219: Eternal Power

The Spirit of the Void Sea, that massive and hazy terrifying existence seemingly condensed from the negative energy and shattered Laws of the entire Eternal Ruins, let out a silent roar that shook the Divine Soul.

It was the Incarnation of the will of this ultimate Forbidden Ground, the final and most powerful guardian of the Eternal Path!

The pressure it emitted even surpassed the combined might of the previous Four God Lords, carrying an absolute will that was cold, emotionless, and aimed at eradicating all who attempted to touch the Eternal Taboo!

It had no specific form, sometimes transforming into monstrous waves, sometimes becoming an all-consuming black hole, and sometimes condensing into billions of ferocious faces of resentment, finally manifesting as a gigantic palm woven from countless Laws of Destruction that covered the entire view and slowly pressed down upon Lin Jingyu!

This palm seemed to be the anger and rejection of the entire Eternal Ruins! It was capable of easily crushing High-Tier God Lords!

However, facing this ultimate trial, Lin Jingyu's eyes were as calm as water.

The power of the Eternal Realm surged within him, and the Great Dao of Strength allowed his understanding of "power" to reach an unprecedented height.

He slowly raised his right hand and clenched his five fingers.

There was no brilliant Divine Light, no grand momentum, and not even any energy fluctuation.

He simply and plainly threw a punch at the overwhelming giant palm of destruction.

"Break."

A single, understated word.

The next moment, a scene that caused the entire Eternal Ruins to tremble occurred!

The giant palm of destruction, capable of crushing God Lords, instantly began to collapse inch by inch from the point of contact, as if it had encountered its nemesis, a natural predator, the moment it touched Lin Jingyu's Fist Intent Concept.

The Laws of Destruction forming the giant palm let out a groan of unbearable stress, snapping and dissipating one after another!

The speed of the collapse was faster than imaginable!

It was as if that terrifying attack, capable of destroying Star Domains, was merely a sand painting soaked in water!

Where the Fist Intent pointed, all Laws collapsed! This was the absolute crushing power of the extreme of Strength!

The Spirit of the Void Sea let out a sharp shriek, its massive body violently twisting as it attempted to reorganize its attack and mobilize the power of the entire Void Sea!

"It's useless."

Lin Jingyu took one step, seeming to traverse time and space, and appeared directly at the core of the Spirit of the Void Sea's hazy main body.

"Your existence is itself a manifestation of 'Strength.' And I am 'Strength' itself."

He threw another punch.

This punch was still simple and unadorned.

But when it landed on the main body of the Spirit of the Void Sea, it produced an incredible effect!

The Spirit of the Void Sea's massive body, composed of endless negative energy and shattered Laws, did not explode. Instead, like snow thrown into a scorching sun, it began to rapidly melt, purify, and return to its Origin!

Its will, filled with destruction and resentment, was forcibly cleansed and purified before the absolute Great Dao of Strength, transforming into the purest, unaligned Origin energy!

[Ding! Absorbed the Origin Energy of the Spirit of the Void Sea! Gained origin points +100 trillion!]

[Detected that the host has reached the Eternal Realm. The origin points System has achieved Perfection and is automatically converted into ultimate energy replenishment!]

A tsunami of Eternal-level energy surged into Lin Jingyu's body, but he did not use it to raise his Realm—having already reached the peak, no increase was needed—instead, he used it all to consolidate and stabilize the newly attained Eternal Dao Fruit, making it completely perfect and flawless!

The Spirit of the Void Sea rapidly shrank and became pure, finally transforming into a faint yet incredibly bright cluster of pure light. At its core, a damaged rune, faintly visible and containing the supreme Dao Rhyme, slowly rotated.

Eternal Core Fragment!

This was the ultimate object that supported the entire Eternal Ruins and was desired by all God Lords!

Lin Jingyu reached out and grasped the light cluster.

The moment he touched the Eternal Core Fragment!

Boom!!!

Inside his body, it was as if the Origin point of the Universe's Big Bang had been ignited!

The Great Dao of Strength, the ultimate form of the Chaos Divine Demon Body, the vast and endless Eternal-level energy, his indomitable will to fight heaven and earth, and the massive energy feedback from the System after finally absorbing the Spirit of the Void Sea... everything perfectly and completely underwent Fusion at this moment!

There was no longer any distinction between Physical Body, Divine Soul, Divine Kingdom, or Will!

He was "Strength"! Strength was him!

A grand Realm that truly surpassed everything, transcended all Daos, was Eternally Free, and Indestructible, completely stabilized and achieved Perfection within him!

Buzz—

An invisible yet mighty aura, seemingly capable of freezing all time and space throughout the ages and forcing all Heavens and Myriad Worlds to submit, spread out from him.

The Eternal Ruins, originally chaotic, violent, and filled with destructive aura, instantly became peaceful after this aura swept over it.

The shattered stars ceased their collision, the tearing Spatial Rifts slowly healed, and the turbulent Law currents became docile and orderly... as if the entire Void Sea was worshipping its "King"!

On the System panel, all the data blurred, finally condensing into a line of simple golden characters:

[Eternal Realm: Perfection! Incarnation of the Great Dao of Strength!]

[System Ultimate Mission complete, highest authority unlocked. Functions have perfectly merged into the host's Eternal Dao Fruit. Farewell, host. May you be Eternally Free.]

The System prompt carried a trace of emotion never heard before, then quietly vanished, completely merging with Lin Jingyu. It had completed its mission.

Lin Jingyu stood firm in the center of the now peaceful and serene Void Sea, slowly opening his eyes.

His eyes were as deep as a Star Sea yet as pure as an infant's, reflecting the scenes of the Universe's creation and destruction and the Reincarnation of the Myriad Daos.

With every move, no power leaked out. He seemed like an ordinary giant, yet he gave the illusion that he was the center of the Universe and the source of all things.

Eternal God of Strength! Achieved!

With a slight shift of his thoughts, his gaze seemed to penetrate endless time and space, seeing the Nine Heavens Divine Domain.

He saw the relieved smiles on the faces of the Time-Space God Lord and the others.

He saw Qing Li standing on the mountaintop, gazing into the Void Realm, her eyes filled with blessing and relief.

He also saw the powers that once regarded him with hostility and fear, now completely dormant, daring not harbor the slightest stray thought.

Beneath the Eternal, all are ants.

He succeeded. Using the purest strength, he shattered all obstacles and ascended to the ultimate peak... Many years later.

The Nine Heavens Divine Domain had long since returned to peace, and due to the stabilization of the Eternal Ruins, the Laws became even clearer, ushering in a new Golden Age of Cultivation.

Legends about "Strength Venerable" Lin Jingyu spread far and wide, with numerous versions, but he himself had long vanished from the sight of the world.

Some say he transcended and departed for a higher-dimensional world.

Some say he created thousands of Incarnations and travels the mortal world.

Others say he remains in the deepest part of the Eternal Ruins, silently guarding the balance of this Universe.

Only a very few top-tier existences occasionally feel a gentle yet irresistible will sweep across the Starry Sky, like a kind father watching over his child's growth.

That was a state of eternal freedom and tranquility.
