Chapter 12541 All Things Return to Nothingness
"This method is called the Method of Returning All Things to Nothingness. It is derived from the cycle of reincarnation. It is something I comprehended from the cycle of reincarnation and can cause all things to return to nothingness and vanish."

Haotian Lanshen explained.

"The Myriad Phenomena Return to Nothingness Technique? I seem to recall seeing Emperor Golden Feather use it before."

Ye Chen's heart stirred. He remembered that when he broke with Emperor Jin Yu, the other party seemed to have used this technique.

"Hmm, it's most likely because when I perished back then, Emperor Jinyu stole my magic."

"However, this technique can only unleash its full power by relying on the cycle of reincarnation."

"Why don't you try cultivating it?"

Haotianlan Shinto.

"it is good!"

Ye Chen calmed himself down and began to comprehend the techniques in the jade slip. He quickly and thoroughly understood the Myriad Manifestations Return to Nothingness Technique.

"All things return to nothingness, and all heavens are extinguished!"

He took a step forward and attempted to cast a spell. A black vortex was born from beneath his feet, and an aura of world destruction erupted instantly. The thunderous roar was as if all the gods and demons were chanting together.

A radiation wave, akin to the end of the world, swept across the starry sky, shredding and crushing all the stars within hundreds of light-years. A terrifying cyclical energy was released, and all things in heaven and earth seemed to be reduced to nothingness.

Fu Jin and Chen Xi, impacted by the Wanxiang Guixu Law, felt their breathing become suffocated. Ye Chen took them back to the Samsara Graveyard to prevent them from getting hurt.

The soul body of Haotian Lanshen stood beside Ye Chen, completely unmoved and unaffected by the Myriad Manifestations Return to Nothingness Technique.

Seeing the shattered and annihilated stars, he nodded in satisfaction and said, "Not bad, Ye Chen, your comprehension is extraordinary. You can grasp all kinds of techniques at a glance."

Ye Chen smiled helplessly and said, "Senior, but even the Myriad Manifestations Return to Nothingness Method cannot shake the Seed of the End of Calamity."

He tried to apply the power of the Void of All Things to himself in an attempt to suppress the seed of doom within his body, but to no avail.

That ultimate calamity remains like a time bomb, waiting for the future to arrive before it explodes completely and engulfs Ye Chen.

"Can't even provide relief?"

Haotian Lanshen was shocked, never expecting that the power of the End of Calamity Seed was so terrifying.

He paused, looked at the vast starry sky, and said, "Then it seems that the only option is to try to solve this Heavenly Chess Game."

"Although it's dangerous, if we can successfully crack one or two corners, we can reap enormous benefits."

Ye Chen's heart stirred, and he asked, "The Heaven-Asking Chess Game? Just what is the origin of this Heaven-Asking Chess Game?"

He also looked at the vast starry sky, this infinitely diverse universe, deep and mysterious. He could vaguely see two ancient and powerful remnants, which he thought were the traces of the beginning and the abyss.

Behind this infinitely diverse starry sky, there seems to be an even more mysterious and profound power!
"This is a game of chess between the beginning and the abyss, well, you could call it a little game between them."

Haotian Lanshen pondered for a moment and said.

"A mini-game?"

Ye Chen was stunned. Looking at the magnificent starry sky, he couldn't connect it with the word "mini-game".

Haotian Lan said, "In the beginning, the Dao was divided into Yin and Yang. The Primordial God was the Yang God, and the Abyss was the Yin God. Yin and Yang were clearly distinct, yet they circulated and flowed endlessly, giving rise to countless worlds."

"The world was born from Yang and ended with Yin. In the beginning, neither the Primordial Heaven nor the Abyss interfered with the world, allowing the worlds to live and die on their own."

"In the endless hours, they sometimes play little games to pass the time."

"This 'Quest for Heaven' chess game is a game they played, using the infinitely diverse universe as the chessboard and the endless sun, moon and stars as the pieces, playing against each other."

"Uh..." Ye Chen was stunned. So this Heavenly Chess Game was just a little game between the Primordial Beginning and the Abyss?
Using the endless starry sky as the chessboard and the sun, moon and stars as the chess pieces, this little game is far too big!
"Of course, the mini-games of the Primordial Era and the Abyss are an incredibly grand existence for us."

"I had heard some legends about the Heavenly Chess Game before, but I wasn't very clear about them. Now that I have devoured the flesh and blood of the Coral Sea Nightmare Beast and read through some of its memories, I know more details."

"The chess game in the Yin-Yang Palace of the Star Sea should be a projection; the real chess game is outside the world."

Haotian Lan Shen focused intently on reviewing the memories in his mind and said.

"Such a large chessboard, it turns out to be just a projection?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Chen gasped. Just how vast would the real chessboard be?

But for the Primordial Beginning and the Abyss, this grand scheme was merely a small game.

Just how terrifying are these two supreme powers?

Haotian Lan said, "Yes, it's just a projection. The power of the Primordial Beginning and the Abyss is beyond our imagination."

"Fortunately, they are competing and vying with each other, and for the time being, they cannot spare any power to project onto the other side of the starry sky. Otherwise, the other side of the starry sky and the space-time of nothingness would have collapsed long ago."

After a pause, Haotian Lanshen said again, "Forget it, let's not worry about them for now. The Heavenly Questioning Chess Game is almost over, with only the endgame remaining."

"This game is ingenious. The chessboard is actually suspended above the Yin-Yang Dao and connected to the Dao."

"If you can solve the game, you will receive the reward of the Great Dao, be imbued with Dao energy, and enjoy endless benefits."

The core of the world's existence, its fundamental essence, is the Dao of Yin and Yang. All things in the heavens, including the Primordial Era and the Abyss, were born from the Dao of Yin and Yang.

The Great Dao has form, resembling the Yin-Yang and Eight Trigrams totem, vast and boundless, containing inexhaustible energy and spiritual power.

If one could receive the rewards of the Great Dao and have the Dao Qi bestowed upon them, there would naturally be immense benefits.

"Is it a reward from the Great Dao, where Dao energy bestows upon one?"

Ye Chen's eyes brightened slightly, as if he had caught a glimmer of hope.

Haotian Lan said, "The Great Dao is boundless. Every inch forward brings its own joy. You can try to solve this chess game. You don't have to solve it completely. As long as you can solve the life and death problems of one or two corners, you will receive the reward of the Great Dao."

"The Daoist energy might be able to avert your ultimate calamity."

Ye Chen's heart stirred again, and he asked, "What would happen if the game were completely solved?"

Haotian Lan said, "Completely crack it? That's unrealistic and unlikely."

"Disciples of the Xinghai Yin Yang Palace have devoted themselves to solving the game, and many people have paid with their lives for it."

"Even if the Palace Master of the Yin-Yang Palace of the Star Sea, Qianluo Zhenjun, poured all his heart and soul into the chessboard, he would still not be able to completely solve the game."

"Don't be too delusional. Even being able to solve one or two corner pieces would be of great benefit to you."

The many changes that occurred in the Yin-Yang Star Sea were all due to the death of Qianluo Zhenjun and the loss of the Star Sea Destiny Orbit Plate.

Qianluo Zhenjun died in order to solve the Heavenly Chess Game!

Ye Chen asked, "What if it's truly completely cracked?"

He was curious to know what would happen if the game were actually solved.

Haotian Lan Shen thought for a moment and said, "If we can truly solve the game completely, the reward from the Great Dao will be enough to create a Great Dao artifact."

Ye Chen asked, "The Great Dao creates things?"

Haotian Lan said, "Hmm, it's a Great Dao creation on par with the Starry Sky Dao Book, but that's impossible. Even if I were to join in and exhaust all my efforts, I still wouldn't be able to break this game."

Ye Chen's eyes lit up. Legend has it that when a person's desire is strong enough, it may touch the Great Dao and thus create something from the Great Dao.

Solving the Heavenly Chess Formation will bring rewards from the Great Dao, granting one Dao energy. If the Dao energy is sufficiently concentrated, it can ignite one's own desires, making those desires come true and giving birth to creations of the Great Dao.

"I'll give it a try!"

Ye Chen felt a strong interest rising in his heart. Although he knew that he was unlikely to completely solve the game, it wouldn't hurt to give it a try.

Haotian Lanshen solemnly said, "Be careful, don't get too carried away!"

"Even if this game of chess is reduced to an unfinished state, it is still vast and endless. Even someone as powerful as True Lord Qianluo has exhausted his efforts. You must not become obsessed with it!"

"I will protect you. If anything happens to you, I will immediately sever your connection with the game!"

As he spoke, Haotian Lan Shen pulled out the Heavenly Emperor Divine Sword from the Reincarnation Graveyard with his palm, held it in his hand, and stood guard beside Ye Chen.

Ye Chen sat down cross-legged, released his divine sense to communicate with the starry sky, and tried to decipher this game.

Haotian Lanshen stood guard by Ye Chen's side, watching him intently. If Ye Chen showed any sign of something amiss, he would immediately sever Ye Chen's connection with the chess game with his sword to prevent Ye Chen from falling into depravity.

Ye Chen's spirit communicated with the starry sky, and soon his entire consciousness was immersed in the starry sky, giving him a feeling of floating away from the world, as if he had ascended to godhood.

He saw ancient celestial visions, the beginning of time and the abyss, a game played with the universe as the chessboard and the stars as the pieces.

Upon closer inspection, in this infinite multiverse, every star is surrounded by a wisp of energy, whether it be yin or yang.

The yin star represents the black pieces, and the yang star represents the white pieces. The chessboard is so vast that calculating the life and death, gains and losses of the entire game would be enough to overwhelm a person's brain.

But for the Primordial Beginning and the Abyss, such a grand chessboard was merely a small game.

Layer upon layer of starry sky. Compared to the boundless universe, the sun, moon and stars are very sparse. The universe is so vast that even if you flew straight from one end of the universe to the other, you would not collide with any star along the way.

Because many stars were annihilated in the fierce battles of the game of chess.

The remaining stars are the pieces in the endgame.

Ye Chen and Haotian Lanshen were in a certain layer of starry sky. This was the territory where the black chess pieces and the white flag were competing. The territory was basically set, but some corners were still undecided.

Ye Chen played chess against himself, deducing the course of the game. Using the stars as pieces, he made the best solution he could think of for each move.

In just one hour, Ye Chen completed the deduction and game of this chess game in the starry sky.

But he could only focus on a corner, not the whole game, because the infinitely diverse starry sky, with its layers of universes stacked upon each other, was simply too vast for him to see the whole picture.

Unless he can master the laws of space, he will not be able to overlook the entire game.

After completing this game of chess in the starry sky, Ye Chen felt a mysterious yin-yang aura appear out of nowhere, descending upon him like a sudden enlightenment.

His cultivation level broke through instantly, advancing to the middle stage of the sixth level of the Abyss Realm.

"The Great Dao has bestowed its reward; with the Dao's energy upon you, how do you feel?"

Upon seeing this, Haotian Lanshen quickly asked.

Ye Chen sensed his body and found that his cultivation had broken through, but the final calamity seed was still pitch black and stubborn, showing no signs of being shaken.

He frowned and said, "No, this little bit of Dao energy is not enough to resolve the seed of the final calamity."

Haotian Lan sighed and said, "Then let's continue."

Ye Chen nodded and continued playing the game, his mind leaping to another layer of starry sky to play chess there.

With his current cultivation level, he could solve the chess game of one layer of the starry sky in two or three hours at most.

As he cracked the barriers layer by layer, he continuously received rewards from the Great Dao, and his cultivation level broke through one after another, soon advancing to the peak of the sixth level of the Abyss Realm.

However, after reaching the peak of the sixth level of the Heavenly Realm, he could no longer make progress. Although he had accumulated enough spiritual energy, an obstacle appeared in front of him, preventing him from continuing to break through.

That's a boundary barrier!

The next step is the seventh level of the Abyss Realm, which is the later stage of the Abyss Realm. To advance to the later stage of a realm, one will face a realm barrier. One must break through the realm barrier in order to make further progress!
The most effective way to break through the barrier between realms is through combat!

Intense battles can break through the barriers between realms.

Ye Chen is currently engaged in a game of chess, so there is naturally no life-or-death battle for him to break through his current realm.

He was not impatient. He allowed the Dao Qi and spiritual essence bestowed upon him by the Great Dao to settle deep within his flesh and blood meridians, thus solidifying his Dao foundation.

Ye Chen didn't know how many layers of the Starry Sky Chess Game he had solved. In the blink of an eye, ten days had passed, but the final calamity was still severe, showing no signs of being resolved.

"It doesn't seem like it will work!"

Ye Chen's heart sank, and he addressed Haotian Lan Shen.

If given enough time, he could unravel the Starry Sky Chess Game layer by layer, continuously receiving rewards from the Great Dao, and one day, he would be able to resolve all calamities.

The problem is, the final scourge is about to explode in a few days, and time is of the essence.

The final calamity is far more serious than the Great Calamity of Burning Heaven. The Great Calamity of Burning Heaven can be resolved using the Mutual Word Technique and the Heavenly Word Technique, but the backlash of the final calamity is not so easy to resolve and harmonize.

The aura of that dark backlash solidified into a seed of calamity, incredibly stubborn, like a malignant tumor that Ye Chen simply couldn't get rid of.

"It's not that it's impossible, it's that time waits for no one."

Haotian Lanshen's expression was grave. He could see that relying on solving the Heavenly Chess Formation to obtain the Great Dao reward and then use that to resolve the calamity was a viable path.

Ye Chen's Dao heart is very strong. Ten days have passed, and his spirit has not been lost in the game of chess. If it were someone else, they would have been swallowed up by the vast and endless starry sky long ago.

But the problem is, Ye Chen doesn't have time.

The seed of doom is about to explode.

"Fine, try cultivating the Qian character technique. If that doesn't work, then I'll have no choice but to slay the God of Hope and the God of Miracles and forcibly use their divine blood to give you a new life!"

Haotian Lanshen brandished the Heavenly Emperor Divine Sword, a hint of killing intent flashing in his eyes.

If it really comes to a last resort, he will have no choice but to kill Chenxi and Fujin and use their divine authority to support Ye Chen's rebirth.

Ye Chen said urgently, "No!"

Haotian Lan said, "Then you should try to cultivate the Qian Character Technique. This is the last resort!"

As he spoke, he cut his palm, and blood gushed out, gathering and condensing until it finally turned into a blood bead.

On the blood droplet was the character "乾" (Qian).

"The secret formula of the character '乾'?"

Ye Chen looked at the character "Qian" on the blood bead, his eyes narrowing slightly as he sensed something extraordinary.

Haotian Lan said, "Yes, the Yin Yang Divine Dao Sect has the Yin Yang Eight Character Formula, which is their core Dao technique and the top reward for the future Ten Thousand Sects Conference."

"They have eight branches, similar to the eight sub-hall of the Temple of the End. These eight branches correspond to the Yin-Yang Eight Trigrams. This Star Sea Yin-Yang Palace is located in the Qian Trigram and is in charge of the Qian Character Technique."

"I obtained the secret of the Qian character technique from the memories of that Coral Sea Nightmare Beast."

"However, the Yin-Yang Eight Character Formula must be practiced in conjunction with the internal energy cultivation method of the Yin-Yang Divine Path Sect. Without the matching internal energy cultivation method, it is easy to go into qi deviation if you force yourself to practice it."

The Yin-Yang Eight-Character Formula is the core secret technique of the Yin-Yang Divine Path Sect. Now, Haotian Lan Shen casually manifested the character "Qian" because the outward manifestation of the formula is actually not important.

The most important thing is the accompanying internal energy cultivation method!

Without the corresponding internal energy cultivation method, forcibly practicing the Yin-Yang Eight Character Formula will only lead to qi deviation and demonic possession.

Even though he inherited the Qian character technique from the memories of the Coral Sea Nightmare Beast, Haotian Lanshen did not rashly cultivate it, for fear of going astray and becoming possessed by evil spirits.

However, he thought that Ye Chen had high comprehension and profound Dao knowledge, and was backed by many divine powers, so he might be able to ignore the risks and forcibly cultivate the Qian character technique.

On the other hand, Ye Chen possesses the Yin-Yang Reincarnation Dao, which is unprecedented in history. If he cultivates the Qian Character Technique, he will trigger Yin and Yang. Once the Yin-Yang Reincarnation Dao collapses, Ye Chen will surely die.

Haotian Lanshen couldn't care less about anything else now. If he wanted to eliminate Ye Chen's ultimate calamity, he had no choice but to take a risky approach.

Looking at the character "乾" on the blood bead, Ye Chen felt the endless mysteries of the Great Dao, and also felt boundless danger.

"I'll give it a try!"

Ye Chen's expression was solemn. After thinking it over for a while, he stopped hesitating and took the blood bead of the Qian character technique.

"Father, I wish you well!"

Fu Jin clasped her hands together and prayed for Ye Chen.

Chenxi also said, "Ye Chen, there is hope. If all else fails, then as the Great Storm God said, kill me and use my divine blood to give you a new life!"

Ye Chen said, "No need, I have a way!"

Looking at the blood bead of the Qian character in his hand, he had a sudden inspiration and thought of a solution that, while not brilliant, should be feasible.

Chen Xi was stunned. She saw Ye Chen holding the blood bead in his hand and melting it in his palm.

Then, a powerful aura burst forth from Ye Chen's body, an aura of "heaven".

Qian represents Heaven!
