Immortality Through Array Formations

Chapter 2413: Chapter 1096: "Little Brother

The sinister-looking "Yu Er" was illuminated by the lantern’s flame in the dark of night, gazing eerily at Mo Hua.

But Mo Hua remained calm, showing no surprise, no shock, and no fear or any unusual emotions.

For some reason, "Yu Er" suddenly couldn’t laugh anymore.

Mo Hua extended a pale finger, touched "Yu Er" on the forehead, and said indifferently, "You finally came out. I’ve been waiting for you all day."

"Yu Er"’s expression slightly changed, "You... know?"

Mo Hua said, "If the Evil God were so easy to kill, it wouldn’t be called the Evil God."

He knew this better than anyone.

"Yu Er" looked grim, his voice hoarse, "What do you want to do?"

Mo Hua’s eyes shone gold, with a sharp divine gleam.

Having been torn apart by Mo Hua before, "Yu Er" trembled inside, his expression extremely serious, but suddenly twisted his mouth into a sinister smile, confident without fear:

"You want to kill me? Don’t forget, I’m now one with Yu Er; I am Yu Er, and Yu Er is me. Killing me is killing Yu Er."

"Your Heavenly Demon Slash cannot separate us."

Mo Hua nodded, "That’s right. If you had possessed someone else, I would’ve already annihilated you along with the Divine Fetus, making your divine soul die and vanish."

"But the one you possess is Yu Er, and I dare not act rashly. Indeed, I have no way."

"I brought you out today, let you show your face, merely to warn you..."

"Warn me?" "Yu Er" sneered, "On what grounds do you warn me? Do you think your warning will be effective?"

Mo Hua looked impassive, his gaze authoritative.

The smile on "Yu Er"’s face disappeared, replaced with a grim expression.

"You should know," Mo Hua said calmly, "The only reason I don’t kill you is because of Yu Er."

"In other words, Yu Er is your ’amulet.’"

"As long as Yu Er lives well, you can live."

"If one day..." In Mo Hua’s tone, there was a chilling edge, "I discover... no, even if I calculate that Yu Er’s life soul is extinguished and the divine sense lost, I will travel to Qian State regardless of distance, to extract your soul and rend your form with my own hands."

"My methods, you’ve experienced them before..."

"Even if you’re an Evil God, I will make you, unable to live, unable to die, trapped for eternity, reduced to my ’Straw Dog,’ skinned and disemboweled like livestock, to forge the foundation of my Divine Way."

Every word was a rebellious blasphemy against the heavens.

"Yu Er" was enraged, eyes blood-red, veins vicious, yet deep within was a profound dread.

He knew that the words from this "human" before him were likely not empty.

With a mortal body on a deity’s path, a grave anomaly to defy the Great Dao’s taboo.

And his life chart, interweaving colossal good and evil, evil qi, heavenly secret, causality, and fate, mixed together in chaos, unfathomable.

More importantly, he had already been "slain" alive once by him, divine soul separated, vital energy gravely injured.

And this half-human, half-god monster was still only in its "infancy."

Ten years, fifty years, a hundred years later, what would He become?

As the Evil God True Embryo, "Yu Er" felt chills in his heart, even a shred of instinctive fear.

Mo Hua observed "Yu Er"’s eyes, confirming his fear, and nodded:

"Good, it seems you understand."

"Yu Er" seemed somewhat humiliated, gaze vicious as he looked at Mo Hua.

Mo Hua shook his head, "Don’t look at me with that gaze, I dislike it. Also..."

Mo Hua tapped "Yu Er" on the forehead with his finger again and again, "That ’Brother Mo’ you called earlier was sweet; I liked it."

"Remember, in front of me, you’re always just a ’little brother.’"

The Evil God True Embryo finally flew into a rage of humiliation, unwilling to face Mo Hua anymore, and closed his eyes.

The sinister aura on "Yu Er"’s face gradually faded, and after a moment, when he opened his eyes again, his gaze was clear, returning to the original Yu Er.

Mo Hua looked at him warmly.

Yu Er was being watched by Mo Hua, as if his inner secrets were discovered. He felt a bit guilty, a bit ashamed, a bit afraid, unsure how to speak, and finally, in tears and a bit fearful, he said:

"Brother Mo, I... I... have turned bad..."

Mo Hua rubbed Yu Er’s forehead, speaking soothingly:

"The human heart always has evil. In everyone’s heart, good and evil are mixed."

"You were too kind before; even if you turn ’bad’ now, you’re just like an ordinary person. There’s no difference, so don’t worry about it."

Yu Er nodded, somewhat understanding, but still uneasy internally:

"But... I feel like I’ve become two people, a good Yu Er and a bad Yu Er..."

Mo Hua inquired, "Does the ’bad Yu Er’ in your heart bully you?"

Yu Er nodded timidly:

"It says horrible things to me, threatens me, forces me, even... curses me... causing me to have many bad thoughts..."

Yu Er’s voice grew quieter.

Mo Hua smiled slightly, "Then use these ’evil thoughts’ to temper your Taoist Heart."

Yu Er was taken aback, "Temper... the Taoist Heart?"

Mo Hua nodded, "It’s not pure goodness that’s called good; there’s no such person in the world, no truly uncontaminated ’good.’"

"A benevolent heart can also be sullied, stained with evil thoughts, and suffer from the conflict between good and evil."

"In the struggle of good and evil, maintaining your true self without changing your original intention is the true good."

"Such ’goodness,’ forged in the refining of conflict, is more precious than innate purity."

"So, don’t be afraid, face your true self. Treat all evil thoughts as ’tools’ to temper your inner self, and your Taoist Heart will grow increasingly strong and resilient, remaining unstained, even through trials and tribulations."
