Chapter 296 Cultivation World 85
That is the nexus of resentment and the remaining rules of protection on this battlefield!

When it was still some distance from the guardian's will, the core light cluster suddenly erupted with a destructive wave of light! This was a pure shock of law, enough to annihilate any primordial spirit below the level of a Profound God!
Just then, the void beside Si Lingle rippled, and three [Void Guardians] silently appeared, not actively defending themselves, but rather hovering in a triangle in front of her. The Void Returning Array patterns on the dominoes spun wildly, emitting a powerful gravitational field!

The light wave, powerful enough to obliterate a Xuan God, struck the triangular formation, only to be forcibly torn, twisted, and diverted by the invisible Void Gravitational Field! More than 60% of the destructive energy was swallowed and dissolved by the miniature Void vortex formed in the center of the Bone Guard!
The residual energy impact was still terrifying, but it was cleverly guided and deflected, grazing Si Lingle's body and blasting her into the void behind her!

Si Lingle's face paled slightly, her divine energy greatly depleted, but this brief delay was enough! Taking advantage of the spatial fluctuations and light and shadow disturbances caused by the aftershocks, her speed increased rather than decreased, like a gray lightning bolt weaving through the gaps in the rain of destructive light, instantly approaching the root of the giant bone!
"The End - Burial!" She crossed her hands in front of her, forming an extremely ancient and complex hand seal.

The instant the hand seal was formed was not a deafening explosion, but an absolute "deathly silence" and "stripping"! A point of deep gray light, so profound that it absorbed all light, condensed at her fingertip and silently pointed towards the chaotic ball of light at the core of the guardian will's phantom.

Silent annihilation! The frantic roar of the guardian will came to an abrupt halt! Wherever that gray light touched, the countless law runes, battlefield resentment, and even the remaining divine power that formed the core were as if thrown into a space of absolute zero, instantly losing all activity and being completely "returned to nothingness," their very existence erased!

The enormous phantom of the guardian will, like a giant beast stripped of its spine, instantly stiffened and disintegrated! The torrent of flying bone fragments, no longer under the control of the core will, scattered with a crash, crashing into various parts of the star debris and stirring up clouds of dust.

The entire ruins seemed to let out a deep sigh, then fell into an even deeper silence.

"Whoosh..." Le Miao's arrow shattered the last wave of fragments. Watching the huge phantom dissipate, his back was soaked with cold sweat.

She looked at Si Lingle, who stood calmly atop the giant bone, her body enveloped in a gray aura that seemed to blend into the place, and was overwhelmed with awe.

She just... almost single-handedly used an incomprehensible law of annihilation to obliterate the guardian will of a Xuan God-level being who had condensed laws? This has gone beyond the scope of "cross-level combat" and can be described as defying the heavens!

As the will to protect was extinguished, the energy of the Starscar Lands ceased to be violent, instead becoming relatively "gentle"—though still filled with deathly stillness. The massive starscar skeletons in the core area began to emit specks of pure, faint yet primal divine radiance.

After a moment of meditation, Le Miao quickly sensed an aura that resonated strongly with the Wind Law within him.

That was not a physical object, but rather strands of pure, ancient wind crystals, seemingly imbued with the will of an ancient storm, that had settled deep within the cracks of the massive skeleton!
It is few in number, but it is the most fundamental nourishment.

She immediately began to carefully draw upon, capture, and absorb this rare opportunity using the Wings of Wind. She could sense that these primordial divine crystals would not only make her wind essence more pure and refined, but might even allow her to touch the threshold of the Golden God Realm!
At the same time, beneath the root of the giant bone of the guardian will that Si Lingle had breached, a mysterious altar fragment slowly rose from the shattered ground (a solidified fragment of stardust).

The fragment was covered with wind-elemental divine runes, and at its center floated a seed-like phantom, resembling a piece of jade and glass—inscribed with three ancient divine characters, radiating a wave that made Le Miao's mind tremble.

This is not a complete inheritance, but more like a mark.

When Le Miao's divine sense came into contact with it, a vast flow of information surged into his sea of ​​consciousness: it was an incomplete movement technique called "Instant Shadow Step," the core of which was this realm called "Treading Time"!

If one can comprehend it, one can briefly step into the rift in time for super-limit movement, as if walking on time itself! Its profoundness far surpasses the movement techniques she currently cultivates!

Although it is incomplete, the value of this seed is no less than, and may even exceed, those Wind Origin Divine Crystals!

Le Miao was overjoyed and immediately concentrated all his attention to carefully seal the mark deep into his sea of ​​consciousness, waiting to comprehend it in the future.

On the other side, Si Lingle did not immediately collect the physical objects, but instead sat cross-legged on top of the giant bone. She was like the core of a huge vortex, and the aura of the end was completely released around her.

Under her precise control, the Void Guardian expanded the Void Return range, forming a powerful gravitational field that enveloped the entire core area of ​​the Star Remains!
boom--!
An invisible storm formed around her. However, this "storm" did not spread outwards, but rather engulfed her!

Scattered among the star debris, broken bones, and solidified star streams in this place, the incomparably pure "origin of death," "fragments of space," and remnants of the "law of annihilation" accumulated over countless years... these negative energies, which are like deadly poison and a dead end to ordinary gods and humans, are frantically absorbed and stripped away by the gravity of the Void Guardian!
A pure torrent, visible to the naked eye, gray and imbued with the laws of destruction and annihilation, flowed into Si Lingle's body like a thousand rivers flowing into the sea!
Her body was like a bottomless pit, frantically absorbing and refining these incomparably pure annihilation source energies.

Her aura began to surge and transform at a visible speed!
The initial barrier of True Godhood was instantly shattered under the impact of the massive energy, propelling the God into the middle stage, and relentlessly pushing towards the later stage and perfection! But this is only the beginning!
In the process of absorbing and refining this immense energy, Si Lingle's core consciousness sank into the deepest source of the most fundamental laws of this ancient god battlefield.

Her law of annihilation resonated and merged with the aura of "end" of this world. At the core of the Ruins Guardian, where it continuously devoured and transformed immense energy, deep within the boundless energy of annihilation, the essence of this law began to condense!
Time seemed to lose its meaning in the land of star debris. Perhaps several days had passed, perhaps several months.

When the last wisp of pure Annihilation Source Energy was completely refined and absorbed by Si Lingle, an indescribable, dazzling light suddenly erupted from the dormant core of the Void Phase Guardian within her body! It was not a physical light, but a powerful phenomenon at the level of laws!
A core element was born in the center of the Nine-Sided Bone Guardian!

It is not a regular crystal or a divine object; rather, it is more like a teardrop that has been forcibly solidified and contains the eternal stillness of countless galaxies' extinction processes!

Its texture is neither gold, jade, nor crystal; it presents the deepest gray color throughout, while its edges are filled with strange spatial ripples and time currents.

Divine Item: [Time Ruins Core]

Level: God-King level Primal Treasure (Not fully refined)

1. Sublimation of the Origin of Annihilation: It is a miraculous product born at the core level of the law by Si Lingle herself after absorbing the Origin of Annihilation accumulated over countless eras in this ancient god battlefield, combined with her own understanding of the Great Dao.

Its existence elevates the nihilistic essence of Siling Music to a new and unimaginable height.

2. The Opportunity of the Law of Time: "Time Ruins", as the name suggests, contains a trace of the intertwined law of time and return to the void.

During its formation, this core accidentally touched a fragment of time remaining in this place (a fragment of time from the moment the ancient god fell), imprinting a faint, primal fragment of the law of "time annihilation/return to stillness" into its core.

3. Key to Breaking Through to God King Realm: The greatest function of this item is to serve as the core of Si Lingle's breakthrough to the God King Realm!

It is not an external deity, but rather a highly condensed and sublimated version of her own Dao principles.

Once she completely refines it and fully integrates it with her own soul and body, using it as the foundation of a god-king and reshaping the source of divine power, she can break through the barriers of the three major realms of Golden God, Profound God, and Ancient God in one fell swoop, and enter the realm of god-king, with the law of annihilation as the core!

This is an unprecedented shortcut to the Great Dao! However, the refining process is extremely dangerous, requiring one to endure the dual erosion of annihilation and time disorder, making it a life-or-death struggle.

4. Evolution of the Void Guardian: After undergoing the baptism of this enormous energy and the birth of its core, the nine [Void Guardians] that gave birth to it have also undergone a transformation in essence.

Its power of returning to the void and its spatial defense capabilities have been greatly enhanced, and it has the potential to defend against attacks from God-King level beings, becoming an important aid to Si Lingle's breakthrough.

Si Lingle looked at the drop of "Time Ruins Core" floating in her palm, her gray eyes flashing with an unprecedented light.

Even with her composure, her heart was stirred.

This opportunity was far greater than she had anticipated. It wasn't a power bestowed by others, but rather something she forged here, using her own Dao as a guide, fusing the very essence of heaven and earth's annihilation! It was the foundation of a god-king uniquely hers!
Le Miao's gains:

Wind Origin Divine Crystal (10 strands): The purest wind elemental power, helping to cleanse the foundation, stabilize the true meaning of wind, and pave the way for breaking through to the Golden God realm.

The incomplete divine skill imprint [Treading Time]: The core seed of the ancient god-level movement technique "Shadow Step," containing a trace of the mysteries of space and time (primary space, touching upon the order of time). If one can comprehend and master it, it will allow Yue Miao's movement techniques to reach a level of unpredictability, making it an extremely precious opportunity for inheritance.

When the two awoke from their immersive cultivation and enlightenment, the land of star remains seemed more stable, but it had also lost the violent aura of the core laws. The true essence had already been absorbed by each of them.

“Fellow Daoist…” Le Miao looked at Si Ling Le, about to share her joy and gratitude, but suddenly fell silent.

At this moment, even though Si Lingle's divine power was restrained, just sitting there, she exuded a kind of majesty that made people feel lonely and tremble deep in their souls!
That wasn't deliberate oppression, but rather a wisp of the aura naturally emanating from the primordial law of annihilation within her body—a power far exceeding her current level and unique to the God-King's throne! It was like facing a cosmic singularity about to erupt!

Le Miao's gratitude instantly transformed into boundless shock and a barely perceptible...fear. She finally vaguely understood the terrifying nature of this "Fellow Daoist Nan Chu" before her and the extraordinary nature of the opportunity he had obtained! This was no ordinary breakthrough!

Si Lingle slowly rose, putting away the [Time Ruins Core] in her palm that had made Le Miao's soul tremble at just one glance. She looked back in the direction she had come from; the stabilized spatial vortex portal was slowly closing, and the ruins space was beginning to collapse unstablely.

"Let's go!" Si Lingle decided immediately.

The two transformed into streaks of light and rushed toward the closing portal.

The moment they left the ruins, the spatial vortex vanished completely, and the Star Desolation Land behind them turned into a chaotic turbulent current, forever sealed away.

The hidden [Time Ruins Core] within Si Lingle's body foreshadows a new, more magnificent, and even extremely dangerous journey about to begin—refining rare artifacts and attempting to become a God King!

The heavens of the divine realm will eventually be engulfed in towering waves because of this desolate gray shadow.

***
In the final instant before the spatial vortex closed, two figures shot out like streaks of light, and the ancient battlefield ruins behind them were completely swept away by the chaotic currents.

Si Lingyue didn't linger at all, nor did she offer any further explanation to Le Miao, who was still in a state of great shock. She could clearly sense the terrifying power and deadly allure contained within the [Time Ruins Core] in her body—it was both a ladder to heaven and a furnace for melting souls.

"Fellow Daoist, take care. Until we meet again." With this brief telepathic message, Si Lingle's figure merged into the void and vanished without a trace. Le Miao gazed in the direction she disappeared, her heart pounding. She understood that the gap between them was now as vast as an chasm. Fellow Daoist Nan Chu was destined to go to a realm she could not even imagine.

***
Si Lingle ventured deep into the most crucial and forbidden area of ​​an ancient star field in the God Realm—the "Silent Star Field." Here, the stars were lifeless, space was shattered, energy was raging and disordered, and the air was filled with an aura of destruction and decay. It was the secluded place she could find that best suited the laws of annihilation.

She selected the core of a completely cooled death star, filled with huge cavities, and waved her hand to set up a triple barrier.

everything's ready.

Si Lingle sat cross-legged in the center of the altar, her hands forming a mudra in front of her knees. Her gray eyes were completely closed, and she sank her spirit into the deepest emptiness. Within her body, the drop of the [Time Ruins Core] floated quietly.

"Refining!"

A silent shout resounded throughout his mind.

Like molten lava thrown into cold water! The [Time Ruins Core] suddenly erupted with an unimaginable torrent of annihilation! This torrent was not a simple energy surge, but rather the manifestation of the most primordial laws of "return to nothingness" and "end"!

Her divine body was the first to be impacted.

The nascent body of the God-King's throne, powerful enough to rival even the Xuan God, was stripped away and annihilated piece by piece like weathered sand under the scouring of this pure annihilating source! The melting of every inch of flesh brought excruciating pain that reached the very soul.

At the same time, the power of the core is constantly drawing on the deathly power of the star core, using the secret method of "Silent Dharma and Emptiness" to forcibly repair and reconstruct her body.

This is an inhuman torment—a cycle of destruction and rebirth, with each rebirth bringing it ever closer to the perfect, annihilated Dao body.

The fragment of "time extinction" hidden at the very core of the heart was activated.

Si Lingle's soul seemed to be thrown into a reversed river of time, forced to repeatedly experience various cosmic catastrophes since the birth of the divine realm: star explosions, plane collapses, divine twilight, and the annihilation of all things...

Each "experience" erases a trace of her memory and diminishes a trace of her existence.

If she hadn't practiced the "Silent Dharma and Emptiness" and contemplated the birth and death of the universe, her mind would have long since sunk into this endless vortex of time and emptiness, turning into nothingness.

During three hundred years of torment, she struggled back from the brink of complete annihilation countless times, engraving "annihilation" itself into the core of her true spirit.

The primordial laws contained within the core resonated violently with the environment of the desolate star field.

The entire core of the dead star and even its outer star field trembled violently, and huge spatial rifts were constantly being torn apart. Powerful native stellar creatures were even attracted by this phenomenon.

Fortunately, the Ruins Realm, composed of nine [Ruins Guardians], either swallowed up or deflected these disturbances, preventing them from reaching the core altar.

The runes on the guardian dominoes flowed endlessly, bearing terrifying pressure, and they themselves were constantly being tempered and evolved.

Si Lingle's core cultivation technique was operating wildly.

The boundless negative energies of destruction, decay, and spatial collapse in the Silent Starfield are continuously drawn into the body through the Void Guardian's Void Gravitational Field, transforming into pure Silent Source Power, like firewood thrown into the law furnace formed by the core.

The core is the transformation center, converting all of this into a nihilistic divine power that belongs exclusively to her and bears the mark of "Time Ruins".

***
Time flows silently, and in this eternal darkness, only the figure on the altar sometimes flickers like a candle in the wind, almost swallowed by the torrent of ashes that erupt from it; at other times it is as solid as a rock, emanating an ever-purer and ever-deepering aura of annihilation.

Three hundred years is but a fleeting moment, yet it feels as long as eternity.
