Light Judgment Illuminates the Soul · Seven Causes Shatter the Armor
Ji Sichen's voice, like a divine command, resounded throughout the entire Abyss of Fate Sequence:
The second round of [Fate-Path Star Wheel] testing has concluded, and the results are as follows--
Grand Cognition Divine Hall · Si Xunmo -- Eliminated
Light Discourse Extremity Hall · Lan Xuanzhou - Advancement
True Word Extremity Hall · Mirror Abyss · Yu -- Advancement
Void Law Realm Hall - Luo Guifeng - Advancement
Realm Origin Awakening Hall · Lan Qisheng -- Eliminated
Eternal Evolution Realm Hall - Yan Yue - Advancement
Qin Yu of the Eternal Evolution Realm Hall - Advancement
"To date, a total of five people have passed this year's Abyss of Fate Sequence promotion assessment."
In an instant, the halo trembled.
As pillars of destiny formed from the heavens, countless beams of life light descended from the Star Abyss, and one after another, towering pillars slowly materialized on the arena.
--[The Fate-Authority Law Pillars] has appeared!
Ji Sichen stepped onto the summit of the altar, his robes fluttering, exuding an aura of solemnity and majesty.
"Next, we will proceed with the final test of this year's Abyss of Fate Sequence —the Challenge of the Fate-Authority Law Pillars."
"This section is guarded by the top twenty current temple guards of the Eternal Evolution Realm Hall, with one of them guarding each magic pillar."
"The six of you must each choose a pillar to challenge—only by defeating the pillar master can you ascend to the pillar and officially become a guardian disciple of the Eternal Evolution Realm Hall."
Now--
On the arena, twenty [Fate-Authority Law Pillars] stood amidst different dimensions and the reconstruction of Fate Authority, with their guardians emerging one by one. They wore protective divine robes, each with a different aura and an imposing fighting spirit. They were those who protected the glory of the Eternal Evolution Realm Hall, and also the high walls that new challengers had to cross.
Yan Yue, Qin Yu, Mirror Abyss Yu, Luo Guifeng, Lan Xuanzhou... all raised their heads to look, their auras becoming heavy once more.
This battle will determine their true allegiance.
On the vast Destiny Platform, the twenty Fate-Authority Law Pillars were already glowing with divine light. On the eleventh pillar, Lan Xuanzhou stepped out with a solemn expression.
He bowed respectfully to the figure standing beneath the pillar of Dharma, and proclaimed in a clear voice:
"Disciple Lan Xuanzhou of the Light Discourse Extremity Hall has come to challenge the eleventh pillar of the Fate-Authority Law Pillars, humbly requesting guidance from the senior!"
The figure slowly opened its eyes.
A long black and gold robe billowed without wind, a giant crescent-shaped blade with dragon scales embossed on its back was slung across its body, and a deep blue divine seal hung in its palm. The man was about thirty years old, with eyes as calm as mountains and seas, exuding an inviolable power.
He spoke, his voice deep and steady:
"Eleventh Pillar - Lu Feng, current Temple Guardian of the Eternal Evolution Realm Hall, ranked seventeenth."
"Innate Martial Soul: Radiant Puppet Mystic Rock"
"My signature weapon: 'Radiance-Shaking Abyss-Sealing Hammer'."
"I accept your challenge."
As soon as the words were spoken, the beam of light exploded, and the battle platform solidified!
--A sudden sound of air being torn apart arose, and Lu Feng's figure was like a thunderous mountain. He stepped into the arena, and with a light flick of his Hook-Rending Azure Mystic Blade, the space itself began to distort and vibrate!
Lan Xuanzhou took a deep breath, and a burst of illusory light exploded behind him--
"Innate Martial Soul: Star-Patterned Extreme Eye - Illusory Phoenix!"
A phantom of a star phoenix spread its four wings and condensed on the star crown above his head.
The two faced off—the power of destiny and the aura of soul energy surged to their Limit in an instant!
Above the arena, the sky was as black as ink, with cracks and thunder crisscrossing into a net. Lan Xuanzhou stood on one side of the [Extreme Silent Source Realm] arena, wearing the white gold soul robe of the Light Discourse Extremity Hall, the sun emblem on his chest appearing and disappearing with the rhythm of his soul breath. His expression was solemn, but he showed no fear. He slowly walked to the center of the arena, his palm slowly opening, his soul pressure as solid as a rock.
Opposite him, Lu Feng stood firm. This man was a guardian of the Eternal Evolution Realm Hall, ranked eleventh among the pillars, possessing a high-level Primordial Void Realm cultivation and countless battle experiences. His aura was like Mountain Crushing the Summit, causing the void to tremble with every step he took. Behind him, his Innate Martial Soul slowly emerged—
-
Innate Martial Soul: "Radiant Puppet Mystic Rock"
Yao is the sun, and Kui is the rock puppet. Nine luminaries' flames burn on the Xuan Rock. Once this martial spirit is revealed, the spiritual pressure of heaven and earth changes drastically, and the entire arena seems to sink into an ancient rocky Yang domain. Radiant Puppet Mystic Rock is covered in rocky luminous armor, and its four limbs are like mountain pillars. Every punch it lands is accompanied by the explosion of luminous patterns and the power of rock shaking and soul burning.
-
At the same time, he flipped his right palm, and a gigantic warhammer, its surface gleaming black and its forging patterns like thunder, slowly emerged—
-Exclusive Weapon: "Radiance-Shaking Abyss-Sealing Hammer"
Weighing over ten thousand pounds, a single blow can seal half the kinetic energy of the world; the hammerhead is entwined with soul patterns, containing the dual techniques of "Radiant Seal" and "Abyss Collapse," specifically designed to break through prolonged tactics.
-"please."
Lan Xuanzhou clasped his hands in a respectful gesture, but showed no sign of backing down.
Lu Feng slightly raised his eyes and replied calmly, "Make your move. I've never seen anyone who could force me to use my second-stage soul skill."
In an instant--
The power of the Light Discourse Extremity Hall, unleash!
Lan Xuanzhou's left palm swept across the void, and a pure halo spread out from beneath his feet. Within his soul power, countless dark blue, scale-like structures appeared, surging violently and soaring straight into the sky.
-
Soul Skill · "Light Source Evolution Feathers"
Countless feathers emerged from his body, shining like wings. Each feather contained the "Light Evolution" structure—capable of tracking the opponent's soul essence and automatically pursuing and killing them. Once hit, it would burn the stable point of the sea of consciousness, making it difficult for the enemy's technique to recover.
-
Lu Feng snorted coldly, raised his giant hammer, and swept it horizontally!
"Obsidian - Sinking Explosion!"
The hammer transformed into an obsidian arc, spanning a hundred feet, and with a single strike, the fluctuations in the Soul Sea were shattered!
"Boom!!"
Two forces clashed head-on!
The viewing platform trembled, light feathers shot into the sky, and shimmering light surged like a tide. In an instant, a corner of the [Extreme Silent Source Realm] arena sank!
Lan Xuanzhou retreated thirty feet, his right arm trembling slightly, but his expression remained unchanged. Within his body, a second layer of structure quietly rose in his Soul Sea.
"Not bad, you actually managed to block my Yao Zhen's initial stage. Then I'll add another move."
Lu Feng slammed his hammer into the ground, his soul shadow sweeping the sky. "Obsidian - Twin-Pole Collapse!"
In mid-air, Lu Feng's giant hammer crashed down, unleashing his soul skill "Obsidian Twin-Pole Collapse".
As Radiant Puppet Mystic Rock roared, the Twin Yao Extreme Vein Array Pattern appeared behind him, and two scorching Yang Soul Cores rose from behind his shoulders, then merged into the warhammer, causing two completely different Soul Pattern Light Streams to appear on the surface of the "Radiance-Shaking Abyss-Sealing Hammer":
The left side is marked with crimson radiance, possessing the effect of explosive and continuous attacks; the right side is marked with dark radiance, containing the power of sealing and annihilation.
"Boom--!!!"
Lu Feng suddenly swung his Twin Hammers, and the center of the arena erupted like a volcano. Two radiant patterns clashed and burst forth, transforming into the Twin Radiant Soul Meridians, which, like a meteorite bursting through the air, crushed towards Lan Xuanzhou.
The ground exploded, and the array of rules governing the arena was shattered three times in an instant.
The spectators were shocked; no one had expected that a temple guard would use the Soul Skill Dual-Pole Structure in the second round!
Faced with this immense pressure that was enough to destroy the soul armor's defenses, Lan Xuanzhou's eyes darkened, and his right hand suddenly reversed, causing his soul energy to surge!
"... Light Domain - Tide of Severance!"
In an instant, seven light screens transformed around him, each shimmering like a divine feather ring. Within these light screens lay one of his true Fate Soul structures:
-
Domain Technology: Light Domain Construct God
By Sever Karma chain, all "attack result extension" effects of the opponent are blocked for a short period of time. That is, if the enemy's attack misses, it will be unable to generate a next attack. This is one of the core "logical cause-and-effect" construction methods of the Light Discourse Extremity Hall.
-
"Break."
Lan Xuanzhou whispered as he stepped into the center of the light domain. The seven layers of light curtain immediately reversed and rolled inward, forcibly severing the causal connection between the Twin Radiant Rifts that Lu Feng had blasted in front of him!
"!!"
Lu Feng's pupils contracted slightly as he saw that the "Dual Extreme Collapse Soul Stream" that was supposed to explode was actually torn apart and deconstructed within the seven layers of light domain of the Lan Xuanzhou!
At this moment, Lan Xuanzhou finally took the initiative to make a move:
Light-Cutting Shattered Radiance - Derivative Double Split!
With his left hand, he traced the Soul Track, while with his right palm, he reversed the Radiant Cause, transforming it into two streams of shattered energy that shot towards the Soul Pressure nodes on Lu Feng's shoulders!
"Bang! Bang!!"
Lu Feng staggered backward, his soul light dimmed, and his arms were forced back a hundred feet, forcibly activating the Hammer Soul Protection!
But at this moment, he growled menacingly, "If you can cut off the continuation of my attacks, then I will make sure you have nowhere to stand!"
His right arm throbbed again:
"Radiant Puppet Mystic Rock - Third Soul Skill - Abyss-Refining Sealed Explosion Wall!"
Boom!!!
Suddenly, four strands of Soul-Patterned Obsidian cracked open beneath the arena, surging up and forming a barrier that sealed off the entire arena, trapping Lan Xuanzhou in the center!
This is actually an absolute defensive and counter-attack barrier that can absorb enemy techniques and push them back to their source!
-
The arena erupted in another explosion, shocking the spectators. Ji Sichen nodded slightly. "This is the true oppressive aura of the temple guards."
But Lan Xuanzhou let out a soft breath, his expression becoming even more resolute.
"Then let's try out my true main soul combat technique."
A flash of light appeared before his eyes, and a double Soul Seal array emerged beneath his feet. His entire body shimmered with scales, and his soul consciousness entered the second stage of advanced release!
On the arena, the two souls confront each other.
The Radiant Puppet Mystic Rock body stood horizontally within the blazing barrier. Although four layers of Lan Xuanzhou's seven-layered light domain had been shattered, it still stood at the core, as still as a mirror. This moment was the Threshold point for the dual souls to truly unleash their full power.
Lu Feng's eyes suddenly narrowed. "Aren't you only good at creating light?"
He swung his hammers and shouted loudly:
"The Threshold for the Demon Puppet: Primal Black Body, the Rift Armor Awakens--!"
Boom!!
The Radiant Puppet detached from its body, its soul core rising from the ground, transforming into armor that covered its entire body, forming a set of Radiant Soul Armor Divine Machine Armor. Like a god descending to earth, its blazing light illuminated its soul, and its battle intent was boundless!
His soul energy has entered the Soul Armor Fusion stage, which is the Limit battle state displayed by the deep fusion of the Martial Soul and the body's will at the early stage of the Primordial Void Realm!
"The three Realm Lock the arena have been broken; now... let's get serious!"
The next moment--
Lu Feng's Soul Armor burst into flames, like a thunderbolt from the heavens, shaking the earth and launching him into the air. He raised his twin hammers high and unleashed his Ultimate technique:
-
The ultimate technique of the Radiant Hammer: Armored God's Wrath - Shattered Soul Fortress!
-
Boom!!!
The two "Radiance-Shaking Abyss-Sealing Hammer" struck nine lightning soul patterns in mid-air, transforming into the "Shadow Soul Realm Splitting Chain" that pierced through heaven and earth, locking onto all sides of Lan Xuanzhou!
At the same time, the Yaohun Armor autonomously activated the "Shattering God Soul Explosion Protocol," injecting the Soul Core into every hammer pattern.
This strike-
It's not just physical suppression, but a triple attack of soul suppression, causal disruption, and three-dimensional spatial tremors!
On the viewing platform, countless powerful figures gasped in astonishment!
"This... this doesn't look like an assessment at all! This is practically a fight to the death!!"
"Did Lu Feng come here to kill people?!"
-
At this moment, in the center of the arena, Lan Xuanzhou still did not summon any soul beasts, nor did he release his Fate Soul shadow. He simply raised his head slightly, his eyes as calm and clear as ever.
He slowly raised his hand, and the radiance of his second Innate Martial Soul emerged within him—
-
Second Innate Martial Soul: Extreme Pulse Light Armor - Divine Wall of Evolution
Form: Wingless armor light, fully fused with martial souls, clad in "Wall of Light Judgment".
Characteristic: Devours all Soul Skill structures based on "component expansion".
Core Mechanism: As long as the opponent's skill belongs to the "Logic Chain Expansion" or "Construction Split" series, it will be automatically identified as a [Construction Object].
"Here it comes, the ultimate technique of the Radiant Soul... Then catch my true response."
Lan Xuanzhou whispered, took a step forward, and seven layers of structural wheel imprints appeared on his soul armor from his chest!
"Ultimate Judgment - Light Evolution Soul Reflection, Constructing the God of Armor--"
His entire body erupted with light and soul energy, which no longer overflowed but instead completely converged inwards!
The next moment, Lan Xuanzhou unleashed his ultimate technique:
-Ultimate Technique: Shattered Mirror Light Cause: Seven Wheels Destruction
-Bang!! Bang!! Bang!!
The seven reconstructed soul rings were embedded in his body, transforming into seven "structural fragments," each locking onto Lu Feng's hammer shadows infused with the power of soul explosion.
Boom boom boom boom!!!
With each strike, the shattered threads "devour" a section of the hammer chain soul structure, causing the final move calculation chain of the Shattered Soul Fortress to be broken, fractured, and reverted time and time again!
This is like seven beams of soul light, constantly reversing and cutting every logical root chain of Lu Feng's ultimate technique!
"How... how could this be..."
Lu Feng's eyes widened in fury as he realized that despite infusing his Limit soul explosion, he was still unable to truly break through the opponent's protective barrier!
"Your soul skill... severed the prerequisite logic for my skill to 'become'?!"
Lan Xuanzhou did not answer, but instead used his hand to summon the soul, and the seven layers of structural light merged into a "Mirror Flowing Wheel", with the light and flames rotating and the soul shadows surging.
"It's over, senior."
"Soul-Shattering Light Breaks - The Final Judgment!"
-boom!!!
Just as the light completely engulfed the Soul Hammer, Lu Feng slammed heavily onto the arena, spitting out a breath of soul energy. However, the arena immediately shone with a golden circular seal, protecting him and maintaining his life force, preventing him from being seriously injured.
Ji Sichen stood up at this moment, his voice resounding throughout the surrounding area:
"The eleventh pillar, its holder, Lu Feng, is defeated!"
"Light Discourse Extremity Hall - Lan Xuanzhou, Challenge Successfully Completed"
Lu Feng clutched his chest, looked up at Lan Xuanzhou, and smiled wryly, "Good lad... your soul skill is too damn effective against me."
Lan Xuanzhou clasped his hands in a respectful bow. "You flatter me."
The entire audience was stunned, Light Discourse Extremity Hall camp, which erupted in thunderous cheers!
