Chapter 1080: Insane
Chapter 1080: Insane
Situ Zhenren watched in deep self-doubt as Mo Hua, impervious to all evils, butchered the demonic horde in the Nightmare Realm with the ease of slicing through melons and chopping vegetables.
Seeing his demonic “offspring” slaughtered by Mo Hua, the Primordial Evil God Embryo erupted in uncontrollable fury.
His form grew taller, his goat horns became more menacing, and ancient runes transformed into pitch-black scales, covering his skin like an evil suit of armor.
The Primordial Evil God Embryo grew visibly, and his innate powers awakened bit by bit. Black mists, blood claws, evil roars, and scaly armor—his arsenal of abilities continuously expanded, all aimed at Mo Hua.
But to the battle-hardened and experienced Mo Hua, these newly awakened powers were no threat at all.
The black mists were dispelled by fireballs, the blood claws blocked by his Golden Body, and his dragon roar easily outmatched the evil roars.
In the Divine Consciousness Body, the Primordial Evil God Embryo was still a newborn, a mere “chick.”
Mo Hua, on the other hand, had long been seasoned in battle, possessing a Dao-manifested Pure Gold Physique. He had transcended the limits of the Great Dao and advanced to the Twenty-Pattern Third-Rank Golden Core realm. His Divine Consciousness Body was overwhelmingly powerful, and his Divine Consciousness techniques were infinitely profound.
His techniques, swift and fierce, combined with his formidable martial prowess and instantly formed arrays, left the Primordial Evil God Embryo of the Great Wilderness controlled, suppressed, bound, burned, and doused in water. Mo Hua’s overwhelming strikes forced the Embryo into a continuous retreat, leaving him in a wretched state.
The Embryo’s divine laws seemed ineffective against Mo Hua, and even the aura of divinity he exuded could not make Mo Hua fear or submit.
This was a battle on the divine level.
A newborn evil god was being thoroughly beaten, a scene so unbelievable that it had actually come to pass.
Situ Zhenren’s mouth hung open, and for a moment, he thought he was dreaming.
However…
Observing the intense battle, Situ Zhenren frowned slightly.
It appeared that Mo Hua was indeed in the upper hand.
But his Divine Consciousness attacks, though fierce, could only “humiliate” the evil god, not truly injure its essence.
The newborn Primordial Evil God Embryo, despite appearing wretched and seemingly helpless under Mo Hua’s attacks, was not under any “fatal” threat. In fact, his strength was gradually recovering, and his awakened powers were growing stronger.
It seemed that Mo Hua, this formidable enemy, was exerting immense pressure on the Embryo, forcing it to rapidly awaken and evolve.
Mo Hua’s attacks had become the “grinding stone” for the Embryo’s transformation.
If this continued, the situation would become dire…
Situ Zhenren’s expression grew grave.
Noticing the Embryo growing stronger under his “humiliation,” Mo Hua’s expression changed, and he silently sighed:
“Indeed, the Great Wilderness Evil God… difficult to slay as an embryo, even more so as a true form.”
Even with his Divine Consciousness manifested and advanced to the Golden Core realm, his various Divine Consciousness techniques had nearly doubled in power, but he could only suppress the newborn Primordial Evil God Embryo, rendering it unable to retaliate. He could not truly “tear it apart.”
Moreover, the Great Wilderness Evil God Embryo was becoming stronger under his “hammering,” his techniques and powers growing more proficient.
If this continued, once the Embryo reached a certain stage and awakened stronger powers, Mo Hua would truly be unable to control it.
“There’s still a significant gap…”
Mo Hua sighed inwardly.
Suddenly, he felt a tremor in his heart and heard a faint, strange sound.
The voice was obscure and ancient, like an ancient divine language.
Mo Hua was startled and looked up to see the Embryo using various powers to counter his Divine Consciousness techniques while mouthing ancient divine words, seemingly speaking to him:
“You… carry the aura of the Supreme Being…”
“Who… are you?”
Mo Hua could vaguely understand the meaning but did not know how to speak the divine language, so he remained silent.
The Evil God Embryo, seeing Mo Hua’s silence, was taken aback and asked in a hoarse voice, “You… are not a deity?”
Mo Hua still did not respond.
The Primordial Evil God Embryo’s gaze turned cold, his voice filled with shock and a strange mix of excitement and fear:
“You… have transgressed the divine taboo, you are… a Taoist heretic!”
Mo Hua was taken aback, his brow furrowing.
A Taoist heretic?
Me?
“Heretic!” the Primordial Evil God Embryo roared.
Seemingly provoked by the word “heretic,” the Great Wilderness Evil God Embryo’s expression twisted, and his innate memories rapidly awakened. The evil aura surrounding his body intensified, and an ancient, powerful presence began to stir…
Mo Hua’s expression changed, and he thought: Not good!
In his perception, the young evil god was growing at an incredible rate, evolving into the true form of the Great Wilderness Evil God.
His growth was too fast.
Mo Hua no longer held back, and with a fist enveloped in a torrent of golden light, he struck at the evil god’s head.
But in the next instant, a black hand grabbed Mo Hua’s fist.
The formidable evil will suppressed Mo Hua’s golden divine consciousness.
The Primordial Evil God Embryo had grown taller than Mo Hua, his hand doubling in size, covered in ancient scales with razor-sharp claws that tightly gripped Mo Hua’s fist.
Mo Hua frowned, his eyes revealing a cold glint.
“He’s getting stronger again, can’t delay any longer…”
Seeing Mo Hua being suppressed, the Primordial Evil God Embryo’s face twisted into a sinister grin.
He took the initiative, launching a barrage of punches and claw strikes at Mo Hua, each attack infused with black mists and blood claws, overwhelming Mo Hua and forcing him on the defensive.
Situ Zhenren’s heart skipped a beat at the sight, inwardly cursing his misfortune.
The Great Wilderness Evil God was too formidable, with a divine essence that had endured for ages and a profound divine foundation. Its growth was far too rapid!
There was no way to suppress it anymore!
On the other side, the Primordial Evil God Embryo continued to grow stronger, continuously overwhelming Mo Hua with fierce and perilous attacks.
His consciousness was also maturing rapidly.
Due to devouring the grievances of countless Blood-Sacrifice Cultivators at the moment of their deaths, and hatching from a human divine embryo, his divine essence had yet to fully awaken, and he was still in his youth. This had imbued his character with a multitude of human vices.
Compared to the terrifying Evil God, the current Lord of the Great Wilderness seemed more like a powerful malevolent being, embodying the notion that "man is born evil."
His gaze towards Mo Hua was filled with mockery and disdain.
He even began to mock Mo Hua with increasingly fluent and sharp words:
"Is this all you've got?"
"With such a meager divine prowess, you dare to try and obstruct my arrival? Truly laughable!"
With a single claw, he summoned a blood claw that sliced into Mo Hua’s arm, leaving several wounds. He then pushed Mo Hua back several steps and continued to advance, suppressing Mo Hua with fierce attacks while mocking him in the ancient divine language:
"You are a Tao heretic, daring to steal the path of the divine and transgress the great taboos, yet you don’t aspire to advance further, to devour the 'straw dogs' of the world and ascend above all beings. Even in your youthful and immature state, you dare to challenge me, truly a foolish creature who has not shed your mortal desires!"
The implications of these words were profound, revealing a wealth of information. Mo Hua was momentarily taken aback, frowning as he asked:
"Devour straw dogs?"
He didn’t understand the divine language, but he spoke in human language, and it seemed the Primordial Evil God Embryo could understand him.
The Evil God, seeing Mo Hua’s “ignorant” expression, felt a deep disdain. His voice grew hoarse, and he assumed an air of supreme authority:
"The heavens regard all beings as straw dogs, and the divine regard mortals as straw dogs."
"Straw dogs are sacrifices."
"Only by raising and devouring numerous sacrifices can one solidify and strengthen the divine path, becoming the supreme celestial deity, transcending all laws and merging with the Dao, achieving immortality..."
"But now, you willingly degrade yourself, allying with these lowly straw dogs, forever severing your connection to the celestial path. The Dao you know, cultivate, and seek is too base..."
Mo Hua’s gaze was cold and unimpressed.
The Evil God sneered, mocking Mo Hua’s stubbornness.
"A heretic is a heretic, ignorant and unenlightened, unable to comprehend the Tao."
However, the delay was enough...
The Evil God’s eyes turned a deep red, and he let out a roar. A powerful wave of malevolent divine intent surged outward, disrupting the minds of all demons and primordial spirits present.
This seemed to be a new divine ability he had just awakened.
Situ Zhenren felt his primordial spirit writhing in pain, his divine consciousness trembling. Under the oppressive force of this malevolent intent, the world fell silent, devoid of any sound.
Situ Zhenren was startled, quickly realizing something, and his expression changed drastically.
He turned to look at Wenren Wan, and indeed, she was moving her lips but making no sound.
"Stripped of the laws!"
"Within this nightmare, no sound can be transmitted!"
"Trouble!"
Situ Zhenren immediately turned to look at the Primordial Evil God Embryo. Indeed, the Evil God’s form had suddenly grown larger, his body encased in a malevolent aura, appearing strong and mighty. The two horns on his head had turned pitch black and grotesque, with even more powerful malevolent energy converging into a single point, radiating a terrifying aura.
By awakening this divine ability and stripping away the laws, the Evil God had rendered Wenren Wan temporarily voiceless.
This innate maternal law could no longer constrain him.
With his innate divine abilities, he could now form a lethal attack, gathering all his malevolent energy to instantly obliterate Mo Hua, who posed the greatest threat.
The innate divine abilities of the Evil God were akin to the pinnacle of divine consciousness techniques.
The power of such a divine attack was terrifying.
Even a deity would be unable to withstand it.
Situ Zhenren’s face turned ashen, his body trembling, sensing the impending doom. He struggled to go to Mo Hua’s aid, but his divine consciousness was exhausted, and his treasures were shattered. He could do nothing but watch as the overwhelming malevolent intent condensed.
Just as Situ Zhenren was filled with despair, he caught a glimpse of a golden light out of the corner of his eye.
It was a sharp, golden light.
Situ Zhenren turned to look and saw Mo Hua, who was standing calmly opposite the Evil God, his hands clasped together above his head. His eyes, clear and translucent like crystal, glowed with a sharp brilliance that was almost blinding.
At the same time, the mountain-splitting, metal-severing, fire-separating, and water-cutting sword formations appeared in sequence, ancient Grand Emptiness sword intent surging.
A chilling sword aura condensed in Mo Hua’s palms.
"This is..."
Situ Zhenren’s pupils dilated, his face filled with shock.
A name he had almost never expected to hear, a name he had never thought he would encounter again, surfaced in his mind.
"Grand Emptiness Divine Consciousness Sword Art?! "
Situ Zhenren’s heart trembled, and his pupils widened:
"No, this is not just any Divine Consciousness Sword Art, but the ultimate form... the God-Sundering Sword?!"
The God-Sundering Sword!
The immense shock reverberated through Situ Zhenren’s heart, his face filled with disbelief:
"How could this child... know the God-Sundering Sword?!"
"Is he a disciple of the Grand Emptiness Sect’s Elder Solitary?"
"But that’s impossible..."
"How old is he, what realm is he in, that he could have learned the Grand Emptiness God-Sundering Sword, which only the most talented sword cultivators of the Grand Emptiness Sect can begin to grasp?!"
"Even more, this doesn’t seem like a regular God-Sundering Sword; it’s too large..."
"What is... going on here?"
Situ Zhenren was lost in confusion and shock.
On the other side, the Primordial Evil God Embryo, who had been mocking Mo Hua, also changed color.
He felt a sense of fear from this sword technique.
This was the ultimate sword technique, created by the greatest cultivators of humanity after immense effort, specifically to erase divine consciousness and even slay gods.
"Vile heretic, your schemes are long-planned. You aim to slay me with this sword technique, all your previous actions were merely to find the right opportunity..."
The Primordial Evil God Embryo seethed with anger, then glared at Mo Hua with a cold laugh, "The Evil God is immortal; you can't kill me."
"Without treating the masses as straw dogs, one cannot forge a divine essence."
"Your path to godhood is too shallow."
Mo Hua furrowed his brow slightly, meditating for a moment before a sudden insight illuminated his mind. He understood his own "path."
He looked at the Primordial Evil God Embryo with deep, penetrating eyes, and spoke slowly:
"Heaven and Earth are not benevolent; they treat all things as straw dogs."
"Gods are also among all things, so you are a straw dog as well."
"If the masses are your sacrifices, then you... are my sacrifice!"
As these words were spoken, the celestial mechanism trembled, and in the mysterious interplay of cause and effect, a faint thread of the Dao's law fused with Mo Hua, imprinting itself on his destiny.
If a god treats the masses as sacrifices,
Then he would treat the gods as sacrifices.
The Primordial Evil God Embryo's pupils dilated in shock, and he instantly erupted in fury, his expression twisted with a mix of ferocity and terror. He shrieked:
"Blasphemy! Arrogance! Ignorance! What are you?!"
But deep down, he felt an overwhelming dread and fear.
"This is no ordinary heretic!"
"I must utterly crush this heretic here and now, to eliminate any future threats!"
At any cost!
The Primordial Evil God Embryo's gaze was terrifying, and he began to use his primal power without hesitation, even at the cost of his own essence. A deeper, more sinister force merged with his horns, the malevolent energy between them growing darker, almost void-like.
This power left Situ Zhenren completely pale.
On the other side, Mo Hua's expression was equally grave.
But with the arrow on the string, he had no choice but to release it. His God-Sundering Sword was fully charged, its entire blade like a celestial sword, vast and majestic.
In terms of aura, Mo Hua was on par with the young Evil God.
But in terms of the primal power of divine consciousness, Mo Hua was slightly inferior. A life-or-death struggle was uncertain.
Just as their ultimate attacks were about to collide,
Mo Hua's expression turned icy, his pupils suddenly darkening. An ancient, malevolent, and demonic aura, capable of severing emotions and slaying all, swiftly merged with the God-Sundering Sword.
The change in the sword's Dao was so swift that Situ Zhenren didn't even have time to react.
The Primordial Evil God Embryo was momentarily stunned, then his eyes widened in disbelief, his cold, malevolent gaze filled with astonishment:
"The aura of a Heavenly Demon?!"
"How is this possible?!"
"Who is this kid?!"
Before he could react, the "devious and despicable" Mo Hua coldly shouted:
"Sever!"
With his Pure Gold Dao Manifestation, a twenty-pattern Golden Core divine consciousness, the complete fusion of the Five Phases Sword Array, the Grand Emptiness sword intent, and the terrifying Heavenly Demon Path, he condensed all these complex and profound laws into a single, colossal "Grand Emptiness God-Sundering Sword."
With this shout,
The massive sword descended like an inverted galaxy, the horizon collapsing, and it collided with the Evil God's terrifying divine technique.
Golden light of five colors and blackish-red malevolent energy surged like a tidal wave.
The entire Nightmare Realm of the Evil God trembled and warped.
Situ Zhenren, caught in the aftermath, felt as if he were at the center of a terrifying storm of divine consciousness. His flickering Primordial Spirit, like a candle in the wind, teetered on the brink of extinction, yet he somehow managed to cling to a sliver of life, as if someone was deliberately protecting him from true annihilation.
But Situ Zhenren's heart was still roiling with shock.
This was the first time in his life he had seen a human's divine consciousness unleashed like a storm, surging and ravaging.
After a prolonged tremor, the storm of divine consciousness finally subsided.
Situ Zhenren, still reeling from the shock, slowly opened his eyes to see the Evil God's Nightmare Altar reduced to ruins.
Amid the ruins, Mo Hua stood with the massive sword in hand.
Across from him, the Primordial Evil God Embryo had been cleaved from shoulder to abdomen.
Situ Zhenren's expression was a mix of shock and disbelief, "He actually... split the Evil God?"
But a moment later, the Evil God's eyes flickered, and Situ Zhenren's heart sank.
Not dead!
The Evil God was still not dead!
Mo Hua's realm was still too low. Although the God-Sundering Sword had split the Evil God, and the Heavenly Demon Path had prevented the Evil God's body from healing, it still couldn't destroy his essence.
With his body half-cleaved and essence damaged, the Primordial Evil God Embryo experienced a feeling of lingering fear for the first time since his birth.
That formidable divine consciousness body.
That powerful God-Sundering Sword technique.
That ancient and bizarre Heavenly Demon Path.
This "heretic", whether human, god, or demon, was a being capable of instilling fear even in the gods.
But...
The Primordial Evil God Embryo looked at Mo Hua and sneered, "The Evil God is immortal. I told you, you can't kill me..."
Mo Hua's face was pale, and he nodded, "I know, I can't kill you."
After speaking, Mo Hua licked his lips.
The Evil God sensed danger and his face changed, "You... what are you going to do?"
Mo Hua said nothing, raised the "giant sword" formed by his divine consciousness, and charged forward, slicing the Primordial Evil God Embryo into pieces, black fluid pooling on the ground.
Then Mo Hua opened his mouth and inhaled forcefully, swallowing the Evil God's "blood" and "flesh" whole.
Seeing this, Situ Zhenren nearly had a heart attack.
He never imagined that someone could dismember a newborn Evil God and then...
Devour it alive?!
Such a heartless, brutal, and terrifying act shook Situ Zhenren's aged heart, making him shudder with horror...
