Annihilation Abyss Devours the Realm · Soul Prison's Shattering Light

At that moment, the gate of light quietly closed beneath his feet.

The world was colorless, and the wind was silent. The world Qin Yu stepped into was not like an illusion, but more like a fragment of truth forgotten by time.

The ground beneath my feet is not soil, but a layer of floating pages of destiny—each page woven from light and dust, with countless ancient symbols of destiny flowing across them, trembling gently in the wind, as if still murmuring some distant history.

Above, the sky is an inverted sea. There is no water in that sea, but rather flowing light of cause and effect; each ray of light is like an unfinished proposition, slowly gathering, breaking, and being reborn. With each flicker, the entire space breathes, as if the world itself is contemplating something.

In the distance, deep within, floats a colossal ruin composed of broken pages, obliterated pens, and fragments of soul bones. The ruin rises and falls continuously, like a temple repeatedly written by fate and repeatedly erased by the world.

Countless shimmering particles of text floated in the surrounding air—they were not light, but "definitions." Each particle emitted an extremely faint rhythm, as if attempting to rearrange the logic of Qin Yu's existence.

A deep, aimless voice sounded in his ear:

"The fate of a writer is to go against the current."

Only by not being rewritten by oneself can one see the source of destiny.

Qin Yu looked up, his gaze calm and steady. The wind rustled the hem of his clothes, and the pages of the Book of Fates seemed to sense his will, trembling slightly as they turned one page after another.

The path ahead of him was paved with these pages—each page bearing the image of "himself".

Some were young, some were old, some were clad in armor, and some had long since turned to ashes.

In the entire space, he was the only one walking slowly;

Where footsteps land, destiny trembles, and heaven and earth murmur in response.

He didn't use any power; he simply made the void ripple slightly with his thoughts.

There was no wind, no sound, and Boundless Realm all around.

The entire illusion seemed to be governed by only one "proposition"—

If fate can be written, then is the writer also being written?

Qin Yu narrowed his eyes, his divine sense spread out, and the Nine-Wheel True Evolution Dharma Wheel slowly rotated within his body, the Ring Master Soul Diagram faintly glowing with a ray of annihilating blue light.

In the silence, he sensed that the "Fate Origin Abyss" ahead was awakening.

It was a pulse that transcended life, death, and existence, like the heart of the world beating backwards.

Qin Yu took a deep breath and slowly walked forward. With each step, the pages beneath his feet ignited with extinguished flames before crumbling into dust.

The firelight had no heat, yet it illuminated the darkness at the bottom of the abyss.

As he ventured deeper, the heavens and earth trembled slightly, and a massive ray of light rose from the ground, forming an ancient "Gate of the Fate Ring," upon which were inscribed:

[The Book of Reversal of the Cause Realm - Fate Source Abyss Tracing]

The moment he raised his hand and his fingertips touched the portal of light, all the symbolic symbols of the surrounding world flickered simultaneously, solidifying into an invisible chain of laws—

Qin Yu's figure was gently pulled by the chain, slowly sinking into the depths of his life source.

Heaven and earth shattered.

The moment the Phoenix of Annihilation Dawn spread its wings, Luo Shuangyue's long hair flew wildly, and her clothes were as white as snow. Her eyes suddenly brightened, and a clear shout exploded from her lips, the sound waves like swords, piercing through the entire Consciousness Realm.

"--seal up!"

With that final sound, the light and darkness of the entire world instantly folded together.

A gigantic lotus-shaped illusion mirror appeared behind her, its surface flowing with silver lightning. As the light swirled, countless runes flickered. These runes were not light, but solidified words of destiny.

Luo Shuangyue spread her arms, and lightning and fire intertwined between her sleeves, while flowing silver formed a wreath.

She raised her hands high, her voice booming like thunder. "Realm Words Book Seal Script - Sealing Boundary Seal!"

The heavens and earth roared!

An invisible barrier instantly spread out from beneath her feet, accompanied by millions of annihilated silver characters tumbling out of the void.

The words, like metallic streams of light, crisscrossed and wove into a vast array of characters between heaven and earth.

The outer ring of the book array is engraved with 327 life runes, each shimmering with different levels of brilliance.

The inner layer is covered with "judgment seals," resembling a constantly rotating halo that emits a deafening roar.

With a flick of Luo Shuangyue's sleeve, the array of books suddenly contracted—

Space froze instantly.

Even the wings of the Phoenix of Annihilation Dawn paused in mid-air for a moment, its light and flames frozen, and cause and effect stilled.

Immediately, countless annihilating silver lightning flames erupted from the core of the formation!

That lightning flame was not ordinary fire, but energy composed of "reverberations of rules". Every wisp of flame that streaked across the air brought with it a distorted, shattering sound of cause and effect.

The sound was like the collapse of millions of worlds at once, or the roar of a thousand armies.

The annihilating silver flames descended from the sky, like a rain of light;

Each raindrop can destroy the soul logic of a small realm.

Luo Shuangyue stood at the center of the formation, the lotus seal in her hand shining brightly, her gaze as cold as the stars, yet her aura remained as steady as ever.

She used her soul as a brush and the world as a seal, and the entire book array transformed into a giant halo that slowly rotated, its silvery radiance engulfing all directions.

But the world has not yet rested--

The next instant, a low hum, even lower than thunder, rang out.

Behind the Phoenix of Annihilation Dawn, a second Illusory Spirits suddenly appeared—

Spiritual Observer - Judge of the Wheel of Causes.

It was completely transparent, with twelve rotating Fate Ring in its eyes, each ring engraved with runes and points of light. It was a cosmic-level logic array, where cause and effect were woven into a celestial canopy.

It stretched out its hand, and twelve blazing white light wheels slid from its fingertips, merging side by side with a thunderous roar, like the hammer of destiny!

"--Ruling: Boundary breach occurred!"

Boom!!!

The twelve light hammers fell simultaneously.

Each impact was like a star falling, shattering space and collapsing time.

The book array surrounding Luo Shuangyue trembled violently, and the Annihilation Silver Light Flower scattered into millions of fragments of light during the impact.

The ground beneath her feet began to crack, and her spiritual energy was torn to pieces.

Her eyes narrowed, and the runes in her sleeve reappeared. She uttered a low shout:

"--Seal the Boundary Again, Annihilation Wheel Sets!"

In an instant, all the annihilated silver characters reassembled in the void, transforming into a "Realm Lock Lotus Platform" composed of overlapping rune lotus petals.

The lotus platform, with her at its center, emitted a radiant light that spread outwards, like a giant wheel pressing down on the sky once more.

The lightning and the light hammer collided, instantly unleashing a blinding white light.

The shockwave swept across thousands of miles of void, shaking the entire illusory sky until it was turned upside down, and the flowing light rolled back like a falling galaxy.

Luo Shuangyue was so shocked that she staggered back three steps, her sleeves torn, and a trickle of blood spilled from the corner of her lips.

She raised her head, her gaze still cold, her voice low:

"Annihilation Dawn- level Illusory Spirits... Hah, so this is the trial of the 'Fate Source Reverse Writing'?"

"Very well, let me see—the so-called End of Annihilation Dawn, can it truly suppress my spirit?"

The Lotus Illusion Mirror lit up again, its surface crackling with lightning, reflecting her image.

In that image, Luo Shuangyue had transformed into a pure silver flower of light, standing amidst the winds of Annihilation.

Her voice was as soft as a whisper, yet it pierced through the entire illusion:

"The lotus heart endures, the boundary seal remains forever—Seal!"

Boom--!

The lotus-shaped illusion mirror suddenly expanded into a vast sea of light.

The world turned completely white, and the figure of the Consciousness-Burning Spirit-Devouring Phoenix cried out and disintegrated amidst the annihilation light.

The twelve Fate Ring twisted and shattered in the flames, tearing a dark rift in the causal canopy.

At that moment, the world seemed to stand still.

Only the silver petals drifted slowly down from the sky, landing on Luo Shuangyue's shoulder and burning into a wisp of faint light dust.

The heavens and earth are still burning, but the light has fallen silent.

Luo Shuangyue stood in the vast white void, her long hair flying, yet her breathing was surprisingly steady.

The lotus platform beneath her feet slowly shattered, turning into countless silver petals that scattered in all directions. Each petal carried her soul essence and inscriptions, as if proclaiming her victory to the entire illusion.

The Consciousness-Burning Spirit-Devouring Phoenix was completely Annihilation. Its wings transformed into a torrential rain of light, falling from the sky and turning into specks of ashes. Those ashes did not fall to the ground, but were absorbed by heaven and earth, merging into the underlying structure of the illusion, becoming a new thread of destiny.

At that moment, a distant cry echoed from the void, neither like a beast's roar nor like thunder.

That was the ancient pagoda's response.

"The Fate Realm has been pacified, and the Soul Seal has been upgraded."

A sliver of light split open in the sky. The light was invisible and colorless, yet it pierced through heaven and earth. Countless symbols moved within it, like pages turning in Fate Book.

Luo Shuangyue looked up and felt a vast power rising in her sea of consciousness, which even caused the illusionary mirror behind her to light up.

A page of light descended from the sky and hovered silently in front of her.

The pages of the book were entirely crystal clear, and four characters were written on them, "Key to the Annihilation Realm".

She reached out and gently touched the pages of the book, the light of the pages melting into her palm.

In an instant, the entire world trembled slightly, and the ground beneath her feet slowly rose, revealing a staircase leading to a higher realm of illusion.

The steps were not made of stone or spiritual energy, but rather a series of flowing destiny texts—each step was a destiny text that she herself had "rewritten."

As she took her first step, her aura instantly intensified, and the shimmering silver light emanated from her body, spreading outwards like a silent sea of stars.

She glanced back at the shattered illusion below.

There, the firelight had long since died down, leaving only lingering shadows and shards of flame drifting in the void.

Luo Shuangyue's gaze was calm, but a resolute, cold light flashed in her eyes.

Fate can be written, and boundaries can be broken.

If the sky is the paper, then I will be the seal.

As soon as she finished speaking, she stepped onto the last step.

The light curtain opened completely, transforming into a vortex like a silver lotus flower, slowly engulfing her figure.

Amidst the radiant light, the roar of heaven and earth faded into the distance, replaced by a low murmur from another higher dimension—the summons of the seventh layer of illusion.

White light swirled, and a shower of silver flowers fell like stars.

Luo Shuangyue's figure gradually disappeared at the end of the life-inscription staircase, leaving only a silver flower imprint that slowly rotated in the void, radiating an eternal light.

As that suffocating shadow rose from the horizon, the heavens and earth trembled with an almost mournful sound.

The void split open silently, the fragments like mirrors, reflecting billions of distorted soul shadows.

Each of those fragments reflects the same terrifying being—

The Realm-Devouring Soul Prison Beast. That's not its "form".

It is not a collection of souls that is forever devouring itself.

It has no bones, no flesh, and no organs.

Its "body" is composed of countless flowing fragments of souls, annihilated pages of the Fate Book, and broken lines of cause and effect, layer upon layer, constantly devouring and constantly regenerating.

Each time it devours something, new soul essence is born from the crack, only to be chewed up again and returned to itself.

Its logic is. "To survive is to be devoured."

When it appears, even time is consumed.

Yuan Ming stood in mid-air, his black robes fluttering, his cold eyes as calm as still water.

His aura intertwined with the darkness, his spiritual pressure as imposing as a mountain.

But in an instant, he realized—this was no ordinary being of the Annihilation Dawn Realm.

"Annihilation Dawn... the Final Phase Grade." He murmured.

There was no fear in his voice, only the solemn chill of a warrior facing his destiny.

The next moment, the Realm-Devouring Soul Prison Beast slowly opened its abyss-like "mouth".

That wasn't a mouth, but a spiral void composed of tens of thousands of soul shadows, filled with the light of collapsing cause and effect.

A crushing, annihilating force swept over me.

Yuan Ming raised his hand, and a flowing "Void Realm Seal" appeared in his palm, the symbol exploding in the air like blood-red threads.

The annihilation stream shot forward in a spiral shape, attempting to seal off that abyss of souls.

However, in just a moment—

The annihilation flow was completely swallowed up, and even the symbols were torn into nothingness.

The Realm-Devouring Soul Prison Beast's form reassembled in the void, each breath it took devouring the surrounding space.

The sky warped, the earth's veins cracked, and the entire illusion began to "fold itself."

Even beneath Yuan Ming's feet, beams of light appeared reversed—the River of Life flowing backward.

The rules of space have collapsed.

The world no longer distinguishes between up and down, front and back, light and dark; everything is distorted by that invisible devouring force.

Yuan Ming was caught up in it, and his sea of consciousness emitted a violent buzzing.

He attempted to lock his own Fate Soul in place using the "Realm of the Abyss Soul," only to discover that even his own soul essence was being gnawed away bit by bit.

"Oh..."

A bitter smile appeared on his lips.

"The sixth level of the Annihilation Void Tower is indeed beyond the reach of mortals."

He raised his hands, his spiritual energy surging wildly within him, and a final, cold glint flashed in his eyes.

"Abyss - Broken Seal!"

With a roar, the annihilation flow transformed into black and white light wheels, erupting from his body and sweeping in all directions.

This mark was his final act of retaliation—using his own destiny as fuel to forcibly sever his connection with the illusory world.

The light wheel sliced through space, and the sound waves pierced through heaven and earth.

The world fell silent in an instant.

Then, a deafening roar tore through the void, and the figure of the Realm-Devouring Soul Prison Beast instantly collapsed into a chaotic cloud of dust.

Yuan Ming's body was struck by the recoil of the annihilation current, and he fell backward.

In the instant he plunged into the abyss, he saw the monster begin to coalesce again.

It is still wriggling.

It's still devouring.

That is the eternal, immortal instinct to devour the world.

"... Did it fail?"

His voice was gradually swallowed up by the space.

The next moment, a beam of light descended from the sky, enveloping his entire body.

The illusionary realm collapsed with a deafening roar, and his figure was directly "repelled" by the power of the ancient tower.

The crowd outside gasped in unison as Yuan Ming fell from the light of the tower gate, surrounded by a gray-white light. His breath was weak, but he was not dead.

He slowly opened his eyes, and a wisp of annihilating silver light suddenly flashed in his palm—

That's the reward for the sixth level. "Soul Annihilation Bone Ring - Fragment of Annihilation Realm".

An ancient bone ring lay quietly in his hand, its surface engraved with incomplete runes.

That was a part of the "Fate Source Reverse Writing," a divine artifact said to Soul Transformation's consciousness and resist the pressure of Annihilation Dawn.

Yuan Ming glanced at it, snorted coldly, and slipped the bone ring onto his finger.

He then turned around and looked up at the ancient pagoda, which still towered into the clouds and shimmered with endless light.

A slight smile played at the corners of his lips.

"The sixth level... I ultimately failed to cross it."

However, I remember the taste of the tower.

As soon as he finished speaking, his figure vanished with the wind, leaving only a faint trail of smoke floating outside the tower.
