381: Ultimate Primal Power

Hum—!

The dao rhyme erupting from within Lin Yuan was like the first ray of light at the dawn of the Universe's Creation, and yet, it was also like the final silent cry of all things returning to the Chaos Return to Ruin!

It transcended the concepts of time and space, instantly covering the entire core battlefield of the 903 Divine Domain, and even pierced through the barriers of the Divine Domain, spreading toward the more distant Chaos Mother Sea!

Every living being, regardless of strength or faction, felt as if their Soul had been gripped tightly by an invisible giant hand!

Abyss Without Path and Yan, who were locked in fierce combat, both froze simultaneously, their terrifying killing moves seemingly hit with a pause button!

Abyss Without Path's eyes erupted with incredulous joy, while Yan's eyes, which burned with dark golden Soul fire, revealed a strong sense of panic for the first time!

The location where Lin Yuan stood had been completely enveloped by a radiance whose color defied description.

That radiance contained Primordial Purple Qi within and displayed the black light of the Gui Xu Nether Domain on the outside; the Chaos Qi surged like the raging waves of a stormy sea. The Lava Star Domain, the Gui Xu Nether Domain, and the Nirvana Star Domain shone upon one another within it. Billions of clear and resilient Law chains, like a brilliant neural network of the Universe, ran through every part, maintaining the operation of this nascent Universe!

A supreme pressure, surpassing the Myriad Dao, governing the Grandmist and the Gui Xu, and evolving the cycle of life, death, and Reincarnation, slowly spread out like an awakening Primordial giant god!

This pressure was not intentionally released but was the natural outflow after the leap in the level of life and the establishment of the status of the internal world!

The light slowly converged, revealing Lin Yuan's figure.

He was still clad in his fluttering black robe, but his temperament had undergone a heaven-shaking, earth-shattering change.

In his deep eyes, the Chaos Sea had transformed into an boundless Grandmist star nebula, and at the center of the nebula was a deep Gui Xu singularity, where life and death rotated, as if containing the ultimate mysteries of the Universe.

With every gesture, space naturally submitted, the flow of time was slightly adjusted, and an aura of Perfection—Hunyuan as one, impervious to all Laws—enveloped his entire body.

He slowly raised his right hand, his five fingers slightly spread, and a strange stream of Qi—flowing with Primordial Purple Qi and the black light of the Gui Xu, seemingly composed of the scenes of countless miniature universe life and death cycles—lingered at his fingertips: the Ultimate Hunyuan Power!

"A mere First Stage Primordial Universe Prototype has provided me with a feedback of one million Hunyuan Power. If I can reach the Ten-Stage Perfection state of the Primordial Universe Prototype, the feedback power will reach ten million! If I cannot obtain enough resources, I fear it will be difficult to break through the shackles of the Hunyuan Realm in this lifetime! Then, I must hurry and hunt!"

Lin Yuan felt the unprecedented, vast power surging within his body, as well as that internal Universe which, although just having reached the first stage of the prototype, had infinite potential and was already operating stably. A cold arc curved at the corner of his mouth.

"Dark Abyss crawler, now, it is your turn."

His gaze, like a sharp blade piercing through space, instantly locked onto the Dark Abyss Prince Yan, who was stunned and suspicious, shaken by the Grandmist dao rhyme!

"Impossible!" Yan's voice carried a trace of incredulous shrieking. "You insect from a low-level plane, how could you possibly open up a Grandmist Level Universe?! This is absolutely impossible! You must have stolen the core fortune of the Hongmeng Origin World! You thief!!"

In a mix of shock and rage, Yan's killing intent instantly boiled to the Peak!

Lin Yuan's existence had already seriously threatened his schemes for the Hongmeng Origin World and even threatened the future plans of the Dark Abyss Plane! This child must be eliminated at all costs!

"Eternal Silence · World-Breaking Spear! Myriad Souls Devour Dao!" Yan no longer held back. Behind him, the phantom of his Dark Abyss origin universe burned crazily. That Dark Abyss bone spear, which had once pierced through the Void Realm, condensed once again. But this time, the spear shaft was entwined with billions of painfully twisted Dark Abyss resentful Souls radiating extreme malice!

These resentful Souls were formed from the remnant thoughts of countless devoured living beings within his Universe, containing vicious curses that could pollute the Dao Heart and erode the origin universe! The bone spear, carrying the terrifying power to annihilate all Laws and pollute eternity, tore through space and stabbed directly at Lin Yuan! Its power far exceeded that of the spear that had previously attacked Abyss Without Path!

"Lin Yuan, be careful! That resentful Soul curse is exceptionally vicious!" Abyss Without Path's expression changed slightly, and he was about to step in to help.

"Your Highness, there is no need." Lin Yuan's voice was calm and confident. He stepped forward, blocking in front of Abyss Without Path, and faced the bone spear that destroyed heaven and earth. "It is just right to use him... to test my newly born 'Finality' power."

Facing that terrifying bone spear entwined with billions of resentful Souls and radiating the dual Laws of pollution and annihilation, Lin Yuan did not even draw his sword. He simply slowly raised his right hand, which was wreathed in Ultimate Hunyuan Power, spread his five fingers, and gently gripped the spear tip that was piercing the Void Realm.

From his mouth, he uttered two words, so calm they made one's bone marrow freeze:

"Gui Xu."

Hum—!

This time, it was no longer a point condensing in his palm. Instead, with Lin Yuan as the center, an absolute "Void" Domain, whose form defied description and which seemed to be the embodiment of the Universe's end itself, instantly expanded!

End of Myriad Dao (Passive) — Triggered! But at this moment, it was no longer a simple passive annihilation; it was the ultimate control over the Gui Xu Finality Law, fused after Lin Yuan's own Primordial Universe Prototype reached the first stage! Its power surged with the qualitative change in Hunyuan Power! More importantly, it had gained the characteristic of "active guidance"!

The moment this "Finality Domain" appeared:

Time stopped flowing.

Space lost the meaning of existence.

Light was completely swallowed.

Sound returned to eternal silence.

Energy, whether it was the violent Dark Abyss death energy or the escaping Primordial Purple Qi, was like a flame thrown into absolute zero; it was instantly extinguished, frozen, and returned to absolute "Nothingness"!

That Dark Abyss bone spear with its towering power, the moment it touched the edge of the "Finality Domain," was like light falling into a black hole; it did not even cause a ripple before it silently... vanished!

The power of the Dark Abyss origin universe that constituted the spear shaft? It was forcibly annihilated!

The curse of billions of resentful Souls entwined upon it? The moment they touched the "Finality," they could not even let out a wail before they completely turned into nothingness, as if they had never existed!

Those vicious thoughts that were enough to pollute the Dao Heart of the Saint Realm? In the face of absolute "Nothingness," they vanished like smoke!

This was no longer a confrontation of power, but an absolute crushing of status and rules! The Finality Law of the Primordial Universe Prototype was a complete negation of the power of a secondary origin universe like the Dark Abyss!

"Pfft—!" Yan, whose mind was connected to the bone spear, felt as if he had been struck by a heavy cosmic hammer! The jet-black bone armor covering his entire body was instantly covered in spiderweb-like cracks, and the dark golden demonic patterns flickered crazily before rapidly dimming!

The rotating phantom of the Dark Abyss origin universe behind him vibrated violently, its edges beginning to blur and collapse! A terrifying backlash originating from the origin universe, which had been forcibly "erased" in part, made him let out a miserable, distorted scream!

"No! My origin universe! This is impossible!!" Yan's shock had turned into boundless fear! The power of the Dark Abyss origin universe he was so proud of was as fragile as a bubble under the other's casual grip! This subverted his cognition of the past million years!

"Crawler, your clamor ends here." Lin Yuan's voice was like the sentence of the Grim Reaper, incomparably clear in the absolute silence. His clenched right hand slowly opened.

With the opening of his palm, the "Finality Domain" that enveloped everything did not disappear. Instead, as if it possessed life, it followed his will... and spread forward! The target was none other than the Dark Abyss Prince Yan, whose aura had plummeted and whose origin universe had suffered heavy damage!

Yan was terrified out of his wits! He felt it! That "Void" spreading over was the true end! It was a cosmic-level erasure that even a Hunyuan Realm Peak like him, who possessed an origin universe, could not resist! He burned his Origin crazily, attempting to tear through space and escape, but the surrounding spacetime had long been frozen and solidified by the afterglow of the "Finality Domain," as tough as the crystal wall of the Universe!

"Dark Abyss protection! My Lord..." Yan let out a desperate, roaring cry for help, attempting to communicate with the supreme will deep within the Dark Abyss Plane.

However, the only response he received was that silent, all-consuming... Finality!

"Be annihilated." Lin Yuan spread his five fingers completely.

Hum!

The Finality Domain instantly swept across Yan's body.

There was no explosion, no light and shadow, no wreckage.

The Dark Abyss Prince Yan, along with the phantom of his broken Dark Abyss origin universe, was gently erased from the cosmic canvas as if by an eraser with the highest authority, disappearing completely. In his place, there remained only a piece of absolute purity, a... blank space where even the concept of "Void" seemed superfluous.

A Hunyuan Realm tycoon who possessed a Fourth Stage origin universe Prototype, a prince of the Dark Abyss Plane, was completely... erased by a single move of "Finality" after Lin Yuan advanced to the First Stage Primordial Universe Prototype!

Dead silence!

A dead silence, more thorough than at any previous moment, enveloped the entire battlefield!

Whether it was the soldiers of the Zhenyuan Army who were clearing out the remaining enemies, the miscellaneous fish from other planes trembling in the distance who had luckily survived, or even Abyss Without Path himself, everyone stood as if petrified, staring blankly at that blank area, looking at the black-robed figure who floated quietly at the edge of the blank space, as if he had only done a trivial thing.

Instantly killing Bone-less, forcibly swallowing Fen Yu, detonating Chen Yan, and resisting Devour Cosmos Nether Skeleton... these battle records were already shocking enough. But at this moment, casually "erasing" a controller of a Fourth Stage origin universe Prototype? This already exceeded the scope of what the Hunyuan Realm could understand!

Abyss Without Path took a deep breath, suppressing the monstrous waves in his heart, and looked at Lin Yuan with a gaze full of unprecedented solemnity and a trace of... awe. He said in a deep voice: "Lin Yuan, this 'Finality' power of yours... has touched the Saint Realm! No, it has even... reached the Saint King Realm!"

Lin Yuan slowly withdrew his right hand, and the heart-palpitating Finality Domain around his body quietly dissipated. Feeling the Ultimate Hunyuan Power surging within his body and the Primordial Universe Prototype that was operating stably and had infinite potential, he said calmly: "Your Highness overpraises. It is just a glimpse of the path, borrowing the advantage of the Universe's status. The true Peak of the Saint King is far from what I can reach."

His gaze swept across the completely cleared battlefield and looked at Abyss Without Path: "Your Highness, where are the one hundred legions you promised? The 'locusts' of this 903 Divine Domain have not been cleaned up yet. My Universe... is still very 'hungry'."

Upon hearing this, Abyss Without Path's eyes erupted with scorching light, and he laughed heroically: "Hahaha! Good! Satisfying! This Palace's words are as heavy as nine tripods! Zhenyuan Army, take orders!"

"This General is here!" A bearded general clad in heavy armor with dark golden Dragon patterns, whose aura had reached the Peak of the Hunyuan Realm, stepped on the Void Realm and instantly appeared before Abyss Without Path, kneeling on one knee, his voice like a booming bell. He was the vanguard commander of the Zhenyuan Army — — Dragon Fighting Wilderness!

"From this day forth, the First to the One Hundredth Legions of the Zhenyuan Army, one hundred million Hunyuan soldiers, are under the command of Star Lord Lin! The order of Star Lord Lin is the order of this Palace! Those who disobey, behead!" Abyss Without Path's voice resonated throughout the Universe, carrying the unquestionable imperial majesty!

"This General accepts the order!" Dragon Fighting Wilderness did not hesitate, turned to face Lin Yuan, and clasped his fists with a boom: "This General, Dragon Fighting Wilderness, leads the First to the One Hundredth Legions of the Zhenyuan Army, one hundred million men, waiting for the dispatch of Star Lord Lin! Through mountains of blades and seas of fire, we will not refuse even death!" Behind him, one hundred million Hunyuan Realm soldiers roared in unison, the sound wave like a tide, shaking the stars:

"Willing to die for the Star Lord!"

One hundred million Hunyuan Realm! Formed into a battle array! The Evil Qi rushed to the sky! This power was enough to sweep across a top-tier faction! At this moment, it was all under Lin Yuan's command!

Lin Yuan looked at the steel torrent before him, feeling the war will that was sufficient to crush everything, gathered from the one hundred million Hunyuan auras, and the Primordial Universe Prototype within his body transmitted an even greedier throb. A cold and cruel arc curved at the corner of his mouth, like a king holding the power of life and death, and he slowly raised his finger to point toward the areas deep in the Divine Domain where there were still fluctuations of other-plane auras!

"Target one: Clear out all remaining miscellaneous fish from other planes, leave no survivors!"

"Target two: Whenever you encounter a Hunyuan Realm whose internal world is a Universe Prototype, report it to me immediately! Let them become the resources for the growth of my Universe Prototype!"

"Target three: Hunt in the peripheral areas of the Hongmeng Origin World, anyone who approaches, kill without mercy!"

"Now..."

Lin Yuan's voice was like ten-thousand-year ice, carrying the killing intent to end everything:

"Follow me... to war!"
