76: The wheel of destiny returns to its true form, the starry sky burns eternally.

Chen Feng is on the verge of Possession by xingtians will, and the Star Dome Barrier is on the brink of shattering.

Annihilation light beams lock onto him, with only 37 breaths remaining in the countdown for the inheritance seal to coalesce.

At the moment of near-death, he actually takes the initiative to detonate the tribulation imprint.

Xingtian, I'll borrow your fury!

The Guixu Tribulation Fire dims, the star seed falls silent, yet a faint glimmer of Su Wanzhao lights up deep within his Dantian.

The violet flames reignite, the Star Dome Barrier surges, and a throne phantom descends with a boom—

Zhang Shouzhuo, so you are...

At the edge of the Annihilation Origin void, there is dead silence, yet it is filled with the clamor of destruction.

The core area of the Hall of Fate Wheel, this sanctuary that once symbolized the cycle of supreme power, has now completely turned into a dead zone.

The massive, breathtaking light wheel structure, like an enraged giant beast, spins crazily amidst the boiling waves of the Chaos Origin sea.

Every time the teeth-grinding sound of twisting metal rang out, it was accompanied by countless beams of pure annihilation light, shooting out irregularly from the rotating cracks and the boiling Chaos black tide, tearing through space, piercing the Void Realm, and carrying an absolute will to obliterate all existence.

Wherever the light beams passed, even the Chaos Origin was evaporated, leaving behind deeper, more despair-inducing voids.

The density of destruction was beyond words.

Chen Feng hung in the center of this storm of destruction.

Tiny, fragile, like a speck of dust in a raging sea.

The Void Realm beneath his feet was an Annihilation Origin void, three thousand meters in diameter, bottomless, and crazily devouring everything around it.

At the edge of the void, remnants of the shattered Xingtian Axe phantom in the form of tragic light particles were being ruthlessly devoured by that massive gravitational force.

The guixu fate wheel spun crazily deep within his Dantian and Qi Sea, its solidity barely maintained at sixty percent; the tribulation fire that should have burned through the heavens was now like a candle in the wind, dim and lackluster, and every rotation of the fate wheel appeared sluggish and painful.

The cold corrosive sensation brought by the tribulation imprint was like gangrene attached to the bone, having penetrated deep into his marrow and Divine Soul; the degree of revival climbed silently with every heartbeat toward that fatal 30% critical point—the figure of 26.3% was coldly branded into his perception, bringing a chilling and heavy sensation like a maggot on the bone.

Even more fatal was the Star Dome Barrier.

That barrier, condensed from the will of the stars and which had once protected him through countless dangers, was now as thin as a cicada's wing, with only the last 0.3% of its faint light flickering uncertainly around him; every time an annihilation light beam grazed it, it would flash violently, emitting a groan of being overwhelmed.

The System's cold warning echoed sharply deep within his consciousness: [Star Dome Barrier Critical Point: Strength < 0.1% will completely collapse!]

In his Sea of Consciousness, the raging will of Xingtian, originating from an ancient ancestor, was stirring up a monstrous, bloody storm.

Ant! My axe phantom... actually destroyed by your hands!

Xingtian's roar, carrying the excruciating pain of tearing the Soul, struck directly at Chen Feng's Divine Soul Origin, 'A mere Guixu prototype dares to defy the might of the Path of Slaughter? Hand over this body! I will grant you... eternal annihilation!'

The terrifying mental shock was like billions of red-hot steel needles, viciously piercing into Chen Feng's consciousness.

He groaned, his body trembling violently; what seeped from his seven orifices was no longer blood, but fragments of Soul light carrying an eerie, ashen Aura.

The progress of the tribulation imprint's revival, under this furious impact, suddenly jumped up a notch—27.1%!

Ughhh—!

The intense pain caused his vision to blacken, and he was almost falling from this Void Realm into the eternal annihilation void below.

Just in this excruciating pain of his Divine Soul being torn apart, a faint yet incredibly resilient warmth, like the first spark ignited on a frozen wasteland, stubbornly lit up at his heart.

The feeling was so familiar that his Soul trembled—it was Su Wanzhao!

It was the final protection of her silent star seed will!

Faint, yet incredibly clear, like the only straw a drowning person could grasp.

[Warning: xingtians will Possession process accelerating! Annihilation light beam path prediction, evasion rate < 10%! inheritance seal coalescence countdown: 37 breaths!]

The System's cold prompt sounded again, every word striking like a funeral knell of death.

37 breaths!

Chen Feng suddenly looked up, his gaze piercing through the raging annihilation light beams and the boiling Chaos black tide, locking firmly onto the core depth of the rotating light wheel storm.

There, a point of light so pure it was indescribable was rapidly coalescing and expanding!

It seemed to be the crystallization of all the Laws of the entire Hall of Fate Wheel, emitting an unparalleled attraction; even the surrounding violent annihilation light beams seemed to have their trajectories slightly distorted by its presence.

inheritance seal! Coalescence: 92%!

It was like a greedy vortex, crazily drawing in the last remaining Origin of this land of destruction, about to fully take form!

The hope of life and the desperate situation of death converged after 37 breaths.

Almost simultaneously, a deadly warning sign hit him like a bucket of ice water!

An unprecedented, pure white annihilation light beam, over ten zhang in diameter, like a divine spear of punishment piercing through the Universe, suddenly tore through the chaotic trajectory, ignoring the distance of space, carrying a cold will to lock onto the Soul, and shot out ferociously from a huge crack in the rotating light wheel, striking straight toward the Void Realm where Chen Feng was located!

Along its path, all Chaos Origin was instantly evaporated, leaving behind a pitch-black vacuum scar.

The System's cold prediction figure [Evasion rate < 10%] flashed frantically, finally settling into an eye-piercing blood red—[0%]!

Absolute death lock!

Nowhere to hide!

Before the light beam arrived, that pure Aura of destruction had already caused Chen Feng's crumbling Star Dome Barrier to emit a harsh cracking sound, the remaining 0.3% of its faint light rapidly dimming.

His entire body's bones creaked under an invisible, immense pressure, his skin cracked inch by inch, and the seeping blood was instantly evaporated into nothingness.

Xingtian's wild laughter, filled with the pleasure of destruction, exploded in his Sea of Consciousness: 'Hahahaha! Heaven wants to end you! Ant, return to annihilation! This body will eventually be the sacrifice for my Path of Slaughter to return!'

The shadow of death had never been so real; its cold touch gripped his throat, and even his thoughts seemed about to be frozen.

The Star Dome Barrier flickered uncertainly, like a candle in the wind, emitting a final, overwhelmed groan, on the verge of complete collapse.

Just at the moment before this absolute dead end arrived, all the fear, struggle, and despair in Chen Feng's eyes, like ice thrown into a furnace, instantly evaporated, replaced by a nearly insane, mutually destructive determination!

Xingtian!

Chen Feng's Divine Soul let out a heaven-shaking roar deep within his Sea of Consciousness, a voice that drowned out the roar of the annihilation light beam tearing through the Void Realm, and drowned out the arrogance of Xingtian's wild laughter, 'You want Possession? You want to use this power of annihilation to destroy me? Good! Very good!'

His will, like the most violent thunder, no longer suppressed the tribulation imprint that had penetrated deep into his marrow; instead, using the last, faint Origin power of his guixu fate wheel prototype, he slammed it viciously against the ashen imprint that was coiled like a living creature deep within his Divine Soul!

I'll borrow your fury!!

Boom—!!!

As if it were the first explosion at the birth of the Universe!

Chen Feng's body arched violently, as if struck by an invisible, giant hammer.

The starlight mark belonging to Su Wanzhao on his heart was instantly covered and suppressed by an extremely violent, ashen, malevolent Aura!

The tribulation imprint that had penetrated his marrow was, with his own fate wheel as the catalyst, ferociously detonated!

Pfft! A large mouthful of Soul blood with an eerie, ashen color sprayed out, and before it could fall into the Void Realm, it was evaporated by the terrifying radiation of the annihilation light beam.

Excruciating pain! An indescribable pain swept through every cell of his body, his Soul feeling as if it were being cut and torn by billions of blunt knives simultaneously.

The eruption of the tribulation imprint was like opening the floodgates of Hell, an endless malevolent Aura of the Path of Slaughter, the will of destruction, and Xingtian's furious, enraged Origin, like a dam-bursting flood of world-ending proportions, instantly overwhelmed Chen Feng's already fragile Divine Soul dam!

Xingtian's roar, furious to the point of distortion, exploded in his Sea of Consciousness: 'You dare?! Ant! You are courting death!!'

The revival degree of the imprint, like an out-of-control rocket, soared crazily—28.5%! 29.1%! Instantly approaching that fatal 30% critical point of the lu dao true body projection!

However, this torrent of the Path of Slaughter, which had been forcibly detonated and was sufficient to instantly destroy his Divine Soul, had not completely spiraled out of control.

In Chen Feng's eyes, filled with pain and baleful energy, a nearly paranoid, frenzied will was burning.

Enduring the excruciating pain of his Soul disintegrating, he recklessly channeled this destructive power toward the dim guixu fate wheel deep within his Dantian!

"Give me... burn!!!"

The embryonic fate wheel let out an unbearable wail, its surface covered in dense cracks.

Under the frenzied impact of this destructive torrent, the dim Guixu Tribulation Fire did not extinguish; instead, it was as if boiling oil had been poured onto it!

Sss—!

A faint hint of violet suddenly lit up at the core of the fate wheel!

It was not the crimson of pure tribulation fire, but a violet that carried a deep, ancient, and all-encompassing quality!

It was as if a star core, silent for hundreds of millions of years, had been forcibly awakened by a sliver of instinct under the pressure of world-ending destruction!

The moment this wisp of violet appeared, an indescribable palpitation erupted from the deepest part of Chen Feng's Dantian!

There, the silent star seed—the final repository of Su Wanzhao's will—seemed to be touched by this forcibly ignited violet tribulation fire and stimulated by the torrent of the Path of Slaughter, which shared the same Origin but carried an Aura of destruction... It had awakened!

It was not a gentle recovery, but an explosion in a desperate situation, forcibly ignited!

Hum—!

Deep in his Dantian, the silent star seed suddenly erupted with unprecedented, brilliant radiance!

Pure, vast, and carrying the great power of protection and Nirvana!

This newly born, resilient starlight will instantly merged with the wisp of violet tribulation fire that Chen Feng had forcibly ignited!

The star seed's will served as the kindling, the baleful energy of xingtians will and the Path of Slaughter as the fuel, and the guixu fate wheel as the furnace!

Boom!

At this moment, the silent Guixu Tribulation Fire underwent a complete transformation!

The dim crimson was instantly replaced by a noble and mysterious violet that seemed capable of smelting the stars of the heavens!

The violet flames surged; they were no longer weak flickers but had suddenly transformed into a raging pillar of violet fire, violently rushing skyward along Chen Feng's shattered Meridians and torn acupoints!

Wherever the violet flames passed, the power of the tribulation imprint, which had been deep in his bones, acted as if it had met its nemesis, emitting a hissing sound of dissolution!

In Xingtian's angry roar, for the first time, there was a trace of unbelievable fear: "No... impossible! What... what fire is this?!"

[Guixu Tribulation Fire Status: Dim | Rekindled (Form Transformation: Star Dome Eternal Burning Violet Flame)!]

The violet flames surged, instantly coursing through Chen Feng's entire body.

That layer of the Star Dome Barrier, which was on the verge of shattering with only 0.1% of its faint light remaining, was like withered wood encountering sweet rain after a long drought, greedily devouring this miraculous violet flame that had fused the Origins of Guixu, the star seed, and the Path of Slaughter!

Hum—!

The Star Dome Barrier on the verge of shattering erupted with an unprecedented, clear ringing sound!

The dim starlight barrier was instantly rendered with a layer of deep and noble violet halo!

The huge cracks on the barrier caused by the annihilation beam began to mend and reinforce at a speed visible to the naked eye as the violet flames flowed over them!

Under the infusion of the violet flames, the thickness and strength of the barrier surged crazily like it was being inflated!

[Star Dome Barrier Strength: 0.1%...0.5%...1.5%...5.0%...10%! Continuing to climb!]

Boom!!!

That pure white annihilation beam, which had locked onto Chen Feng and was sufficient to erase everything, finally slammed violently into this newly born barrier flowing with violet star flames!

There was no destruction as overwhelming as anticipated.

Time seemed to freeze at this moment.

The destructive light stream, capable of evaporating the Chaos Origin, collided violently with the barrier burning with violet star flames!

The point of contact erupted with light hundreds of millions of times more dazzling than the birth of a star!

The destructive energy crazily eroded and annihilated the violet flames of the barrier, but the newly born violet flame barrier erupted with astonishing resilience; like divine iron in a furnace, it became even more solid and brilliant under the forging of destruction!

Under the extreme pressure of the collision, the barrier strength value jumped crazily—15%! 20%! 25%!

Stalemate!

Under the bombardment of the annihilation beam, the violet flame barrier fluctuated and deformed violently, even caving inward to form a huge arc, with tiny fragments of violet star flames constantly being evaporated and stripped away at the edges, but he gritted his teeth and withstood this world-ending strike!

Chen Feng's body was sent flying backward by the immense impact force, crashing heavily into a large fragment of the light wheel that was rushing past behind him, blood spraying wildly from his mouth, but that layer of violet flame barrier still stubbornly protected him!

"Roar—!! Ant! You stole my power! You deserve death!"

Xingtian's will went completely berserk.

The moment Chen Feng resisted the annihilation beam, the imprint's recovery rate finally broke through that fatal critical point—30.1%!

lu dao true body projection, triggered!

The Void Realm above Chen Feng's head suddenly collapsed!

An indescribably massive giant shadow, condensed from pure destruction will and dark red Slaughter Dao blood light, descended with an Aura that made the entire boiling sea of Chaos Origin tremble!

It was a blurry, towering giant phantom, and in its hand, it seemed to hold the outline of a giant axe condensed from the wails of countless resentful Souls!

Just a wisp of the Aura emitted by the projection caused several surrounding annihilation beams to silently deflect and dissipate!

The giant hand of the lu dao true body projection, carrying the Aura of erasing all Laws, ignored space and grabbed violently toward Chen Feng, who was struggling to resist the annihilation beam with his Star Dome Barrier's violet light flickering uncertainly!

This grab was even more terrifying than the annihilation beam, carrying the will to lock onto Karma and erase existence!

Life and death, in just a split second!

Just then—

Hum!

A soft ringing, as if from the ancient past, sounded without warning behind Chen Feng.

Space rippled like water.

A phantom, barely pieced together from countless broken fragments flowing with starlight, descended with a boom!

It was a... broken throne phantom!

The style of the throne phantom was ancient and majestic, its base forged from the bones of countless stars, its armrests entwined with broken chains of time, and its backrest engraved with blurry totems that seemed to represent the life, death, and Reincarnation of the heavens and worlds.

Its entire body exuded a sense of vicissitudes and loneliness, as if it had endured ten thousand tribulations and looked down upon the changing of eras.

At this moment, although this throne phantom was covered in cracks and seemed ready to collapse completely at any time, its similarity reached a staggering 70%!

A weak yet supreme will of protection permeated from it, just happening to block the giant hand of the lu dao true body projection that was reaching for Chen Feng!

"Hmm?!" On the blurry face of the xingtians will projection, a trace of extreme astonishment and suspicion seemed to flash, "This Aura... is it you?! Zhang Shouzhuo?!"

Zhang Shouzhuo?!

Chen Feng's mind shook violently!

The Aura of this broken throne phantom... actually had an indescribable resemblance to Zhang Shouzhuo's seemingly ordinary figure!

The faint starlight flowing on the broken throne phantom faintly echoed the protective will of Su Wanzhao's starlight mark on his chest!

The lonely and vicissitudinous will of royal power even produced a subtle resonance with the Star Dome Eternal Burning Violet Flame currently burning within him!

This sudden turn of events caused the lu dao true body projection of xingtians will to pause for a billionth of a split second.

It was that billionth of a split second!

Violet flames shot out from Chen Feng's eyes!

All the pain, all the madness, and all the will converged to the peak at this moment!

37 breaths had passed!

"inheritance seal! Guixu—Induce!"

He ignored the giant lu dao hand grabbing down from above, ignored the throne phantom in front that was about to exhaust its power and dissipate, and even more so ignored the xingtians will projection that was roaring in fury because it was blocked by the throne phantom.

The guixu fate wheel, burning with violet star flames, emitted a roar beyond its limits within his Dantian!

He transformed into a violet meteor tearing through the storm of destruction, carrying an unstoppable, indomitable Aura of determination as he charged fiercely toward the core of the light wheel storm, toward the inheritance seal that had just finished condensing and was emitting an Aura that made the Laws of the heavens bow!

His burning hand, with five fingers spread and carrying violet flames that tore through the Void Realm, finally touched the light seal that carried the ultimate mystery of the Hall of Fate Wheel!

From his fingertips came a strange sensation, a mixture of cold and burning heat, as if he had grasped the weight of the entire Universe.

Just as the inheritance seal was in his hand,
