Staying in the sect, controlling beasts and cultivating immortals

"Destroy."

The light of annihilation of chaos silently burst forth from his palm!

There was no earth-shattering explosion, only a soul-chilling sense of annihilation. That ray of light was both supremely pure and supremely terrifying.

It easily swallowed the giant claw that the bone-armored beast reached out. It didn't sever it, it didn't shatter it, but rather it was like a red-hot iron pressed onto ice and snow, or like an invisible eraser wiping away a mark—the bone claw, along with the air, space, and even light around it, silently turned into the most basic particles of dust the moment it came into contact with the Chaotic Annihilation Light, and completely dissipated!

Ouch——!
The bone-armored beast let out a deafening scream. The severed wrist was smooth as a mirror, without blood, only absolute nothingness! The residual force of the Chaos Annihilation Light continued unabated, rapidly spreading along the severed arm!
The beast's supposedly indestructible pale bone armor was more fragile than paper in the face of this ray of light, instantly disintegrating and vaporizing!
Its massive body twisted and retreated wildly, its single eye filled only with primal fear; however, all its struggles were in vain. The Chaotic Annihilation Light, like a malignant tumor clinging to bone, instantly enveloped its entire body.

On the wasteland, the massive figures of the bone-armored beasts suddenly froze, then turned into a flurry of pale ashes, which were swept away by a fierce wind and vanished without a trace, as if they had never existed.

On the other side, although the Vengeful Fire Soul Beast was temporarily locked by Chen Xueqing's Life Vines, the ever-changing vengeful poison at its core suddenly contracted and exploded!

Countless pained faces made of pure resentment screamed as they broke free of the vines, like a torrent of water, carrying malice that could freeze souls and filthy soul poison that could corrode magical artifacts, rushing straight at Chen Xueqing!
The light of the Life Gem flickered violently under the impact of this filthy torrent, and large swaths of the emerald vines withered and turned black. Chen Xueqing groaned, blood trickling from the corner of her mouth, her life force rapidly fading.

"Xue Qing!" Wang Cheng roared, trying to break away and return to help, but the Skeleton Tyrant seized the opportunity and brought down his rusty giant axe with the force to split mountains and shatter peaks!
The dark golden, decaying gale pressed down on him, making his bones creak. He could only roar and brace himself against the attack with his sword. Boom! The golden light of his domineering body trembled violently, and Wang Cheng was slammed to his knees by the immense force, his feet sinking deep into the rocks.

For the first time, Yu Changsheng's gaze carried a chilling killing intent. He didn't move, but simply pointed a finger at the torrent of resentment and venom sweeping over Chen Xueqing.

The light of annihilation of chaos reappears!

This time, light is no longer about destruction, but about reversal!

The pure, chaotic aura instantly plunged into the core of the torrent of resentment. The twisted, wailing faces froze abruptly, and the resentment, curses, and filthy energy that constituted them, as if encountering their nemesis, were forcibly stripped away, decomposed, and annihilated by the all-purifying properties of the Chaotic Annihilation Light! The menacing torrent of resentment, like black snow thrown into a raging fire, rapidly melted and faded, finally turning into harmless wisps of blue smoke that dissipated in the malevolent wind.

A shrill, distorted scream emanated from the core of the Vengeful Fire Soul Beast. The very foundation upon which it depended for existence—the primordial resentment accumulated over countless years—was forcibly "purified" by the Chaotic Annihilation Light! The eerie green flames that constituted its illusory body swayed wildly like weeds with severed roots, flickering erratically, and its aura plummeted.

"Now's the time!" Chen Xueqing wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, a cold glint flashing in her eyes.

The Life Gem burst forth with an unprecedented emerald light, and the remaining vines, as if aided by divine intervention, instantly pierced the soul beast's weakened flame core, which had been damaged by its own source! The power of the Law of Life was no longer a constraint, but transformed into the sharpest spear, piercing through fiercely!
The soul beast let out a final, unwilling cry, and its eerie green flame core shattered like a punctured balloon, turning into countless embers that were quickly scattered by the harsh winds of the wasteland.

Almost at the same time as the soul beast was annihilated, another deafening roar rang out!

It's a skeletal tyrant!
Its three heads turned towards Yu Changsheng simultaneously, their eyes filled with a mixture of ferocity and greed. Yu Changsheng unleashed the Chaos Annihilation Light twice in succession. Although his aura remained as deep as the sea, the instincts of the Skeleton Tyrant, a predator of the wilderness, keenly detected an extremely subtle fluctuation—a brief respite that inevitably occurs after the powerful force has been activated!
Its massive body unleashed a speed disproportionate to its size, abandoning Wang Cheng, who was kneeling under its pressure, and shattering the earth. Like a moving mountain of bones, it carried a destructive aura that could crush everything, and crashed straight into Yu Changsheng!

The rusty giant axe was raised high, and the dark gold divine fragments wrapped around the axe blade burned wildly, releasing a decaying aura that was powerful enough to erode the laws of nature, and preemptively locked onto the space around Yu Changsheng!

"Watch out!" Wang Cheng's eyes were bloodshot as he forcibly suppressed his surging blood and lunged forward again without regard for anything else! However, the gale generated by the giant axe was like a solid wall, slamming him away again!

Faced with this savage, violent, and precisely calculated deadly charge, Yu Changsheng's eyes remained calm and composed. He didn't even try to dodge; he merely raised his left hand slightly.

Om-!
Within the palm of his hand, a miniature vortex of chaos silently appeared. At the center of the vortex, a point of primordial chaotic light faintly shone.

The Skeleton Tyrant moved with lightning speed, but Yu Changsheng's left palm strike seemed to freeze time. The miniature chaotic vortex lightly imprinted itself on the Skeleton Tyrant's massive chest, composed of countless weapon skeletons and flowing with fragments of dark gold divinity.

No loud crash was heard. Time seemed to stretch out and distort at that moment.

The skeletal tyrant's massive body, capable of crushing mountains, was instantly absorbed and disintegrated upon contact with the chaotic vortex, as if sinking into an invisible swamp.

The dark gold divine fragments flowing across its surface, like ice and snow thrown into a furnace, emitted a piercing sizzling sound, quickly dimmed and dissolved, and were greedily devoured by the chaotic vortex!
The countless bones and broken weapons that make up its body have weathered over hundreds of millions of years, losing their luster, cracking, and turning into dust at a speed visible to the naked eye!
The expression on the three heads of the skeletal tyrant froze completely, transforming from savage greed into extreme fear and disbelief. It tried to roar, but its voice was swallowed up by the chaotic vortex.

The massive body rapidly disintegrated and shrank without a sound. The giant axe, wreathed in decaying evil energy, completely crumbled into iron filings when it was only three feet away from Yu Changsheng's head, and fell down in a flurry.

In just three breaths! Only a small pile of dull bone dust remained, along with a faint, almost imperceptible aura of dark gold divinity, completely swallowed by the vortex. The ferocious skeletal tyrant vanished like a sandcastle erased.

The wasteland fell into a deathly silence. Only the howling wind continued to howl, but it sounded particularly hollow. The other two ferocious creatures that had pounced on them—one a lurking shadow assassin, the other a roaring rock behemoth—abruptly stopped in their tracks. Their scarlet eyes, reflecting the still-warm pile of bone dust, were filled with the most primal fear.

They didn't even dare to look at Yu Changsheng again. They let out a short, mournful cry, turned around, and fled desperately into the depths of the wasteland, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

Wang Cheng, leaning on the wreckage of the giant sword, straightened up, panting. He looked at the pile of bone dust, then at Yu Changsheng's calm and composed profile, and his heart trembled.

Chen Xueqing quickly walked to his side. The two looked at each other and saw the shock and relief in each other's eyes.

The power that Yu Changsheng just displayed has completely exceeded their understanding of the "late stage of Nascent Soul"!

The annihilating light that casually obliterates bone-armored beasts, the bizarre reversal and purification of the source of resentment and poison, and the final silent "Return to the Void" that devours the skeletal tyrant... every method carries an absolute domineering power that crushes powerful enemies!
“Senior Brother Yu…” Chen Xueqing’s voice trembled slightly, as if she had just survived a calamity, and she was about to speak. “Hmm?” Yu Changsheng suddenly frowned, his gaze shooting like cold lightning towards a distorted spatial ripple hundreds of feet away.

Almost at the same time!

"Hehehe... Brilliant! Absolutely brilliant!" A hoarse, dry voice, like the scraping of metal, suddenly rang out, filled with undisguised greed and malice. "The Chaos Source Power is indeed wondrous and boundless! Such power is a waste to leave it in the hands of ants like you!"

The space rippled violently, and a figure shrouded in a wide black robe stepped out. The black robe fluttered without wind, emanating a terrifying pressure that was even colder and more viscous than the desolate winds.

His face was covered by a bronze demon mask that looked like it was both crying and laughing, revealing only a pair of eyes—two bottomless vortexes that seemed capable of swallowing all light.

In his hand, he held a hideous, dark blood-red scythe. The blade was covered with a thick, blood-like aura, emanating a terrifying aura of tearing, cursing, and annihilating souls!
It was Yuan Shou, the powerful member of the Yuan Clan who had once hunted them down in the Xuanwu Remains Space and forced Yu Changsheng to fall into the Filthy Abyss!
"Abyss Hunt!" Wang Cheng's eyes instantly turned bloodshot, and his domineering golden light erupted. The remains of the giant sword pointed straight ahead, and his old and new grudges turned into a raging fire. "You persistent bastard!" Chen Xueqing's pretty face was also frosty. The Life Gem floated in front of her, and its emerald light locked onto the black-robed figure. She was ready for battle.

Yu Changsheng raised his hand, signaling the two to calm down. His deep gaze fell on the Soul-Destroying Blood Scythe in Yuan Shou's hand, then slowly moved to the eyes behind the ghost mask. His voice was so calm that no emotion could be detected: "The blood debt must be repaid."

"Still?" Yuan Shou seemed to have heard the biggest joke in the world. His voice, hidden beneath the ghost mask, was filled with piercing sarcasm. "You, an ant who has managed to crawl back from the filthy abyss by sheer luck? Last time, you were saved by the remnant soul of that dead turtle. This time, I'll see who can protect you!"

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly swung the Soul-Destroying Blood Scythe in his hand!
Woo——!
An invisible wave of curse spread out instantly! It wasn't the impact of sound, but a malevolent will that directly affected the very essence of the soul!

Wang Cheng and Chen Xueqing both groaned at the same time, feeling as if their souls were being pierced and churned by countless rusty steel needles stained with blood. The excruciating pain, accompanied by intense dizziness and nausea, rushed straight to their brains!

The protective golden light and life barrier fluctuated violently, showing signs of collapsing! The ferocity of the Soul-Destroying Blood Scythe was even greater than it had been at the Xuanwu Remains!

However, just as this terrifying ripple of the soul curse was about to touch Yu Changsheng's body—

hum!
On Yu Changsheng's back, the dormant chaotic mark suddenly lit up! It was no longer a faint halo, but burst forth with a soft yet incredibly resilient chaotic original color light screen, flowing through his entire body like water ripples.

chi chi chi...

The invisible ripples of curse struck the chaotic light barrier, and like boiling oil splashed on snow, they emitted a piercing melting sound! Wisps of black smoke filled with malice were forcibly purified and annihilated by the chaotic light barrier! Yu Changsheng stood still, not even the hem of his clothes fluttering, his eyes calmly watching Yuan Shou, as if watching a clumsy performance.

"What?!" The pupils beneath the Abyss Hunter's mask constricted sharply, and he exclaimed in shock. The power of the Soul-Destroying Blood Scythe's divine soul curse had been blocked so easily?!

"It seems the 'hospitality' of the filthy abyss has honed your skills, you reptile." Yuan Shou's voice suddenly turned fierce, his killing intent boiling like a tangible substance. "Then take another strike from my scythe!"

He took a step forward, leaving afterimages in his wake, and his true form appeared like a ghost directly in front of Yu Changsheng! The Soul-Destroying Blood Scythe tore through space, carrying a shrill shriek powerful enough to shatter even the souls of living beings, its blood-red light surging a hundred feet! Countless vengeful spirits entwined and wailed on the scythe blade, coalescing into a dark red blood blade that eroded and fused the soul, slashing fiercely towards Yu Changsheng's head! This attack was even more ruthless and decisive than the one at the Xuanwu Remains, aiming for a fatal blow!

"Senior Brother Yu!" Wang Cheng and Chen Xueqing's hearts were in their throats.

Faced with this terrifying attack that seemed capable of cleaving through the netherworld, a cold glint finally flashed in Yu Changsheng's eyes. He neither dodged nor evaded, but instead clenched his right hand, his palm frantically gathering and compressing chaotic source energy!
The phantom of a sword instantly materialized in his hand!
The sword's blade is not a physical entity, but rather constructed from the purest chaotic energy. The hilt is a miniature projection of that chaotic imprint, slowly rotating and emanating a terrifying aura capable of reducing all things to nothingness. Along the blade flows a chaotic primordial light, originating from the same source as the Chaotic Annihilation Light, yet more condensed and restrained!

This sword is nameless; it was formed from the power of chaos, embodying the meaning of purification and annihilation. It is the first manifestation of my own Dao and Dharma after my chaotic Nirvana!
"break."

Yu Changsheng let out a soft shout, and the Chaos Origin Sword advanced instead of retreating, thrusting out with a single strike! There was no earth-shattering sword cry, only a strange feeling of completely "piercing" through space, energy, and even the laws!

The sword tip struck with absolute precision at the very center of the blade of the Soul-Destroying Blood Scythe, which was wreathed in endless bloody light from vengeful spirits!

Ding--!
A crystal-clear, metallic clang resounded throughout the entire wasteland!

Time seemed to freeze for a moment.

In the next instant, a circular ripple of chaos suddenly spread out from the point where the sword and scythe collided!

Click!
A clear crack suddenly appeared on the indestructible, dark red blade of the Soul-Destroying Blood Scythe, which was steeped in the souls of powerful beings! Then, the crack spread wildly like a spiderweb!

The countless vengeful ghosts that clung to the scythe blade instantly dissolved and evaporated upon contact with the spreading chaotic ripples, like bubbles thrown into aqua regia, before they could even utter a scream!
Yuan Shou's arms, gripping the scythe, trembled violently. The wide sleeves of his black robe instantly turned to ashes, revealing bulging veins and bulging muscles on his exposed arms, clearly indicating that he had endured an unimaginable force of recoil.

For the first time, his eyes, hidden behind the demon mask, revealed an expression of unbelievable horror!
"Impossible!" he roared, his body being shoved backward by the overwhelming chaotic power, his feet carving two deep furrows in the hard, iron-like wasteland rocks!

Yu Changsheng stood with his sword in hand, his robes fluttering. The Chaos Origin Sword pointed diagonally at the earth, its blade swirling with chaotic light. He calmly watched the Yuan Shou, who had been forced back, and his voice clearly echoed throughout the surrounding area:

"Your Blood Scythe is cracked." (End of Chapter)
