The Quest for Immortality

The Divine Sense is muddled and dazed, obviously awake, but still utterly exhausted, with the Sea of Consciousness feeling as heavy as a thousand-jun, as if burdened with too many sins and debts.

Moreover, everything before him is hazy.

Anything seen is half black and half white.

As if the world had lost its color, returning to its most original hues, the intertwining of black and white makes one feel that everything is dead silent, yet also makes one feel the Great Dao unifies all.

Mo Hua blinked forcefully again.

The black-and-white colors of heaven and earth faded slightly, adding a bit more color but still not completely dispersing, with half-black and half-white shadows still adhering to the edges of his sight.

This black-and-white vision seemed to merge with his eyes.

Mo Hua frowned, blinked again, and upon reopening his eyes, he saw Elder Master Xun, whose hair was snow-white, beginning to show worry in his strict gaze.

Mo Hua was taken aback, ”Elder Master Xun...”

As he attempted to get up, a craggy but warm hand held him down, ”Do not move.”

Elder Master Xun placed the back of his hand on Mo Hua’s forehead, tested Mo Hua’s pulse, perceived the strength and weakness of Mo Hua’s channels, the surplus and deficit of Blood Qi, and the flow of Spiritual Power. Finally, he pinched Mo Hua’s chin, examining Mo Hua’s eyes back and forth.

Seeing the black and white in Mo Hua’s eyes gradually fading, with no Evil Qi remaining, and no traces of Corpse Qi and Blood Qi, he finally felt at ease.

”Can you see clearly?”

”I can see clearly,” Mo Hua nodded, speaking truthfully, ”but it’s still a bit blurry, with a bit of a black-and-white edge.”

”And your channels’ Spiritual Power?”

Mo Hua ran through his energy, saying, ”I think it’s okay.”

”Do you feel tired?”

”Yes,” Mo Hua nodded, ”I feel that my shoulder is heavy, as if something is pressing on me, preventing me from breathing easily...”

Elder Master Xun sighed slightly.

The weight of such slaughter still only feels ”heavy”, this Life Chart isn’t something that can be described as just ”tough”.

”Do you...” Elder Master Xun paused slightly, then still directly asked, ”Want to kill people?”

”Kill people?”

Mo Hua was stunned, somewhat confused, ”Why would I want to kill people?”

Elder Master Xun was unsure where to begin, sighing, ”Not wanting to kill is good.”

Elder Master Xun examined Mo Hua’s eyes again, ensuring that Mo Hua’s gaze was clear and sincere, not lying to him, which finally set his mind at rest.

Mo Hua was a little baffled, ”Elder Master Xun, what exactly is going on with me?”

Elder Master Xun looked at Mo Hua silently for a moment, asking softly, ”Do you know what you have done?”

”I...”

Mo Hua hesitated for a moment, deciding it was best to speak frankly to Elder Master Xun.

After all, Elder Master Xun treats me exceptionally well, some things are withheld only when absolutely necessary, he also finds it difficult to bring up.

But the matter of the Blood Sacrifice Array can be told, since I was rescuing people, not doing anything wrong, there’s no need to hide from the Gentleman.

Moreover, this matter is too large, I definitely can’t hold it by myself.

Honestly telling Elder Master Xun, Elder Master Xun can also back me up.

Mo Hua thought for a moment, then he explained everything he had done to Elder Master Xun.

He broke the Evil Path Large Formation at Yanluo Mountain to save his fellow disciples and other Qianxue’s Genius.

Later, in order to save Yu Er, he feigned agreement with Mr. Tu, surviving in the cracks between various Demon Heads, and finally managed to save Yu Er, meanwhile demolished the Blood Sacrifice Array, and conveniently killed all the Demon Heads within the array.

Elder Master Xun sighed, only feeling like listening to a storyteller narrate tales, full of dazzling wonders.

However, after being astonished repeatedly, he became numb.

No matter what shocking things Mo Hua does now, he has gradually come to accept it.

As for some details, Mo Hua surely concealed, Elder Master Xun does not intend to delve into them.

As long as one has a rough idea about things, knowing too much sometimes is not necessarily good.

Especially the matters concerning Mo Hua.

”I understand,” Elder Master Xun nodded, ”This matter ends here, do not mention it to anyone else, remember...”

Elder Master Xun looked deeply at Mo Hua, slowly stating:

”As for Yu Er’s matter, you merely happened to bring his ’body’ out, not knowing what happened in the nightmare.”

”The Blood Sacrifice Array’s self-destruction has nothing to do with you.”

”Those Demon Cultivators’ deaths are deserved, equally unrelated to you.”

”No matter what happens, you must insist that it’s ’unrelated to you’.”

”Otherwise, with so many Golden Cores and Feather Transformation Demon Heads perishing, not only Blood Refining Sect, Mystic Demon Sect, Yin Corpse Valley, Demon Sword Sect, Hehuan Sect... these Demon Sects would see you as the Demon Gate’s ’sworn enemy’, pursuing you relentlessly.”

”Even Qianxue’s various sects and aristocratic families would covet you, see you as a thorn in their side, scheming persistently against you, dissecting your mind, studying your Sea of Consciousness...”

”Your enemies would span both righteous and evil paths, making every step difficult and fraught with lethal danger.”

”You must remember these words!”

Elder Master Xun’s expression was extremely serious.

Mo Hua understood the stakes, earnestly nodding, ”Yes, Gentleman, I have remembered all.

Seeing this, Elder Master Xun’s seriousness faded, his gaze regaining warmth, softly replying:

”Alright, forget all of this, have a good rest and recovery. During this time, stay in the back mountains and go nowhere.”

”I will handle everything else.”

Mo Hua gratefully responded, ”Thank you, Gentleman.”

Elder Master Xun waved his hand, looking at Mo Hua kindly, gently instructing:

”You have sustained injuries related to causation, with heavy emotional burden, do not recklessly move your Divine Thought, nor overburden your mind, rest as much as possible, sleep more if you can.”
