In the void, those eyes mirrored the collapse of the heavens, deep as if sun and moon were united, watching indifferently below.

Where the gaze reached, the shattered starry sky seemed compressed by an invisible giant force, letting out a groan of distress. Here, the Time River of this realm revealed its true form, violently quaking, as if driven by the will contained in the gaze.

Witnessing this scene, Shou Ji and others' expressions changed drastically. To what extent had this person reached to forcefully harness the power of the Void Realm's Time River within such a short time!

Is there still a path for one who harmonizes with one realm?

The crystalline threads of karma entwined around Jing Qiu suddenly became fiery and heavy, like chains glowing red, dragging him towards the Time River.

Is this the power of a Half-step Returning to Truth?

Jing Qiu's hand holding the blade swelled with veins, Green Master's hum intensified, slashing horizontally with one strike!

Not only did he sever the threads of karma entwining him, but also sliced Xuan Chongguang floating midair into two, leaving his Tao body thoroughly broken.

Noticing the master's attitude, the spirit god descended into the abyss, now without strength to struggle.

Jing Qiu raised the sword, the clear shadow of the long river on the blade flowed swiftly, invoking the power of Heavenly Destiny here, forcefully suppressing the boiling of the Time River.

Within this was not just the oppression of fate but also the backlash from the Time River itself against the Red Lotus.

"Ha…"

A low, seemingly meaningless laugh descended from high above.

A red lotus phantom bloomed in the void, with raging flames capable of incinerating the Great Realm, spreading like a substantial tide toward the starry sky.

Jing Qiu remained calmly unafraid.

To him, upon reaching the Eight Realms, everything was utterly different.

Having broken through the Eighth Realm Barrier, even if there were Dao Ancestor and True Saint beyond Heavenly Venerable, it was no longer a "fundamental" difference.

In a way, he now held the option to overturn the table.

As for the moment.

Holding the divine weapon, occupying the home ground, while the opponent arrived only as a clone, withstanding the rebound and suppression of the Void Realm.

There was no reason to fear.

With a slight lift of the sword tip, Jing Qiu communicated with Heavenly Will, under its cooperation, mobilizing the power of the River of Destiny, suppressing the invasion of outside enemies.

This Heavenly Will, though more magnificent and grand than that of the Netherworld, appeared… bloated, slower in mobilizing power and locking down enemies, far less "spiritual" than the Heavenly Will of the Netherworld.

And at this moment.

What Jing Qiu cared more about was why this Red Lotus Realm Master was so intent on killing him.

Did this intense killing intent originate from the karmic old grievances of Chaohua Realm, or…

The Returning to Truth Road?

The Divine Sword's spirit prepared by the Void for him, appearing because of another, was a point he had to be wary of.

If it were the former, he just needed to be cautious.

But if it were the latter, the problem would be significant.

In the battlefield at that moment, with the cooperation of various gates, an overwhelming numerical advantage suppressed a group of Dao Ancestor Heavenly Venerates from This Shore in a short time. Someone had already exposed their identity.

In terms of situation, Jing Qiu undoubtedly achieved a major victory.

They launched an attack, encircled and hunted down. If the Red Lotus did not appear, rounding them all up was just a matter of time.

Even though Qing Yu had already conceived plans of retreat without a fight, she couldn't find an opportunity to flee.

She and Fu Shan withdrew to the side, trying hard to sustain, hearts burning with anxiety.

Fu Shan's expression was solemn, transmitting calmly: "Do not panic, move towards Xuan Chongguang. He will not let us sacrifice!"

Qing Yu glanced at Xuan Chongguang's position, her hair stood on end instantly.

Approaching Xuan Chongguang meant getting close to Jing Qiu, didn't it?!

This guy, before becoming a Heavenly Venerable, could slash with a blade bringing victory and defeat between Heavenly Venerables to a line. Now promoted to Heavenly Venerable, suppressing her wouldn't take any effort!

At immeasurable heights, a towering silhouette appeared, amidst the extremes of heaven and earth, as if numerous gods and all spirits were worshiping at the peak, converging into a grand body of faith.

Even though separated by the Endless Boundary Sea, an indescribable majestic pressure filled the heaven and earth, changing its color.

She stood within the Sea of Realms, overlooking the Void Realm, gaze cold, invisible power stirring the storm, descending within the realm to suppress Jing Qiu.

Jing Qiu held the Green Master, casually slashing, not even glancing at the exhausted Xuan Chongguang beside him, nor bothering to look up at the high and mighty Red Lotus Realm Master.

If this figure dared not to come in, then why stand tall outside the realm?

Is it just posing?

"Junior Brother Ji, be careful!" Shou Ji gravely transmitted, "She is still attempting to break through the Void Realm's blockade!"

The Pantheon, having faced off against This Shore for years, was deeply aware of the power of the three Invincible within, including the Red Lotus.

This person, with a clone, combining the Tao of incense belief, projecting across the heavens, could bear eighty percent of its full Tao Power!

Jing Qiu glanced around, facing the Red Lotus, raised his blade wrapped in Heavenly Will, aiding various Taoist friends, and thoroughly ended this encirclement.

At this moment.

The Void Realm shook slightly.

As if someone forcefully collided with an entire realm, faint ripples undulated across the realm's surface.

A Chaos Qi transformed into a Void Heaven-Reaching Road, instantly descending, guiding everyone including Xuan Chongguang.

Except for a few already suppressed into the Inner Universe by Shou Ji and others, the remaining were led into the void.

Jing Qiu's eyes focused, raising his blade to slash, fearless, causing Shou Ji and others' brows to twitch.

In fact, when this figure appeared, Shou Ji and others already had the thought of retreat.

Though this figure couldn't enter the Void Realm, they certainly couldn't confront it either, needing to continue finding people above!

Jing Qiu slashed towards the sky with this blade, like a vast river rising from the ground, stirring waves, shaking heaven and earth.
