"Get back here, now!" Chu Mo bellowed icily.

In the void, the long blade let out an unwilling cry. Chu Mo raised his hand and delivered another strike.

A cleaving blow!

This strike, before Chu Mo could push its momentum to the limit, the long blade transformed instantly into a transparent blade body, dissipating all killing intent.

If Wang Quan saw this scene, he would probably be so shocked that his jaw would drop to the ground. He wouldn't believe it was real.

That segment of the murderous blade, just compromised so easily?

The reason was simple, it was a part of Heaven Slaying, it was the existence that knew Heaven Slaying the best in this world. The strike Chu Mo just launched, if it didn't concede, would undoubtedly shatter it!

In this world, apart from itself, there were almost no dharma instruments that could harm it.

Yet, what was in Chu Mo's hand was none other than itself, and it wasn't even helping it!

In such a situation, conceding, and re-merging into one was the correct choice.

That segment of the blade merged into Heaven Slaying, and Heaven Slaying underwent a tremendous transformation instantly. Its originally restrained bloody hue finally burst forth uncontrollably. Such murderous intent was astonishing; even with Chu Mo's current realm, he felt like he couldn't suppress it.

Chu Mo's avatar appeared directly, sealing the entire void with the path of the top supreme, preventing the aura from spreading out. Otherwise, just this aura alone would have likely slaughtered all beings in this outer realm world to extinction!

An exceptional murderous blade!

Chu Mo found it hard to imagine how this blade was originally disintegrated. How did his grandfathers' group manage to do it? Feeling the violent murderous intent from Heaven Slaying, Chu Mo was more inclined to believe the blade disintegrated on its own!

Perhaps some unspeakable opportunity, or it sensed some supreme dao, just like the piece of Sky-Piercing Godly Mirror. In the hands of those top supremes of the Luotian Immortal Domain, they did not unleash their true power. Otherwise, his grandfather's group… would likely have had a tough time resisting.

Could it be… because of me? Or is it because of the prophecy that is destined to stir up the Luotian Immortal Domain and disrupt the path of the supreme beings?

It turned out that everything in the obscurity was indeed predestined. Even those supreme beings are powerless to stop it?

Chu Mo even felt a chill in his body.

At this moment, the Chaos Furnace on his body let out a hum. A warm aura enveloped Chu Mo.

Only then did Chu Mo come back to his senses, looking at Heaven Slaying, which had re-integrated into one whole piece, with some shock.

He understood something. This blade... was not something that just anyone could master!

Anyone wielding it would probably be greatly affected, even affecting their own dao. Just now, for a moment, he felt as if his soul was nearly dislodged.

"Is this still my blade?" Chu Mo murmured to himself.

Just then, a long-absent voice, filled with exhaustion, rang out: "Kid, if you don't come, I'm really going to end up stewed!"

The big rooster!

Chu Mo's eyes lit up, following the sound. From the depths of the broken mountain, the big rooster crawled out, dusty and disheveled.

Seeing the big rooster, Chu Mo instantly forgot all his worries, grinning with a smirk: "Every time I see you, why are you always so unlucky?"

"Ptui!" The big rooster shook off the dust on its body with force, dust flying everywhere, and then, the vibrant-feathered rooster reappeared before Chu Mo: "It's unlucky only after running into you!"

"Nonsense, I never asked you to come here," said Chu Mo.

"I'm here looking for treasures for you, aren't I?" The big rooster rolled its eyes, then stepped forward, cautiously looking at the bloody blade in the void, and seriously said, "A blade is a weapon of violence, but it depends on whose hand it is held in. When there is no righteousness in the world of martial arts, draw the blade, let it sweep across the sky, simply seek a clear conscience; when all beings forsake the path, let the blade smite them. Indifferent under the starry sky, wield the blade with a lofty gaze. Facing the thorny Great Dao, carve a path with a single slice, to be unrivaled by anyone! The blade in your hand makes you the master of the blade. Even if it's the one that split Heaven and Earth, what of it? It has always been men who control blades, never blades controlling men."

Chu Mo looked at the big rooster with some surprise: "Hey, after all these years, you've become more knowledgeable!"

"Nonsense, I have always been erudite and knowledgeable!" The big rooster scoffed, and then looked at Chu Mo: "Kid, are you close to attaining the dao? Eh? No, that's not right... You should have already attained it! This heaven… Yes, if not for the suppression of this heaven, you would have already attained it."

"You're sounding more and more like a charlatan," Chu Mo chuckled.

"Stop babbling, got any good food? Like Sacred Medicine or something, hand it over quickly, let the rooster have a grand feast!" The big rooster said without any politeness.

"Why would you need Sacred Medicine? To stew chicken?" Chu Mo said with his mouth, but his hands took out a small jade bottle and threw it to the big rooster.

The big rooster caught the bottle with its claw, glanced at the seal of the bottle, and was suddenly startled: "Nice, kid, it's Quasi-Saint medicine... You've hit it big?"

Chu Mo subsequently took out the meat from the body of the Demon Sheep warrior and a complete wing of the Demon Shadow Divine Eagle, saying with a smile: "So you want meat? It's my treat!"

The big rooster gaped at the two pieces of meat, his eyes round with surprise: "Is this from the Demon Clan? Oh my god... What on earth has happened over these years?"

Clang!

At that moment, the Heaven Slaying Sword in the void suddenly let out a clear, resonant call, its sound becoming the vast music of the Great Dao, incredibly profound, as if it came from the chanting of some supreme existence.

Chu Mo glanced at the Heaven Slaying Sword and softly said: "You've followed me for many years, and now you've finally reclaimed all your fragments and are completely whole. If you wish to continue following me, then be the good knife in my hands. But if you desire freedom, I grant you freedom!"

While he was speaking, the Heaven Slaying Sword transformed into a beam of light and, with a whoosh, returned to Chu Mo's hand. Amidst the strong sense of closeness, there was also a hint of apology. Chu Mo instantly understood. Heaven Slaying was still the Heaven Slaying Sword, the very same sword that had accompanied him for so many years. And it was still willing to follow him, willing to be the knife in his hands. It was simply that it had uncontrollably released that aura during the integration process. In fact, Heaven Slaying had been desperately trying to control its aura from leaking out.

There's a kind of tacit understanding that doesn't need communication. The moment Chu Mo held the Heaven Slaying Sword, he understood everything.

The Azure Sky Divine Mirror also quietly returned to Chu Mo's body.

Seven Blood Moons!

Before the age of ten thousand ages, there were only six Blood Moons on the Azure Sky Divine Mirror. Even the supreme being of the Luotian Immortal Domain from the past, who had the Azure Sky Divine Mirror, did not find the four Blood Moons afterward—Judgement, Beheading Path, Chaos, and Unity!

This meant that, possibly in an extremely ancient era, the Azure Sky Divine Mirror had already been completely disintegrated. Ten Blood Moons, each gone their separate ways.

When the Realm Spirit told him this story many years ago, Chu Mo was still young, and the Realm Spirit had also spoken vaguely, trying to explain the matter of the Azure Sky Divine Mirror to Chu Mo in a way he could understand.

Now, looking back, the origins of these three dharma instruments were simply too astonishing. Chu Mo didn't understand what the supreme beings were thinking back then, allowing their subordinates to bring two ancestral artifacts and one lesser ancestral artifact, only for all of them to end up lost within the Yanhuang region.

Artifacts of such caliber shouldn't appear in the hands of those people. Even a supreme being would not be able to truly exert the full power of these three dharma instruments.

Chu Mo hid all these doubts deep in his heart. Even if he asked the big rooster, the big rooster wouldn't possibly know so much.

Afterward, Chu Mo and the big rooster sat there, the two of them using the Chaos furnace to cook mutton soup, and then using the Samadhi Real Fire to grill the wing of the Demon Shadow Divine Eagle. Chu Mo also brought out good wines he had collected over the years. Together with the big rooster, they clinked glasses and drank merrily.

It had been many years since Chu Mo had relaxed this much. Only in front of the big rooster could he let down all his defenses and truly relax from the bottom of his heart.

Even Qi Xiaoyu could not compare to this!

Because only the big rooster had truly witnessed his entire growth process since his youth. And like a mentor and good friend, it had been advising him at his side.

On his journey, Chu Mo felt most grateful to three people in his heart. The first was his master, the Demon Lord! If not for the Demon Lord, even with immense qi movement on his side, he might have perished under the peaks of Longevity Heaven.

Perhaps the Azure Sky Divine Mirror would have protected him, but his path would have been countless times harder.

The second person he was grateful for was the big rooster!

Although the big rooster liked to boast about itself, it truly had knowledge and skill. Its wisdom was vast and much greater than that of the Demon Lord. Not only did it rescue Chu Mo numerous times from danger, but it also provided him with countless guidance and enlightenment.

And the third person was the Realm Spirit!

Even though Chu Mo now knew that the Realm Spirit was the guide left for him by his mother, he still held a sense of gratitude towards the Realm Spirit in his heart.

That feeling of having backing in the Illusionary Divine Realm was really comforting.

Chu Mo shared the events that had happened in the Heavenly Realm with the big rooster, who gasped in amazement and then became deeply sentimental.

Though the big rooster seemed unreliable, it had never been ambiguous about major principles. Upon learning that Chu Mo had led countless cultivators to resist the Demon Clan, the big rooster couldn't help but praise loudly. Hearing that many Human Clan cultivators had died in battle, a touch of tears glistened in the rooster's eyes.

In the end, the big rooster looked at Chu Mo and said somewhat emotionally: "Kid, you've finally grown up. That's great!"

"Big rooster, what are your plans now?" Chu Mo looked at the big rooster: "Go to Piaomiao Palace, where the resources, and everything else, are abundant. With Quasi-Saint medicines there, if one day the seal of this sky is broken, they should all be able to grow into Saint medicines."

The big rooster looked at Chu Mo and sighed: "The Trial Field, right? That's very dangerous!"

Chu Mo was completely shocked. He had told the big rooster everything, the only thing he hadn't mentioned was the Trial Field. It wasn't a lack of trust, but rather he didn't want to talk about departing just after reuniting. He stared blankly at the big rooster for a long while before bitterly smiling and saying: "In this world, is there anything you don't know?"

The big rooster suddenly laughed: "Kid, have you ever heard of Wan Shitong?"
