Chapter 1090: Shocking Slaughter

A strange smiling face appeared, hinting at destruction.

A wisp of disintegrating spiritual power, like the source of a fierce and poisonous plague, flowed from the smiling face, seeping into the great array's core. Along the predetermined trajectory, it instantly 'polluted' the entire array core of the blood sacrifice great array.

The intricate array, layer by layer, began to reveal its true form.

One by one, strange array patterns appeared, like peculiar poppy flowers, blooming in succession before utterly disintegrating. First, there was a deep silence.

Spiritual power reversed, producing disintegrating power that decomposed the spiritual power and also swallowed sound. All around was pitch black.

Then, a shocking explosion echoed.

This was the second-grade disintegrating power eroding the third-grade array core structure, causing the third-grade array core structure to become unbalanced and triggering a powerful explosion.

Mr. Tu was at the center of the explosion.

But he was helpless.

He could only watch as the paths of the reverse spiritual array, like blooming flowers, carrying terrifying disintegrating power, thoroughly destroyed everything.

Pitch black disintegrating power and blood-red explosive power intertwined in the depths of the entire blood sacrifice great array, destroying the core array core of the blood sacrifice great array.

Even the remains of the giant beast from the great wilderness, under this destructive power, began to dismember, collapse, and fall into the earth vein blood river.

Mountain rocks shattered, dust and smoke rose everywhere.

Black and red array power intertwined.

The flesh and blood labyrinth began to shake and collapse.

The core of the blood sacrifice great array, under the explosion of this power, completely fell and turned into powder.

The entire barren heaven blood sacrifice great array, without the support of the array eye's evil power, with its supply cut off, came to a complete halt.

The bloody evil light began to dim.

The dense blood sea on the horizon also stopped surging.

On the Sword Viewing Tower.

A crowd of Cave Void old ancestors all changed color.

"The blood sacrifice great array stopped?"

"Why?"

An array law old ancestor frowned and said, "Internal array power is chaotic, there are strong array law fluctuations, it seems the core's operation went wrong, the array core—self-exploded?"

"Is there such a thing?"

"The array core self-destructed, the great array stagnated, without the blood sacrifice great array's blessing, these demonic path cultivators will be without their biggest reliance. Why not just rush in now?"

"Opportunity cannot be lost—"

An aged voice said, "No."

A crowd of Cave Void old ancestors turned their heads to look at Mr. Xun.

Mr. Xun's eyebrows were tightly locked, his voice extremely solemn and filled with deep chill:

"This is only the beginning—"

He was a fifth-grade array master and could see that the current reversal of spiritual power was merely a 'warm-up'. The truly terrifying changes accumulated within the great array, that majestic destructive aura, had not yet been released.

"Just beginning?"

A crowd of Cave Void old ancestors' pupils trembled slightly, and then they held their breath, staring intently at the distance.

Inside the blood sacrifice great array.

Due to the explosion of the array core, the great array collapsed, and power spread outwards, immediately wiping out some demonic cultivators and alarming the majority of the remaining demonic cultivators.

A crowd of demonic heads, all with shocked and angry expressions, didn't know exactly what had happened.

And in the ruins where the array core had collapsed, scattered lay many blood-stained corpses and severed limbs of demonic cultivators.

After a moment, dust flew, and mountain rocks shattered.

Four strong breaths surged out.

Mr. Tu, Shangguan Wang, the Feathered One from Yin Corpse Valley protected by a golden corpse, and the old man from Demonic Sword Sect protected by a demonic sword, all revealed their blood-stained figures.

After successively being gnawed by the myriad demons in Yanluo Mountain abyss, in a short time, they suffered a second setback.

They were affected at close range by the power of the array core self-explosion.

But this self-explosion was only third-grade, and the explosion volume was not too large, nor was the duration long. Therefore, it only injured these four Feathered Ones and fundamentally could not kill them off.

Feathered Ones themselves were not that easy to kill.

And after being schemed against and harmed repeatedly, being reduced to such a wretched state, the eyes of several Feathered Ones were full of killing intent.

Even if they were unclear about the inside story, just from the array law aspect, they could guess that this was all that boy Mo Hua's doing.

"That day if I catch this boy, no matter what his identity is, I will dig out his heart, split his abdomen, cut off his limbs, sever his head, refine him into a corpse slave, and properly torment him."

Several demonic path Feathered Ones all thought hatefully in their hearts.

Especially Mr. Tu, his hatred towards Mo Hua was even more sky-high.

If hatred could kill, Mo Hua would already be dead with not even dregs left.

He had predicted correctly before.

A second-grade reverse spiritual array, disintegrating second-grade array law, produced disintegrating power sufficient to rival third-grade Gold Core power.

Even because it was an absolute array, because it was disintegration, in terms of the power of the law concept, it was even superior rather than inferior.

This meant that although Mo Hua was a Foundation Building cultivator, relying on the reverse spiritual array, he already had the ability to shake the foundation of a quasi-third-grade great array.

And he did indeed use the reverse spiritual array to destroy the central array core of the blood sacrifice great array.

With the array core destroyed, it was equivalent to destroying the great array.

In the current severe situation, wanting to withstand the pressure from the various families and sects of Qian Xue and rebuild the central hub of the blood sacrifice great array was as difficult as ascending to heaven.

Things had come to this point, his lifelong plans, his full heart's blood, had already been thoroughly 'wasted' by Mo Hua.

Thinking of that strange smiling face, carrying an innocent mocking meaning, Mr. Tu felt his blood rush up, his heart bleeding, his eyes full of blood threads.

"Mr. Tu," the Feathered One from Yin Corpse Valley said hoarsely, "Is there still a way to repair this blood sacrifice great array?"

The old man from Demonic Sword Sect also said, "If things truly cannot be done, we should make plans early. Whether to withdraw or stay, to attack or defend, we must plan early."

As long as the green hills remain, there is no fear of lacking firewood.

As demonic path Feathered Ones, who hadn't experienced several ups and downs in life?

As long as the foundation of the great array was still there, or rather, as long as the disciples of these demonic sects were still there, there would always be ways.

Mr. Tu's expression was ice cold, and he was also pondering in his heart how to reconstruct the great array and how to reverse the current unfavorable situation.

But after only a few breaths of thought, Mr. Tu's face changed.

"Still not right."

He had previously felt a chill that alarmed him.

Now that the array core had exploded, although the loss was heavy, it was still far from making him cold all over.

This meant that all this was not yet over?

Mr. Tu's pupils widened slightly.

That strange smiling face appeared in his mind again, and besides innocence and strangeness, a trace of 'cruelty' also emerged.

As if a heavenly demon from beyond the domain was smiling at him.

Just at this time, changes occurred again.

Under the ruins, a wisp of reverse power revived from the dead ashes, like a 'relay' in general, starting the second round of disintegration.

And the target of this round of disintegration was...

Mr. Tu was alarmed in his heart: "Array eye?!"

First collapse the array core, then collapse the array eye?

And the array eye of the barren heaven blood sacrifice great array was precisely that one, the heart of the ancient demon of the great wilderness!

Mr. Tu immediately turned pale, then his flesh body transformed, turning into a mass of flesh, drilling into the bottom of the ruins, wanting to protect the array eye.

But a step slow was step by step slow, everything was already too late.

The reverse spiritual power had already spread out.

The array eye of the barren heaven blood sacrifice great array began to reverse, and the heart of the ancient demon of the great wilderness was covered with cracks.

Then the heart shattered, and the majestic blood-colored evil power contained within instantly gushed out like vast sea waves, surging along the predetermined array law path, spreading outwards all the way.

In the great array, many demonic cultivators and most flesh and blood demons were irrigated and swallowed by these sea tide-like evil powers.

Evil power was the root of the demonic cultivators' cultivation path.

Majestic evil power, they originally sought it but could not get it.

But the problem was, the evil power contained within the entire blood sacrifice array eye, the entire heart of the ancient demon of the great wilderness, was really too majestic, majestic to the point that it exceeded the upper limit of the demonic cultivators' endurance.

Many Foundation Building demonic cultivators began to overload with evil power and exploded to death.

Even some flesh and blood demons could not bear it and began to distort their flesh bodies, then their limbs transformed, self-exploding and dying. With the ancient demon array eye as the core, a dense stock of evil power instantly exploded, spreading to the sky.

The heart's evil power plus the self-exploded flesh and blood condensed into a wipe of fresh red blood color, smeared on the barren heaven blood sacrifice great array.

Looking from afar, it was like a volcanic eruption in general.

Only, this 'fire' was built by flesh and blood, cruel and beautiful.

On the Sword Viewing Tower, a crowd of Cave Void old ancestors were all speechless.

Inside the blood sacrifice great array, Mr. Tu and several others immersed in evil power were similarly shocked beyond words.

Then, before everyone could think clearly, what followed was the third round of disintegration.

The array eye had collapsed, and the evil power and blood, like a 'volcano' erupting, only left a wipe of blood red on the horizon.

But the next instant, in the middle of this blood red, another layer of crystalline blue surged out.

This was the color of spiritual power.

The barren heaven blood sacrifice great array relied on wanton killing, acquiring large amounts of cultivators' skin, flesh, bone, and blood as array law material to be built.

But the Sword Discussion Assembly underwent various changes because of Mo Hua. In haste, Mr. Tu had to start the blood sacrifice great array in advance, so the early stage preparation was insufficient, and in the later stage, it was again suppressed by the various forces of Qian Xue. The killing by the demonic cultivators was restrained, the great array lacked materials, and a large number of array masters also died.

Under these heavy difficulties, Mr. Tu had no choice but to use Mo Hua as an array master, using the righteous path's array law system to assist in building the barren heaven blood sacrifice great array.

Therefore, this set of blood sacrifice great array was a righteous and evil parallel array law system.

Inside the great array, spiritual power and evil power coexisted.

The evil power part was in charge of Mr. Tu.

While the spiritual power part was completely controlled by Mo Hua.

Before this, spiritual power and evil power stood side by side, not interfering with each other.

But Mo Hua broke this balance. He first collapsed the array core, then collapsed the array eye, and then let the evil power and spiritual power intertwine.

In the cultivation world, the myriad forces of heaven and earth mutually produced and restrained each other, mutually accommodated and repelled each other, in opposition and unity.

Evil power and spiritual power were both kinds of heaven and earth cultivation forces.

Blue spiritual power and red evil power, upon contact, intertwined with each other. Righteous and evil power strangled each other, repelled each other, but also mutually transformed and penetrated each other.

The previous two disintegrations were only paving the way.

And this was what Mo Hua finally wanted to 'disintegrate'.

The barren heaven blood sacrifice great array, with its momentum of combining vertical and horizontal forces, covered the periphery of Qian Xue, a total of nine medium and small states, the overall scale was too large.

The first layer of array core disintegration, the core collapsed, but it only affected a very small area.

The second layer of array eye disintegration, evil power spread, also only occupied one-fifth of the great array.

But the third layer, also the final disintegration prepared by Mo Hua, borrowed the reverse change of spiritual power and evil power intertwining, yet like a spring wind blowing through a wild fire, almost in the blink of an eye, it spread to the entire barren heaven blood sacrifice great array.

Inside the ruins, after the previous two times of reversal, enough 'disintegration' power had accumulated, like a large piece of fire seeds.

At this time, massive spiritual power and evil power penetrated and intertwined, like a huge 'explosive' situated at a critical point.

Fire seeds met explosive, almost instantly ignited.

Disintegration power ignited the ocean-like spiritual power and evil power.

In that instant, the whole piece of heaven and earth darkened.

Daylight was swallowed, pitch black covered heaven and earth,

The blood color covering the sky, the crystalline blue, were all covered by the pitch black color of disintegration.

Whether it was blood-colored evil power or blue spiritual power, when they intertwined, they all brought on a layer of terrifying black edge.

Then, heaven and earth were in a state of deep silence.

The 'silence extinction' that dissolved all things began.

Whether it was spiritual power or evil power, they all began to 'disintegrate' from the root. Even all things contaminated by these reverse spiritual power and evil power began to be quietly, yet irresistibly, 'dissolved', turning into pitch black powder.

Mountain rocks turned into black ash, dissolving layer by layer.

Grass and trees instantly withered into powder.

Large pieces of mountains and rivers, like paintings, were wiped away by pitch black ink, disappearing out of thin air.

Countless demonic cultivators died in an instant.

They feared, struggled, roared, bellowed, shouted—their faces distorted one by one, hysterical, yet like 'ink people' in a black and white painting, under the terrifying disintegration power, they were torn apart and destroyed along with the painting, disintegrating into ash.

And this terrifying disintegration power was still continuously breeding.

Death and extinction covered heaven and earth.

Cultivators in all the states of Qian Xue, before this disintegration where heaven and earth had no light, mountains and rivers changed color, and all things were silent, were all horrified and lost their spirits. Whether they were Dao Court Si Dian Si Zhi Si, elders and disciples of various families and sects, or cultivators from various places who came to view the sword, or scattered cultivators in the periphery of Qian Xue who were uneasy because of the demonic affliction, at this time, all these cultivators raised their heads, looking at this terrifying scene of disintegration power swallowing heaven and earth, shocked and stunned.

Even the always well-informed old ancestors of various families and sects had trembling pupils and were silent.

And on the topmost layer of the Sword Viewing Tower.

A white-haired old man, looking at the scene of all things dying on the horizon, was similarly lost in thought, the chess piece in his hand stopped in mid-air, not falling for a long time.

In the end, the chess piece fell on the chessboard, and the old man sighed lightly.

Spiritual power and evil power merge, mutually accommodate and repel, penetrate and transform, then with disintegration power, forcibly 'dissociate' them, thereby triggering more powerful disintegration power. This disintegration, from the root, does not disintegrate the array law, nor spiritual power, or evil power.

But it is the 'law' of righteous and evil mutually repelling and merging.

In other words, this is preliminary 'yin yang reverse change'.

The old man couldn't help but sigh again.

Yin yang was how ancient cultivators understood the laws of heaven.

All things in heaven and earth followed the principle of yin yang. Learning any array law, even any cultivation method, Dao method, pill method, talisman method, all could be understood by analogy, understanding the道理 of the great Dao of yin yang.

But this道理 was both simple and complex.

Especially array law.

This involved extremely high and profound derivation methods.

To truly use disintegration power to conduct yin yang reverse solution and peel off the law, one needed extremely powerful divine sense, extremely vast calculation power, and extremely deep array law attainment, as well as extremely clever derivation methods.

In addition, one needed patience, perseverance, and comprehension to accurately derive the various situations after the array core disintegration and the myriad changes of spiritual power, thereby conducting precise planning for the disintegration, with a continuous beginning and end, layer by layer control, secretly laying killing mechanisms. The changes within this were too many.

The control was too precise.

The derivation involved was also too... abnormal...

The old man frowned, and in the end, sighed deeply again. This was his third sigh, and at the same time, he also muttered in his heart:

"That little boy surnamed Zhuang, what exactly did he teach? Does he have any idea in his heart? What can he teach?"

"Does he even know what 'thing' he taught?"

Previously, the most headache was that little boy surnamed Zhuang.

Fine, now that surnamed Zhuang is gone, just after ten years, his disciple has come to take over.

"People are gone and still not peaceful—really a bit worrying."

The old man rubbed his forehead, and then turned his head to look out the window.

Outside the window, heaven and earth were still dim, the barren heaven blood sacrifice great array was still disintegrating, and the power of silence and extinction was still swallowing everything.

Heaven and earth were Yin Han, like the nine nether.

The old man was silent, and after a moment, his gaze was solemn, and he murmured in disbelief:

"This is not 'taking over' ah——"

"This heaven-shaking killing尊 this time... a lot of people are going to be wiped out ah——"

"Surnamed Zhuang in the past... also didn't dare to kill like this..."

Mr. Xun also gazed out the window, and after the initial shock and loss of spirits, he also realized something, his face becoming increasingly solemn.

The barren heaven blood sacrifice great array was covered by pitch black color.

Inside the great array, one life after another was directly wiped out, and more and more.

These lives not only included cultivators from various demonic path sects but also countless flesh and blood demons, and large numbers of strange demonic path blood slaves, household slaves, color slaves, spirit slaves—

Now these people, these beings, were contaminated by the terrible great array disintegration power of 'yin yang reverse change' and were all wiped out clean.

Whether Qi Refining, Foundation Building, or Gold Core, all would die.

Even if they were of the demonic path, too many were killed.

Truly too many.

This inexhaustible quantity made Mr. Xun's scalp numb.

The two words 'kill beings' may not be that simple, this is associated with cause and effect, and will condense baleful aura.

The more one kills, the heavier the killing karma they bear on their body.

The thicker the baleful aura in their fate pattern.

Suppose the current great array disintegration was truly Mo Hua's hand, and he disintegrated and killed so many demonic path beings, then his 'killing karma' this time would probably truly 'reach heaven'.

To what degree would his baleful aura be thick and fierce? Mr. Xun didn't even dare to think, fearing that saying it was like an abyss or a vast sea wouldn't be an exaggeration.

This might absolutely not be a good thing.

The key was that Mo Hua's cultivation age was only twenty-plus years, and on his back was this heaven-reaching, sea-like killing karma and baleful aura...

Mr. Xun's eyebrows were tightly frowned, anxious in his heart, his chest even feeling as if a heavy stone was pressing on it.

But since the great array had collapsed and the killing karma had been opened, it would not be transferred by anyone's will.

Mo Hua's behavior this time was truly 'destroying households and extinguishing traces', 'destroying arrays and extinguishing households'. The disintegration power he triggered was too strong. Inside the barren heaven blood sacrifice great array, almost all beings were hard to escape death.

Heaven and earth were silent, beings were wiped out.

One by one dead souls returned to the nine nether.

The whole piece of heaven and earth was smeared with the color of killing, almost everyone could feel a stock of Yin Han that penetrated to the bone marrow.

And every one of these dead souls recorded one pen for Mo Hua's 'killing karma' and also made his baleful aura thicker by one point.

Don't know how long passed, suddenly the sky edge was covered with dense dark clouds, and thunder suddenly rose.

Mr. Xun's face changed greatly, and other Cave Void cultivators also looked over, showing fear.

A stock of heavenly Dao breath that made all cultivators, including Cave Void cultivators, fearful came.

Fresh red piercing thunder light descended from the sky edge.

In an instant, it wiped out four paths of life force.

These four paths of life force were Feathered Ones!

And this path of red light was the heavenly Dao thunder tribulation!

The barren heaven blood sacrifice great array had disintegrated, and the terrifying power of silence and extinction had forcefully driven four honored Feathered Ones onto the path of death.

This also meant that in Mo Hua's difficult-to-describe 'heaven-shaking killing karma', four paths, the most thick ink and heavy color, had been added:

He disintegrated the great array and forced to death a full four honored Feathered Ones!
