Chapter 1168: Chapter 702: Golden Marrow_2

His Taoist Heart, growing ever more resolute.

His Divine Sense, also growing stronger by the moment.

The formidable Second Grade River God, with extremely powerful Divine Thoughts, although it has fallen into depravity, most of which are Evil Thoughts, after being refined and purified, the remnants of pure Divine Thoughts are still quite considerable.

Just like that, time passed unknowingly, the river of Evil Thoughts slowly got burnt out, streams of Divine Thought smoke were also devoured bit by bit.

All sorts of evil desires surged from the depths of his heart, but were suppressed by Mo Hua with a steadfast Taoist Heart.

A whole Second Grade fish-headed River God, was thus “eaten” clean by Mo Hua.

Mo Hua ate a bit too much.

And with the nourishment of an entire River God, his Divine Sense took yet another giant stride forward.

The Realm of Seventeen Patterns Divine Sense, which previously seemed a Heavenly Chasm away, now appeared almost within reach.

But even after “eating” so much, the barrier between Sixteen Patterns and Seventeen Patterns still remained, and ultimately he couldn’t cross over.

Mo Hua sighed, feeling helpless in his heart.

The upgrade of Divine Sense from Sixteen Patterns to Seventeen Patterns, from the Foundation Building Middle Stage to the Foundation Building Late Stage, seems separated by only one pattern, but this one pattern is truly like a chasm.

If one doesn’t rely on raising their Realm to drive the growth of Divine Sense, but instead finds their own way,

To refine and strengthen Divine Sense bit by bit, to devour one Evil Spirit after another, Water Drops Stone Wear style, to gradually enhance Divine Sense, in order to break through the bottleneck, it’s truly as difficult as ascending to the heavens.

Fortunately, now there’s only a little bit left.

But then Mo Hua thought again, it may look like “just a little bit,” but who knows how many thresholds are hidden within this little bit.

“Take it slow, it should be soon…”

Mo Hua exhaled, subduing his impatient emotions, gradually calming his state of mind.

Now that he was full, and even a bit overstuffed, he thought about digesting his meal first, consolidating his gains before exiting the Sea of Consciousness.

Within the Sea of Consciousness, Mo Hua was focused and meditated with closed eyes, visualizing his own body.

While digesting Divine Thoughts, he also completely consolidated his Taoist Heart.

As time trickled away, unbeknownst to Mo Hua, engrossed in meditation, a vast expanse of shadow suddenly emerged behind him.

This shadow, black with a trace of blood-red, emitted a terrifying aura, yet was silent.

Mo Hua, seated in meditation, was entirely unguarded.

The shadow spread out from behind Mo Hua’s diminutive figure, growing larger, and materializing into a huge Evil shadow.

The shadow was like a swamp of sin, enveloped by dark water, out of which slowly emerged a large-mouthed, hideous horned Demon Creature.

The Demon Creature slowly opened its gaping maw, and noiselessly swallowed towards Mo Hua ahead of it.

The fierce gaping mouth completely enveloped Mo Hua’s small figure.

Just as it was about to swallow Mo Hua, suddenly a figure flashed in front, and Mo Hua disappeared.

The creature was stunned for a moment, its two hideous eyes focusing upwards, only to see a child standing on top of its head at some point.

The child lay on top of it, hanging upside down, staring into its large eyes, complaining somewhat:

“Why have you only come out now? I’ve been waiting for you for a long time.”

The creature’s pupils shrank drastically, violently shaking its head, trying to shake Mo Hua off.

Mo Hua clutched one of the creature’s horns with one hand, sticking to its head like chewing gum.

Meanwhile, in Mo Hua’s right hand, a grasp conjured from nothing.

A boundless golden sharpness gathered in his hand, condensing into an ancient yet terrifying pale golden Sword of Divine Thought.

Seeing this, the creature’s pupils nearly popped out, struggling even more violently.

But the large-bodied creature couldn’t shake off Mo Hua at all.

Mo Hua was no-nonsense, thrusting cleanly, a streak of pale golden light turned into a fine line, piercing directly into the creature’s brow.

Upon the tiny Golden Sword, several rays of Golden Light bloomed, piercing straight through the creature’s head.

Sword Transformation, extremely sharp.

The creature struggled, howling in pain, its claws tearing towards Mo Hua.

Mo Hua bounced around on its head, his body light and fluid like water, snatching every move, and then with a reverse swing of his sword, he stabbed into the top of its head.

The sharp Golden Light poured down, the sword’s brilliance unfolded, irresistible, grinding the internal flesh made from the creature’s Evil Thoughts.

The creature howled in fear and anger, its injuries worsened, and its movements slowed down.

Seize the opportunity when it’s ill, take its life!

Mo Hua stabbed “swish, swish” with a few more strikes, his Sword Qi of Divine Thought rampant, slicing in every direction, cutting a big-headed Evil Thought Monster to pieces, eventually turning it into a pool of black water, collapsing on the ground, lifeless.

Inside the Sea of Consciousness, it temporarily calmed down.

Mo Hua landed lightly on the ground, pointing at the black water on the floor with the golden sword, “Come out, I know you’re not dead.”

The black water trembled, and then slowly a shadow emerged from within.

The entire shadow, condensed from the filthy black water, transformed into a pitch-black Water Demon, looking a bit similar to the River God, also with a fish-headed human body.

Yet it had horns on its head; atop the fish head, its teeth protruded outwards, and the fangs were curled, resembling… a mouth of a sheep?

Mo Hua frowned and then realized suddenly.

This seems to be the remains of the Great Wilderness Evil God.

But this set of Divine Remains seemed a bit different, as if it had parasitized the River God, gradually assimilating with it, hence it tended more towards… an Evil God?

The black water River God coldly eyed Mo Hua, its gaze wary.

Its voice, like the River God’s, carried a Water Demon’s strange undertone, but was thicker and more somber.

“Lad, when did you notice me?”

Mo Hua sneered in his heart.

This trip to the fishing village, I was actually after you from the start.

Moreover, when deducing the cause and effect, I saw you lurking in the shade, ambushing the Sword Cultivator Elder of my Taixu Gate, how could I not know your little scheme.
