This scoundrel is a bit of a swordsman.

Chapter 287 Black and White Moon Wheel

"So what exactly is our current situation? Have you perhaps already merged all the memories of the Moon Goddess of all generations?"

"Integration means my demise. Do you think I should accept such integration?"

Mu Wushuang sighed deeply, then explained,

"It was the power of the Origin Runes on your body that saved my life, which is why our memories are intertwined. When these memories dissipate and we return to our original forms, my crisis will continue. This is the destiny set by that man. To get rid of all this, I must break through the rules established by that man."

Xiao Xingchen frowned.

"Do you know who this sword-wielding man you mentioned is?"

"I don't know, but the person who could refine the Ninth Generation Goddess of the Moon Wheel is no ordinary person. Although I couldn't see the man's face clearly, I have a hunch."

"This person is reminiscent of the Sword Immortal of Xiao..." Mu Wushuang's conjecture caused Xiao Xingchen's body to tremble violently, and he looked at her in disbelief.

"Impossible. Xiao Jianxian was a figure from a hundred years ago, but the Moon Wheel Clan has had nine generations of goddesses alone. Their history should be much longer. The timeline doesn't match at all. Xiao Jianxian could not possibly have appeared at that time."

“You’re absolutely right, there are indeed conflicts in the timeline. But I feel that the figure overlaps quite a bit with the records of the Sword Immortal who appeared at the sacrificial site, so I can’t be sure either. However, if we want to escape danger, we must break through that man’s suppression.”

"Where is his repression located, and how can it be broken?"

Xiao Xingchen had doubts. He also felt that the man was somewhat familiar. Now, after Mu Wushuang mentioned it, putting aside the paradox of time, if it really was Xiao Jianxian, then there were even more mysteries surrounding him.

Regardless of whether it was true or not, he wanted to take the plunge, partly to help them escape their current crisis, and partly to verify who that person really was.

Mu Wushuang suddenly fell silent, seemingly hesitating whether to tell Xiao Xingchen. Ultimately, she shook her head.

"You should leave. I can send you away safely now. That man is too terrifying for you to do. I can't let you lose your life."

"How can you be so self-righteous? I'm not doing this for you. I want to see who that person really is. If it really is Xiao Fenghua, then it's not your problem anymore. I'm destined to fight him."

"Besides, although I can't beat him, I'm only under his suppression right now. If I can't even break through his suppression, then I might as well give up. Do you see this bronze divine tree? It is my source of power. My cultivation has long been replaced by the divine tree. I don't believe that this thing can't handle the suppression of a Xiaojian Immortal."

Xiao Xingchen snorted coldly. He had come to understand over this period of time that this bronze divine tree was an outrageous thing. He hadn't paid much attention to it, but unexpectedly, the divine tree was performing so powerfully here. He had already decided that if he moved this divine tree out, all that bullshit about suppression would be overturned by the divine tree's destructive power.

Furthermore, he noticed that a power was dormant in the branches of the divine tree. He had recently neglected these powers, which were the very foundation of his survival.

With the guidance of the Bronze Tree, he could now command these powers, and with the addition of the bronze light, he didn't consider himself an easy target.

"Are you really not going to listen to advice? I'm doing this for your own good."

"Who told you to be kind to me? Just you wait and see, I'll deal with him. This is my personal feud with him, it has nothing to do with you."

Mu Wushuang was so angry her teeth ached. She had meant well, but this man wasn't appreciating it at all.

"Fine, you want to die, huh? Then I'll grant your wish. I'll use the goddess's power to send you to the place of suppression. Whether you come back alive or not is up to you."

"Wait a minute, first tell me what this so-called 'suppression ground' is..."

"How would I know? You'll find out when you get there. Since you're so capable, I'll wait for you to come back."

Mu Wushuang was also furious and didn't give him a chance to speak. A bright moon appeared behind her, making her look like a goddess. Under the moon's glow, her clothes and demeanor also began to turn cold.

As the moon rose, Xiao Xingchen watched in stunned silence as his body was gradually obliterated. He felt no pain, but he could feel himself being swallowed by nothingness.

"What are you doing?" He looked at Mu Wushuang, who was enveloped by the moon wheel, and there was nothing familiar about her anymore. This was exactly the same as what he had seen in the crystal coffin with his Star Eye. At this moment, Mu Wushuang was the real Moon Wheel Goddess.

"Remember, the Source Rune can reveal all seals."

In his final moments, a soft voice rang in his ears—Mu Wushuang's last words of advice.

At the bottom of the abyss, time seemed to stand still. Mu Wushuang knelt on the ground. In front of her, Xiao Xingchen had a sword stuck between his eyebrows. The sword was covered with mysterious inscriptions. Drops of blood from between his eyebrows, like crystal red beads, fell through the sword and onto Mu Wushuang. The two were thus connected in a strange way.

Suddenly, a bright moon rose beneath Mu Wushuang's kneeling feet, illuminating the endless darkness of the abyss like a silver plate, and revealing the true Nine Gates to the coffin.

Time lost its meaning here; only the mysterious aura of the moon condensed like silk threads, coiling towards the nine pythons.

At the same instant, the nine crystal coffins shone brightly, and shattered moon wheels rose from the crystal coffins, reflecting the brilliance of Mu Wushuang's complete moon wheel.

From a distance, the nine broken moon discs resembled a canvas stained with ink, filled with black spots, while Mu Wushuang's moon disc was as clear and transparent as crystal, sacred and unparalleled.

"I will dismantle my body to summon the true spirit, and with my blood, I will call upon its true name, Frostmoon!"

The voice that came from Mu Wushuang's mouth was like heavenly music, echoing deep in the palace, accompanied by the crisp sound of chains breaking.

The nine giant pythons seemed to sense an unprecedented danger, and at the same time they roared to the sky. The pythons soared into the air, and the bright moon hung high. As the true name of Frost Moon was awakened, the ground began to shimmer with a frost-like light, which then spread outwards like a tide.

In just a moment, the entire abyss was covered by pure white frost, and the nine pythons seemed to be frozen, struggling but unable to escape.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the nine shattered moons suddenly soared into the air and flew to the top of the palace, where they began to converge, gradually merging into a single, complete moon.

However, this bright moon exuded an eerie aura, resembling a black full moon, confronting the frost moon in the void.

"Goddesses of the Moon Wheel throughout the ages, please help me break the barrier,"

Mu Wushuang coughed up another mouthful of blood. The Moon Goddess and Mu Wushuang had been entangled for generations, and now, with their memories merging, the shared aura made the black full moon understand something.

As Mu Wushuang's essence blood stained the black moon, a dark red and black moon began to emit a black glow. In contrast to the white light of the frost moon, the originally black abyss suddenly transformed into a world of stark black and white, much like the scene on the yellow sand.

The scene is divided into black and white, and at the boundary between the two colors, a door is slowly opening.
