Chapter 1969: Chapter 958: Apocalypse Great Mill (Part 3)
In the notes of Ancestor Yun Ya, it was recorded that the star core of the Earth Element Star had long been entrusted with a strand of the Demon Lord’s demonic thought.
He had a promising future ahead and there was no need to take such a risk.
Just as Chen Mobai was about to end his state of perception and withdraw, a strand of silver-black light suddenly spread from the star core, instantly enveloping him.
Caught by surprise, Chen Mobai was too late to escape, and his entire person entered a mysterious illusory space.
This was a silver-black cosmic void, with a white-grey grinding disc floating at the center of the universe, rotating slowly.
Each time this grinding disc turned, a star river was annihilated, turning into dust within the universe.
The Apocalypse Great Mill!
In Chen Mobai’s mind, the name of this grinding disc emerged directly.
A symbol of the end of destiny, the destruction of all living beings, an innate treasure!
It was also the true body of the Demon Lord.
Chen Mobai’s gaze fell on this grinding disc, and these pieces of information appeared suddenly without him knowing when, as if anyone who saw it would understand instantly.
The turning of the Apocalypse Great Mill seemed extremely difficult, and every small change could cause shockwaves in the cosmic void.
Creaaak!
Chen Mobai soon saw the reason why: there were chains as black as ink extending from all parts of the cosmic void, restraining and binding the Apocalypse Great Mill, preventing it from operating.
Yet, even so, this innate treasure representing destruction refused to cease its movements.
One day, when the Apocalypse Great Mill completes a full rotation, it will be the time of cosmic destruction.
Is this the truth about the Demon Lord’s suppression?
As Chen Mobai thought about this, a thread of understanding emerged in his heart.
However, conflicts of such existence were still too distant for him.
Chen Mobai only pondered how to leave this place.
Why did the Immortal Earth Spiritual Root perception lead him here?
Could it be that Lin Daoming saw this scene back then as well?
The demonic thought within the Earth Element Star Core, it seems the best course would be to find a way to purify it completely as soon as possible.
Chen Mobai felt that with the current level of the Immortal Gate, they were not equipped to deal with such matters. He thought that once he attained Divinity Transformation, it would be better to end the wars definitively.
As time passed, he had already been in this illusory space for a long time.
He wandered around, finding no way to leave.
Helplessly, he could only continue watching the Apocalypse Great Mill at the universe’s center and those dark chains.
The great mill hovered silently in front of him, exuding a pressure that made his heart palpitate.
The vast and destructive waves intensified the burden on Chen Mobai’s strand of heart and mind.
As time went on, he could see the appearance of this Apocalypse Great Mill: it seemed to be perfectly round, but in reality, it was formed in a nearly circular shape by cutting.
There were a total of three thousand faces, each seemingly containing a kind of supreme demonic path, with bizarre characters and patterns. Some were clear, others were vague and indistinct.
Chen Mobai counted seventy-two faces of the Apocalypse Great Mill that could be made out clearly.
He wanted to remember the indecipherable characters and patterns, but realized that even using the Guidance Book, he couldn’t leave any impression of them in his mind, as if water droplets falling on sand, vanishing instantly.
Who knows how much time passed before a faint bell rang softly by Chen Mobai’s ear, waking him from the Great Dao of Destruction of the Apocalypse Great Mill.
A door illuminated, and he instantly vanished from this illusory space.
In the cultivation room of Wangwu Cave Heaven, atop Chen Mobai’s head, the Nascent Soul opened its eyes, while beside it, the Second Nascent Soul was holding a bronze bell, striking it with all its might!
It was indeed the morning bell of this Lifespan Artifact that awakened him from this bizarre state of perception.
“Thank you!”
Chen Mobai nodded to his Second Nascent Soul, which shook its head slightly, appearing tired, and then transformed into the form of Primordial Yang Treasure Beads.
Upon checking the time, this period of perception had astonishingly lasted three months. No wonder the deeply rooted Second Nascent Soul was fatigued. After all, no matter it being his Lifespan Artifact, continuously ringing a bell for three months would cause severe damage to vital energy.
Chen Mobai reached out to absorb the Primordial Yang Treasure Beads and the Morning Bell into his body, followed by the Nascent Soul.
He inspected his spiritual root, and sure enough.
The Earth Spirit Root had already reached 100.
This was indeed an Immortal Spirit Root perception.
Thinking about it, a slight worry appeared between Chen Mobai’s brows.
If the scenes witnessed during the perception were true, then that would mean that in this universe, were the Demon Lord to emerge, it would signal the apocalypse.
Once the world ends, even if he hid near the Earth Element Star, he would be shattered into dust in an instant.
The last time the Demon Lord emerged, it was suppressed by the Purple Cloud Galaxy.
Who knows if there will be a next time.
Why didn’t the Purple Sky Daoist Venerable figure out a way to deal with the Demon Lord before ascending to the other shore?
Chen Mobai, having grown up under the education of the Immortal Gate, leaned towards the lawful-good alignment.
Knowing about the Apocalypse Great Mill left his heart heavily burdened.
He regretted his cultivation level being too shallow. If he had the Force of Creation of the Purple Sky Daoist Venerable, he would certainly not have left such a mess for the later generations.
With this in mind, Chen Mobai started to worry about Bai Guang who had left the Immortal Gate.
Once the Demon Lord emerges, the first to suffer would definitely be the Central Dojo.
He feared that Yu Baiguang and the Spiritual Venerable, who had managed with great difficulty to reach there using the Dragon God Star, might run into the demonic calamity.
Though he didn’t acknowledge Yu Baiguang as Xiao Hei’s mother, nor as his wife, given that she was the founder of their Weapon Dancing Sect, Chen Mobai still hoped she could smoothly reach the Central Dojo and advance her cultivation level even further.
