"Don't even think about it!"

The Purifier on the right shouted fiercely. No longer holding back, their form completely exploded, transforming into an endless torrent of dark red resentful souls that surged directly toward the core of the star track network.

Those five clusters of star-flames—"With the resentment we have accumulated over a thousand years, we shall defile the very roots of your star-flames!"

The Purifier on the left followed closely behind, their dark red crystalline arm extending infinitely as they clawed toward Bai Cheng's emperors imprint. "Your path ends here!"

The Purifier in the center formed hand seals, drawing upon the residual power of the seed of world purification from the outside.

Although twenty percent had been plundered by the Lion Star Guard and it had been further weakened by the domain, the remaining fifty percent of the seed of world purification still released a terrifying suction force.

Like a black hole, it tore at the entire temporary star track domain, threatening to completely suck in, crush, and sacrifice this space along with Bai Cheng.

A three-pronged encirclement; each side presented a fatal predicament.

Bai Cheng's silver eyes reflected the surging torrent of resentful souls, the grasping giant crystalline hand, and the abyss-like suction of the seed of world purification above.

Blood seeped from the corner of her mouth once more, and her body trembled slightly under a pressure far exceeding her limits, yet her gaze was unprecedentedly calm, even carrying a hint of relief.

"Indeed, it seems my path always leads to a dead end."

She whispered to herself, as if in conversation with someone, or perhaps just speaking to her own soul.

"At Broken Shell Island, I was isolated and without help."

"Before the Sighing Cliff, my strength fell short."

"In the Forgotten Corridor, I looked around in a daze."

"At the Edge of the Fallen Void, I nearly lost myself..."

"Every time, it felt like I had reached the end."

Her gaze swept across the starlit background, over those points of light she had ignited, which were now transmitting faint resonances from across the vast distance.

"But every time, there is always a glimmer of light willing to believe in me, willing to walk beside me."

The inherited starlight of Star Chart Island, the resilient glimmer from the Edge of the Fallen Void, and the light of conviction from Zi Yuan and the others who were currently fighting desperately outside to buy her time...

As well as the five clusters of star-flames deep within her soul, carrying countless trusts and expectations.

"So, this time, it won't be the end either."

Bai Cheng closed her eyes.

Her hands no longer maintained the operation of the star track projection; instead, she slowly spread them to her sides, as if embracing something.

At that moment, the final remaining gap in the emperors imprint on her forehead was completely filled by the resonant conviction surging from the depths of her soul—from all the glimmers she had ignited.

One hundred percent.

Complete pale golden patterns instantly covered the entire seal. Then, the patterns began to burn, transforming into pure golden flames that spread down from her brow, covering her entire body in the blink of an eye.

She opened her eyes.

Her eyes were no longer pure silver, but had turned into a brilliant gold, flowing with the orbits of the star river!

"My path is Order."

Her voice was calm, yet it carried a certain unquestionable authority of law that echoed in every corner of the temporary star track domain.

"My way is the star track."

The golden flames covering her body suddenly pulled inward, condensing behind her into a towering gate—a hundred zhang high and composed entirely of pure golden law patterns!

No longer a phantom, but a physical entity.

It was no longer a Star Rail Gate, but... the gate of gui xu!

Upon the gate were carved the ultimate truths of the universe's birth and death and the rotation of the star seas, flowing with the chaotic aura from the dawn of creation.

It opened slightly, and what flowed from the crack was not destruction, but a Void Origin Power that could encompass, purify, and reshape everything.

It was the original "Nothingness," and the starting point that gave birth to all "Being."

The surging torrent of resentful souls struck the phantom of the gate and melted like snow, failing to create even a single ripple.

The grasping giant crystalline hand touched the edge of the gate and instantly disintegrated into the most primitive dark red energy particles, which were then assimilated and absorbed by the Void Origin Power flowing from the gate.

The terrifying suction from the seed of world purification above seemed to encounter its natural enemy the moment the gate of gui xu appeared, suddenly recoiling.

Instead, it was drawn and pulled by the invisible force field emitted by the gate, its dark red impurities being stripped away and purified at a visible rate.

They were converted into pure, attribute-less origin energy and flowed into the gate.

The blurred figures of the three Purifiers distorted violently, letting out unbelievable roars mixed with fear:

"The gate of gui xu?! Impossible! That is an origin symbol that can only be condensed # Nоvеlight # by an existence who has ascended to the Emperor's Seat and completely mastered the star track laws of a region! You clearly haven't yet..."

"The path I have walked is my law."

Bai Cheng stood before the gate of gui xu, her golden eyes looking down at them.

"The conviction I carry is my authority. Today, I shall reforge the beginning of the star track of the Emerald Sea."

She raised her hand and lightly clenched it toward the struggling remaining fifty percent of the seed of world purification and the three Purifiers.

The gate of gui xu swung wide open!

It was not a devouring, but a... reboot.

A vast, indescribable Void Origin Power surged forth, drowning the seed of world purification, the three Purifiers, and all the dark red impurities within this temporary star track domain.

There were no explosions, no screams.

There was only the purest dissolution and reshaping, as if time itself were flowing backward.

The dark red shell of the seed of world purification peeled off piece by piece, revealing the core light orb composed of the distorted convictions of the myriad beings of the Emerald Sea.

Under the washing of the Void Power, the pain, despair, and madness within the light orb were cleansed one by one, leaving only the most authentic obsessions of prayer, longing, and protection.

Like washed pearls, they shimmered with a soft and pure light.

The forms of the three Purifiers completely dissipated, returning to three of the most original and powerful law fragments.

Those were the underlying rule authorities of the Emerald Sea that they had stolen and distorted.

Now, these fragments were stripped of all personal will and pollution by the Void Power, restored to pure law origins, and suspended in the starry sky.

Within the entire temporary star track domain, all the corrupted track pathways eroded by the dark red were wiped away by the flow of Void Power as if by an eraser, vanishing without a trace.

All that remained was the pure, silver-white star track network, the five clusters of blazing star-flames acting as core nodes within it, and the countless glimmers of conviction that had been purified and ignited around them.

Outside the domain, in the real world.

The giant crystalline tree stopped throbbing, its surface cracked, and it rapidly collapsed.

The entire dark red building complex lost its energy supply and began to dim and disintegrate.

The rotten marrow mist stopped churning, and the remnant soul of the Abyssal Whale within it let out a long, relieved sigh before falling into complete silence.

The explosions and thunder to the east subsided. Covered in blood and supporting each other, Zi Yuan and Blue Bird stood frozen in place as they watched the giant tree collapse.

In the pipe area below, Lu Duo and Yu Nian broke through the crystalline barrier and rushed out.

They also looked up in shock at the dissipating temporary domain, which faintly revealed a golden starlight from within.
