Chapter 66: The Nullifying Leaf
The upward whip of the green willow branch made no sound, yet it bent the crimson air of the plateau as though striking the surface of a taut drum.Yan Wushang felt the marrow inside his arms turn to ice. The kinetic shockwave he had unleashed—a strike heavy enough to pulverize an iron gate—had not vanished; it had merely been borrowed. As the slender green wood whipped across the flat of his primordial bone greatsword, every ounce of that deflected momentum returned in reverse, channeled with the terrifying clarity of unwritten celestial law.Snap.The petrified bone blade did not shatter, but the three structural flaws Lu Chen had decoded along its central marrow-groove flared with blinding emerald luminescence. A vibration high enough to shatter quartz shot straight through the hilt, exploding through Yan Wushang’s forearms.The skin across Yan Wushang’s wrists tore open in concentric rings. His grip failed, and the colossal bone
Chapter 65: The Rusted Monolith of Bone
The sky over the Valley of Fallen Gods did not merely darken; it tore open like bruised flesh.With three of the four sovereign pillars dismantled, the ancient sacrificial array had lost its equilibrium. Above the petrified skull of the dead god, the firmament warped into an inverted funnel of pitch-black lightning and violently spinning spatial rifts. Chunks of shattered mountain floated upward into the void, caught in the violent updraft of escaping celestial Qi.On the eastern terrace, the surviving Golden Dragon Guards had already abandoned Prince Jin Wuji’s crippled body, fleeing southward along the crumbling ridges in a frantic scramble for the trial ground’s outer boundaries.Kuang Yan leaned heavily on his iron spear, watching the earth crack beneath their boots. A thirty-foot trench split the stone three paces from where he stood, exposing glowing subterranean magma mixed with rotting divine blood."The whole valley is going down, Ch
Chapter 64: The Pen Beneath the Brow
The chime of the ancient blade did not travel through the air; it rang directly within the marrow.Across the eastern plateau, every blade, spearhead, and metal clasp began to vibrate in sympathetic resonance. Chu Qingxuan’s autumn-water sword wept with a high, clear note within its scabbard, while Kuang Yan’s heavy iron spear hummed like an awakened hive. The Golden Dragon Guards staggered backward, clutching their halberds as the polearms grew searingly cold, their spirit-veins refusing to circulate Qi through weapon metal that suddenly bowed toward the chasm.Inside the opened Cranium Vault beneath the petrified brow, the golden pillar of starlight parted like a curtain of liquid silk.There, thrust deep into the crystalline core of the fallen sovereign’s spiritual sea, stood an ancient, straight-bladed sword.It was neither forged of polished gold nor refined meteorite steel. It was long, narrow, and pitted with the black rust of ten thou
Chapter 63: The Vault Beneath the Brow
The eastern sky did not burn red; it burned in blinding, imperial gold.As Lu Chen, Kuang Yan, and Chu Qingxuan traversed the jagged spine of the central ridge, the ground beneath their boots trembled with rhythmic, tectonic violence. With the western and southern pillars shattered, the entire valley was tilted off its axis. The crimson mist was being sucked violently eastward, drawn into a colossal golden vortex that pierced the cloud cover above the petrified skull of the fallen sovereign.The skull was the size of a mountain.Two hollow eye sockets stared blankly at the heavens, each one wide enough to swallow an imperial palace. Between those petrified brows stood the eastern monolith of the Ledger of Souls, glowing with an incandescence that drowned out the darkness of the gorge.Before that monolith stood Prince Jin Wuji.Unlike his discarded half-brother Jin Tuo, Jin Wuji looked every inch the supreme scion of the Great Jin Dy
Chapter 62: The Auditor's Toll
The tip of the willow branch tapped the center rail of the bone abacus.It was not a blow of physical violence; it was an act of profound conceptual correction. The pale green leaves did not crush the knuckle-bone beads; instead, a filament of pristine, milk-white script flowed from the wood straight into the abacus frame.The Seven-Star Soul-Grinding Cauldron was built upon a web of predatory equations: every living breath within its boundary was converted into a negative tally, compelling the earth to extract an equivalent debt in blood. Lord Ke was not a warrior who wielded Qi through brute force; he was the ledger's accountant, his spiritual consciousness bound directly to the mathematical rhythm of the beads.When Lu Chen's script entered the frame, it did not smash the tally.It settled the debt.Megrez node: balanced. Phecda node: nullified. Dubhe node: surplus redirected. In a single fraction of an inst
Chapter 61: The Deficit on the Abacus
The inversion did not announce itself with thunder. It began as a silent tilt in the world's breath.As Lu Chen, Kuang Yan, and Chu Qingxuan descended the southern spine of the caldera, the red mist ceased its lazy churning. It flattened, stretching into taut, horizontal streamers that pointed directly toward the valley's four cardinal quadrants like compass needles pulled toward iron mountains.Then came the suction.It was not a wind that pulled at cloth or hair; it was a gravitational drag exerted directly upon spiritual seas. Every cultivator within a fifty-mile radius suddenly felt as though an invisible hook had snagged their dantian, tugging circulating Qi outward through their pores. Ordinary cultivators stumbled, falling to their knees as internal rhythms stuttered under the violent drain.Along the jagged ravine leading to the southern terrace, dozens of fleeing figures appeared through the haze—prodigies from central and southern dynasties who had entered the trial seeking
