Chapter 261: Refusing Sea City

The surging Heaven and Earth Qi gathered, and the Karma Fire Compass, like a dragon drawing in water, swallowed all this Heaven and Earth Qi into its body.

As the surging Qi entered, the power of this supreme treasure was also gradually reviving.

Its previously blurry form was now becoming increasingly clear.

The Dao Pattern imprints left behind by the person who refined it were now also appearing more clearly, with rays of precious light and divine brilliance blooming.

This supreme treasure was gradually recovering its profound abilities; Chen Mo channeled a wisp of Blood Qi to refine this treasure, and was thus able to learn of its origin and grade.

The Blood Qi circulated and refined it in an instant; Chen Mo now knew the supreme treasure was named the Red Lotus Karma Compass.

It is one of the top-tier wondrous treasures between Heaven and Earth, originally refined by multiple Great Abilities working together.

It could even be said that the law of Red Lotus Karmic Fire was born because of it.

This compass is likewise a wondrous treasure of Heaven and Earth, beyond the ranks of ordinary grades.

There were six such wondrous treasures born at the same time as this compass: a saber, a sword, a brush, a book, a chain, and this compass.

Chen Mo wields the power of Yin and Yang, enabling him to condense Yin-Yang True Gang, and the evolution of Yin and Yang can produce profound transformative spirit fire.

Only under these circumstances will she further revive her own power.

The reason she is restricted now is that she is restricting herself.

Of course, for a Martial Artist at his realm, ordinary flames are almost incapable of causing any harm; they must be wondrous or strange fires.

Such a method, he could use even without the help of this compass.

Not only that, this compass also has three parts of spatial utility, enabling it to tear open space, lock onto enemies, and burn them with boundless karmic fire.

Although the power of this compass is far from what it once was, it still has many wondrous uses.

The reason is simple: if she did not impose restrictions, Fengdu Niangniang would inevitably encounter a catastrophe from the Mirage Sea, and this is a calamity she cannot escape.

Each of these six wondrous treasures can wield Red Lotus Karmic Fire, and each has its own unique profundities.

"My elder sister has something to discuss with you, and has asked me to invite you to the Netherworld," the Master of the Blood Sea said with a smile, cupping his hands in return.

"Very well, then I shall set off now." Chen Mo was not surprised by this situation; within this world, no one yet knew that his cultivation had broken through.

To truly unleash its maximum value, one must still find a top-quality fire seed to store within it.

Relying on her strength, this world could not possibly restrict her.

As long as she is willing, she can break the restrictions at any time; even though a long time has passed and her strength is low, recovering to seventy or eighty percent in a short time is definitely not a problem.

Other wondrous treasures will also have a mutual resonance, all of them triggering their own profundities to ignite the karma on this person.

Each of these six wondrous treasures has a profound use, and the utility of this compass is to lock onto the location of those who possess karma.

Once a wondrous treasure with spirit is born, it requires no one to control it; it will itself pursue those with dense karma to burn them.

But this matter cannot be rushed; it must be done slowly.

But Fengdu Niangniang would certainly be able to sense this; his own cultivation breakthrough has brought about an increase in the upper limit of the Youming Jie.

As his strength increased, Chen Mo could actually guess the situation of Fengdu Niangniang.

It is just that with this compass, he has gained an extra move to injure enemies at critical moments.

What these few Supremes refined was not a weapon or a wondrous treasure, but a law.

And wanting to collect this fire seed is undoubtedly a difficult task.

No matter how far away the target is, as long as the concentration of karma on their body reaches a certain threshold, the compass can perceive it instantly and lock onto them.

Therefore, this wondrous treasure was born carrying a portion of the Heavenly Law, symbolizing the most primordial source within this world.

Thus, she used the method of restricting herself to choose to avoid this calamity.

Even if the opponent flees, if he wishes to continue the pursuit, he can lock onto them using the mark left by the compass.

After collecting the Karma Fire Compass, Chen Mo turned his gaze toward the distant horizon, where a beautiful red figure was standing in the void.

Chen Mo can use this compass to contain all the fires of Heaven and Earth, and then use them as a means to face enemies.

But the efficacy of this compass goes far beyond this; although its power has been eroded, it has also been granted a new possibility.

The reason these six wondrous treasures were born was to burn away all the karma in the world.

It is precisely because of this that Chen Mo was able to master it; otherwise, given the characteristics of this treasure, the moment it appeared in the world, it would have merged with this world and once again become a tool of Heaven and Earth.

The Space Gate opened, and Chen Mo followed closely behind the Master of the Blood Sea.

If the opponent has no karma, the efficacy of the karmic fire will be greatly diminished.

Coupled with the spirit within, it is impossible for anyone other than a few Heavenly Supremes to refine and master it.

"Fellow Daoist of the Blood Sea." Chen Mo walked up with a smile and cupped his hands in greeting.

When fighting an enemy, one can lock onto them and continuously burn them with karmic fire.

It is impossible for these six wondrous treasures to be controlled by anyone; although they were born post-creation, they were refined by several Ancient Heaven Supremes with all their might.

But to drive this fire, Chen Mo must expend his own Yin-Yang True Gang.

But there are exceptions to everything; this treasure was continuously suppressed in the Return Ruins, its spirit long since eroded, and its power is far from what it once was.

The world has changed, and the Netherworld is also somewhat different from the past.

The Master of the Blood Sea merged another part of the Netherworld here, connecting it with the New World to maintain the order of the other world.

The two Netherworlds joined forces, causing the Netherworld to be elevated in its essence.

The territory is vast, and the laws are more stable.

Consequently, the situation of the world has also changed; the operation within the Netherworld is more orderly, and it is finally no longer the desolate scene of the past.

The Netherworld is a place of rebirth, located between the boundary line of life and death; plants should naturally grow here.

These plants are all of Yin attribute, and a portion of them are used for refining tools, making them quite excellent materials.

Chen Mo followed Fengdu Niangniang into a palace, where Fengdu Niangniang was standing.

"Niangniang." He wore a smile and bowed in salute.

"Your cultivation has broken through to the True One Realm." Fengdu Niangniang looked at Chen Mo, her tone very certain.

"That is correct. This junior previously harvested many Wanfa Spirit Fruit in the Return Ruins, and by refining them for cultivation, I gained insight into the meaning of the Yin and Yang Dao, thus entering the True One Realm." Chen Mo did not conceal his own cultivation level and spoke quite calmly.

Fengdu Niangniang's expression was knowing and unsurprised, while the Master of the Blood Sea turned to look at Chen Mo, her eyes full of confusion and bewilderment.

She knew that Chen Mo's talent and comprehension were very strong; let alone looking at this era, according to what her sister said, he was a top-tier genius even in the Ancient Heaven and Earth.

Yet, she still found it somewhat hard to accept that Chen Mo's cultivation had progressed so rapidly.

How much time had passed since his last breakthrough? Even with opportunities and favorable conditions, it should logically be impossible to improve this quickly.

The Master of the Blood Sea was filled with confusion, not only keeping her gaze on Chen Mo with curiosity.

Previously, when Chen Mo broke through to the Myriad Phenomena Realm, it had already shocked her once.

But that time was still fine, because she had also had a great encounter at that realm, and her cultivation had climbed all the way up.

However, the difficulty of breaking through to the Myriad Phenomena Realm and breaking through to the True One Realm could not be mentioned in the same breath.

When breaking through to the Myriad Phenomena Realm, a Martial Artist with good fortune and opportunities could proceed smoothly and steadily.

But the True One Realm is different; a Martial Artist breaking through this realm truly needs to have insights into the Dao of Heaven and Earth and their own Dao.

Furthermore, one must perceive different phenomena and participate in the changes of Heaven and Earth; only then can one break through.

Even if Chen Mo had a large amount of Wanfa Spirit Fruit to assist him, it could at most only accelerate this process, not help him directly complete the breakthrough.

If it were said that Chen Mo relied on himself to break through, even if he borrowed the profoundness of the Hengyu Asking Dao Hall, it would be enough to prove his terrifying comprehension.

"I have some matters to discuss with Chen Mo; you should go out first." Fengdu Niangniang looked at the Master of the Blood Sea; the things she was about to discuss with Chen Mo were quite important.

Moreover, simply knowing about this matter carried a certain level of risk.

Chen Mo's cultivation was sufficient, so it would not matter if he knew, but the Master of the Blood Sea was different; not letting her know was a form of protection for her.

"Very well." The Master of the Blood Sea smiled, nodded, and left. She also understood that when one's strength is insufficient, knowing too much is not a good thing.

After the Master of the Blood Sea left, Fengdu Niangniang waved her hand gently, and endless power of laws intertwined.

A phantom of the Six Paths Reincarnation Dharma Wheel appeared, and the rules unique to the Netherworld firmly wrapped around the entire palace.

"You have broken through to the True One Realm; such a realm is not considered weak even in the Ancient Heaven and Earth." Fengdu Niangniang's tone was calm.

This realm requires not only diligent cultivation but also sufficient insight into the natural Dao.

Those who can reach this realm are divided into strong and weak, but no one is too weak.

Even if placed in the Ancient Heaven and Earth period, a Martial Artist of this realm was a backbone force, and if placed in certain remote regions, such an expert would be enough to dominate.

And in today's Heaven and Earth, experts of the True One Realm are even harder to find.

That Chen Mo could break through so quickly, even including him, was actually somewhat unexpected.

The strength of Chen Mo's talent, let alone in this era, is unique even if placed in the Ancient Heaven and Earth.

Even as Heaven and Earth are gradually eroded by Chen Mo, Heaven and Earth will instinctively find ways to save themselves.

Many who possess great Heavenly Luck, great comprehension, and great opportunities will leap out like fish, constantly appearing in Heaven and Earth.

Yet even so, Chen Mo's talent and comprehension are a bit too excessive!

However, this is a good thing; today's Heaven and Earth are in need of experts to appear.

"You previously asked me why the countless Mirage Beasts in the Mirage Sea that surpassed the True One Realm disappeared, and I did not give you an answer.

It is not that I did not know, but that telling you that matter would be of no benefit to you." Fengdu Niangniang sighed softly and spoke in a deep voice.

Hearing this, Chen Mo could not help but perk up his spirits and listen carefully.

"At that time, the Mirage Sea invaded, and the many experts in Heaven and Earth could not resist.

Therefore, they had to settle in a corner, seeking a chance for survival in the future.

At that time, not only I, but many Great Abilities in Heaven and Earth, and even the Ancient Heaven Supreme, all sought their own ways to avoid the disaster.

But while many experts tried to find ways to go to various Small Worlds to take refuge, there were still countless Mirage Beasts active within the Mirage Sea.

Some of these Mirage Beasts were extremely powerful; even though they were creatures evolved from the Sea of Beasts, they already possessed intelligence.

With goals and plans, they gradually devoured the remaining power of the Ancient Heaven and Earth.

If the situation continued to develop like this, then before long, the Da Tiandi used by the Human Race to temporarily avoid disaster would be completely eroded.

To resolve this matter, three Ancient Heaven Supreme and a hundred surviving Great Abilities of Heaven and Earth joined forces to set up a Peerless Killing Array at the core of the Mirage Sea."

When Fengdu Niangniang mentioned this, her tone suddenly turned cold, and even her expression became solemn.

"You do not need to know the name of this Peerless Killing Array for now; you only need to know that it was precisely this great array that firmly trapped all Mirage Sea creatures exceeding the True One Realm.

Because of this, these Mirage Sea creatures have been unable to stir up trouble in this era."

Fengdu Niangniang sighed leisurely, while Chen Mo fell into thought.

He was very curious about this Peerless Killing Array and what means it used to trap all the Mirage Sea creatures.

And the time they were trapped was not short; looking at the situation, Mirage Sea creatures that broke through to the True One Realm might also be trapped by it.

Such means can be called profound and amazing; one can only say that the Ancient Heaven Supreme were indeed Supreme.

The means and Dao techniques used by such figures were far beyond his own imagination.

From this, it is also enough to see that when facing the Mirage Sea, the experts of the Ancient Heaven and Earth were not without means of resistance.

Even if they were only facing the Mirage Sea creatures, they were very likely to have the upper hand.

But the problem is that what they had to face was not just the Mirage Sea creatures, or rather, these creatures were only a minor irritation.

The real problem lies in the Mirage Sea; it cannot be resisted, cannot be solved, and is constantly eroding all things at every moment. Even Great Abilities and Supreme would be accidentally eroded and transformed by it.

This is its truly terrifying aspect; the Mirage Sea, to a certain extent, is like the Return Ruins that arrived early in this era.

It is just that this disaster still gave the many creatures of Heaven and Earth a chance to catch their breath, allowing them to survive and find an opportunity to solve it.

"But although the killing array was set up, for it to remain for a long time, this array requires people to maintain it with mental effort.

Even to set up this array, we sacrificed one Supreme and more than thirty Great Abilities."

Fengdu Niangniang sighed deeply, and a few traces of memory flashed in her eyes.

"You are now in the True One Realm; although your cultivation is still somewhat lacking, it is enough to go to that Peerless Killing Array. There are more experts there, and that killing array itself also supports a piece of Da Tiandi."

There, the Heavenly Law is more stable and complete, and there are both cultivation resources and opportunities.

There are even Supreme Laws passed down from the Ancient Heaven Supreme; such methods can only be preserved within that kind of Da Tiandi.

With your aptitude, if you do not go there to cultivate, it would truly be a waste."

Fengdu Niangniang said in a deep voice.

Chen Mo's aptitude is too good; continuing to restrict him to a small world is not a good thing.

Only by heading to the Da Tiandi can he see and gain more, and the speed of his cultivation improvement will also reach a higher level.

Not to mention those rare Secret Techniques, which can only be preserved within the Da Tiandi.

"This is my Token. Take this Token to enter the Return Ruins, go straight to the fifth level of the Return Ruins and activate the power of the Token, and you will be able to open a passage to that Peerless Killing Array."

Fengdu Niangniang flipped her fair hand, and a palm-sized, crimson Token appeared.

The Token was carved with countless patterns; at a glance, it felt incomparably exquisite, but looking closer, every one of these patterns was related to the Dao of the Netherworld and reincarnation.

"When you arrive beside that Peerless Killing Array, there should be a city named Ju Hai City.

After you enter the city, through this Token, you should be able to find my other avatar.

You will hand the Token to her, and she will naturally understand everything and arrange the subsequent matters for you."

Back when this Peerless Killing Array was being set up, the many powerhouses still remaining in the world were naturally duty-bound.

Although Fengdu Niangniang had bound herself to this world and could not easily extricate herself, she could not remain indifferent when faced with this situation.

Therefore, she directly split off an avatar and placed most of her power into it, replacing herself to go and help set up the array.

As for her true body, it remained here for a long time.

Across the endless Mirage Sea, he could not easily communicate with that avatar of hers; currently, he could only confirm that the avatar still existed, but he did not know the specific situation.

"This junior understands." Chen Mo bowed in thanks and accepted the Token.

He understood the value of this Token; it was equivalent to opening up another broad Great Dao for himself.

Of course, this was not without a price; the reason Fengdu Niangniang treated him this way was also because she hoped that after his strength improved quickly, he would be able to resist the Mirage Sea.

Facing this point, Chen Mo naturally had no objections; this was something he was duty-bound to do anyway.

After all, he also resided within this world; if the Mirage Sea Catastrophe were to intensify, then even he would not be able to escape it.

"The Token has been given to you; whether you go or not, and when you set off, is your own business."

Fengdu Niangniang smiled freely, and after handing the Token to Chen Mo, she turned and left.

Chen Mo, having accepted the Token, saw this and did not stay here any longer.

He would definitely go to Ju Hai City, but there were many things to do before going, and he had to arrange everything in advance before he could set off.
