Immortal Mortal Chapter 1226: The Fierce Battle During The Cataclysm

Even with the might of Mo Wuji's Mortal Dao and the firmness of his domain, he found himself in a dire predicament when cornered by numerous experts. His domain began to show cracks, and attacks from sacred arts pierced through the weakened barriers, striking Mo Wuji's body and drawing trails of blood.

This was so even with Mo Wuji's Sage Physique; without it, he would have been torn to shreds long ago.

"Haha! Mo Wuji, you've brought this upon yourself!" A savage laugh echoed from afar, accompanied by a chilling killing intent that manifested as a monstrous lightning bolt, hurtling towards him.

"Lei Hongji!" Mo Wuji's heart sank. Lei Hongji's power was renowned, and he had clearly surpassed the Quasi-Sage Stage.

It was evident that due to the World-Ending Cataclysm, which caused all worlds and planes to collapse, Lei Hongji's spiritual will had easily pinpointed his location.

Were it not for Luo, the six Sage-level experts, and the hundred Quasi-Sages, Mo Wuji would not have needed to give Lei Hongji a second thought.

"Boom!" A crimson lightning bolt, as thick as a millstone, descended. A palpable aura of death enveloped Mo Wuji.

In this critical moment, Mo Wuji could no longer concern himself with whether his actions would hasten the universe's collapse. He unleashed his elemental energy, weaving rapid hand seals that conjured countless Dao ripples.

He unleashed a palm seal of destruction – the Great Art of Destruction. Simultaneously, his Mortal Halberd sliced through the air, cleaving a colossal chasm.

The layered domains shattered, and the light from magic treasures erupted outwards.

God Emperor Ming Yue, who had previously dismissed Mo Wuji, was now consumed by extreme fear.

He finally understood why Luo had looked at him as if he were an imbecile. Wasn't Mo Wuji vastly more powerful now than before?

The oppressive Dao ripples from the Great Art of Destruction bore down. There was no question of merely injuring Mo Wuji; at this instant, he was denied any chance to retaliate. Before he could even fully unfurl his Needle-Head Book, the Dao ripples from the Great Art of Destruction tore him asunder.

Before his demise, he saw Luo's gaze fall upon him. It was clear that Luo could have intervened to save him, yet Luo showed no intention of doing so.

"Boom!" The light from the Mortal Halberd clashed against the crimson lightning, reducing the power of the millstone-thick bolt by 99%. However, the lightning, now merely thumb-thick, still found its way through the rents in Mo Wuji's domain and struck him.

"Bang!" Mists of blood erupted. These sprays were not solely from the significant portion of Mo Wuji's shoulder that was obliterated. They also consisted of blood mist formed from the disintegration of tens of Quasi-Sages and Unity Gods.

Although Mo Wuji's Great Art of Destruction had annihilated tens of Quasi-Sages and nearly all the Unity Gods, the remaining combatants did not flee. The universe was collapsing, and fear gripped everyone present.

They all understood that attempting to escape was a direct path to annihilation. The impending Cataclysm was evidently the universe's collapse. If they united to defeat Mo Wuji, they might earn the favor of a Sage and find refuge within that Sage's supreme treasure of fortune. To flee, on the other hand, meant perishing along with the universe.

While Mo Wuji had eliminated tens of Quasi-Sages and all the Unity Gods, he recognized that his opponents' collective strength had not diminished; rather, it had grown. This was due to the emergence of a formidable Lei Hongji.

Seven experts on par with Sages, alongside the far more powerful Luo, had sealed the entire space. At this juncture, Mo Wuji had no possibility of escape.

In truth, even if escape were possible, he would not have chosen it.

The World-Ending Cataclysm had arrived. With each passing moment, countless lives were extinguished. Innumerable planets crumbled, and vast galaxies disintegrated. In a world where space itself was collapsing, there was no sanctuary to flee to except his Mortal World. As for his Mortal World, he dared not venture into it.

"You are quite formidable. You have actually fused with a primordial Lightning Law." Luo's gaze settled on Lei Hongji. Lei Hongji was undeniably much stronger than the others present. With Lei Hongji's assistance, Mo Wuji's prospects of escape were virtually nonexistent.

Lei Hongji did not recognize Luo but could sense that Luo possessed a power far exceeding his own. Though he understood his objective aligned with Luo's – to seize Mo Wuji's possessions – he knew he had no alternative but to cooperate with Luo to eliminate Mo Wuji.

Once Mo Wuji was dealt with, he was confident he could claim the most valuable treasures with his Great Art of Thunderclap.

"This individual lacks any conscience. As long as I exist within this universe, it is my duty to lend a hand in eliminating him." Lei Hongji declared righteously. As he spoke, his lightning domain expanded explosively, clearly indicating that he had not exerted his full power previously.

"Good. Everyone, combine your domains and crush him. We must annihilate him!" Luo chuckled. His Sword of Fortune began to conjure boundless sword qi with intensified force, tearing openings in Mo Wuji's domain.

"How could you exclude me, Tai Shixiao, from such a profitable endeavor!" another voice boomed. In this collapsing world, no hidden actions could remain concealed.

Before this man in green robes even arrived, ten Spiritual Will Arrows were unleashed.

Had it not been for eight supreme experts occupying his attention, Mo Wuji would have paid no mind to a mere Tai Shixiao. Unfortunately, he possessed no surplus strength to contend with further assaults.

Despite his vast sea of consciousness and the presence of the violet lake, he could not suppress a cough of blood as these ten Spiritual Will Arrows struck him. An additional ten fractures materialized within his Mortal Domain.

"Excellent. This man is devoid of conscience and has offended far too many. Now, as the World-Ending Cataclysm descends, he will finally settle his debts. Hahahaha..." Luo Xu guffawed. However, his laughter was hollow, as he was merely anticipating Mo Wuji's downfall to seize the most valuable treasures.

"Very well, Dao Friend Tai Shixiao, hasten your advance." Luo said with a chuckle, his face beaming with apparent delight and sincerity. Yet, in his heart, he already regarded Tai Shixiao as a doomed man. This individual had actually merged with his Dao Law of the Universe, ascending to Sagehood, and possessed no concept of death.

But this was not the moment for trivial disputes. Once Mo Wuji was eliminated, he would leisurely dismantle this insignificant being. A Sage incapable of fully integrating with a Dao Law of the Universe was no more than an ant in his estimation.

"Indeed, this scoundrel dared to pilfer my Void Nirvana Root and technique manual. I have been relentlessly searching for him. Today, this Sage has finally located him..." As Tai Shixiao spoke, his hands moved with incredible speed, conjuring and unleashing a sacred art directly at Mo Wuji.

Mo Wuji was already on the verge of collapse. With the emergence of Tai Shixiao, more breaches appeared in his domain, and it began to disintegrate.

As his domain shattered, multifarious beams of sacred art energy rained down upon his body, causing more clouds of blood to erupt.

Mo Wuji let out a sigh, acknowledging that his endurance was waning rapidly.

If death was inevitable, he resolved to drag some adversaries down with him. Mo Wuji's spiritual will surged outward through countless disintegrating worlds. At this critical juncture, he glimpsed Yan’Er charging towards him with frantic determination, causing his heart to tremble violently.

He was now certain that Yan’Er had regained her memories. Otherwise, she would not be hurtling towards him, disregarding her own safety.

"Do not approach!" Mo Wuji bellowed. The universe was rapidly falling apart; if Yan’Er were drawn into this cataclysm, she would be annihilated along with the cosmos.

"Pff!" Mo Wuji's domain had already been obliterated, and with this momentary distraction, Luo's Sword of Fortune pierced his chest, erupting in a bloom of blood.

Mo Wuji's fury ascended to the heavens. The Mortal Halberd manifested a radiant arc of light that seemed to encompass half the universe, cleaving downward towards Luo. He channeled the Dao Laws of his Mortal World, merging them with his domain.

"Shameless! Ganging up on one individual? I, Tian Hen, have arrived! Attack!" Tian Hen's voice resonated, followed swiftly by the release of his sacred art. Under Tian Hen's onslaught, half of the Quasi-Sages and Unity Gods positioned at the periphery were obliterated.

Subsequently, a furnace colossal as a mountain descended with immense force!

"Of course, we must attack!" Huan Ti's voice echoed. The Gods Tower plummeted from above, radiating formidable power.

He had located the Gods Tower and, upon returning to the Sage Stage, had immediately proceeded here with Tian Hen.

"And do not forget me, Tong Ming! You dare to lay hands on me, Tong Ming's, brother, and you shall face my sword!" While Tong Ming was not a Throned Sage, his combat prowess was on par with Heng Zuo.

"I, Gu Pingren..."

"I, Gu Yongxiao..."

"And I, Red Lotus!" The serene voice of the green-robed Sage Nun resonated, and a colossal red lotus materialized.

"Haha, Brother Mo, I have arrived!" Even before Yuan Zhenyi made his physical appearance, his massive fist had already slammed down.

His Martial Dao had reached a state of profound completion. As the universe began its collapse, he immediately discerned Mo Wuji engaged in battle against his numerous assailants. How could he, Yuan Zhenyi, refrain from joining his brother's desperate struggle?

The World-Ending Cataclysm had irrevocably commenced, and the entire universe was succumbing to disintegration. There were no longer any obstructions or barriers within this cosmos. For any individual possessing even a sliver of cultivation, the experts surrounding and assaulting Mo Wuji were clearly visible.

The oppressive force bearing down on Mo Wuji diminished considerably. Right then, his Mortal Halberd gleamed with a heightened radiance. Within this crumbling realm, his halberd appeared as a resplendent sun.
