Chapter 535: Breakthrough from Despair, the Power of Rules
When Yun Yao's Hongmeng Heavenly Dao Sword drew the tenth sword mark in the chaotic void, the sword suddenly wailed. Her knuckles had long been cracked, and her lifeblood seeped into the sword embryo along the hilt, but it could only barely maintain the operation of the sword domain. The thousand-handed golem transformed by the remnant of the demon god was frantically beating her defense barrier, and every blow caused black ripples in the void, which was a sign of the corrosion of space.
"Yun Yao!" Chu Mochen's voice came from a distance, with an anxiety that was difficult to conceal. He was being entangled by three other golems, and the law of chaos formed a distorted space-time vortex around him, but he was unable to break through the encirclement.
Yun Yao's vision blurred for a moment, and the last scene of the modern laboratory flashed through her mind - the Nobel Prize ceremony that should have belonged to her, the moment when the glass dome suddenly broke. Why did fate involve her in this endless reincarnation? Her fingertips gently stroked her chest, where the scorching temperature of Chu Mochen's ancient bloodline when it awakened still remained.
"The host's vitality is about to run out. Should we activate the Hongmeng Retrieval?" The system's mechanical voice sounded in her sea of consciousness, but she forcibly cut it off. If she had to rely on the system every time she was in a desperate situation, how could she truly control her own destiny?
When the nineteenth crack appeared on the defense barrier, Yun Yao suddenly smiled. She sat cross-legged, letting the broken sword energy wreak havoc on her body. The Hongmeng sword embryo suddenly let out a dragon roar, hovering three feet above her head, and the sword body appeared with Hongmeng ancient characters that she had never seen before.
"So... this is the realm of rules." She murmured to herself, her fingertips lightly touching the surface of the sword embryo. Those obscure runes suddenly lit up and poured into her sea of consciousness like a galaxy pouring down.
Chu Mochen's pupils suddenly contracted. He saw translucent chains of laws appearing around Yun Yao. Those chains were materializing at a speed visible to the naked eye, and each one was entangled with different laws of power. Her long hair began to emit a primordial purple aura, and there was a faint scene of extinguished stars at the ends of her hair.
"Not good!" The three golems suddenly exploded amid the devil's regretful roar. Chu Mochen tried his best to tear open the crack in time and space, but he only had time to protect Yun Yao behind him. The shock wave of the explosion sent the two flying thousands of kilometers, and Chu Mochen's back left a shocking blood mark in the nebula.
"Don't...sleep..." Yun Yao's voice was so weak that it was almost inaudible. She trembled as she pressed her hand on Chu Mochen's chest. The warmth of the Chaos Heavenly Dao Body came through his clothes, reminding her of his body temperature when he blocked a fatal sword for her in the Guixu Secret Realm.
"Yaoyao..." Chu Mochen's call was swallowed up by the devil's remnant laughter. The black mist suddenly split into millions of tiny tentacles, wrapping the two of them into a cocoon. Yun Yao could clearly hear the sound of her bones breaking, but found that the pain was disappearing - her consciousness was leaving her body at a strange speed.
"The host's soul is about to be annihilated, and the ultimate defense program is activated." As the system sounded the last warning, Yun Yao's fingertips suddenly burst into golden light. It was the fragment of the Hongmeng origin that she found in the secret room of the holy land, and it was resonating with her Hongmeng combat body at this moment.
Under Chu Mochen's shocked gaze, Yun Yao's body began to decompose and reassemble. Her bones turned into stars, her blood condensed into crystals of laws, and finally she floated in the void of the universe in the form of a soul. The remnant of the demon god obviously also sensed the danger, and its tentacles instantly shrank into a black giant python, opening its mouth full of sharp teeth to devour her.
"Break it for me!" Yun Yao's soul body cried out silently. She mobilized all the memory fragments, combined modern scientific research thinking with the principles of cultivation, and constructed a "Hongmeng Rule Matrix" in her sea of consciousness that no one had ever tried before. The core of the matrix was the baby she saw in the Guixu Secret Realm - her past life.
When the first wisp of Hongmeng purple energy penetrated the black fog of the demon god, Chu Mochen finally broke free from the confinement of time and space. He saw Yun Yao's soul undergoing a terrible transformation: the chains of laws were wrapped around her like a living thing, each representing a different law of the universe. A sword-shaped mark appeared between her eyebrows, which was the embodiment of Hongmeng Heavenly Dao.
"This is... the Rule Realm..." Chu Mochen whispered, and the Chaos Saint Body began to absorb the surrounding chaotic energy uncontrollably. He suddenly realized that Yun Yao's breakthrough was rewriting the laws of the entire Hongmeng Universe, and as a Chaos Heavenly Dao Body, he had to resonate with it.
At the final moment of life and death, the two of them comprehended each other's Dao at the same time. Yun Yao's Hongmeng rules of life and death and Chu Mochen's laws of time and space chaos intertwined in the void, forming a Tai Chi Yin-Yang diagram. When the sharp teeth of the demon god's remnant were about to touch Yun Yao's soul, the Yin-Yang diagram suddenly exploded, releasing an energy storm that was enough to annihilate dimensions.
The universe fell into eternal silence at this moment. When Chu Mochen opened his eyes, he found himself suspended in a distorted flow of time and space, holding the unconscious Yun Yao in his arms. A galaxy-like band of light flowed under her skin, and every breath she took was creating a new microcosmic universe.
"Welcome to the realm of rules, my God of Creation." The system's voice was no longer cold, but rather a little relieved. Chu Mochen looked down and saw Yun Yao's eyelashes trembling slightly. Her soul contract was resonating with his chaotic bloodline.
Under their feet, the destroyed remnant of the demon god was reorganizing. But this time, a trace of Hongmeng purple energy was mixed into its power. Yun Yao slowly opened her eyes, flicked her fingertips, and the black mist turned into a docile black cat.
"Now, it's called Chaos." Yun Yao chuckled and handed the kitten to Chu Mochen. Chu Mochen raised his eyebrows: "Are you sure this is not a new trouble?"
"It is precisely because of the trouble that the Creator God needs to tame it personally." Yun Yao tiptoed to kiss his lips, and the stars lit up again behind them. This time, Chu Mochen clearly saw that what was flowing in Yun Yao's eyes was not only the Hongmeng purple energy, but also the countless possibilities of the multiverse.
The system prompt sounded at this time: "It is detected that the host has mastered the rules of life and death in Hongmeng, unlocking the hidden task "Fate Rewriter"
