The Wordless Stele emerged, and Heaven and Earth were stabilized.

The Immortal Domain, which had been trembling violently moments ago, instantly became stable.

At this moment, time itself seemed to fall into stillness.

Amid the absolute silence, a majestic aura emerged. It was an immense and glorious might so overwhelming that even Li Fan, the closest observer, found his thoughts nearly freezing.

If the Wordless Stele had not merely remained there in silence without any intention of attacking, and if it had not been standing within the Immortal Domain, Li Fan feared that he would have been torn to pieces by this aura alone.

His strength was enough to dominate the Darkest Star Sea, yet before the Wordless Stele of the Immortal Domain, Li Fan was truly no more than an ant caught in a violent storm, with neither his life nor death under his own control.

Li Fan's expression changed drastically. He tried to summon the phantom of the Wooden Sword and flee.

But to his horror, he discovered that all the laws constituting the Wooden Sword had been affected by the Wordless Stele and were completely unable to function.

Even the Transformation of Truth and Falsehood was no exception.

The Wordless Stele stood there as though it were the center of all worlds.

Apart from the Immortal Domain, which was slowly stabilizing, everything else was surging toward the Wordless Stele and collapsing into it.

This was different from the Immortal Ruins absorbing and devouring everything in the star sea. Things drawn toward the Immortal Ruins were torn apart by powerful True Immortal power and reduced to fragments.

But those falling toward the Wordless Stele...

Li Fan saw it clearly. Outside the Immortal Domain, within the Darkest Star Sea, whether they were remnants of True Immortal power or fragments of worlds, all of them surged violently toward the Wordless Stele. Yet after entering its vicinity, they were all decomposed and transformed into "nothing."

"No!"

The charging progress of the [Truth]'s protective energy plummeted. Li Fan's vision gradually distorted.

Countless arcs revolved around the center. On the Wordless Stele that was absorbing and devouring everything, Li Fan could clearly see that mottled shadows had begun to appear.

"It is not nothing! All things are returning to their original state, returning to the Wordless Stele! This is the evolution of the Dao, tracing the Dao back to its origin!"

Li Fan's mind trembled violently, and his brain was almost completely blank.

The magnificent scene before his eyes, comparable to the creation of the world itself, deeply shook Li Fan.

It was as if he had been fortunate enough to glimpse the Great Dao itself.

With every passing moment, countless insights erupted within Li Fan's mind.

He had once experienced something similar when he directly confronted the true intent of the origin of the star sea. But now, Li Fan's comprehension was a thousand, ten thousand times greater than before.

Even the Transformation of Truth and Falsehood, which he could only comprehend to a limited extent through each reincarnation simulation, now seemed faintly within his grasp.

"What is true, and what is false? They are all merely evolutions of the Dao! With a single thought, the Dao gives birth to a world, and the Dao evolves into all things. With a single thought, the Dao perishes, all things wither and return to nothingness..."

Li Fan seemed possessed, completely immersed in his observation of the Wordless Stele and unable to extricate himself.

Just like the countless things in the Star Sea drawn toward the Wordless Stele, he could not escape.

Even after sensing several figures that had been drawn here by the appearance of the Wordless Stele within the Immortal Domain, Li Fan did not divert his attention in the slightest.

Those figures treated one another with mutual courtesy, each maintaining a certain distance.

Several strands of consciousness seemed to drift across Li Fan's body as well, but without exception, they soon shifted their attention toward the center of the storm.

Before the upheaval caused by the Wordless Stele, all living beings were equal.

True Immortals and Supreme Ones were all ants.

The pressure that those occupying higher positions had once exerted upon those beneath them was completely erased by the Wordless Stele.

They gazed upon the Wordless Stele, just like Li Fan, shaken into silence.

The Wordless Stele of the Immortal Domain was like a tiny hole that had suddenly appeared at the center of the Star Sea, with everything within the star sea collapsing toward it.

The collapse of all things formed a torrential waterfall flow.

Only the strongest beings standing at the summit of the Star Sea could barely maintain their positions outside the tiny hole.

From the distant edges of the Star Sea, faint rumbling sounds could be heard.

These were signs that the endless Sea of Relic Artifacts and the Great Wall of Remnant Worlds were beginning to collapse.

Countless endless ruins surged toward the Immortal Domain.

Even the invisible High Wall seemed to have been affected.

Amid violent tremors, some inexplicable transformation occurred.

Like dark clouds pressing down upon the land, countless scenes and images descended upon the edges of the star sea.

...

One terrifying phenomenon after another appeared.

Then a clear female voice suddenly rang out, carrying both surprise and fear.

It sounded so out of place.

Yet it was able to cross through the storm caused by the Wordless Stele and reach the ears of everyone present, demonstrating just how terrifying its owner's strength was.

"The Southern Immortal Celestial Pillar? How could it appear here?"

Before her voice had even faded, its owner transformed into a streak of flowing light and shot directly toward the center of the storm.

She seemed intent on entering the Immortal Domain to investigate.

But the Immortal Domain emitted a faint radiance, actually blocking that figure outside.

"This is..."

"The Tali Star Domain, the Ancient Realm of All Living Beings!"

The slightly slender figure finally revealed her true appearance.

She looked somewhat pale, as if she had just recovered from a serious illness.

Her eyes were deep, seemingly containing endless mysteries within them, causing anyone who looked upon them to become deeply entranced.

Her appearance was not particularly beautiful, and could even be described as ordinary.

Yet she possessed a unique charm that made her unforgettable at a glance.

"She is..."

The appearance of this figure caused Li Fan to regain a trace of awareness.

Thinking about her words and looking at that somewhat familiar figure, Li Fan's heart stirred.

"The True Immortal who is comprehending the Dao within the Immortal Ruins? I had previously only seen her skeletal form and incarnation phantom. I never expected that she was actually a woman."

Perhaps sensing the thoughts around her that were related to herself, the True Immortal slightly frowned and swept her gaze around.

Li Fan's heart immediately tightened.

But perhaps because of the influence of the Wordless Stele, the True Immortal could not precisely lock onto her target.

After confirming that everyone around her appeared to be ordinary mortals, the True Immortal's attention returned to the Immortal Domain.

Her figure rippled like waves as she seemed to attempt to merge into the Immortal Domain.

But the Immortal Domain seemed to possess an innate repulsion toward True Immortals.

A more violent radiance suddenly erupted, instantly forcing the True Immortal back several dozen feet.

The True Immortal's expression immediately became somewhat grim.

The aura around her suddenly changed.

Her figure also vanished from everyone's sight.

Li Fan could only vaguely see a transparent protrusion formed from distorted spacetime, seemingly moving toward the Immortal Domain.

The radiance surrounding the Immortal Domain was suddenly pushed outward, forming a huge bulge.

Several breaths later, the True Immortal successfully entered the Immortal Domain.

Her objective was obvious.

She headed directly toward the Wordless Stele at the center.

From outside, the Immortal Domain appeared to be merely a tiny region.

Yet the True Immortal from the Immortal Ruins flew for a long time and had only advanced a short distance within it.

Moreover, the closer she approached the Wordless Stele, the slower her movement became.

It was as though an infinite distance truly lay between them.

What happened within the Immortal Domain did not affect the Darkest Star Sea.

The endless Great Wall of Remnant Worlds and the Sea of Relic Artifacts still inevitably fell toward the Wordless Stele.

Before even approaching the Immortal Domain, they transformed into streaks of light.

After being absorbed by the Wordless Stele, they merely added a few more mottled marks upon its surface.

They could not even leave behind the slightest shallow imprint.

The "waterfall flow" became increasingly violent.

Li Fan gradually found it difficult to maintain his position.

Whenever a streak of light representing some object roared past him, Li Fan would feel as though the original object represented by that light had suddenly crashed into his body.

It pushed him step by step toward the Immortal Domain.

Nothing in the Star Sea could escape this fate.

The Xuanhuang Realm was no exception.

Li Fan saw Immortal Ancestor and the Heavenly Doctor.

The two figures had actually broken free from the temptation of comprehending the Dao presented by the Wordless Stele.

They were desperately attempting to prevent the Xuanhuang Realm from falling into destruction.

But their efforts were nothing more than a cup of water against a burning cart, merely delaying the inevitable.

Apart from them, two figures, one large and one small, stood side by side not far away, attracting Li Fan's attention.

"The Dao, ancient beyond antiquity. Xin, is completely extinguished. Walk the path of thought cultivation, comprehend the intent, proceed toward the divine. A thousand paths shift the soul, a hundred trials turn the spirit."

"...No calamity."

There was a faint, profound and mysterious sound continuously resounding from the larger figure. As for the smaller figure, its gaze was greedy yet tinged with fear as it stared at the Wordless Stele not far away.

“Heavenly Capital Grand Mage!” Li Fan's heart tightened.

“The incantation being recited by that phantom seems to have appeared in my previous life as well, when I was facing the Obliterating Wind Calamity.”

“Could there be some deeper mystery behind it?”

This time, he was extremely close, allowing him to hear the phantom's recitation completely and clearly.

After memorizing the entire immortal art, Li Fan followed along and silently recited it in his heart.

In an instant, it was as if an invisible force enveloped his body.

It was like a great hand pressing firmly down upon him, making him even more stable amid the storm generated by the Wordless Stele.

“Could this be used to evade calamity?” Li Fan was filled with uncertainty.

The Daoist child beside the phantom glanced at Li Fan with a hint of mockery.

However, he did not say anything. He was not even interested in paying attention to Li Fan, quickly turning his gaze back toward the Wordless Stele.

Li Fan glanced at the remaining charging progress of [Truth]. Seeing that it could still hold out for a while, his thoughts stirred, and he summoned Tianyang and Qiushui.

The two figures crossed the void and arrived beside Li Fan, standing on either side to protect him.

Even the auras of the two Supreme failed to make the Daoist child phantom shift his gaze.

Li Fan had no intention of provoking the Grand Mage either. Instead, he once again looked toward the Immortal Domain.

He did not know what method the True Immortal of the Immortal Ruins had used. Unnoticed by the surrounding observers, she had suddenly moved much closer to the Wordless Stele.

The blurred scene within the Immortal Domain gradually became clearer.

Mountains, rivers, and vast stretches of land began to emerge.

Li Fan keenly noticed that the aura surrounding the Grand Mage had become somewhat chaotic. It seemed that he was unwilling to accept something and was beginning to stir restlessly.

Just at this moment...

The rolling black mist at the center of the Star Sea finally arrived like a world devouring flood.

As if possessing a will of its own, it swept past Li Fan and headed straight toward the Immortal Domain.

The phantom of the Grand Mage seemed to awaken from a dream. His expression instantly became one of extreme terror, as if he had seen a ghost.

He fled without hesitation and disappeared in an instant.

The radiance of the Immortal Domain could not obstruct the black mist in the slightest.

Instead, because of the attraction of the Wordless Stele, the vast black mist became even more condensed.

Originally, it had merely been an endless sea of black qi.

But after pouring into the Immortal Domain, it transformed into a long, concentrated stream descending from the heavens.

Within the Immortal Domain, dark clouds pressed down upon the city, as if the heavens themselves were about to collapse.

The True Immortal of the Immortal Ruins, who was approaching the Wordless Stele, suddenly raised her head.

Her expression could not be seen clearly, but her next action was somewhat beyond Li Fan's expectations.

She did not flee like the phantom of the Grand Mage.

Instead, she accelerated even further and charged toward the Wordless Stele.

The space around the True Immortal of the Immortal Ruins became somewhat distorted. She was now only a stone's throw away from the Wordless Stele.

Under the influence of the endless dark clouds, a terrifying calamity descended upon the Immortal Domain that had only just manifested.

It was as if a layer of the heavens had collapsed for no reason.

Then, beneath that collapsed sky, the mountains, rivers, and land that had only recently appeared began to disintegrate inch by inch, instantly turning into nothingness.

Moments later, boundless black mist surged forth from within.

A black avalanche swept inward from all directions, engulfing everything as it surged toward the center of the Immortal Domain.

The heavens of the Immortal Domain continued to collapse.

The boundaries of the Immortal Domain also grew smaller and smaller.

At this critical moment, the True Immortal of the Immortal Ruins finally arrived before the Wordless Stele.

She struck out with a dazzling radiance, blasting it directly into the Wordless Stele.

It seemed that several strokes of a character suddenly appeared upon the surface of the Wordless Stele.

Moments later, a pillar of light that reached the heavens erupted from the top of the Wordless Stele.

It barely held back the surging tide of black mist and the descending phenomenon of the collapsing heavens.

It was like a heavenly pillar, supporting the heavens that were on the verge of falling.

“The Dao Annihilation Calamity...”

“The Southern Immortal Celestial Pillar...”

After witnessing everything, Li Fan vaguely understood the meaning behind the words of the True Immortal of the Immortal Ruins.

But a lone tree could not support the heavens.

The power of the Wordless Stele activated by the True Immortal of the Immortal Ruins alone seemed insufficient to stop the arrival of the Dao Annihilation Calamity.

Although the tide of black mist advanced slowly, it continued pressing downward with unwavering determination.

Despair gradually appeared on the face of the True Immortal of the Immortal Ruins.

And after devouring the Immortal Domain, the black mist had also become somewhat different from before.

Vague figures seemed to flicker in and out of existence within it.

Li Fan's sense of danger suddenly intensified.

He turned his head and saw that, throughout the remaining regions of the Darkest Star Sea, boundless quantities of black mist were simultaneously emerging from every corner.

In an instant, they spread throughout the entire Star Sea.

Moreover, none of this black mist was the same as the version that had originally existed within the Star Sea.

It had seemingly undergone a sublimation after devouring the Immortal Domain.

Throughout the Star Sea, faint clusters of black mist drifted everywhere, like countless ghosts wandering through the night.

The strange figures within the black qi seemed to conceal some tremendous terror. They caused Li Fan's heart to race for no apparent reason, while a chill crawled across his scalp.

Even [Truth], which rarely issued warnings, transmitted an alarm.

It continuously urged him to flee immediately.

“It is time to return to [Truth].”

Looking at the terrifying scene of the black mist running rampant, this thought could not help but emerge within Li Fan's heart.

But just before the light screen of [Truth], enveloped him, Li Fan suddenly experienced a moment of enlightenment.

A white circle flew from his hand and instantly shot toward the Wordless Stele within the Immortal Domain.

It was none other than the White Ring, Descends into Mortal World!

It did not encounter the same obstruction as the True Immortal of the Immortal Ruins.

Instead, it flew straight inside, breaking through the encircling tide of surging black mist.

Then it collided with the Wordless Stele.

There was no earthshaking explosion.

Only dazzling radiance suddenly surged from the white circle.

Then it disappeared from view.

At the same time, a complete character suddenly appeared upon the Wordless Stele.

It was none other than a True Immortal Seal Script character representing the principles of the Great Dao of the World!

The appearance of this True Immortal Seal Script character seemed to inject an immense amount of energy into the Southern Immortal Celestial Pillar.

The pillar of light it emitted suddenly expanded.

The surrounding tide of black qi was instantly forced back.

The True Immortal of the Immortal Ruins, who had been filled with despair moments ago, also reacted at this moment.

Without holding anything back, she poured all her energy into the Wordless Stele before her.

Flesh and blood, along with her hair, vanished from the body of the True Immortal of the Immortal Ruins.

She once again returned to the skeletal appearance Li Fan had previously seen within the Immortal Ruins.

Within the Wordless Stele, a second True Immortal Seal Script character slowly emerged.

The pillar of light expanded once again, finally piercing through the tide of black mist.

A gigantic ring of light formed across the horizon.

The True Immortal of the Immortal Ruins wrapped herself around the Wordless Stele and broke through the black mist's blockade.

It seemed that she had noticed Li Fan's earlier intervention and intended to take him with her.

She flew toward Li Fan's position.

Yet, to her utter astonishment, Li Fan's figure rapidly retreated.

At the same time, Tianyang and Qiushui moved forward to intercept her.

“[Truth]!”

Li Fan silently recited the words in his heart.
