The sword that cuts through the Dao, defying the heavens!
The sword light that embodied all of Fu Shaoping's lifelong learning, all his knowledge, and all his indomitable will clashed fiercely with the golden giant hand that represented the order of the Heavenly Court and the majesty of the Heavenly Dao above the Qingxuan Sect!
There was no earth-shattering explosion as expected, nor any frenzied clash of energy torrents.
The center of the collision seemed to have become a forbidden zone of rules, a graveyard of color. Only an ever-spreading, absolute "nothingness" remained, devouring all light and sound! Space shattered and reformed there, time became disordered and stagnant, and even the most fundamental laws of matter and energy lost their meaning!
The invincible, all-encompassing power of the golden giant palm encountered its first "obstacle" when it came into contact with the sword light containing a trace of the origin of the void! The hazy sword light, like the most stubborn reef and the most slippery fish, did not directly confront it, but rather "decomposed," "assimilated," and "eroded" the power of the heavenly way in a more fundamental way!
The Void is the universe's "recycling station," the terminator of old rules! Even a tiny trace of it transcends many conventional laws!
"How is this possible?!" Above the sky, the inspector shrouded in a radiant glow uttered a clear voice for the first time, filled with shock and anger! He could not believe that a Golden Core cultivator from the lower realm could actually block his attack, which contained the laws of heaven, with that strange "forbidden power"!
Although the sword light was visibly dimming and shrinking under the crushing force of the giant palm, as if it would be completely annihilated at any moment, it did indeed block it! Even if only for a split second!
This moment felt like an eternity to the Qingxuan Sect members below!
They saw Fu Shaoping's resolute back, and the awe-inspiring sharpness of his sword that dared to defy the heavens! An indescribable shock and passion dispelled the fear in their hearts!
"Shaoping!" Shen Qingshan's eyes were bloodshot, and his sword energy surged uncontrollably around him, showing signs of breaking through the suppression of heavenly might!
"Elder Fu!" Countless disciples clenched their fists, their eyes filled with fervor and worry!
At the eye of the storm, Fu Shaoping was enduring unimaginable pain and pressure. With each passing moment his sword light dimmed, a crack appeared in his golden core, and his soul felt as if it were being torn apart! Yet, he gritted his teeth, and the flame in his eyes never extinguished!
"Not enough... My Dao... is not yet truly defying the heavens..." He realized that although this sword strike was astonishing, it could not truly contend with the Heavenly Court, which represented the pinnacle of order. He was only able to block it for a moment because of the special nature of the power of the Void and his own Dao foundation that transcended common sense.
Just as his sword light was about to completely dissipate, and the golden giant hand was about to obliterate him and Sunset Peak together—
Mutations reborn!
"Om-!"
Within his dantian, the star core he obtained from the Star Pavilion Master, and deep within his sea of consciousness, the inherited mark that carried the Star Pavilion Master's obsession with resisting the Void and seeking transcendence, seemed to be stirred by this extreme "defying the heavens" behavior and the intense collision between "Void" and "Heavenly Dao," and once again burst forth with unprecedented brilliance!
This time, it was no longer a gentle resonance, but a kind of... like a will that had been dormant for eternity being forcibly awakened—anger and resentment!
Inside the star core, that miniature star field expanded and evolved wildly, as if it were about to create a new world! Within the inheritance mark, the Star Evolution Pavilion Master's obsession with "As long as the stars are not destroyed, my path will endure forever" transformed into a tangible roar!
A star sword intent, far more ancient, vaster, and more domineering than Fu Shaoping himself, seemed to have traversed countless ages and, through his body and his sword, erupted with a thunderous roar!
This sword intent is no longer simply the power of stars, but contains the Star Pavilion Master's lifelong struggle against fate and his pursuit of transcendence—the Way of Reversing the Stars and Destroying Heaven!
"Xingyan...Senior?!" Fu Shaoping was shocked!
This sudden sword intent, far beyond his comprehension, did not seize his body, but rather, in a mysterious way, temporarily merged with his Samsara Sword Dao and the power of Return to Nothingness, forming an even more terrifying and lawless composite sword aura!
The gray and desolate ruins form the foundation, the dazzling starry river is the sharp edge, the cycle of birth and death is the meaning, and defying the heavens and conquering the Dao is the soul!
"laugh--!"
The combined sword energy increased several times in power, like a red-hot iron cutting into butter, tearing a huge gap in the golden giant palm!
"What?!" The inspector's voice of shock and anger reached its peak!
The sword energy continued its momentum, rushing out through the gap and piercing straight into the blurry figure of rosy light in the sky!
"presumptuous!"
The inspector was enraged, and his body erupted with radiant light, transforming into countless chains of divine order that intertwined into a net in an attempt to stop him.
However, the composite sword aura, fused with the Starry Pavilion Master's heaven-defying sword intent, was incomparably domineering, actually severing and shattering those divine chains of order! In the end, to the inspector's incredulous gaze, the sword aura slammed into his protective glow!
"Oh!"
A dull, loud bang, as if two worlds had collided!
The magnificent radiance trembled violently, flickering unpredictably, and the blurry figure swayed slightly! Although it wasn't truly injured at its core, its invincible image had been cracked by this sword strike!
He was actually forced back half a step by a Golden Core cultivator from the lower realm?! (Although he mainly relied on the power left behind by the Star Evolution Pavilion Master)
What a shame!
"Insects... how dare you harm my Dharma Form?!" The inspector's voice was filled with icy killing intent, his indifferent emotions finally shattered. "This realm shall be punished!"
He was no longer targeting Fu Shaoping alone, but rather the entire Qingxuan Sect! An even more powerful heavenly might began to gather, clearly indicating that he was about to unleash an even more terrifying method!
However, just as his murderous intent reached its peak and he was about to unleash divine punishment—
"Humph!"
A cold snort seemed to come from the deepest part of the netherworld, and it seemed to resound in every corner of the myriad realms!
The hum wasn't loud, but it instantly overwhelmed the divine might gathered by the inspector, and even caused the pale golden auspicious clouds to dissipate for a moment!
Immediately afterwards, a terrifying will, no less powerful than that of the Inspector, and even colder and more mysterious, seemingly capable of freezing the cycle of reincarnation, crossed over from another realm, standing in opposition to the Heavenly Court's oppressive aura!
"The Heavenly Court's reach has gone too far." A hoarse, ancient voice, filled with endless demonic intent, resounded. "This child possesses the secrets of the Void Return and is a person personally selected by my Netherworld Sect Master. How dare you take him away?"
The void split open, revealing a colossal portal constructed from countless skulls. Beyond the portal lay endless ghostly energy! The Nascent Soul stage expert from the Netherworld Cult, who had previously appeared in the Eye of Return to Nothingness, stood before the portal. Behind him, shadowy figures loomed, suggesting an even more terrifying existence! The Netherworld Cult had intervened at this moment! And to protect Fu Shaoping?! (Or perhaps, for the secrets of Return to Nothingness within him?)
The situation instantly became incredibly complicated!
The Heavenly Inspector paused, his icy gaze sweeping over the Netherworld Gate: "The Netherworld Cult... also dares to defy the Heavenly Laws?"
"Heavenly Laws?" The old monster of the Netherworld sneered. "With the changing of eras and the rise of the Void, how much of the old Heavenly Laws can they still govern? This boy, my Netherworld Sect wants him!"
Two forces far exceeding the level of this realm have actually formed a standoff above the Qingxuan Sect because of Fu Shaoping!
The Qingxuan Sect members below were completely dumbfounded, their minds reeling, almost unable to think straight. Fu Shaoping… what exactly did he do? How could he simultaneously attract the attention and scramble for power between the Heavenly Court and the Netherworld Sect?!
At the center of the vortex, Fu Shaoping, after unleashing that heaven-defying sword strike and using the force to repel the inspector, was at his last gasp. His aura was extremely weak, and he was only able to stay upright through sheer willpower. He looked at the two opposing forces in the air, a cold smile curving his lips.
The snipe and the clam fight...
Without the slightest hesitation, he seized the precious moment when the two major forces were restraining each other, and used his last bit of strength to activate the star core in his dantian!
"Star Escape - Limitless!"
Starlight burst forth, enveloping his body and instantly tearing apart the fragile space that had not yet fully calmed down. Instead of heading in a specific direction, he directly vanished into the deeper void turbulence, disappearing without a trace!
he's gone!
After taking a direct hit from the Heavenly Court, triggering the Star Destiny, forcing back the Inspector, and drawing the Netherworld Sect to appear, he decisively... fled!
"Trying to leave?!" The inspector and the Netherworld Old Monster noticed almost simultaneously and shouted angrily. Their divine senses frantically swept across the void, but they couldn't lock onto the aura that had merged into the turbulent flow!
"Chase!"
The two powerful figures disregarded their standoff and each used their abilities to follow a faint trace, breaking through the void and giving chase!
Above the Qingxuan Sect, the suffocating heavenly might and demonic pressure slowly dissipated, leaving only a devastated sky and countless cultivators who were still in shock and their hearts were surging.
At the summit of Sunset Peak, Shen Qingshan gazed in the direction where Fu Shaoping had disappeared. His clenched fist slowly loosened, a complex emotion flashing in his eyes, which ultimately culminated in a soft whisper:
"Live..."
The entire cultivation world was in an uproar because of the earth-shattering drama of "defying the heavens," "resisting arrest," "luring demons," and "escaping" that took place above the Qingxuan Sect today!
The name "Sunset Sword Master" Fu Shaoping is no longer just that of a genius or a powerful figure, but has become a legend! A defiant one who dared to challenge the Heavenly Court, causing two supreme powers to fight over him, and successfully escaped from the gap between them!
His disappearance did not calm the storm; instead, it added an even more mysterious and thrilling layer to the curtain of the Era of Return to Nothingness!
Everyone knows that when Fu Shaoping reappears, he will bring an even greater shock to the world!
The void is not absolute stillness and nothingness. It is a desert of rules, and also a turbulent field of energy. Shattered fragments of space fly everywhere like sharp blades, chaotic ripples of time reverse cause and effect, and there are various unknown dimensional folds and lurking void creatures.
Fu Shaoping forcefully activated the Star Escape Technique, crashing into this forbidden zone of life with his heavily injured body, almost guaranteeing his survival. The starlight shield was instantly riddled with cracks upon entering the void, and the raging void energy, like billions of steel needles, frantically eroded his physical body and soul.
Excruciating pain! A pain far more terrifying than any torture swept through his entire body! He felt every inch of his flesh, every meridian, and even the core of his soul being torn apart and disintegrated by this chaotic power of rules!
Consciousness was rapidly fading, the Chaos Reincarnation Golden Core was dim and covered with spiderweb-like cracks, as if it would completely collapse at any moment.
"I can't... die here..."
A survival instinct, born of the very nature of life, mixed with his unwillingness and obsession with the Great Dao, sustained his last shred of clarity. He frantically circulated the incomplete methods of survival in the void from the Northern Star inheritance, while simultaneously activating the star core in his dantian, emitting a faint starlight, attempting to stabilize himself in this desperate situation and find a glimmer of hope.
However, the power of the void turbulence far exceeded expectations. In just a few breaths, the starlight shield shattered! The raging energy instantly engulfed him!
Just when he thought he was about to be completely annihilated—
The dormant star core in his dantian, and the inheritance mark of the Star Evolution Pavilion Master in his sea of consciousness, lit up once more! This time, it wasn't an explosion of power, but rather the release of a peculiar fluctuation that seemed to resonate with the void!
At the same time, the nascent power of the Void within his body seemed to be stirred by this extreme chaos and destruction, spontaneously circulating. It was no longer resisting, but rather... like a sponge absorbing water, slowly and laboriously... devouring and assimilating the surrounding void energy!
The Void is the ultimate "nothingness," the final destination of all things. This chaotic void energy, to some extent, also belongs to "disorder" and "chaos," yet it is regarded by the power of the Void as nourishment that can be "recycled"!
Although the process was extremely slow and the pain it brought was even greater, this extremely weak absorption was like grasping at a straw in a storm, allowing Fu Shaoping's collapsing consciousness to barely gather a trace!
He immediately seized this only chance of survival! Instead of resisting, he actively guided the wisp of the power of the void, using his own collapsing body as a furnace to frantically devour and refine the surrounding void turbulence!
This was an incredibly dangerous and painful process. His body was constantly collapsing and rebuilding, his meridians ruptured and then reconnected, his bones shattered and then coalesced. Under the dual impact of the power of the Void Return and the energy of the void, the Chaos Reincarnation Golden Core developed more and more cracks, yet it stubbornly refused to shatter completely under the support of the power of the star core, instead undergoing a different kind of "tempering"!
Time has lost its meaning here.
I don’t know how long it took, maybe a moment, maybe ten thousand years.
Fu Shaoping had long since lost all sensation in his body, his entire mind immersed in guiding the power of the Void and maintaining his own shattered Dao. His consciousness seemed to float in endless darkness and chaos, with only that undying will to survive and Dao heart flickering like a candle in the wind, yet not extinguished.
Gradually, a strange change began to occur.
After absorbing a massive amount of void energy, the wisp of Returning to Nothingness power seemed to have grown slightly stronger, its color becoming deeper and more restrained. His shattered body, after countless cycles of destruction and reconstruction, actually began to spontaneously absorb the void energy that had been initially "filtered" by the Returning to Nothingness power. His bones were tinged with a faint gray sheen, and his meridians became more resilient and wider, as if he had adapted to the environment of this void. (End of Chapter)
