Chapter 597 Letter from the Starry Sky
Chapter 597 Letter from the Starry Sky
In the vast and boundless starry sky of the symbiotic universe, which is like a dreamy tapestry, Yun Yao and Chu Mochen have just finished a thrilling adventure and returned triumphantly from the mechanical cultivation world. At this moment, they are at the transit station of the universe, a circular fortress built of ancient and mysterious spiritual crystals, emitting a soft and deep light, like a bright pearl suspended in the darkness, witnessing the footprints of countless travelers shuttling between various worlds.
Yun Yao was wearing a moon-white robe, the corners of which fluttered gently in the wind. On the robe, the faintly visible code lines flickered, just like the stars flowing through the Milky Way, highlighting her unique identity as the son of the God of Creation. Her long hair was scattered behind her like ink, and she was casually tied up with a jade hairpin. A few strands of hair playfully fell beside her fair cheeks, adding a bit of gentleness to her cold face. Her eyes seemed to hide endless mysteries of the universe, sometimes deep as the abyss, sometimes smart and flickering. At this moment, she was slightly looking up, staring at the constantly changing star map above the transfer station, as if thinking about something.
Chu Mochen stood quietly beside her, his posture as straight as a pine tree, and his dark suit made him look even more cold and resolute. On the suit, the Wujie sword pattern and the quantum sword pattern embroidered with gold thread complement each other, as if telling the legendary story of their journey. His face seemed as deep as if it was carved by a knife and an axe, his sword-like eyebrows flew into his temples, his eyes were deep and blazing, like a cold star in the dark night, always following Yun Yao's figure. The Wujie sword hanging at his waist had an ancient hilt and a cold and sharp sword body, faintly emitting a sword aura that blended with his breath, as if he was ready at any time, ready to cut off all thorns for Yun Yao.
Suddenly, Yun Yao's spiritual network terminal emitted a slight buzzing sound, breaking the silence. The sound seemed to be a mysterious call from a distant star, instantly attracting the attention of the two. Yun Yao was slightly startled, and then a flash of surprise and expectation flashed in her eyes. She quickly raised her hand and lightly tapped the spiritual network terminal on her wrist that was emitting blue light. A light curtain slowly unfolded, and a spiritual network email from Earth came into view.
The email was signed by her long-missed mother. Seeing this name, Yun Yao's heart trembled, her eyes moistened instantly, and countless memories flooded into her mind like a tide. Since she traveled to the world of cultivation, she has experienced countless hardships and obstacles. During the days when she was separated from her mother, her longing for her was like a wildly growing vine, tightly entwining her heart. Now, this email from across the stars is like a warm dawn, penetrating the heavy fog and illuminating the softest corner of her heart.
She couldn't wait to read the content of the email: "Xiaoyao, Mommy discovered energy fluctuations in the antimatter universe that are suspected to be your father's. If Chu Mochen's sword can resonate with the spiritual root of creation, perhaps--" However, just when she was full of excitement and wanted to know the subsequent key information, the email was suddenly cut off as if by an invisible hand, and it came to an abrupt end. Only the attached star map coordinates were left on the light curtain, flashing a cold light, like a mysterious puzzle, waiting for them to solve.
Yun Yao's hands trembled slightly, her eyes were full of disappointment and anxiety. She repeatedly refreshed the email page, trying to make the interrupted text reappear, but it was all in vain. She turned to look at Chu Mochen, her voice choking with sobs: "Mother... must have encountered some kind of accident, so she couldn't finish her words. But how can this clue, which was hard to come by, be cut off..."
A trace of heartache flashed in Chu Mochen's eyes. He gently held Yun Yao's hand, pulled her into his arms, rubbed her head with his chin, and said softly: "Don't be afraid, Xiaoyao. No matter how many difficulties and obstacles there are ahead, I will accompany you to face them together. Now that we have the coordinates of the star map, we must go in even if it is a dangerous place. Maybe uncle is waiting for us at the end of the antimatter universe."
Yun Yao leaned on his warm and solid chest, listening to his steady and strong heartbeat, and the panic in her heart gradually subsided. She took a deep breath, raised her head, and her eyes rekindled a determined light, like the brightest star in the night sky: "You are right, Chu Lang. This is our only hope to find our father, and we must not give up easily. No matter what kind of danger is hidden there, as long as we work together, nothing can stop us."
The two of them were in tune with each other, and without hesitation, they quickly packed their bags and prepared to head towards the antimatter universe. Yun Yao raised her hand and gently stroked her chest, feeling the vigorous and warm power of the Creation Spiritual Root, as if she was communicating with an old and close friend. She silently mobilized the power of the spiritual root and slowly injected it into the spiritual network terminal. With the help of the spiritual root's keen perception of the energy of the universe, she deeply analyzed the coordinates of the star map and tried to find the safest and fastest route.
At the same time, Chu Mochen concentrated on holding the Wujie Sword, closed his eyes, and immersed his consciousness into the sword. The Wujie Sword seemed to sense the master's determination and trembled slightly. The runes on the sword body shone, echoing with his spiritual power, constantly deducing the various dangers that might be encountered after entering the antimatter universe, and simulating countermeasures.
During this short and intense preparation process, the atmosphere in the transfer station seemed to freeze, with only the slight sound of Yun Yao's fingertips sliding on the spiritual network terminal and the subtle humming of the runes on Chu Mochen's sword flashing. The entire universe seemed to be holding its breath, watching the unknown journey that the couple was about to embark on.
Finally, everything was ready. Yun Yao and Chu Mochen looked at each other, and the determination and love in each other's eyes seemed to be materialized light, intertwined together. They took steps hand in hand and walked towards the interstellar portal leading to the antimatter universe at the edge of the transfer station.
As they gradually approached the portal, a powerful and mysterious energy wave rushed towards them, like an invisible wave, trying to push them out. The space around the portal was rippling, and the light was flickering, like a giant beast's open mouth, leading to an endless abyss.
Yun Yao frowned slightly, and without hesitation, she raised the power of the Creation Spiritual Root to the extreme. A layer of brilliant light bloomed from her body, like a sacred shield, resisting the impact of energy fluctuations. She turned her head to look at Chu Mochen, and saw that he had a grim expression, and the Wujie Sword had been unsheathed. The sword body was flashing with cold light, and the sword energy was crisscrossed, slicing the surging energy one by one.
The two cooperated with each other and moved towards the core of the portal step by step. With each step forward, the pressure increased. The energy that seemed to be materialized squeezed their bodies, and their bones seemed to groan under the heavy load. But their eyes never wavered, and they had only one belief in their hearts: to find their father and protect the symbiotic universe.
Just as they were about to step into the portal, a dark shadow flashed out from the darkness like a ghost and blocked their way. Yun Yao and Chu Mochen were instantly alert and took a closer look. The person who came was actually the leader of the Fallen Cult.
He was wearing a black robe, which seemed like an endless dark abyss, swallowing up the light around him. His face was hidden in the shadows, and his features could not be seen clearly. Only his eyes flashed a strange and crazy red light, like a burning fire, revealing a bone-chilling coldness and endless greed. In his hands, he held twelve seeds of heaven. Those seeds seemed to have life, emitting a dark light. The lines on the surface were the marks of Yun Yao and Chu Mochen in various reincarnations, like a curse of fate, which was creepy.
"Want to find your father? Humph, not that easy!" The leader of the Fallen Cult snorted coldly. His voice seemed to come from the Netherworld, icy and piercing, with a strong sense of ridicule and murderous intent. "This symbiotic universe you created is nothing but a fragile bubble, and it is completely vulnerable. The true way of heaven always belongs to devouring. Only I can dominate this endless universe!"
Yun Yao's eyes turned cold, and a quantum sword instantly appeared in her hand. Codes surged on the sword, like a nimble snake, emitting a sharp sword aura: "You are a madman who wants to go against the will of heaven! The symbiotic universe is the hope of all life, how can you trample on it wantonly. Today is the day of your destruction!"
Chu Mochen flashed and arrived in front of Yun Yao. He held the Wujie Sword horizontally, and the sword force was like a rainbow, echoing with Yun Yao's quantum sword, forming an indestructible sword formation: "No point in talking any more, prepare to die!"
The leader of the Fallen Angel Cult let out a crazy laugh, the laughter seemed to shatter the void, echoing throughout the entire transfer station: "Just you? You overestimate your abilities! Watch how I will completely shatter your hopes today!" After saying that, the Heavenly Dao Seed in his hand shone brightly, as if opening the door to hell, and endless dark energy surged out, sweeping towards Yun Yao and Chu Mochen.
Yun Yao and Chu Mochen were not afraid at all. They were in tune with each other and used all their skills at the same time. Yun Yao combined the power of the Creation Spirit Root with the Quantum Sword. The sword came out like a dragon. Each sword energy seemed to contain a small data world. The code and spiritual power were intertwined, launching a fierce attack on the dark energy. Chu Mochen relied on the peerless sword intention of the Undisaster Sword Cultivator. The sword moved with him, and the man and the sword became one. Each sword seemed to be able to cut through the sky, sever the cause and effect, and smash the surging dark energy one by one.
The transfer station instantly turned into an energy battlefield, with flashing lights and explosions. Yun Yao and Chu Mochen shuttled through the light and smoke, like a pair of war gods, fighting a desperate battle with the leader of the Fallen Cult.
However, the strength of the Fallen Cult leader was beyond imagination. The Heavenly Dao Seed in his hand was like an endless source of energy, continuously providing him with dark power. As the battle continued, Yun Yao and Chu Mochen gradually felt the pressure doubled, and their breathing became rapid.
But their eyes never flinched, but became more determined. Yun Yao thought to herself, "I can't go on like this. I must find his weakness and defeat him in one fell swoop." She quietly mobilized her Creation Spirit Root, trying to sense the core weakness of the Fallen Cult's leader's power.
At this moment, she suddenly discovered that when the leader of the Fallen Cult released dark energy, a faint light flashed on his chest, as if something key was hidden. Yun Yao's eyes lit up, and she instantly looked at Chu Mochen, and the two understood each other.
"Chu Lang, attack his chest!" Yun Yao shouted, and the quantum sword glowed brightly, stabbing towards the chest of the Fallen Angel's leader first.
Upon hearing this, Chu Mochen followed closely with the Wujie Sword. The sword was as powerful as thunder and carried an unstoppable momentum, forming a pincer attack with Yun Yao's Quantum Sword.
The leader of the Fallen Cult sensed the danger and his face changed drastically. He wanted to dodge but it was too late. He frantically mobilized dark energy to try to resist the attacks of the two.
However, it was too late. Yun Yao and Chu Mochen's swords were like two meteors, instantly penetrating his defenses and piercing his chest.
"Ah—" The Fallen Angel Patriarch let out a scream, and his body flew backwards like a kite with a broken string, hitting the wall of the transfer station heavily, creating a huge deep pit.
The light of the Heavenly Dao Seed in his hand dimmed instantly, as if it had lost its vitality. Yun Yao and Chu Mochen took advantage of the victory and quickly came in front of him, with the Quantum Sword and the Unbreakable Sword crossed on his neck.
"Today is the day you die!" Yun Yao's eyes were cold, as if she came from the god of death in the underworld. The quantum sword in her hand trembled slightly. Just a slight movement could take his life.
The face of the Fallen Cult leader was as pale as paper, and the madness in his eyes gradually faded, replaced by endless fear and despair. He looked at Yun Yao and Chu Mochen, his lips trembling, wanting to say something, but in the end he just let out a weak sigh.
"Hmph, I can't let you live!" Chu Mochen snorted coldly, and raised the Wujie Sword in his hand slightly, preparing to give him the final blow.
At this moment, Yun Yao suddenly reached out to stop Chu Mochen: "Wait, Chu Lang." She looked down at the leader of the Fallen Cult, with a complicated look in her eyes, "Let me ask you, why are you so obsessed with devouring the Heavenly Dao? You are also a cultivator, don't you know the consequences of going against the Heavenly Dao?"
The leader of the Fallen Cult smiled miserably, his voice was like a candle in the wind: "I... I just wanted to revive my wife... She died in a disaster. I heard that the Devouring Heaven Dao can control life and death, so I embarked on this road of no return... Now, it's too late for me to regret..."
Yun Yao frowned slightly, a trace of pity in her heart. She turned to look at Chu Mochen, and saw a touch of emotion flashing in his eyes. The two looked at each other and had already made a decision in their hearts.
"Forget it, I will spare your life today." Yun Yao put away the quantum sword and said softly, "I hope you can reform and stop being stubborn. If I find out that you are causing trouble to the universe again, I will not let you go easily!"
When the leader of the Fallen Cult heard this, a trace of gratitude and astonishment flashed in his eyes. He struggled to stand up and bowed deeply to Yun Yao and Chu Mochen: "Thank you for not killing me... I will definitely remember the lesson today..." After saying this, his figure flashed and turned into a stream of light, disappearing into the vast universe.
Yun Yao and Chu Mochen looked at the direction he left in silence for a long time. They knew that although the experience of the leader of the Fallen Cult was an isolated case, there were many people in the universe who were lost because of obsession like him. Only by protecting the symbiotic universe and allowing all lives to have hope and choice can more tragedies be avoided.
"Let's go, Chu Lang. We still have to go find our father." Yun Yao gently held Chu Mochen's hand, and the determined light in her eyes rekindled.
"Well, no matter what the road ahead holds, I will walk with you." Chu Mochen held her hand tightly and responded gently.
The two turned around, without hesitation, and stepped into the portal to the antimatter universe. With a flash of strong light, their figures disappeared on the spot, leaving only a gradually dissipating energy ripple, as if telling the thrilling story they had just experienced. And in the depths of the distant antimatter universe, unknown challenges and hopes are waiting for them to explore and pursue...
