But why is Ji Jingqiu's Heart Lamp effective?

After an indeterminate time, the Saint King whispered, "Mortals fear outcomes, Gods fear causes..."

"What?" Ji Jingqiu queried.

In a deliberate tone, the Saint King said, "Do you know what your Heart Lamp truly contains?"

What does the Heart Lamp contain?

Ji Jingqiu carefully enumerated: Infinite Wisdom Light, Glazed Glass Light, and the Light of Heart Moon...

"Thought of All Living Beings." The Saint King unveiled the mystery solemnly, "The Heart Lamp contains the intense thought of all living beings, which helps me to dispel this invisible Dao suppression!"

Thought of All Living Beings...

Ji Jingqiu immediately thought of his Heart Moon Light.

Boom——

With the disappearance of the Godslaying Sword, the God-slaying Platform collapsed in a thunderous crash!

In the void ahead, the Dao Rhyme loomed, accompanied by chaotic thunder tribulations, interweaving and surging in the void.

Heaven and Earth shook violently, as if to collapse on the spot.

A True Saint attempted to exit this realm, only to find they could no longer locate the path they came from!

Thud, thud...

Heavy, soul-stirring footsteps sounded from the collapsing void ahead, resembling ominous drumbeats that vibrated the void.

Behind Ji Jingqiu, a group of True Saints inexplicably felt a panic-inducing terror as the footsteps caused their scalp to numb and their hearts to chill!

They had felt this similar sensation before with that Yin Fire Dharma Aspect.

"What kind of unearthly force is this that can causally exert innate suppression over us?"

Konghai noticed the strangeness of this power, frowning tightly as he turned to look at Feng Ming and Yin An.

Feng Ming's face was unsightly, "Don't look at me; since entering this territory, I've sensed an invisible Dao suppression, perhaps due to my innate spiritual being identity."

"Innate Spiritual Being?" Mieyu said solemnly from the side, "All innate spiritual beings are considered half-innate gods. Could it be this place is truly the dojo of that Ancestor of Divine Dao, and merely the lingering Dao Rhyme in Heaven and Earth is enough to impose Dao suppression on us?"

At this moment, the heavy footsteps interrupted their conversation.

Terrifying fluctuations and auras rapidly expanded, like an endless fog, enveloping them.

The most frightening aspect was that their Primordial Spirits began to tremble along with the footsteps, causing considerable discomfort to those True Saints with innate spiritual being origins!

Even those without innate spiritual being origins sensed a latent existential peril!

"Is this a transcendence-level threat?" Takumi barked lowly, "We shouldn't have come in!"

Mieyu kept glancing at Ji Jingqiu, only relaxing upon seeing him take action.

Ji Jingqiu did not hesitate; with the Nether Sea surging beside him, he wielded the last of its power and struck with one slash!

Instantly, centered on him, it was as if a mythical ocean surged toward the Other Shore, flooding into the void ahead, provoking a low growl in response.

The increasingly close footsteps now receded, seemingly wary of the Nether Sea's power and altering their course.

While the Saints sighed in relief, their tense hearts did not fully relax.

What exactly is this damned place?!

Though they came as All Saints, they repeatedly found themselves in a passive position, each time encountering threats to their high-tiered lives!

After that strike, Ji Jingqiu could sense the complete withdrawal of the Nether Sea's power.

Unfazed, he said:

"Even if there's supernormal power in this territory, it's no more than spectral remnants. Don't be frightened; with your collective strength, you're more than capable of prevailing here."

With that, he waved his hand, scattering a series of Heart Lamps to the Saints.

Upon merging with the Heart Lamps, many Saints felt a sense of relief, albeit slight. While uncertain of the Heart Lamp's function, knowing it was a gift from him meant it must be useful!

"My power is limited. Next, I'll lock onto the position. Listen to my command and attack with all your might, spare no effort."

Ji Jingqiu instructed, with Kong Ming and Mieyu taking the lead and agreeing on behalf of All Saints.

Ji Jingqiu exchanged a glance with the Saint King before continuing toward the collapsing void ahead.

Soon, they encountered another anomaly, as a haunting female song emanated from the void ahead, poignant, lost, a sorrow greater than death...

Without a word, Ji Jingqiu raised his hand, pointing forward.

The Saints, already tense, now guided by the World Venerable, showed no hesitation and attacked full force, initiating with Killing Technique!

In a flash, dozens of Absolute Peak Divine Skills erupted simultaneously; someone wielding a giant axe enacted the Heaven and Earth Creation; another unleashed majestic purple Qi, engulfing all; some converted everything into Chaos Qi, navigating by the world's Qi!

The Dao Rhyme of All Saints illuminated the vast, boundless void, like a grand spectacle, sweeping forward!

In an instant, the void shattered completely, leaving behind not even a fragment. The haunting and poignant female song disappeared without a trace, as if it never existed.

Upon witnessing this, the Saints felt slightly relieved. The World Venerable was correct; even with residual transcendences, they were merely spectral remnants unable to withstand their combined might!

As everyone proceeded forward, some captured residual Dao Rhyme in Heaven and Earth, which did not belong to them, evidently left by the previous song.

"This is..."

The one who captured the Dao Rhyme exclaimed in a lost voice, but quickly restrained themselves.

All Saints gazed over, pressing for answers, but the individual merely shook their head, insisting it was nothing.

The Saints gaped at each other, some muttering about withholding secrets at such times, yet the individual remained silent.

The more they refrained from speaking, the hotter the Saints' curiosity burned, as this surely was a significant discovery.

Is this place not just a peril but also host to hidden opportunities?

Ji Jingqiu glanced back at the questioning True Saint.

The latter's face was conflicted at once, pondering whether to disclose it.
