As the two powers hovered on the brink of collision, Mi Ling’s voice pierced the air once again, cutting through the tension like cold arrows of eternal ice, unyielding to the fiery chaos around them.
"Soul Technique - Stellar Fate Severance," she declared with unwavering determination.
Her eyes and saber ignited with a mesmerizing display of seven vibrant colors, each hue representing a unique strand of destiny. Countless fate lines materialized around her, emanating from her very being. With unwavering focus, she channeled her soul power into the blade, causing the seven-colored rays to converge and vanish into the weapon. In an instant, a pulsating purple light enveloped the saber.
With meticulous precision, Mi Ling unleashed a swift swing, directing her blade towards the intricate lines that connected Kai. The saber effortlessly sliced through the interconnected threads, severing them with an otherworldly grace.
Kai’s eyes widened in a mix of astonishment and trepidation as a sense of foreboding gripped his being. Just as he prepared to unleash the full force of the devastating Abyssal Annihilation upon the multitude of attacks hurtling towards him, he noticed the manifestation of his power rapidly fading into oblivion, dissipating into nothingness before even making contact.
Without a moment of hesitation, he desperately attempted to burn his blood essence, prepared to sacrifice everything. However, to his utter dismay, something peculiar had occurred within his body’s qi circulation. As the realization washed over him, blood ominously trickled from his trembling lips.
He possessed a profound understanding of the phenomenon that plagued him - a backlash. Yet, the question lingered in his mind, shrouded in confusion: How could this have happened?
With deliberate precision, he retrieved the black mirror from his space ring, its glossy surface reflecting a sinister, otherworldly aura. Placing his palm against it, he exerted a gentle force. Suddenly, the mirror commenced a mesmerizing dance through the air, spinning with such incredible velocity that it blurred into nothingness, leaving only a lingering sense of unease.
In the blink of an eye, the overwhelming force of the Zodiac Convergence descended upon him. Each successive attack delivered a punishing impact, mercilessly pummeling his weakened form and leaving him reeling from their catastrophic power.

Kai’s body was engulfed in a cascading wave of celestial energy. The Aries flames consumed him, scorching his black scales and leaving him writhing in pain. The Taurus force crashed against him, battering his already weakened form and driving him to his knees. The icy touch of the Cancer beam sent a shudder through his body, sapping what little strength remained.
With each subsequent beam, Kai’s defense crumbled, unable to withstand the relentless onslaught. The Gemini beams entangled his limbs, restricting his movement and leaving him vulnerable. The Libra beam disrupted his balance, causing him to stumble and falter. The Sagittarius beam struck like an arrow, piercing through his dark armor with unyielding accuracy. And the Capricorn beam, a testament to fortitude, shattered his defensive capabilities, leaving him defenseless.
The combined force of the Zodiac Convergence crashed into Kai, sending him hurtling through the air. He crashed to the ground, his body broken and bloodied. Each breath became a struggle, the pain radiating through every fiber of his being. He lay on the edge of death, his strength rapidly fading.
Mi Ling stood towering over him, her presence commanding and impenetrable.
Kai, despite his battered state, couldn’t help but wear a mocking smirk upon his face.
"Why are you laughing?" Mi Ling’s voice cut through the air like shards of ice, devoid of any trace of empathy.
In response, Kai sneered at her, his voice dripping with disdain. "Do you honestly think that using these cheap tricks means you’ve won?"
Mi Ling’s lips curled into a contemptuous smile. "Cheap tricks?" she scoffed, her tone laced with smug superiority. "My Stellar Fate Severance has already severed your fate lines. There is no escape for you."
A flicker of surprise momentarily crossed Kai’s eyes, hidden beneath the facade of his smirk.
"Abyssal Transition."
Suddenly, his soul materialized outside of his body, untethering itself from the physical vessel. It shimmered ethereally, defying the laws of reality as it began to dissipate into nothingness.
Mi Ling’s narrowed eyes betrayed a mixture of curiosity and realization. "Foolish," she murmured, her voice low and disdainful. "I offered you a path to life, but you chose to throw yourself into the abyss instead."
With a graceful yet swift motion, Mi Ling raised her saber, its surface glowing with an otherworldly radiance. The saber illuminated her face, casting an ethereal, seven-colored glow against her cold expression. In one final swing, the saber descended upon Kai’s remaining fate lines, cutting them completely.
As the silence hung in the air, Mi Ling couldn’t help but shake her head. "Well, it doesn’t matter. With his death, Liang’s danger is finally eliminated."
Meanwhile, in the Common Road Realm.
Liang’s eyes flickered with thoughtful consideration as he gazed upon the Infernal Void Emperor. The man had just bestowed upon him two additional invaluable gifts.
Suddenly, a wave of anguish washed over Liang’s once deceitful face, draining the color from his cheeks. Agony gripped his every fiber, slashing through his very soul like a thousand jagged blades. His gasp for air turned into a wheezing cough, scarlet droplets of his life force escaping from his trembling lips.
In the midst of this strange scene, a portal materialized, causing the air to crackle with an otherworldly energy. From its ethereal depths emerged a blinding flash of luminosity, illuminating the surrounding darkness. As the brilliance faded, the source of this arrival was unveiled - a small, seemingly insignificant mirror.
Out of nowhere, the mirror accelerated towards him, propelled by an unseen force. Its glass surface seemed to liquefy, melding seamlessly with his body as they merged into an unnerving amalgamation. As this bizarre fusion took place, a rush of malevolence flooded his being, triggering an unparalleled surge of murderous intent. The atmosphere of this desolate realm, already heavy with an eerie stillness, grew even more oppressively dense as the ominous aura intensified its grip on everything around.
