Who would he sever?

The Ghost Shadow was a manifestation of emotions, neither a real person nor an Illusion.

It was formed by the condensation of the Seven Emotions Divine Skill.

At this moment, I wonder, if these forms are condensed from my own emotions... then, other than Mo Xilan, could the others sense it?

Theoretically, although the Tribulation Fate Pendant concealed my romantic connections, it only concealed them; it didn't make them vanish. Since our romantic connections still exist, if I sever my emotions, could the others perceive it at that instant, given their cultivation levels?

Wang Mu moved his lips slightly, his mind falling into a strange state.

After experiencing the transformations from Seven Emotions cultivation, he indeed felt his emotions had grown incredibly faint.

He was but a step away from forming the Seven Emotions Sword Heart.

He needed to sever a piece of emotion to complete the final condensation.

If I were to sever any of them... and if they found out... would they come and try to kill me?

As this thought crossed his mind, Wang Mu did not fear, yet he hesitated slightly.

Without fear among the Seven Emotions, naturally, there is no fear. But why the hesitation... Perhaps it's an innate life instinct to avoid death...

Wang Mu knew Mo Xilan was being very calculating by doing this.

In the game, to cultivate the complete version of the Seven Emotions Divine Skill, the two individuals cultivating it must develop feelings for each other. Therefore, no matter whom he severed, as long as he maintained an emotional connection with her, even Mo Xilan's modified Seven Emotions Divine Skill would become more formidable. However, he would likely only develop feelings for her alone.

It's as if she helped me forge the Seven Emotions Sword Heart, but also completely obtained me.

Indeed, worthy of the cunning one might expect from the Ascension Realm.

Wang Mu fell silent.

"Brother Dongfang, make a decision quickly?" Mo Xilan's image urged sweetly.

「Meanwhile, in the Fengyue Sect.」

In a quiet chamber, two fluctuating auras enveloped a hazy figure. Suddenly, a pair of naturally enchanting eyes slowly opened. Seemingly aware of something, she sneered, "Mo Xilan... you really are something..."

She lifted her hand, as if wanting to intervene, but then she let it fall again.

It seems I'm also a bit curious... whom will that person choose to sever his feelings for to forge his Sword Heart...

「Shangxiao Sword Sect, a certain cave abode.」

Clean Energy gathered in the void. A graceful figure, wreathed in sword light, stood motionless.

The Qingshuang Divine Sword emitted a low hum, as if to convey something.

"Hmm... he... will make his own choice," uttered the figure without opening her eyes.

The Qingshuang Divine Sword's humming ceased, and it grew still, yet it continued to emit trembling sounds.

After all, who was more important in his heart?

Wang Mu didn't want to be cut down. He knew that no matter whom he chose to sever ties with, he would likely be attacked by the others once he got out. And that wasn't even counting those who hadn't appeared yet.

Faced with such a choice, Wang Mu drew a Chiyun Flying Sword, took a deep breath, made a sword-art hand seal, ascended into the air, and then fiercely struck downward.

With one sword strike, he aimed at himself.

If I have to sever emotions first, then I'll strike myself first!

Either way, I'm going to be cut down. I might as well strike myself first, so you all don't get the chance to cut me down!

And I can test if this place is real or fake at the same time...

The Flying Sword descended.

Wang Mu closed his eyes, recalling the several years since he'd transmigrated. They weren't particularly spectacular; his only regret was from the Foundation Establishment Realm...

Indeed, a second round of Immortal Hero cultivation is much harder than martial hero cultivation.

"Don't!"

The Flying Sword hadn't yet landed when Mo Xilan cried out in alarm, apparently not expecting Wang Mu to act so decisively.

The next second.

CLANG!

A crisp sound rang out; the Flying Sword hadn't fallen, as if blocked by something.

Wang Mu opened his eyes, only to see a mysterious light shielding him.

A Token floated above his head, emitting a mysterious barrier that protected him.

This is... the Token given by Yan Qingwu...

Wang Mu fell silent.

I'd only used this Token back at the Sword Sect and at no other time.

I never expected it to be the thing that saved my life at such a crucial moment?

Really? It won't even let me strike myself?

"Brother Dongfang, how could you do this?" Mo Xilan's image said softly. "Why would you rather strike yourself than sever any of your emotional ties?"

Wang Mu remained silent.

I just don't want to be cut down by any of you.

"It's a pity..." The light blue image pursed her lips and smiled slightly. "That won't do, you know. If you want to leave, you must sever a piece of emotion to condense the Sword Heart and depart Seven Emotions Island."

Hearing this, Wang Mu's expression grew grave.

His eyes gradually changed.

The Token slowly descended.

Wang Mu waved his hand, and in an instant, several Chiyun Flying Swords hovered in the air before him.

"Since it's like that..." Wang Mu's eyes turned icy. "Then I'll sever them all!"

Worst case, I die, so what? If I don't, I'll live for ages! What's there to fear? Severing one means I'll be cut down anyway, so I might as well sever them all!

His declaration hung in the air for a moment. Then, the Chiyun Flying Swords shot towards those images with the speed of lightning, too fast for the eye to follow.

In that instant, a look of clear astonishment appeared in the eyes of the light blue image.

Not only her, but the eyes of the other images also showed subtle changes.

BOOM!

The images were annihilated.

At this moment, the Seven Emotions Sword Heart in Wang Mu's Sea of Consciousness fully formed, radiating a dazzling divine light and emitting immense Divine Power!

Several emotional forms vanished instantly. In the unseen depths of his being, Wang Mu felt as though something within his heart had diminished, yet it also seemed he had gained something new.
