The Annihilation Blue Flower Sea, the Ancient Relic Structure Awakens
The wind on the Annihilation Wasteland Border always carries a broken stillness.
As Qin Yu stepped into a canyon, the pebbles beneath his feet were dappled by the fading light in the gray mist. The surrounding rock walls were layered upon layered, embedded with remnants of spiritual veins that had long since lost their warmth, as if the entire world had been drained of its life force in an instant. The Silent Origin Stainless Sword hung quietly behind him, its blade unseen, yet it caused the air currents in this space to tremble slightly.
He had only walked about ten feet when a cold, sharp sound echoed from the void.
Two figures leaped down from the height of the canyon, kicking up a cloud of dust as they landed. Both were clad in long gray-black robes, with silver seals of the characters "nine" and "connection" etched on their chests. They exuded a powerful aura of the Only Book Realm · Supreme —an aura carrying a rough and oppressive force, as if they were trying to inscribe the heavens and earth into their own rules.
Hey--where did this savage come from?
One of them grinned maliciously, his tone full of provocation and arrogance, "Dare to trespass on our Nine Alliances Gang's territory? Know your place and get out of here."
Qin Yu paused slightly, raising an eyebrow. A breeze swept past the hem of his clothes, carrying a faint sense of tranquility that instantly suppressed the aura released by the other party.
"What?" A faint smile played on his lips, his tone calm. "Does this Annihilation Wasteland Border really allow for such demarcation?"
The other person snorted coldly, and spiritual light exploded beneath his feet. Several spiritual patterns appeared on the rock wall, and the area markings they had carved were faintly visible.
"Nonsense! This is the exploration zone of our Nine Alliances Gang. All soul consciousness and life structure resources belong to our gang. Unauthorized personnel are strictly prohibited from entering!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the Spiritual Qi energy surged, and the entire canyon began to stir, as if forcing Qin Yu to back down.
At this moment, the wind and sand were swirling, and the sky was a deep, desolate gray, yet Qin Yu's expression remained calm.
The wind in the canyon suddenly became sharp. The two Nine Alliances Gang cultivators exchanged a glance, and the cold light in their eyes almost instantly turned into killing intent.
Qin Yu did not rush to make a move. He stood with his hands behind his back, his voice calm to the point of being indifferent. "I am merely passing through this place and have no intention of offending you. The Annihilation Wasteland Border is part of the Void Obliteration Domain. If you truly wish to defend it, you should be able to do so."
The air suddenly tensed the moment he finished speaking.
The two cultivators at the Only Book Realm · Supreme released their sword intent almost simultaneously.
One man drew his sword with lightning speed, the sword light stretching for hundreds of feet, its silvery radiance tearing through the mountain wall, turning rubble to ash; the other man formed hand seals, and an ancient, page-shaped spirit array appeared in the void, with countless spirit patterns flowing within the array, forming a giant seal of the character "retreat," which fiercely pressed down on Qin Yu.
The heavens and earth trembled, and spiritual pressure surged like a mountain.
Qin Yu raised his eyes and uttered calmly, "Mere sword intent dares to be so presumptuous before me."
The Silent Origin Stainless Sword slowly rose from behind. The sword's edge was not yet visible, but it already stirred the light of the entire space.
A clear, resonant sound, like the cracking sound of the universe at its beginning.
"The Soulless Annihilation Abyss Sword."
With a single, gentle stroke of the sword, the colors of the surrounding world vanished instantly, and the air in the collapsed canyon turned into a silent white. The souls of the two cultivators flickered between light and shadow, and in the next instant, their bodies, Spiritual Sense, soul essence, and traces of existence simultaneously disintegrated.
Before they could even scream, they were reduced to countless fragments of light, which were absorbed into a wisp of black and white lotus light at the tip of the Silent Origin Stainless Sword and completely annihilated.
The world returned to deathly silence. The wind in the canyon stopped, and the pebbles hovered in the air for a moment before silently falling.
Qin Yu calmly sheathed his sword, his eyes so calm as if nothing had happened, and murmured softly:
" In this Annihilation Wasteland, where is not a realm without a master?"
With a flick of his sleeve, he stepped out, the dust beneath his feet dissipating in the wind, his figure gradually Entering Stillness.
Deep within the canyon, swirling, gloomy clouds filled the air with the lingering aura of torn spiritual pressure. It was an extremely dark area, the cliff walls seemingly eroded by some ancient force, covered with dark patterns resembling blood vessels, emanating a faint red glow from the depths.
In a dense forest hidden by rocks, a man in black sat cross-legged in mid-air, his eyes closed, with a "mirror" floating behind him. Countless lights and shadows flowed on the mirror's surface, all of them the Fate Soul imprints of the Nine Alliances Gang disciples.
Sudden--
The two marks on the mirror suddenly shattered, making a dull "crack" sound. The two wisps of soul light vanished without a trace, like candle flames being extinguished.
The man in black opened his eyes. In that instant, the air in the entire ancient hall seemed to freeze.
"... Hmm?" He frowned, his eyes as deep as an abyss. "What happened... Xiao Kao, Xiao Yan, how come their Fate Soul have completely disappeared?"
He made a hand seal with his fingertips, and the mirror showed the faint images of the two of them, but he couldn't even find the thread of their destinies.
Something's not right.
The deep voice echoed in the hall, carrying an extremely strong sense of oppression. Then he suddenly stood up, his black robes fluttering, and his aura caused the surrounding spiritual array to tremble.
"Someone come here."
Two figures immediately flashed into the hall, a man and a woman, both at the Only Book Realm · Supreme Peak.
"Chief." They bowed in unison.
"Go to the canyon entrance to check the situation."
The man in black spoke with an undeniable chill, his voice like shattered metal, "Xiao Kao and Xiao Yan's Fate Soul have just been completely extinguished, without any backlash. This is not something a demonic beast from the Annihilation Wasteland Land could do—they were utterly Annihilation. Find out who did it."
"Yes." The two answered in unison, transforming into two streaks of light and speeding away towards the canyon.
The man in black sat down again, slowly placing his palm on the mirror. The mirror's surface trembled with light patterns, emanating an endless aura of annihilation.
"The Wasteland of Annihilation Wasteland... how could someone silently erase Fate Soul? If it weren't for their cultivation level being higher than Sole Book's..."
He gave a cold laugh, a dangerous glint flashing in his eyes.
"Hmph, whatever, anyone who dares to touch my Nine Alliances Gang is courting death."
In a certain area of Annihilation Wasteland Canyon, the world suddenly became eerily quiet.
That area seemed like a lost land sealed by time and dreams. The sky hung low, and the clouds flowed slowly like molten silver, emitting a layer of cold blue light. The ground was covered with a sea of blooming azure flowers, the petals trembling slightly in the silent wind, flowing with a faint ethereal glow, as if the stars in the night sky had been scattered on earth.
Qin Yu stepped inside, his footsteps lightly touching the ground. Fine patterns of light rippled out among the spiritual flowers, spreading like water. He looked up and saw broken ancient stone tablets and half-hidden ruins all around him. The broken tablets still bore the marks of time, like the remnants of an ancient temple that had collapsed.
Further away, a massive, tilted structure lies across the ground, resembling a divine warship from a long-extinct era. Its metal hull is now covered by azure vines, leaving only a broken skeleton. When the wind passes through the cracks, it emits a low, mournful sound.
The radiance of the blue flower flowed around Qin Yu, stretching his shadow to an extremely long length, as if it too merged into the boundless silence. The air was filled with the vibrations of ancient spiritual energy and some kind of suppressed "consciousness fluctuations," which seemed to whisper in the background.
Qin Yu stared at the desolate blue plain, a chill running down his spine. "This place... doesn't seem like a naturally formed gathering place of annihilating energy; it's more like—a world of memories constructed by someone."
He stepped deeper, and with each step he took, the spiritual light beneath his feet would subtly shift, as if triggering the echoes of some ancient array. The surrounding wind gradually subsided, the temperature of the space dropped little by little, and even time seemed to be compressed into a slow breath.
At this moment, this azure realm was as tranquil as a dream.
But at the end of a dream, an unknown truth often lies hidden.
Deep within the azure sea of flowers, spiritual light flowed like a tide. Qin Yu paused before a slightly raised area. The blue flowers there were even deeper, almost an obsidian-like azure, and beneath the flowers, a ring of ancient runes shimmered with a faint golden light, appearing and disappearing intermittently.
Qin Yu crouched down, his fingertips brushing across the air, his Spiritual Sense slowly seeping into the ground. Instantly—a silent tremor resounded from beneath his feet, as if some dormant mechanism had been triggered. Runes lit up, and countless rays of light flowed through the sea of flowers, converging into a perfect circular spiritual array. The array appeared in the void like a mirror, its patterns spiraling, and deep within it faintly reflected a "Void Realm," as if leading to another undefined space.
"... It really is an ancient structure." Qin Yu's eyes sharpened, and he was about to investigate its mysteries.
However, in the next instant, a chilling pressure suddenly swept through the depths of his consciousness.
Boom--
Beyond the canyon, the spiritual light between heaven and earth twisted in an instant! The petals of the azure flower were forcibly lifted, turning into countless specks of light that swirled back in the wind. The air seemed to be stripped away, and a "void pressure" beyond existence suddenly descended, causing the entire canyon space to groan.
Qin Yu's expression changed, and in an instant, his body disappeared into the void rift, vanishing without a trace.
The next moment, the sky completely darkened.
An "invisible wolf" slowly descended from the abyss of the void.
It has no form, yet possesses majesty; it has no substance, yet has a greater presence than any living being. It is a "virtual wolf" woven from countless fissures, each fissure devouring the remnants of time and space, with a "Pupil of Finality" suspended in its center, its pupil flowing with an annihilating light that reverses black and white. When it looks down upon the sea of flowers, all brilliance dims instantly, and the world seems to have been stripped of its "meaning of existence."
That is -- The Void Wolf Final Darkness, the Sourceless Annihilation Judgment.
It moves without a sound, yet with each slight movement, it causes the "defined structure" of the entire space to collapse instantly. Blue flowers turn to ashes, rock walls shatter, time vibrates, even the concept of wind is stripped away, leaving only a deathly silence and nothingness.
Qin Yu hid in the void rift, cold sweat beading on his forehead. The oppression did not come from power, but from the "fear of being rejected by the world"—as if he would be completely erased from the universe's conception if he were seen by that Pupil of Finality.
Azure Ring's voice rang out in his mind, tinged with unusual solemnity. "Little Qinzi, don't move... That's 'Void Crown Final Darkness,' one of the ancient demon gods of the Annihilation Dawn Realm · Final Phase. It was born from a fragment of the 'Undefined Domain,' the deepest manifestation of Annihilation from the Source of Epochless. That eye... can erase the 'possibility of being observed' of any existence. Once it sees you, you will disappear from all logic, and even I cannot call you back."
Qin Yu slightly concealed his aura, even completely sealing off his soul fluctuations, his mind as calm as a still lake.
Azure Ring whispered a reminder, "What it's looking for now... isn't you. Be patient and wait for it to leave. Remember, even the slightest leak of its aura will be detected by it."
Qin Yu stared intently into the distance. The "Void Crown Final Darkness" moved slowly, the azure flowers beneath its feet turning gray inch by inch, and the light of the void collapsing continuously. Only when its figure gradually disappeared at the end of the canyon did the colors of the world slowly return.
Qin Yu finally let out a slow breath, cold sweat trickling down his temples.
He knew in his heart that this "Void Crown Final Darkness" was no ordinary demonic beast, but a calamity-level existence capable of erasing "existence".
"The Annihilation Wasteland Border... actually harbors beings of this level." Qin Yu murmured softly, his gaze returning to the faintly shimmering spirit array.
The azure wind began to flow again, and the deathly silence between heaven and earth gradually dissipated. Qin Yu slowly opened his eyes, and only after confirming that the "Void Wolf Final Darkness" had completely disappeared from his senses did he steadily emerge from the void rift. His footsteps landed lightly, and a subtle ripple spread across the sea of flowers. All the spiritual flowers trembled gently around him, seemingly still recovering from the destructive pressure.
Qin Yu stared at the circular spirit array. At this moment, the golden patterns of the spirit array were fully revealed. The array patterns were deep and complex, like a galaxy rotating on its own. At the center was a constantly rotating "mirror-shaped vortex", seemingly leading to a deeper space.
He slowly raised his right hand, Silent Origin Stainless Sword trembled slightly. The sword transformed into a white light, emitting an extremely faint "No Definition fluctuation." The moment that light touched the core of the array, hundreds of intersecting chains of runes instantly appeared in the spirit array, like a three-dimensional star equation.
"This is... a remnant of the ancient logic array?" Qin Yu murmured, the array's structural logic rapidly appearing in his mind. A faint silver light shone in his pupils, and the deductive chapters from the * Silent Principle Void Annihilation Scripture * automatically unfolded in his mind, his Spiritual Sense beginning to analyze the array's "propositional formulas."
As his thoughts probed into it, the spirit array began to emit a low hum, and the ground trembled slightly. The mirror at the center of the array suddenly split into countless layers of light, each layer reflecting a different spatial projection: some showed images of ancient temples, some were fragments of spacetime, and several were endless voids of Silent Abyss.
Qin Yu's eyes sharpened, and he formed a hand seal, with silvery chains of cause and effect appearing at his fingertips.
"The Book of Fate Law - The Realm Severing Origin Brush - Composition: The Principles of Array Disassembly - The Root of Fate Retracing"
As he whispered, silver lines emerged from his palm, flowing like invisible ink across the spirit array. The runes gradually changed, the originally chaotic patterns rearranged into a complete cycle of destiny. A point of annihilated silver light appeared at the center of the spirit array, pulsating violently, as if some kind of seal was being awakened.
Suddenly--
Boom!!!
The ground of the entire canyon suddenly sank, and all the blue light of the flower sea was sucked into the center of the array! Qin Yu stood firmly in the center, and the surrounding space was completely torn apart, forming a ring-shaped energy vortex.
Light and shadow overlap continuously, and the spatial structure changes rapidly, constantly reconstructing geometric forms from two-dimensional to three-dimensional and then to hyperdimensional. Countless ancient inscriptions and symbols emerge from the surrounding broken walls, suspended in mid-air, transforming into murals with silent patterns. Each mural rotates on its own, as if attempting to reconstruct a forgotten world.
"The Annihilation Origin Reverse Construction Formation... is still operating." Qin Yu's gaze was calm as his Spiritual Sense continuously deduced within the array.
He used the Azure Evolution Core to mobilize his soul power, and a tiny wisp of Annihilation Abyss energy was injected into the core of the array. Every rune in the array emitted a crisp metallic resonance, like a plucked string. The sound gradually rose from low to high, transforming into a resounding bell like the tides of the universe. The light in the entire canyon was distorted, and even the nebulae in the sky were drawn into a huge vortex.
Azure Ring's voice appeared in his mind at the right moment, with a hint of suppressed respect. "This is not an ordinary remnant array... it is a 'Thought Realm Guiding Formation' left behind by the Ancient Logic Cultivation God, which can send consciousness into the 'Outer Layer of Logic,' where there may be fragments of the true realm he left behind in the past."
Qin Yu nodded slightly, took a deep breath, and gently trembled the Silent Origin Stainless Sword in his hand, its tip touching the center of the formation.
Suddenly --
The spirit array has fully awakened.
Ten thousand beams of blue light shot into the sky, transforming the entire canyon into a vortex of light. The earth's veins cracked, space folded, and Qin Yu's figure was swept into a stream of light interwoven with annihilation silver and deep blue. The sea of flowers, the rock walls, and the broken monument all slowly dissipated in the light, leaving only the radiance of the spirit array spinning endlessly between heaven and earth.
Azure Ring murmured softly, "Little Qinzi, this trip might truly mean witnessing the real remains of the Ancient Logic Cultivation God..."
The world was completely enveloped in white light, Qin Yu's figure, along with the light and shadow, plunged into an unknown abyss.
