***********************************

Luo Feng studied the Mountain of Destruction for a long time but couldn't find a way to obtain the other powers of the Abyss of Destruction.

"As the highest-level Mysterious Land, even a fraction of its power requires an extremely high threshold to access."

"Never mind, let's not dwell on the other six powers for now. I should focus on 'Controlling the Chaos Destruction Realm' first."

Luo Feng looked at the seven distant Sculptures. Even though the Realm Envoys at the lowest level were extremely powerful, he was still confident he could handle them.

His confidence lay in... The Destruction Fruits...

He hadn't yet exchanged any of the Destruction Fruits from the Mountain of Destruction for treasures!

As long as he exchanged them for treasures, his strength could still improve!

"The more Destruction Fruits I have, the better the treasures I can exchange them for." Luo Feng walked toward the seven Sculptures.

The Fourth Sculpture, the Immense Cube, gradually awakened, its aura rising and naturally locking onto Luo Feng.

Luo Feng already defeated the Third Sculpture last time by sheer luck.

However, facing the Fourth Sculpture had been a devastating defeat!

But now, he had comprehended the Hunyuan Blade Dao and created the Five Combat Techniques - which is naturally a complete transformation!

Before, his combat strength was on par with Shazhou's.

Now, he completely dominated Shazhou!

"Based on my previous encounter, I should be able to defeat the Fourth Sculpture." Luo Feng extended his hands, and fifty massive beams of condensed blade light shot out, naturally settling around him.

Each of these fifty colossal beams represented one percent of Luo Feng's energy reserves!

Together, they formed a super-destructive blade formation - "The Five Directions of Life and Death Reincarnation (Samsara) Killing Formation".

This was the most energy-intensive and powerful killing formation Luo Feng could unleash.

Once activated, the formation severed all connections between inside and outside.

"Boom!!!"

The Immense Cube instantly blurred into motion, attempting to break free from the blade formation's range.

"Kill!"

Luo Feng's will commanded.

The killing formation sprang into action.

Within the Five Directions of Life and Death Reincarnation Killing Formation...

Countless beams of blade light, as gentle as silk threads, bound and entangled the Immense Cube!

These razor-sharp, condensed blade lights, capable of slaying anything in their path, began to fracture the Immense Cube, causing it to split into 125 smaller cubes.

Other beams of blade light severed the life force, gradually weakening the vitality imbued in the Immense Cube by the Abyss of Destruction.

There was also an extreme piercing power...

Combined with the intermingling blade lights of life and death, it resembled gears grinding and tearing...

All these techniques, perfectly harmonized, operated in a continuous cycle, like reincarnation!

"Boom!"

The immense cube disintegrated and reformed at will. Even after being pierced and shattered into dozens of smaller cubes, it instantly regenerated, reforming into a complete, massive cube that crashed into the Blade Formation.

The impact of its sharp apex was terrifying.

Yet even if a single blade light of the formation was damaged, another would immediately fill the gap, sustained by Luo Feng himself.

The entire Blade Formation pulsed with vitality, simultaneously trapping the enemy and relentlessly besieging it with its overwhelming power.

Severing seventy or eighty small cubes?

Crushing countless others?

The formation's power was clearly superior!

Yet as long as even a single small cube remained intact, the damaged ones could all regenerate.

"I can't even destroy the Fourth Sculpture with this Killing Formation alone?" Luo Feng muttered in surprise.

With a swift motion, he gripped the Void-Severing Blade and stepped into the formation himself.

"Boom!"

Luo Feng struck.

As the Blade Formation unleashed its deadly embrace, a ferocious and terrifying blade light surged forth - this was the very essence of Luo Feng's close-quarters, all-destroying technique - "Destruction Blade Technique".

The Blade Formation's compact size was perfectly suited to the Destruction Blade Technique's full potential.

"Boom!"

The combined power of the Blade Formation and the Destruction Blade Technique surged, completely shattering all 125 cubes!

The moment they were all shattered, the energy core that had been shifting and transforming within the cubes was finally affected.

All the shattered fragments of the cubes dissolved into energy, flying back to coalesce into the original Immense Cube sculpture.

The Seven Sculptures remained calmly in the distance.

"It worked," Luo Feng said with a smile.

Had this attempt failed, he would have had to try combining the "Trapping Formation" with the "Origin Combat Technique."

Fortunately, the Killing Formation combined with the Destruction Blade Technique succeeded.

"Even though I master two Hunyuan-level Daos - Life and Death Dao and Blade Dao. It took nearly all my strength to defeat the Fourth Sculpture," Luo Feng said, looking at the remaining three sculptures, "The difficulty of passing the Sevenfold Trial is truly beyond comprehension."

"I'll try the Fifth Sculpture next, to see how much the gap has widened."

Luo Feng sensed his chances of success were slim, but he had to try.

.........

Fighting the fifth sculpture, the Black Star, went exactly as expected: a crushing defeat.

Luo Feng, however, wasn't bothered at all. A win would have been the real surprise!

"It's time to exchange for treasures."

Luo Feng approached the Mountain of Destruction and gently touched its surface.

Once again, waves of hatred, killing intent, resentment, and other emotions attacked him, along with a flood of memory fragments that battered his soul. He faced it all with calm composure.

After enduring the onslaught, Luo Feng received a stream of information:

"I can choose four Destruction Fruits, or exchange them for other treasures." He reviewed the vast array of options.

The rewards for one fruit, two fruits, three fruits, and four fruits flooded his mind.

Luo Feng remained cautious.

Once he exchanged the four fruits, he could only accumulate one or two more before controlling the Abyss of Destruction.

The treasures he could get later would pale in comparison to what he could acquire now.

"I need to exchange for treasures now. Only by relying on external aids can I defeat the Realm Envoy of the 34th Level in a short time." Luo Feng understood this well.

After mastering two Hunyuan-level Daos, he had reached a bottleneck. In the long years to come, advancing even a sliver through meditation and cultivation alone would be arduous.

Instead, relying on enhancements from the Mysterious Land, special weapons, and Secret Treasures offered a better path to improvement.

"Four fruits can only be exchanged for three treasures," Luo Feng sensed.

The three treasures were a black robe, a black sphere, and a sharp blade.

These were the most powerful weapons secret treasures nurtured by the Mountain of Destruction.

The black robe, once worn, would merge with the body, making it virtually indestructible!

According to Luo Feng's judgment, even the most ordinary Hunyuan Ancestor, once possessing the black robe, would have a physique rivaling that of Lord Wu Lan, the Bingfeng Hunyuan Ancestor, and others of their caliber.

The black sphere could transform into a Blackwater Domain! The domain's power was estimated to rival that of the Hunyuan Beast Ancestor's domain.

The sharp blade could change its form into any weapon, and contained an endless sharpness capable of slaying all matter and energy.

"The Mountain of Destruction's three most powerful secret treasures: a robe, a domain secret treasure, and a weapon," Luo Feng pondered.

Under normal circumstances, secret treasures of the same grade would typically be valued in the following order: domain secret treasures being the highest, defensive secret treasures next, and weapons being the lowest.

"The Mountain of Destruction should be most skilled at nurturing 'destruction'-type treasures," Luo Feng thought.

The information about the blade contained a key phrase: "Capable of slaying all matter and energy."

This information held profound implications.

Considering his Hunyuan Blade Dao...

"Then it's this one," Luo Feng decided, and with a single thought, he exchanged for the blade.

"Boom!"

The Mountain of Destruction trembled slightly, and a massive aura of destruction surged skyward. Within this terrifying aura of destruction was the blade, soaring upward and flying toward Luo Feng.

Luo Feng extended his hand, and the blade appeared. This weapon had no hilt, its entire surface sharp and razor-like.

However, as Luo Feng focused his will, the blade naturally transformed, ultimately taking the shape of his favourite "Blood Dhadow Blade".

Gripping this supreme weapon forged from the Mountain of Destruction, Luo Feng felt a sudden sense of nostalgia, as if he had returned to his youth, training with the "Blood Shadow Blade" in the martial arts hall.

"Blood Shadow Blade," he murmured with a faint smile, "for the endless ages to come, you shall be my constant companion."

All treasures obtainable from the Mountain of Destruction shared a common flaw: they had to be carried on one's person at all times.

Whether it was the feeble Mysterious Land, the form of an embryo, which could be exchanged for three Destruction Fruits; the most powerful Secret Treasure, which required four fruits; or even Kafuxiu's war armor, which could be obtained for a single fruit - all must be carried at all times.

In life-or-death combat, there was always the risk of one's body being shattered, allowing the treasure to be stolen.

"With my blade technique and this Blood Shadow Blade, I can slash through anything in my path. No one can stop me," Luo Feng declared confidently.

He was certain that even if faced with a hundred Hunyuan Ancestors besieging him, he could still carve a path through them.

"It's time to venture to the 34th Level of the Abyss of Destruction and test the true power of this Blood Shadow Blade."

With a single thought, Luo Feng traversed time and space, leaving the Mountain of Destruction behind.

..........

The 34th and final level of the Abyss of Destruction was once again enveloped by the Domain of Life and Death.

The Realm Envoy coalesced into its hooded form.

"You've come," the hooded figure said, its gaze fixed on Luo Feng and the Blood Shadow Blade in his hand.

This was the most formidable blade forged within the Abyss of Destruction, one of the Three Poles of the Infinite Hunyuan Space.

The hooded figure knew well that this weapon possessed an unimaginable sharpness. Only those sufficiently powerful could claim it from the Abyss and earn its recognition.

"Your strength is formidable. As a sign of respect, I exchanged it for this weapon at the Mountain of Destruction," Luo Feng said.

"Good," the hooded figure nodded slightly.

"Whoosh."

Its majestic form dissolved into boundless black mist, enveloping the vast expanse and Luo Feng himself. The black mist condensed into countless streams of Blackwater, pressing down on Luo Feng from all directions.

"Buzz-"

Luo Feng merged with the blade, transforming into a razor-sharp arc of condensed light.

At the heart of this luminous edge lay the Blood Shadow Blade itself.

"Swish!"

Compared to last time, Luo Feng felt far less resistance. The Blackwater seemed to be actively avoiding the Blood Shadow Blade.

The blade's edge, inherently capable of slaying all matter and energy, was now wielded by someone who mastered two Hunyuan Daos and was burning thirty percent of his energy reserves.

Wherever the blade's light passed, everything split in two.

Even the chains, formed from condensed strands, silently rifted under its glare.

"Slaying all things - this is the true meaning of 'Slaying all things' - Nothing in existence can withstand my blade." Luo Feng marveled.

He was well aware that merely splitting things in two wouldn't be fatal to Hunyuan Ancestors or Lords, but it would still have a profound impact.

"Boom!"

The Blackwater couldn't stop it, the chains couldn't intercept it, and now a towering figure stood before the Blood Shadow Blade - the formidable body of a Realm Envoy.

"Pfft!"

The blade's light flashed, piercing through the Realm Envoy's body in an instant.

"This--" The Realm Envoy watched helplessly.

Lord Luo Feng's already terrifying strength, combined with that razor-sharp blade, was simply unstoppable.

Luo Feng, now a streak of blade light, had already reached the Phantom Origin.

He found it all too easy.

When exchanging for treasures, Luo Feng chose this razor-sharp blade among the three options. Partly to enhance his already formidable skills, and partly because he feared that the Domain Secret Treasure might be weaker than the Realm Envoy's Domain.

The Robe Secret Treasure only enhanced his defensive capabilities, and he worried that these two alone might not help him refine and control the 34th Level.

"The profound art of slaying all things, paired with the supreme weapon that can slay all things." A thought even crossed Luo Feng's mind: "I wonder if my blade could cleave the Chu Shi Hunyuan Ancestor in one slash, splitting him in two."

In a joyful state of mind, Luo Feng effortlessly imprinted this thought onto the Phantom Origin.

The moment of imprinting-

"Boom!"

Luo Feng sensed the true nature of the entire Abyss of Destruction.

He saw the outer layer, the "True World"- the 34th Level; Chaos Destruction Realm!

This was the layer most easily explored by the Hunyuan Ancestors and Lords.

He also saw the inner layer, the "Spiritual World"- the Sea of Destruction! Formed by the accumulated negative spiritual energy of all living beings in the Infinite Hunyuan Space over countless ages, it had coalesced into this terrifying Sea of Destruction.

And he saw the core layer - the Mountain of Destruction.

At this moment, as the master of the outer layer, the Chaos Destruction Realm, Luo Feng sensed the myriad forces of the Infinite Hunyuan Space.
