Chapter 2023: Chapter 970: Slaying Evil (Part 3) The tide of demon monsters was halted abruptly, the resentful souls and fierce ghosts scattered. The evil qi of the Divine Temple subsided. The evil embryo was completely cut off from its supply. The shadow of the Divine Authority Tree gradually disappeared. Mo Hua, having accomplished all this, rose from the White Bone Throne and looked down at the evil embryo in the center of the temple, his eyes filled with killing intent. "Now, you’re doomed!" The evil embryo roared in fury, an abnormal scream, yet to no avail. Mo Hua grasped the air, manifesting the Sever Gold Sword, and attacked the evil embryo again. Lord Yellow Mountain activated his divine thought, controlling the body of the evil embryo. For the evil embryo, this was truly an "external worry and internal trouble". Meanwhile, with the Divine Authority Tree occupied by Mo Hua, the power of the demon monster was severed, leaving the evil embryo in a "helpless isolation". Appearances aside, the evil embryo became a shell, strong in appearance but weak inside. The ensuing battle remained arduous, with Mo Hua growing ever more valiant despite his wounds, and Lord Yellow Mountain’s golden light becoming more intense. Finally, the forces of righteousness and evil within the evil embryo reached a critical point. The blood glow of the evil embryo and the golden light of Lord Yellow Mountain occupied nearly equal halves, left and right. Lord Yellow Mountain wanted to break away, but bound by flesh, he couldn’t divide, nor could he further control the entire evil body. The two remained in a stalemate. At this moment, Mo Hua called out, "Mountain Lord, let me assist you!" He pointed with two fingers, revealing a golden formation, layer upon layer, locking Lord Yellow Mountain together with the evil embryo. Then Mo Hua grasped the air with both hands, raised above his head, his gaze focused, his entire demeanor transformed, gathering a grand and vast sword intent between his palms. Lord Yellow Mountain’s pupils trembled. An all-too-familiar memory from the divine soul gradually awakened. "This is..." Tai Xu God-Slaying Sword?! The ultimate sword form of the True Sword transforming technique of Tai Xu Divine Thought?! Wasn’t this sword technique only comprehended by the aged cultivators who’ve spent centuries understanding the Sword Dao within the Taixu Gate? How could he have learned it at such a young age?! For a moment, Lord Yellow Mountain found it hard to believe. He quickly realized this technique from Mo Hua differed somewhat from the one that struck him years before. That sword of the past contained the ancient and pure Tai Xu Sword Intent, flowing like the stars. Yet Mo Hua’s sword was too complex. The sword mixed countless chaotic components within. Containing formations, Sword Dao, Five Elements, Tai Xu Sword Intent, even a hint of unfeeling and a law of Dao that bewildered and intrigued even Lord Yellow Mountain as a deity... "How can this be... the Heavenly Demon?!" Lord Yellow Mountain was struck speechless. The evil embryo split between righteousness and evil, unnaturally bound, temporarily controlled by the formation, with endless demon monsters gone, now within the Divine Temple, nobody able to stop Mo Hua from gathering this sword. Sever Gold, Guishui, Mountain Opening, Li Fire Sword Array fused as one. The ancient Tai Xu Sword Intent roared mightily. The Heavenly Demon Path that cuts emotions and self, sharpens the sword edge endlessly. Boundless killing intent condensed in Mo Hua’s hands. Even the already deceased evil embryo felt terror and unease. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎 "Slash!" As the law spun, the Tai Xu God-Slaying Sword fully condensed, its radiance dazzling, Mo Hua’s gaze resolute, he softly commanded, then forcefully slashed. With the Five Elements swirling, the giant Tai Xu God-Slaying Sword, merging array and sword, exploded in brilliance, like the inverse descent of a celestial river, crashing down mightily. In an instant, blinding sword rays poured down, striking the center of the evil embryo. Under such astonishing Divine Thought Sword Dao, the evil embryo at the peak of the third-grade realm couldn’t withstand it, its evil god body beginning to fracture bit by bit. Skin tough as armor, repeatedly chewed and torn by sword qi, twisted in a slaughter. The Tai Xu Sword Intent surged powerfully. If one sword qi couldn’t cut through, then ten, a hundred, even a thousand would be used. Apart from sword qi, the power of Sever Gold, Guishui, Li Fire and other Five Elements formations flowed incessantly. Once an opening was made, the Heavenly Demon Path would exploit it, completely eradicating vitality... Ultimately, myriad sword rays blossomed, astonishing sword intent erupted, like a tsunami ravaging, causing the entire Divine Temple to tremble perilously. When the waves of this incredible sword intent spread out, Master Gu and others outside the Divine Temple couldn’t help but turn pale with fright. Most shocked of all was Xun Ziyou. Especially that sword intent, familiar yet foreign, powerful enough to make one’s heart palpitate, changing his expression drastically, in disbelief. "Could it be... Tai Xu Divine Thought into sword True Jue?!" "The Divine Thought Sword Technique, sealed for hundreds of years within the Taixu Gate and labeled as a forbidden technique?" "Impossible..." "Wasn’t this sword technique already lost?" "Who on earth is wielding it?" "It couldn’t possibly... be Mo Hua, could it?" Xun Ziyou gasped, trembling all over.
