The Questioning Abyss Floating Island trembled incessantly, and the destiny of heaven and earth surged and ebbed. The Fate Cause Master Seal above Qin Yu's head suddenly blazed brightly, and the tenfold radiance of judgment descended to the sky. The ancient and boundless patterns on the seal carried the power to judge all laws.
Standing atop the Floating Realm of Destiny, he unleashed his full divine soul, covering the entire Annihilation Epoch void. Behind him Azure Ring reversed the trajectory of the Milky Way, and the six Source Dao principles manifested one after another, interlocking, their Daoist rhyme permeating the consciousness of all the heavens, shaking every wisp of life in the world.
As everyone held their breath, Qin Yu slowly raised his finger, pointing towards the most fundamental core of the Annihilation Epoch Realm —the Realm Core.
That is the untouched origin of consciousness since time immemorial, the root of all rules in this world. The laws of the heavens revolve in a closed loop here, incomplete, disordered, and trapped in the shackles of eternity, unable to attain the perfect truth.
Qingfeng passes through the air, a single word falls lightly, yet it pierces through the illusions of eternity:
"You shouldn't exist like this." As soon as the words fell, the Azure Ring Six Forms were fully activated at their final stage, reforging the foundation of a new world.
One Style· Spirit Edge Piercing the Realm
The sharp Dao blade pierced through the superficial appearance of the myriad laws of the Annihilation Epoch, stripping away layers of falsehood and revealing the entire structure of the soul path and the underlying principles of this world under the light of the Dao. Layer upon layer of ancient falsehoods were peeled away, leaving no place for the sourceless laws and rootless techniques to hide, ultimately revealing the fundamental flaw of this old world—a false structure as its body, Beginningless or source, merely writing the annals of eternity, ultimately just an empty law reflected in a mirror.
Second Form: Realm-Severing Silent Light
The Ji Ran Dao light pierced through the Annihilation Epoch, forcibly severing the erroneous logic that had persisted for millennia, and shattering all the solidified rules of the old world. Qin Yu used his own Spirit Firmament Dao Order as the Ultimate foundation, embedding it deep within the lifeblood of heaven and earth, overthrowing the ancient framework, re-establishing the foundation of the laws of the heavens, and laying an immortal foundation for the new world.
Three Styles: Silent Origin Wheel Prison
The Dao Wheel of Annihilation hovered and spun, enveloping the entire Annihilation Epoch void. All the rebellious Dao hearts, souls resisting reconstruction, solidified laws, and misaligned time points of the old world were all Entering Stillness Wheel Prison Domain and sealed into slumber. The power of eternal rebellion was extinguished in an instant, and there was no longer any possibility of hindering the birth of the new world.
Fourth Style: Realm Abyss Reverse Evolution
The order of heaven and earth flows backward, and all the rules of eternity are re-enacted. Qin Yu, with his own soul consciousness as the only legitimate source of evolution, issued a decree to the entire world: the laws of the heavens, the order of all arts, and the life trajectories of all beings shall be redefined and re-evolved from scratch, all in accordance with the Spirit Firmament Orthodox Soul Frequency.
Fifth Form: Spirit Filth Annihilates Heaven
All the remnants of the heavens and the errors of eternity were cleansed. The miswritten Soul Seal, false propositions, and incomplete and collapsed soul beast systems left over from the Annihilation Epoch were all cleansed by the power of the Dao and returned to nothingness and annihilation. Thousands of years of false laws and ten thousand generations of fabrications were wiped out in one day, leaving not a trace of old evils.
A faint, indifferent voice echoed through the heavens, proclaiming the end of the old world:
"Your past is no longer worthy of writing the prologue to the New Territories."
The Six Forms, merging into the final form, the Silent Realm Returns to the Beginning. The six Dao forms Return to One, and the celestial soul light pierces the heavens, enveloping the ten directions and eight extremes.
The heavens and earth trembled violently, the floating islands disintegrated and reconstructed, the void folded and reshaped, the logic of eternity reversed, and the flow of time suddenly froze. The scattered seas of consciousness of all heavens were forcibly Return to One, and the disordered order of the Dao was completely rectified. Qin Yu completely embedded his own original consciousness frequency into the core of heaven and earth, and from then on firmly grasped the Ultimate definition of this world. The rise and fall of realms, the existence and extinction of laws, and the existence or non-existence of the Dao were all in a single thought.
He lowered his gaze to survey the vast, reconstructed world, and whispered his decision, ushering in a new era:
"From this day forward, you are no longer part of the 'Annihilation Epoch Realm'." The heavens and earth collapsed, and the Dao redefined the era.
The consciousnesses of hundreds of billions of cultivators in this world trembled violently. An invisible Nameless decree pierced through the souls of all beings, cleansing the imprints of the old world. All ancient names were rendered obsolete. Qin Yu, with a stroke of his pen, inscribed the eternal inscription of the new world:
"This world shall be written by me." "Below the writer, destiny exists." "Above the existent, it shall be determined by me."
With the final stroke, the boundary inscription was completely finalized, and a new dynasty began: The World of Books: The Annihilation Abyss Epoch.
In an instant, the entire realm roared, and the Daoist aura surged to the heavens.
Billions of soul beasts prostrated themselves, the old seals of countless sects automatically changed, the disordered floating islands returned to order, and the chaotic projections of Fate Soul were all reconstructed. The cultivation foundations, techniques, and soul structures of all cultivators in the world were rearranged and restored to their original order according to the laws of the new world.
The most primordial ancient will of the Annihilation Epoch let out a mournful cry, and the remnants of the ancient Daoist charm slowly dissipated into light, all of which was absorbed and refined by the Azure Ring, cleansed of its old flaws, and integrated into the Daoist tradition of the new world.
Amidst the overwhelming pandering and pilgrimage, one man stood alone on the border of the Silent Abyss, his posture upright, never bowing his head.
Yan Yue draped in white, with light patterns flowing around her. Her eyes were like the burning light in the dark night, clear and deep, watching the world change and Myriad Phenomena Reconstruction.
The Azure Ring Six Forms pierced the Realm Splitting, reconstructing the order of all things, yet they could not shake her in the slightest. Her two natal souls— the Annihilation Abyss First Light and the Final Origin Annihilation Breath —existed before all laws and rules, and were the only two undefined and unbound Ultimate origins in this world.
She gazed at that solitary figure standing atop heaven and earth, creating boundaries with a single stroke of his brush, and for the first time in a thousand years, her heart was shaken, and she murmured to herself:
"... This is not stepping into a realm, this is creating a realm with your own hands."
"If he is not a god... then the word 'god' has never truly existed in this world, from ancient times to the present."
The foundation of heaven and earth, all the ancient rules and inscriptions, Return to One, with the supreme Dao script eternally manifesting, imprinting itself on the very essence of the new world:
Qin Yu, the sole book master of this world and the inheritor of the Azure Ring destiny, witnessed the complete annihilation of the Old Annihilation Epoch and the proud rebirth of the Book World Annihilation Abyss Epoch.
The floating islands returned to order, Fate-Cause re-engraved, and all the heavens were at peace. Within the sea of consciousness of all beings, a gentle yet irresistible soul echoed, resounding throughout the ten directions:
The New Territories will redefine the cause and effect of cultivation, establishing the true path of the Spirit Firmament, which will henceforth be the orthodox lineage of heaven and earth, and all laws will return to their origin.
High above, the Azure Ring disintegrated into countless rings, which fell to the mortal realm, covering every floating island, every sect, and the depths of every cultivator's soul. The complete cultivation system of the Spirit Firmament Great Realm naturally received this influence, took root, and merged into the eternal lineage of the new world.
The Eleven Realms of Cultivation in the New Territories: Dao Source Determination
The Spirit Firmament Dao Order Return to One, abolishing the chaotic order of the old world and establishing eleven supreme realms, each level progressing forward, transcending the shackles of eternity. Each realm broke through the shackles of the previous order, approaching the origin of the Dao Source.
The First Realm: The Supreme Nonexistence Realm, where nothingness is swept away from Wuji, and the ultimate stillness is returned to tranquility. Transcending the barriers of existence and non-existence, neither born nor dying, unattached to all phenomena. The source of the Great Nothingness encompasses the beginning of heaven and earth; with a single, clear thought, all illusory realms are like dust, returning to nothingness.
The second realm, the Profound Mystic Emanation Realm, is infinitely transformative and transcends the metaphysical. From nothingness arises all things; the myriad phenomena of the universe and the flow of time and space are all manifestations of this realm. When the mind enters the Profound Evolution Realm, the former realm of nothingness is merely a small constraint.
The third realm, the Silent Yuan Realm Annihilation the state of returning to the origin and transcending the cycle of cause and effect. It extinguishes the distinction between existence and non-existence, and does not cling to the beginning or the end. The birth and death of the universe, and the rise and fall of all things, are all but a breath. All the previous realms are merely a small part of this realm.
The fourth realm, the Formless Realm, transcends all phenomena, beyond which Wudao. It abandons endless names and the constraints of form and appearance. The true source of the Dao is formless and without Consciousnessless, beyond words and explanations. All the Ultimate cultivation in the world is but a reflection in a mirror.
The Fifth Realm: The True Unity Realm, where all laws Return to One, and one governs all laws. There is no separation or union, no distinction between separation and union. The entire universe and all the myriad principles of law are all born from a single thought. All the creations of the previous realms are nothing more than projections of the True One.
The sixth realm, the Severed Mystery Realm, is where the profound is exhausted and the Dao is severed, severing the origin. Apart from the ineffable wonders, the very thought of the origin is cut off. It is neither existence nor non-existence, neither thought nor delusion. All the Ultimate principles of the world vanish like bubbles in an instant.
The Seventh Realm: Primordial Unity Realm, Chaos Unification, transcending heaven and earth. It merges all things in the universe into one, Beginningless Endless, without inside or outside. With a single thought, the universe becomes like dust, and the order of eternity rests in the palm of one's hand.
The Eighth Realm, the Immeasurable Realm, transcends all limits and transcends fixed rules. It transcends the measurement of time and space and the quantitative determination of laws and principles, encompassing the infinite universe and countless ages. The previous endless realms are merely a tiny glimmer of light.
The Ninth Realm: The Void Truth Realm and Truth. Emptiness is not clung to, truth is not attached to. It eliminates all duality, such as existence and non-existence, reality and illusion, form and emptiness, and transcends the shackles of all dharmas. All phenomena in the world are but illusory scenes.
The tenth realm, the Dao Source Realm, traces back to the source and returns to the origin. The Dao has no fixed form. It transcends the limitations of language and thought, and is the origin of all laws and the root of all phenomena. It governs all realms of heaven and earth. The Ultimate cultivation of all ages is but a faint light at the fingertips.
The Eleventh Realm: The Eternal Extinction Realm, the Ultimate annihilation, transcending all. It breaks through all concepts of eternity, Annihilation, invincibility, Ultimate, leaving no realm, Boundless Realm, Wudao, and no emptiness. All heavens and spaces, logical narratives, and Ultimate laws all return to nothingness. All existence, whether definable or indefinable, is but a fleeting illusion in this realm, the supreme and absolutely transcendent Ultimate of the new world.
The System of Cultivation Techniques: All Techniques Return to Their Origin
The Azure Ring Master Seal hangs high in the sky, and tens of thousands of volumes of Daoist scriptures and cultivation methods manifest from the void, categorized and orderly, completely reconstructing the cultivation system of the new realm, returning to the source, eliminating falsehoods and preserving truth.
The Silent Origin: Tribulationless Chapter is designated as the True Source Dao Chapter, serving as the foundation of all laws in the New Realm. It is revered and worshipped by cultivators from all heavens, its principles being pure and unparalleled throughout history.
The Silent Ring Return to the Abyss Diagram is revered as the fundamental text on the absolute truth of the false body of the soul, revealing the true nature of the soul structure and dismantling the illusion of the false soul. It is the first orthodox classic for the cultivation of the soul path.
The Ten Severing Forms Inscription of the Source-Extinguishing Divine Sword is a supreme inscription for combat techniques, unique and exclusive. It cannot be privately transmitted or copied. Cultivators throughout the heavens can only observe and comprehend it, but are not qualified to practice it.
All Annihilation Epoch cultivation methods that conform to the logic of the righteous Spirit Firmament have been compiled and incorporated into the supplementary chapters, thus integrating them into the orthodox system of the book world; those with flawed principles and false beliefs have been completely eliminated and annihilated.
Throughout the world, all orthodox cultivation manuals bear the same inscription at the beginning: designated by the book's author, named Qin Yu.
Combat Skill System: Five Elements Return to Origin
Based on the original combat technique framework of the Spirit Firmament, the scattered combat techniques of the heavens were rectified and organized into five major axis systems, which govern all combat methods, prevent the proliferation of false techniques, and regulate the order of combat techniques.
Sever the cause system, cut off the origin of all laws, and destroy the root of magic; sever the life system, regulate the life trajectory of all beings, and extinguish illusory life force;
The Soul Rend System shatters the illusions of the soul, clearing the impurities from the sea of consciousness; the Silent Consciousness System calms the chaos of myriad minds, suppressing the waves of the heavenly souls.
The Boundary Control System governs the rules of heaven and earth and controls the ten directions of the void.
The new realm's ironclad rules are established: after a cultivator breaks through to the Silent Yuan Realm, they must verify their own true soul frequency and bind it to their exclusive combat skill register. All combat skills must be verified by soul resonance and legal principles before they can be formed, thus permanently eliminating the chaos of false skills and illusory techniques.
Soul Beast System - Origin Naming
The two primordial divine souls, Nether Abyss Black Dragon Yunyi and Final Light Plunderer Extinguished Light Void Desert, received the Daoist decree and guided the new world's soul beast system to return to its original order, differentiating into three primordial categories, each inheriting the Daoist rhyme and fulfilling its own duties.
Spirit Firmament Type: Relying on the orthodox soul frequency of the book master to construct a soul, with a pure Dao foundation, it needs to have a stable soul contract power and is the Realm Master.
The Annihilation Epoch Type: It inherits the remaining legal principles of the old world, incorporates the logic and sovereignty of the new world, and retains some of the ability to reflect propositions, serving as the soul of the fusion of old and new traditions.
Xi Yin Type: The rarest and most precious soul body in the world, only the strongest high-level beings can achieve symbiosis with it, bearing the origin of the light of dawn, and is uniquely endowed by heaven.
The new rule is: all soul beasts in the world are Nameless, have no book, no seal, and no form. All soul beasts must be named and shaped through the awakening and verification of the Soul Seal of the book master before they can be ranked among the orthodox and exist in the world.
The First Soul Law Monument of the Realm Heart - The Iron Laws of the New Realm
At the pinnacle of the realm, the Eternal Law Stele is erected in mid-air, engraving the first Ultimate law of the Book Realm: Annihilation Abyss Epoch, resonating across billions of realms, its celestial sound eternal.
"All cultivation methods, techniques, and beasts shall be recorded; those not recorded shall not exist."
"The pen of the Master of Books embodies principle; the name of the Master of Books embodies the Way."
The old world has collapsed, and the new world is reborn by the Book Master; the lineage has changed, all causes have been reshaped, and the order of all heavens Return to One person.
New Decree of the New Era: The Ten Palaces Return to Law
The Annihilation Epoch were completely reconstructed through the Azure Ring Six Forms, shedding their floating island forms and the shackles of their old sects, and transformed into ten palaces of destiny, each palace representing a realm, each governing a method of law, maintaining the order of the new realm.
Each of the ten palaces possesses an independent destiny source and exclusive lineage, and is responsible for the relay of realm authority, the inheritance of soul skills, and the resonance of destiny principles. All of them are supervised by the law World Enforcement and must strictly abide by the judgment of the book master's soul frequency. They are never allowed to establish false sects or disrupt the order and deviate from the Dao.
Questioning Abyss Main Palace (formerly Questioning Derivation Eternal Palace)
He wields the Fate Soul Mirror and deduces propositions, serving as the source of ideas for the Soul Wars of the Heavens. He excels at exploring the depths of the Sea of Consciousness, deducing the Dao through logic, and writing books in the Mirror Realm, making him the foundation of the Soul Dao in the New World.
Oath Realm Return Palace (formerly Oath Realm Return Sect)
The cause is determined by oath, and the rules are established by soul. Once the oath is made, the Fate-Cause will not be changed. The master is in charge of judging combat skills and the soul is bound by the oath. He strictly adheres to the law of cause and rule and guards the order of killing.
Thought Form Spirit Palace (formerly Form Thought Spirit Hall)
Thought gives rise to imagery, imagery becomes skill; skilled in constructing shadows and depicting destiny, it is the birthplace of all illusions and construction techniques in the world, and holds sway over all phenomena, both real and illusory.
The Fate Sequence Law Palace (originally the Fate Word Sequence Gate)
The order of all skills is established, the laws of all methods are followed, and the continuity of cause and effect and the order of the Dao are maintained. The compilation of all heavenly combat skills and the structure of propositions all originate from and are regulated by this palace.
Eternal Darkness Book Palace (formerly Eternal Darkness Enforcement Law Manor)
The book of darkness is written, and the laws of soul-locking are judged. It specializes in the techniques of sealing Consciousness Silence and suppressing the soul. Cultivators are reserved and restrained, and can annihilate the consciousness of all things with a single move, thus upholding the righteous way of the Dao.
Hidden Fate Crystal Palace (formerly the Reflecting Hidden Fate Sect)
The mirror reflects consciousness, and life is transferred Wuhen. It is adept at concealing the soul and avoiding perception, and can hide one's form completely in the realm No Mirror. It is the Ultimate lineage of anti-consciousness, anti-exploration, and anti-perception.
Void Canon Severing Palace (formerly Void Canon Book-Breaking Sect)
It establishes negation before establishment, breaks the Cause Splitting, and makes emptiness the truth. Its legal principles are bizarre and abnormal. It is skilled in judgment, reverses logic, and breaks the order of emptiness. It is the most unpredictable realm of the New Territories.
The Abyss Judgment Remnant Palace (originally the Abyss Judgment Abyss-Severing Palace)
By severing the remaining chains and erasing traces of fate, one can shatter the opponent's memory of techniques and sever the source of magic, causing the opponent's skills to be permanently annihilated and unusable, thus wielding the power to judge and determine the cause.
Fate Lock Divergence Palace (Original Proposition Realm-Locking Sect)
Using ambiguous questions as keys and rhetorical questions as locks, it excels at logical reversal and propositional confinement, capable of self-destruction and reversing destiny, and is closest to the Ultimate Dao Path of the book's main propositional weapon.
The Annihilation End Main Palace (formerly the residence of the Unwritten Ancient Sect, Yan Yue)
The cycle of Annihilation Dawn, the source of life has ceased, and this realm carries the deepest and most fundamental Ji Lü principles of this world. This region is mysterious and unfathomable, the Ultimate source of the new world's Dao Source.
The Ten Palaces fully inherit the essence of the old sect, but completely strip away the erroneous laws and principles of the old world, fully embracing the new rules of the book master and returning to the orthodox tradition.
Great Realm Reorganization: Twenty Transformed into Ten
The original twenty major domains of the Annihilation Epoch were reconstructed and simplified by the power of the Azure Ring Dao, condensing into Ten Directions Fate Domain. Each domain supports a palace, and each palace governs a region, thus constructing a solid legal foundation for the Book Annihilation Abyss Epoch. The Ten Directions Fate Domain are not only the territories of heaven and earth, but also the origin of the classification of all heavenly techniques, traditions, logic, and soul nature, governing all paths and regulating all heavens.
Above the Ten Directions Fate Domain, there are no sovereigns or kings, Sole Book Master Qin Yu, the orthodox ruler of this realm, who controls the life and death of all things and the existence and extinction of all laws.
The laws of the Destiny Domain, if not recorded, will lead to chaos; with the Master of Records present, a single decree can set the order of ten thousand souls and the eternal Dao.
Ten Destiny Guardians, Unchanged Through the Ages
As the new world is reconstructed and all laws are renewed, all the martial spirits of the heavens are replaced, but only ten Innate Martial Soul remain unchanged throughout the ages and are indestructible through the ages. These ten martial spirits were originally the pinnacle of the writing of heaven and earth, carrying the origin of the world's way. They do not decline with the Cause Realm order, but only become apparent when the book master achieves the Dao. They are uniquely respected in the new world and guard the eternal.
The Annihilation Inquiry Mirror, the Soul Mirror Domain Hub, holds the power of logic and causal reflection; the Dawn Law Severance, the Wheel of Dawn, holds the power of judging destiny and determining cause and effect.
The Annihilation Drawing Oath, the oath of the monument to fix the soul, holds the power to make all oaths come true and enforce the laws; the Construct Form Consciousness, the spiritual feathers to construct the heart, holds the power to make the soul's image tangible and the skill's soul reflected in the heart;
The Fate Narration Sequence, following the cyclical nature of reincarnation, governing the order of the technical chain and controlling consciousness; the Void Edict Rend, breaking through the classics and opening the void, governing the deconstruction of scriptures and the writing of inscriptions in the void realm;
The Abyss Judgment Remnant the Broken Chains, tracing their origins and ruling on the collapse of destiny's trajectory and the remnants of the broken chains; the Eternal Darkness Enforcement Holds the Balance of Dark Laws, wielding the power to seal the boundaries and punish the soul prison.
Final Hidden Reflection, the crystal mirror conceals knowledge, and the master holds the power to conceal the traces of destiny and enter the realm of oblivion through the mirror; the Proposition Divergence, the key to the proposition is locked, and the master holds the power to reverse the proposition and turn the map of destiny into a book.
Ten martial spirits stand side by side, protecting the New World for eternity, inheriting the essence of the Book of Dao, and forming the Ultimate foundation of all the myriad paths in the heavens.
