Chapter 820 Cutting Down the Secret
Chapter 820 Cutting Down the Secret
The moment Yun Yao and Chu Mochen's swords clashed, yin and yang energies stirred a turbulent vortex within the Grand Illusionary Realm. The patterns on the Jinghong and Hanyuan swords twisted as if alive, their radiant light illuminating the Heavenly Dao chessboard held by the Pavilion Master of the Tianji Pavilion. The chess pieces, previously moving constantly on the board, began to twist and deform.
The Pavilion Master's face, enveloped by the power of Heaven, finally revealed itself. It bore the resemblance of the stone statue of the Heavenly Dao guardian from the Taixu Ancient Temple. Twelve golden halos spun frantically behind him, each entwined with dense chains. The ends of these chains extended throughout the illusion, firmly controlling the puppets and formations of the Tianji Pavilion. "Just you? You dare to shake the Heavenly Dao? How can you, ants, overturn the rules of the Three Thousand Divine Realms?" The Pavilion Master waved his hand, and countless golden rays shot forth from the chessboard, transforming into divine patterns of Heavenly Dao, enveloping Yun Yao and Chu Mochen.
Facing the overwhelming onslaught, Yun Yao and Chu Mochen exchanged a glance and nodded in tacit agreement. Chu Mochen pointed his sword at the sky, his Hanyuan Sword emitting a piercing chill. Wherever it passed, space froze, leaving spiderweb-like cracks. Yun Yao lightly danced with the Jinghong Sword, its shadows like butterflies. Each ray of sword light contained the power of the Chaos Dao Body, blending with the cold air. The combined power of the two swords, forming the "Taixu Yin Yang Slash," instantly increased dozens of times in power, like a yin-yang fish swimming through the void, shattering golden light wherever it passed.
The villagers of the fishing village nervously watched this thrilling battle. The old village chief clenched his cane, his eyes filled with worry. The young villagers beside him, though weaker in strength, resolutely channeled their spiritual energy into their swords. "The fairy saved us back then. Today, even if it costs us our lives, we will lend a helping hand!" one villager shouted, and the others responded. Suddenly, countless streams of spiritual energy converged into a river, pouring into the twin swords.
Seeing the situation was dire, the Pavilion Master's expression suddenly changed. He formed hand seals with his hands and muttered, "Heaven's Law, the universe is reversed!" The Heavenly Law chessboard suddenly floated above his head, erupting in a dazzling light. Ancient runes emerged from the light, forming a massive barrier that firmly blocked the "Taixu Yin-Yang Slash." "Hahahaha, you think you can defeat me like this? This chessboard is made of fragments of the Heavenly Law. How can you easily break it?" The Pavilion Master's arrogant laughter echoed in the illusion.
Just when everyone was in trouble, the system in Yun Yao's body suddenly issued an urgent alarm: "It is detected that the host's power in the Void Dao Realm has not been fully activated. If you force a breakthrough, it may cause the meridians to be broken, but this is the only chance!" Yun Yao gritted her teeth, and a trace of determination flashed in her eyes. She remembered every bit of her experience with Chu Mochen, and those partners who never left her in times of trouble. "I can't lose!" She roared in her heart.
Yun Yao closed her eyes and concentrated on practicing the "Nine Transformations of the Great Void" technique. The spiritual energy within her body surged like a raging tide. Golden lines began to appear on her skin, spreading along her meridians as if alive. Chu Mochen sensed the change in Yun Yao's aura and was alarmed: "Yun Yao, no! This is too dangerous!" However, Yun Yao did not hesitate. She poured all her strength into the Jinghong Sword, and the Hanyuan Sword automatically resonated with it, the brilliance of the two swords reaching an unprecedented height.
"Break it!" Yun Yao's eyes suddenly opened, a chaotic light flashing in them. She unleashed the "Taixu Yin-Yang Slash" with a surge of power, piercing through the Heavenly Dao barrier and slashing towards the Pavilion Master. The Pavilion Master's face drastically changed, and he hurriedly used his secret technique to try to dodge the fatal blow. However, the power of the twin swords was unstoppable, and the Pavilion Master's left arm was severed in the sword light, blood spilling onto the Heavenly Dao chessboard.
The chess pieces representing Yun Yao and Chu Mochen shattered simultaneously on the chessboard, and the Pavilion Master let out a shrill cry: "Impossible! I've carefully planned this for a thousand years, how could I be defeated by you!" His body began to become ethereal, clearly severely injured. However, just when everyone thought victory was in sight, a sinister glint flashed in the Pavilion Master's eyes. He suddenly pressed his shattered left arm onto the chessboard, muttering: "Since I can't achieve this, then let the whole world be buried with me! Heaven's Path Self-Destruction, Start!"
Yun Yao and Chu Mochen's expressions suddenly changed. They felt a force destructive to the heavens and earth gathering on the chessboard. "Everyone, hurry up!" Yun Yao shouted, casting a spell, trying to lead the villagers out of the illusion. However, the force of Tiandao's self-destruction spread rapidly, encircling everyone in an instant.
At the critical moment, Xiao Cui (the Fairy of Karma) suddenly rushed out, her Karma whisk radiating brilliantly as she unleashed the forbidden technique "Karma Reincarnation" in an attempt to slow the force of the Heavenly Dao's self-destruction. "Master, take everyone away! I'll stop him!" Xiao Cui's voice was filled with determination. Yun Yao looked at Xiao Cui with mixed feelings. She had never expected that Xiao Cui, who had once betrayed her, would stand up for her at this critical moment.
"No! Let's go together!" Yun Yao tried to pull Xiao Cui with her, but Chu Mochen stopped her. "It's too late! We must first ensure the safety of the villagers!" Yun Yao gritted her teeth, tears welling in her eyes, and quickly fled with the villagers. The moment they left, the Heavenly Dao chessboard exploded, and the powerful blast swept Xiao Cui away. Her figure gradually dissipated in the light, leaving only a faint "Master, see you in the next life..."
After the explosion, the Grand Illusionary Realm began to crumble, countless cracks appearing in the sky, and space became extremely unstable. Yun Yao and Chu Mochen, along with the villagers, fled the illusionary realm in a panic, only to discover that the outside world of cultivation had been shattered beyond recognition. Shattered fragments of the Heavenly Dao floated in the sky, and the ground was riddled with cracks. Once-thriving sects and cities were now reduced to ruins.
"Is this the consequence of the collapse of the Heavenly Dao..." Yun Yao looked at the tragic scene before her, her heart filled with guilt. She thought that by defeating the head of the Tianji Pavilion, she could save the world, but she didn't expect to trigger such a serious disaster. Chu Mochen held her hand and comforted her, "This is not your fault, it's the conspiracy of the old man Tiandao. We will definitely find a way to repair the world."
At this moment, the system's voice sounded again: "The chaotic energy has been detected to be spreading. If it is not stopped in time, the entire world will be swallowed by chaos. But at the same time, clues about Yun Hualei have been detected. Perhaps this is the key to repairing the world." Yun Yao raised her head, hope rekindled in her eyes: "Let's go! No matter how many difficulties lie ahead, we must find Yun Hualei and save this world!"
Chu Mochen nodded, and the two of them led the villagers in a new direction. They knew that the challenges ahead would be even more difficult, but as long as they were together, no difficulty was insurmountable. While the head of the Tianji Pavilion had been temporarily defeated, the threat of Elder Tiandao remained, and the secrets of the Three Thousand God Realms had yet to be fully uncovered. A new adventure had just begun...
