening roar, the gray-white ancient seal shattered completely.
Countless tiny fragments floated in the void, then were slowly dissolved and assimilated by the power of the Great Void. The remaining will of judgment within the fragments also lost its support within the infinite changes and gradually returned to nothingness.
A deathly silence fell over the entire arena. The next instant, a deafening roar erupted. "The Azure Nether Dao-Adjudicating Seal... shattered just like that?"
"Hua Jingmeng actually shattered the Ju Lineage's most treasured inherited divine power!" "What kind of great Dao is this? Without even launching an attack, it rendered the opponent's divine power ineffective!"
On the Ju Lineage's viewing platform, everyone wore solemn expressions and heavy hearts. On the arena, Ju Gongchen stood motionless for a long time. For the first time, genuine shock appeared in his eyes as he looked at Hua Jingmeng.
He already knew that Hua Jingmeng was incredibly strong; she was no ordinary person, having overcome all obstacles to reach the final Ultimate. But he never expected that her cultivation had reached a level far beyond his expectations.
The Azure Nether Dao-Adjudicating Seal is the Ju Lineage's supreme technique of judgment, and among those of the same realm, very few can directly confront it. However, Hua Jingmeng did not use any offensive means; she merely relied on the transformation of her own Dao to render this divine power ineffective on its own.
Ju Gongchen slowly clenched his fists, his dormant fighting spirit blazing once more. "So that's how it is... This is the way of the Hua Lineage."
His voice was low and deep, carrying the sharp edge of a battle of wits. "It's not about denying the existence of the world, but about refusing to be bound by any definition."
Hua Jingmeng looked at him quietly, her expression still indifferent. "Now, do you still believe you have the right to stand here?"
Ju Gongchen remained silent for a moment, then suddenly smiled. His smile contained not a trace of resentment, only an increasingly fervent desire for battle. "Very well. It seems I have no choice but to reveal my true strength."
At the other end of the arena, Hua Jingmeng stood quietly. His dark robes fluttered in the wind, his face remaining calm and composed. Facing Ju Gongchen's surging and powerful aura, there was no trace of panic or emotion in his eyes. He simply gazed quietly at the world that was collapsing and rebuilding again and again.
He understood that Ju Gongchen had already abandoned all probing.
The Source Power of the Primordial Annihilation Structure is burning fiercely deep within its Fate Soul. At this moment, the Dao is no longer merely about constructing all things and rewriting rules, but rather about pushing the profound principle that "existence must have an anchor" to its Ultimate since ancient times.
In the blink of an eye, the entire final arena was turned upside down.
That independent battlefield, personally opened up by Nangong Xingyun, seemed to have been forcibly dragged back to the ancient era before the primordial chaos was formed. Above the sky, countless ancient Annihilation Structure ancient Dao patterns emerged one after another. Each pattern was the root and vein that connected the ages, engraving the entire trajectory of all things from birth to stability.
The earth suddenly cracked open, not with ordinary rock layers, but with the very foundation of the world's legal framework. Illusory mountains and rivers rose from the void, only to be redefined the instant they took shape.
Water flows upstream, stars revolve in reverse, and countless life forms are born and die rapidly in the void. Some are born and immediately Annihilation, while others, before even appearing in the world, are already endowed with complete past causes and effects.
The entire arena was completely transformed into Ju Gongchen's Primordial Annihilation Structure Domain.
He stood at the center of the domain, surrounded by countless ancient Dao patterns, his eyes reflecting the cycle of creation and Myriad Phenomena Return to the Ruins worlds. At this moment, Ju Gongchen seemed like an ancient Dao Venerable who held the incomplete scroll of World Creation.
He looked up at Hua Jingmeng, his deep voice resonating throughout the Annihilation Structure world. "Hua Jingmeng, your Grand Void Dao Transformation Art pursues the endless changes of all things." "But my Primordial Annihilation Structure seeks the return of all things to their origin." "You believe that heaven and earth can only exist through change."
"But in my opinion, only those things that have already stabilized and taken shape are qualified to talk about change." After saying this, Ju Gongchen slowly raised his right hand.
Within the palm of his hand, a deep and secluded crack slowly emerged. This crack was devoid of light and flame, displaying no power whatsoever, and not even a trace of Source Power energy leaked out. Yet, the moment it appeared, the Fate Soul of all the high-level experts within the Myriad Worlds Graveyard trembled slightly.
The four Source Dao Ultimate Beast Huang all opened their eyes that overlooked the ages.
The indescribable void rift in Boundless Abyss Huang slightly contracted inward; the endless web of possibilities surrounding Wanyan Huang suddenly froze for a moment; Mystic Deconstruction Huang's ever-evolving body paused for the first time in his life; as for the Nameless territory, all sounds around it melted away, falling into complete Ji Ran.
They all sensed that a weapon had awakened from the dust of time. It was an ancient weapon, bearing the very essence of slaughter, boom—
