Chapter 1231 Seventh Finger Returns to Mortality
"Whether we can leave or not, we have to go now." No sooner had Mo Wuji spoken these words than the Chaos Protecting Array began to hum and rumble. Strands of unfamiliar Dao rhythm began to seep in, and at this moment, not only Qu You but even Cen Shuyin felt a sense of impending death.
Mo Wuji raised his hand and punched towards the location of his Mortal Halberd. The space erupted in tremors, but the space remained unmoved.
Mo Wuji's heart sank; his plan had failed.
Originally, he had placed the Mortal Halberd at the entrance of this Chaos Trapping Array, intending to tear open the array using its power once he could connect with it. Now, he couldn't even crack it slightly, so how could he communicate with the Mortal Halberd?
Opening his spiritual eye, Mo Wuji could clearly see the Dao patterns within the Chaos Trapping Array shifting. With his insight, he knew that these Dao patterns were gradually being refined by someone. Once all the Dao patterns in this space were refined, he would have no chance of escaping.
Cen Shuyin and Qu You were too weak; not only could they not help, but even if they went all out in this Chaos Trapping Array, they couldn't shake it in the slightest.
"Shuyin, Qu You, as soon as a crack appears here, you must open your minds to me so I can send you away." Mo Wuji prepared to use the Seven World Finger in succession to bombard the Chaos Trapping Array. As long as he could blast open a tiny crack, he could connect with the Mortal World and send Cen Shuyin and Qu You away.
Only after sending Cen Shuyin and Qu You away could he fully focus on dealing with Luo.
"Okay, we understand." Cen Shuyin's mind was entirely on Mo Wuji at this moment. She only regretted that her cultivation was still lacking. If she were a Quasi-Sage now, she might be able to help Mo Wuji somewhat.
What she didn't know was that even if she were a Quasi-Sage, she couldn't help Mo Wuji now.
After instructing Cen Shuyin and Qu You, Mo Wuji frantically unleashed the Seven World Finger.
Except for the seventh finger, Returning to Mortality, which Mo Wuji couldn't comprehend, he cast the other six fingers back and forth countless times. But no matter whether he cast a single finger of the Seven World Finger or cast the six fingers in succession, he couldn't do anything to the Chaos Trapping Array.
Months passed, and in addition to using various divine abilities, Mo Wuji also used self-detonating attack formations. However, the Chaos Space was only shaken by his bombardments, without the slightest sign of cracking.
Sensing Mo Wuji's anxiety, Cen Shuyin took the initiative to walk to Mo Wuji's side, embraced his arm, and said, "Wuji, if fate doesn't allow us to leave, let's just be husband and wife here. Even if it's just for one day, it's better than being separated by the cosmic void for tens of thousands of years."
Mo Wuji's heart trembled. He stopped carving array patterns and suddenly remembered a long time ago when he and Xia Ruoyin leaned against the edge of a field, quietly listening to the sounds of summer insects.
At that time, everything was secondary to him; he only wanted the peace and warmth before him. He also thought of Wen Xiaoqi. While he was leaning on Xia Ruoyin, the girl who loved him to the core, was she secretly hiding in the distance, watching him and thinking that if she could be with him, even for one day, she would be satisfied?
He had once thought that if he and Shuyin stayed together, how could a short time be enough? So he needed to constantly cultivate and increase his lifespan, preferably to be together forever.
His spiritual eye opened, and it was clear that this space was about to be completely refined. At most, it would take only a day or two, or perhaps even be refined in the next moment.
In such a short time, even if he exhausted all his strength, he wouldn't be able to open this trapping array and leave.
In that case, why should he waste time? Why not give the remaining time to Shuyin?
Just as Shuyin said, since they couldn't be together forever, it would be good even if they enjoyed half a breath of the peace they had waited tens of thousands of years for.
Mo Wuji's mind suddenly cleared. He stopped carving array patterns, took Shuyin's hand, and felt completely calm.
"Wuji, I regret something." Cen Shuyin sat on the ground next to Mo Wuji, her voice like a murmur from the edge of the sky.
"What do you regret?"
"In the Lost Continent, I regretted separating from you back then. At that time, I should have ventured with you and become a rogue cultivator..."
"We weren't familiar back then."
"If we had been together back then, maybe our children would be grown up by now..."
"Shuyin, I was too obsessed. In fact, being together like mortals for a few decades might not be unhappy. I've cultivated the Mortal Dao, but I didn't even understand this, and wasted months attacking this Chaos Trapping Array..."
"Mm..." Cen Shuyin didn't want to say another word. At this moment, leaning in Mo Wuji's arms was the happiest thing for her.
"Crack!" At the same time Mo Wuji spoke these words, something seemed to break in his Dao rhythm, and his mind suddenly cleared.
His divine thought actually broke through this Chaos Trapping Array space and landed in the vast, boundless universe.
"I understand!" Mo Wuji suddenly stood up, grabbed Cen Shuyin's hand, and unleashed a finger strike.
Seven World Finger, the seventh finger, Returning to Mortality!
Waves of Dao rhythm were blasted out by this finger. It seemed to unleash the most majestic power in the entire universe, yet it also seemed to be the most ordinary finger in the entire universe.
There are distinctions between realms in the universe, high and low, simply because he hasn't completely reached that realm. Once he reaches that realm, everything, in his eyes, will be no different from the mortal world.
The Chaos Trapping Array is just a Chaos Trapping Array for ordinary cultivators. If one surpasses that level, the Chaos Trapping Array is no longer called the Chaos Trapping Array.
"Crack!" The Chaos Trapping Array that Mo Wuji had bombarded for months without making a dent was torn open by a crack under this finger.
Mo Wuji saw his Mortal Halberd.
……
"Haha! It's been refined, everyone attack together... Not good..." No sooner had Luo called on everyone to attack together than he discovered a crack in the Chaos Trapping Array he had refined.
A halberd carrying a monstrous killing intent descended from the void, as if to tear the entire universe in half.
"Boom! Crack, crack, crack!" The entire universe seemed to be torn apart, revealing a terrifyingly thin crack.
"Everyone attack together!" Luo roared, and the Creation Sword transformed into millions of zhang of sword light, sweeping towards Mo Wuji's Mortal Halberd radiance.
"Brother Mo, I feel like the universe is trembling, as if everything will be destroyed." Qu You, who was following behind Mo Wuji, said with a pale face.
"Hurry in..." Mo Wuji said a few words, then raised his hand and sent Qu You and Cen Shuyin into the Mortal World. At this level of battle, they couldn't help at all. More than a hundred experts had arrived here, with the weakest cultivation being Quasi-Sage level.
He also felt what Qu You said. This was indeed the void, but he felt that the void was collapsing and everything was becoming unstable.
The sound of the universe shattering cracked open, and the Dao radiance of the Creation Sword and the Mortal Halberd overflowed.
When these overflowing rays tore out fine cracks in the universe, Mo Wuji's heart sank. He knew what the World-Ending Cataclysm was, and he knew that the World-Ending Cataclysm had truly arrived.
Even the cosmic void was collapsing, and there was no possibility of existence for any interface. Sure enough, when his divine thought permeated out, there was no obstruction in this collapsing void. He clearly saw one cultivation star after another collapsing. Countless cultivators fell into the void, but the void was also collapsing. Once the void completely collapsed, the cultivators who fell into the void would also completely collapse.
Mo Wuji's heart turned cold. Was this the World-Ending Cataclysm? This was simply destroying everything! Even the universe was collapsing; what else could exist?
"The World-Ending Cataclysm has arrived! Everyone, kill him before the universe is destroyed! Every Creation Treasure on him can allow everyone to survive in the World-Ending Cataclysm. As long as we wait hundreds of millions of years, a new Chaos will be born..." Luo roared, and the Creation Sword transformed into billions of sword qi, beginning to strangle Mo Wuji's domain.
Mo Wuji's heart trembled. Luo was many times stronger than Tai Luan and others? Could it be that Luo had crossed the Saint realm and reached above the Saint realm?
But this was no time for him to think. Six experts, including Luo Xu, Tai Luan, Qing Yuan, Ti Fo, Heng Zuo, and Yuan Jie, who were equivalent to Saints, were besieging him, along with Luo, who far surpassed the Saint realm. And that's not counting the hundreds of Quasi-Sages or Perfection God Realm experts attacking him from the periphery.
In an instant, countless divine ability rules swept towards Mo Wuji, countless magic treasures bombarded Mo Wuji. Countless domain rules made this void more solid than the most solid realm.
