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

Within the Netherworld, the battle raged fiercely. Although the Myriad Laws Immortal Venerable's ten-thousand-foot-tall Dharma form was entangled by the chains of reincarnation, washed away by the Yellow Springs, and scorched by the light of judgment, sinking into the mire, its essence was ultimately a projection of laws at the Immortal Venerable level, with incomparably profound foundations.

He roared repeatedly, his body radiating immortal light like a million volcanoes erupting, constantly breaking the chains of new life, scattering the evil dragons of the Yellow Springs that rushed towards him, and even causing the beam of light shot from the Mirror of Judgment to flicker.

The entire underworld trembled violently under his struggle, and cracks kept appearing in the space at the boundary, which were then painstakingly mended by the stubborn order of reincarnation.

The area, stretching for a hundred miles, seemed to have transformed into a lone boat in a storm, poised to capsize at any moment.

The Xuan Yue shaman led his people in chanting ancient ritual texts, using the power of the ancestral shaman to stabilize the earth; the Netherworld Army united into battle formations, merging their malevolent energy into the barriers of the Netherworld; countless Yin gods performed their respective duties, channeling the chaotic energy of reincarnation caused by the great war.

As the Lord of the Underworld, Lin Xuan bore the greatest pressure. His face was as pale as paper, and his breathing was erratic, but his eyes were like ancient ice, fixed on the struggling Immortal Venerable's Dharma Image.

He was waiting, waiting for the perfect opportunity, a chance to seize power and change the world in one fell swoop!

This opportunity is not simply about accumulating power, but about finding the most fatal flaw in the core of the opponent's laws!

An opportunity for judgment that could trigger the entire order of reincarnation in the underworld and deliver its ultimate verdict!

While continuously suppressing and exhausting his opponent by mobilizing the power of the Netherworld, he pushed his divine sense to its limit, using the insight of the Mirror of Judgment and the feedback generated by the intense collision between his own Samsara Mark and the opponent's Immortal Laws to frantically analyze and deduce the law structure contained in the projection of the Myriad Laws Immortal Venerable.

Time passed slowly, and the tremors in the Netherworld grew increasingly violent, with some areas even beginning to collapse. Blood continuously trickled from the corner of Lin Xuan's mouth, clearly indicating that maintaining this high-intensity confrontation was placing an immense burden on him.

However, just as he sensed that the Netherworld was nearing its limit, and the Immortal Venerable of Myriad Laws was about to unleash even greater power to break free from his restraints—

Through the penetrating light of the Mirror of Judgment, combined with the secrets he had gleaned from the ancient ruins and his perception of the "disharmony" in the laws of the Celestial Court, Lin Xuan finally caught it!

Deep within the seemingly flawless and infinitely majestic core of the Immortal Laws of the Myriad Laws Immortal Venerable, lies an extremely subtle gray crack that is almost integrated with the entire law!

The crack wasn't caused by insufficient power, but by some fundamental flaw! Its aura resonated faintly with the sorrow and resentment left behind when the ancient cycle of reincarnation collapsed! This confirmed Lin Xuan's guess—the laws of the Celestial Court were built upon the foundation of destroying the ancient cycle of reincarnation, and thus inherently carried original sin and incompleteness! Like a castle built on quicksand, it appeared magnificent, but its foundation was flawed!

And this was the opportunity for judgment he had been waiting for!

"Found it!"

Lin Xuan's eyes flashed with a sharp light, like lightning streaking across the darkness! Without further hesitation, he concentrated all his remaining power, along with the will of the entire Netherworld and his unbreakable will to slay immortals, into the next... single word!

He took a step forward, his figure completely merging with the Underworld Palace, the Mirror of Judgment, and the entire cycle of reincarnation. He hovered in the air, looking down at the still struggling Celestial Venerable's Dharma form, like a supreme judge in charge of punishment, looking down at a prisoner awaiting trial!

He spoke, his voice no longer loud, but carrying an absolute majesty that seemed to originate from the very source of the universe, determining the fate of all things. Each word was like a heavy brand, slamming heavily onto the core of the Myriad Laws Immortal Venerable's Dharma form, striking the gray crack:

"Immortal Venerable of All Laws!" "Your immortal path, usurped by force, is illegitimate!" "Your order, born of blood, is entangled in sin!" "Your very existence... is... incomplete!"

The grand Daoist sound resonated throughout the entire Netherworld! The Yellow Springs roared in response, the chains of reincarnation clanged, and the Mirror of Judgment shone with unprecedented brilliance!

Lin Xuan's gaze was piercing, as if penetrating layers of celestial light, staring directly at the gray crack at the core of the law, and he uttered the final, undeniable statement—

The cycle of rebirth and judgment!

"In the name of the Lord of Reincarnation, I hereby declare your judgment!" "Your path is flawed, your foundation weak, unworthy of the position of Immortal Venerable!" "You shall be cast into Reincarnation to rebuild your foundation. After countless lifetimes, we shall discuss the path to immortality again!"

"Imperial Decree: Reincarnation...and Guidance!"

boom!!!!!!

These words seemed to have triggered some supreme rule in the dark!

The order of reincarnation in the underworld, which had been suppressed and eroded by the Immortal Venerable of Ten Thousand Laws, suddenly erupted as if it had been infused with supreme power!

The chains of reincarnation binding his Dharma form instantly transformed into countless entrances to reincarnation channels emanating chaotic energy, unleashing a terrifying suction force. They were no longer binding, but rather... guiding! They were forcibly pulling his Dharma form into different cycles of reincarnation!

The Xuanhuang Yellow Spring surged into the sky, transforming into a bridge spanning heaven and earth. At the end of the bridge was the entrance to the passage of the Six Paths of Reincarnation, its light shining brightly and slowly opening! In particular, the Hell Path and the Hungry Ghost Path, representing punishment and redemption, exuded a terrifying devouring power!

The Mirror of Judgment condensed all the clear light into a massive spear of judgment, imbued with the will of "judgment" and "execution," ignoring all defenses and fiercely stabbing towards the gray crack at the core of the Myriad Laws Immortal Venerable's Dharma Image!

"No--!!!"

The Immortal Venerable of Myriad Laws roared in utter shock and fury! He felt that the very foundation of his Dharma form was being shaken by that strange word of judgment! The "original sin" crack that he had considered insignificant and had long been concealed by the power of the Celestial Court had now become the breakthrough point for the opponent's attack! The power of reincarnation was not a simple attraction of energy, but rather it was directly acting on his "Dao," forcibly forcing the "Dao of the Immortal Venerable of Myriad Laws" represented by his projection into reincarnation for "reshaping"!

This is a conceptual denial and judgment! It is a judgment of the Great Dao that is more fundamental and more terrifying than the Celestial Court's "Heavenly Laws"!

"I am an immortal, inviolable by all laws! How dare you, a heretic demon, judge me?!" He frantically burned the source of his projection, trying to resist the omnipresent power of reincarnation and to block the spear of judgment piercing his core!

However, in the Netherworld, his home ground, under the ultimate judgment launched by Lin Xuan with all his power, especially after his most fatal "Dao Flaw" was exposed, his resistance seemed so futile!

The spear of judgment pierced precisely into the gray crack of the law!

"Snap—!"

A crisp sound, like glass shattering, emanated from the core of the Dharma image!

The ten-thousand-foot-tall Dharma form suddenly froze, and the celestial laws flowing around it instantly became chaotic and dim. Countless fine cracks spread rapidly throughout its body like a spider web, centered on the core!

"I... am not reconciled... Heavenly Emperor... save me..."

Before the fearful and unwilling thoughts of the Immortal Venerable of Myriad Laws could be fully transmitted, his enormous Dharma form collapsed with a bang under the guiding power of countless reincarnation channels!

It wasn't an energy explosion, but a complete collapse of the law structure! It turned into countless fragments, which were greedily devoured and pulled by those reincarnation channels, and thrown into different reincarnation phantoms, beginning the pronounced "rebirth through countless reincarnations"!

The Celestial Venerable's Dharma Image... has fallen!

No, to be more precise, it was this projection that Lin Xuan, in the name of the Lord of Reincarnation, judged, disintegrated, and cast into Reincarnation!

Within the Netherworld, the terrifying, world-destroying pressure vanished abruptly. Only shattered mountains and rivers remained, along with the ceaselessly rushing Yellow Springs and the high-hanging Mirror of Judgment, its radiance gradually fading.

All the creatures of the underworld stared blankly at this scene, as if they could not believe their eyes.

The Lord... the Sovereign... he... he judged the Dharma form of a Celestial Venerable?! And cast it into the cycle of reincarnation?!

Lin Xuan hovered in the air, his aura extremely weak, his body swaying precariously, yet his eyes shone like stars tempered by time, bright and majestic. He gazed at the spot where the Immortal Venerable's Dharma form had vanished, sensing the Netherworld's aura—more stable and even subtly expanding—as it had absorbed this fragment of the Immortal Venerable's laws. Slowly and firmly, he uttered a single sentence:

"Even immortals are not immortal." "Those who violate my cycle of reincarnation... must be judged!" "This is the rule!"
