Shi Xuan's sword radiance was vast and mighty, and the Big Dipper shone brightly. It was as if Shi Xuan's sword could cut through space and time.
The Cloud Immortal Valley was not big, and the Void Mirror's shadow was within a hundred miles of Shi Xuan. The sword radiance cut through the sky in the blink of an eye and landed above the Void Mirror. The surrounding time fluctuated strangely, but it was shattered by the red gourd that flew out from Shi Xuan's body. It could not slow down Shi Xuan's sword radiance.
However, the closer Shi Xuan got to the Void Mirror's shadow, the more he felt that it was unreachable. It was as if it was separated by layers of space and hiding behind countless worlds. The sword radiance cut through the worlds, but it could not get any closer to the Void Mirror's shadow.
"Such a powerful external illusion, almost turning illusions into reality." A thought flashed through Shi Xuan's mind, but it was immediately suppressed by his resolute Taoist heart. He wanted to turn the Tai Chi diagram into the Nirvana Golden Bridge to suppress the changes in the illusion.
When Shi Xuan's sword radiance rose, the brown river surged over, and rays of golden light fell down, trying to stop Shi Xuan. However, the Primeval Dipper and the Nine Tunes Heavenly River Formation, which were almost exactly the same, blocked them.
The mottled golden lights collided and turned into nothingness at the same time. The waves surged and slapped against each other.
With the brown river as the boundary, the left and right sides were like the inside and outside of a bronze mirror, forming a strange scene.
Mo Jingqiu took a step back, and was at a slight disadvantage.
Yan Qingying's attack did not reduce Mo Jingqiu's realm, and even weakened her breath a little.
Even with the help of the Immortal Slaying Flying Knife, Shi Xuan's Three Talents Destruction Sword and "Lady Mother of the Chariot" were still weaker than Yan Qingying's Primeval Dipper and Nine Tunes Heavenly River Formation. In view of the fact that the power of the Great Way of Innate Destiny was the nemesis of all techniques, they were not on the same level, which meant that they had no way of fighting back. Therefore, Shi Xuan and Mo Jingqiu made a decision in a split second. Shi Xuan would break the Void Mirror's shadow while Mo Jingqiu would block Yan Qingying.
Although Yan Qingying's Great Dao of Innate Fate was almost at the ninth level, Mo Jingqiu had obtained the true meaning of the Great Dao. Under the suppression of the Immortal Slaying Flying Saber, the difference in their realms was greatly reduced. Thus, even though the difference between Yan Qingying and Mo Jingqiu was far greater than the difference between her and Shi Xuan, she could only gain the upper hand and weaken Mo Jingqiu. However, she could not make Mo Jingqiu surrender without any resistance.
Yan Qingying was urged by the remaining power of the Void Mirror. Her eyes were red, and she spun the Primeval Dipper again. The mottled light merged into the river and surged forward, suppressing Mo Jingqiu.
Mo Jingqiu's Nine Tunes Heavenly River Formation was gradually defeated. His breath was contaminated, and his cultivation was gradually reduced. As his cultivation decreased, the gap between him and Yan Qingying grew larger. Soon, he was almost defeated and was about to be enveloped by the golden light.
Two rays of light arrived first, piercing through the obstruction of space and landing directly on Yan Qingying's Nine Tunes Heavenly River Formation. Instantly, the light weakened and dimmed, and the rolling waves froze in mid-air. The golden light from the Primeval Dipper froze, and Yan Qingying was slightly stunned.
With this opportunity, Mo Jingqiu quickly retreated and escaped from the range of the mottled golden light.
As soon as he escaped from the mottled golden light, the scholarly Lu Rui completely transformed. His face was expressionless, and his eyes were half-closed. He took a step forward and casually slashed the black and white sword light, making it impossible for Mo Jingqiu to dodge.
Immediately after, the "Fifth Heaven's Blight" covered the Immortal-Slaying Flying Knife. Red, green, yellow, white, and black divine light swept toward Shi Xuan, and countless black insects spat out sand.
At the same time, the five Four Tribulations of the Lord Of Heaven worked together to control the power of time, immediately suppressing the Immortal-Slaying Flying Knife. The time around Shi Xuan, Mo Jingqiu, and the Immortal-Slaying Flying Knife began to change strangely, gradually slowing down.
Shi Xuan was very sensitive to the changes in time. Fortunately, he was prepared to take out the Tai Chi Diagram. Thus, a vast and transcendent golden bridge suddenly flew out from the sword light, suppressing the surrounding time and space to a standstill. Even the many worlds in front of the Void Mirror became like layers of colored glass, like a dream.
The sword light changed, and the dark universe appeared. Countless stars that were projected by the universe lit up, and then they all collapsed and shattered. The void was destroyed, and the layers of glass-like worlds were destroyed together.
The afterimage of the Void Mirror finally appeared in front of Shi Xuan.
But at this time, the suppressive power of the Tai Chi Diagram had also reached its limit. Time and space returned to normal and began to slow down. The five-colored divine light swept down, not giving Shi Xuan a chance to slash out again.
Yan Qingying's Primordial Chaos Golden Dipper recovered from the Immortal-Slaying Flying Knife's freezing. With a gentle spin, the golden light chased after Mo Jingqiu. But before she could, Lu Rui's Divine Sword of Magnetism had already cut through the Primordial Chaos Palm Print that Mo Jingqiu had hurriedly sent out. Just as it was about to hit her, Mo Jingqiu, who was in a state of slow time, had no strength to fight back.
When the Immortal-Slaying Flying Knife saw that the Fifth Celestial Being had weakened, it retreated without thinking. Then, its killing intent surged as it turned into a white knife light, wanting to kill the Perennial Deity once again. But under the suppression of the five great Lord Of Heaven, he, who had not recovered his strength, was abnormally slow.
However, Shi Xuan was not flustered at all. A black talisman that was almost dark appeared in front of him. On it, there was a seal word that seemed to be condensed from blood: "Shatter"!
When the afterimage of the Void Mirror completely appeared in front of Shi Xuan, Shi Xuan immediately locked onto its aura and used the Karma Pill Tome.
When the black talisman appeared, it seemed to not be affected by the slow time and spontaneously combusted. An illusion was an illusion after all. Just like the Candle Dragon, it did not deliberately control time to suppress the strange power of karma. Of course, this was also because none of the great mediums who had come to the Cosmic Cauldron were mainly karma techniques.
When the Karma Pill Tome burned, the afterimage of the Void Mirror silently shattered into two halves.
After mobilizing the five great Lord Of Heaven and setting up layers of illusions in front of him, the power of the afterimage of the Void Mirror had been reduced to its lowest point. Facing the Karma Pill Tome of the Eighth Level, it was caught off guard and naturally had no power to resist.
The Five Colored Divine Light that had already brushed past Shi Xuan's body, the Sand Shooting Shadow that had almost hit Shi Xuan, the Divine Swords of Magnetism that had broken through Mo Jingqiu's protective Heavenly Abode power, the Fifth Heaven's Blight, the Primordial Chaos Golden Dipper, and the Nine Tunes Heavenly River Formation all shattered like a mirror. Countless cracks appeared on them, and in the blink of an eye, they turned into rays of light and disappeared without a trace.
This kind of shattering instantly spread. The Perennial Deity, Bai Ze, Lu Rui, Mu Yang, and Yan Qingying all had confused expressions as they dissipated like reflections in the water.
Witnessing this scene, Mo Jingqiu sighed softly.
Very soon, the entire world shattered, revealing the truth behind it. It was a boundless primeval forest. However, in the forest, there were no birds, beasts, fish, insects, humans, demons, or ghosts. Other than the sound of the wind, there was only silence.
Shi Xuan and Mo Jingqiu were on a tall ancient tree. At the root of the tree, there was a small tree hole. Inside the hole, there was an invisible force of Taixu. The force was tumbling, trying to gather together.
The thing hidden inside the Cosmic Cauldron was mainly because only a few people knew about it. Other people couldn't even find the Cosmic Cauldron itself. In addition, there were countless worlds inside the Cosmic Cauldron. Even Daozu would have to spend tens of thousands of years to go through all of them. Therefore, it didn't matter where the treasure was hidden in the world. Taixu Daozu chose a forest world and casually threw the Cosmic Mirror into a tree hole. He added a few restrictions to prevent the living beings inside the Cosmic Cauldron from obtaining it.
Shi Xuan looked around. "Fellow Daoist Mo, where's the exit?"
"Hmm, I can already clearly sense the location of the imprint. It's in a giant tree not far away." Mo Jingqiu pointed a hundred feet away.
The two didn't dare to delay and immediately headed toward the giant tree.
When they arrived in front of the giant tree, just as Shi Xuan and Mo Jingqiu were about to step into the exit, they turned back to look at the tree hole where the Cosmic Mirror's shadow was.
The formless Taixu power finally gathered and transformed into a mirror. However, it was much dimmer than before. Then, a cold light flashed on the surface of the mirror, and the entire primeval forest was once again enveloped by the Taixu Land.
In the Yunzhong Valley, after the distortion, a Shi Xuan and a Mo Jingqiu appeared. The two joined forces and attacked Bai Ze together with Yan Qingying.
The Perennial Deity, Lu Rui, and Mu Yang were either dead or still in the sect.
Yan Qingying didn't expect to actually meet Bai Ze. He was indeed good at finding loopholes in people's hearts. Fortunately, she followed him.
Bai Ze was in a daze. He didn't understand why he would suddenly appear in the Yunzhong Valley when he was in the Cangyu Mountains. However, before he could figure out the situation, Yan Qingying, "Shi Xuan," and "Mo Jingqiu" worked together and killed him by the Immortal Flying Knife.
"Shi Xuan" and "Mo Jingqiu" cupped their hands and said, "Thank you for your help, Sect Leader."
"I should be thanking you for being able to kill Bai Ze and get rid of a great threat." Yan Qingying's elegant face relaxed and revealed a sincere smile. "Alright, if you've taken what you want, let's return to the sect together."
Stepping out of the giant tree, Mo Jingqiu said doubtfully, "That's good too. But why wasn't Bai Ze moved back to where he was like Lu Rui and Mu Yang?"
"It should be that after I's attack, the Void Mirror's afterimage was injured and lost some of its power. It could only maintain the existence of three Fourth Tribulation Lord Of Heaven, so it had to borrow Yan Qingying's hand to get rid of Bai Ze." Shi Xuan looked at the phantom "Shi Xuan" with a smile. Its abilities were all things that he had displayed before, and they were not. As for those that he had not used, such as the Yin and Yang Dust, the Six Paths of Reincarnation, and the Five Elements Immortal Vanquishing Sword, there were no signs at all.
Mo Jingqiu nodded slightly and sighed. "To them, the illusory is the real. The people of the outside world are often tainted and blinded by countless desires. It is difficult for them to see the 'truth' in themselves. This might be another kind of illusory."
"Only by seeing one's nature can one see the 'truth'." Shi Xuan also felt a little emotional. Ever since he had formed the Essence Soul, although his Dao Heart had become clearer and had grown, there did not seem to be any substantial changes. It was not like before he had formed the Essence Soul, where he was firm on his path and saw his nature step by step. He was no longer an ordinary person. Could it be that the fifth Heaven's Blight was in this aspect?
Combined with some of the thoughts from the thousand years of meditation, Shi Xuan felt that he had touched upon the mysteries of the fifth Heaven's Blight, but he could not break through that layer of paper no matter what.
As the two of them conversed, they disappeared from this world.
…
In the Misty Cloud Valley, rays of light suddenly flew out from some birds and beasts, forming a beautiful woman with a sweet smile.
She was wearing a black dress and looked even more refined. She looked in the direction that Shi Xuan and Mo Jingqiu had left and muttered to herself regretfully, "I let them leave safely. Bai Ze is really useless. I tried to provoke him and make him feel that Shi Xuan was extremely dangerous. When he escaped, I even helped him sense the arrival of Shi Xuan and Mo Jingqiu. In the end, it was all for naught. I didn't manage to exhaust the Connate slaughter aura in Shi Xuan's body, so I didn't dare to attack.
"Fortunately, I left this Fourth Tribulation incarnation behind. Otherwise, I would have been fooled by Jing Qiu." The beautiful woman held her forehead with her right hand and felt rather fortunate. "The Universe Cauldron's connection with the outside world is very slow. I wonder when my main body will receive the news."
She estimated the distance and waited for a while before chasing after Shi Xuan and Mo Jingqiu.
