The first cultivator's body rapidly became translucent at the edges, ethereal and unstable. Terrified, he desperately activated his True Annihilation Origin to resist, only to discover to his horror that the Great Dao principles he had painstakingly cultivated and refined over countless years...
It is actively separating and severing from its own Fate Soul. The foundation of the True Annihilation · Peak is the first to fade and dissipate, followed by the origin of the Fate Soul, past causes and effects, and life traces, all of which lose their present-day bearing and slowly dissolve.
"No!!!"
The piercing roar only lasted for half a breath before vanishing without a trace along with his existence.
The second cultivator's mind shattered, and he turned to flee, but the space around him had already been sealed by the power of the charter, completely detached from his existence. He clearly tried to run away, but he could never complete the "escape," his body was firmly imprisoned in place, and his foundation continued to crumble.
The third cultivator frantically summoned his personal divine weapon, attempting a desperate last stand. However, the causal connection between the weapon and himself broke first, causing the weapon to instantly slip out of his control and fall into the forest, never to return.
The remaining three all suffered the same supreme backlash. The more solid their foundation and the more closely they were bound to the laws of heaven and earth, the clearer the traces of the Dao traces of "Final Abolition and Establishment" became, and the more domineering and unsolvable the power of deposition and establishment became.
The golden chains of law suddenly tightened inward and snapped! Crack!!! The timeline, spatial coordinates, causal bonds, and Fate Soul foundation upon which the six relied for their existence all broke and became useless at the same moment.
Their bodies began to dissolve into fine, translucent gray traces from the edges. These traces neither drifted nor dispersed, but instead collapsed and dissolved inwards. Some had half a face remaining, their eyes filled with Ultimate terror; others reached out in vain to grasp at the last vestige of life, but the traces of their existence in their palms quickly faded and vanished into nothingness.
In the end, the bodies of the six once-powerful True Annihilation · Peak cultivators all collapsed into tiny, pitch-black dots, which hovered in the air for only a moment. The myriad orderly Dao patterns around them trembled slightly, the authority landed, and the constitution returned to its place.
Six black dots—completely corrected to blank by the order of the heavens, no corpses, no remnant souls, no cause and effect, Wuhen. The six masked cultivators at the True Annihilation Realm · Peak were thus utterly Annihilation, vanished without a trace for eternity.
The masked man in the golden robe in the distance was already terrified, his face drained of color and his soul nearly leaving his body. The moment Chi Qingyue raised her hand to cast her spell, he didn't dare wait for the magic to land or linger for even a second. He turned and fled abruptly.
Snap!!!
He forcibly tore a dark rift in the void in front of him with his life essence, and stepped into it without regard for anything else. His posture was flustered and disheveled, and he didn't even have the courage to look back. The rift in the void behind him closed rapidly, and his aura, traces, and all his marks instantly disappeared from the northern part of the Azure Wood Divine Forest.
This deadly trap of seven people came on strong but ended abruptly. All six Ultimate experts Annihilation, leaving only the leader to flee in panic.
In the heart of the forest, Chi Qingyue stood quietly, her posture upright and untouched by the hustle and bustle of the world.
At this moment, a crimson ancestral light slowly descended from the depths of the ancient seal between her brows, flowing down her nose and neck, permeating her limbs and bones, and completely merging with them. As her ancient ancestral bloodline fully awakened, her appearance, temperament, and overall aura underwent a tremendous transformation.
She still possessed the delicate beauty and slender figure of a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl, yet her aura exuded a vast, ancient, sacred, and majestic presence that transcended countless eras.
Her long, ink-black hair cascaded down like a waterfall, each strand flowing in a curve that conformed to the orderly order of heaven and earth, the ends of her hair tracing long, graceful lines in mid-air. Qingfeng blew through the forest, and the originally unruly and chaotic wind returned to its proper order, slowly swirling around her; the falling leaves also gently drifted down along orderly curves, all things following their own order.
Her appearance remained exquisitely beautiful and peerless, but between her brows, lips, and jawline, there was an added layer of orderly quality that encompassed the heavens, constant and dignified, majestic and restrained. From all directions, she appeared graceful and flawless, yet she retained subtle and lively variations, and no one could fully capture her charm.
The most complete transformation was still in those eyes.
The left eye flowed with a clear, silvery-white luster, like mercury turning slowly, reflecting the established laws of the heavens and the existing order of all things; the right eye was filled with a solidified pale golden radiance, with countless profound and ancient Dao patterns yet to appear in the world hidden within, concealing the primordial constitution of heaven and earth.
With each gentle blink, the myriad manifested law patterns around her would tremble and resonate softly, and twelve ancient rings of different materials would quietly appear on her ten fingers.
Black iron, glass, crystal bone, fragments of stars, polar ice crystals... Each ancient ring is made of a unique material, each carrying a subtle primordial law pattern, corresponding to a foundation of the Great Dao of the Heavens.
On the wrist, an ancient bracelet slowly appears, composed of billions of intricate logical chains interlocking and interlocking. Each link of the chain contains a complete and self-consistent causal proof, flowing with a cold and sacred radiance. With every slight movement, there is an orderly resonance.
Her robes, bathed in crimson ancestral light, shed their mortal quality, transforming into a simple, elegant, pure white robe. Faint golden ancient characters floated on the surface of the robe, each character carrying the constant Daoist intent of "it should be so, all laws shall follow it," circulating endlessly throughout her body with her breath.
The inner lining of her robe revealed countless fine, dark red patterns, recording the constants and fundamental laws upon which this world depends for its stability and eternal existence. Chi Qingyue slowly took half a step forward.
The moment the feet touched the ground, the entire space behind them instantly fell into absolute order, all disorder, variables, and chaos were silenced and sealed off. Three breaths later, the operation of heaven and earth and the changes of all things slowly returned to normal.
At this moment, Chi Qingyue's eternal true form, buried deep within her bloodline, finally revealed its first aspect to the world: she is a direct descendant of the Lord of the Great Dao Charter.
That supreme being from the ancient legends, who governs the order of the heavens and establishes the foundation of all laws, is the Father of Heavenly Laws, the Source of Order, and the supreme being whom all realms cannot defy.
Its bloodline, passed down through countless years, has finally awakened and manifested in Chi Qingyue today, bringing order to the world. The Great Dao of the Heavens can be changed, the rules of all laws can be borrowed, the cycle of reincarnation can be reversed, and the rise and fall of cause and effect can be shaped.
Before all things evolve and all laws operate, there must first be that initial, constant foundation—how this matter should be handled. The lineage of the Lord of the Great Dao Charter holds this supreme and ancient authority that determines all things, establishes all laws, and abolishes and establishes all heavens.
After the ancestral aura on Chi Qingyue's body slowly subsided, the northern part of the Azure Wood Divine Forest returned to silence. The six True Annihilation Realm · Peak had completely vanished without Wuhen. Only the broken ancient trees left by the violent tearing of their divine powers and the faint fluctuations of Fate Soul in the world remained.
Chi Qingyue did not stop where she was, nor did she pursue the masked man in golden robes who had already fled. She immediately turned around and strode towards where Shen Qingchen and Su Qingyuan were. The two were still lying among the thick, intertwined roots of the ancient trees.
Shen Qingchen leaned against a broken old root, his chest completely Blood Immersion. Although his breathing was still relatively steady, the essence of his Fate Soul was continuously and subtly cracking and his inner currents were in turmoil. Su Qingyuan's face was also pale and ashen, with traces of blood still remaining on the corners of her lips. Her mind was still clear, but her aura was several times weaker than usual, and her foundation was unstable.
Chi Qingyue knelt down, lightly placing two fingers on Shen Qingchen's wrist, and a delicate and pure wisp of Fate Soul perception quietly probed into his body. But as soon as her fingertips touched the deepest part of his Fate Soul, her brows furrowed slightly.
The injuries left by "Dao Tribulation Source Matchmaker" were far more dangerous and severe than what could be seen with the naked eye.
The final blow from the masked man in the golden robe was not merely a tearing apart of the flesh and damaging the surface of the Dao foundation; the chilling and treacherous power of annihilation had already eroded the two Fate Soul essence and core along the root of their souls.
Shen Qingchen's body has suffered multiple breaks in its vital energy channels, and the Dao principles he has accumulated through a lifetime of cultivation have become loose and unstable, damaging his foundation. Su Qingyuan's situation is equally dire.
She had already exhausted a huge amount of her source energy by activating "Dao Dissolution Heavenly Burial" before, and was then severely injured by "Dao Tribulation Source Matchmaker" which reversed the source of her Fate Soul. Several core life marks in her body that supported her cultivation are still slowly dimming and continuing to decay.
Such severe injuries cannot be repaired with a short period of rest. If they continue to linger in the Azure Wood Divine Forest, even without further battles, the two will suffer irreversible and permanent Dao injuries due to the prolonged imbalance of their Fate Soul essence.
Chi Qingyue withdrew her fingertips, her expression remaining calm and composed, but her voice subtly deepened. "You cannot continue patrolling; you must return to your clan immediately to heal your wounds." Shen Qingchen and Su Qingyuan remained silent for a moment, not responding immediately.
What truly shook them to their core and kept them reeling for a long time was not their own severe injuries, but rather the world-shaking scene that had just unfolded before their eyes, echoing repeatedly in their minds.
