“All… dead?”

From birth, holding a position above others, raised in luxury as a young master, this was the first time he felt the cold air seeping from his bones.

How could they die?

How did they die?

And exactly who killed them?

What ‘thing’ was in the Refining Demon Diagram?

The great hall was empty, with no one present. The soul lamps were all extinguished, only a pale white smoky gas curled upwards, with no one else to answer.

Just at this moment, in front of Jin Yixuan’s soul lamp, a red light suddenly emitted, a point of evil and strange firelight swaying and rising.

Jin Yixuan’s dead body also twisted in convulsions, after which he lifted his head and slowly opened his eyes.

His pupils were only whites, full of blood threads.

And on his shoulder, another attached red ‘blood shadow’ appeared—Mr. Tu.

The young master’s expression was grave, and he asked in a cold voice:

“Mr., what exactly happened?”

Attached to Jin Yixuan, ‘Mr. Tu’s’ eyes streamed bloody tears, his voice old and filled with fear:

“The one who invaded the Ten Thousand Demon Valley… is a ‘fierce god’.”

The young master’s expression was slightly pale, “Fierce god?”

‘Mr. Tu’ said: “I didn’t enter the diagram, I didn’t see it personally, but through the tiny fragment of divine thought backtracking before this body died, I perceived a trace of… ‘divine’ aura!”

“This trace of divine aura is very strange, like a god, also like a person, and profoundly terrifying.”

“Divinity and humanity repel each other. A half-human, half-god being must enter the evil path; it is a powerful and fierce entity existing in divine thought.”

“In the Qian Xue State boundary, I cannot borrow the Great Wilderness Lord’s divine might.”

“I also only have a wisp of remnant soul here, and all kinds of means cannot be displayed. I cannot contend with this kind of ‘fierce god’.”

The young master, with pride in his heart, frowned in confusion, “What is the origin of this kind of fierce god, and why did it invade my Ten Thousand Demon Valley?”

“I don’t know either…” Mr. Tu’s voice was obscure, and then he suddenly started, thinking of something, and said, his teeth chattering:

“It’s the ‘God War’!”

“People are believers of the divine, they are dependents of the divine.”

“All the behaviors of cultivators, in myriad appearances, but traced to the root, are all the ‘will’ of the divine…”

“The cultivators of the Too Xu Gate and Chong Xu Gate, why did they attack the Ten Thousand Demon Valley with full force? Their purpose is… to send this ‘fierce god’ in, invade the Refining Demon Diagram, and damage my god lord’s foundation…”

With these words, the young master’s whole body was cold.

Even Mr. Tu didn’t think that the so-called ‘God War’ would come so directly, so ferociously.

Originally, he thought that the gods only hid behind the scenes, used believers as claws, secretly laid out plans, and slowly schemed.

But now, a prominent ‘fierce god’ actually appeared personally.

The forces on the side of Too Xu and Chong Xu are indeed not to be underestimated.

The ‘god’ behind them is also indeed not playing by the rules and is hard to fathom.

“If so,” the young master’s eyes were as serious as water, and he looked at Mr. Tu, “doesn’t that mean, He already knows… the true ‘secret’ of our Refining Demon Diagram?”

Mr. Tu’s expression was solemn, “He is a god; the way of a god is profound and unfathomable; it is not strange for them to be omniscient and omnipotent.”

The young master said: “Then what do we do now?”

Mr. Tu’s pupils trembled, his heart almost bled, and he gritted his teeth and said:

“Cut off the ‘God Bridge’!”

The young master was startled, somewhat unbelievable, “Cut the God Bridge?”

Mr. Tu said decisively: “Must cut it off! Absolutely cannot let Him peek at the true ‘God Hall’!”

“Even more so, cannot let Him touch the god lord’s ‘God Homeland’!”

The young master was solemn and nodded slightly.

Mr. Tu continued, “I will escort the young master, enter the Refining Demon Diagram, avoid this ‘fierce god’, go directly to the center, forcibly cut off the ‘God Bridge’, cut off the road to the ‘God Homeland’, and not give Him the opportunity to covet the god lord!”

“Once the situation is not right,” Mr. Tu looked at the young master, “this wisp of remnant soul of this old man will ‘bring up the rear’ for the young master!”

Enter the Refining Demon Diagram, directly face the ‘fierce god’…

The young master’s expression was resolute, and he nodded slightly.

And at this time, the ‘fierce god’ in Mr. Tu’s mouth was still unaware, finding things to “eat” inside the Refining Demon Diagram.

“Exactly where are the demons and monsters inside this diagram?”

Mo Hua silently muttered.

The ferocious and terrifying sword skeleton docilely followed behind Mo Hua.

It was somewhat absent-minded.

The scenes just now were still firmly engraved in its mind.

In a blink, the divine souls of more than ten steward-level demon cultivators were directly wiped out.

Even that leader of the demon cultivators was completely no match for this little ancestor.

Before becoming a “Sword Demon,” it was an old demon cultivator who had forged evil swords in the Refining Demon Valley for several hundred years.

During that time, whether the Ten Thousand Demon Valley had changed leaders, it was not very clear.

Whether this leader was the leader from several hundred years ago is also hard to say.

But since he could be the “leader” of the Ten Thousand Demon Valley, his identity was necessarily not ordinary, and his strength and means were indispensable.

And this leader now is indeed not to be underestimated.

In a nightmare, he could actually manifest a white bone pen, turn his own divine thought into blood, and draw an evil array.

The array contained laws of the great dao.

Manifesting an array with divine thought is more powerful than manifesting techniques, martial arts, spirit tools, and other moves.

This leader was already very strong.

At least the sword skeleton self-deprecatingly felt inferior.

But… it was strange that this little ancestor was a “pervert.”

The demon cultivator leader used bone as a pen and blood as ink, but the evil array had not yet been drawn.

But this little ancestor pointed a finger, and in just a few breaths, dense array patterns had already wrapped around that demon cultivator leader.

Victory and defeat were self-evident.

The sword skeleton even felt despair for that demon cultivator leader.

But along the way, seeing so many demons and monsters stronger than itself being pinched to death by Mo Hua like ants, the sword skeleton also felt a joy in its heart:

“It’s a good thing I begged for mercy early and flattered well. If not, this bone of mine, if a bit harder, would probably have turned to ashes by now…”

Moreover, after the divine souls of more than ten demon cultivators died, the sword skeleton had another full meal.

It almost ate to the point of bursting, and its strength compared to before was also quite a bit stronger.

“If I keep eating like this, will there be a day when I can become stronger than this little ancestor…”

The sword skeleton had a cheap thought in its heart.

On the other side, the single-minded Mo Hua, however, frowned slightly.

The places that could be found had almost all been searched…

But still, there were no signs of demons or monsters.

“Exactly where are they hiding?”

Mo Hua continued to walk towards the depths. After walking for a moment, he suddenly started, discovering that there seemed to be something in the depths of the Ten Thousand Demon Valley “enticing” him.

This was a very inexplicable attraction.

As if a kind of attachment to a “homeland,” it made the “god” part of Mo Hua feel a kind of uneasy longing and restlessness.

God homeland?

Mo Hua frowned.

He raised his head again and looked at the Ten Thousand Demon Valley inside this nightmare, his thoughts slightly moving.

The entire Ten Thousand Demon Valley in front of him relied on a kind of divine power that intermingled virtual and real, and was built with the assistance of a god path array.

Just like a “divine thought” building.

With the Refining Demon Wall Painting as bricks and stones on the outside, and the god path array as locks on the inside, it sealed such a world of divine thought, raising thousands of demons and monsters.

Virtual and real intermingled…

Everything inside the diagram corresponded one-to-one with the real world.

So to say, inside the Refining Demon Diagram, there should also be a Refining Demon Diagram?

What would the diagram inside the diagram look like?

Could it be that the entire Refining Demon Diagram is also the core of the entire nightmare?

Mo Hua recalled a bit.

Although there were arrays on the outside of the Refining Demon Diagram, there were no obvious array eyes or central array hubs.

Master once told him that the form of an array is ever-changing, but its fundamental framework will not change.

The set of array criteria—array eye, array hub, array patterns—remains unchanged.

“The god path array is an array at the divine thought level, which means its true hub is very likely not on the Refining Demon Diagram composed of earth and stone, but inside the Refining Demon Diagram built with divine thought.”

“And such a large god path array must require a grand-scale array eye and vast thought power to maintain its operation.”

This then means…

A flash of light appeared in Mo Hua’s eyes.

The Refining Demon Diagram is built by sealing numerous demons and monsters and using this as the “array eye” to form a god path array, maintaining the stability of the divine thought world inside the entire Refining Demon Diagram.

In other words, finding the array eye can also find the sealing place of numerous demons and monsters.

It can also find exactly where its own “big meal” is hidden…

“Refining Demon Diagram, array eye…”

Mo Hua followed the route in his memory and walked towards the depths of the Ten Thousand Demon Valley.

He wants to find the Refining Demon Diagram inside the nightmare.

Just like that, crossing over the Refining Demon Pot, Refining Pill Room, and some evil path buildings, Mo Hua suddenly discovered that the surrounding terrain had changed.

The road ahead suddenly became disordered.

He was somewhat lost.

Mo Hua was not startled but pleased.

Theoretically speaking, the Ten Thousand Demon Valley inside the Refining Demon Diagram and the Ten Thousand Demon Valley outside the diagram correspond one-to-one.

The pattern is similar, the details will have differences, but the overall structure is absolutely the same.

But the mountain path in front of his eyes seemed to be an artificially altered “layout,” tampering with the structure of the god path array.

A guilty conscience is the only reason to secretly alter things.

They want to confuse others’ cognition by altering the layout, thereby hiding something.

Mo Hua smiled slightly.

“Found it…”

He began to release his divine sense, perceiving the flow of thought power inside the entire nightmare, and through derivation, deducing the composition of the internal array patterns.

Soon, he found the direction.

The sword skeleton saw that the surrounding scenery was different from what was in its memory. Just as it was gazing in confusion, it saw Mo Hua find a direction and walk past by himself. Feeling helpless, it could only continue to follow.

Through intricate and complex roads, conveniently breaking through several walls, Mo Hua finally arrived in front of a majestic wall painting.

This wall painting was exactly the Refining Demon Diagram inside the painting.

It’s just that the wall painting was still empty.

Nothing was on it.

Mo Hua stared at the wall painting for a moment, his eyes slightly brightened, and he directly clenched his fist. He punched out a fist, covering it with a layer of gold light, and with a “boom” sound, he directly punched and collapsed the entire stone wall.

He is an array master, originally should solve the array.

But he was in a hurry, so he could only roughly “break” the array.

After the wall painting collapsed, it revealed a long passage behind it.

Behind the passage, there were numerous low roars of demon beasts transmitting.

Mo Hua relaxed his breath, smiled brightly, and stepped lightly onto this unknown passage.

The passage was narrow and pitch black.

He didn’t know how long he had walked before his eyes suddenly opened wide.

Mo Hua lifted his eyes and looked, slightly sucking in a cool breath.

In front of him was a great prison of demons and monsters!

At this time, inside the great prison, densely imprisoned were countless ferocious demons and monsters.

Their evil thoughts were deep, their eyes red, tied by strips of god path chains, imprisoned in “prison cells” composed of the god path, firmly sealed.

At this time, seeing Mo Hua, thousands of demons and monsters all lifted their heads.

Pairs of bloodthirsty eyes lit up, like blood-colored stars in the night sky.

“So many demons and monsters?!”

The sword skeleton trembled all over, and its skull went numb.

No wonder, the demon cultivators inside the Ten Thousand Demon Valley fundamentally dared not approach the Refining Demon Diagram.

So many sinister demons and monsters, even if there were ten of himself, would probably be torn into bone pieces alive, buried in demon bellies, not a single bone left.

“Little, little ancestor…”

The sword skeleton’s voice trembled slightly.

It wanted to say, don’t play anymore, let’s go back early.

So many demons and monsters, once they riot, even if your divine thought is strong, you will be eaten until not even bones are left.

But before it finished speaking, it just discovered that Mo Hua was no longer there.

The sword skeleton turned its head to look, and was almost scared out of its wits. It discovered that this little ancestor had actually rushed into the group of demons and monsters and was “acting arbitrarily.”

Mo Hua grasped a god path chain, used force fiercely, and then directly pulled the chain apart.

Bound by the chain was a wolf demon. Seeing its seal broken, it immediately jumped forward, opening its blood-basin mouth, and bit towards Mo Hua.

But the next instant, its big head was just grabbed by Mo Hua’s small hand, then it was fiercely smashed, heavily smashed on the ground, and its head was all cracked.

Mo Hua casually twisted and broke its neck.

The wolf demon turned into evil thoughts, curling and dissipating.

Mo Hua’s small mouth sucked, swallowing it all into his belly.

“Finally got something to eat…”

It had been too long, Mo Hua had almost forgotten what it felt like to eat demons and monsters to supplement his divine sense.

After swallowing the wolf demon, Mo Hua licked his lips, savored it a bit, and then started lining up again, killing the next one.

He followed the same method: first pull the god path chain apart, then twist the demon or monster to death. If one twist didn’t kill it, then he would hammer it with two fists, hammering it until its soul scattered, and then suck it into his mouth.

Just like that, he killed one and ate one, freshly killed and freshly eaten.

These god path chains were originally meant to “lock” these demons and monsters, but now they were protecting them instead.

If there were no god path chains, Mo Hua could eat even faster.

On the side, the sword skeleton was so shocked that its jawbone almost fell off.

It originally thought that the more than ten demon cultivators it had eaten on this road were already considered a “feast,” but it never thought that this little ancestor ate even more ferociously than itself!

The small belly seemed like a bottomless pit.

No matter how powerful these vast demons and monsters were, how burly their bodies, or how ferocious they looked…

This little ancestor would just pull, twist, kill, and suck, and then finish.

Eating demons and monsters was faster than drinking water.

And the crowd of demons and monsters, both shocked and angry, madly tore and bit at the struggling god path chains, roaring ferociously towards Mo Hua.

For a time, the entire great prison of demons and monsters was filled with cold wind and angry roars, and the voices of demons boiled.

Mo Hua ignored them.

The sky and earth are vast, but eating is the most important.

Don’t look at these demons and monsters calling out so lively now, they’ll be honest once they’re eaten into my belly.

Mo Hua continued to kill and eat as he went, but as he ate, he frowned.

“Too slow…”

“If I eat them one by one like this, I’ll have to eat until the year of the monkey and the month of the horse?”

“Need to think of a way…”

Mo Hua lifted his head and looked around, suddenly his eyes brightened, and he found a door on a high wall in the distant center.

This was a door heavily reinforced by a god path array.

A huge black “sheep horn” skull was actually carved on the door, appearing solemn and terrifying.

Sheep horn again!

Based on Mo Hua’s experience, sheep horn skulls are closely related to the Great Wilderness evil god.

In the god system of the Great Wilderness Lord, things carved with sheep horns are all extraordinary objects.

Behind this door, there must be good things!

Moreover, it is very likely that it hides the core array hub structure of the Refining Demon Diagram.

Controlling the array hub and unlocking all the seals would allow him to eat a full meal in one go.

Mo Hua’s spirits lifted, he leaped up, stepped on the heads of bears, bears, tigers, leopards, and other demons and monsters, and ran towards the distance.

The demons and monsters whose heads were stepped on could only roar at him powerlessly.

Soon, Mo Hua arrived in front of the sheep horn door.

He punched the sheep horn door.

The door didn’t move at all.

Mo Hua was not surprised; the seal on this door was almost the strongest god path seal he had seen all the way.

It would take some effort.

Mo Hua held his breath, and two small fists on his hands contained dazzling gold light. Then he let out a crisp shout, and his fists rained down on the sheep horn door like raindrops.

“Boom boom boom…”

Condensed divine thought power constantly bombarded the door.

Waves of shock, along the door, transmitted towards the four walls, shaking the entire great prison of demons and monsters, which all trembled slightly.

After bombarding for a while, Mo Hua was startled.

He discovered that there seemed to be movement inside the door, some kind of living divine thought aura.

“Are there still people inside this Refining Demon Diagram?”

Mo Hua’s thoughts moved.

General demon cultivators definitely don’t have the qualification to enter this sheep horn door.

Steward-level demon cultivators were almost all killed by himself.

Then the only one remaining and qualified to enter the sheep horn door inside…

Only Mr. Tu’s remnant soul.

And that legendary “young master”?

Mo Hua squinted and smiled.

“I’d like to see what this young master looks like…”

If he were outside, he would probably not be an opponent of this “young master.”

Not to mention, this young master’s identity is noble, and there are probably a bunch of disciples and elders protecting him on the side.

He would definitely hide as far as he could.

But now, he was inside the nightmare of the Refining Demon Diagram. Both sides were in a divine thought state. He, who had “proved the dao with divine sense,” killed demons and monsters like killing chickens and was fundamentally not afraid of any “young master.”

Now, this young master happened to be “blocked” by him inside the door. It could be said to be a rare good opportunity in a thousand years.

As long as he breaks this door, it is equivalent to tearing open the mysterious veil of this “young master.”

“I wonder if he has a life-long longevity talisman planted on his body?”

“If he does, I probably can’t kill him…”

Mo Hua muttered in his heart.

But it didn’t matter. Even if he couldn’t kill him, he could at least know his appearance.

Mo Hua’s fair hand gently grasped, and a gold sword condensed from his palm. The sword was ancient and simple in shape, rough in appearance, but its sharp edge was pressing.

Divine thought turned into a sword!

The distant sword skeleton felt this sharp sword intent, and its originally white bones became even paler.

And inside the sheep horn door.

‘Mr. Tu’ also perceived this sword qi, his expression immediately changed, and at the same time, a trace of enlightenment was born in his heart.

“Indeed, it is the… divine thought turned into a sword of the Too Xu Gate!”

Everything, all was arranged by the Too Xu Gate!
