Breaking the Sacrificial Ring Altar · Obstructing the Master's Eyes
The pressure of the soul had not yet dissipated, and the space remained heavy.
Its enormous body moved slowly, each twist drawing out fluctuations in the rules of the entire realm. The air was drawn away, and the structure folded in reverse, as if countless shattered worlds were spinning and collapsing around it.
That was not a physical action, but an action that "infringed upon spatial sovereignty".
He truly moved.
Qin Yu did not retreat. The Ring Master Soul Diagram spun even faster behind him, and ten Fate Cause Master Seal slowly emerged like the pages of a celestial book, each seal a fulcrum of logical structure.
His gaze was calm, and his consciousness slowly sank into the depths of sword intent amidst the tremors.
The next moment, he moved.
A light touch with the left hand, words as resounding as thunder:
"Fate Cause Master Seal - Initial Fate - Writing-Opening Seal!"
Boom!
The proposition rewriting technique exploded beneath their feet, forcing the logic of the constructed battlefield itself to activate a "reboot module," unlocking the outer layer of "It"!
Immediately afterwards, he swung his sword with his right hand!
"Source-Extinguishing Divine Sword - Sever the Cause, Preventing Birth!"
The moment that sword was unleashed, the causal chain of the entire battle zone snapped instantly!
This move is not about breaking through defenses, but rather about negating the very "cause" of the enemy's skills, strength, and structure.
That jet-black Sword Qi, like "the world's will to refuse to understand," flashed and disappeared!
The next moment!
--The defensive scales on "His" forepaws burst open!
There was no explosion, no bloodshed, only streaks of soul like ink wash painting appearing on "His" right forearm, slowly peeling away.
Those detached scales were not physically broken, but rather their "reason for existence" was stripped away by a single sword strike, turning them into components that "should not have appeared in His body in the first place"!
As if sensing something, He let out a low, angry roar!
The next second, a rotating soul array suddenly lit up in the center of its soul body—that was the "self-defined retrospection" mechanism!
He was able to forcibly invoke his own life-structure defense mechanism to reverse-write a "constant causal chain" after the Causal Severance, and repair it!
But at that very moment of chain reorganization—
Qin Yu makes another mark with his left hand!
"Fate Cause Master Seal Cause-Determining Silent Judgment!"
The final seal of the Ten Forms of Fate-Cause connects at this moment, directly severing His "reverse cause chain" rewriting path!
"Bang--!!!"
At this moment, a chaotic soul mist, like a "flowing fire of logic," erupted from His entire right arm, forcibly imprisoning the entire defensive layer into a "black zone" that was "not allowed to be repaired"!
Qin Yu, at the very moment he unleashed this sword strike, was swept away by its tail!
Although he dodged quickly, he was still struck by the residual force. The soul diagram on his chest trembled, and he was thrown back a hundred feet. When he landed, blood spilled from his mouth, and shattered flames appeared on the bone veins of his left shoulder!
He roared in a low voice, and the outer shell of his right arm cracked open, leaving a hundred-meter-long fissure, revealing a spiraling, twisted "chain of destiny" on its inner side!
That was the first time Qin Yu had shattered the logical structure of such an existence.
However, it also suffered the damage of a boundary-level backlash.
The battlefield shifted in a state of stillness, and noticeable fluctuations were observed in the spiritual energy of both sides.
Qin Yu wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his voice calm:
"At least I know you're not invincible."
And "He" uttered two words in a low, deep voice:
"Those who have not yet received their orders..."
This battle has only just begun.
The wounds have not yet cooled, and the space is still ablaze.
His colossal body, as massive as a surging sea, moved slowly through the silent sky. Though his right arm was broken, it did not bleed. Instead, hundreds of thin, soul-like chains of life-words detached from the wound, twisting and trembling like torn remnants of language.
At that moment, Qin Yu's expression hardened.
"... This is not post-injury defense, it's 'seeking the cause and pursuing the enemy.'"
The next moment!
"He" let out a low growl, opened his mouth and uttered an inaudible "non-verbal incantation," instantly transforming the entire space into Ash Abyss of consciousness!
The hundreds of chains of words suddenly twisted and spliced together, transforming into three enormous chains encircling the text—they were not physical entities, but rather composed of fragments of the semantic origin of the construct, carrying the dual attributes of "cause replacement" and "construction technique deprivation"!
There is only one goal:
This caused Qin Yu's soul consciousness logic to transform into that of a 'non-conceptor'.
That's the most terrifying attack—not destruction, but "making you no longer recognized as a user by the world!"
The chains coiled in the air, moving with a broken sound, and then suddenly pierced into Qin Yu's sea of consciousness!
"Bang--!!"
Qin Yu's body instantly leaned backward, and the entire defensive layer of his consciousness sea trembled!
He felt a massive "setting replacement flow" forcibly invading his Fate-Cause's main axis, stripping away the right to conceive from every thread of his soul, and even the Source-Extinguishing Divine Sword began to fade!
You are no longer permitted to use any skills.
This was the only logical judgment "He" made against him.
But Qin Yu remained calm.
He slowly closed his eyes, and within his sea of consciousness, a massive circular diagram began to slowly emerge—
--Silent Beginning: The Ring Master Soul Diagram.
This is the only anchor point belonging to Qin Yu's original Fate Soul structure, and it is also the only martial soul structure in the Annihilation Epoch Realm that can forcibly read and rewrite the other party's "existence definition" without relying on permission!
The Soul Image rotates.
The halo unfolded inch by inch, like a projection of the old era's main control logic slowly rising.
The next moment, Qin Yu exhaled softly:
"Silent Beginning: Reading the Main Soul Structure--"
Three patterns appeared at the center of the Ring Master Soul Diagram:
First stage: [Technology license status]: Intruded upon
Second Ring: [Soul Identity Location]: In the process of being peeled away
Third Ring: [Skill Existence Write Right]: Threshold Interruption
--Reading complete.
Qin Yu slowly opened his eyes, a glint of light flashing within them.
He raised his left hand, spread his fingers, and said softly:
"Main Soul Invocation - Ring-Turning Definition Reverse Lock."
Buzz!!!
The entire sea of consciousness resounded like a booming bell!
The next moment, the three chains of destiny that rushed into his body encountered a conflict of sovereignty logic within the Soul Diagram!
The logic of identity that He attempted to lock onto was directly reversed by the main soul diagram:
[Current Skill Structure Identity: Illegal Judgment]
[Chain of Causes: No Judgment Authority]
"Click--!"
Three chains erupted from the core of the main soul diagram, unleashing a stream of ash and flame!
--Disintegration!
The Ring Master Soul Diagram also trembled violently, and a clear crack appeared on the left side of the diagram!
Blood seeped from Qin Yu's forehead, and he suffered temporary blindness in his left eye, but the bleeding did not subside.
He raised his hand again and softly recited a mudra:
"Fate Cause Master Seal, the cause is the lock, and the mirror binds the law."
Boom!
Using the extension of the main soul diagram's locking components, Qin Yu directly used this seal to re-entwine the chains extending from "His" sea of consciousness back into its own body!
In that instant, the left side of "His" spiritual consciousness surged!
Like self-devouring!
"Roar--!!!"
"He" let out his most violent roar to date, tearing apart layers of space and causing his soul to tremble violently, as if he were being truly "attacked from within" for the first time!
Qin Yu stood in the center of the broken space, panting heavily. A crack appeared in the soul membrane of his left ear, the point where his consciousness was interrupted throbbed violently, and his vision remained blurry.
But he looked up and smiled:
"No longer allowed to construct techniques?"
"... I am a writer."
The main soul image continued to spin behind him.
Although a corner was broken, it was still intact.
After a brief silence, "He" ignited a genuine killing intent in his eyes.
The ashes had not yet died down, and the shattered fragments of the Ring Master Soul Diagram were still spinning.
Qin Yu high in the sky, wounded and still recovering from his injuries. The chakra on his left shoulder trembled incessantly, but his eyes grew colder and calmer.
He knew that what had just happened was a genuine disruption of "His" master control logic.
And so, He... finally got serious. He growled.
Sound is not born from the dimension of sound waves; it is like the tearing of the Fate Book, like the collapse of a divine throne, stirring up a spacetime echo throughout the entire Obsidian Core.
Before Qin Yu's eyes, the world began to distort.
No, it is the world itself that is being reshaped by the framework of existence defined by "He"!
The next moment, His body, which had been coiled like a pillar of the remnant world, suddenly contracted—
--It's not an injury, but a transformation.
"Bang!!!--"
As if the core of the realm were exploding, as if the remnant soul of a god were being torn into tongues of fire in the gray sea, the colossal beast body, large enough to cover the entire Obsidian Soul Sky, began to tremble violently, surge, collapse, and regenerate at this moment!
The mutation has begun.
His outer shell disintegrated into countless light insects. These light insects were not energy, but "primordial logical particles of the world," which rearranged in the air to construct His second stage: the awakened form.
--The landscape utterly tears reality apart.
His figure was stretched higher and wider amidst the roar, and dozens of soul bone spines grew from his back, like a long bridge in the divine realm, piercing straight into the void logic layer!
At the end of each spine lies the Assertion Bell Tower, the Soul-Melting Well, the Tomb Stair Deep Well...
It was as if He was destroying the entire Obsidian Soul City--
An organ that has become "its own"!
The obsidian ground began to burn, the Soul Tower collapsed automatically, and the distant mountain of ten thousand souls and corpses rose into the sky like a falling celestial book, piling up behind it to form the Reverse Realm God!
And His head—
It split open in the center, spitting out a red and black Fate Ring- shaped beam of light, like a fiery chain from a boundary core!
Its pupils split into four intertwined pupils, each aimed at a different level of Qin Yu's sea of consciousness!
"You are no longer permitted to have a 'definition of independent existence'."
Boom!!! Boom!!! Boom!!! Boom!!!
At this moment, the entire Obsidian Core entered the "God-Sealing Mechanism"!
A sovereign entity abandoned by Obsidian has finally broken free from the world's obliteration and once again proclaims itself as the world's rule!
His true identity is no longer hidden:
The Remnant Cause of the Primal World's Fate God, the Ash Abyss Avatar, the Zeroth Master Constructor-Writer —He
Upon seeing this, Qin Yu felt another sharp pain in his mind!
The three relics were shaking violently and were almost drawn back into the "main body". Only the Ring Master Soul Diagram forcibly intervened and kept the three items in Qin Yu's consciousness domain.
But he didn't back down. Instead, he slowly raised his head.
The diagram of the Ring Master that appeared in his sea of consciousness began to spin faster at this moment!
And for the first time, he spoke in a low voice:
"You want to 'frame me'?"
"I no longer accept any definitions."
The next moment, Qin Yu stepped into the void, his vision resounding, and he made a hand seal with his left hand:
"Fate Cause Master Seal, the Master Book, and the Cause Severing Name."
This seal is not for His body.
Instead, break its "naming structure"!
In the obsidian storm, the judgment-level naming structure was abruptly broken, and one of its four pupils shattered!
It roared, space reversed, and it pounced on Qin Yu!
Qin Yu raised his sword once more.
"The Source-Extinguishing Divine Sword - Sever the Epoch Without a Trace"
Boom!!!
That sword strike severed the "manifestation trajectory" of His current mutated stage, causing His movements to be delayed by three breaths!
Qin Yu took the opportunity to print again:
"Fate Cause Master Seal, the seal extends, and the Mirror Returning Ring."
Reflect all the exoskeletal structures He released—completely mirror them!
The spatial logic of the entire Obsidian Soul City was completely distorted and twisted at this moment!
However, under immense pressure, he himself coughed up several mouthfuls of soul blood, the cracks in the Ring Master Soul Diagram on his body spread again, and two of his soul meridians collapsed!
Both sides are injured!
But--
His transformation was complete, yet Qin Yu had not retreated even a step.
This is the first true "Realm Master -level battle" of the awakening stage.
And all of this is just the beginning.
The Realm Core Abyss has long since lost its original appearance.
The entire Obsidian Soul City is no longer a battle space, but rather an extension of "His" organs.
The corpse mountain, the Soul Well, and the Assertion Clock Tower were all drained of their life essence and merged into "His" enormous body, which was as large as a pillar of the world.
In the center of "His" mutated four eyes, a huge Sacrificial Ring Divine Platform appeared, woven from billions of Soul Seal into a rotating structure, encircling His head.
That's neither decoration nor an observational organ.
Rather, it is a command map authority node that redefines the battlefield.
At this moment, the "altar" began to operate.
As the only shattered eye among the four lit up, the entire space distorted!
A "Fate Diagram Vortex Chain" resembling a soul star storm descended from the sky, locking onto the sky above Qin Yu's sea of consciousness and forcibly implanting the following three layers of sovereignty:
[Skill Delay Inscription] -- All of Qin Yu's skills will take effect three breaths after activation;
[Fate Ring Stripping] -- Strips the Ring Master Soul Diagram of its authority to interfere with the "anti-thought structure";
[Space Re-Signature] -- During the world logic rewriting, the space where Qin Yu is located will default to belonging to "His" main world extension domain.
This is a strike from a creator-level authority.
It's not about bombarding, but about completely stripping them of their right to fight and their very existence.
Faced with the rapid downward pressure of the Fate Diagram Vortex Lock, Qin Yu frowned sharply, his soul consciousness trembling with a stabbing pain.
The Ring Master Soul Diagram is damaged and has not yet been repaired, hindering the chain judgment mechanism.
The Source-Extinguishing Divine Sword was temporarily suppressed by the spatial flow and could not be drawn directly.
However, at this moment, his sea of consciousness automatically activated a reverse decoding program:
"Fate Cause Master Seal, its structure is built upon it, and its domain is transformed by logic."
Buzz--!
Battlefield logic rotates!
The destiny diagram structure that was originally pressing down was forcibly turned around under Qin Yu's feet - he did not directly destroy the power, but flipped the entire logical structure of the structure by 90 degrees!
"His" Space Re-Signature was forced to move horizontally, and the lock point is temporarily invalid!
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Qin Yu clasped his hands together again and unleashed a series of seals:
"The Master Book, Cause Severing Name —severing its logical basis for authority."
Boom!
The light chain of the Sacrificial Ring Divine Platform instantly cracked into three pieces!
His upper left pupil trembled, the sacrificial ring sank three zhang (approximately 10 meters), and control failed!
But the aftershocks are still ongoing! The "Fate Ring Stripping" has taken effect!
Qin Yu felt as if the soul diagram on his back was being torn apart, and the only stable core support in his consciousness almost fell off!
His eyes narrowed sharply, and he gritted his teeth as he unleashed a second strike:
"Cause-Determining Silent Judgment!"
"You're stripping me of my privileges? Then I'll define 'this deprivation structure' as illegal."
--Printed!
The Fate Diagram's permission module ignited in the air with ashes, and the entire resignation technique was delimited from the world's logical definition!
Boom!!!
One of the four pupils has been extinguished once again!
His consciousness trembled violently, and the continuous flow of energy was interrupted!
Qin Yu was seriously injured again at this time.
He suppressed the side effects of the "skill delay" and endured the backlash from the three-breath delay. He was swept by the Fate Diagram Vortex Chain, and his defensive chain on his chest shattered layer by layer, causing him to spit out a mouthful of soul blood!
The soul meridian is damaged, and the flow rate of the main seal sea is halved!
The lower left ring of the Ring Master Soul Diagram was squeezed out of the core of the consciousness domain and could only maintain low-frequency resonance!
He knelt on one knee, his gaze sharp and unwavering.
Two of His four eyes have been extinguished, and the sacrificial rings are mostly out of balance.
But He remained standing, His imposing presence undiminished, speaking in a low voice:
You... cause me pain.
His voice no longer held indifference, but instead carried a slight hint of...
"Tearful killing intent".
Qin Yu stood up again.
The Source-Extinguishing Divine Sword has finally been drawn!
A black blade reflected in the sky, its first glimmer of light appearing.
He said, "The real suffering has not yet begun."
