Chapter 914: The Instantaneous Change of Causality

~11 min read 2,181 words

Mo frowned.

Yet he saw, strands of life-and-death Qi intertwining and erupting within the body of Mu Yun Hai.

Sizzle!

The massive dog body suddenly split open, and a gargantuan head emerged.

"Trying to escape?" Mo sneered, and as he struck out with one hand, a beam of white light erupted from the deep seabed, blocking Mo's palm.

And then, he saw.

Within the Sea of Malice, a whirlpool appeared.

A figure clad in silver battle armor burst forth.

"The Penal Lord of Ash Tracks!"

Ruan Qingwu exclaimed.

That suddenly appearing silver battle armor was clearly the last of the three Penal Lords, the Penal Lord of Ash Tracks.

But at this moment, the figure of the Penal Lord of Ash Tracks flew toward Mu Yun Hai, and as the helmet lifted, inside was actually a head composed of life-and-death Qi.

The next moment.

Mu Yun Hai's head merged into the head of the Penal Lord of Ash Tracks.

Boom!

Life-and-death Qi erupted, endless silver light shook the heavens, and vast life-and-death Qi exploded upon the physical body of the Penal Lord of Ash Tracks.

Stretching out endlessly.

A look of intoxication appeared on Mu Yun Hai's face.

At this moment.

He and the Penal Lord of Ash Tracks became one.

At the same time.

Within the gray fog world created by 【Unity】.

The figure of Mu Yun Hai, originally ranked forty-eighth, shifted illusorily and appeared in the thirtieth seat.

A shocking scene was born.

The brows beneath the masks of both Ruan Qingwu and the Penal Lord of Broken Sins furrowed.

Mo's pupils contracted violently; he had not expected this scene to occur.

Mu Yun Hai covered his face with one hand and chuckled aloud:

"Endure what others cannot endure, and obtain what others cannot obtain."

He laughed out loud, his black hair fluttering, his gaze peering through his fingers:

"Finally... finally, I am whole!

Hahahaha!"

He pointed at Mo:

"You thought you were the one who found me!"

He then pointed at Ruan Qingwu:

"You thought your concealment array could shield everything."

He laughed out loud, feeling exceptionally refreshed at this moment.

This entire play had been designed by him all along.

It was all to allow his other avatar, the Penal Lord of Ash Tracks, to arrive.

Likewise, to tell Zhu Ming the location of Chen Yan.

To let Zhu Ming take Chen Yan away.

Whether Zhu Ming could kill Chen Yan, Mu Yun Hai did not know.

But Mu Yun Hai knew that if Chen Yan were here, he would certainly ruin his plans.

Clap, clap, clap!

The sound of applause rang out.

Mu Yun Hai frowned and looked behind him.

He saw Mo wearing a cold sneer:

"So the Penal Lord of Ash Tracks was your avatar all along; you are quite good at hiding."

Mu Yun Hai smiled faintly and looked at Ruan Qingwu:

"Qingwu, let the three of us join forces to deal with Mo, and afterward, we shall join forces to deal with Lord Wuhen and Xuan Yi."

Mu Yun Hai's voice fell.

The next moment.

Whoosh!

Behind Ruan Qingwu, countless flowers suddenly bloomed, the power of rules intertwined, and the red flowers lunged toward Mu Yun Hai.

The Penal Lord of Broken Sins produced a long spear in his hand, took a step forward, and the shadow of the spear spanned the heavens and earth.

Mo reached out with one hand, ink dripped from the firmament, and the rules of causality crushed toward Mu Yun Hai.

In an instant, Mu Yun Hai went from the weakest to the strongest.

Without needing to consult one another, Ruan Qingwu and Mo had already made the decision to strike at Mu Yun Hai simultaneously.

"Poisonous woman!" Mu Yun Hai roared, then looked at the Penal Lord of Broken Sins again:

"Sycophant!"

The gloom on his face vanished in an instant, and the patterns on the silver battle armor suddenly lit up.

Hundreds of millions of auras of birth and destruction burst forth from within his body, transforming into a surging River of Karma that circled around him.

The next instant.

Mu Yun Hai reached out with one hand, and blood-colored chains pierced out from the void.

One hundred and eight thousand chains twisted and killed like living creatures, turning a radius of ten thousand miles into a scarlet purgatory.

The long spear in the hand of the Sin-Shattering Law Lord was entangled by the chains, unable to move for a moment.

"In this life, I..." Rage appeared in Mu Yun Hai's eyes:

"Hate sycophants the most!"

With a *slap*.

A hand, white as jade, grabbed onto Mu Yun Hai's shoulder.

A cold sneer appeared on Mo's lips, and the power of karma erupted from his hand, intending to alter the karma within Mu Yun Hai's body.

"Roar!"

Mu Yun Hai suddenly roared and bit down with a snap.

Mo's pupils constricted and he hurriedly retracted his hand, but a piece of flesh from his arm had been bitten off by Mu Yun Hai.

"If you're going to fight, then fight! Why are you being so gentle?"

Mu Yun Hai grinned hideously, chewing the flesh in his mouth before swallowing it.

The next moment.

Mu Yun Hai looked at the Sin-Shattering Law Lord, reached out with one hand, and the power of rules transformed into a giant hand that seized the Sin-Shattering Law Lord's neck.

"Taking your being a sycophant as the cause, I shall kill you hundreds of millions of times as the effect!"

*Crack, crack, crack! *

The karmic giant hand gripped the Sin-Shattering Law Lord, squeezing countless cracks into his physical body.

"Oh no!"

Ruan Qingwu screamed, flying toward the Sin-Shattering Law Lord, and reached out with one hand, countless red flowers shredding the karmic giant hand.

"Mu Yun Hai!!!" the Sin-Shattering Law Lord roared, a violent light erupting from his entire body, followed by an earth-shattering explosion.

The Sin-Shattering Law Lord's physical body left a trail of blue smoke in the void as it was caught by Mo, already covered in wounds.

Meanwhile, Ruan Qingwu pressed her palms together, and thousands of crimson petals emerged from her skirt, pouncing toward Mu Yun Hai.

*Boom, boom, boom! *

The karmic rules and the petals collided continuously, exploding with countless roars.

The Sin-Shattering Law Lord gasped violently, blood flowing from beneath his mask.

Mo stood beside the Sin-Shattering Law Lord, ice-cold intent appearing in his eyes.

"Attack together!" Sin-Shattering growled.

"Mm." Mo nodded solemnly, and a dagger condensed from the rules of karma suddenly appeared in his sleeve.

As he raised his hand, silver light flickered.

*Puchi! *

It pierced into the Sin-Shattering Law Lord's forehead.

*Crack, crack! *

The white jade mask shattered, revealing the face of an ordinary man.

With his forehead pierced by the dagger, the Sin-Shattering Law Lord's eyes widened, filled with disbelief.

"Sin-Shattering!" Ruan Qingwu screamed:

"Mo, what are you doing!"

Mo withdrew the dagger, and the corpse of the Sin-Shattering Law Lord fell into the Sea of Malice.

"We are all supreme beings; I'll kill one first." A cold sneer hung on Mo's lips.

"Hahaha!!!" Mu Yun Hai laughed out loud:

"I really didn't misjudge you, Mo; you are truly my best friend!"

Mo sneered and, in an instant, turned into a streak of light to kill Mu Yun Hai.

Clearly, even though Mo chose to briefly backstab Ruan Qingwu.

In the general direction, he was still attacking Mu Yun Hai first.

And even though Ruan Qingwu was furious in her heart, she had to continue attacking Mu Yun Hai.

Among the three, she was the weakest.

In a battle of three, she only had the greatest chance of survival if a balanced mutual-killing relationship was established.

Mu Yun Hai wielded the rules of karma with one hand, while his other hand struck at Mo instantly.

*Boom, boom, boom! *

The karmic rules collided in the void, constantly killing each other.

With Mo's obstruction, the crimson petals unleashed by Ruan Qingwu slammed into Mu Yun Hai.

*Sss, sss, sss! *

Mu Yun Hai's silver battle armor was instantly corroded, leaving countless scars.

"Poisonous woman, poisonous woman, poisonous woman!" Mu Yun Hai roared and bellowed, but the next moment he pounced on Mo like a madman, opening his mouth to bite down directly.

Roar!

Mu Yun Hai's fighting style had no structure at all; he just kept biting.

Half of Mo's face was bitten off by him.

Seeing this, Ruan Qingwu furrowed her brows and instantly turned into a red light, wanting to flee.

Boom!

Two strands of causal laws suddenly struck, twisting toward Ruan Qingwu like chains.

"You!" Ruan Qingwu cried out in shock.

She had not expected that once she fled, Mo and Mu Yun Hai would stop fighting each other and instead turn directly against her.

Beneath the mask, a cold light appeared in Ruan Qingwu's eyes.

The causal laws arrived, shattering her mask and revealing that stunningly beautiful face.

At the same time.

Within the endless Sea of Malice, gazes struck out one after another.

At the same time.

Above the Sea of Malice, a single leaf-shaped boat drifted.

Ji Chen, dressed in white, stood calmly, a smile appearing at the corners of his mouth.

In his hand, several causal threads intertwined and collided above the Retrograde Mirror.

Beside Ji Chen.

A woman wore black tactical gear, outlining her tall figure.

Following this, the woman suddenly retreated a step, her posture sinking like a lone leopard coiled and ready to strike.

Her right hand pressed against the hilt at her waist, her knuckles slightly curled, her sleeves catching the wind from the movement.

"Silent Night—Dust Severing!"

Swish!

A white light instantly pierced upward from beneath the Sea of Malice, blinding to the extreme.

Almost in an instant.

A bloodstain appeared on Mo's face.

Immediately after, his entire head was split in two, falling into the Sea of Malice.

The fourth Child Mo, dead!

The woman in tactical gear appeared suddenly, killing the fourth Child Mo with a single strike.

Ruan Qingwu still had a trace of lingering fear in her eyes as she stood in the high heavens.

Mu Yun Hai frowned, then a smile erupted in his eyes:

"So it's Ying, come, let brother have a look!"

Mu Yun Hai beckoned to Ying, though his peripheral vision caught sight of Ji Chen on the leaf-boat below.

Ji Chen's expression was serene, carrying a smile.

The woman in tactical gear stood in the firmament; she was none other than the seventh Child who had never appeared before, Ying.

Ying's expression was icy as she looked at Ruan Qingwu, the long blade in her hand flickering with flowing light.

It was clear she wanted to strike at Ruan Qingwu.

"Ying."

Ji Chen spoke in a low voice.

Ying frowned slightly, then vanished above the horizon.

Mu Yun Hai frowned and looked at Ruan Qingwu:

"Why didn't she kill you?"

Ruan Qingwu's expression was cold to the extreme.

Mu Yun Hai, however, reached out and grabbed Mo's corpse, storing it within his own universe.

"Hahahaha!" Mu Yun Hai laughed loudly:

"I, Mu Yun Hai, am Chen Yan's dog?"

He stared at the heavens and earth, twisting his head:

"Woof!

Woof, woof, woof!"

"If I didn't act like a dog, could I have made such a huge profit today?

Woof!"

Dog barks rang out in succession.

He did not continue to attack Ruan Qingwu.

Because Ying's reaction was too abnormal.

The fact that the other party did not kill Ruan Qingwu must mean Ruan Qingwu possessed some even more terrifying means.

Ying's arrival had triggered a change in causality, and Mu Yun Hai was most skilled in the laws of causality.

In the dark, he also sensed the extreme danger on Ruan Qingwu.

The leaf-boat slowly sailed toward the other side of the Sea of Malice.

Ying spoke calmly:

"Just now, I could have killed Ruan Qingwu, and you could have helped me kill Mu Yun Hai."

Ji Chen shook his head and looked at the Retrograde Mirror in his hand:

"Even if you don't believe me, you must believe the Retrograde Mirror; if we had acted just now, both you and I would have died."

Ying furrowed her brows:

"What exactly is your goal, and why cooperate with the Primordial Chaos?"

Ji Chen's gaze was calm:

"Who I cooperate with is not important; what is important is that I need every person to precisely complete the karmic node that belongs to them."

Ying pursed their lips:

"Then what is the final karmic node?"

Ji Chen lowered their eyes:

"It is merely a momentary change in karma; either the human race perishes, or the human race endures."

Ji Chen looked at Ying:

"But you will certainly die."

Ying was stunned for a moment, then lowered their eyes and said:

"Death is inevitable for everyone; if it can be weightier than Mount Tai, then dying is just dying."

Ji Chen laughed out loud:

"This is the reason I sought you out; you are the weakest Dao Child, yet you are also the most important one."
