Chapter 1026 The Shadow of Nothingness

“Xiao Yu, your talent is indeed monstrous. You were able to cultivate to the level of a third-step Eternal Ancestral God in just a few hundred thousand epochs, and you even managed to force me to this point. I can no longer hold back.” Hei Yanwu looked at Xiao Yu, a hint of admiration flashing in her eyes. “I still can’t quite master this next move. If I’m careless, I’ll die.”

Black Flame Dance gained the favor of the God of Destruction, who bestowed upon him a wisp of void power.

"Please," Xiao Yu said cautiously, but without fear, because he still had his most powerful technique to use.

Once unleashed, even if Black Flame Dance's true form were here, without the suppression of the Eternal Land, Xiao Yu was confident he could suppress his opponent.

"Shadow of Nothingness!" The twelve spears, formed from Black Flame Dance's full power, hummed and vibrated, transforming into streams of dark silver energy.

Twelve terrifying energy streams converged and condensed into a phantom spear, which appeared and disappeared intermittently, its form constantly changing.

One moment it takes the form of a spear, and the next it transforms into a strange, ferocious beast, opening its massive maw to devour the surrounding energy and even the surrounding spacetime.

"This is... nothingness?" Xiao Yu's expression changed. He could feel that the power emanating from the spear was strange and violent, like a strange beast that was difficult to tame.

The aura emanating from the spear was also eerie, giving one a sense of emptiness emanating from the soul, and containing the intention to devour all tangible things.

The eerie aura can not only corrupt living beings, but also erode the world, all energy, and spacetime.

"That's terrifying!" Xiao Yu exclaimed in horror.

The surrounding energy flow was slowly fading, and even the endless spacetime was weakening, gradually becoming nothingness.

"This is not the complete power of nothingness." Xiao Yu had previously witnessed the nothingness outside the Hengyuan Heavenly Realm, and the complete nothingness was far more terrifying than this.

Complete nothingness, capable of swallowing even sight.

Moreover, its power is far more terrifying than that of a spear.

If we consider the void outside the Hengyuan Heavenly Realm as a colossal beast that devours the heavens, then the spear is an incredibly tiny microorganism; the two are worlds apart.

Nevertheless, Xiao Yu still dared not be careless.

“Complete nothingness is beyond my control, but after a long period of studying nothingness, I have finally gained some insights and grasped some of its mysteries. At least I can mobilize a trace of its power,” Black Flame Dance said. Complete nothingness is beyond his control.

He couldn't even perfectly control a trace of power reflected in the void.

The power of nothingness is too violent and too difficult to control. If not handled properly, it may not only fail to kill the enemy but also harm oneself.

"call!"

The moment the ethereal spear materialized, it silently approached Xiao Yu.

The Void Spear was so fast that even the void of the Eternal Origin Heaven Realm couldn't react in time. Moreover, the Void Spear was assimilating everything around it, and the closer one got to the spear, the more severe the assimilation became.

"Soul-Destroying Battle Technique".

Xiao Yu could see the ethereal spear slicing through the void, leaving behind a trace of nothingness. Instantly, he unleashed all his trump cards, his mental will at the level of a sixth-step Eternal Ancestral God, under the manipulation of his battle techniques, unleashing terrifying power and crushing everything in his path.

Xiao Yu's Soul-Destroying Battle Technique struck first despite being behind, instantly overwhelming Hei Yanwu's clone.

"This……"

Black Flame Dance's soul sensed terrifying power. His clones vanished silently, like ice and snow meeting the blazing sun. Even the mark on this illusory image of the world's origin vanished.

"call!"

After the Black Flame Dance dissipated, the tip of the Void Spear approached Xiao Yu's black robe, but the Black Flame Dance had already vanished, and the power of the Black Flame Dance on the Void Spear was also rapidly dissipating.

Only a small section of the tip of the illusory spear remained.

That point was a wisp of power transformed from the void reflected by Hei Yanwu's comprehension, a void shadow like the tip of a spear.

Even without the power of the Black Flame Dance sustaining it, the spear's edge still pierced through the protective energy layer in an instant.

Xiao Yu's proudest defensive measures—his protective energy layer and his black robe, which possessed many characteristics such as indestructibility and eternal life—were shattered as easily as a bubble under the seemingly slow and soft attack of the spear light!
The two forces are not even in the same dimension.

Even Xiao Yu's outer skin could not withstand the corrosive force of the spear's edge.

"This spear light is undefendable; even a sixth-step Eternal Ancestral God's mental will cannot suppress it." Xiao Yu attempted to use the Soul Annihilation Battle Technique to stop the spear light.

But that spear light could even devour the power of the mind and will.

The spear's edge pierced through billions of layers of skin and appeared inside Xiao Yu's body. A huge hole appeared in his skin. This huge hole was smaller than a needle tip relative to Xiao Yu's towering body, but it could not be repaired.

Moreover, the more it recovers, the bigger the hole becomes.

"This void is terrifying. Even a wisp of projection is enough to easily kill the main battle avatar of a fourth-step Eternal Ancestral God." Xiao Yu was not very worried.

The void may be terrifying, but this is nothing more than a projection.

"If I could also master the void, perhaps I could leave the Hengyuan Heaven Realm." Xiao Yu had already witnessed the terrifying power of this wisp of void shadow and had the intention to try to comprehend it.

Moreover, such an opportunity is extremely rare.

After all, the complete void is too terrifying, and the Void Shadow that Black Flame Dance cast was only a trace of void power that he had drawn upon by using some of the mysteries of void. The power of void was extremely weak.

Such an opportunity was too rare for Xiao Yu to give up.

"The Shadow of Nothingness is not a complete nothingness after all; it still has some weaknesses." Xiao Yu had been observing the Shadow of Nothingness and had gained some insights.

He discovered that the Void Shadow moved at varying speeds as it passed through different defensive mechanisms.

“The denser and more indestructible the material energy, the more difficult it is for the Void Shadow to devour it,” Xiao Yu thought to himself. “Moreover, the Void Shadow’s ability to devour and assimilate is far inferior to that of the true Void.”

The devouring and assimilation ability of the Void Shadow is far less than one ten-millionth of that of the true Void.

"Finally, it's stopped going deeper." Xiao Yu sensed that the point of spear light deep within his body had stopped penetrating and was no longer maintaining its spear tip shape.

It is like a point of violent energy, constantly transforming into various forms.

"Split!" With a thought, Xiao Yu unleashed a series of sword lights that flashed across the void passage through which the Void Shadow had pierced him, the endless, condensed sword light slashing at the void.

The ethereal shadow was devouring and assimilating the sword light, but the assimilation speed was very slow, ten thousand times slower than the assimilation of the black robe.

"It works." Xiao Yu was overjoyed; his idea was correct.

The dense energy of the blade sliced ​​the ethereal shadows throughout the body into pieces.

"Banned!"

Xiao Yu divided all the illusory shadows, along with their assimilated parts, into one hundred portions and sealed them in one hundred thumb-sized prisons. Each thumb-sized prison contained one-thousandth of Xiao Yu's energy reserves.

The Void Shadow was split again, its power dispersed, and the speed of devouring and assimilation slowed down countless times once more.

The prison that sealed the Void Shadow was even denser and more indestructible than the blade's light. The endless, dense prison emitted a purplish-gold light. "At this rate of devouring and assimilation, the prison can last for a very long time. Even if the power of the Void grows stronger with devouring and assimilation, it can still last for millions of epochs," Xiao Yu made an accurate judgment.

Xiao Yu also has clones traveling through various timelines. In the future timeline, although he cannot see the Void Shadow, he can make accurate judgments through some traces.

“Even if this void is sealed, it is still very dangerous.” Xiao Yu looked at the hundred purple-gold multidimensional structure prisons in his hand. He could sense a colorless and formless shadow inside the prisons, which was very violent.

……

Hengyuan Heaven is an unknown land shrouded in black mist.

Inside a palace exuding an evil aura, a massive four-sided flying beast looked away from the enormous illusory sphere that had appeared before it, gazing into the distance.

His gaze seemed to pierce through endless time and space.

"This Xiao Yu is truly remarkable. He is only at the limit of the third step of the Eternal Ancestral God, but his mental will is at least at the level of the fifth step of the Eternal Ancestral God."

The four flying birds were none other than the true form of Black Flame Dance.

The place where he stood was the shadow of the Black King.

"Fortunately, the Black King's Shadow has a strong suppressive effect on the mind and will." Black Flame Dance sighed.

After Xiao Yu's Soul-Destroying Battle Technique killed Black Flame Dance's clone, some of its corrosive and corrupting power was transmitted to the Black King's Shadow Territory along the causal lines.

However, this power was too weak. It was crushed and dissipated as soon as it entered the Black King's Shadow.

The lands of the Eternal Land, the Shadow of the Black King, and the Ancestral Sect of the Source God, while all suppressing external forces, each has its own strengths.

The Eternal Land excels at suppressing strength, and also at suppressing any burst of power.

Black King's Shadow is particularly adept at suppressing the power of the soul.

The Source God Ancestral Cult is more adept at suppressing and restricting movement abilities.

"This Xiao Yu is truly extraordinary. He was born only a few hundred thousand epochs ago, yet his strength has already surpassed mine." Hei Yanwu was very envious. Although his talent was also good, it took him trillions of epochs to cultivate to the level of a third-step Eternal Ancestral God.

It took hundreds of billions of eons to go from the third step of the Eternal Ancestral God to the fourth step of the Eternal Ancestral God.

Even so, his talent was among the best in the Black King's Shadow, which is why the God of Destruction granted him the qualification to comprehend nothingness.

"We must report Xiao Yu's matter to the Supreme God immediately," Hei Yanwu thought.

The God of Destruction once ordered that Black Flame Dance, while cultivating in the Abyss of Destruction, should also keep an eye on the talents of the reserve members of the Eternal Land.

"call!"

With a thought, Hei Yanwu caused the purple-gold box beneath the void sphere to transform into chains, binding and sealing the void sphere. The void sphere, bound by the purple-gold chains, then transformed back into the purple-gold box and landed on the stone table.

Black Flame Dance put away the purple-gold box, which was his most precious treasure, bestowed by the God of Destruction. Moreover, he only had the right to comprehend it, not all of it.

He could only comprehend the purple-gold box within the Shadow of the Black King; he could not take it out of the Shadow of the Black King.

Black Flame Dance transformed into a wisp of black mist, weaving through the endless black fog. The oppressive force within the Shadow of the Black King was immense, no less than that of the Eternal Land.

However, as a fourth-step Eternal Ancestral God, Hei Yanwu's speed of travel is extremely fast, no less than teleportation.

In the blink of an eye, Hei Yanwu appeared in front of a huge palace formed by black mist, and a patch of black mist gathered to form the true forms of four flying birds.

"Lord God," Black Flame Dance said respectfully.

"call!"

The palace gate, formed by black mist, suddenly dissipated into the mist, and the gate opened instantly, revealing the scene inside the palace.

The massive palace was suspended in mid-air, shrouded in billowing black mist. Terrifying power was brewing and accumulating within the mist. Below, on the black ground, lay a colossal throne, forged from an unknown metal, radiating a rich purplish-gold light and exuding an incredibly terrifying aura.

The intense purple-gold light made it impossible for Hei Yanwu to look directly at it.

"Wu, come in."

A thunderous sound resounded deep within Black Flame Dance's soul, a sound containing an inviolable majesty.

The endless black mist in the air above the palace suddenly gathered and transformed into a majestic figure, which landed on the purple-gold throne, instantly obscuring the purple-gold light emanating from the throne.

The towering figure of black mist exuded a terrifying aura of destruction.

"Yes, God of Destruction." Black Flame Dance replied with utmost respect, bowing his head as he stepped into the palace.

"What's the matter?"

The infinitely majestic voice resounded directly in Hei Yanwu's heart.

"Lord God, you once instructed me to keep an eye on the reserve members of the Eternal Land. I just encountered a genius with monstrous talent in the Abyss of Destruction," Black Flame Dance said respectfully.

The towering figure looked down calmly, and even a single glance from him sent terrifying pressure through Hei Yanwu. Hei Yanwu felt as if she were being watched by a terrifying abyss.

That destruction, so real, was even purer than the Abyss of Destruction.

Hei Yanwu dared not be presumptuous and quickly continued, "This genius Xiao Yu is a cultivator of the Enlightenment lineage. He was born no more than two hundred thousand years ago, yet he has already cultivated to the limit level of the third step of the Eternal Ancestral God, and his mental will has even surpassed the level of the fifth step of the Eternal Ancestral God."

"Oh?"

On the purple-gold throne, the majestic figure also showed a hint of interest. He gazed into the distance, his gaze piercing through endless time and space, and saw the white-haired man in the Abyss of Destruction.

"Xiao Yu? His mental will is not at the fifth-step Eternal Ancestral God level, but at the sixth-step Eternal Ancestral God level, and he has already reached the limit of the sixth-step Eternal Ancestral God." The towering figure had seen through everything about the white-haired man. "He is indeed very talented."

"The limit of the Six-Step Eternal Ancestral God?" Black Flame Dance exclaimed in disbelief. "How is this possible? How could such a monster exist?"

"Black Flame Dance, you are quite good too. In three hundred billion epochs, you have already comprehended some of the mysteries of nothingness." The towering figure looked down at the figure below, with a hint of admiration in his eyes. "However, Xiao Yu's ambition is really not small. He actually wants to comprehend nothingness now."

"Moreover, he actually managed to restrain this ethereal shadow. If one can comprehend its mysteries through the ethereal shadow and progress step by step, it might actually be a good path of cultivation," the towering figure laughed.

Although the God of Destruction did not comprehend the void, in terms of understanding the void, no one in the entire Hengyuan Heaven Realm could match him.

"What a fine little fellow." The more the God of Destruction looked at Xiao Yu, the more he liked him, and he even felt a slight fondness for his talent.

pity.

"destroy."

A telepathic message traveled through endless time and space, resonating within the heart of the God of Destruction.

"Space-Time?" The God of Destruction gazed at the distant Eternal Land, where he could see the towering figure of the Eternal Temple. He transmitted his thoughts, "What? Your Eternal Land occupies nearly half of the Hengyuan Heavenly Realm's territory. Do you even dare to compete with me for a single genius?" (End of Chapter)
