Chapter 788 Chu Mochen's Godhead in His Previous Life
Chaotic clouds swirled above the mythical continent. Purple lightning like electric snakes ripped through the sky, illuminating the entire land in flickering light. Yun Yao and Chu Mochen stood side by side at the steps of an ancient altar, gazing upward at the golden vortex atop it, radiating a mysterious glow. Within the vortex, a dazzling fragment of the divine power could be vaguely seen slowly spinning, as if containing endless power and secrets.
"That is the fragment of your previous life's divinity." Yun Yao's voice was filled with excitement and nervousness. She turned to look at Chu Mochen beside her, her eyes full of anticipation.
Chu Mochen nodded slightly, his eyes firm and fiery. He gripped his halberd tightly, feeling the Candle Dragon bloodline within him stir restlessly, as if responding to the call of the fragment of the godhead. However, before they could act, a faint blue light suddenly shone around the altar, and three figures clad in white robes and golden masks slowly emerged. They were the Three Goddesses of Fate, each holding a thread shimmering with a strange light. The other end of the thread stretched into the distance, as if connecting the fate of the entire world.
"Outsiders, why do you covet this sealed fragment of the godhead?" The goddess in the middle spoke, her voice ethereal and cold, as if coming from another dimension.
Yun Yao took a deep breath, took a step forward, and said, "We need it. This is not only related to our destiny, but also to the future of countless worlds."
"Destiny cannot be defied," the goddess on the left said coldly, "The seal of the godhead fragment is to maintain the balance of the world. If you forcibly seize it, it will inevitably lead to disaster."
"But our fate has long been closely linked to this fragment of the godhead." Chu Mochen suddenly said, his voice low and powerful, "Seventeen reincarnations, countless encounters and separations, all for this moment."
The three goddesses of fate exchanged a glance, as if engaging in some kind of silent communication. After a moment, the goddess on the right spoke, "If you truly wish to obtain the fragments of the godhead, you must pass our test—use the memories of your seventeen reincarnations as the key to unlock the seal of this river of cause and effect."
Yun Yao and Chu Mochen exchanged a glance, a flicker of determination in their eyes. They knew this would be a difficult challenge, but in order to obtain the fragments of the divine nature and break the shackles of fate, they had no choice.
Following the gestures of the three goddesses of fate, a long, shimmering river appeared in the center of the altar. The water shone with a strange light, and each ripple seemed to carry a memory. Yun Yao took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and began to recall every detail of her and Chu Mochen's seventeen reincarnations.
In a modern laboratory, a sudden explosion pushed her life into an unknown abyss; when she first traveled to the palace, she faced the bullying and ridicule of the servants, but she stubbornly gritted her teeth and persevered; her first encounter with Chu Mochen, his cold yet tender eyes; in the countless life-and-death adventures in the world of cultivation, they supported each other and grew up together... Every memory shines in her mind like a precious gem.
Yun Yao slowly opened her eyes, tears glistening in them. She reached out, transforming these memories into a brilliant light, pouring it into the River of Cause and Effect. The river began to surge violently, the light growing ever brighter, as if illuminating the entire world.
Chu Mochen also closed his eyes, his mind replaying everything he had done to protect Yun Yao in every reincarnation. Whether as a mortal, a cultivator, or a divine monarch, he had only one conviction in his heart: to protect her. He gathered these memories into a powerful force and injected it into the River of Cause and Effect.
However, just as the River of Cause and Effect was about to be fully opened, something unexpected happened. A dark figure suddenly appeared from thin air, wielding a sinister sickle, and slashed directly at the River of Cause and Effect. Yun Yao and Chu Mochen cried out in surprise, trying to stop it, but it was too late.
The black figure laughed coldly and said, "How can you easily obtain the fragments of the godhead of the War Halberd God?" It turned out that he was a killer sent by the Chaos Demon Sect, and his purpose was to prevent them from obtaining the fragments of the godhead.
Under the scythe's attack, a massive crack appeared in the River of Causality, and the light of memory injected by Yun Yao and Chu Mochen began to rapidly dissipate. The situation became extremely critical. If the River of Causality could not be repaired in time, not only would the fragments of the divine nature be lost, but they would also be in great danger.
At this critical moment, Yun Yao suddenly remembered a sentence from the Hongmeng Fragment: "Where there is true love, even metal and stone can be broken." She turned to look at Chu Mochen, her eyes filled with determination and tenderness. "Chu Mochen, our love is the most powerful force in this world. It will definitely overcome everything."
Chu Mochen also looked at her, a smile on his face. "That's right, no matter what difficulties we encounter, we can overcome them together."
They both extended their hands simultaneously, interlocking their fingers. Twin Soul Fires blazed between them. A rainbow of light illuminated the entire altar, forming a stark contrast to the sinister aura of the black figure. Wherever the Twin Soul Fires touched, the black aura dissipated, and the crack began to heal.
Seeing this, the black figure's eyes flashed with fear. He increased the force of his attack, but no matter what, he could not withstand the power of the Twin Soul Flames. Finally, under the powerful attack of the Twin Soul Flames, the black figure let out a scream and turned into a puff of black smoke and disappeared.
The River of Cause and Effect finally opened completely, and the fragment of the divine power in the golden vortex slowly flew out and hovered in front of Yun Yao and Chu Mochen. The fragment of the divine power radiated a dazzling light, as if telling of its former glory.
Chu Mochen reached out and slowly grasped the fragment of the godhead. Instantly, a powerful force surged into his body, and his Candle Dragon bloodline fully awakened. Dragon scales covered his entire body, and twelve pairs of battle wings burning with wicked fire emerged from his back. However, just when everyone thought everything was going smoothly, Chu Mochen's eyes suddenly became empty, and the obsession of the War Halberd Divine Lord began to spread wildly in his consciousness.
"Chu Mochen!" Yun Yao shouted anxiously. She felt that Chu Mochen's aura was changing, becoming strange and powerful.
The three goddesses of fate frowned slightly as they watched this scene. "The War Halberd Lord's obsession is too deep. If he can't suppress it in time, he will lose himself forever."
Yun Yao gritted her teeth and, without the slightest hesitation, she forced her way into Chu Mochen's sea of consciousness. There, she saw the remnant soul of the War Halberd God devouring Chu Mochen's mortal memories, and Chu Mochen's consciousness was struggling.
"Zhan Ji, you've protected me for seventeen lifetimes. Now it's my turn to protect you," Yun Yao shouted. She summoned the Heaven-Defying Fate Disc, which transformed into fragments of memories spanning seventeen reincarnations. Each fragment reflected a heartwarming moment with Chu Mochen in her small world: Chu Mochen's clumsy look when they first grilled fish together; Chu Mochen being punished by the elders for stealing spiritual fruit for her, yet still smiling and telling her he had no regrets; the back of him holding an umbrella for her during a thunderstorm, only to be struck by lightning himself...
These fragments of memory were like warm rays of light, illuminating Chu Mochen's dark sea of consciousness. The remnant soul of the War Halberd God was slightly startled, as if touched by these memories.
"Chu Mochen is not your replacement. He is a new life that carries our shared hopes." Yun Yao continued, her voice filled with determination and tenderness. "Seventeen reincarnations have given us the opportunity to choose again. We cannot repeat the same mistakes."
The remnant soul of the War Halberd God remained silent for a long time before finally letting out a sigh of relief. His figure gradually became transparent, transforming into tiny dots of golden light that merged into Chu Mochen's soul. Chu Mochen's eyes gradually regained clarity, and when he opened them, they had regained the gentleness that belonged to a mortal.
"Yao'er, I seem to... remember everything." Chu Mochen said softly. He reached out and held Yun Yao's hand, his eyes full of love and gratitude.
Yun Yao looked at him, tears welling up in her eyes no longer able to be held back. "Great, you're finally back."
The three goddesses of fate watched this scene and nodded slightly. "You have passed the test, and the fragments of the godhead belong to you." After saying this, their figures gradually dissipated, leaving only Yun Yao and Chu Mochen on the altar, feeling each other's heartbeat and warmth.
The fragment of the divine power in Chu Mochen's hand was completely integrated into his body. He could feel his strength constantly increasing, but more importantly, he found himself and the most precious relationship between him and Yun Yao.
"Let's go, our journey continues." Yun Yao said with a smile, her eyes full of anticipation for the future.
Chu Mochen nodded and held her hand tightly. "No matter what difficulties lie ahead, we will face them together."
The two turned and walked out of the altar. Behind them, the long river of cause and effect gradually disappeared, leaving only a peaceful sky. And their story had just begun...
