Chapter 614: Comprehensive Awakening, the Betrayal of Samaier
"This sword has followed this old man for many years; now I lend it to you for self-defense," Taixuan Laozu said, "Remember, you must return safely!"
Lin Xuan solemnly took the divine sword.
"I swear, I will definitely return with the spring water of the Jiuyou Han Quan!"
Jianchi Laozu also handed his treasured Space-Breaking Talisman to Zhang Wuji.
"This Talisman can teleport you a thousand miles in an instant; it can save your life at a critical moment!"
Other cultivators also took out their own treasures one after another to prepare for the trio's adventure.
Xiao Yisheng watched the unity of the crowd, a look of gratification appearing in her eyes.
"With such companions to assist, the chances of this mission succeeding are much higher," she said, "Let us go!"
The three bid farewell to the crowd and set off toward the Jiuyou Gu in the depths of the Mo Jie.
Behind them, Xiao Yuan lay quietly in a temporarily erected tent, waiting for her lover's return.
And in a corner of the Mo Jie, a pair of blood-red eyes were secretly observing everything.
"Want the spring water of the Jiuyou Han Quan?" an eerie voice sounded, "Then come, this deity happens to need some interesting toys!"
The power of purification swept through the entire Mo Jie like a tidal wave.
Wherever the silver light passed, it not only purified the evil aura of the Mo Jie but also awakened countless sleeping Taigu memories.
This power was far more formidable than anyone had anticipated; it was not merely a simple purification, but more like a key, unlocking long-sealed Taichu memories.
Bursts of exclamations suddenly erupted in the Coalition Army camp.
"I... I remember!" a common Coalition Army soldier suddenly shouted, "I am the reincarnation of a Tianbing commander from the Taichu period!"
"Impossible! I have also recovered my memories!" another cultivator said excitedly, "I was originally a Holy Knight guarding the Divine Temple!"
Similar voices rose one after another, and the entire Coalition Army camp began to boil.
Under the baptism of the power of purification, countless soldiers recovered their memories of the Taichu period one after another.
Taixuan Laozu felt the surging power within his body, and his eyes suddenly erupted with brilliant golden light.
"Taigu Sword God..." he muttered to himself, "I am actually the reincarnation of the Taigu Sword God!"
Following the awakening of his memories, the Taixuan Divine Sword in Taixuan Laozu's hand instantly erupted with unprecedented radiance.
The ancient Runes on the sword body began to glow, emitting the terrifying pressure of the Taigu period.
"Hahaha! Finally remembered!" Taixuan Laozu roared toward the sky, "Taigu Sword Dao, reappearing in the world!"
He swung his sword casually, the sword Qi spanning ten miles, splitting a distant magic mountain directly in two.
This power had already far exceeded that of an ordinary quasi-Saint, reaching the realm of a Saint.
Jianchi Laozu also underwent an astonishing transformation.
His white hair instantly turned silver, and his eyes flickered with starlike light.
"Sword Immortal Li Bai," Jianchi Laozu said softly, "The Poet Sword Immortal Lord of the Taichu period, it turns out it was me!"
The Long Sword in his hand began to hum, the sword intent like poetry and painting, beautiful enough to intoxicate the soul.
But within this beautiful sword intent, it contained a terrifying killing intent capable of destroying the world.
The Danding Zong Zongzhu likewise awakened his past-life memories.
"Alchemy Immortal Lord," he looked at his own hands, his eyes full of shock, "I am actually the reincarnation of the Alchemy Immortal Lord of the Taichu period!"
With the recovery of his memories, his understanding of the Dao of Pills instantly reached an unprecedented height.
With a casual wave, the Spirit Qi in the air was refined into a Pill emitting colorful light.
Similar awakenings were happening on a large scale within the Coalition Army.
The soldiers who were originally just ordinary cultivators recovered their identities as gods from the Taichu period one after another.
Some were divine generals guarding the Tianmen, some were Immortal officials in charge of wind and rain, and others were Shenshou guarding the four directions.
The strength of the entire Coalition Army increased by more than several times in a short period.
However, it was not only the righteous side that awakened.
Ancient Gumo also began to wake up in various parts of the Mo Jie.
In the distant Blood Prison Legion camp, bursts of demonic roars suddenly erupted.
"Taigu Moshen, returning to the world!"
"Lord of Destruction, descending once again!"
Streaks of terrifying demonic aura shot into the sky, black pillars of light rushing straight into the clouds.
Those who were originally just ordinary demonic soldiers recovered their identities as Gumo from the Taichu period one after another.
The combat effectiveness of the Blood Prison Legion began to rise sharply.
Zhang Wuji felt the earth-shaking changes all around, his expression becoming grave.
"The influence of the Heavenly Tribulation of World Purification is even greater than imagined," he said in a deep voice, "This is simply triggering a comprehensive wave of awakening!"
Just at this moment, a Coalition Army scout ran over in a panic.
"Report to the Alliance Leader! Samaier Wang is gone!" the scout said, gasping for breath.
"What?" Zhang Wuji was stunned, "Where did Samaier Wang go?"
"I don't know! His tent is empty, he only left this!" the scout handed over a blood-red letter.
Zhang Wuji took the letter and found it covered in dense, ancient demonic script.
This type of writing was extremely complex; even Zhang Wuji could only barely recognize it.
He frowned and translated the contents of the letter word by word.
As the translation progressed, Zhang Wuji's expression became increasingly ugly.
"This is impossible!" Zhang Wuji cried out involuntarily.
Seeing this, Taixuan Laozu hurriedly asked: "What is it? What does the letter say?"
Zhang Wuji's voice began to tremble.
"Samaier Wang... he is a pawn planted by Nitian Mozun!"
"What?!" everyone exclaimed in unison.
Zhang Wuji continued to translate the contents of the blood letter, every word making his mood heavier.
"He says in the letter that he is assisting the Coalition Army on the surface, but in reality, it is to lure the elites of the Three Realms deep into the heart of Mo Jie!"
"The entire Mo Jie campaign has been a massive trap from the very beginning!"
This news was like a bolt from the blue, leaving everyone stunned.
Jianchi Laozu said in disbelief: "Samaier Wang has been helping us all along, how could he be a pawn of Mozun?"
"But the facts are right before our eyes," Zhang Wuji said with a bitter smile, "Samaier Wang has participated in all of our operational plans."
"This means that Nitian Mozun has known our every move like the back of his hand!"
Danding Zong Zongzhu's face turned pale.
"Then our current situation..."
"We are surrounded!" Zhang Wuji said in a deep voice, "The elites of the Three Realms are deep in the heart of Mo Jie, with enemies on all sides!"
Just then, the sound of earth-shaking war drums suddenly came from afar.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The drumbeats were dull and powerful, carrying an ominous omen.
As the drumbeats sounded, the figures of demon armies appeared from all directions.
Blood Prison Legion, Shadow Legion, Destruction Legion...
All the elite forces under Nitian Mozun began to close in on the Coalition Army camp.
Even more terrifying was that the strength of these demon armies was several times greater than before.
The Awakening Wave had affected them as well, and many demon soldiers had recovered their identities as Gumo from the Primordial Era.
"We are surrounded!" a scout reported in a panic, "There are massive armies pressing in from the east, south, west, and north!"
