Chapter 794: Chapter 794

Deep within the Abyssal Rift, a faint ripple echoed through the endless void. The message came in broken fragments.

"Li Pin... you've gone too deep into the Abyssal Rift. This isn't somewhere you should be..."

Li Pin replied calmly, "Not deep enough."

His steps never wavered.

By now, he had reached depths where even most Heavenly Emperors would hesitate to set foot. The further he descended into the Abyssal Rift, the more disconnected he became from the universe's laws. With each step, the techniques Li Pin had forged through his mastery of those laws grew weaker.

When he first entered the Abyssal Rift, his fully unleashed Quantum Sword Intent could wreak havoc across tens of thousands, sometimes even over a hundred thousand meters. And that was with him holding back, careful not to trigger the Eternal Oblivion Force.

But the deeper he ventured, the weaker the influence of matter, energy, and laws became.

It was like hurling a peerless swordmaster, one blessed with unmatched strength, into outer space. No matter how exquisite their technique, it would be useless there.

Worse still, as the descent reached its extreme, one would begin to forget time, forget space, and even the very reason for venturing into this place.

Like someone wandering through a blank, empty void for too long, their gaze would lose focus, thoughts would stall, and eventually... that stagnation would continue until the mind no longer stirred, until they were completely lost.

Sasha's voice echoed once more, "Li Pin... you can't go any further... I've already—"

But this time, it sounded even farther away.

"I've already... lost my connection to the Ocean of Time... You're not a Supreme being. Your point of reference, your own self, is far too small... If you keep going, you might never find your way back. You'll be lost in the void forever."

There was a hint of urgency in Sasha's voice. But Li Pin never stopped. "Just a bit more... just a little more!"

He pressed on, moving forward!

With each step, matter, energy, time, and space, even the spiritual ripples he emitted from his inner spirit, grew fainter.

Earlier, it was like walking across a vast, empty plain with no life and no landmarks. Now, it was as if even his sight was being stripped away.

In such a state, Sasha's warning wasn't an exaggeration. He might truly lose his way and never return.

Yet in this very environment, Li Pin sensed the essence of the Oblivion World within the Primordial Abyss True Demon Form.

It was the void that devours all—the eternal, unyielding nothingness.

In that void, everything, consciousness, inner spirit, even matter, energy, time, and space, would be swallowed, lost, and never escape.

The one to counterbalance matter, energy, time, and space would be the Infinite Star Abyss Body.

Li Pin had already completed the mental and spiritual framework of the Oblivion World within the Primordial Abyss True Demon Form. Through matter, energy, and the remaining fundamentals, he constructed the Infinite Star Abyss Body, turning himself into a Chaotic Void that could both devour and anchor everything.

Now, by immersing himself in this near-Chaotic Void, he achieved what only top-tier Tyrants could. He merged his Supreme Secret Arts with his peak combat techniques.

Li Pin felt the Chaotic Void that tried to swallow him whole and took one more step forward. "Just a little more..."

But he couldn't go further.

Like a lifeform drifting in space, no matter how he mimicked the motion of stepping forward, he remained in place, unable to move even an inch.

He had nearly left the Abyssal Rift entirely and entered the Chaotic Void beyond.

He pushed forward yet could no longer advance.

He vaguely sensed Sasha's spiritual ripple. "Li Pin..."

But the moment it surfaced, it was consumed by the Chaotic Void.

There was no medium to carry it. No matter, no energy, no time, no space. Spiritual ripples, even inner spirit waves, had been reduced to the faintest flicker.

Li Pin pondered, Is this... the limit?

His thoughts moved sluggishly, like someone prone to zoning out. One moment, he remembered what he was trying to do, the next, his mind was completely blank.

That blankness lingered longer and longer. His thoughts slowed further and further.

He said sincerely, "So this... is really the limit... then..."

Time for the most crucial verification.

It was also the true reason he had dared to plunge into the Abyssal Rift, venturing all the way into the Chaotic Void.

In the next instant, a dazzling brilliance burst from deep within his inner spirit, piercing through the fog.

Like a sudden flash breaking through endless darkness. Like a dense forest mist swept away. Like someone who had lost their sight—and all sensation—suddenly opening their eyes, seeing the world again with perfect clarity.

Wherever the light reached, a force born from the very essence of "existence" itself endlessly extended into the surroundings.

Within this brilliance, matter and energy wove together in constant transformation. Even spaces too fragile to truly take shape began to form.

Yet, those spaces collapsed after only a brief moment, unable to sustain themselves. Despite that, the remnants of their collapse proved that the concept of "space" had once taken root in this region.

Though the space that could contain them had vanished, the concepts of matter and energy pierced through the chaotic void with clarity, becoming undeniably real within Li Pin's perception.

And more than that... Li Pin had perfect control over this matter and energy.

As if... this matter and energy had always been part of him.

No! It's not as if! That light came from his Great Dao Radiance, evolved with his Dao Realm as its core. Since matter and energy were born from that very radiance, they were nothing different from being part of himself.

"I knew it," Li Pin murmured.

From the moment he first encountered the Abyssal Rifts, he had a feeling that his Great Dao Radiance could carve out the concept of "existence" from within nothingness. But such an idea had always seemed too fantastical. He needed to experience it firsthand to verify his assumption.

Now, with the cultivation of the Primordial Abyss True Demon Form, he had descended straight to the deepest point of the Abyssal Rift.

In truth, he had already crossed beyond the Rift, into the true Void of Chaos, extending his Great Dao Radiance into its depths. That sensation of touching existence within "void" rose vividly before him, undeniable and real.

He could now truly exist within the Abyssal Rift, and even within the Chaotic Void itself, accomplishing what even Supremes and Highlords had failed to do.

Li Pin thought, so... my theory was right after all. The essence of the Dao Realm truly surpasses the power of both Supremes and Highlords.

"The Void Emperor could see that because he was a being of Void. From the void, one can better perceive the reality of the Dao. In contrast, the Supremes and Highlords, as beings of Existence, are less attuned to it...."

Just then, Li Pin sensed something with his keen perception.

The Great Dao Radiance he had extended was reaching its limit. Under the erosion of the Chaotic Void, it had begun to dim, as though it could no longer hold on.

Sensing the change in his Great Dao Radiance, Li Pin murmured, "My Dao Realm is still too weak."

The Great Dao Radiance originated from himself, a projection of his own strength. In his current state, it simply wasn't enough to withstand the Void of Chaos.

What he needed was a vessel, something that could carry him through the chaos.

Li Pin turned to look behind him. That was where the Abyssal Rift lay—or more precisely, the universe he had come from.

He hadn't completely left that universe yet. Or maybe... he was simply too small, and the universe too vast, for him to see it clearly.

But if his sense of direction was right, then that "vessel" was a universe itself. A boundless world, floating eternally through the Chaotic Void—just like the one he had once lived in.

That thought... reminded Li Pin of his ascension to Astral God.

Back then, when he became an Astral God, he had felt as though he'd merged with the Astral World, like a spaceship sailing across it.

Li Pin frowned. "How can it be so similar?" This update ıs available on NoveI~Fire.net

The path of the Astral God felt like a vastly simplified version of the path he was now walking. Or perhaps... it had been a prerequisite.

"No... the path of the Astral God came from the era when the Ancient Astral World shattered. So is it possible... that during the Ancient Astral World era, someone had once tried to walk the same path I now tread, but failed for reasons unknown?"

Li Pin thought of the ruined Astral World and the countless drifting fragments scattered within it.

Could these be... the remains left behind by that ancient being, or beings of the Astral World who failed in their journey?

At this moment, Li Pin faintly felt he had glimpsed the truth behind the path of the Astral God and the mystery behind the collapse of the Ancient Astral World.

But sensing the increasing strain on his Great Dao Radiance, he drew back his focus.

Now's not the time to think about the truth behind the Astral World's collapse. My current Great Dao Radiance... or rather, my Dao Realm, still isn't strong enough to support me for long in the Void of Chaos.

At the very least... I need to fully master time and space, comprehend reincarnation, and complete the 'birthing' of life within chaos before I can truly traverse the Chaotic Void.

With that thought, he engraved every insight and perception of the Void of Chaos deep into his inner spirit.

That faint figure deep in his inner spirit, what could be considered his True Spirit, grew even stronger.

Primordial Abyss True Demon Form had now been perfected. By directly observing the end of the Abyssal Rifts and touching the Chaotic Void, he had swiftly advanced his Primordial Abyss True Demon Form from major mastery to perfection.

Moreover, within his body, it now seemed as though a miniature Oblivion World had formed. Countless matter and energy poured into it, vanishing like stones sinking into the sea.

The Infinite Star Abyss Body, too, had been perfected.

Li Pin observed the changes within himself. "This property... already rivals a Highlord's body."

At this moment, he had become immune to all attacks made of matter and energy. As long as this miniature Oblivion World didn't collapse, no attack in material or energy form could harm him in the slightest.

He cast one final deep glance at the Chaotic Void. Then, he turned around. The Grand Oblivion Art was unleashed, paving a path through the void. He moved decisively toward the outer edge of the Abyssal Rift.

This journey into the Chaotic Void had aided Li Pin in completely mastering the Primordial Abyss True Demon Form, the Grand Oblivion Art, and the Infinite Star Abyss Body.

All that was left to do was to retrieve the two Supreme Divine Weapons that Divine Martial Emperor had helped him acquire, pay a visit to the Skyblaze Tribe, and complete the Ruoxi Sword.

At the Ten Thousand Tribes Dominion War, he would stand in his strongest form and compete for the throne of supreme ruler of the universe.
