Chapter 1189

"Foolish delusion!" the Heaven Pivot Child clone roared, forcibly urging his essence blood, the starlight surged again, yet it seemed to lack follow‑up strength.

"Stubbornly unresponsive! Then let's annihilate completely!" another mid‑stage Refining Void leader snorted, presenting a continuously rotating black skull, spewing corrosive starlight poison flames.

Seeing the starlight about to be utterly crushed, the Heaven Pivot Child clone's eyes flashed with a hint of despair.

At that moment

A gray‑white sword light, like the first ray that split heaven and earth, silently appeared at the center of the battlefield!

The sword light was initially faint, yet the moment it emerged it wildly Devoured the surrounding spiritual Qi of heaven and earth, the drifting death energy, and even the residual energy ripples of both combatants!

In an instant, the sword light surged, turning into a gray‑white river spanning the heavens! Within the river, the birth‑and‑death of stars ceased, replaced by a grand Silence Extinction, a great ruinous vision of all things ending and returning to void!

Return‑to‑Void Sword Path — Silence Extinction River!

This sword incorporated Han Wuxian's insights from the Cangwu Realm, and a deeper understanding of the source of Silence Extinction; its power far exceeds before!

"Who is that?!"

The two Eternal Dark mid‑stage Refining Void leaders' faces changed abruptly, sensing the terrifying Silence Extinction intent embedded in the sword light that made their hearts race, they hurriedly withdrew their talismans to protect their bodies!

But it was too late!

Snort!

The gray‑white river swept by silently!

Those myriad resentful souls and corrosive poison flames, like ice under sunlight, melted away instantly!

The bone banner and the black skull each emitted a mournful wail, the spiritual light dimmed instantly, and cracks appeared across their surfaces!

The two mid‑stage Refining Void leaders were as if struck heavily, spouting blood as they were flung backward, their faces filled with shock and disbelief!

"It's him! That kid who destroyed the altar!"

"How could he become this strong?!"

Not only them, but all combatants on both sides were stunned by this sudden, earth‑shattering sword!

The sword light contracted, Han Wuxian's figure appeared before the Heaven Pivot Child clone, his complexion still a bit pallid, but his posture stood tall like a sword, his gaze icy as he scanned the arena.

His aura was unmistakably at the pinnacle of a fully realized Transformation God, even a half‑step had brushed the threshold of Refining Void!

Han Wuxian took the initiative, his Silence Extinction sword intent weaving across, and using his Transformation God complete state, forcibly suppressed the two Eternal Dark mid‑stage Refining Void leaders!

Each of his swords contained a profound grasp of the source of Silence Extinction, no longer mere annihilation, but bearing the sense of "judgment" and "burial," as if he were the envoy wielding the end of all things. The Silence Extinction death energy that Eternal Dark cultivators rely on for fame, before Han Wuxian's Return‑to‑Void sword essence, seemed like a novice's effort, constantly being Devoured and transformed!

"His cultivation method is bizarre! Unbeatable! Form a formation!" a Eternal Dark leader shouted angrily.

The other three Refining Void early‑stage Eternal Dark cultivators who were dueling the Star Pivot Hall Elder heard the words, immediately abandoned their opponents, their forms flickered, and they merged with the two mid‑stage leaders.

The five took mysterious positions, their auras instantly merged, a torrent of massive Silence Extinction death energy surged out, coalescing above their heads into a huge, indistinct gray divine‑demon illusion! That illusion exuded a suffocating pressure, clearly reaching the level of late‑stage Refining Void!

"Eternal Dark Holy Image! Eradicate this beast!" the five roared in unison, the gray divine‑demon illusion raised a massive palm, its palm seeming to contain a starry sky on the brink of Silence Extinction, bearing terrifying power to crush all and bury everything, and slammed down fiercely at Han Wuxian!

This strike already exceeded the scope of mid‑stage Refining Void, locking all surrounding space, inescapable!

"Han Xiaoyou, be careful!" the Heaven Pivot Child clone shouted, trying to step forward to help, but was tightly entangled by another Eternal Dark Refining Void.

Yun Chen and the others also felt their hearts rise to their throats.

Facing this world‑shattering strike, Han Wuxian's eyes showed no fear, but instead ignited a blazing battle spirit!

"Holy Image? A false god! Today I'll show you what true... Silence Extinction Return‑to‑Void is!"

He let out a long howl, yet did not dodge or evade, but rose upward against the crushing pressure!

Within his dantian, the core of the primal star quivered at an unprecedented frequency, resonating perfectly with his newly formed Transformation God sword essence, the star‑patrol torch seal on his forehead, and his grasped Silence Extinction sword intent!

He grasped his sword with both hands, raising it above his head.

Endless gray‑white sword essence surged from his body, no longer a simple river form, but behind him coalesced into a towering, vague, ancient gray giant sword illusion!

This giant sword was not solid, but composed of countless tiny star births and deaths, spacetime fragments, and the ending images of law chains! It emitted a primal, absolute termination resonance that made even the Eternal Dark Holy Image tremble!

Han Wuxian merged his body with the sword, becoming one with the ancient gray giant sword illusion, transforming into an ultra‑condensed gray line that seemed able to cleave chaos and delineate the boundary of life and death, soaring against the heavens to slash the descending Holy Image's massive palm!

No sound.

No explosion.

Only a faint sound, like fabric being torn.

Under countless horrified gazes, that Eternal Dark Holy Image's massive palm, formed by the five great Refining Void formation and wielding late‑stage Refining Void power, at the instant it touched the gray line, split silently in two as if a hot knife cut through butter!

Immediately followed by arm, torso, and head!

The massive Holy Image illusion was, astonishingly, cleaved from head to toe into two halves by that seemingly slight gray line!

"Puff!"

"Impossible!!"

The five Eternal Dark Refining Void cultivators who formed the formation were as if struck by lightning, simultaneously spewing blood, the formation collapsing instantly, their aura withered to the extreme, their eyes filled with unparalleled shock and terror!

They could not comprehend! Gathering the power of five to summon the Holy Image, only to be shattered by a single sword of a Transformation God! What kind of monster is this?!

However, Han Wuxian's sword momentum did not cease!

The gray line that cleaved the Holy Image maintained its force, like the Grim Reaper's scythe, instantly sweeping over the two Refining Void early‑stage cultivators who suffered the heaviest backlash!

Those two early‑stage Refining Void cultivators didn't even have time to scream; their bodies silently split at the middle, the incision smooth as a mirror, and their Nascent Soul and divine spirit were instantly obliterated by the ultimate Return‑to‑Void sword intent, turning into void!

Form and spirit both extinguished!

One sword, slashing the Holy Image, killing Refining Void!

The whole venue fell into dead silence!

Whether Eternal Dark cultivators or Star Pivot Hall disciples, all were utterly stunned by this terrifying, unparalleled sword!

The remaining three Eternal Dark Refining Void cultivators were so frightened their souls fled, unable to care about any mission or star gate, they let out a monstrous cry, turned and attempted to tear space to flee!

"Now you want to leave? Too late!"

Han Wuxian's cold voice rang behind them like a death‑calling mantra.

His figure flickered, appearing behind the early‑stage Refining Void cultivator as if teleporting, and pointed like a sword, lightly indicating.

Pfft!

That early-stage Void Refining cultivator's protective spiritual light shattered like papier-mâché, the back of his head was pierced by a single finger, his soul and spirit instantly annihilated, his corpse limp and fell.

Immediately afterwards, he locked his gaze onto the two mid-stage Void Refining leaders who were fleeing desperately.
