The power of this palm strike was so astonishing that even Chu Mo hadn't anticipated that the black aura drawn from Jiang En's body, condensing into the Demon King Dharma, would be so formidable. Its might even seemed to surpass the demon breeds he had seen before!

Something was not right!

Chu Mo thought to himself, but his actions were not slow at all as he directly chanted the Six Word Mantra.

"Om!"

A golden lotus flower emerged from Chu Mo's mouth and struck the huge hand of the Demon King.

Boom!

The great hand was directly blown open with a huge gap, but it continued to press down towards this side.

Above the sky, massive collapses kept occurring. This was the Heaven and Earth's laws unable to withstand such intense pressure, collapsing on their own!

Chu Mo unleashed another mantra.

"Ma!"

Another golden lotus flower flew out and struck the hand.

Bang!

The hand trembled slightly, a larger gap blown in it, but it still pressed down.

Infuriated, Chu Mo, before chanting the third mantra, directly invoked the Daoism Nine Word Mantra.

He initiated the bing character mnemonic!

Boom!

Vast essence energy from all over Heaven and Earth swarmed toward Chu Mo.

Chu Mo then activated the lie character mnemonic.

Distorting space, halting the river of time.

Then he invoked the xing character mnemonic—Heaven and Human Unity!

Only then did he directly recite the third Buddhist mantra, "Ne!"

Such a mad act, perhaps from ancient times to the present, had never been conducted before. Fusing the top-level holy arts of both Buddhism and Daoism directly together to launch an attack.

Even the great powers of both Buddhism and Daoism probably had never thought it could be done this way.

This mantra, with an unparalleled might, as if endowed with the grandeur of the Heavenly Dao, directly bombarded the huge hand.

The already somewhat incomplete hand instantly shattered, disintegrated, and was reduced to nothingness like a brittle branch in a gale.

Then, this vast energy did not cease, directly hitting the Demon King's Dharma.

Thunderous booms!

The Demon King Dharma was promptly blasted into fragments. In the moment before it dissipated, a final voice came, "What divine ability is this?"

Pfft!

Chu Mo spat out a mouthful of fresh blood and clutched the front of his robe, but his eyes were brighter than ever before.

It's possible like this!

Indeed it is!

It seemed as if Chu Mo had found a new path of combat for the future.

The higher the realm, the more ways to fight; ever-changing, a single thought could spawn countless outcomes.

But among those, truly effective ones turned out to be very few. What you are good at, the enemy is almost just as adept!

Everyone is a powerhouse, those conventional ways of fighting, those commonly seen divine abilities, actually can't really do much against the opponent. When the realms are equal, only by being unexpected, can one prevail.

Below, at the ancestral land of the Jiang Family, at this moment, Jiang En couldn't help spitting out a mouthful of blood too. But his blood was vital essence!

He had been gravely injured!

Chu Mo narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at Jiang En with a flash of concern in his eyes. He really didn't want anything untoward to happen to this kind and gracious old man.

Master Xu Du's recitation of scriptures had been very steady throughout.

Chu Mo turned to look at Master Xu Du, and the trace of fatigue on his face had also vanished.

Chu Mo raised his eyebrows and then turned his gaze back to Jiang En.

At this moment, countless descendants of the Jiang Family were kneeling in rows, facing in the direction of Jiang En, and all their faces bore a devout expression, hoping that Grand Master Jiang could survive this calamity.

At this time, everyone could see that Grand Master Jiang's condition was somewhat ominous. The black aura inside him seemed difficult to completely clear away.

The grand Buddhist chants, overwhelming Heaven and Earth, continued to resonate without cessation. The black aura within Grand Master Jiang's body kept bursting out.

Another day passed, and for two days and nights, the black aura on Jiang En persisted.

During this time, Chu Mo experienced three more battles.

Jiang En's body exuded black qi that continuously condensed into Demon King Dharma with spiritual intelligence, but fortunately, these manifestations were far less formidable than the previous one.

Chu Mo was filled with doubts. How exactly did that powerful Demon King Dharma come into being? It always gave him an eerily odd feeling.

Another day and night passed, adding up to a total of three days and three nights that Xu Du had spent here performing his transformative rituals!

What worried Chu Mo was that Xu Du's face no longer showed any signs of fatigue, and his spirit seemed to be getting stronger and stronger!

This was also very abnormal!

According to the state Xu Du was in when he first performed his transformative rituals at the Qin family, he should not have been able to endure for so long without showing any signs of fatigue. This was an extremely abnormal phenomenon.

As the sound of Xu Du's Buddhist chants continued to resonate, the Heaven and Earth had long been completely filled with golden lotuses. Every lotus emitted infinite power, purifying this Heaven and Earth. At the same time, the collapse of the void caused by the previous Demon King Dharma had almost returned to normal.

The entire expanse had become a golden world.

The last strand of black qi in Jiang En's body was finally extracted, followed by an astonishing scene. Jiang En's complexion rapidly turned ashen, and the blood energy in his body was swiftly deteriorating. His entire spirit instantly became extremely withered.

"Grand Master!"

"Grand Master Jiang!"

"Grand Master Jiang, what's wrong with you?"

Several high-ranking members of the Jiang Family, with tears in their eyes, practically crawled on their knees to the front of Grand Master Jiang En. Chu Mo was startled too and hurried over.

Jiang En's bodily functions were regressing at an alarming rate, and he appeared to be like an old man on the brink of turning to dust, about to expire.

Jiang En waved his hand, then seeing Chu Mo fly over, his face flushed with a tinge of red.

Everyone saw this and all had sorrowful faces.

This was the final radiance before death!

"Daoist Friend Chu... Thank you, thank you... and also Master Xu Du, for everything you have done for the Jiang Family, hehehe... *cough cough* The Jiang Family, after tens of thousands of years of good deeds, has not acted in vain, today... we have received, recompense." Grand Master Jiang's body was so weak that it was scarcely imaginable, he could not even move a bit.

Chu Mo glanced at World-Dominating Biao, who shook his head at him. The silent exchange between the two, witnessed by Grand Master Jiang, made him smile, "Daoist Friend Chu, there's no need... to put more effort, I understand my own condition. The Demon Clan's mark inside me... has already started transforming into... a Demon Seed. The previous one... was forcibly expelled by my burning of essence blood."

Chu Mo suddenly came to a realization; he finally understood why that Demon Qi formed into such a terrifying Demon King Dharma—it was a fully-formed Demon Seed!

Moreover, after being forced out of Grand Master Jiang's body and coupled with Xu Du's transformative rituals, it couldn't have survived long and had to burn all of its life force in that instant to unleash power even greater than a normal Demon Seed.

"Why put yourself through such trouble? Even if transformation was not possible, you could have sealed it!" Chu Mo sighed.

Like the Windwalker, who was directly sealed away—perhaps one day in the future, a way to deal with it might emerge.

Jiang En shook his head, "I just wanted to... make an... attempt, to pave a way for others like me..."

Speaking was already very difficult for the Grand Master, so Chu Mo took out an elixir and hung it above him to sustain his life. This time, the Grand Master did not refuse and swallowed it down, regaining a lot of spirit.

Chu Mo's eyes turned slightly red, and he felt a deep respect. He understood the intention behind Grand Master Jiang's actions. He wanted to blaze a trail for others like him; if he could be successfully transformed, then others in the future could be as well. If not, then... they should honestly wait for their seals.

This kind of sacrifice was truly noble, commanding nothing but respect.

"It's a pity, it's still a failure." Grand Master Jiang smiled, "But it's okay, everyone dies eventually. As long as one dies a worthy death, it's not in vain."

"Grand Master!"

"Grand Master Jiang."

A group of the Jiang Family's high-ranking members, also elderly, couldn't help but burst into tears.

"Don't cry, don't cry. You are all old men of thousands or tens of thousands of years old. What's there to cry about? Are you children who have not seen the world? Remember, maintain our family customs and traditions, continue to do good deeds." After speaking, Grand Master Jiang En smiled slightly at Chu Mo, then contentedly closed his eyes.

He had passed away.

Chu Mo's heart was filled with sorrow. Although he did not have a very deep connection with this elder of the Jiang Family, he was deeply moved by his moral integrity. Here was a truly good person, an undeniably good person. One might mock his naivety, but one had to respect his character.

"Grand Master Jiang was a man of high moral integrity, a role model for us juniors." Chu Mo gave Grand Master Jiang a deep bow.

"Amitabha." Master Xu Du came over, brought his hands together, and then chanted softly, sending off Grand Master Jiang.

World-Dominating Biao and Bian Kaiyu also silently paid their respects.

During these three days and nights, they had witnessed many things. They finally understood what Chu Mo was doing. Their respect for Chu Mo deepened even further.

Chu Mo did not wish to stay in this atmosphere of mourning; he declined the Jiang Family's people's request to stay and deactivated the Jiang Family's arrays.

In the mortal world, there's a legend of the nine lifetimes of a good person. But that's ultimately just a legend, because no one can see reincarnation.

However, the Jiang Family's tens of thousands of years of benevolent deeds were witnessed by everyone. How could it just be nine lifetimes? Ninety, or even nine hundred lifetimes, might not even be an overstatement!

Such a family, even if not protected by Heaven, must be protected by humanity.

Thus, even though Chu Mo did not say anything directly, he had silently made a decision in his heart: to do everything within his power to protect a family like the Jiang Family. To prevent them from encountering disaster. Because such a family was the hope of the Heavenly Realm in the future.

Throughout it all, Xu Du watched with a peaceful expression, silently reciting sutras.

After leaving the Jiang Family, Xu Du asked Chu Mo, "Where shall we go now?"

Chu Mo stopped in his tracks, looked at Xu Du, and asked, "You?"

With a smile on his face, Xu Du looked like a Buddha, "I am well."
