Chapter 765 The Truth about the Contract on a Rainy Day
Dark clouds descended on the city, and streaks of purple lightning raged across the sky like giant dragons. The entire cultivation world was enveloped by this sudden, heart-destroying thunder tribulation. Yun Yao and Chu Mochen exchanged a solemn glance. They knew full well that this thunder tribulation was no ordinary one; it was bound to be a major test for Yun Yao on her path of cultivation.
Yun Yao took a deep breath, her spiritual energy surging frantically. The Heaven-Defying Fate Disk hovered above her head, emitting a dazzling light, attempting to ward off the impending thunderbolts. However, as the first bolt of lightning struck, she felt an unprecedented pressure. This thunderbolt tribulation contained a strange power, as if it could strike directly at her deepest fears.
In an instant, Yun Yao's consciousness was pulled into an illusory dimension. She saw the future she most hated: Chu Mochen blocked a fatal blow for her, and the familiar figure slowly collapsed before her eyes. Before his death, he smiled and said, "This is the seventeenth time I die for you." Chu Mochen's smile was like a sharp blade, piercing Yun Yao's heart, and tears flowed uncontrollably. She roared and rushed towards Chu Mochen, trying to grasp the fading figure, but found that her body was bound by an invisible force, and she could only watch the tragedy unfold.
"No!" Yun Yao screamed amidst the thunderstorm, her voice filled with despair and resentment. Her spiritual energy began to fluctuate, and the light of the Heaven-Defying Fate Plate began to flicker. At this moment, an even more powerful thunderbolt descended, striking Yun Yao directly. In the nick of time, Yun Yao summoned the Heaven-Defying Fate Plate, pouring all her spiritual energy into it, attempting to reverse time.
A miracle occurred. Time actually began to flow backwards, returning to the moment before Chu Mochen was about to block the attack. Yun Yao desperately pushed Chu Mochen away, but this action only triggered an even stronger counterattack from the thunder tribulation. Dark clouds in the sky rolled wildly, and bolts of lightning, thicker than the previous ones, fell one after another. Yun Yao's body was scarred by the thunder, and blood continued to flow.
After the thunderstorm, Yun Yao knelt weakly on the ground, gasping for breath. Her consciousness was hazy, but her heart was filled with the relief of having survived. At this moment, the system revealed its first ripples beyond the mechanical sound: "Host has successfully activated the 'Eye of Reversed Time,' but each use will accelerate the disintegration of the Destiny Disk. Don't forget, the 'Hongmeng Fragments' you obtained in the Netherworld Illusionary Realm contain the method to repair it..."
Yun Yao forced herself to hold on and retrieved the fragment of the Hongmeng Scroll. The words on the scroll suddenly became clear: "You must collect the 'Original Power' of the Three Thousand Worlds. For each one you collect, you will be able to see him one more time." Looking at the words, Yun Yao felt a mixture of emotions. She understood that her future with Chu Mochen would be closely linked to the Origin Power of the Three Thousand Worlds.
Just as Yun Yao was thinking about her future plans, Chu Mochen suddenly showed a strange expression. His eyes became cold and unfamiliar, and his aura changed dramatically, as if he was controlled by a mysterious force. Yun Yao was startled and looked at Chu Mochen warily, shouting, "Mochen, what's wrong with you?"
Chu Mochen didn't respond, instead launching an attack at Yun Yao. His moves were fierce, each one aimed directly at Yun Yao's vital points. Yun Yao dodged while trying to awaken Chu Mochen's consciousness, but no matter how she called out, Chu Mochen seemed to be clouded by his thoughts, and his attacks became increasingly fierce.
During the fierce battle, Yun Yao discovered that Chu Mochen's attacks seemed to be mixed with a familiar aura - it was the mysterious power she felt in the Netherworld. She immediately understood that Chu Mochen must be controlled by some force, and this force was likely related to their previous experience.
Yun Yao stopped defending herself passively. She mobilized all her spiritual energy, unleashing the causal techniques she had learned in the Void Realm. Through the power of causality, she attempted to uncover the source of Chu Mochen's control. However, just as she was about to uncover the truth, a powerful force suddenly erupted from Chu Mochen's body, sending her flying.
Yun Yao fell heavily to the ground, blood oozing from the corner of her mouth. She looked at Chu Mochen, eyes filled with pain and helplessness. At this moment, the Heaven-Defying Fate Plate on her chest suddenly emitted a warm light, enveloping her and Chu Mochen. Miraculously, the coldness in Chu Mochen's eyes gradually dissipated, and his former gentleness returned.
"Yao'er, I...what's wrong with me?" Chu Mochen looked at Yun Yao, who was covered in wounds, his heart full of guilt and self-blame.
Yun Yao endured the pain and said with a smile, "It's okay, you were just controlled by a mysterious power." She told Chu Mochen her guess, and the two decided to explore the source of this mysterious power together.
They began to recall their past experiences, from the Netherworld to the fragments of the Primordial Scroll, from each battle to each breakthrough in their realm. Suddenly, Yun Yao remembered the Fate Star Jade Slip she had obtained from the Pure World Lotus. It seemed to hold some secret about their fate. She took out the slip and studied it carefully.
At that moment, the jade slip suddenly emitted a ray of light, enveloping the two. When the light dissipated, they found themselves in a mysterious space. It was pitch black, save for tiny flickers of light in the distance. Cautiously, the two approached the light. As they drew closer, they discovered that it was actually fragments of memories from their seventeen reincarnations.
They saw that in the first life, the Lord of War Halberd, in order to protect the Holy Maiden of Heaven, did not hesitate to make enemies with the entire divine world and eventually fell; in the second life, they became an ordinary couple in the mortal world, but were separated by fate; in the third life... The memories of each life were full of pain and helplessness, but also with firm protection and love.
Among these memory fragments, Yun Yao and Chu Mochen also discovered some strange images. A mysterious figure appeared in the image, who seemed to be secretly controlling their fate, and the aura emanating from this figure was very similar to the power controlling Chu Mochen.
"It turns out that our fate has been calculated from the very beginning." Chu Mochen clenched his fists, a hint of anger flashing in his eyes.
Yun Yao pondered for a moment and said, "No matter who is behind this, we will not surrender. We have experienced seventeen reincarnations and finally come together. We must not let anyone ruin our future."
They decided to leave this mysterious dimension first and return to the real world before finding a solution. When they emerged from the jade slip's space, they discovered that several days had passed in the outside world. Even more surprising was the sudden emergence of numerous rumors about them in the cultivation world. Some claimed they were corrupted by evil forces, while others claimed they would bring disaster to the world.
Yun Yao and Chu Mochen exchanged a glance. They understood this was a conspiracy, a plot to weaken their power and perhaps even turn the entire cultivation world against them. Faced with this sudden predicament, they didn't flinch, but instead strengthened their resolve. They knew the road ahead would be filled with difficulties and obstacles, but as long as they stood by each other, no difficulty was insurmountable.
In the days that followed, Yun Yao and Chu Mochen began a secret investigation into the source of this mysterious power. They visited numerous ancient sects and consulted countless texts before finally finding some clues in a long-lost tome. The tome stated that in ancient times, a force called the "Wheel of Destiny" existed, capable of controlling the fate of all things. To harness this power, one must gather sufficient causal energy.
Yun Yao was startled. She suddenly realized that her Heaven-Defying Fate Plate and the power of the Three Thousand Worlds she had collected might be the key to the Wheel of Destiny. And that mysterious figure might be using them to control the Wheel of Destiny and thus dominate the fate of the entire universe.
Just as they were about to investigate further, Liu Yan'er of the Chaos Demon Sect suddenly appeared. She seemed even more powerful than before, emanating a terrifying aura of chaos. "Yun Yao, Chu Mochen, do you think you can escape fate?" Liu Yan'er sneered, "You are nothing more than pawns on our chessboard."
Yun Yao looked at Liu Yan'er, a hint of coldness flashed in her eyes: "Liu Yan'er, no matter what conspiracy you have, we will not let you succeed."
A fierce battle breaks out again, with Yun Yao and Chu Mochen joining forces to fight Liu Yan'er. During the battle, Yun Yao discovers that Liu Yan'er's attack method is inextricably linked to the power that controls Chu Mochen, and she is even more certain that there must be a powerful force behind Liu Yan'er.
As the battle reached a fever pitch, Liu Yan'er suddenly unleashed a mysterious spell, and a giant Wheel of Destiny appeared around her. As the Wheel of Destiny slowly spun, Yun Yao and Chu Mochen felt their movements severely restricted, as if bound by an invisible force.
At this critical moment, Yun Yao suddenly remembered the "Eye of Time Reversal" she had just activated. Regardless of the risk of the Heaven-Defying Fate Disk collapsing, she once again unleashed this power. Time rewinded again, and Liu Yan'er's spell had yet to be fully unleashed. Yun Yao seized this opportunity and unleashed her most powerful attack, while Chu Mochen coordinated with her. Their twin soul fires blazed fiercely as they attacked Liu Yan'er.
Liu Yan'er hadn't anticipated Yun Yao's ability to unleash such formidable power, and was momentarily caught off guard. Under the attack of the twin soul flames, the phantom of her Wheel of Destiny gradually dissipated, and her body was severely damaged. She looked at Yun Yao and Chu Mochen unwillingly, gritting her teeth and saying, "Don't get complacent. This isn't over yet. The masters behind us won't let you go." With that, Liu Yan'er vanished into a wisp of black mist.
Although they successfully repelled Liu Yan'er, Yun Yao and Chu Mochen knew a greater crisis lay ahead. They decided to accelerate their efforts to gather the source power of the Three Thousand Worlds while simultaneously enhancing their own strength to meet the impending challenge. Unbeknownst to them, a mysterious figure was watching all this, a meaningful smile playing on his lips. A greater conspiracy was quietly brewing...
