Chapter 685 The Heaven-Opening Fist Shatters the Nirvana Phoenix!

Zhang Yuan clenched his left fist, as if he had gathered the domineering will of the previous two punches, and gathered all the essence of his Nine Abyss Body, Mountain and River Cave Heaven, Return to the Void Power, and Chaos Furnace!
The slow raising of the fist seemed to drain all the light, sound, and even the rhythm of space itself within a hundred miles!

The fist, though simple and unadorned, exuded a terrifying aura of creation and reshaping of the universe!

Creation of the world!
Instead of aiming at the core, he punched out at the space node where the remnants of the Nirvana Origin were located, the world that had been crushed and solidified by the "Ruins of Return"!
silent!

There is no light either!
But all the powerful figures who had reached the Grandmaster level or above—whether it was Pei Lie, Lu Tianchu, Yin Jiuyou, or even the last remaining will of Huo Huang—before they witnessed a scene that made their souls tremble.

A clear, profound, and eternal black "straight line" extends straight out from Zhang Yuan's fist!

That's not a spatial rift!
That is the passage of "nothingness" through which existence itself is temporarily separated!

It is the absolute scar left by the power and will in the material world!
It was as if a giant brush had brutally slashed open a deep and straight wound on the canvas of the world!

That passage of "nothingness" pierced through the core of the Nirvana Flame, which was solidified in the "Return to Nothingness" cage, with unparalleled precision!
There was no explosion, no dazzling flames.

The core of the fire seed flickered violently a few times, its light fading and shifting uncertainly. It was as if, after experiencing extreme fear and utter despair, the last vestige of its will to resist was crushed like a fragile bubble by this earth-shattering punch.

"puff!"

A very slight sound.

The core of the flame suddenly went out!

But it hasn't disappeared!
In the instant it was completely extinguished and transformed into the purest chaotic energy, a gentle white light containing endless vitality and the origin of all things suddenly burst forth from the center of the "extinguished" ashes!

That is the true, unpolluted, and purest power of Nirvana!

It is the most primal life fire left after the Fire Phoenix has stripped away all violence, fear, resentment and unwillingness!
This soft white light is no longer the flame of destruction that burns the eight wastelands, but the light of life that nourishes all things!
In the "chaotic" passage opened by Zhang Yuan's fist, it seemed to have found the only way home and the only way to survive. Spontaneously, docilely, and with unprecedented purity and awe, it flowed towards Zhang Yuan's slowly raised left palm like a hundred rivers flowing into the sea!

A new phoenix, tall and graceful, with an extraordinary and mysterious appearance, yet only the size of an ordinary crane, with a beautifully streamlined body covered in pure white flames like jade, and eyes that were lively and gentle, without a trace of violence, gracefully spread its wings in the soft white light, and let out a clear and melodious cry filled with infinite dependence and submission, before lightly landing on Zhang Yuan's left shoulder.

It even deliberately withdrew all the heat that could melt steel, and the pure fire of rebirth was as warm as the spring sun, gently licking Zhang Yuan's cheeks.

"Nirvana...rebirth..."

Nie Duanqiu, who had been watching the whole thing, looked at the pure white phoenix embryo gracefully perched on Zhang Yuan's shoulder, like a divine bird making a pilgrimage. His lips moved, and he uttered a few words, his face filled with pure shock and bewilderment.

"Not beaten to death... but beaten into submission... beaten until they willingly reverted to their rudimentary state and offered their loyalty?" He had never heard of such a way of subduing a strange beast!

The sea breeze swept by, carrying away the black ash flying everywhere and the lingering smell of sulfur.

silence!

On the vast East China Sea, only the sea breeze whispers.

The eyes of hundreds of thousands of people, whether they were new soldiers, sword cultivators, or experts from the Zhen Tian Division, were like frozen sculptures, staring blankly at the dark figure standing proudly in the sky, and the pure white divine bird on his shoulder that symbolized power and submission.

The 50,000 newly recruited soldiers watched as the earth-shattering, jet-black fist mark slowly closed in space, and gazed at the elegant white phoenix. After a moment of silence, they erupted in a frenzied roar like a collapsing mountain and a tsunami: "Our Great Qin—"

"mighty--"

"Daqin——"

"Majestic!" The sound shook the heavens and resounded throughout the eight hundred miles of sea!

That was the instinctive outpouring of witnessing miracles and following in the footsteps of an invincible powerhouse!

Fire Island still has flowing lava, but the aura of the once-dominant overlord of the heavens has vanished, replaced by a tranquility that has been subdued and conquered by a greater will.

Yin Jiuyou, the head of the Netherworld Department, let out a long sigh of relief. His gaze toward Zhang Yuan was filled with indescribable awe. He muttered to himself, "With this gentle, controllable, and pure Nirvana Phoenix Fire... the Alchemy Pavilion and the Weapon Forging Furnace may truly be able to forge divine artifacts that rival those of the ancient Heavenly Court!"

Zhang Yuan slowly withdrew his fist and stood in the void.

The phoenix on his shoulder gently flapped its wings, its pure white flames reflecting on his calm and undisturbed face.

An invincible power, unmatched in its time and controlling life and death, permeated the depths of the souls of every spectator, like an invisible tide.

The fist technique that unites heaven and man, the physical power that can sweep across eternity, at this moment, on the vast East Sea, forges an indestructible divine might!

Zhang Yuan's gaze turned to the depths of the boundless sea.

"Demon Lord Xuanqiong, I will be coming to find you soon."

Zhang Yuan spoke softly, his eyes revealing a profound light.

The Zhenhaiwei Lieutenant General's token hanging at his waist shimmered with a faint light, drawing upon the power of 36,000 Zhenhai Pillars.

The power to suppress the sea has been bestowed upon him!

By intimidating the seas and suppressing the chaotic sea monsters, one can gain the power to control the seas!
The ancient Dao still operates in the heavens.

"boom--"

The core volcano, overwhelmed by the force of the previous earth-shattering collision and the interruption of its rebirth, finally groaned in pain.

The massive mountain began to crack, the rock walls peeled away, and jagged fissures spread out, causing the earth to tremble.

"Boom--!"

With a deafening roar, the massive Fire Island, centered on the crater, broke apart and began to collapse and sink on a large scale!
The boiling lava no longer flowed freely. Instead, it was pulled by an invisible force, rapidly cooling and solidifying into a huge, dark red seabed platform that lifted the sunken area of ​​the island back up and connected it with the remaining reefs.

In the very center of this solidified magma seabed, a bowl-shaped giant crater miraculously appeared.

The pit was not filled with seawater, but with a viscous, honey-like, and warm, shimmering blue spring water!

"This is... the Fire Source Spirit Spring!" The head of the Secret Medicine Department, Medicine Bodhi, was the first to exclaim in surprise, his voice filled with barely suppressed joy. "Yin and Yang are reversed, and the essence of earth fire and the cold spring of the sea eye have merged to form such a vast and pure Fire Source Spirit Land!"

He leaped to the spring and bent down to scoop up a handful of the deep blue water.

The spring water was warm to the touch, unlike ordinary water which was heavy; instead, it possessed a unique, life-giving power that nourished the flesh and bones.

Deep within the spring, countless tiny crystal beads, each the size of a pigeon egg, translucent like rubies, with flames seemingly flowing within, have settled there. These are the Fire Spirit Beads, containing the pure power of the fire spirit!
