Chapter 295 Cultivation World 84
Upon entering, instead of the cave hall one might expect, one finds a narrow passageway leading deep underground.

The air was icy cold, carrying a strong smell of decaying dust.

After they entered, the cracks in the stone door behind them quietly closed, as if it had never been opened at all.

The area ahead was completely shrouded in darkness, and even divine sense was suppressed by some force, its range greatly limited and unclear.

"Be careful, the real test has only just begun," Le Miao whispered, conjuring a small, soft yet highly penetrating lantern in his hand, barely illuminating a few feet in front of him.

At the end of the passageway, a vast, blood-red space suddenly opened up.

The ground was densely covered with ancient blades and giant axes, rusty and emitting the howls of vengeful spirits, their blades facing upwards, gleaming coldly.

The air was thick with the stench of blood and the aura of the laws of death.

"The laws here are strange; flying is forbidden!" Le Miao tried to take flight, but his body suddenly sank. The ground was a blood-red abyss of blades, making it impossible to walk directly, while the void was filled with invisible rays of death, cutting down anything that dared to overstep them.

Le Miao remained focused, his Wind Wings held back: "I can sense 'cyclone nodes,' and the wind can carry me."

Si Lingle's gaze was fixed on several enormous, heart-like, slowly pulsating sword hilt array eyes deep within the mountain of swords. The pulsation triggered the death laws of the entire space, while also exposing the path and nodes of the power flow—the weak points.

"I'll break the node, you clear the path," Si Lingle said calmly.

Le Miao nodded and jumped down.

She did not land, but instead stepped on the faint vortex of air currents surging between the blades. Her figure was like a willow catkin in the wind, swaying and dancing. Each step was taken on the nodes of the air currents, avoiding the deadly blades on the ground and the invisible cuts in the void.

Her longbow became a guide rod, shooting out streaks of blue light that guided the airflow, creating a relatively safe aerial bridge for herself.

Si Lingle did not move. She stood on the edge of the mountain of knives, gray starlight swirling around her fingertips.

Her keen perception of space and energy flow allowed her to detect the deadly "chains" of energy pulsating from the massive blade hilt array eyes as Le Miao moved at high speed.

Just as the pulsating, deathly energy was about to reach its peak, transforming into a devastating area-of-effect attack that would engulf Le Miao's inevitable path—

Si Lingle made her move! She tapped her fingers several times in the air! Silently, only a faint gray light flashed and disappeared. Those dots were the key links in the energy chain!
It was as if an invisible needle had precisely pierced a blood vessel! The pulse suddenly became erratic!

The surging torrent of death, which should have burst forth and devoured everything, suddenly paused and dissipated at its source just before it erupted! The feeling was incredibly strange, as if a punch that should have been earth-shattering had suddenly turned into a negligible gust of wind.

The laws governing the entire space experienced a momentary distortion and stagnation.

As Le Miao was dodging and weaving with exquisite agility above the mountain of knives and the pool of blood, she suddenly felt the immense deathly intent that was about to pull her into the abyss vanish in an instant!
She immediately realized that it was Si Lingle who had made the move, and her shock was even greater. She dared not be negligent, and with a burst of strength, her body shot out like an arrow, rushing through the fleeting "safe passage"!

Crossing the mountain of knives is a massive bridge of bones.

As you walk to the center of the bridge, the surrounding scenery suddenly changes!
Surrounded by swirling clouds and mist, the scene transformed into the familiar magnificent palaces and celestial terraces of the Divine Flower Palace.

The Master's loving call, the fellow disciples' warm waving, and the unforgettable inner demons and deep-seated fears were unearthed, impacting the mind and spirit. This illusion pointed directly to the heart, feeling incredibly real.

Le Miao was the first to be affected, her eyes momentarily glazed over, the lantern flickering uncertainly. She had deep feelings for her sect, and the illusion posed a great threat.

A ripple flashed in Si Lingle's gray eyes, like the still surface of a lake to which a stone had been thrown.

"Silence!" A cold word, carrying an absolute will to annihilate, resounded like thunder in Le Miao's mind.

At the same time, Si Lingle took a step forward, not towards the temptation in the illusion, but directly towards an inconspicuous, distorted point of light in the void to the left, which looked like an eyeball peering and rotating—this was the core projection point of the illusion's power!
She seemed to have been born with an understanding of the root of these illusions.

The gray light, carrying the meaning of "returning to nothingness," pointed towards the point of light from the fingertips!
puff!

Like a bursting bubble, the beautiful illusion instantly crumbled, leaving only a cold bridge of bones and the deep darkness beneath it. Le Miao, covered in cold sweat, looked at Si Ling Le with lingering fear and gratitude in her eyes.

After overcoming numerous obstacles, the two finally entered the core area of ​​the cave.

Before them lay a seemingly peaceful, enormous altar space, constructed of unknown black boulders, yet empty at its center.

The walls were covered with indistinct ancient divine prayers, and the air was filled with a strange aura that mixed decaying dust with pure divine energy.

Le Miao breathed a slight sigh of relief: "Finally..." However, just as she stepped onto the central stone platform of the altar!
Om-! ! !
The altar floor suddenly blazed with a blinding, ghastly white light! A colossal, nested array of soul-locking runes was instantly activated!
call out!call out!call out!
Countless pale bone spurs, moving at extreme speeds and almost impossible to see with the naked eye, suddenly shot out from the ground, walls, and even the void like a torrential downpour, silent yet carrying an aura of annihilation!

The target was aimed directly at Le Miao's vital points!

The bone spikes were imbued with the same, yet more refined and concentrated, death laws as the surrounding curses, impossible to avoid or block! This was not an opportunity, but the most vicious killing formation!
Le Miao's pupils instantly shrank to pinpoints! A deadly sense of crisis made her blood almost freeze! Too fast! Too close! Too ruthless! She didn't even have time to activate her protective magic weapon! Her previous relaxation instantly turned into overwhelming despair!
Just at the critical moment!
A gray shadow appeared beside Le Miao as if by teleportation! It was Si Ling Le! She seemed to have sensed the danger even before the killing formation itself! The moment Le Miao's foot touched the stone platform, she was already poised to strike!
"rise!"

Si Lingle let out a low shout, not loud, but carrying a will that seemed to freeze the very space. She didn't even raise a hand to block!

With a slight thought, the nine dark dominoes that had been circling around her, almost hidden in the darkness of the void—the [Void Bone Guardians]!—instantly appeared three of them! Buzz—!
One shield was placed in front of Le Miao's face, another in front of his heart, and the last one hovered in mid-air above Le Miao's head, forming a triangular protective formation!
Ding ding ding ding! ! !
In an instant, a dense, rain-like thud resounded throughout the altar! Hundreds upon hundreds of terrifying, pale bone spikes were precisely embedded in the [Void Bone Guardian]!
Time seemed to slow down at this moment.

Those bone spikes, which contained deadly power that even a Golden God Realm expert would find difficult to withstand, did not produce a deafening roar when they collided with the dark dominoes.

The intricate array patterns on the dominoes, so complex they were dizzying and imbued with the Daoist principles of returning to nothingness and annihilation, suddenly lit up with a gray-black light!

All the impacting force, whether physical kinetic energy or the power of the death law contained within, seemed to be thrown into the abyss of nothingness, greedily "devoured" by the array patterns!
The death law contained in the bone spurs is forcibly "eroded" away from their sharp surface power the moment they come into contact!

At the same time, the dominoes trembled slightly. The immense power it had "devoured," after being transformed by the Returning Void Dao Array, became a purer, more concentrated, and destructive shockwave, free of any impurities of laws, carrying only pure destructive energy. This shockwave traveled along the direction from which the bone spikes had come—

A devastating backlash!

Bang!Bang!Bang!
It was like an invisible giant hammer striking the hidden bone spikes that were spraying everywhere on the altar!
The space trembled violently!

The pale white array pattern flickered and twisted violently, as if it had suffered a severe internal injury!

The pale light suddenly dimmed, and the continuous attack of bone spikes was abruptly extinguished by the "devouring-backlash" of the three dominoes! Only the dense, rapidly dissolving bone spike remains on the altar stone slab remained.

Le Miao stood frozen in place, a bead of cold sweat sliding down her forehead, her heart still pounding wildly, almost bursting out of her chest. The extreme chill of having just brushed with death had not yet completely dissipated.

She looked at the three dark dominoes floating in front of her, which had just shielded her from death, and felt the lingering aura of annihilation emanating from them. The turbulent waves in her heart almost swallowed her whole.

If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she would never have believed that a defensive magic weapon of a True God in the early stage could withstand and instantly disintegrate such a terrifying Golden God-level killing trap!

Si Lingle remained expressionless as the three dominoes silently disappeared back into the void beside her.

Her gray eyes narrowed slightly, showing no sign of relaxation after repelling the trap. Instead, she scanned the seemingly empty altar space, which was actually fraught with danger, with even sharper eyes.

The counterattack just now seems to have triggered a deeper arrangement here...

Above the empty stone platform at the center of the altar, the space began to ripple violently, like water ripples!
A purer, more expansive, and seemingly primordial spatial aura, as if originating from the very beginning of the universe, is slowly seeping out from the source of those folds!
The light is distorting, the laws are humming, and a "portal" seemingly leading to an unknown and mysterious place is slowly forming! Behind this terrifying trap lies the true entrance to the ancient god's ruins!
The space above the altar rippled like waves, eventually settling into a deep, boundless vortex that seemed to lead to the depths of the starry sky.

That pure and vast aura of spatial origin surged forth like a tide, carrying an ancient, desolate, and even slightly melancholic connotation. The portal was now secure, no longer merely an entrance, but more like an anchor point for spatial coordinates.

"The real door... has opened." Le Miao's voice was filled with the gasps of relief after surviving a disaster and barely suppressed excitement. She looked at Si Lingle, her eyes filled with awe and trust.

If it weren't for Fellow Daoist "Nan Chu's" incredible defense and countermeasures against that deadly trap, she would have already become a wisp of soul on the altar.

Si Lingle's grey eyes were fixed on the vortex of stars, the lingering ashes on her fingertips not yet completely dissipated. She could sense that what lay beyond the portal was not simply a blessed land, but rather a fragment of ancient god-era star remains, forcibly gathered and sealed by the laws of space!

"Enter." Her words remained concise, yet she was the first to transform into a gray shadow merging into the void, silently passing through the starry portal. Le Miao took a deep breath and followed closely behind.

The moment you pass through the portal, you experience an extreme sense of weightlessness and a chaotic interplay of spatial laws. The view suddenly opens up, followed by a breathtaking shock.

They found themselves in an unimaginably vast void, with not a solid ground below, but countless enormous, star-like broken skeletons, fractured mountains, dried-up, solidified, strangely colored remnants of star rivers, and distorted spatial faults!
The cold starlight (not from external stars, but the divine glow emanating from the ruins themselves) cast a faint glow, outlining the contours of this sea of ​​death. The air was filled with the chilling aura of decay, fragmentation, and lingering divine presence.

This is the true graveyard of the gods, a forgotten fragment of an ancient battlefield! Time and space here seem to have been forcibly frozen at the moment before collapse.

"My God..." Le Miao gasped. Even though she was mentally prepared, the scene still exceeded her expectations. The void beneath her feet carried a powerful gravitational pull, but it was also filled with fragments of the laws of death that made one's soul tremble. She had to constantly circulate her divine power to resist it.

Si Lingle's eyes, however, were unusually bright.

The aura of "death" and "silence" contained in this land of star remains resonated strongly with her own law of final annihilation!

It is as if every huge bone and every solidified star stream still retains an energy source that can be "returned to nothingness" or "reshaped".

She sensed a deeper calling, not from any specific object, but from the very fabric of this world. This land, where the laws of nature were broken, would become the perfect crucible for her to elevate her cultivation!
Just as the two stepped into the ruins, a faint fluctuation of will, almost blending into the starlight, swept over them.

Om-!
Deep within the core of the stellar remnant, space trembled! A blurry phantom suddenly materialized on the largest, pale white giant bone in front, which resembled a divine dragon's skeletal pillar!

It was not humanoid, but rather a guardian will formed from the laws of destruction and the remaining divine instincts of this place! The phantom was twisted and distorted, exuding a violent, chaotic, and all-destroying aura, far more terrifying than the golden god beasts outside, and faintly reaching the level of the peak of the Profound God!

"Outsiders...Erosion...Destruction!" Intermittent, violent, and hostile thoughts swept across the void!

The guardian's will roared, and the entire Star Remains Space trembled! Countless huge fragments of bone and solidified star fragments were controlled by it, like a world-destroying meteor shower, carrying terrifying power capable of shattering stars and lingering resentment and curses, and crashed down on the two of them!

This attack was far superior to any of their previous mechanisms; it was the manifestation of the destructive power accumulated throughout the entire ruins!
"Fellow Daoist, be careful! This is a projection of the laws left over from the ancient god battlefield!" Le Miao's face turned pale. He spread his Wind Breath Wings at full power, gathering an unprecedentedly powerful Wind Meteor Arrow Intent. The azure light tore through space, meeting the oncoming torrent of massive bone fragments!

However, Si Lingle moved the moment her protective will coalesced.

Instead of confronting the countless fragments, she moved with a blurry figure, almost as if teleporting across the shattered spatial rifts, towards the core of that phantom—the root region of that ghastly white giant bone!

Her final gray eyes locked onto the "core" of the phantom's energy flow—a core of light composed of countless shattered law runes that was constantly collapsing and reassembling!
