The Quest for Immortality

Ancient and mysterious, with the Five Elements flowing and formations unified, the Taixu God-Slaying Sword burst forth with light, like a celestial river turned upside down, suddenly cleaving down.

The Blood Blade, condensed from the blood of the Divine Remains, shattered inch by inch at the moment of clash. The path of blood—massacre, ruthlessness, slaughter, desolation, and dehumanization—was strangled by Mo Hua’s Sword Dao, and finally crushed directly by the ancient and vast Tai Xu Sword Intent.

In the end, the Blood Blade collapsed.

The majestic God-Slaying Sword broke the Blood Blade, swept away the blood sea, and with supreme momentum, struck the Divine Remains.

The Third Grade Divine Remains, with Divine Thoughts condensed as reality, and black-red blood as if an indestructible armor.

Yet in front of this ”God-Slaying Sword,” which combined the Mountain Opening Sword Formation, Gold-Cutting Sword Formation, Gui Water Sword Formation, Li Fire Sword Formation, and the ancient Tai Xu Sword Intent, it was still vulnerable.

The dazzling edge of the God-Slaying Sword only paused for a moment before breaking the blood armor of the Divine Remains, shattering its shoulder bone, cleaving into its body, and then all the way down, completely cutting the Divine Remains in two, severing its Dao, and slaying its origin.

The Divine Body was shattered, the blood stopped flowing, and the origin was cut off.

At the wound, the Sword Intent lingered, continuously slicing, preventing the recovery of injuries and extinguishing all vitality.

The shocked expression of the Divine Remains still remained on its face; a moment later, it slowly turned its head, looking at Mo Hua who was holding the God-Slaying Great Sword with both hands, with a gaze full of fear.

”What a powerful sword...”

Gradually, the expression of the Divine Remains became calm and indifferent.

Its body was gradually dissipating, its will slowly obliterating, but its tone was very flat.

”You won...”

”Your Dao Hua is a mess, your Sword Dao is chaotic... but I must admit, it is indeed very strong.”

”But the Dao is boundless, the further you go, the purer and more refined it must be. Being so rough, you won’t get far.”

The blood-colored Divine Remains looked deeply at Mo Hua one last time.

”This time, I lost. I hope next time, I can meet you again...”

”If you don’t die, that is, if...”

”You are still yourself.”

Having said that, the Divine Remains turned to dust, completely obliterated, leaving only a mass of black-red smoke, like sand and gravel, in place.

Mo Hua frowned.

”It lost this time, and yet it talks about meeting me again next time... isn’t this thing dead? How can it meet me if it’s dead?”

”Moreover... wasn’t it the Divine Remains of the Great Wilderness Evil God? Why is it so different from other Divine Remains?”

”Is it because it’s Third Grade, or is there another reason?”

”This Divine Remains is rather strange...”

Mo Hua pondered for a moment, and suddenly a sharp pain in the Sea of Consciousness made his heart shudder:

”Oh no, I’ve overexerted myself...”

As the Divine Remains of a Third Grade external evil, it placed too much burden on his Sea of Consciousness and body, causing his Blood Qi to shrink, and his Sea of Consciousness to start aching.

Furthermore, the Divine Marrow was exhausted...

Mo Hua felt bitter inside, muttering:

”This battle was truly a bitter victory, utterly exhausted, all my trump cards were used, my family’s wealth spent, but at least I killed a Third Grade Divine Remains, which should be able to return some cost. Hopefully, this Third Grade Divine Remains won’t disappoint me...”

Mo Hua weakly stood up and approached the mass of Third Grade black smoke, reaching out his palm to manifest a formation and first simply refine it, but as he extended his hand, Mo Hua saw that his palm was pitch black.

Mo Hua was stunned.

”When did I get wounded?”

”Or was I polluted by this Divine Remains?”

Looking down, he discovered that not just his palm, but his entire arm, shoulder, chest, and practically half of his body, as if stained with sewage, were all pitch black.

Mo Hua’s pupils contracted.

At the same time, a sharp, sinister, and piercing laugh resounded. .

Evil Embryo!

Mo Hua’s expression changed, and he immediately wanted to lay down a Divine Formation to completely seal his Divine Soul, but it was too late.

The black water gushed from within his Divine Body, polluting his limbs and bones, even his face was stained with black spots.

”I clearly laid a formation, how did you come out?” Mo Hua exclaimed in shock.

The black water of the Evil Embryo covered Mo Hua’s face, using Mo Hua’s tongue, it mocked with a sharp and eerie voice:

”Why... do you think that with your trivial skill in Divine Formations, you could seal me?”

”I have been dormant for a long time; do you think I would do nothing, waiting for you to seal me and kill me?”

”I have waited a long time, just for now...”

Mo Hua’s heart sank, trying to summon the Taoist Stele, but there was no movement in the Sea of Consciousness.

He then remembered, it was not 1 p.m., the Taoist Stele would not appear.

The Evil Embryo sneered coldly, ”Don’t waste your efforts, I am hidden within your Divine Soul, and know everything about you intimately.”

”It’s not 1 p.m., your Taoist Stele will not appear.”

”Your Divine Thought is strong, but it’s not as strong as the Third Grade Divine Remains. Forcing a confrontation would consume the Divine Marrow.”

”If you’re unlucky, you’ll die at the hands of the Divine Remains.”

”Even if you defeat the Divine Remains, you must use all your strength, exhaust all your trump cards, and for a period, be at the end of your rope...”

Mo Hua frowned, ”So this Third Grade Divine Remains was actually summoned by you? You’ve been lying in wait for so long, just for now?”

After Mo Hua finished speaking, his face turned black and gloomy, transforming into the appearance of the ”Evil Embryo,” which mocked:

”Indeed, you are smart, only realizing it now.”

Mo Hua coldly said, ”Don’t forget, you can’t erode my Taoist Heart. Facing me head-on, even if I’m exhausted now, you are still no match for me.”

”I just need to hold on for a few hours until 1 p.m., when the Taoist Stele guards the Sea of Consciousness, and you’ll still have to be a ’turtle hiding in its shell’.”

”Give it time, and I will surely slay you!”

Even in a disadvantageous situation, Mo Hua’s words made the Evil Embryo shiver with fear.
