Projection of the Heavens: I prove my immortality through slaughter.

Inside the Xuanzun Hall, Lin Xuan slowly opened his eyes. The trace of chaotic birth and death that remained in his eyes due to his comprehension of the inner realm divine power quickly disappeared, returning to a deep, ancient well. The harmonious aura around him was even more concentrated than before his seclusion, as if a universe about to awaken was contained within him.

His divine sense spread out like mercury, instantly covering the entire Kunwu Star and extending towards the battlefield at the edge of the star field.

The real-world battle situation was clearly reflected in his perception.

During his seclusion to comprehend the primordial universe, the extraterrestrial demon army, now without the command of the Demon Lord, had fallen into utter chaos and defeat. Although their numbers remained vast, they were leaderless, fighting amongst themselves, even killing each other to seize the path to the rift.

On the other side, the morale of the allied forces was soaring!

Under the command of the leaders of various forces, relying on the remaining power of the Zhou Tian Star Array (although the array was not fully repaired, it could still provide protection and some enhancement), and the supreme prestige brought by Lin Xuan's sword slaying of the Demon Lord, the allied cultivators formed a series of spearhead battle formations, like combs, repeatedly combing and strangling the scattered demon horde.

In the starry sky, the brilliance of magic burst forth like festive fireworks, while shattered demonic bodies mingled with the remnants of starships, forming floating debris belts. The cheers of victory mingled with the dying wails of the demons, composing the final chapter of the war.

However, the enormous spatial rift stretching across the edge of the star field still resembled a wound constantly oozing pus and blood, emanating an unsettling aura of chaos. Scattered demonic creatures continued to struggle free from it, and the rift itself, if left unaddressed, would ultimately become a permanent threat to the Xuan Tian Star Field.

It's time to put a complete end to this sudden and devastating disaster.

Lin Xuan's figure disappeared from the Xuanzun Hall, and the next moment, he appeared at the forefront of the Star Domain Battlefield, outside the gap in the Zhou Tian Star Array that had not yet been fully repaired.

He didn't display any overwhelming aura; he simply hovered there quietly. But the moment he appeared, the entire noisy battlefield seemed to be silenced.

All the allied cultivators, regardless of their location or what they were doing, sensed something and stopped what they were doing, casting their fervent and awe-inspiring gazes at the purple-gold figure.

"It's the Alliance Leader!" "The Mystic Lord has emerged from seclusion!" "Welcome, Alliance Leader!"

The deafening cheers erupted once again, even more enthusiastic than before, filled with the excitement of surviving a catastrophe and the worship of the absolute powerhouse.

Lin Xuan's gaze calmly swept across the battlefield, and he nodded slightly. Then, his voice clearly reached the ears of every allied cultivator:

"You have fought bravely, my lords. You have worked hard." "Now, follow me... to wipe out the remaining enemies and seal the rift!"

There was no grand and impassioned mobilization, only a plain but unquestionable order.

"We humbly obey the Alliance Leader's decree!"

The allied cultivators responded in unison, their voices shattering the remaining demonic energy in the starry sky! Their morale soared to its peak, and following closely behind Lin Xuan, they launched a final, devastating all-out attack on the last remaining groups of Heavenly Demons who were putting up a stubborn resistance!

Lin Xuan did not personally deal with the scattered soldiers. His target was the spatial rift.

He took a step forward, and with a few flashes, he traversed an endless distance, arriving before the enormous rift that was still slowly writhing and exuding an ominous aura.

Experiencing it up close allows one to truly appreciate the eeriness and danger of this rift. It seems to connect to a dimension filled with endless malice and chaos; merely gazing at it is enough to make an ordinary cultivator lose their composure.

Around the rift, some powerful demon generals tried to organize a resistance, but after Lin Xuan's indifferent gaze swept over them, these demon generals were crushed as if by an invisible mountain, instantly shattering into demonic energy, and their core essence was completely erased by an invisible sense of annihilation.

After clearing away the troublesome fish, Lin Xuan stared at the crack and slowly raised his hands.

He did not use his newly comprehended "Inner Realm Divine Power" or "Singularity Power," as those were his important trump cards, not to be easily revealed. The remaining power of the Zhou Tian Star Array, combined with his own cultivation at the fourth level of the Golden Core stage, was sufficient to deal with this rift.

"Stellar power converges, laws form the lock!"

He drew upon the remaining stellar power of the main star beneath his feet and throughout the entire grand formation. Vast silver light descended from the starry sky, gathering in his palm and transforming into countless silver chains composed of pure stellar laws!

These chains are not physical entities, yet they are stronger than any divine metal, flowing with the Daoist principles of order and eternity, the nemesis of chaos and destruction.

"go!"

With a wave of his arm, Lin Xuan unleashed countless star chains, like giant silver pythons with life, roaring as they shot toward the spatial rift! They coiled around the rift's twisted edges, like stitches mending a wound, forcibly pulling and closing the torn cosmic membrane!

"Hiss hiss hiss—!"

The remaining demonic energy and chaotic laws within the rift resisted fiercely, colliding with the star chains and emitting a piercing sound of annihilation. The entire rift twisted and trembled violently, like a trapped beast unwilling to be sealed, making its final struggle.

Even from the depths of the rift, several terrifying roars, filled with violence and resentment, echoed from the other powerful Heavenly Demon Lords! They seemed to be trying to take the opportunity to break through the seal.

"snort!"

Lin Xuan snorted coldly, and his fourth-stage Golden Core began to circulate rapidly, injecting even more powerful magical energy into the Star Chains. At the same time, he mobilized a trace of the "Cosmic Blessing" power from the primordial universe, not for attack, but to solidify and amplify his control over and mastery of the laws of the stars!

In an instant, the star chains shone brightly, and the order and Dao principles on them became even more solid and unshakable! The power to pull and stitch them together surged!

"seal up!"

With a shout that sounded like a decree of the Great Dao, the massive spatial rift spanning tens of thousands of miles was finally forcibly pulled shut by countless star chains!

The last trace of demonic energy was squeezed and purified, and the last bit of chaotic fluctuations were smoothed out.

The starry sky returned to its original tranquility and depth, as if the rift that brought endless calamity had never existed.

Only the remaining traces of the battlefield and the deafening cheers of the allied cultivators, who had survived the ordeal, proved the fierce battle that had just taken place, a battle that determined the survival of the star field.

"Long live the Alliance Leader!" "The Supreme Mystic is unparalleled!"

Countless cultivators, with tears in their eyes, bowed and worshipped in Lin Xuan's direction. After this battle, Lin Xuan's prestige and authority in the Xuan Tian Star Region were as unshakeable as the sun at its zenith.

Lin Xuan stood in the void, looking down at the jubilant sea of ​​stars, his eyes still calm.

The Heavenly Demon was defeated, and the rift was sealed.

The troubles of the real world have temporarily come to an end.
