Qin Ruqing’s entire body began to radiate purple-golden flames.

This was a new ability evolved from her Dao Physique’s complete form, combining Purple Lightning Thunder Fire and Golden Mist Soul Fire into what she called Life Flame.

This flame had the characteristic of being “alive,” capable of self-repair and restoration, and could be used as an energy unit like spiritual energy.

This meant she could use the flame and spiritual energy as battle resources, and with the flame’s self-restoring feature, theoretically, she could ignore energy consumption and supply endlessly.

Of course, ideal conditions are often just that—ideal.

In real battle, her level of attack requires more than just spiritual energy.

Spiritual energy is only one basic component.

The spiritual power, soul power, and rule power reserves would limit her performance.

The Myriad of All Domain she used involved spiritual power and rule power.

The Fang Clan ancestor’s sword shadows essentially employed spatial laws.

To restrict him, Qin Ruqing had to consume rule power and also possess a certain understanding of temporal and spatial laws.

Five breaths—this was the maximum duration she could restrict him with the activation of her Life Flame.

Any longer, and she would need to burn her own essence blood.

Qin Ruqing pondered, and a gigantic lotus shadow appeared behind her.

Even with the enhancement of the Domain of All Things, the time she could restrict the Fang Clan ancestor was limited.

Once the time limit was exceeded, the Fang Clan ancestor would be able to traverse through countless sword shadows, and with his Transformation(Transcending) Stsge power, Qin Ruqing would quickly fall into a disadvantage.

Therefore, to counter this technique, she needed to destroy all these sword shadows at once.

Naturally, the new divine power she obtained after advancing her Dao Physique, the Thousand Lotus Transformation Seal, came to her mind.

As the name suggested, it could manifest a thousand lotus seals.

The number of lotus seals was limited by her current strength, and each seal could be connected or released individually.

When connected, they could overlap layer by layer, with the final power capable of overturning mountains and filling seas.

This was a truly straightforward and brutal large-scale destructive spell, balancing single-target and area attacks.

To destroy the myriad sword shadows created by a Transcending (Transformation) Stage Ancestor all at once, the Thousand Lotus Transformation Seal might be the most effective method.

The lotus shadow behind Qin Ruqing slightly trembled.

Under the solemn gaze of the Fang Clan ancestor, countless small lotus petals were manifested, positioned right behind the sword shadows.

Four breaths!

The Fang Clan ancestor felt a threatening force among the countless lotus petals.

His breathing grew heavy as he tried to calm his inner fire and resist the unknown soul-burning effect in the realm.

However, this was precisely the eerie and formidable aspect of Qin Ruqing’s talent.

The realm she cast could genuinely affect a Transcending Stage powerhouse. If he did not resist, the unknown inner fire in the realm would not only burn his soul but also scorch his essence blood!

In the time it took for the previous attack, the Fang Clan ancestor clearly felt the loss of vitality, which made him take it seriously.

He urgently defended himself, giving Qin Ruqing an opportunity.

Three breaths—no, two breaths! The Fang Clan elder quickly calculated in his mind.

As long as he had two breaths, he could completely break free from this strange realm’s control.

Three breaths had passed.

Qin Ruqing appeared calm but quickly formed a hand seal.

The space trembled, and a terrifying atmosphere pervaded, like oil heated to its limit, with thick smoke rising.

Just a tiny drop of water could instantly stir up a boiling turmoil.

The word “explode” lightly uttered from Qin Ruqing’s red lips was like that drop of cold water into the boiling oil.

In that instant, the world trembled.

The Fang Clan ancestor suddenly spat out blood.

The sword shadows were destroyed, and he suffered a significant backlash.

Two breaths!

The Fang Clan ancestor’s throat was like a worn-out bellows, gasping heavily.

The sound indicated his furious rage and murderous intent.

Qin Ruqing’s face turned pale instantly, as if something had been drained from her body, and her aura showed a moment of vulnerability.

Yet, she remained calm, her eyes devoid of emotion.

In this rapid battle, her mind functioned like a precision instrument, entirely detached from unnecessary feelings.

The purple-gold flames encased her like armor, and the power of wind and thunder enhanced her speed and explosiveness.

Qin Ruqing drew a sword from the flames and, with the power to split stars and slay moons, stabbed at the Fang Clan ancestor.

One breath!

The Fang Clan ancestor felt he could already break free from the realm’s influence but still needed time to completely escape.

This Transcending(Transformation) Stage old monster felt the threat to his life again after over a hundred years.

Not daring to hold back, he bit his tongue and immediately summoned a cloud of blood mist, which he sprayed onto the broken sword.

The broken sword absorbed the blood, and its dark red body suddenly brightened, as if something had been activated.

A shadowy light group emerged from the sword and quickly entered the old monster’s body.

His eyes instantly filled with blood, and his demeanor changed drastically.

This scene was extremely eerie but did not stop Qin Ruqing’s attack.

In the final breath of the Domain of All Things, with absolute level of mastery, and the Dao Physique pushed to its limit, her blood was slightly boiling.

Qin Ruqing aimed to challenge her limits once more.

Holding the fire sword, she collided forcefully with the Fang Clan ancestor’s dark red broken sword.

There was no sound, but the tremendous energy clash created a shockwave that instantly toppled a row of towering ancient trees.

Qin Ruqing sensed two powerful auras approaching from other directions; they were likely other members of the Fang Clan.

Her heart remained calm, and she delivered another powerful attack.

Five breaths had passed, and the Fang Clan ancestor had completely freed himself from the realm’s constraints.

He released an impatient and triumphant long howl, his intense anger causing him to spit another mouthful of blood onto the sword.

He was determined to kill this Qin little pest in one go!

The Fang ancestor thought that without the realm’s restriction, and with the ancient divine weapon in hand, he should be able to subdue the little pest quickly.

Unexpectedly, she still managed to hold her own in direct combat with him and even managed not to fall behind!

The fire sword, although seemingly without a physical body, possessed sharpness comparable to a divine weapon.

Each collision made him feel a shock in his chest, and if not for his powerful Trancending Stage body, ordinary people would have been injured internally from such impacts.

The Fang ancestor was utterly baffled.

Qin Ruqing wouldn’t reveal to him that this was the second stage of the Absolute Realm, known as Breaking Edge.

The first stage of the Absolute Realm was aggressive and relentless, full of sharpness.

In the second stage, it became even more formidable and unstoppable.

Qin Ruqing found it hard to describe but likened it to terms from her previous life’s games—Judgment and Overpower.

In the second stage of the Absolute Realm, she could deliver judgment effects to her enemies.

She sensed that when the enemy’s “health” dropped to a certain level, she might have a chance for a guaranteed kill.

Overpower was achieved by burning her essence blood and Life Flame, significantly enhancing her combat ability.

In this special state, she could ignore pain and maintain high combat efficiency with every strike.

With her blood boiling and no sense of fatigue, Qin Ruqing felt a surge of new understanding.

She believed she could become even stronger!

Her body still held even greater power she had yet to discover or utilize.

The ancient weapon spirit of the Lu family once told her, “You already have the conditions to greatly surpass your current level of power, but you are ignorant and unable to use your hidden treasures effectively—you should seek systematic methods to harness these primordial forces.”

Primordial forces… primordial forces!

Qin Ruqing swung her sword with a fervent resolve, trying to tap into this rare and extreme state to find that thread of primordial power.

Unknowingly, her eyes began to glint with a golden hue.

While Qin Ruqing was absorbed in her battle, the Fang ancestor was filled with terror.

He couldn’t understand why a young girl could fight him so fiercely.

Despite summoning the remnants of an ancient divine weapon and using blood sacrifices, as well as being a Transcending Stage ancestor, he was struggling.

Why was he still being pushed to such a point?

He began to remember the two other Fang elders sent to scout other directions.

Initially, he had not expected much from them, but now, facing his own difficulty, he wished they would have arrived to support him, even if just as cannon fodder.

Perhaps they could divert Qin Ruqing’s attention and give him a chance to turn the tide!

The Fang ancestor’s thoughts raced, but his heart sank as he sensed the energy of the divine remnant depleting.

Even with the ancient spirit’s help, even a Transcensing Stage’s energy had its limits.

He was perplexed by Qin Ruqing’s seemingly endless energy and her increasing strength.

How could such a monster, who seemed to grow stronger the more they fought, have been provoked by the Fang family?

For the first time, the Fang ancestor felt uncontrollable fear—a fear born from confronting the terrifying potential of the enemy.

Qin Ruqing sensed this fear.

To her, the enemy seemed to have suddenly exposed a vulnerable spot, laid bare before her.

Her blood was boiling, and the heat was becoming uncomfortable.

She eagerly wanted to unleash it through this opening.

Qin Ruqing knew the moment for Judgment had arrived.

The very next second, her heart pounded heavily, and a surge of vast energy spread from her chest throughout her body.

Qin Ruqing had never felt so fulfilled or so powerful.

This was the moment!

She swung her sword down!

---

The Song family’s Third Elder, who had been summoned by Qin Ruqing’s message, had been lying in ambush and witnessed this incredible battle.

He saw the head of the Transformation Stage ancestor being severed by Qin Ruqing’s sword.

Terrified, he collapsed to the ground.

Qin Ruqing felt a warm flow on her hand and a metallic taste in her mouth—that was blood.

The blood of her defeated enemy.

It felt exhilarating.

While she reveled in her triumph, her mind was also filled with confusion.

She knew the battle was over, that she had succeeded.

She felt exhausted and had a myriad of emotions.

She wanted to sit down and reflect on the battle, exploring the unique energy that flowed from her heart.

But sensing the surroundings, she noticed that the ancestors and the three aunts were severely injured and unconscious.

There were also two remaining Fang elders, and…

Qin Ruqing suddenly turned her gaze to a direction and smiled.

“Third Elder Song, long time no see. How have you been?”

As she spoke, she held up the bloodied head of the Fang ancestor.

Third Elder Song, weakened, rose from the ground and awkwardly bowed towards Qin Ruqing, his expression stiff.

Qin Ruqing continued smiling, her voice clear:

“Did Elder record the recent battle? If so, please help spread it—”

“Throughout the Four Domains!”

As these words floated through the air, Third Elder Song felt his blood freeze.

He seemed to see a creature from ancient times or be trapped in an unending nightmare.

Without a response, Qin Ruqing lightly said, “Or perhaps the Song family is not willing to take on this business?”

Third Elder Song snapped back to reality, his forehead sweating.

He quickly took out a glowing recording stone, holding it reverently before his forehead.

“It’s all recorded.”

“And the business…”

“The Song family will take it!”
