Holy Radiance's Final Hunt, Void Obliteration's Shattered Sky

The heavens and earth roared, the dome cracked open, and holy light surged down like ten thousand golden flames. The Annihilation Void Land had been torn into dozens of fractures, spatial fragments floated in the air, and chaotic energy flowed into a sea.

At the heart of this intertwined light and destruction, Venerable Nanlan was covered in blood, half of his robe already burned to ashes. He gripped the Sacred Radiance Limitless tightly, the chaotic power within his body surging wildly, backfiring on his bloodline.

His breathing was heavy, but his gaze remained as cold and piercing as the stars.

At this moment, the surrounding space was completely locked down by three enormous auras.

In the sky, the blood-red Asura altar floated erratically, its crimson flames raging, reflecting countless Asura souls.

The Venerable Yuhuang stood in the void, his skin shimmering with hideous black and gold bone patterns, making him appear like an ancient god rising from hell.

"Nan Lan," he sneered, his voice so deep it seemed to crush mountains and rivers, "I advise you to honestly hand over the sacred treasure. That thing ultimately does not belong to your Chaos First Palace. If you remain obstinate, I have plenty of ways to make you wish you were dead."

Venerable Nanlan's aura exploded outwards, and chaotic vortexes swirled around him, forming countless layers of boundary walls.

He raised his hand, blood sliding from his palm, but his smile was cold, "Hmph, even if I die, I will never hand over the sacred treasure to your filthy Asura Divine Hall!"

Boom--

With a single palm strike, the power of chaos transformed into a hundred layers of light, stacked one upon another, as if the heavens were collapsing. The energy flowing between these light layers even folded spacetime.

However, the crimson Asura altar suddenly accelerated its rotation, and Venerable Yuhuang roared, "Asura Wheel Annihilation - Nine Abyss Prison!"

In an instant, the void shattered, and nine layers of blood prisons fell from the sky. Countless souls roared from each prison, crushing Nan Lan's defenses layer by layer. The sea of blood was like an inverted purgatory, and the aura of annihilation and curses intertwined to form a hellish storm.

"Hahaha--you old scoundrel, hand it over right now!"

Li Hanshou swept in from the other side, his figure merging with thousands of blood shadows, and the Soul-Hunting Spear in his hand suddenly grew to a hundred feet in size.

"Blood Hunt: Heaven's Punishment Line!"

That was an Ultimate hunting technique fueled by the soul—millions of blood threads shot out from the tip of the spear, weaving into a dense net that completely locked down Venerable Nanlan's aura!

Flame Marquis followed closely behind, his hands forming a hand seal, black flames surged into a sea, the raging fire scorched the void, and the heat wave distorted the entire space into a mirror.

"Annihilation Flame Silent Heaven Tribulation!"

The black flames transformed into a dragon, roaring as it pounced on Nan Lan. It was the fire of the empire, the flames that burned the realm, turning even the laws of nature to ashes wherever it passed.

Venerable Nanlan was almost simultaneously surrounded by three forces. In the instant that blood light, sea of flames, and Asura Soul Prison intertwined, the world collapsed.

His body trembled violently, and blood gushed from his mouth.

His chaotic robes shattered, and light and shadow broke into billions of pieces, but his eyes remained filled with unyielding spirit.

"Chaos... Immortal--!"

He clasped his hands together, and the Chaos Source Wheel within his body ignited completely, with the power of annihilation and creation exploding and intertwining within him.

"Chaos of Silent Origin: Return to the True Realm!"

With a deafening roar, the two polar energies of light and darkness exploded simultaneously!

The Sacred Radiance Limitless emanated countless layers of light before him, and what surged within the stream of light was not energy, but the origin of order.

This attack shattered the third layer of the Asura Nine Abysses, and even Venerable Yuhuang was forced back half a step by the aftershock.

The Soul-Hunting Spear in Li Hanshou's hand was shaken so badly that the tip shattered, Flame Marquis's Black Flame Dragon instantly collapsed into nothingness.

"You old bastard--!" Yuhuang roared, slamming down with both palms, creating a huge blood wheel seal!

Venerable Nanlan was blasted dozens of miles away, crashing heavily into a shattered spiritual mountain. The mountain collapsed, and streams of light poured down.

He fell to his knees, his bones shattered, blood dripping from his arms onto the Sacred Radiance Limitless.

At that very moment, his consciousness stirred slightly, and he gazed at the chaotic sky in the distance—

A familiar aura—it belonged to his disciple, Nan Yao.

Venerable Nanlan's gaze suddenly became exceptionally firm.

He channeled all the power of chaos into the Sacred Radiance Limitless in his hand, and his divine soul burned into a blazing inferno.

The Sacred Radiance Limitless emitted a piercing resonance, and the light layer expanded violently, as if it were about to tear apart the entire heavens.

The Venerable Yuhuang sensed the disturbance and his expression changed drastically: "Not good—he's going to—"

"Nan Yao!!!"

Venerable Nanlan roared with heart-wrenching fury, his voice echoing through the heavens.

With his last wisp of divine soul, he transformed the Sacred Radiance Limitless into a stream of light, piercing through all energy layers, becoming a trail of radiant light that shot straight towards the distant light curtain—

The direction where Nan Yao is located.

"Nan Yao, quickly take the sacred treasure and leave—return to the temple immediately—and tell the temple master and the ancestor everything!!!"

The tail of holy light ripped through the sky, and the heavens shattered completely in that instant. Countless specks of light fell, like the tears of a god.

Nan Yao's figure appeared from the chaotic shockwave in the distance. Her face was pale, and her Spiritual Sense was almost shattered. The beam of holy light seemed to cross time and space, shooting straight into her palm—the core imprint of the Sacred Radiance Limitless instantly appeared in her hand.

She froze. The light from her fingertips was piercingly hot, as if burning her Fate Soul.

That was an aura she knew all too well—the chaotic aura of her master, Venerable Nanlan.

"Master..." Her voice trembled, and tears welled up in her eyes.

She looked up and saw the Blood Prison falling from the sky, black flames burning, and the roars of Asura mingling with the hunting cries of Heavenly Fiends.

She saw the giant palm of the Venerable Yuhuang strike down with boundless blood flames, saw the hunting rifles of the Heavenly Sha Alliance pierce through the air, and saw her master—the figure she had followed countless times in her cultivation—swallowed up by the annihilating tide of light.

Heaven and earth fell silent.

A chaotic storm swept through, erasing all color.

At that moment, time seemed to stand still.

"Master--!!!!"

Nan Yao's heart-wrenching roar ripped through the void, tears mixed with blood sliding down her lips as her Spiritual Sense burned wildly.

She wanted to rush back, she wanted to use all her strength to tear apart that Asura hell, but the Sacred Radiance Limitless emanated a low hum in her palm, and the light suddenly expanded, enveloping her entire body.

She heard her master's final, shattering roar—

"Nan Yao, quickly take the sacred treasure and leave—return to the temple immediately—and tell the temple master and the ancestor everything!!!"

That was an order, but also a dying wish.

Tears blurred her vision. She gripped the Sacred Radiance Limitless, her robes billowing as she turned, her silhouette vanishing in the collapsing void in an instant.

The Heavenly Sha Alliance hunters and Asura Soul Shadows around them were still roaring and chasing after them, and the blood and flames dyed the sky into hell.

"Stop her! Chase after her!" Venerable Yuhuang roared, raising his palm. Tens of thousands of blood souls broke free from the altar and transformed into a stream of chasing souls.

Nan Yao did not turn around.

Her tears had dried in the wind, her Spiritual Sense resonated with the holy light, and her whole being transformed into a beam of radiant white light, piercing through layers of spatial rifts.

With each leap, a wave of exploding blood followed, but she gritted her teeth, her eyes burning with fury.

"Master... I will definitely carry your letter and your life back to the temple to report to the Ancestor."

Her voice was swallowed by the wind, leaving only an echo in the heavens and earth.

--Nan Yao, carrying the Sacred Radiance Limitless, vanished from the battlefield.

Behind her, the roaring waves of the Asura Divine Hall and the Heavenly Sha Alliance continued, blood flames surged like a tide, and mountains and rivers were burned to ashes.

The winds of the era swept across the battlefield of Annihilation, carrying away a woman's tear and the last bond between master and disciple.

Tears and blood fell at the same time.

The Sacred Radiance Limitless light burst through the void, carrying billions of divine powers as it hurtled away, its tail slicing through the sky like a divine miracle.

The next moment--

Boom!!!!!!

With Venerable Yuhuang slammed down with his palm, unleashing a torrent of blood-red light that completely engulfed Venerable Nanlan.

Mountains and rivers shattered, the void collapsed, and heaven and earth lost their color.

The Sacred Radiance Limitless light has vanished into the sky.

The figure of Venerable Nanlan was completely reduced to ashes amidst the fusion of light and blood.

The elder of the Chaos Return to Oneness Palace has perished.

The winds of Annihilation Void howled and rose.

The figures of the three powerful figures were frozen in the flames and sea of blood.

Only that fading trace of holy radiance remains, like the last hope of an era.

Amidst endless fading light—it traces a path that is both exquisitely beautiful and tragically poignant.

The Annihilation Void shattered completely, the sky torn open by the aftershocks of the Holy Light, countless cracks appearing. Fragments of light and crimson flames intertwined to form a raging torrent of chaos. The air currents of heaven and earth reversed, and all things roared. The Venerable Yuhuang stood atop the collapsed Holy Radiance Mountain Range, his Blood Prison Throne slowly rising behind him, nine layers of blood rivers cascading down, converging into the Abyss of Ten Thousand Souls. The Yuhuang Emperor's eyes, like lamps of purgatory, burned with a terrifying crimson light. He ripped open the void with a single palm strike, his roar shattering half the dome, "--Chase her!! We absolutely cannot let that little brat escape back to the Chaos First Palace!!"

The aura of Silent Profundity emanating from him erupted like a raging sea, and crimson spiritual patterns crisscrossed around him, like the veins of an ancient god awakening. In the next instant, he transformed into a crimson star ring and soared into the sky.

At the same time, Li Hanshou, the chief hunter of the Heavenly Sha Alliance, also took to the air. His silver-gray cloak fluttered in the fierce wind, Soul-Hunting Spear extended in his hand into a dark red spear hundreds of feet long, its shaft shimmering with thousands of hunting patterns. It was a weapon of slaughter forged from the fusion of countless living souls. Li Hanshou's eyes were cold, and his voice was deep, like a roar from the abyss, "She can't escape! Those pseudo-saints from the Chaos First Palace can't protect her! Everyone—split into three groups and cut off her escape route! I want her to suffer a fate worse than death!"

As soon as the words fell, the sky instantly erupted in chaos. The hunters of the Heavenly Sha Alliance unleashed their auras in unison, transforming into countless blood shadows. Their Soul-Hunting Spears streaked through the air, leaving behind countless afterimages, like a river of blood flowing into the heavens. The disciples of the Asura Divine Hall also roared as they activated the Asura Seal, with Asura phantoms appearing behind them, their blood-red blades unsheathed and their soul flames blazing in the sky.

"Kill--!"

The heavens and earth roared, and waves of blood flames swept across thousands of miles. Venerable Yuhuang stood on the Blood Prison, and Li Hanshou Soul-Hunting Spear. The two Supreme experts chased after each other one after the other. Behind them were hundreds of Annihilation Dawn and Annihilation Profundity Realm cultivators, forming two enormous blood tides, their killing intent like a world-destroying wind.

In the distance, Nan Yao, draped in chaotic light feathers, shone with an unparalleled Sacred Radiance Limitless in her palm, a light so intense it was almost blinding. Her face was deathly pale, her breath ragged, but her gaze was resolute. Behind her, countless blood shadows and the fury of Asura nearly dyed the entire sky crimson. She gritted her teeth, forcibly suppressing the chaotic spiritual energy surging within her body, and circulated her secret technique.

"Chaos Unification, Silent Realm Splitting - Open!"

Her arms suddenly spread out, and the chaotic power within her erupted like a volcano, transforming into countless rays of light that shot towards the heavens. The void seemed to be cleaved open by a giant axe, splitting open a silver light path leading to the distance. The Sacred Radiance Limitless with it, and the spacetime outside the light path collapsed layer by layer, forming a "boundary outside the boundary" that allowed her to travel alone.

The Venerable Yuhuang roared and chased after him with a palm strike, "You little bitch! You can't escape the Void Obliteration Realm!!"

Li Hanshou hurled his spear, the Soul-Hunting Spear transforming into crimson lightning that instantly traversed thousands of feet of void, striking directly at Nan Yao's back.

"Holy Radiance Realm Defense!"

Nan Yao swung her hand back, and the Sacred Radiance Limitless in her palm erupted with billions of divine lights. Layers of light walls rapidly stacked up, forcefully blocking the blood spear. The blood spear shattered inch by inch in the light, turning into a rain of blood that filled the sky.

She seized the opportunity to leap into the beam of light, her figure disappearing into the dazzling cracks of light.

Boom!!!!

The void collapsed, spacetime reversed, and the Realm Splitting closed completely the moment she left, leaving only countless blood shadows roaring wildly in the air.

The Venerable Yuhuang's eyes were bloodshot as he shattered the void with a single palm strike, his roar like thunder, "Damn it! Chase her! Even if she escapes beyond this realm, we will drag her soul back!!!"

A cold glint flashed in Li Hanshou's eyes as he turned and shouted, "Hunters, activate the Soul Annihilation Realm-Seeking Formation —lock onto her aura! Chase—!"

Countless disciples from the Heavenly Sha Alliance and the Asura Divine Hall roared in unison, their spiritual energy intertwining into a blood-red vortex. Sonic booms that tore through the dome echoed one after another, plunging the entire Annihilation Void Southern Heaven into the most violent chaotic battle and pursuit.

Nan Yao's figure gradually disappeared into the depths of the Realm Splitting, the Sacred Radiance Limitless on her chest growing ever brighter.

At that moment, it seemed as if all the light in the entire Void Obliteration Realm was absorbed by the radiance in her hand.
