Silent Origin Claimed · Stainless Sword Embryo

As Qin Yu slowly took a step, the [Stainless Silent Origin Sword Embryo] floating in the center of the Void White Abyss suddenly emitted a "resonance" that was not a sound. It was a tremor from the very origin of the universe, completely stripping away even "hearing" and "perception".

In an instant, the eighth floor of the Ancient Logic God-Cultivation Tower lost its form.

Light is no longer light, darkness is no longer darkness, and space no longer has the meaning of "dimension".

Countless chaotic lotus petals flew out from the Annihilation Abyss, swirling, overlapping, decomposing, and then merging into a path leading to nothingness. That path was not made of matter, but rather a stream of light folded from time and causality. Each step was equivalent to traversing the birth and death of a universe.

The sword embryo hovered in front, and the purple-gold light suddenly turned into pure white. That white was not holy, but absolute "No Definition"—under that light, Qin Yu's figure was instantly stripped into countless layers of concepts: existence, consciousness, cause and effect, identity, soul... Each layer was rewritten and disassembled, as if experiencing a thousand lives and ten thousand deaths at the same time.

Following this was the "breathing" of the ninth level.

The heavens and earth were silent, yet countless golden characters flowed through the void. They were not language, but rather "self-narrations of destiny." When these characters merged, the void above Qin Yu's head transformed into a flowing "Mirror of Destiny." What appeared in the mirror was not his appearance, but "the countless forms he could possibly become": he died in battle, he rose to power, he was annihilated, he became a god, or he was never born.

This is the trial at the entrance to the ninth level—[The Fate Abyss: The Judgment of Selflessness].

Test the logic definition:

"If you cannot deny the necessity of your own existence, you will never be able to enter the realm of Stainless Silent Origin."

This is not a battle, but an Ultimate interrogation of the "meaning of existence." Anyone who enters must face the process of having their "Fate Principle Origin Point" negated one by one. All emotions, obsessions, goals, and fates will be stripped away to nothingness. Only by being completely "selfless" can one touch the divine sword of "No Definition".

However—this standard of testing should only belong to those Annihilation Dawn Realm · Supreme.

Because only the Annihilation Dawn can retain a trace of a soul core that can be recognized by the world, even under the condition of "No Definition".

Before Qin Yu even stepped into the portal, the surrounding universe began to collapse. The tower walls shattered into layers of logical waves, the galaxy flowed backward, and three thousand timelines swirled beneath his feet, converging into a gigantic lotus flower of cause and effect. Deep within the lotus's heart lay a "Faceless Eye."

That "eye" has no physical form, yet it gazes upon all things.

"All that is defined as existing is illusory."

Who are you?"

The sound exploded directly in the depths of his soul, like thousands of Annihilation thunderbolts simultaneously shattering his consciousness. Qin Yu felt his flesh, soul, and destiny being stripped away at the same time, and the world began to delete him as a "false concept."

His body was gradually "negated" as it transformed into data-like rays of light.

He saw that every battle, every choice, every past experience of his was calmly erased by that Faceless Eye.

You never existed.

The entire space was plunged into pure white, and even thought was distorted into an incomprehensible state.

Qin Yu clenched his teeth, and the Book of Fate Law within his soul consciousness erupted with a violent tremor. The golden life seal flickered as he forcibly constructed his self- Consciousness Realm with the "Fate Cause Sealing Mirror - Logic Abyss Core," attempting to temporarily stabilize his existence.

But the "No Definition" light instantly shattered the mirror into fragments. The shattered mirror turned into feathers of light that fell from the sky, each one engraved with the word "annihilation".

Time, space, consciousness, existence, destiny, cause and effect, soul, history... all dimensions shattered in an instant.

The silence on the eighth floor shattered completely at that moment.

The annihilation storm erupted like a star exploding, billions of streams of light swirling backward, and the energy of the entire tower was stretched into a long, black-and-white river. Qin Yu's body was instantly swept into that river, and Azure Ring's exclamation echoed in his mind—

"Little Qinzi! If you can't hold on, then retreat! This isn't the area you should be dealing with right now!"

A resolute light flashed in Qin Yu's eyes. But the next second, the "Faceless Eye" suddenly unleashed billions of chains of light, sealing off his entire existence.

"Definition Collapsed - Trial Failed."

A cold voice echoed in the void.

Immediately afterwards, a streak of purple-gold light fell from the top of the tower, like a meteorite crashing to the ground, violently blasting Qin Yu out of the light gate.

Boom--!

The entire eighth floor solidified again, and the shrouded white void became a physical entity. Qin Yu crashed heavily into the heart of the tower, causing countless shattered life seal ripples to surge across the ground, and the shockwave unleashed an energy wave thousands of feet high.

He knelt at the heart of the tower, a trickle of blood spilling from the corner of his mouth, his clothes scorched by the annihilation light.

Within his sea of consciousness, the Azure Ring halo trembled violently, its voice shaking slightly.

"Little Qinzi... you were almost completely erased by that thing just now."

Qin Yu slowly raised his head, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his expression calm as still water.

"So... the entrance test to the ninth level is to completely 'deny existence'."

He smiled slightly, his voice extremely soft, yet with an undeniable firmness:

"Very good. Then I'll go again."

He stood up again, and the life runes beneath his feet lit up once more, causing the golden core of the tower to resonate with a deep, resonant sound.

The eighth layer of the Sea of Light of Annihilation reignited. Qin Yu looked up at the void staircase leading to the "Stainless Silent Origin," and the life runes beneath his feet lit up again, with layers of golden halos spreading around him. An abyss-like sense of oppression filled the air, a feeling like an invisible "hand of existence" about to tear apart his mortal body.

The Azure Ring halo rotated gently in his sea of consciousness, its sound somewhat hurried:

"Little Qinzi... your soul hasn't fully recovered yet. This ninth level of the trial can't be overcome by brute force!"

Qin Yu slightly turned his head, his eyes remaining calm.

"I know. But if I don't face it, I'll never know my Limit."

As soon as he finished speaking, he stepped forward.

As his foot touched the "staircase of destiny" again, the entire eighth floor fell silent instantly.

Light, sound, time, and space were all compressed into a single line. That line, like a sharp blade, sliced through heaven and earth, and a tearing white flame shot skyward. The structure of the eighth floor instantly reversed, the tower walls collapsing into countless shattered mirrors. The mirrors reflected not images, but countless versions of Qin Yu—

One died on the battlefield of annihilation.

One Entering Stillness.

A self-denied "false self"

There's another one... Does Not Exist at all.

Qin Yu's pupils contracted sharply, and his body was instantly dragged into the Mirror Realm by an irresistible force.

The surrounding world reassembled into a pure white plain, with no sky or earth, only endless "selves" standing silently. Each "Qin Yu" was exactly the same as him, yet exuded a different aura of destiny.

"Who are you?"

The voice rang out again, cold, ancient, and ruthless.

All the "Qin Yu"s spoke simultaneously, their voices overlapping like a resounding bell echoing through the universe.

"Those who define themselves are not the true self."

Those recognized by the world are all illusions.

In an instant, billions of chains of light surged forth from all directions, piercing through his body. These chains of light were not matter, but rather extensions of the "concept of existence." Each chain of light was drawing away a part of him: emotions, will, beliefs, soul...

Blood was evaporating, consciousness was shattering, and even time itself was being pulled apart into countless fragments by these chains of light.

Qin Yu gritted his teeth and forcibly activated the Book of Fate Law.

Countless golden pages flew out from the void, swirling around him, the pages shimmering with the radiant light of the inscription [Master Book Seal Severance - Naming Reconstruction].

"If the world wants to erase me—then I will rewrite the world."

A burst of golden light erupted, and the moment the Book of Fate Law unfolded, the world seemed to be forcibly "defined" for a moment. Qin Yu's figure refocused, and his existence was pulled back to reality from "nothingness".

But then, the white space trembled again.

The Faceless Eye opened again—this time, it was colder and deeper than before.

"A book of falsehoods is also a definition."

You have not yet escaped existence.

Boom!!!

Billions of "annihilation light chains" shattered simultaneously, turning into endless light dust that rushed towards Qin Yu, instantly piercing through his entire body. At that moment, his destiny, consciousness, soul, and body were all pulverized into billions of energy fragments, silently exploding in the void.

The ceiling of the eighth floor suddenly collapsed.

The purple-gold and annihilated-white light fell simultaneously, as if the entire universe had been forcibly reversed.

Azure Ring spun wildly in her mind's eye, screaming, "Little Qinzi!! Enough!! Stop!!!"

But it was too late. Qin Yu's sea of consciousness completely collapsed, and his consciousness was torn into countless fragments.

A deafening roar followed, Annihilation shockwave swept across the entire tower.

He was thrown directly by that "Existence Denial" energy and crashed heavily into the core of the eighth floor. The ground was blasted into a huge crater, and cracks spread outwards like a galaxy.

Dust particles, obliterated by the annihilation, danced in the air.

Qin Yu knelt on the ground, his chest wound constantly Leaving Stillness white energy. His soul was almost shattered, and his breathing was extremely weak. The Azure Ring flashed rapidly, its spiritual light enveloping him and stabilizing his tattered soul source.

A moment later, he slowly opened his eyes. There was no longer any panic in his eyes, only a deep calm.

He murmured to himself, his voice slightly hoarse:

"The Annihilation Dawn Realm · Supreme... that's no exaggeration."

The light and shadow of the Azure Ring trembled slightly. "If you go again, you might be completely deleted, Little Qinzi."

Qin Yu chuckled softly, the bloodstains at the corner of his mouth reflecting the golden light.

I have one more time left.

He looked up, gazing at the white staircase that was still shimmering in the void.

The portal to the ninth level still exists, silent as the watchful gaze of a deity.

He didn't rush to get up, but simply closed his eyes and quietly felt the wave of "denial of existence" reverberating in his chest.

The eighth floor fell into a deathly silence once more. The air still carried the aura of "Existence Denial," as if even time itself had been covered by the dust of Annihilation. Qin Yu stood in that stream of desolate white light, the life seals around his body slowly extinguishing. He looked up and quietly gazed at the still flickering light gate of the ninth floor.

He remained silent for a long time, then his fingertips trembled slightly as he wiped away the trace of blood that had not yet dried from the corner of his mouth. The Azure Ring halo spun within his sea of consciousness, its light softening.

"Little Qinzi, you really should listen to me this time."

Qin Yu exhaled softly, his voice low and calm.

"Hmm... I understand. The threshold of the Annihilation Dawn Realm cannot be pried open by willpower alone. Forcing your way in will only lead to death outside the realm of concepts."

He raised his hand, the golden life runes in his palm lighting up once more, and reached out towards the [Stainless Silent Origin Sword Embryo] floating in the center of the void.

In that instant, the light and darkness of the entire eighth floor began to reverse—

Three thousand life-pattern array rings emerged from the ground at the heart of the tower, each ring rotating, folding, and burning, forming a magnificent three-dimensional star array. Streams of light—amber, purple-gold, and silver-blue—intertwined, like three cosmic rivers flowing simultaneously. The Stainless Silent Origin Sword Embryo slowly rose at the center of the array, surrounded by countless chaotic lotus petals that bloomed one by one, each petal reflecting a segment of the birth and destruction of a universe.

Boom--

Annihilation wind swept around the sword embryo. Light and darkness shattered simultaneously, and countless particles turned into star fragments that scattered in space. The Fate Ring beneath Qin Yu's feet was distorted by the impact, his robe was torn, but his aura became increasingly stable.

He took a deep breath and activated the [Limitless Yuan Absorption Art]. The Nine-Wheel True Evolution Dharma Wheel spun behind him, layer upon layer like stars converging to form a massive golden soul ring. The radiance of the Azure Ring unfolded simultaneously, resonating with the Nine-Wheel Dharma Wheel.

The distance between the halo and the sword embryo suddenly disappeared.

The moment Qin Yu extended his palm, the aura of Annihilation from the Stainless Silent Origin Sword Embryo did not repel him; instead, it trembled slightly, as if watching him—this was not the perception of the weapon spirit, but a response from the "origin of Annihilation."

In an instant--

The entire tower exploded!

The purple-gold and annihilated-white light surged into a torrent of ten thousand feet, countless chaotic lotus petals exploded in the air, galaxies collapsed, spacetime fractured, gravity reversed, and causal chains danced wildly like golden threads. That scene was like billions of universes being destroyed and reborn simultaneously.

Qin Yu gently placed his palm on the surface of the sword embryo. Instantly, a colorless light spread from his arm to his entire body, and the Azure Evolution Core slowly emerged between his brows.

A deafening roar exploded in his mind.

The Azure Evolution Core opened, and a pitch-black vortex of Annihilation slowly expanded, swallowing the Stainless Silent Origin Sword Embryo. Black and gold radiance flowed around him, transforming into a magnificent scroll of Fate Soul, with Azure Ring floating within it and a halo of light slowly rotating.

"Storage complete." Azure Ring's voice was gentle yet solemn. "The essence of this sword embryo has merged with your soul source. Once you step into the Annihilation Dawn Realm, awaken its true name."

Qin Yu slowly withdrew his palm, his gaze calm, his figure illuminated by the golden dust filling the air.

He looked back at the light gate on the ninth floor, his gaze deep and thoughtful.

"I will come back someday."

After saying that, he turned and walked towards the teleportation array in the center of the tower.

Rune arrays lit up beneath his feet, and billions of life patterns intertwined to form a spiraling golden storm. Purple-gold light converged like a galaxy, enveloping him as he slowly rose.

A whirlwind of Annihilation swept past his robes, Azure Ring floated on his shoulder, rotating slightly, reflecting the image of the Stainless Silent Origin Sword Embryo sleeping peacefully within the Azure Evolution Core.

The next second--

The entire eighth floor flashed, the light curtain reversed, and Qin Yu's figure was swallowed by the annihilating white light stream.

The teleportation array collapsed into billions of specks of light, which slowly drifted away in the air.

The Ancient Logic God-Cultivation Tower, has once again returned to tranquility.
