146: Core of the ruins

"Despicable thieves... dare to steal my lord's sacred object... destroy my projection..."

"With your flesh and Soul... I shall sacrifice you to my true body... descend!"

A cold and vast will, like a chilling wind from the Nine Nether, swept through the entire bone space!

The thousand-zhang bone tower groaned under the immense pressure, and countless bones on its walls accelerated their cracking and peeling!

The Death Qi swirling at the top of the tower was furiously devoured, converging towards the deepest part of the tower's base!

Rumble—!!!

The ground of the bone space suddenly collapsed downwards!

A massive, bottomless black hole appeared beneath the altar!

Within the black hole, it wasn't pure darkness, but rather viscous, ink-like black mist churning, exuding endless deathly silence and abyssal demonic nature!

A terrifying pressure, far exceeding the Dharma Aspect Realm and capable of solidifying space itself, descended with a roar, as if an ancient slumbering beast had opened its eyes!

Domain Realm Eighth Heaven! The true ancient Demon Saint's body was awakening!

Outside the tower, Qin Shanhe felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave!

That terrifying Domain pressure was like an invisible giant hand clutching his throat; his Dharma Aspect Eighth Heaven power seemed so minuscule before this pressure!

His face turned pale, and he plunged his xuanhuang greatsword into the ground to steady himself, his eyes filled with horror: "Domain... a true Domain! Brother Lin!!"

Inside the tower, Lin Jingyu bore the brunt of it!

Buzz!

That Domain pressure, like substantial heavy water, instantly solidified the hundred-zhang space around him!

The circulation of his Primordial Violet Qi became sluggish and difficult!

The bone ground beneath his feet silently turned to dust!

If not for his recent Breakthrough to Dharma Aspect Ninth Heaven and the protective embryonic form of the Primordial Creation Scripture, the previous him would likely have been instantly crushed into serious injury!

Moreover, this Demon Saint was several times more powerful than the three Domain Realm Eighth Heaven experts he had previously encountered.

"System! Immediately consume all evolution points! With the embryonic form of the Primordial Creation Scripture as the core, fuse all Cultivation Techniques and Divine Abilities! Objective—resist the Domain pressure! Deduce to the current Realm's limit!"

Lin Jingyu's will was like a Heaven-Opening divine blade, severing all fear!

He needed stronger power to contend with this terrifying existence that spanned a major Realm.

[Command confirmed! evolution points consumed: 400,000!]

[Core Cultivation Technique: "Primordial Creation Scripture" (embryonic form)!]

[Fused Cultivation Techniques: "Myriad Tribulations Indestructible Body" (Minor Achievement), "Primordial Chaos Divine Demon Diagram" (Minor Achievement)!]

[Fused Divine Abilities: "Eye of Annihilation," "Heaven and Earth Conformity," "Heart Fire Burns the Heavens," "Chaos Heaven-Opening Roar," "Heaven-Opening Fist Seal"!]

[Deducing... fusing and optimizing... deducing to the limit of Dharma Aspect Realm Ninth Heaven...]

[Fusion complete!]

Buzz—!!!

A new torrent of power, more harmonious, vaster, and more perfectly aligned with Lin Jingyu's Physical Body and will, instantly surged and formed within him!

His previous various Cultivation Techniques and Divine Abilities had not disappeared; instead, they were completely integrated, absorbed, and sublimated by the embryonic form of the Primordial Creation Scripture!

His Primordial Violet Qi became more condensed and profound, its circulation imbued with the resilience of Myriad Tribulations Indestructible Body and the mighty power of Chaos Heaven-Opening!

Behind him, the hundred-zhang Dharma Aspect's purple-gold divine body naturally manifested Chaos Divine Demon Diagram patterns. Its left eye burned with Chaos Divine Fire, its right eye held Primordial Stars, and its every breath stirred Chaos tides, every movement containing Heaven-Opening Fist Intent!

The power of Heart Fire Burns the Heavens merged into his Bloodline, becoming the Origin fire that resisted evil!

The essence of Chaos Heaven-Opening Roar circulated throughout his body, ready to unleash a roar that could shatter Divine Souls at any moment!

At this moment, his Physical Body, Dharma Aspect, will, and all his power truly merged into one!

Although his Realm was still Dharma Aspect Ninth Heaven, his foundation and Battle Intent had climbed to the absolute limit of the Dharma Aspect Realm!

"Roar!!!"

From the depths of the black hole, a more violent roar erupted!

A terrifying bone claw, covered in dark golden bone armor, entwined with solidified death chains, and impossibly massive, suddenly extended from the churning black mist!

Just the emergence of this one claw emitted Domain pressure that caused the entire bone space to crack under the unbearable strain!

The bone claw's target was directly Lin Jingyu!

Within the palm of the claw, a miniature death vortex, composed of countless wailing skeletons, spun furiously, emitting a terrifying suction force that devoured all vitality and annihilated all things!

Domain Power—Bone Sea Abyss!

"ant! Die!" The cold will locked onto Lin Jingyu.

"Good timing!"

Lin Jingyu's Battle Intent burned to its extreme! The fused and deduced power gave him unprecedented confidence!

Facing the grasping Domain bone claw, the hundred-zhang Dharma Aspect behind him let out a silent roar, perfectly synchronized with his main body's movements!

"Heaven-Opening!"

Lin Jingyu and his Dharma Aspect punched in unison!

Primordial Violet Qi condensed highly at his fist, no longer a simple Heaven-Opening Fist Seal, but rather a Fusion of Myriad Tribulations Indestructible Body's resilience, Chaos Divine Demon's mighty power, and the will to annihilate stars!

A purple-gold beam of light, condensed to the extreme, as if capable of tearing through Chaos Grandmist, fiercely slammed into the grasping Domain bone claw!

Fist and claw collided!

Boom—!!!!

This collision far surpassed any previous one!

There was no earth-shattering explosion! Only the terrifying shriek of space being forcibly torn apart and annihilated by extreme power!

The purple-gold beam of light fiercely crashed into the death vortex at the center of the bone claw!

The death vortex, imbued with the rules of Domain Eighth Heaven, spun furiously, grinding away, attempting to devour this fist light!

Sizzle sizzle sizzle—!!!

The ear-piercing sound of annihilation was like the shrieks of countless vengeful spirits!

The purple-gold beam of light violently vibrated and dissolved under the grinding of the death Domain, but the core of the Heaven-Opening and world-shattering Fist Intent was incredibly resilient, stubbornly resisting the Domain's devourment!

It even caused the death vortex to fluctuate violently, with subtle cracks appearing on its surface!

Stalemate! For just an instant!

Crack!

The purple-gold beam of light ultimately failed to Break through the absolute suppression of the Domain and shattered with a roar under the death vortex's frenzied grinding!

Puff!

Lin Jingyu was struck heavily, his body violently shaking, and he spat out a mouthful of pale golden blood!

His Dharma Aspect phantom violently fluctuated, dimming slightly!

That terrifying Domain suction force came through the shattered fist energy, furiously tearing at his Physical Body and Divine Soul, as if trying to drag him into the Bone Sea Abyss!

"What a powerful Domain!"

Lin Jingyu's heart was solemn; although the fused and deduced power was strong, it was still at an absolute disadvantage against Domain power that spanned a major Realm!

If not for the extremely high essence of the embryonic Primordial Creation Scripture and the integration of the Myriad Tribulations Indestructible Body's characteristics, this single blow would have severely injured him!

"Struggling... futile!"

The Demon Saint's cold will came from the black hole. The huge bone claw paused slightly, the cracks in the death vortex instantly repaired, and the suction force increased by another third!

Another equally terrifying bone claw slowly extended from the black mist!

The two claws closed, like grinding millstones, intending to completely crush and devour Lin Jingyu!

"Brother Lin! Catch this!" At this critical moment, Qin Shanhe's roar from outside the tower pierced through the Domain suppression!

A yellowish stream of light, encasing an ancient Xuanhuang Talisman Seal, carrying Qin Shanhe's all-out Dharma Aspect power, laboriously passed through the bone tower's entrance and shot towards Lin Jingyu!

"Xuanhuang Demon Suppressing Seal! It can briefly interfere with the Domain! Only for an instant!" Qin Shanhe roared, his face pale from exhaustion.

Lin Jingyu's eyes flashed with brilliant light!

Without hesitation, he grabbed the incoming Xuanhuang Talisman Seal! It felt heavy in his hand, containing a profound power that suppressed evil and stabilized space!

"Now!" Lin Jingyu frantically poured all his fused Primordial Creation power into the Talisman Seal!

Buzz—!!!

The Xuanhuang Talisman Seal erupted with dazzling earthy yellow divine light!

A giant 'Suppress' character phantom appeared, emitting a mountain-like sealing power, fiercely stamping towards the two closing Domain bone claws!

"Suppressing Demon?!"

The Demon Saint's will showed a trace of shock and anger for the first time! It seemed to have an instinctive aversion to this power!

The Xuanhuang divine light and the Domain Death Qi violently collided!

The closing dual claws paused for a moment!

The operation of the death vortex at the center of the bone claws also experienced an extremely brief stagnation!

Although it couldn't truly suppress the Domain, it successfully created a fleeting gap!

"Thanks, Brother Qin!" Lin Jingyu roared, seizing this one-in-ten-thousand-of-a-second opportunity!

He no longer clashed head-on! The fused and deduced "Primordial Creation Scripture" granted him unprecedented control over power!

Primordial Violet Qi exploded under his feet, and his figure transformed into a purple lightning bolt tearing through the solidified space, narrowly rushing out from the gap between the two closing claws!

His target was directly—the edge of the black hole!

"Trying to escape? Stay!" The Demon Saint roared in fury, one bone claw suddenly changing direction, entwined with death chains, tearing through space to grab Lin Jingyu's back!

"Scram!" Lin Jingyu didn't look back, punching out with a reverse strike!

It wasn't a head-on clash, but rather the condensed essence of the fused Chaos Heaven-Opening Roar at his fist!

Roar—!!!

A purple ray of sound wave, condensed to the extreme, erupted with a roar, fiercely striking the side of the grasping bone claw!

Bang!

The sound wave exploded! Although it couldn't shake the bone claw, the immense impact force caused the bone claw's trajectory to deviate slightly!

Using this recoil force, Lin Jingyu's speed increased further, like a meteor, fiercely crashing into the churning black mist barrier at the edge of the black hole!

"Break!"

He unleashed both fists, the fused Heaven-Opening Fist Seal and the Myriad Tribulations Indestructible Body's physical power exploding without reservation!

Rumble!!!

The viscous black mist barrier was forcibly blasted open, creating a large hole! Lin Jingyu's figure instantly disappeared into it!

"Roar—!!!" The Demon Saint's roar, filled with endless fury and killing intent, shook the entire bone tower violently, causing countless bones to clatter down!

The two terrifying bone claws furiously tore at the black mist barrier, attempting to give chase!

In the depths of the black hole, beyond the churning black mist, the scene suddenly opened up!

This was the true core of the relic!

A shattered continent suspended in the endless Void Realm!

At the center of the continent was not the expected Demon Saint's true body, but rather a bone throne constructed from countless gigantic, pale Demon King skeletons exuding an ancient, primordial Aura!

Upon the throne sat an unimaginably massive dark-gold Demon Saint Skeleton!

It maintained a giant ape form, with three pairs of broken bone wings on its back, a spiral single horn on its head, and two lava-like dark-gold Soul fires burning in its empty eye sockets!

However, at this moment, these Soul fires flickered violently, filled with rage!

Most of its body was covered by thick, black crystal-like abyssal demonic scabs, with only its head and part of its chest exposed.

These demonic scabs writhed like living creatures, exuding a terrifying abyssal demonic nature; they were the source of its power and also the shackles preventing it from immediately leaving the throne to pursue!

And below the throne, on the bone continent, lay dozens of gray chaos origin stone fragments of varying sizes, exuding Chaos Aura!

As well as... three equally massive Demon King skeletons, exuding fierce Aura, clearly serving as guardians!

Green Soul fires flickered in their eye sockets, emitting Domain First Heaven pressure. They had been awakened and were slowly standing up, locking onto the intruding Lin Jingyu!

"Thief... you cannot escape..."

The Demon Saint Skeleton's cold will was like a maggot in the bone, "Tear him apart! Retrieve the chaos origin stone...!"

Roar! Roar! Roar!

The three Domain First Heaven Demon King skeleton guardians let out earth-shattering roars, charging simultaneously at the newly intruded Lin Jingyu with terrifying Auras that tore through the Void Realm!

The true Demon Saint's body sat high on the throne, covered by abyssal demonic scabs, its Domain Eighth Heaven pressure enveloping the entire scene!

Three Domain First Heaven guardian skeletons fiercely attacked! Lin Jingyu was alone, trapped in a desperate situation!

However, facing this certain death situation, Lin Jingyu looked at the chaos origin stone fragments scattered below the throne, feeling the almost burning greed and resonance erupting from the fragmented claw of the sovereign and bone yama demon core in his embrace due to their proximity to the Demon Saint's body. A cold and fervent arc curved at the corner of his mouth.

"Domain First Heaven? Just right for honing my blade! As for you..."

His gaze was like lightning, locking onto the Demon Saint's body bound by demonic scabs on the throne, "After I dismantle your bone chair, I'll tear you apart!"
