Chapter 440: Chapter 279: Change of Momentum_1


    “…”


    “…”


    People from both sides furrowed their brows, but still, they took the two Eight Trigrams Mirrors.


    With eight trigrams around the edges and a circle in the center, the mirrors reflected thendscape of the Forty-eight Domains.


    “Hmm!?”


    “In the Mysterious Domain?”


    Seeing this, their brows furrowed even more.


    After the Millennium Cmity, the world profoundly changed, forming the pattern of the Forty-eight Domains, with each domain surpassing the nations of old.


    As such, their vast expanse is hard to imagine.


    Even for a Divine Intent Venerable, to travel through each domain would take half a month’s time.<div>


    Now, the position shown by the Eight Trigrams Mirror indicates that person is in thend of the Mysterious Domain, nearly ten million miles away from Dao Concealing Peak.


    Separated by ten million miles, yet capable of executing such Curse Skill, maintaining it under the protection of a great formation, and tormenting a Divine Intent Venerable to such a state?


    Even if there’s cause and effect involvement and bacsh from the Skill of Heavenly Mechanism, isn’t the power of this Curse Skill too terrifying?


    And this is not even the full extent of that person’s abilities!


    Back then, what exactly did heprehend within the Temple of War God?


    Everyone’s heart filled with dark thoughts, and Pce Master Shen Chongrong of the Evergreen Pce also had his eyebrows tightly knitted together.


    “Thend of the Mysterious Domain, nearly ten million miles from here, even if we were to rush at full speed, it would still take several days, not to mention that person might flee.”


    Shen Chongrong looked towards Dao Wuya, “Brother Dao, can you still…”


    Dao Wuya shook his head and said softly, “This Curse of the Seven Massacre, one strike per day, each strike surpassing thest, together with the bacsh of fate from the Skill of Heavenly Mechanism, I managed to survive this time entirely thanks to the effect of the Eternal Evergreen Pill; at most, I can hold on for three more days. After three days, if this curse is not lifted, I will undoubtedly die.”


    “This…”


    Hearing this, everyone looked at one another, at a loss for what to do.


    In the end, it was Chen Tianjie who spoke, “Considering the situation, we have no other choice but to do our best.”


    After speaking, he bowed to Dao Wuya and then led the people of the Evil Path away.


    Once the Evil Path departed, the Righteous Path did not linger either, and they also hurried away,


    Leaving only the neutral parties, silent and speechless.


    Raising tigers invites cmity; when the tiger growsrge, it hunts humans!


    It was thought that repairing the pen after the sheep are lost was not yet toote, yet who could have anticipated…


    Now that things havee to this, what is to be done?


    Is there still a chance for reversal?<div>


    The crowd was silent, and Dao Wuya turned his gaze, “I thank everyone for their trouble this time, my two disciples and I have matters to discuss…”


    “Brother Dao, take good care of yourself. It’s not yet the final step; everything is still possible,” they said, recognizing the situation.


    Upon hearing this, the crowd nodded in understanding, offered their constions, and then turned to leave one by one.


    In the end, only Dao Wuya and his two disciples remained in Qiankun Hall.<div>


    “Cough, cough, cough!”


    No sooner had everyone left than Dao Wuya began to cough violently, spitting blood and hisplexion turned deathly pale.


    “Wuya!?”


    His master and grandmaster were shocked to see this and hurried to treat his injuries.


    However, Dao Wuya gestured for them to stop, and said solemnly, “The Taoist True Scriptures, the Curse Killing Skill, indeed extraordinary and most likely not of this world; I have exhausted all my means. Masters, there is no need to waste your efforts; quickly take the Qiankun Bagua Stele to the Divine Martial Alliance, and entrust it to Ren Weidao… cough, cough!”


    “This…”


    Upon hearing his words, both were frowning deeply.


    Dao Wuya shook his head and said in a deep voice, “The skill of that man in the Art of Heavenly Mechanism far surpasses ours; even with our Curse Spells and the entanglement of karma, we may not be able to pin him down. Moreover, it is possible to be misled by his diversionary tactics. My Pavilion of Heavenly Mechanism must be his primary target. Therefore, we can only seek refuge with the Righteous Path now.”


    “The Divine Martial Alliance holds the Preheaven Qi and the Yin and Yang Ultimate steles, andbined with the profound mysteries of the Qiankun Bagua, there is hope of further advancement in both Martial Path Yuan Skill and the Art of Heavenly Mechanism. Therefore, Ren Weidao has tried to recruit me multiple times, but it’s a pity I’ve always tactfully refused.”


    “Now, my Pavilion of Heavenly Mechanism has reached a life and death crisis, and only by joining the Divine Martial Alliance is there a sliver of hope for survival!”


    Exining the situation with his words, Dao Wuya looked up at the two, “Tell Ren Weidao, the strategies for attack and defense have changed—differently now!”


    …


    Three dayster, in the Mysterious Domain.<div>


    Chen Tianjie, looking at the Eight Trigrams Mirror in his hands, wore a somber expression and uttered not a word.


    “Great Protector!”


    Two Divine Intent Venerables came forward to report, “We have searched all around, dug three feet into the ground, yet found no trace.”


    “Pavilion of Heavenly Mechanism, Dao Wuya… Hmph!”


    With a cold snort, Chen Tianjie held back furtherment, “Return to the altar; this person has established his influence, the state of attack and defense has changed; we must unite to guard firmly, or we will surely be defeated by him one by one.”


    “This… Yes!”


    Hearing this, although taken aback, they dared not question it and respectfully epted the orders and left with heavy hearts.


    Chen Tianjie turned back, looking at the Eight Trigrams Mirror in his hand, he clenched his palm and crushed it to powder.


    “Heaven Martial… Xu Qingyang!”


    “Consider this your victory for now; two hundred yearster, when the Temple of War God opens, we shall see the final oue!”


    “Hmph!!!”


    …


    Pavilion of Heavenly Mechanism, Dao Concealing Peak.<div>


    Inside Qiankun Hall, two sat facing each other.


    Dao Wuya’splexion was ashen, his long hair disheveled. Even though he wore a new Taoist robe, there was no longer any trace of his former fairy-like grace. His spirit had withered away to nothing, approaching the brink of death.


    Before him, Pce Master Shen Chongrong of the Evergreen Pce remained silent,menting in his heart.


    In three days, the Curse Spell had been cast twice more, each strike more potent than thest, torturing his friend beyond recognition. Even as he stood guard and offered the second Eternal Evergreen Pill, using his Evergreen True Qi to heal him, he could barely keep him alive to this day.


    Today was the fourth turn, and he had no confidence in saving him; Dao Wuya was already at the end of his rope, beyond saving.


    In four days, a Divine Intent Venerable was pushed to such a point of despair…


    Such Curse Skill was beyond malevolent, chilling to the core.


    “Brother Shen, there’s no need to worry!”


    Sensing Shen Chongrong’s concern, Dao Wuya let out a bitterugh and whispered hoarsely, “Although that Curse Skill is powerful, I’ve fallen into such a state primarily due to the bacsh of Heavenly Mechanism. Without that karmic retribution, his Curse Skill would never have brought me to these straits.”
