Chapter 293 Cultivation World 82
Si Lingle did not force her way in. She used the Dao of the End to condense a barely perceptible "Thread of Annihilation," which penetrated the laws of the pool water. Like the most precise probe and harvesting knife, she accurately picked three of the best quality herbs and then quietly retreated without a sound.

In her mission to confirm the "Shadow Raven" stronghold, she didn't even approach the core storm zone of the Darkflame Vortex.

Only at a point in the spatial folds did they catch a trace of extremely subtle communication signal, which shared the same origin as the Eye of Judgment but was more complex.

With her vivid memory of that corrupting power and precise control over the Dao of Space, she deduced the hidden coordinates of the core stronghold. The accuracy of this intelligence sent chills down the spines of even the person behind it.

She occasionally takes on guard duties, but when faced with attacks from "Star-devouring Pirates," her methods are often more decisive and thorough than those of the Star-devouring Pirates.

The Void Devouring Vortex not only has an impenetrable defense, but it also plunders in reverse, devouring the space pirates' divine power and the rare minerals they carry, turning them into the purest chaotic power to replenish itself.

Their ruthless efficiency left employers both relieved and secretly alarmed.

On the mission hall's "Bloodclaw" reputation crystal card, under her code name "Return to the Ashes," the number of divine crystals is growing rapidly like a snowball.

Each strike deliberately left a faint trace of the power of annihilation, like a silent declaration—here exists a being that fears no pollution, restrains the soul, and annihilates all laws. The covetous gazes gradually turned into awe-inspiring distancing.

When the number in the crystal card broke through the chasm of one million high-grade divine crystals, Si Lingle immediately stopped all missions.

She left the bustling and chaotic City of Eternal Mist, piloting an unassuming "Void Ship," and once again entered that desolate region of star debris—not the graveyard of stars, but rather the relatively stable and utterly desolate "Annihilation Star Belt" on its outskirts.

The stellar remains here have long since fallen silent, containing not a trace of resentment or fluctuations of law, only the purest, solidified aura of decay.

She chose the black core of a massive planet, its core long since cooled into indestructible "stellar iron." Deep within this dark, icy core, Si Lingle used divine crystals as energy nodes to deploy a triple defense:

1. Outer Ring: Ten Directions Annihilation Spirit Locking Array. Activated by divine crystals, it draws upon the heavy, deathly power of the starfall iron itself, forming a powerful physical and energy isolation barrier. Any matter or energy that approaches will be slowly dissolved and solidified during the approach process.

2. Central Ring: Reverse Time Sands. Using a small handful of time sands secretly obtained from the depths of the Star Graveyard, combined with spatial arrays, a region within the star core is created where the time flow differs from the outside world by a ratio of 1:30 (one year outside is thirty years inside). The cost is the burning of a massive amount of divine crystals.

3. Core: Void Devouring Return to Origin Field. With one's own ultimate Dao rhythm as the core, a force field is set up that can forcibly absorb, crush, and return all scattered energy (including the impact generated during the breakthrough) to nothingness, ensuring that there is no leakage during the breakthrough process and minimizing the risk of being sensed by unknown entities (especially the Eye of Judgment).

In the core area, Si Lingle sat cross-legged, like an unchanging statue.

The millions of divine crystals piled up around her transformed into a flowing river of energy light, constantly being absorbed into her body. Through the transformation of the [Heart Origin Universe Map], they were injected into the final star, which had become incredibly condensed and faintly revealed a tangible luster.

A century is but a fleeting three years on the outside due to the effect of the reverse-flowing sands, while inside the star's core, it is a long and lonely three thousand years.

She kept going back and analyzing:
*Every detail of devouring the essence of vengeful spirits and mastering the Dao of space in the Graveyard of Stars;
*Experiences in every life-or-death battle, fighting against pollution, and wielding the power of the Void Devourer in the Void Realm;

Most importantly, at the core of the giant vengeful spirit, the ultimate resonance when the origin of the [Final Decree: Return to Dust] is integrated into the spatial beacon—that is not just destruction, but also a rudimentary form of "creation" briefly touched upon in the absolute end: returning the filth to nothingness, allowing the pure "spatial beacon" to appear.

Her ultimate Dao aura was no longer merely the flames of destruction, but more like an iceberg gradually rising and falling on an endless sea of ​​annihilation—vast, profound, and containing an order of utmost coldness and purity. Each surge of divine crystal energy made this iceberg more solid and its outline clearer.

In the star chart, the final star's rotation slows down, yet its light grows brighter, the gray glow at its core seemingly crystallizing. The illusory stars surrounding it also seem to be imbued with a chilling sense of desolation.

at last……

When the last top-grade divine crystal completely turned to ashes.

Within Si Lingle's body, the "star core" crystal, compressed to its extreme by pure Daoist essence, suddenly stopped rotating!
Om-!
A wave of annihilation energy, far more powerful, more restrained, and more domineering than when she unleashed "Return to Dust" in the Graveyard of Stars, instantly spread out from her center, covering the entire Annihilation Star Belt!
The triple-layered formation trembled violently!

The outer ring of the Annihilation Spirit-Locking Array was like a dam thrown into a flood, struggling to resist the erosion of the Daoist aura originating from the core.

*The reverse-time quicksand area in Central collapsed instantly, and the flow of time returned to normal.

The core Void Devouring Origin Field operated at its limit, emitting a low, strained hum, forcibly absorbing and annihilating all the fading Daoist energy that attempted to dissipate. Inside the star core space, the laws cracked inch by inch like glass, then solidified at the critical point of collapse under the influence of the fading Daoist energy.

Only when the Siling music is present is all silence reign.

She slowly opened her eyes. No longer was it pure silver light; deep within her pupils seemed to be the cold, crystalline radiance left behind by billions of stars as they simultaneously faced annihilation—that was the "True Vision of the End."

The divine power within his body surged like a reversed galaxy, yet it carried a pressure that silenced even the laws of heaven and earth.

The originally ethereal Daoist essence has now condensed into something akin to a chain of laws. As her thoughts flowed, the space around her was silently covered by a very faint yet incredibly stable gray crystalline membrane—the nascent form of the End Dao Domain.

At this moment, with every gesture, she could plunge a small space into a state of absolute "return to dust," stripping away the superfluous and pointing directly to the essence. The Void Devouring Vortex was no longer a skill, but a manifestation of a "Tao" flowing in her instincts.

The early stage of True God Realm is a natural progression!

A century of desolation, all crystals exhausted. Si Lingle slowly rose, without any earth-shattering outward display of power, only an inner heaviness and coldness that reached its extreme. She clenched her fist slightly, and the wisps of gray energy emanating from between her fingers caused the surrounding spatial structure to groan silently.

There seemed to be a very faint trace of golden blood at the corner of his mouth, but it was instantly evaporated by the more powerful and pure Daoist aura flowing across his body.

His grey eyes, like an abyss, reflected the desolate stardust.

Ahead lies an even vaster and more perilous journey through the stars. And the "End" blade in her hand has been forged to a new level.

***
Inside the massive black star-destroying iron core at the center of the desolate Annihilation Star Belt.

Si Lingle emerged from her seclusion, the aura of the End Dao surrounding her instantly receding into her body like a weary bird returning to its nest, leaving behind only a profound and chilling aura. Her early True God realm was now firmly established, and the core of the End Star within her body was not only condensed like a diamond, but also subtly resonated with the "Heart Origin Universe Map" on a deeper level. It was as if the star map itself had begun to absorb the essence of the End, taking on a hint of the desolate, ashen hue.

However, she did not choose to immediately return to the bustling Void Realm or explore the deeper cosmos.

The road ahead will undoubtedly be more treacherous, and simply improving one's cultivation level will be far from sufficient to cope. She needs to transform her power into more direct and abundant trump cards.

So she once again ventured into the depths of this desolate star core. This time, instead of frantically absorbing energy to break through, she calmed down and organized the rich "stockpile" accumulated from the bloody battle in the Void Realm.

Alchemy: Using the crystal core of the "Soul-Devouring Mica Beast" as the main ingredient, along with various Yin-attribute spiritual herbs collected from the vicinity of the Netherworld Cold Pool, she started the furnace to refine the [Soul-Suppressing and Spirit-Fixing Pill].

This pill not only calms the mind, but also forms a layer of ash shield with an aura of finality in the sea of ​​consciousness when encountering a powerful enemy targeting the soul, forcibly annihilating the aftershocks of the invading soul attack.

As the furnace fire rose, the Daoist essence at her fingertips sometimes acted like a fine needle, precisely neutralizing the violent medicinal power; at other times, it swept in like a cold wave, instantly solidifying the essence of the elixir embryo.

Drawing a talisman: She took out the bark of a strange ancient tree obtained from the [Abyss of Dry Bones] and various mineral powders containing spatial fragments.

Using his own blood essence as a guide, mixed with a trace of the purest power of the end times, he dipped it into specially made Chaos Ink.

One after another, talismans took shape under her brush: [Nirvana Guide] can briefly distort the laws of a small area, slowing down powerful enemies;

The [Return to Nothingness Seal] can instantly detonate the annihilation power sealed within the talisman, causing localized spatial annihilation;
【Instant Trace】 combines the ultimate control of spatial Dao rhythm with the "stripping" characteristic of the end to compress an extreme escape speed far exceeding that of ordinary spatial talismans.

Forging: The palm-sized piece of [Star Soul Black Iron] that she had unexpectedly obtained during a guard mission and that was treasured by the Star Devouring Pirates became her main material.

Instead of forging it into a domineering weapon, she melted, shaped, and repeatedly refined it with the Void Devouring Vortex to purify impurities, eventually forging it into nine dark dominoes the size of fingernails.

Each domino is engraved with intricate defensive and backlash array patterns imbued with the Daoist principles of the Void – [Void Bone Guardian].

Once activated, it can automatically surround the user and protect them. It can not only resist physical and energy attacks that exceed its own level by one, but also convert part of the intensity of the attack into annihilation impact and feed it back to the attacker.

Recording Array Plate: Using the remaining rare materials containing spatial and stellar attributes, along with divine crystal powder, she began recording a portable array plate.

【Small Ten Directions Silent Array】, 【Hidden Void Illusion】, 【Chaotic Blade Tide Array】... Although these array plates are far less powerful than the triple array she set up deep in the star core, they are portable and can be activated instantly, which is enough to create a key advantage or retreat in skirmishes.

Her control over spatial nodes and energy flow has reached an exquisite level. Every stroke of her carving draws out tiny spatial ripples that are smoothed and solidified by the Daoist rhythm of the end, making the carvings seem to be naturally born on the array plate.

Fifty years passed quietly in this silent and efficient focus. When the last stroke of the last array plate was completed, eight or nine tenths of the rare materials that Si Lingle had stockpiled around him had been used up.

She exhaled softly, and where her breath passed, even the dust seemed to stop moving and the luster to dim slightly.

After fifty years of seclusion, what he gained was not only the dazzling array of elixirs, talismans, dominoes, and array plates before him, but also a more profound control over the power of the end. This control had become ingrained in his very being, a combat instinct that was almost instinctive.

Having bid farewell to the Starfall Iron Star Core that had protected her for decades, Si Lingle once again boarded the Void Ship and aimlessly sailed into a chaotic star field called the Mist Canyon.

This place is shrouded in an energy mist of gray and color all year round. Divine senses cannot penetrate it as if they were sinking into the sea. The space is fragmented and broken. It is a breeding ground for all kinds of strange star beasts, hidden secret realms and star pirate activities. It is also a good place to hone combat power and seek opportunities.

She concealed her presence, her grey cloak making her appear like a flowing shadow within the mist itself, silently traversing the fragmented asteroid belt.

Suddenly, a violent energy surge stirred the mist ahead. A sharp, piercing wind howled, seemingly capable of tearing apart the soul, mixed with the sharp whistling of powerful arrows piercing the air, and a ferocious, destructive roar filled with the aura of a beast!
At the source of the disturbance, a figure in cyan was frantically dodging.

It was a woman dressed in a tight-fitting palace dress embroidered with strange divine flower totems. Her figure was as agile as the wind, and she held a strange longbow that seemed to be solidified from a blue hurricane—clearly the symbol of the Divine Flower Palace.

Her cultivation level was at the late stage of True God, and her wind-elemental spiritual root made her incredibly fast, leaving behind streaks of blue afterimages in the air as she dodged.

But her opponent was breathtakingly powerful!

It was a strange beast resembling a giant wolfhound, its entire body covered in dark golden scales, with a scorching golden-red light flowing between the scales like magma.

Its body was as large as a mountain, and every time its four claws slammed down, the fragments of space groaned incessantly. A huge mouth split open, revealing a mouthful of sharp teeth that gleamed with golden light that could destroy the laws of nature. Its fangs were exposed, and a ferocious aura swept over you! Its aura had clearly reached the early stage of the Golden God realm!

Divine Flower Palace disciple Yue Miao had already given it her all! The Wind-Winged Longbow in her hand shone brightly, and a series of azure arrows imbued with the power of wind cutting and freezing shot out:

"Sky-Splitting Arrow!" The arrow tore through space, struck the giant beast's scales, and exploded into a string of dazzling sparks, leaving only a faint white mark on the dark gold scales.

"Frost Binding Arrow!" The cold air condensed like chains, attempting to bind the giant beast's limbs and slow its movements, but then a flash of golden-red light appeared, and the cold air chains shattered and evaporated inch by inch!

"Roar—!" The behemoth seemed enraged by these tickling attacks. It suddenly opened its mouth, and a golden-red destructive breath surged out like a torrent! Wherever the breath passed, the space was scorched with black marks, and the pressure of the Golden God Realm laws contained within instantly locked onto Le Miao!

Le Miao's pupils constricted sharply! Even the extreme speed granted by the Wind Spirit Root seemed sluggish under the suppression of the laws of this Golden God Realm!

The destructive breath was too wide and too fast; there was no way to avoid it! A trace of despair and unwillingness flashed in her eyes, and the divine power in her body surged wildly into her natal longbow, trying to gather all her strength for a final gamble!
At this critical moment!
The mist around Le Miao seemed to be gently brushed aside by an invisible hand, and a gray figure appeared silently between her and the torrent of destructive breath. The newcomer was none other than Si Ling Le!

Facing the destructive breath that could pulverize even an ordinary early-stage Celestial God cultivator, her gray eyes remained as calm as a ten-thousand-year-old icy pool. Without unleashing any earth-shattering power, she simply raised her right hand.

hum!
