Heaven Slaying Blade

The destruction of the Chu royal family did not come from a higher existence!

It was deliberately mystified, and the original truth was artificially covered up.

The blame was cast onto that nonexistent... Great Ancestor!

So much so that countless people in later generations believed this point.

As for why there are historical gaps in the ancient histories of the Tunnel, it doesn't matter to Chu Mo anymore.

Those ancient clans, because of Young Master Chu in his past life, developed the Heaven Slaying dharma instrument that defied the heavens and shook their foundations! Therefore, they directly attacked the entire Chu royal family. Young Master Chu in his past life, should have chosen to disintegrate his body for reincarnation at that time!

Since Chu Mo already knows all of this, then, as the Buddha said, this is your karma, it is your responsibility.

But... why is it mine? Is it because in my past life, I researched Heaven Slaying?

Qi Xiaoyu looked at Chu Mo and said softly, "I think what the Buddha meant was exactly that."

Yiyi also nodded beside him, "I believe so too."

"Do you think... the one who developed the Investiture of the Gods was really my ancestor? The ancestor of the Chu royal family?" Chu Mo's lips twitched slightly, and his face showed disbelief.

Qi Xiaoyu said faintly, "Husband, don't forget, they are all ancient clans of the Tunnel, but the Chu lineage, in the Tunnel, is the royal family!"

This sentence, like a bolt of lightning, instantly struck Chu Mo's heart!

The Chu lineage, in the Tunnel, is the royal family!

What kind of place is the Tunnel? It is the real center of this vast universe!

The most peerless powerhouses gather here!

To be called a royal family in such a place, how powerful must such a family be? Chu Mo found it somewhat unimaginable. But at the very least, it can be confirmed that this Chu royal family must have been stronger than those ancient clans!

The reason Chu Mo has always been misled is that the destruction of the Chu royal family was too decisive!

A powerful big clan was wiped out overnight. Not a single survivor was left from the whole family. They all died!

Anyone analyzing such a matter would probably not think it was the work of those ancient clans.

Casting the blame onto a non-existent Great Ancestor is truly the best move. Just like a Supreme being who can easily destroy a family with countless ancestral realms. Then, a Great Ancestor surpassing the Supreme, wanting to wipe out a family guarded by a Supreme, isn't it also just a matter of thought?

Chu Mo had always believed this statement, but he never expected that the real enemies had always been there.

All the ancient clans joined forces to weave an enormous lie!

Even as to whether there were ever gaps in the Tunnel's ancient history, it's uncertain!

Because only by destroying a large amount of ancient history can everyone believe in the existence of that Great Ancestor, fully concealing the crimes they committed.

Chu Mo exhaled a long breath; in his heart, there was some sadness.

If things are really as the Buddha said, that the Investiture of the Gods, the Edict of the Investiture of the Gods, and the divine nature all originated from the Chu royal family, then all the roots of evil also arise from the Chu royal family. This is the cause of everything!

Therefore, there was the disaster suffered by that sage, and thus the destruction of the later Chu royal family...

This is already a complete cycle of cause and effect!

Those who deceive the heavens... are ultimately deceived by the heavens.

In this way, Chu Mo even doesn't have a reason to seek revenge against those ancient clans for the Chu royal family. Because everything before had its cause.

But even if Chu Mo can let go of this hatred, he must change all of this. Just like the vow he made, he wants to change all of this! He wants to let those beings controlled by divine nature completely gain freedom!

When they live until, and when they pass on, that's their own business!

To fulfill this vow, he must confront those ancient clans.

Thinking of this, Chu Mo couldn't help but smile bitterly. Although the purpose is not the same, the result... is actually the same.

However, different causes lead to... possibly different effects.

The blue giant eagle flaps its massive wings, soaring in the endless sky. Suddenly, it asked, "Master, are we really going to confront those ancient clans and become their enemies?"

"Yes." Chu Mo replied, "Are you afraid?"

"A little afraid," the blue giant eagle replied very honestly, "They're too powerful! The entire Tunnel is controlled by those ancient clans. But following the master, I'm not afraid."

"You will die." Chu Mo said.

"Dust to dust, ashes to ashes, death is not to be feared," the blue giant eagle said.

This might be the blue giant eagle's unintentional words, but it left Chu Mo silent for a long time.

The fear of countless individuals, the fear of countless beings, even the fear mixed with helplessness of Spiritual Master Lingtong—is essentially nothing but one's own inner demons.

Especially for someone like Spiritual Master Lingtong, who possesses talents of divine proportions, he still prudently refused Chu Mo's proposal to cut away his divine nature.

He feared the involvement of the Great Ancestor!

But there is no great ancestor.

Sometimes the truth is just that unspeakable.

On the road, Chu Mo fulfilled the promise he had made before. He took hundreds of beings from the ancestral realm away from their original homeland, flying towards the center of the Tunnel.

This was a massive team, with unparalleled strength. The entire journey back was incredibly smooth. They almost didn't encounter a single being foolish enough to cause trouble.

Chu Mo still did not use the teleportation array and continued to discreetly avoid human activity areas.

When their figures reappeared at Xiushui Villa, everything seemed unchanged.

This round trip consumed more than forty years. When Spiritual Master Lingtong saw them, a look of joy appeared on his face.

When Chu Mo saw him, the first thing he said was, "In this world, there is no great ancestor."

Spiritual Master Lingtong was stunned, standing there dumbfounded, like a statue.

Qi Xiaoyu and Yiyi cast a slightly reproachful glance at Chu Mo, somewhat blaming him for being too direct.

For a being like Spiritual Master Lingtong, changing a belief that has endured endless years instantly is very difficult. At the very least, he needs some time to adapt. But Chu Mo cut straight to the point, with an uncompromising bluntness.

Spiritual Master Lingtong did not question as expected; instead, he remained quietly silent, standing there without moving.

After a long time, a bitter smile appeared on his face.

Then, the laughter grew louder.

"Hahahaha, hahahahahaha... hahahahaha!"

Laughing until tears flowed, then with a loud "wah," he spewed a mouthful of blood.

"Are you all right?" Qi Xiaoyu and Yiyi rushed over from both sides to support Spiritual Master Lingtong.

Then, the two women exchanged a glance. Deep down, they had actually accepted this old man as their father from their past lives. Such a feeling stirring from the depths of their souls cannot deceive.

Spiritual Master Lingtong shook his head, "Good daughters, good daughters, father is fine, father is happy…"

Saying this, Spiritual Master Lingtong couldn't help but shed tears.

Chu Mo felt somewhat emotional too, and at such a moment, remaining silent was the best comfort he could offer Spiritual Master Lingtong.

Because with just this one sentence from Chu Mo, Spiritual Master Lingtong didn't need any explanation; he could understand everything himself!

Long after, Spiritual Master Lingtong sighed, "I was so miserably deceived by those old bastards among the ancient clans in the Tunnel! A non-existent great ancestor… deceived me through so many reincarnations? Even set up so many schemes. Bound so much karma. Very good… very good indeed! Just wait for me! I will find each one of you to settle accounts!"

Spiritual Master Lingtong said, looking at Chu Mo, "Come, child, sever my divine character!"

Decisive and straightforward!

Such a matter, without that invisible binding, really leaves no room for hesitation.

"Where is your Edict of the Investiture of the Gods and the Investiture Tablet now?" Chu Mo asked, looking at Spiritual Master Lingtong.

"Here." Spiritual Master Lingtong spread his hand, revealing an ancient Edict of the Investiture of the Gods and a Investiture Tablet in his hand.

"On this, besides you, are there others still alive?" Chu Mo asked.

Spiritual Master Lingtong nodded, "On this, plus me, there are thirty-six still alive." Saying this, he took a glance at Chu Mo, "Later, I will find them all, and then you shall slay them one by one!"

Chu Mo nodded.

In Spiritual Master Lingtong's eyes, boundless relief appeared as he looked at Chu Mo, "Rest assured, child, even if your enemy is the entire Tunnel, I will stand by your side. No being, no existence shall trouble you!"

In a massive small world, there were only Chu Mo and Spiritual Master Lingtong.

Here he would sever the divine character.

Chu Mo summoned the beheading path, summoned nine other blood moons, suspended the Celestial Mirror above his head, stepping on the Chaos Furnace. Using Heaven Slaying to settle the qi movement here.

Spiritual Master Lingtong, with a solemn face, also wielding over a dozen ancient dharma instruments, used these instruments to stabilize everything in this small world.

This matter, although they almost had absolute certainty, had to be taken seriously.

After the beheading path appeared, it smiled slightly at Chu Mo, then transformed into a blade, flying into Chu Mo's hand.

"This slash, you will make!"

The other nine blood moons, at this moment, all transformed into beams of light, entering the blade formed by the beheading path!

That blade exuded boundless Dao Energy, which was something Chu Mo had never felt before. At this moment, a slight pulsation suddenly came from deep within his soul.

He finally somewhat understood!

At this moment, although Chu Mo had not yet recalled all the aspects of his past life, he could already feel that trace of reincarnation power. It sealed off a certain place in his soul. At the instant when the ten blood moons unified... and transformed into a blade, a slight loosening appeared in the sealed place within his soul.

Then, Chu Mo raised the blade, towards the forehead of Spiritual Master Lingtong… and slashed.
