When...
The tightly shut bronze coffin was slowly opened by Ji Mo.
There was no overwhelming pressure surging, no terrifying energy fluctuations, only a wisp of gentle light.
This wisp of light had no color, appearing ordinary, yet it caused Qi Hei's eyelids to twitch several times.
"Primordial Light!"
In Qi Hei's eyes, a look of apprehension appeared.
This was an object of world destruction, capable of annihilating all matter. If wielded properly, it could even heavily injure him.
This wisp of Primordial Light was a trump card left by Li Er for Ji Mo, capable of delivering a severe blow to Qi Hei at a critical moment, thus giving Ji Mo a chance to escape.
For Ji Mo, Old Man Li had truly gone to great lengths.
Qi Hei seemed to see through Ji Mo's intention at a glance, sneering, "Although the Primordial Light is unsolvable, it cannot kill me, and you will not escape. Heaven and earth are vast, but there is no place left for you to hide. Today, you are doomed to die."
No matter what, he would not let Ji Mo live. This brat was simply too defiant. If he were to cultivate for a few more decades, it would be uncertain who would die.
Ji Mo said calmly, "The Primordial Light may not kill you, but it can kill me."
As he spoke, he unexpectedly opened his mouth and directly swallowed this wisp of Primordial Light in one gulp.
Originally, this was indeed meant to deal with Qi Hei, but he had changed his mind.
Qi Hei was stunned, bewildered by Ji Mo's actions.
Did this guy want to die by committing suicide?
Ji Mo's face contorted in immense pain, and terrifying beams of light erupted from his body, his flesh and blood about to disintegrate into countless fragments.
Instantly.
The entire dark land was completely illuminated. Ji Mo seemed to ignite, becoming a ball of eternal light, its radiance billions of feet high, dispelling all darkness.
"You truly possess great courage. You intend to use the Primordial Light as a spark to ignite yourself, thereby obtaining the power of endless light. But can such power be controlled by a mere human? You are setting yourself ablaze; it will be but a fleeting brilliance."
Qi Hei stared intently at Ji Mo, who was on the verge of disintegration, his face filled with coldness.
His mortal body could not bear this power.
"Born from death, I am the light!"
Ji Mo roared to the heavens, unleashing peerless willpower, seeking to be reborn from the brink of death.
To destroy Qi Hei, one had to control the power of light. This was the only way.
In the Xuan Ling Realm, the Demon Realm, the Ghost Realm, statues of gods glowed, and the power of faith surged. In the Immortal Spirit Realm, Blue Star, and other places, countless beings chanted Ji Mo's name, clasping their hands in prayer.
This was Li Er's intervention, involving all beings with karma to Ji Mo, lending him support.
Endless wishes and prayers crossed time and space, entering the dark land, and like returning swallows, they madly poured into Ji Mo's body.
Empowered by the wishes of all beings, Ji Mo shimmered with radiance. His body stopped disintegrating, and he began to control the power of light.
"If evil is a magnificent and cruel symphony, its finale will be written by my own hand. Qi Hei, let's settle this."
Ji Mo was enveloped in blinding light, his fighting spirit soaring, possessing the supreme power to contend with Qi Hei.
"Darkness is omnipresent, my being is eternally unyielding. I will be the one who laughs last."
Qi Hei finally became serious, fully activating all sorts of supreme laws to confront Ji Mo.
Both fought with all their might, engaging in a fierce battle. The entire dark land began to collapse.
Ji Mo's hair flew, his eyes shone brightly like stars, and his delicate face was filled with resolute spirit. He manifested myriad techniques, his fist light illuminating the eternal night, shaking the entire sea of stars.
Qi Hei roared, closing his eyes. Boundless darkness enveloped the heavens, and the power he unleashed easily shattered stars. His every move was a world-ending technique.
The two clashed fiercely, flesh and blood splattering, their bodies exploding. Order shattered, and time turned to dust.
The dark land was completely pierced through, turning into a chaotic expanse.
Two figures, one black and one white, continuously collided. Their forms intertwined, and at the center of their impact, massive black holes formed one after another.
The sea of stars trembled, countless stars were blown apart, and meteor showers rained down everywhere. Blinding solar flares blinded the eyes of beings across all heavens and myriad worlds.
This battle lasted for a full month.
In the end, the depths of the universe transformed into a chaotic expanse, filled with black holes and temporal turbulence as far as the eye could see.
No one could clearly see the outcome of the battle, yet everyone knew the final result.
The endless darkness dissipated, and the evil power receded like a tide. Heaven and earth returned to clarity.
And those dark minions, butchers, and the like, all lost their primordial power. Their bodies melted under the sunlight, turning into wisps of smoke and ash.
"My Mo Bao..."
Li Er, immediately bringing the awakened Leng Bao Bao, rushed towards the end of the universe.
He carried the Tai Chi diagram on his back, frantically deducing and searching for Ji Mo's whereabouts, but found nothing.
Every trace related to Ji Mo had vanished. Even his presence in the past and future could not be calculated.
The two were unwilling and searched everywhere frantically.
Half a year later, a shattered bronze coffin slowly floated out from the sea of chaos.
"Mo Mo..."
Leng Bao Bao was overjoyed and guided the bronze coffin back.
With great hope, she opened the coffin lid. Inside were only fragments of the Chaos Bell and the Immortal Slaying Sword, along with a pink hair tie.
Leng Bao Bao tightly clutched the hair tie, tears streaming down her face.
Her Mo Mo had promised never to take off the hair tie, even in death, but now...
"I don't believe it, I don't believe it. You will definitely come back, come back alive..."
Leng Bao Bao's voice was hoarse as she called out Ji Mo's name in the starry sky again and again, like a cuckoo weeping blood.
...
Time flowed, and years passed like a shuttle.
Three years had passed in the blink of an eye.
At Spring Field Flower Orphanage, flowers bloomed, birds sang, and the Acacia tree was lush with foliage, adorned with bright red love peas.
"Mo Mo, do you know Wang Wei's 'Acacia'?"
Leng Bao Bao caressed the rough bark of the Acacia tree, her eyes distant, as if she could hear Ji Mo reciting poetry to her in her childhood.
In the small pond beneath the Acacia tree, the water sparkled. A crystal-clear lotus bud showed its tip.
Qing Lian had completely revived but refused to take human form.
A chubby three-year-old boy wearing open-crotch pants, with his little bottom sticking out, played with mud nearby. This was the Empty Void Great Immortal, who had become a naughty child.
Li Er held his whisk upside down, raising and lowering it, wanting to hit the unlucky child but unable to bring himself to do it.
Anubis lay on the ground, reminiscing about the past.
Sha Wu did not choose to grow up and remained a loli, gazing blankly at the sky.
Creak...
Suddenly.
The sound of a door opening was heard.
All eyes immediately turned towards it.
Leng Bao Bao gazed steadily at the figure that appeared, her lips curling into a sweet smile.
...
The end, thank you brothers and sisters.
