The Lord of Void Tribulation's Illusory Destruction Light Words

The core of the Void Obliteration Domain Lingyao Immortal Palace.

A life-force storm is raging.

It was a chaotic scene that even "existence" could not fully describe. Heaven and earth had no up or down, no boundaries, only countless torn streams of time intertwining in space, like billions of inverted giant serpents of light roaring and writhing in the void.

Qin Yu stood in the center of the storm, his long hair flying, the Silent Origin Stainless Sword held horizontally beside him. As his clothes fluttered, an aura of annihilation slowly spread from his body, and the space beneath his feet seemed to shatter like glass.

Amidst the storm, the "Gate of Shadow Birth" of another world has been fully opened. It is a vortex constructed from ten thousand layers of blood-red spacetime, with terrifying beings from another era constantly spewing forth from the deepest rifts at its center.

The forms of those otherworldly beings were extremely bizarre.

Some were like faceless giants, their bodies so large they blotted out the sky, their skin flowing with "anti-entropy runes";

Some transformed into pure time-flowing shadows, resembling human figures but devoid of life fluctuations;

Others floated in the air, merely enormous pupils reflecting the collapsing future of the entire Void Obliteration Domain.

When the first otherworldly light surged towards Qin Yu, the boundaries of time and space were instantly torn apart. That light was not energy, but a torrent of concepts; anything touched by it was forced to rewrite itself into an "Undefined State."

Qin Yu remained calm, Silent Origin Stainless Sword in his hand trembled slightly as a silent sword light slid out from his side.

"The Silent Origin Stainless Sword - Causeless Illusory Destruction"

The moment the sword was drawn, the Realm Silence.

The sword light had no trajectory, no color, and even heaven and earth could not record its existence. It gently grazed the edge of the storm, and the forms of dozens of otherworldly beings began to disintegrate—their existence was erased from the "time record," leaving not even a sound of falling.

However, the interdimensional gate in the storm did not cease. On the contrary, stimulated by this power, even more living beings poured out.

"Not bad... So you're a cultivator from the Source of Epochless."

A deep voice emanated from the depths of the storm; it was not language, but a direct transmission of "logical fluctuations." As the voice appeared, a massive, imperceptible black shadow emerged from the crevice.

That was the ruler of another world— the Lord of Void Tribulation, clad in armor with flowing fragments of stars, his eyes like a collapsing galaxy.

He looked down at Qin Yu, his voice carrying an ancient chill. "Your realm is dead, your life force is in chaos, why do you still resist annihilation?"

Qin Yu raised his head, a glint of annihilation in his eyes, and replied calmly, "I don't resist annihilation; I simply won't allow you to define my world."

As soon as he finished speaking, the annihilation energy exploded within his body, and Azure Ring's aura instantly resonated with him. Rings of annihilation imprints spread through the void, completely absorbing the colors of heaven and earth.

The Lord of Void Tribulation stretched out his hand, and a heavy spear constructed from stars materialized from the void. He hurled it out suddenly, and the spear's light pierced through billions of layers of space, carrying a power capable of destroying a temple.

Qin Yu remained standing still, and a radiant pattern appeared between his brows.

"Heavenly Annihilation - Supreme Emperor's Annihilation: Final Abyss Judgment!"

The world suddenly changed, the storm was forcibly torn apart, and a black-gold rift of Annihilation stretched across tens of thousands of miles in the void. That rift was not a shattering of space, but a cutting of the "conceptual layer"—it directly separated "existence" from "non-existence"!

The giant spear instantly disintegrated before the crack, and the body of the Lord of Void Tribulation was pulled into the Abyss of Annihilation in an instant. His divine consciousness twisted and spread continuously, trying to break free, but was completely annihilated by the aura of Severed Observation on Qin Yu's sword.

Boom!!!

The light burst into silence, and the storm fell still.

A few breaths later, the figures of all the otherworldly beings turned into fragments and fell into that lightless abyss.

As the storm subsided, the bottom of the Life Origin Core was revealed—a massive "Life Origin Heart Wheel," its surface inscribed with countless engravings of destiny, trembling violently as if weeping or calling out.

Qin Yu sheathed his sword, his gaze grave.

"The Life Origin Core has been tampered with... Someone is using the power of another world to rewrite the root of Annihilation Void."

Qin Yu's voice echoed in the silent space, and the black-gold light patterns continued to flow on the surface of the Life Origin Heart Wheel. Just then—at the center of the entire Life Source Storm, the light suddenly collapsed inward.

"The Life Origin Core has been tampered with... Someone is using the power of another world to rewrite the roots of the Celestial Palace."

Qin Yu raised his head, the mark of Annihilation between his brows flashing with an ominous light. Extinguished Light stood behind him, her gauze dress billowing, her silver hair cascading down like a waterfall, and stardust swirling around her fingertips. At that very moment, a deep, chaotic roar, echoing through multiple times, came from the depths of the storm.

--boom!!!

The space above the Life Origin Core suddenly exploded.

From the torn rift, a colossal creature slowly crawled out. Its body was pieced together from countless shattered fragments of spacetime, each scale a fragment of a collapsed universe, within which flowed the light of annihilation and rebirth.

The creature's head was a fusion of three different faces—the front being a pitch-black, pupil-less "illusory face," the left being a constantly aging and collapsing "face of time," and the right being a "face of fate" that was growing backward. Its limbs were like inverted towers of light, each step causing space to collapse backward.

It slowly opened its mouth, and the sound was not a sound wave, but a vibration of "the definition of existence".

"... The root of Annihilation Void... is within you... Your life force will be devoured, and you will become the material for rewriting."

Extinguished Light raised her eyes, a flash of brilliance in them, her voice as cold as ice. "Scum from another world, how dare you speak so presumptuously about the origin of life?"

The creature's pupil-less eyes reflected the images of Qin Yu and the Extinguished Light. Its voice twisted into multiple tones. "You... the remnants of light and annihilation... are just what I crave. By devouring you, I can rebuild the lifeblood of Annihilation Void and step beyond reality."

It roared, and a black nebula erupted from its chest. Billions of shattered time nodes fell like a meteor shower, transforming into a vortex that stretched for thousands of miles, sweeping towards Qin Yu and Extinguished Light.

"Extinguished Light," Qin Yu called softly.

Extinguished Light's eyes flickered slightly, her silver hair billowed, and a cascade of annihilating light instantly enveloped her. She slowly raised the crystal-blue light-bladed longsword, her voice ruthless. "Annihilation Light Judging Lord - Sever and Establish Realm Causes!"

As she unleashed her sword strike, the laws of the entire space instantly froze—light and darkness, time and destiny were all forcibly halted. The movements of the otherworldly beings were immediately pinned in mid-air, and the surrounding flow of time, like torn water, remained suspended motionless.

At the same time, Qin Yu raised his hand, holding the Silent Origin Stainless Sword horizontally in front of his chest, and whispered as if from the depths of the universe, "Silent Origin Stainless Sword - Undefined Destruction Sword."

Boom!!!

A streak of black-gold light pierced through the frozen space. The instant the sword struck, time restarted—only to be completely erased the moment it began.

The otherworldly being's body was simultaneously engulfed by light and silence. Its three faces began to collapse, disintegrate, and split. Its roar was swallowed by the light, turning into countless fragments of epochal fire that exploded in the storm and ultimately returned to nothingness.

As the light and dust dissipated, the storm of life force also ceased.

Qin Yu and Extinguished Light stood in the silence, surrounded only by the slowly rotating Life Origin Heart Wheel. Extinguished Light gently stroked the sword, his silver eyes slightly lowered. "The pollution from the other world has seeped into the depths of my Life Source... The laws of the Immortal Palace are being rewritten by the outside world."

Qin Yu sheathed his sword, his voice low and deep. "This means—the real enemy has yet to appear."

He reached out and made a sweeping motion in the air, opening a curtain of light. The two figures slowly merged into the rift, returning to a side hall of the Lingyao Immortal Palace.

The hall was eerily silent, with dust floating at the boundary between the golden light and shadow. Extinguished Light stood with her eyes closed, the surrounding radiant light enveloping her and Qin Yu in a tranquil sea of light.

However, on the other end—

The Annihilation Radiance Final Spirit slowly walked down the broken stone steps.

Her bare feet lightly touched the ground, the bell rang silently, and the air was tinged with gray by her presence. Her head was tilted slightly, and a curious smile appeared on her youthful face.

She stopped in front of a collapsed palace, a faint silver glint in her eyes.

"Huh..."

She gently raised her head, sniffed the air, and slowly smiled, "There's one more."

Her smile was innocent and naive, but her eyes held a chillingly cold glint.

"That's perfect," she chuckled softly, then with a light tap of her toes, she vanished into thin air, turning into a streak of shimmering light. "I'll start by finding you—to vent my anger."

Lingyao Immortal Palace, where light and shadow intertwine.

The aftershocks of the Life Source Storm had not yet completely subsided. Outside the side hall of the Lingyao Immortal Palace, fragments of starlight and annihilation dust still lingered on the shattered dome. Extinguished Light stood quietly beside Qin Yu, her silver hair falling over her shoulders, and the surging light of Annihilation undulated at her feet. In the air, a faint, strange aura slowly approached.

It's a kind of presence that can't be defined. It has no physical form, yet it can make people feel the oppressive feeling of "being deprived of their sight".

Qin Yu raised his head slightly, his gaze fixed on the direction of the palace gate.

A light footstep sounded from the silence. The bell rang silently, yet it stirred ripples deep within the soul.

It was a little girl.

She slowly walked into the interplay of light and shadow, her toes barely touching the ground. Her gauze dress was like a dream, her black hair reaching her ankles, and her eyes shimmered with silver light. She looked no more than nine years old, a serene smile on her lips, her hands clasped behind her back, like an innocent child.

"Brother..." Her voice was childish, yet filled with an irresistible tenderness, "Is this... your place? I'm lost. So many lights, so many sounds, I can't find my way home."

Her tone was so pure it was almost flawless, each syllable carrying the warmth of "definition of existence," as if the entire space would automatically adjust its logic to "accept her lies as truth" simply by speaking.

His Extinguished Light eyes narrowed instantly.

The moment she turned her head and looked at the little girl, the Radiant Star Mark between her brows flashed, and the temperature in the entire side hall plummeted. She didn't speak, but simply transmitted her voice softly through divine sense, her words slowly echoing in Qin Yu's mind:

"Qin Yu, she is not human. Her aura... carries the reverse fluctuation of the Life Origin Final Law; she is a being from the 'Return to Zero Realm'."

Qin Yu's brow twitched slightly, but his expression remained calm. He slowly extended his hand and smiled at the little girl.

"Lost?" Qin Yu's voice was gentle and without hostility. "This place is indeed dangerous. It's not safe for you to be here alone."

The little girl blinked, a slight smile playing on her lips. "Brother is so kind. Everyone else is afraid of me, aren't you afraid of me?"

Qin Yu's smile faded slightly, his tone calm. "What's the use of being afraid? In this Void Obliteration Domain, fear can't save your life."

She smiled softly, a smile as innocent yet eerie as starlight swaying in the wind. With a wave of her small hand, a wisp of silver light spilled from her fingertips, landing on the broken ground and transforming into a translucent lotus of light, shimmering faintly.

"This is for my brother... as a way of thanking you for not being afraid of me."

Extinguished Light's divine sense had now completely locked onto that energy. A radiant glow flickered between her brows, yet she remained still and undisturbed. Her voice continued to echo within Qin Yu's sea of consciousness.

"Little Qinzi, she's testing you. The structure of that lotus of light is a 'definition recombination body.' If you touch it, she can read your fundamental existence through the resonance of your destiny."

Qin Yu's gaze swept over the lotus of light, his heart remaining calm, and a faint smile still lingering on his face.

"So beautiful," he murmured, and before reaching out to touch it, the Clear Evolution Core within his body slowly resonated. The spiritual energy of the Azure Ring surged deep within, constructing a "Anti-Fate Trajectory Realm Layer" that quietly enveloped his entire body.

He casually reached out and gently touched the lotus.

In an instant, the light in the hall changed dramatically!

The silver lines in the little girl's eyes spun rapidly, and the space of the entire palace was twisted into a spiral—countless transparent threads of destiny burst out from the lotus of light, frantically trying to cling to Qin Yu's body.

However, the moment they touched it, they were all absorbed and deflected by the "anti-fate" layer, rolling back towards the little girl.

"Huh?" She tilted her head slightly, a look of confusion on her face.

"Brother, you're so strange... Why can't I see your destiny?"

Qin Yu smiled slightly, but a cold glint flashed in his eyes.

"You're mistaken," he said in a low voice, his tone calm to the point of being almost ruthless, "Because I've long since left time."

As soon as the words fell—

The light in the entire side hall froze completely, and the Extinguished Light sword intent silently unfolded, locking the little girl and the surrounding space at the same time.

Silver light and annihilation light intertwined in the air, as if the still air was being torn apart by an invisible hand.

The little girl smiled, her voice sweet yet tinged with an almost cruel innocence. "So it was you... the one chosen by fate. How interesting."

Her body gradually disintegrated into silver stardust, her childish yet icy whispers echoing in the void:

"Now that we've found it, let's go somewhere else to play."

As she vanished, all the radiant light in the hall briefly lost its color, leaving only a cold, silent echo.

Extinguished Light his sword, exhaled softly, and his gaze became deep and unfathomable.

"She's spotted us."

Qin Yu nodded and said in a deep voice, "Very good, she thinks we've taken the bait. Now... it's our turn to see her true colors."

The two looked at each other in silence, an aura of light and annihilation flowing through the hall.
