The Quest for Immortality

”I admit I can’t kill you, but you should also know, you can’t kill me either.”

”My Divine Soul originates from the Master of the Great Wilderness;”

”My existence spans tens of thousands of years;”

”My will, exists eternally within the Divine Way.”

”Once the Divine Fetus is formed, it is a seed of an Evil Path deity, just like the Evil God, undying and immortal...”

”This is my last time advising you, and it’s also the last chance I bestow upon you...”

The Evil Baby’s face showed an irresistible majesty:

”Surrender to me, and you will receive the gift of immortality; otherwise, you will surely fall into three thousand purgatories, your Divine Soul utterly destroyed!”

Mo Hua casually said, ”I’ve already told you, I can submit to you, but you must give me some Divine Marrow to ’eat’ every day. You can’t bear to give up your Divine Marrow, and yet you want me to serve you for nothing, how could there be such a good thing?”

The Evil Baby’s face was filled with killing intent. ”Too greedy, stubborn and wrongheaded.”

It lost its patience, let out a chilling wail, and transformed into a semi-mature horned demon general, carrying a sinister wind, lunging at Mo Hua.

Mo Hua gripped with his right hand, congealing a Golden Sword, and charged up as well.

One person, one demon.

A demigod, and an Evil God, thus engaged in a fierce battle again within Mo Hua’s Sea of Consciousness.

For a time, demonic qi ran rampant, and Sword Qi danced wildly.

However, Mo Hua’s Divine Soul was injured, and his Divine Thought was insufficient.

The Evil Baby was not in good condition either, first being blasted by Mo Hua’s Li Mountain Fire Cremation Compound Formation, then intimidated by the Soul-shocking Sword, and finally pierced through the head by the Transforming Sword Skill, its injuries wouldn’t be lighter than Mo Hua’s.

Both sides were wounded, thus the scale of the fight was much smaller than before, but the peril was greater.

Finally, it is unknown how many rounds of fierce battle ensued.

Mo Hua, proficient in Divine Thought Skill, Formation, and Divine Thought into Sword, was indeed superior to the nascent Divine Fetus.

He exhausted the Divine Thought of the Divine Fetus, bound it with the Water Prison Technique, restrained it with the Golden Lock Formation, and then dealt with it little by little. ŘἈŊŏʙĘs

First with the Water and Fire Five Elements Skill.

Then the Five Elements Eight Trigrams Formation.

After that, the Divine Thought into sword True Jue.

Mo Hua used all sorts of means, one by one, on the Evil Baby.

When his Divine Thought was exhausted, Mo Hua would sit in meditation, recover a bit, then continue employing spells, formations, and sword techniques together, to ’torment’ the horned Evil Embryo.

He wanted to experiment to see if, without relying on external objects, he could purely rely on his own Divine Thought Power to inflict ’destructive’ harm on the ’Divine Fetus’ that was close to the Evil God’s origin.

But, as expected, he failed.

With the Divine Thought Techniques he currently mastered, even using all his means, he could at most eliminate the Evil God Power at the ’Divine Thought’ level.

The true Divine Soul, close to the Evil God’s origin, he simply couldn’t erase.

Mo Hua sighed.

”Is it impossible...”

The Evil Baby, suffering Mo Hua’s repeated ’humiliation’, was already furious beyond measure.

For countless years, no True God, Heavenly Demon, ghost, Evil Soul, or even Divine Practitioner had been able to subject it to such ’utter humiliation’!

This shame, it would forever remember within its Divine Soul.

The day its true body awakens, it is sure to command its multitude of believers, thousands of Demon Monsters, to spare no effort in capturing this little ghost, dissecting its soul, cutting its spirit, resurrecting it in endless suffering, to repay for the sins it committed!

Inwardly furious, it said with a sinister smile, ”There’s no need to waste your efforts, I told you, you can’t kill me.”

Mo Hua nodded and sighed, ”Indeed, I can’t kill you...”

Having said this, Mo Hua pinched the Evil Baby by the neck, lifting it, walked towards the center of his Sea of Consciousness.

The Evil Baby’s expression changed slightly, a sense of unease rising in its heart.

”What are you going to do?”

”You’ll know in a moment,” Mo Hua said indifferently.

He restrained the Evil Baby, brought it to the center of the Sea of Consciousness, then moved his Divine Thought slightly, communicating with that ancient existence.

Moments later, the voice of the Great Dao, resonant like a great bell, resounded.

In the center of the Sea of Consciousness, amidst the void, the ancient and incomplete Taoist Stele gradually appeared.

A vast and majestic Daoist aura rippled outward.

The Evil Baby’s expression changed dramatically, its voice trembling:

”Dao...”

The ancient memory within its talent made it feel that in front of this stone tablet, it was incredibly familiar, terrifyingly familiar, fearfully familiar...

But no matter how hard it tried to think, it couldn’t remember what this stone tablet was...

As if within it, existed a kind of taboo.

A terrifying taboo that even it, as an Evil God who lived for tens of thousands of years, dared not touch, dared not overstep, dared not interfere with.

Seeing the Evil Baby like this, Mo Hua was somewhat surprised. Then he deliberately paused, wanting to see if this Evil Baby might know something about the Taoist Stele’s origins.

But apparently, it didn’t know much either.

Mo Hua felt a bit disappointed, but after thinking it over, he let it go.

He didn’t want to prolong things any longer. They were deep within the Dragon King Temple, at the bottom of the White Bone Maze, and he had already spent too long with this Evil Baby. Prolonging would risk complications.

A quick resolution was needed.

Mo Hua planned to do another ’goat head barbecue’, using the Taoist Stele to suppress the Evil God, using Robbery Thunder to obliterate the Divine Soul, refine away the Evil Qi, and refine pure Divine Marrow.

It had been so long, he ought to enjoy something good.

However, the Evil Baby suddenly spoke:

”I see... I understand now why my flesh, my bones, indeed containing my will, were utterly annihilated.”

”So it turns out, you possess such an ancient innate Treasure...”

”But if you think this can deal with me, you are still too young...”

”Always remember, in this world, not everything will go as you wish.”
