Chapter 794 Chu Mochen's Sacrifice for Life
Chapter 794 Chu Mochen's Sacrifice for Life
The dome of Hongmeng Palace exploded with a bang, and a dark purple thunderstorm, like a churning abyss, surged and roared within the clouds. Yun Yao gazed up at the storm overhead, poised to engulf her. The Heaven-Defying Fate Coil hovered around her, emitting a brilliant light that contrasted sharply with the surrounding darkness. The entrance to the Rule Realm lay before her, a vortex of countless golden runes, mysterious and alluring, as if containing the deepest secrets of the universe.
She took a deep breath, slowly raised her foot, and was about to step over the sacred threshold. However, at this critical moment, a familiar and firm roar exploded like thunder: "Yao'er!"
Yun Yao turned sharply, only to see a figure streaking across the sky like a meteor, shattering the numerous restrictions of Hongmeng Palace and hurtling towards her. It was Chu Mochen! His hair was tangled in the raging energy storm, and his rustling robes were covered in rips, each one revealing the immense pressure he had endured as he broke free from the restrictions. His eyes burned with the fiery twin flames of his soul, a flame that held not only deep affection for Yun Yao but also a reckless determination.
"Chu Mochen, you're crazy!" Yun Yao's voice was filled with shock and worry. She knew that with Chu Mochen's current Void Realm cultivation, forcing his way into this Rule Realm entry point would undoubtedly be a death trap. The pressure here was enough to completely crush his soul.
Chu Mochen, however, didn't care. A gentle yet resolute smile played on his lips. He reached out and grasped Yun Yao's hand tightly. The warmth of his palm, transmitted through their skin, made Yun Yao's heart tremble. "We agreed to fight side by side. How can you leave me behind?" His voice was deep and powerful, every word filled with unquestionable determination.
Yun Yao could clearly feel the violent tremors in Chu Mochen's soul, a tremor on the verge of collapse. Her heart was filled with endless emotion and self-blame, and her eyes instantly moistened. "Why are you doing this..." she said, choking with sobs.
At that moment, Yun Yao suddenly recalled the final chapter of the Hongmeng Fragments. The words flashed through her mind like lightning: "The Rule Realm requires a 'unique cause and effect' as its foundation." Her gaze fell on their clasped hands, and a sudden clarity dawned on her. Yes, their bond spanning seventeen lifetimes, their unforgettable love, wasn't that the product of this unique cause and effect?
She interlocked her fingers with Chu Mochen's, unreservedly injecting the power of the Twin Soul Fires into the access lines beneath her feet. In an instant, the entire Hongmeng Palace shook violently, and the golden lines twisted and spread like a living thing, emitting a dazzling light.
However, just when they thought everything was going smoothly, something unexpected happened. A pitch-black crack quietly appeared in the void, and from it stretched out a massive black hand, carrying an aura of destruction, it grabbed towards Chu Mochen. Wherever the black hand passed, space shattered, emitting a teeth-grinding tearing sound.
"Be careful!" Yun Yao exclaimed, trying to pull Chu Mochen behind her, but found that her body became extremely heavy under this powerful force. She realized that this evil hand did not come from the outside world, but was a punishment from the Rule Realm for Chu Mochen's forced entry.
Chu Mochen, however, showed no fear. With a roar, twelve pairs of wings blazing with infernal flames suddenly spread out from behind him, his Candle Dragon bloodline erupting completely. Dragon scales covered his entire body, his pupils shimmered into vertical lines, and in his hand, a halberd emanating a fierce aura condensed. "Come!" he roared, charging towards the black hand.
The halberd and the black hand collided, unleashing an earth-shattering roar. Powerful energy waves spread outward, blasting massive holes through the walls of Hongmeng Palace. Blood streamed from the corners of Chu Mochen's mouth, but his gaze remained unwavering. He swung his halberd, attacking the black hand repeatedly, attempting to repel it.
Yun Yao was terrified. She knew that in Chu Mochen's current state, he couldn't withstand this force for long. She gritted her teeth, summoning all the strength within her body, unleashing the power of the Heaven-Defying Fate Disk to its fullest extent. "Break it!" she cried delicately, and the Three Thousand Worlds' Origin light on the Heaven-Defying Fate Disk shone brightly, transforming into a dazzling blade of light that slashed towards the black hand.
The light blade and the black hand clashed fiercely. For a moment, light and darkness intertwined, and energy and laws collided. Throughout this thrilling battle, Yun Yao and Chu Mochen's eyes remained tightly locked, their hearts held only one belief: to be together, no matter what.
Just as the two sides were deadlocked, the black hand suddenly split into countless tiny tentacles, wrapping around Chu Mochen and Yun Yao. These tentacles contained a powerful corrosive force, and wherever they touched, the air was corroded into black holes.
Seeing this, Chu Mochen unhesitatingly shielded Yun Yao behind him, using his own body to block most of the tentacles' attacks. Wounds instantly appeared on his body, and blood gushed out, staining his robes red. But he gritted his teeth and didn't utter a single scream.
"No!" Yun Yao was devastated, her heart filled with anger and resentment. A faint golden light shone in her eyes, and the power of the Rule Fate Plate was fully awakened at that moment. Her consciousness seemed to be connected to the entire universe, and she could clearly feel every flow of energy and the direction of every causal line.
She pointed, and the tentacles, as if drawn by some powerful force, changed direction and entangled themselves with Black Hand's body. Black Hand roared in frustration, trying to break free from the tentacles, but found his strength steadily weakening.
Yun Yao seized the opportunity to inject the power of the Twin Soul Fires into the access lines once again. The golden lines glowed brightly, forming a massive golden vortex. A powerful suction force emanated from the vortex, sucking the black hand and all of its tentacles into it.
The black hand screamed miserably in the vortex, and eventually turned into a wisp of green smoke and dissipated into the void. At this time, Chu Mochen had collapsed to the ground weakly, his eyes closed, his face as pale as paper, without a trace of blood.
"Chu Mochen!" Yun Yao hurriedly squatted down and hugged Chu Mochen in her arms, tears streaming down her face. She stroked Chu Mochen's face with trembling hands, her heart filled with self-blame and guilt. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry..." She kept muttering to herself.
Just when Yun Yao thought Chu Mochen had passed out, he slowly opened his eyes, a gentle smile still in his eyes. "Silly girl, why are you crying? I'm still here, aren't I?" His voice was weak and hoarse, but it warmed Yun Yao's heart.
Yun Yao burst into laughter, hugging Chu Mochen tightly, afraid that he would disappear if she let go. "Don't take risks like this again, do you hear me?" she said, choking back tears.
Chu Mochen nodded gently. He leaned into Yun Yao's arms, feeling her warmth. "As long as I can be with you, I'm willing to take any risk," he said softly.
At that moment, the ground suddenly erupted with brilliant golden light, and the two figures were sucked into the gate of the Rule Realm. In that light, their figures gradually blurred, yet they remained tightly connected. Meanwhile, the Heaven-Defying Fate Disk quietly hovered in the Hongmeng Palace. Finally complete, its surface emanated a soft and mysterious light, as if bearing witness to their love story spanning seventeen lifetimes, and foreshadowing the new chapter they were about to begin.
