Immortality Through Array Formations Chapter 2367 Chapter 1081: Gui Tao (Part 2)
Previously on Immortality Through Array Formations...
Ever since entering the Qianxue State Boundary, all the miscellaneous Divine Way knowledge he had learned from dealing with all kinds of Mountain Gods, Evil Gods, Demon Monsters, and Evil Spirits, along with those profound Divine Thought Skills, flashed one by one through Mo Hua's mind.
Suddenly, Mo Hua's heart stirred, and he spoke to True Man Situ:
"I possess a Divine Thought Skill that can completely sever their polluted Divine Thought, leaving behind only a pure Divine Soul."
"However, the issue lies in the fact that their Primordial Spirits have been polluted far too severely. After excising the filth, the pure Divine Soul that remains is exceedingly meager."
"With merely this wisp of Divine Soul, it's uncertain if they can survive; even if they do, they may never awaken; and should they wake, with their Primordial Spirits so gravely damaged, their Cultivation Realm will undoubtedly be far inferior to its former state..."
Yet, this was already the absolute extent of his capabilities.
True Man Situ was well aware of this fact in his heart.
The very existence of such a method in Mo Hua's possession was already a heavenly blessing; there was no room for demanding more.
True Man Situ cupped his hands and offered Mo Hua a solemn bow. "This old man, on behalf of all our fellow Daoists, thanks you for your immense kindness, little friend."
Mo Hua waved his hand dismissively. "True Man Situ, you are too kind."
Without further hesitation, he then urged the Supreme Emotion-cutting Dao, condensing a pitch-black, peculiar Heavenly Demon Sword within his hand. Wielding this Heavenly Demon Sword, he forcibly severed the filth within the Primordial Spirits of all those Divine Thought Cultivators, leaving them with naught but a solitary wisp of pure Divine Soul.
True Man Situ observed the strange and fearsome "Heavenly Demon Slash" in Mo Hua's grasp, his heart leaping violently, yet he could only feign ignorance.
Following the purification of everyone's Divine Souls, Mo Hua also executed a slash towards True Man Situ.
Having confronted the Evil God directly, it was inevitable that True Man Situ had been tainted by wicked filth.
A fleeting, illusory black light; a single sweep of the sword. True Man Situ's Divine Soul throbbed with pain, and his Divine Thought Power grew even weaker. Paradoxically, however, his mind felt purer, with numerous evil desires and stray thoughts purged, granting him a sudden sensation of immense relief.
In that singular moment, a profound realization dawned in his heart:
Although his Vital Energy was grievously damaged, the "death calamity" within his karmic fate seemed to have been resolved.
The most perilous life-and-death tribulation, predestined within the unseen threads of causality, had been personally averted by that young lad from Li State City, with whom he had forged a favorable karmic affinity a decade prior...
True Man Situ's countenance was etched with sighs and deep emotion.
Ten years ago, he had employed the Qiankun Clear Light Lamp to extend the lifespan of that boy's master.
And now, relying solely on his own abilities, that boy had resolved the most intensely fierce and vicious calamity of True Man Situ's entire existence—a calamity that carried an almost certain sentence of death.
True Man Situ was overcome with a complex mixture of gratitude and bitterness, a sentiment beyond ordinary description. Heavenly Mechanism Causality, every gain and loss is preordained. As individuals, one truly must endeavor to perform more good deeds and cultivate more hidden virtue...
True Man Situ gathered a wisp of Primordial Spirit from each Divine Thought Cultivator, then utilized his remaining Divine Thought to invoke the Seven Stars Formation, safeguarding these Remnant Souls. Afterward, he turned towards Mo Hua with clasped hands:
"Little friend, take care!"
Mo Hua reminded him once more: "Senior Situ, remember, you must ensure everyone vacates the Blood Sacrifice Array with utmost haste."
"And also..."
Mo Hua added deliberately, "Do not reveal to anyone that you encountered me. Do not breathe a word of anything that transpired within the nightmare."
True Man Situ's heart constricted. As a cultivator of Divine Thought, he grasped the gravity of the situation and nodded solemnly:
"Rest assured, little friend, this old man shall not forget!"
Having spoken, True Man Situ wasted no further time. He silently chanted the incantation, conjured the starlight of the Seven Stars Formation, and prepared to escort Wenren Wan away.
The Evil God had been annihilated by Mo Hua; with the Laws' constraints removed and no other Demon Monsters to interfere, nothing remained to impede the transference of the Mystic Sky Beidou Seven Star Formation.
Before Wenren Wan departed, she cast a lingering, reluctant glance at Yu Er, then bestowed a final, grateful look upon Mo Hua. As starlight enveloped her and her Primordial Spirit distorted, she was forcefully extracted from the Evil God's nightmare.
The nightmare instantly fell silent.
Mo Hua turned, approaching Yu Er. He saw the child, who had been utilized as a vessel for the Evil God's rebirth, in a pitiful state: the chest split open, the belly torn, and blood oozing from all seven orifices. A soft sigh escaped Mo Hua, his heart filled with compassion.
Yu Er's consciousness was fragmented. As he opened his eyes and beheld Mo Hua, his heart swelled with a fleeting joy, yet tears welled up involuntarily. He spoke tremulously,
"Brother Mo, am I... going to perish..."
Mo Hua's heart ached. He gently patted Yu Er's head, a faint smile gracing his lips. "Fear not, for I am here!"
Beneath Mo Hua's comforting touch, a sense of familiarity and reassurance washed over Yu Er. A subtle light gradually returned to his eyes.
After a moment's contemplation, Mo Hua bit his finger, allowing several drops of luminous, pure golden Divine Marrow to descend upon Yu Er's forehead.
He intended to use this incredibly rare and potent essence of a deity to mend Yu Er's damaged Divine Thought body.
This was the sole method Mo Hua could conceive of to salvage Yu Er.
Divine Marrow, it is known, is the innate essence naturally coalesced from a deity's Dao-infused marrow.
Typically, a cultivator's Primordial Spirit could not process such a substance. However, Yu Er was an anomaly. Having been treated by the Evil God as a nascent form for rebirth, he already harbored a sliver of divinity, enabling him to absorb the very essence of the Divine Law. Through this marrow, born of Heaven and Earth's Dao, his Origin could be repaired, and his Divine Thought body reconstituted. Indeed, as the golden Divine Marrow touched Yu Er's forehead, it began to absorb, seeping into his being and healing his shattered Divine Thought body.
A gentle golden radiance also started to suffuse Yu Er's form.
Mo Hua once more patted Yu Er's head, speaking in a soft tone, "Rest now. When you awaken, this terrible nightmare will have concluded..."
Yu Er nodded obediently, his eyes closing. Enveloped by that comforting and tranquil aura, he drifted into a profound slumber.
While Yu Er slept, the Divine Marrow continued its work, nourishing his Divine Thought.
Witnessing this, Mo Hua finally felt a sense of relief.
"Regardless of what happens, I have at least managed to save this unfortunate child..."
Mo Hua mused internally. Just as he was about to lift Yu Er and depart from this perilous ordeal, his gaze caught something unusual at the periphery, causing him to freeze.
