Almost as Lan Xiaobu tore apart Qianhe’s world, another half-body rushed towards him. Before the undercurrents of the Chaos River could sweep this half-body into the river, Lan Xiaobu had already scooped it up, tossing out Tai Chuan at the same time, while he himself lunged towards the other Green-Robed Enforcer.
That half-body belonged to Thunder Sage, showing that without the timely support of Thunder Sage, Qi Muwei, and Mo Wuji, Yi Qingshan and the others would already be dead. Now, even Thunder Sage’s physical body had been severed, revealing just how powerful Green-Robed Enforcer A was.
While instructing Tai Chuan to collect items from Qianhe’s world, Lan Xiaobu had already summoned the Cosmic Mill. Time was too pressing, he had no chance to deal with the contents of Green-Robed Enforcer B’s world.
Once the vast Cosmic Mill was unleashed, it immediately locked down this region beneath the Chaos River. Mo Wuji, who was blocking Green-Robed Enforcer A from killing Thunder Sage, felt the pressure on him ease the moment Lan Xiaobu activated the Cosmic Mill. Without hesitation, he summoned the Wheel of Time, blasting out the Life-and-Death Wheel divine ability simultaneously.
In that moment, Mo Wuji truly felt the ease of working with Lan Xiaobu. Though Thunder Sage and Qi Muwei were Creation Sages, they could only help alleviate some pressure, unable to let Mo Wuji unleash his full strength.
Now, with Lan Xiaobu’s Cosmic Mill in play, Mo Wuji could confidently deploy the Wheel of Time.
“Cosmic Mill?” Green-Robed Enforcer A’s eyes narrowed upon seeing it, momentarily setting aside the shock of his companion’s death, roaring inwardly, Where did these ants come from? Not only do they have the Seven Realms Stone, but also the Cosmic Mill.
But the next moment, as the terrifying grinding rules of the mill bore down, his sage domain shattered inch by inch, and his divine ability rules began to be ground away, his expression changed.
The Cosmic Mill was formidable, but now he was trapped within it. Whether he coveted the mill or not, his first priority was to escape it.
The grinding rules of the Cosmic Mill grew increasingly terrifying, even causing Green-Robed Enforcer A’s mind to tremble. He knew he had to leave first. As his essence blood burned, his escape speed surged tenfold, breaking through before the mill’s grinding rules could fully form.
If Lan Xiaobu were alone, he would have frantically blocked the Green-Robed Enforcer from escaping the Cosmic Mill, even striking with the Longevity Halberd.
But now, Lan Xiaobu made no such move, only driving the Cosmic Mill’s grinding rules with full force, trusting Mo Wuji.
Having worked with Mo Wuji multiple times, if Mo Wuji couldn’t seize this opportunity, he wouldn’t have survived this long.
Mo Wuji, of course, seized the chance. In fact, the moment Lan Xiaobu joined the fray, he had summoned the Wheel of Time, merging the Life-and-Death Wheel divine ability with it, its power increasing tenfold.
Just as he was about to break free from the Cosmic Mill’s suppression, Green-Robed Enforcer A was elated, already planning to subdue Lan Xiaobu the moment he escaped, seizing the Cosmic Mill first.
Once he had the Cosmic Mill and the Seven Realms Stone, where in the vast cosmos couldn’t he go? Why stay in the tiny Hao Abyss Universe?
But at that moment, two beams, one grey, one white, blasted towards him, an ancient rule of time crushing down.
Under this rule of time, life and death were starkly divided.
Green-Robed Enforcer A knew his lifeline lay in the white beam. He frantically rushed towards it, but the grey beam had already locked onto him, crushing down recklessly.
In an instant, the deathly rule began devouring his Dao.
Green-Robed Enforcer A faltered, a strange realisation welling up, as if he were only a hair’s breadth from life.
“No!” Green-Robed Enforcer A roared, his painted halberd unleashing billions of slaughtering rules.
Since his debut, when had Fang Yu ever been so humiliated? Let alone two mere Genesis Realm cultivators, he had slain more than one half-step Fourth Step expert. How many Creation Sages had died by his hand? He couldn’t even recall.
He was a Green-Robed Enforcer, yes, but he was on the verge of becoming the fourth Blue-Robed Enforcer of Mengmu Dayan, how could he die here?
Under the burning of his essence blood and rules, the slaughtering rules from his halberd grew fiercer.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Crack!
The sound of shattering rules exploded beneath the Chaos River. The Cosmic Mill, previously surging, not only halted under these slaughtering rules but grew weaker. Not just Lan Xiaobu, even those outside could see the mill’s coverage shrinking.
Blood trickled from Lan Xiaobu’s mouth as he began burning his Longevity Dao rules.
Burning rules? You’re not the only one who can do that, Green-Robe.
Mo Wuji let out a long howl, the Life-and-Death rules of the Wheel of Time intensifying, the rolling deathly aura almost tangible. Yi Qingshan, who had escaped the battlefield, paled, feeling that merely approaching this deathly rule would mean her demise, no attack needed.
The Life-and-Death rules under the Wheel of Time grew clearer, with rule sounds blasting one after another.
Affected by the Wheel’s Life-and-Death rules, Green-Robed Enforcer A’s slaughtering aura faltered, the waves of slaughter from his halberd dimming.
As the Life-and-Death rules swept over again, Green-Robed Enforcer A, drawn into the rule’s rhythm, seemed to return to his most glorious moment.
Time flies, years pass like a shuttle. Green-Robed Enforcer A sighed, the good times always pass so quickly, death inescapable for all, himself included.
The sun sets beautifully, but dusk is near! The grey deathly rule grew thicker, his eyes gradually clouding, he really didn’t want to die.
A faint wheel shadow abruptly entered his vision, this.
No, that’s the primal treasure, the Wheel of Time! Green-Robed Enforcer A snapped awake, burning his essence blood and lifespan frantically to break free from the Life-and-Death rules. He realised he’d been drawn into the rules because of the Wheel of Time, but it also gave the divine ability a flaw, letting him wake in time.
More terrifyingly, this was the third primal treasure he’d seen, how many did these ants have? But now wasn’t the time to think, he had to escape.
His halberd nearly tore apart the Cosmic Mill’s rules, the mill creaking. Lan Xiaobu spat a mouthful of blood, his rule rhythm surging wildly, refusing to believe he’d let this Green-Robe escape after trapping him.
Mo Wuji felt immense pressure too. Without their primal treasures, he and Lan Xiaobu would have been doomed.
Letting the enemy escape now would be utterly incompetent.
The Wheel of Time’s rules stacked again, the Life-and-Death Wheel Seal’s rules growing clearer, as Mo Wuji pointed a finger at the Green-Robed Enforcer struggling to break free.
The Sixth Finger of the Seven Realms Finger, Delusion, no matter how you struggle, under my Life-and-Death Wheel Seal, it’s all delusion, your slaughtering rules, under this finger, are delusion.
With Delusion unleashed, the halberd’s glow shattered, crushed again by the Cosmic Mill.
Green-Robed Enforcer A sprayed a blood arrow, letting out a long wail, his body’s rules roiling even more wildly. But Mo Wuji’s Life-and-Death Wheel divine ability’s deathly aura fully enveloped him.
The halberd’s slaughtering rules were gradually ground away by the Cosmic Mill, and Green-Robed Enforcer A calmed from his rage.
No matter how strong, he couldn’t escape three primal treasures. It wasn’t carelessness, no one could have imagined these ants had three primal treasures.
As his slaughtering rules were devoured, the deathly intent locked onto him again.
This time, Green-Robed Enforcer A didn’t struggle, perhaps knowing it was futile. He didn’t beg either, knowing better than anyone that against Lan Xiaobu and Mo Wuji, begging wouldn’t save him. Feeling the deathly aura envelop his body, he gazed at the blurry, roiling Chaos River beyond the Cosmic Mill, a sigh in his eyes.
He knew, after this, he’d have no chance to live. Two Genesis Realm cultivators with three primal treasures, perhaps even the Reincarnation Bridge, enough to annihilate his soul.
Regret? If given another chance, he’d still be unable to resist the Seven Realms Stone’s allure. No regrets, only the pity of no reincarnation.
When flowers bloom again, youth never returns, life’s greatest regret.
As the deathly rule fully enveloped him, Green-Robed Enforcer A didn’t care how long he had left. Looking at the Chaos River, he wondered, if he could live again, would he, like in past reincarnations, frantically cultivate and obsess over strength?
A sharp pain struck his brow, his primordial spirit torn by the Life-and-Death Wheel’s deathly aura, yet he still found no answer.
