Chu Mo was seen holding a Mahayana-stage demon core in his hand, walking back and forth between the seal and the giant tree.
To be precise, it was a small phantom of a Qilin running back and forth above the demon core, and Chu Mo was just following behind watching the show.
With a wave of its hand, the little Qilin unleashed countless mysterious runes that disappeared into the giant tree and the ground.
The once lush and verdant leaves of that towering tree were turning yellow and falling off at a visible speed.
The terrifying vitality emanating from the tree was also rapidly fading and weakening.
At this moment, the towering tree suddenly resembled a terminally ill old man.
On the ground.
The golden lotuses were constantly being born, only to be annihilated the moment the runes entered them.
With the eyesight of Zeng Mushen and the others, they could naturally see it.
The speed at which the golden lotus is born is far slower than the speed at which it disappears.
In other words...
This little Qilin is breaking the formation, and it seems to be very effective!
"Young Master, you truly live up to your reputation as a disciple of the Human Emperor; your methods are simply unbelievable!"
Wu An was utterly shocked, his eyes gleaming with fervent admiration.
"Indeed, at this speed, breaking the formation is only a matter of time. This Qilin... is no ordinary creature!"
Yu Jingzhi was equally excited.
Despite their best efforts, the Demon Slayer Sect was still unable to break the seal.
However, it was easily broken by one of the spirits under the young master's command.
At this moment, he felt that Chu Mo's figure had become majestic and mysterious.
But before today.
He always felt that following the young master to his death was to fulfill his ancestors' last wish.
But now it seems...
Who dares to say that people like us are incapable of creating miracles?
Perhaps... there's a chance I won't die?
Even the god of the Zengmu couldn't help but stare blankly, his eyes lost in thought.
Now it seems I underestimated the young master.
The seal that everyone else was helpless against was easily broken by him with just a slight effort.
Although he did not believe that Chu Mo was capable of handling the tribulation or doing what even the Human Emperor could not do.
But something called hope slowly took root and sprouted deep within his heart.
At this moment, Chu Mo's heart was also filled with excitement and anticipation.
However, he still felt a little sorry for the towering trees that were gradually losing their vitality.
For a tree to grow to this size, it must have endured countless hardships.
It would be such a shame to destroy it like this.
He thought for a moment, but still couldn't help asking the little Qilin:
"Little Qilin, do you have a way to break the formation while also saving the tree?"
"Ah, young master, do you want to keep this tree? I can only try my best, but I can't guarantee it will survive."
The little Qilin looked completely bewildered.
Chu Mo sighed softly, "Just do your best, and leave the rest to fate."
He felt it was a real pity to destroy such a wonder of nature.
But they will never let that hinder their path to becoming stronger.
The little Qilin continued breaking through the formation.
The rate at which that towering tree was withering was clearly slowing down, but its vitality was still gradually fading away.
I don't know how much time has passed.
Amidst the expectant gazes of the crowd, the golden lotuses that had been surging on the ground finally vanished and dimmed.
In the instant the golden lotus vanished, a mysterious underground entrance suddenly appeared on the ground.
Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.
Their eyes were filled with shock and excitement, and a tremendous sense of joy rose within them.
"Elder Yu, you stay here and guard the entrance. The three of us will go down and investigate," Zeng Mushen quickly made the arrangements.
"Okay," Yu Jingzhi nodded seriously.
Although he was very curious, he knew the importance of keeping people outside.
Things are different now than before.
The seal has been broken; anyone who happens to come here can go in.
It won't do if no one is watching over it!
From this moment forward, this is the territory of the Demon Slayer Sect.
Anyone who dares to trespass will die!
Zeng Mushen led the way, Chu Mo was protected in the middle, and Wu An brought up the rear.
The three people and the spirit of the artifact cautiously stepped into the underground entrance.
As soon as he entered, Chu Mo was dumbfounded again.
He originally thought that since such a powerful seal had been created in this place...
The scale will definitely not be small.
Even if we don't compare it to the original hiding place of the Kunlun Mountain Great Road, it can't possibly be smaller than the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor.
The result was just an ordinary cave of a little over 100 square meters, no more than six or seven meters high.
It was completely empty inside, and everything was clearly visible.
Apart from a worn-out stone box, slightly larger than the palm of your hand, on a simple stone table, there was nothing else.
I didn't see a single one of the magical artifacts, divine weapons, or rare treasures I had imagined.
Not to mention Chu Mo and Wu An, even Zeng Mushen was full of disappointment.
After months of painstaking effort, the seal has finally been broken today.
Is that all?
The only hope now is that stone box.
Hopefully, there's a priceless treasure inside; otherwise, all our previous efforts would have been in vain.
Chu Mo nervously opened the box, only to find a simple, ancient jade pendant the size of a child's palm inside.
It's rustic and simple; no matter how you look at it, it doesn't seem to have anything to do with treasures.
One side was completely smooth, without any decoration, while the other side was engraved with only three simple, ancient characters:
"What is the Way?"
Chu Mo was completely dumbfounded!
What's going on?
Did we go through all this trouble to get here just to answer your questions?
What then is the Way?
I also want to ask you, is it fun to play tricks on people? Don't you have any humanity at all?
