The Singularity blooms here like a flower, achieving a stable state.

Afterwards, Zhou Yan returned through the unknown Yuan Magnetic Channel and arrived at the Cold Pond.

By the Cold Pond, a female being spoke some urgent words to Zhou Yan, the specifics of which he could not fully recall.

However, after that, Zhou Yan knew one thing: he had to return beyond the Abyss quickly, or he would face Destruction here.

So much so that he had forgotten the female being who accompanied him; he retraced his steps back to the Dark Sky.

In the Dark Sky, an unknown amount of time had passed unknowingly, and as Zhou Yan returned, he faintly sensed many beings around him, most of whom he did not recognize. But each of them was a powerful being of the Eternal Life’s Seven, Eight, or even Nine Rules, yet they all looked at the turbulent Singularity on the sky with a gaze of despair.

In this Dark Sky, Zhou Yan could not remember many things, knowing only of his own existence, existing like a presence among the Word Spirit Race.

He gradually lost his self, with emotions quietly fading away.

After endless ages of flying through the Dark Void, one day, a distant ancient city appeared there.

The city was incredibly ancient, vaguely the shape of the Sacrificial Heaven Ancient City.

Zhou Yan saw this city and felt it should be the Sacrificial Heaven Ancient City, which was the true place of safety.

Opposite the Sacrificial Heaven Ancient City appeared a gigantic mountain, a Snow Mountain.

A stretch of pale Snow Mountains stood at the peak of the Void, lofty and seemingly like an Immortal Palace, full of beauty and vitality.

The Sacrificial Heaven Ancient City was a place of Corruption.

Yet the distant Snow Peak was the Origin of endless Life.

What all this meant, Zhou Yan didn’t know.

But Zhou Yan saw many Eternal Life Beings around him quickly flying towards the Snow Peak, despite the vast distance that would take an unknown amount of time to cross, they flew without hesitation.

Zhou Yan knew clearly that everything outside the Sacrificial Heaven Ancient City would face destruction, true destruction.

Thus he desperately wanted to stop it, wanted to shout.

He stepped out to stop them, expressing his thoughts, urging all beings to enter the Sacrificial Heaven Ancient City.

But the beings did not believe him, nor did they heed him.

Ultimately, only a countable number followed Zhou Yan into the Sacrificial Heaven Ancient City.

Among those beings, Zhou Yan was a bit familiar with them, yet he could not recall each one’s face.

The only one he could remember was Hua Qiudao.

Indeed, Zhou Yan saw Hua Qiudao here, and he followed Zhou Yan into the Sacrificial Heaven Ancient City.

This was the only being Zhou Yan could momentarily recall.

After Zhou Yan entered the city, the Singularity’s turmoil and the catastrophe of Destruction finally occurred, a terrifying Great Collapse evolved into a venomous poison of Evil Spirit. This poison, like a toxin destroying all things, would dry and decay any being it touched, transforming them into the most Originary Spiritual Energy Elements, returning to the world.

This situation could indeed shake Zhou Yan.

However, under this unknown state, Zhou Yan had no fluctuations of the Seven Emotions and Six Desires within.

His call for the beings to enter the Sacrificial Heaven Ancient City seemed driven by a sense of responsibility and duty after understanding the disaster the Singularity would bring, rather than care for the beings’ Life and Death.

Seeing Hua Qiudao, Zhou Yan was not surprised, even somehow felt it was expected.

Now, even seeing the dense masses of Eternal Life Beings turn into the most Originary Dark Elements and vanish into the world, he felt nothing.

Yet, in this poison, there were still beings able to survive tenaciously; they were some extraordinarily powerful Life.

Those beings swiftly charged towards the Sacrificial Heaven Ancient City.

And Zhou Yan then casually decided to Seal the Sacrificial Heaven Ancient City.

Once the Sacrificial Heaven Ancient City was sealed, the beings outside fiercely attacked it, finally making the city unable to withstand. The Protective Array was broken, and the seals were lifted.

Then some powerful beings rushed into the Sacrificial Heaven Ancient City.

The number of such beings was nearly a hundred.

After entering, these beings did not conflict with Zhou Yan but started recovering and cultivating in the Sacrificial Heaven Ancient City.

After the Protective Array of the Sacrificial Heaven Ancient City was breached, Zhou Yan instructed Hua Qiudao to repair it.

Later, Zhou Yan silently gazed at the distant Snow Peak.

On the Snow Peak, there seemed to be immensely powerful beings with human heads and snake bodies disappearing into the destruction of the catastrophe.

On the endless Snow Peak, Zhou Yan knew there must be top-tier beings and terrifying presences, but those truths are now unknown.

Zhou Yan felt they must have been destroyed amidst it.

Yet Zhou Yan hadn’t witnessed their demise, only subconsciously believed they were gone.

The Snow Peak collapsed, the Dark Void continued for a very long time.

Finally, those injured beings that rushed into the Sacrificial Heaven Ancient City recovered from their wounds, among them a particularly strong being began to criticize Zhou Yan and launched an attack on Zhou Yan.

That kind of battle, Zhou Yan himself could not describe, but he had a sense of helplessness from being unable to unleash his own power.

However, beyond this feeling of helplessness, Zhou Yan possessed a majestic power; thus, within the means of speech’s magical manifestation, Zhou Yan directly used runes to derive the path of words manifesting as law, suppressing and killing the immensely powerful creature alive.

Such a method stunned the other chaotic beings present, allowing Sacrificial Heaven Ancient City to return to Zhou Yan’s control.

Zhou Yan casually killed the immensely powerful creature—possibly even a Holy Spirit—and indifferently crushed a few Eternal Life beings with intense hatred, turning them into shriveled corpses.

After this, it seemed that Sacrificial Heaven Ancient City and the Dark Sky moved to an end, touching a unique domain.

Like the Elf Domain, this domain was bizarre and magnificent, very beautiful and captivating, and brightly glowing.

Upon reaching this place, all the beings in the Sacrificial Heaven Ancient City and the Dark Sky, as if guided by the unknown, flew into this bizarre and magnificent world.

This world was like a world of mental states, where all the beauty yearned for in the heart seemed to manifest in this world.

When Zhou Yan flew into this world, it was as if the Spirit of Eternal Life had achieved the ultimate transformation, akin to entering the clear and natural state of an infant’s slumber, a feeling that fiercely impacted his heart.

When Zhou Yan’s emotions gradually became tumultuous, he suddenly discovered Hua Qiudao standing dazedly in the distance, with an incredibly content smile on his face, quietly lying in the void.

From him emanated a unique masculine aura, an inexplicable manifestation of emotional movement.

But all around him, there was nothing, only a canopy of beautiful, colorless clouds.

He, did he seem to live in his own imagination?

Then where was I living?

Zhou Yan was confused.

He didn’t even know why he was here.

"Words manifest as law..."

"King Dao."

Zhou Yan murmured to himself, suddenly having an epiphany, like a flash of lightning passing through his mind, which he immediately grasped and understood.

"The essence of the Natural Thirteen Elements is chaos. I am chaos, and I can create heaven and earth, becoming one with the Three Pure Ones."

"As I am the Evil Spirit, I become the Evil Spirit Sovereign. Words manifest as law, I am the Word Spirit, thus establishing the Word Spirit King’s Rules!"

Zhou Yan murmured to himself, deriving various original rules, through which Zhou Yan manifested a unique will.

At that moment, this world trembled fiercely, as if about to collapse.

Yet the scene did not disappear, and Zhou Yan suddenly broke free, discovering he was still within the endless dark sky.

But beside him stood a cold woman.

A woman he had once been incredibly familiar with—Speech Spirit Heavenly Girl Fu Wanling.

"I didn’t expect any being to pass through the Word Spirit King Realm, but since you didn’t really pass, you must go back in."

Fu Wanling’s voice was exceedingly cold, with a deep undercurrent of inexplicable hatred.

This aura gave Zhou Yan an indescribable discomfort.

However, just having awakened from the unknown Word Spirit King Realm, Zhou Yan could hardly discern whether this was real or illusion, and thus could not respond to Fu Wanling for quite a while.

But, after a moment, Zhou Yan sensed the Thunder Flame Seal at his brow, and upon grasping the Lei Yan Continent deep within, he exhaled a relieved breath.

"Going back in is no problem, I feel like there’s much profound insight and understanding in there."

Zhou Yan sighed slightly, realizing that the King Immortal Principle—the Eternal Immortal King Principle he was once comprehending—had unexpectedly reached the Ninth Layer of minor completion.

Approaching Great Perfection, it was already very close.

And this, merely during the unknown ages spent within that Word Spirit King Realm.

"Is that so? Whatever benefits come, that is your fortune; if you fall into destruction, that is also your creation."

The Speech Spirit Heavenly Girl said, then released a blinding light that suddenly enveloped Zhou Yan, making the dark world instantly vanish.

And Zhou Yan once again entered that confused state, appearing in that bizarre and magnificent world.

In the distance, Hua Qiudao still lingered there, self-satisfied, with a look of contentment on his face, while Zhou Yan hesitated only for a moment.

All the external memories of Fu Wanling seemed to have unconsciously disappeared.
