Wu Hen and Mingyi signaled each other.
The two of them no longer hesitated and flew towards the Seven-Colored Mountain and Sea.
At times, the Seven-Colored Mountain and Sea looked as beautiful as a mythical realm, at others, as terrifying as hellish ashes. But no matter what shape it finally took, they were extraordinarily determined. The path ahead was unknown, but the person beside them was real, so there was no turning back.
The Night Leader clearly did not allow them to do so; he had his reasons.
Similarly, the Red Robed Saint did not allow it; he had his obsession!
These two great powers of this era ultimately stood on their opposite side.
The Night Leader was the first to make a move, blocking Mingyi. He was very aware that the Time Yuan You embedded in Mingyi was the key to repairing the Seven-Colored Mountain and Sea. He could not let Mingyi cross over.
"I'll handle him, you handle him." Mingyi urgently told Wu Hen when she saw the situation.
Mingyi donned the Night Face, and the Vermilion Bird Battle Robe on her body turned into the color of night. The material of the robe was like her skin, revealing ancient paintings on her jade-like complexion.
In the night, her form was faintly visible, the boundless earth becoming her soldiers. As she threw a fierce Divine Fist towards the Night Leader, a thousand punches from the earth aimed at this mighty human.
The Night Leader laughed, even somewhat puzzled why Mingyi, who had stood on the same front with him not long ago, now turned against him.
"It was I who granted you the Night God's Power. You dare use it against me?" The Night Leader also wore a cold mask, but this mask was more like a living creature, changing expressions along with his countenance.
He raised his hands and clasped them together.
In the night sky appeared the terrifying silhouette of clasped hands, like a blade from the Sky Dome, slicing heavily towards where Mingyi was. The sky was split open, mountains torn apart, seas divided!
The Night Leader's terrifying energy spread throughout Infinite City. Some gods wandering nearby were unfortunately cut down; they had originally come, seeing the Red Robed Saint attacking, hoping to claim the head credit for killing the Night Leader. Little did they expect the scarred Night Leader to still possess a power that transcended dimensions, making fifth-class stars and fourth-class Star Gods like sparrows before him.
Mingyi's thousand fists of the earth were shattered, and she was forced to retreat back into Infinite City by this energy.
Before her, a shocking tear in heaven and earth formed, isolating her between Infinite City and the Seven-Colored Mountain and Sea.
"This slash is just a warning to you. If you dare take another step towards there, I will not show mercy!" The Night Leader was as good as his word. He knew he was already losing the battle; however, he also knew that his fate wouldn't end here.
Mingyi and Wu Hen merely represented one of the future's flourishing branches of the Nuwa God End three hundred years later. They couldn't understand him; it didn't matter. Five hundred years later, a thousand years later, thousands of years later, eventually there would be a branch aligned perfectly with his thoughts, evolved enough to defeat the Red Robed Saint. Then they would traverse through time, arriving before him to fight for his beliefs... Therefore, this bridge had to be completely severed, or else the Red Robed Saint would fly across and extinguish the Nuwa spark!
"Mingyi, are you hurt?" Wu Hen flew to Mingyi's side.
Mingyi shook her head, showing some bewilderment at why the Red Robed Saint hadn't struck at Wu Hen.
Now, both great powers of the era stood against them, making their situation extremely difficult. If not for their brethren blocking other Cang Chu gods and Night Nuwa warriors, they would not only have to overcome these two great era powers but also need to fight their way out of both camps. 𝚗o𝚟pub.𝚌𝚘𝚖
"He's not an idiot. He wants to extinguish the seedlings of our entire Nuwa lineage. He doesn't strike us dead because he wishes us to first repair this Seven-Colored Mountain and Sea, and then cross to the other side, eliminating all our future Nuwa people from the source... It's much simpler than him hunting us down one by one with countless future warriors to face." Wu Hen said.
The Night Leader wasn't wrong.
The obsession of the Red Robed Saint was to extinguish the Nuwa lineage; otherwise, with the Nuwa God End mastering the Power of Time, they would endlessly traverse over, rewriting history time and again.
From his perspective, how to curb this situation?
Of course, by eradicating the Nuwa people from the source since all the subsequent Nuwa lineage arises because the Night Leader planted a Soul Nesting Wood Divine Bud across the shore. It would fall into some corner of Cang Chu with Skyfire, so what he needed to do was, after the Seven-Colored Mountain and Sea was repaired, briefly go across to extinguish the spark and erase all of Nuwa's history.
This bud is in the High-Dimensional World; extinguishing it means erasing from the high dimension downwards, so the target of erasure is no longer these humans stuck in the time pit of Infinite City but to erase all, including Mo Chuan's Nuwa God End... They would never appear in Cang Chu again.
"It's truly cunning!" Mingyi was also somewhat exasperated.
Not a hint of divine integrity, clearly a conflict between him and the Night Leader, yet they did not engage in a life-and-death struggle, instead using these people from the future to achieve their own goals!
"There's no other way; it's better than dealing with both simultaneously..." Wu Hen said.
"Then if we team up to deal with the Night Leader now, repairing the Seven-Colored Mountain and Sea, aren't we playing right into Old Monster Cai's hands?" Mingyi said.
"Take it one step at a time. First, we deal with the Night Leader, repair the Seven-Colored Mountain and Sea... then have a life-or-death battle with Old Monster Cai Qiong. In any case, we can't let him follow us across—we're going to plant a Transmission Seed, and he's going to extinguish our root." Wu Hen said.
"But if we repair the Seven-Colored Mountain and Sea and still can't defeat Old Monster Cai Qiong, won't we be risking the erasure of the entire Nuwa lineage????" Mingyi was also a bit panicked.
This price was too great.
No wonder the Night Leader would never accept the opinions of these future warriors.
"So Li Feng was right; there's only one chance. Our descendants will never blame us for not letting them be born in an unstable, unsettled world; they will only question us from endless suffering and disaster in the sky, asking why we didn't fight back then?" Wu Hen said.
The Night Leader's over-cautiousness led his descendants to live without dignity in this Otherworldly Dust.
Did he still expect a strong Nuwa God End to align with his goals??
Even though Li Feng could be very crazy and arrogant at times.
But he said one thing right.
These people trapped in Cang Chu Divine Realm, all are just small fry beneath the Dragon Gate. No matter what realm they evolve to, they are always the failed ones who cannot transcend dimensions!
They have no right to point fingers and criticize our generation, who still charges forward bravely. What they need to do is not become barriers or a burden.
