Within the Annihilation Radiance Fire Extreme Realm, the sky shattered and the earth collapsed, and the spatial layers torn apart by the battle were slowly smoothed out by the Azure Ring of Life Breath.
Yaofen Ji Silent Abyss's body was completely erased in the Ultimate annihilation, and the entire domain of the Flame Laws was also completely Life-Annihilating Dawn Codex. However—in the instant after his existence was completely deleted, a ball of extremely condensed flame spirit suddenly appeared in the depths of the void!
Within that ball of spiritual flame:
The molten core of the star pulsates like a heartbeat, as if giving birth to the universe;
The vortex of flames rotates along the trajectory of Annihilation Radiance, with fragments of evolutionary rules flowing within it;
Each wisp of flame embodies the primordial logic of "negation of order, rewriting of cause, and re-ignition of law".
This is the [Origin Fire Spirit Cluster] left behind after Yaofen · Silent Abyss Xi was destroyed—a "Fire Soul Origin Core" compressed from the burning laws of the Annihilation Radiance Fire Extreme Realm billions of years.
"Yan Xuanyan, quick! Seize the opportunity to devour!"
Qin Yu let out a low roar that resounded through the sky of the Fire Domain. Before the sound had even faded, Yan Yue had already flown backward to give way to the Soul Domain, and the true form of the Yan Xuanyan Flame instantly manifested!
All I saw was:
The body of the Life-Burning Divine Domain suddenly transformed into billions of "Annihilation Flame Scales," condensing around him like a vortex of starlight;
A "Fire Soul Realm Devouring Ring" composed of Annihilation Abyss Fire Souls exploded and spread from within his body, rapidly constructing a devouring ritual;
Above the sky, ten layers of flame domains appeared, from "Primordial Flame - Soul Burning" to "Final Flame - Rule Severing", sweeping down in succession!
Yan Xuanyan roared:
"Destroying Fate and Annihilating the Wheel - Burning Heaven and Returning to Cause!!"
Super Devouring Effect Unfolds--
The entire fire domain space was darkened, with the only source of light being the flowing golden-red annihilation patterns of the Origin Fire Spirit Cluster itself;
Yan Xuanyan opened his mouth, a "Fire-Devouring Dragon Path" constructed from the laws of fire appeared in the void, pulling the Origin Fire Spirit Cluster into its center;
Every time an inch of the spiritual mass is devoured, time in the world is like a ignited Fate Book: rapidly collapsing and burning.
Countless fire-elemental characters burst forth from the spiritual cluster, like fragments of an early script abandoned during the fusion of the universe, which Yan Xuanyan swallowed and refined one by one;
As starlight converged and the raging Fen Feng of heaven and earth reversed, the entire Annihilation Radiance Fire Extreme Realm began to collapse in reverse, as if it were offering up all the essence of fire to him!
Yan Yue exclaimed in amazement, "He... is constructing the main logic of the Annihilation Flame Domain, transforming into the Lord of the Myriad Primordial Fire Source!"
Finally, the flames subsided, and Yan Xuanyan's body slowly landed—his entire spine was burning with silent flame star patterns, his pupils were molten sun black cores, and his aura no longer belonged to the category of strange fire, but had broken through the boundaries of "strange fire" and "rules".
He has already stepped into the Flame Sovereign rank – Annihilation Flame Extreme Emperor!
Yan Xuanyan his head and knelt on one knee:
"Yan Xuanyan thanks His Majesty and Mistress for bestowing upon him the source of life once more!"
At this moment, Qin Yu and Yan Yue exchanged a glance and finally confirmed:
They not only reclaimed another controllable Ultimate fire master for the Annihilation Abyss Epoch, but also went a step further—controlling the most terrifying fire domain in the Heavenly Emanation Treasure Realm.
The flames of war have finally subsided.
The new ruler of this realm ascends to the heavens from this moment on.
The flames had not yet dissipated, and the air still retained warmth.
Qin Yu approached slowly, his steps light yet imposing, his voice echoing through the heavens and earth like a heavy hammer:
"Very good."
"From this day forward, you are the purest and most invincible primordial flame in the entire universe."
Yan Xuanyan knelt respectfully, draped in a Starfire Annihilation Robe. The newly formed [Origin Fire Life Mark] on his forehead was still shining, and the entire Annihilation Radiance Fire Extreme Realm trembled slightly because of him.
Yan Yue walked slowly, her Starfrost Robe fluttering in the afterglow of starlight. Her gaze was serene, yet it revealed a sharpness that could extinguish the very laws of nature.
"Yan Xuanyan, since I and Yu have created your primordial flame body."
"Then you too must forever be the Flame of the Annihilation Abyss Epoch, guarding the soul of my race."
Yan Xuanyan his right fist, the flames of his oath of fire igniting from his Fate Soul, and bowed his head in a deep voice in response:
"Yes, Madam."
"I, Yan Xuanyan, hereby swear by my Fate Soul, and with the Origin Fire as my seal, I vow to protect the Annihilation Abyss Epoch. If Heaven and Earth disobey, I will burn myself to ashes."
Qin Yu's gaze sharpened slightly, and he slowly nodded. "Very good."
He pointed to the blue sky and whispered:
"Azure Ring."
The next moment, the entire Silent Void seemed to tremble.
The Azure Ring slowly materialized, like an ancient and indestructible celestial mirror rising from Qin Yu's sea of consciousness and Yan Xuanyan's head.
Boom--
Thousands of azure rays converged, and countless strands of "soul consciousness" cascaded down from the Azure Ring, like a waterfall of stars, flowing with the light of the annihilation ring's order.
"Yan Xuanyan, release your consciousness and divine sense."
Without hesitation, Yan Xuanyan fully opened his Origin Soul Sea of Consciousness, revealing deep patterns of Annihilation Fire. These patterns were the compositional logic of the Origin Fire—extremely difficult to touch and access.
But Azure Ring is different.
The azure soul light, like an eternal, warm current, flowed into it along the soul meridian star chain.
--In an instant!
[Green Mango Core Recognition] officially injected!
At this moment, the fire core within Yan Xuanyan's body boiled, the azure light and the annihilation flames merging, like the most ancient fusion of heaven and earth, light and fire. He let out a long roar, and his sea of consciousness suddenly exploded with billions of star points, constructing a brand new "Fire Soul Logic Resonance Field".
Deep within his sea of consciousness, a hidden yet eternal "Azure Soul Seal" slowly settled beneath his divine core, like an everlasting seal of his Fate Soul, completely binding his existence to Qin Yu and the Annihilation Abyss Epoch.
At this moment, he was no longer just Yan Xuanyan.
--But rather, the Source Flame Protector of the Annihilation Abyss Epoch!
He bowed his head again, his voice devoid of any arrogance, only filled with the loyalty and reverence of the Primordial Flame Soul:
"I humbly thank the Lord for bestowing the seal, and I humbly thank the Mistress Cheng Yan!"
"Yan Xuanyan —I am willing to be the undying flame of the Annihilation Abyss, forever guarding the vanguard of annihilation across the Epoch Realm!"
Qin Yu withdrew his gaze, Azure Ring slowly returned to his sea of consciousness.
Deep within the void, a barrier shimmering with gray-gold markings slowly emerged.
That was no ordinary spatial barrier, but a chasm between eras— the Epoch Source Barrier Realm, which could only be touched and opened by Origin Lord-level divine power. At this moment, Qin Yu's divine power surged, and strands of annihilation life patterns manifested in his palm.
"Open--"
He gave a soft shout, his fingers slicing through the air, the power of his Fate Soul permeating the entire order of heaven and earth.
Boom--!
The Epoch Source Barrier Realm trembled violently, and a "Gate of Annihilation and Reflection" connecting the Heavenly Emanation Treasure Realm and the Annihilation Abyss Epoch slowly tore open. It was an annihilation light crack that shimmered with azure-gold soul light, like a path where the logic of stars and the barrier of Fate Soul intersected, ancient and sacred like never before.
On the other side, a faint phantom could be seen appearing—that was [Annihilation Abyss Epoch: Yingling], who had descended by Qin Yu's divine command and was waiting to be guided.
Qin Yu looked at Yan Xuanyan beside him, his tone firm:
"You are already the purest Lord of Origin Flame in the Annihilation Abyss Epoch."
"Go— the Annihilation Abyss Epoch: The Yingling has been waiting for you for a long time. He will guide you into the core domain of the Annihilation Abyss."
Yan Xuanyan in shock.
He was no longer the untamed spirit of the strange fire, but the [Primordial Annihilation Flame] recognized by the Annihilation Abyss Epoch!
He turned around and bowed deeply to Qin Yu and Yan Yue, kneeling in mid-air with utmost respect:
"My Lord, Mistress."
"Yan Xuanyan, Ming En's soul and bones! When he returns one day, he will surely burn a million enemies with the Annihilation Flame!"
"For the Annihilation Abyss Epoch —Burn away all barriers!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly leaped into the air.
It was a stream of fiery light that pierced through the "Fate Track Break" cleaved in the inner layer of the Heavenly Emanation Treasure Realm and went straight into the Gate of Annihilation and Reflection.
A pale Azure Ring halo moved with it, as if protecting this flame and resonating with destiny.
The "Gate of Annihilation and Reflection" slowly closed the moment Yan Xuanyan stepped in, leaving a trail of azure flames hanging in mid-air for a long time.
Yan Yue slowly turned her head to look at Qin Yu, and said softly:
"He will surely grow into... a truly immortal flame of the Annihilation Abyss."
Qin Yu: "He was born for the Annihilation Abyss of Annihilation."
After he finished speaking, the world fell silent once more.
Yan Yue turned and looked at the distant sky, whispering:
"Let's go, ahead... is the deep realm we must traverse."
Qin Yu took her hand, and the two vanished into the void, stepping into the true depths of the inner layer of the Heavenly Emanation Treasure Realm.
The fire, though not yet lit, has already been kindled; the blade, sharpened to annihilate the enemy, has already been ignited!
The Annihilation Abyss Epoch will soon welcome another "Realm Breaking".
As the morning light of Annihilation Abyss passed through the "Annihilation Radiance Star Fissure" in the inner layer of the Heavenly Emanation Treasure Realm Annihilation Abyss, it fell upon an ancient yet bustling valley.
This valley was not surrounded by towering peaks; instead, it was filled with swirling light runes, like dancing elixirs. Numerous spiritual arrays slowly rotated, the air thick with the fragrance of herbs, and the Spiritual Qi so dense it was almost tangible. Elixir fire rained down, and array patterns shimmered like rosy clouds, making it seem as if this was not a battlefield, but a "Divine Elixir Array City" transcending the world.
This is the extremely mysterious alchemy array within the Heavenly Emanation Treasure Realm— the Hundred Spirit Fire Pill Abode.
At this moment, the atmosphere in the scene completely lacked the life-and-death battle spirit of the "Trial Grounds," instead revealing a bizarre and lively atmosphere of absurd humor.
--Qin Yu, dressed in a slightly open black-gray Daoist robe, was sitting on a "spiritual pill competition platform" woven from array patterns. Opposite him was a short, stout man with a ruddy face and a small patch of singed eyebrows who had transformed into a divine pill!
The one who had transformed into a divine pill looked like a human-shaped pill, with a round, bulging belly, but adorably short arms, and a face as red as a blazing elixir, full of contempt and defiance.
"You say your human race can also refine pills? If you can refine a divine pill with a more stable spiritual pressure, a thicker soul wave, and a stronger fragrance than mine—my 'Triple-Burning Dao-Refining Pill' —I will admit defeat on the spot."
"If you lose—you and this beautiful woman beside you will become the fire elemental nourishment for my body-refining furnace! Hmph!"
He patted his belly and rolled off the alchemy platform with a "thud," causing a burst of laughter from the group of pill and formation cultivators around him.
"He actually dares to challenge Elder Triple-Burning? He's insane!"
"Who is that person? Judging from his handsome and aloof appearance, could he be an extraordinary individual from some other realm?"
"No matter who he is, does he dare to claim superior alchemy skills in front of Elder Triple-Burning? Heh."
Yan Yue sat on the Azure Gold Pill mat beside Qin Yu, looking at Qin Yu with an elegant expression, a slight smile playing on her lips, "Yu, do you really want to compete with him in this?"
Qin Yu smiled and said softly, "Interesting. How will we know the inner layers of their alchemy logic if we don't try?"
At this moment, the other person formed by the array also joined in the fun, laughing and jeering.
"I bet ten times the Starry Sky Array that Brother Sanran will win!"
"I'll bet one [Burning Yang Spirit-Returning Fire Origin Talisman] that the human race is doomed to lose!"
"I'm betting that if he loses, that woman will personally brew the medicine for us... hehe."
"Shut up." Yan Yue eyes, and the surrounding atmosphere instantly froze.
Several formation-transformed individuals' expressions changed slightly, and they all fell silent.
Although she had a gentle face and a temperament as pure as frost and snow, that glance she had just given contained a terrifying pressure of "space-time rift and Soul Realm freeze," and no one dared to utter another word.
Meanwhile, the other side's cultivators who had transformed from divine pills remained unconvinced:
"No matter how strong this kid is, he can't compare to our 'Three Burnings' Elder's millennia-old Fire Marrow Soul Forging Technique!"
"Alchemy is not just about spiritual power; it's about skill, willpower, and the control of the fire spirit! Let's see how he loses!"
Amidst the commotion, Qin Yu slowly rose and pointed.
"Then let's refine the pills."
"After I finish refining it, I'll show you what the true path of alchemy—beyond the logic of the world—is."
His pupils shifted slightly, a flash of blue light appeared, and suddenly a void alchemy furnace appeared in the center of the alchemy field.
That's no ordinary furnace—it's a vessel for refining Fate Soul, composed of "Life Source Azure Patterns" and "Spiritual Sense Consciousness Chains"!
Exclamations immediately erupted from the surrounding crowd:
"That's... Soul Consciousness Pill-Emanating Furnace!? Not a physical entity?!"
"He wants to use the power of his soul to refine pills? Is he insane!?"
