Immortality Through Array Formations

Chapter 1789: Chapter 896: Supreme Emotion Cutting_3

Mo Hua rested for a while, recovering his Divine Sense.

Now the cultivation of the Godslaying Sword had entered the right path, and only then did Mo Hua have time to consider another issue...

”Supreme Emotion-cutting Dao...”

Mo Hua murmured softly with furrowed brows.

This was the other ”Supreme Great Dao method” passed to him by the Heaven Void Ancestor that night in the Sword Tomb Forbidden Land.

Mo Hua didn’t really dare to learn it.

He felt there was something wrong.

The Tai Xu God-Slaying Sword and Supreme Emotion Cutting Dao seemed somewhat similar, but upon further reflection, they were completely different styles.

One was a profound and upright Sword Dao.

The other was an emotionless, detached and peculiar spell point.

In the current Sword Dao Profound Meaning of Taixu Gate, Mo Hua had never seen any record similar to ”Emotion Cutting”.

”And why did the Patriarch Dugu suddenly teach me this thing?”

Mo Hua knitted his brows in recollection.

The Ancestor seemed normal that night, but his speech always carried a sense of discord.

On the Ancestor’s part... has something happened?

The person who ”preached” to him that night, was it actually the Ancestor himself?

Could something, not a mere person, circumvent the powerful Heaven Void Ancestor to preach to him?

Mo Hua’s brows furrowed tighter and tighter.

Things were becoming more mysterious...

But the method was already taught, so now the question is whether he should learn this ”Supreme Emotion Cutting Dao”.

Mo Hua recalled the spell point of ”Emotion Cutting”, one by one, and finally had to admit it was an extremely profound, extremely rare, and extremely powerful ”Law”.

After cultivating it and comprehending its Dao, maybe he can truly sever emotions with one Thought, cleave mortal bonds with One Sword, and ”cut” anything.

But Mo Hua always felt there was something wrong with this spell point.

The problem lies in the words ”Emotion Cutting”.

Humans have emotions, which is what makes them human; if emotions are cut, and one becomes emotionless and desireless, is one still considered human?

Not being human anymore, what’s the use in comprehending Dao?

Even if Dao is comprehended, what sort of Dao would it be to comprehend it in a ”Non-Human” state?

”Could the Ancestor... be deceiving me?”

”Or is there something malevolent secretly tricking me?”

”Should I still learn it?”

...

Mo Hua stroked his chin, pondered for a moment, and felt he should... try to learn it first, as this is a method of ”comprehending Dao”.

But he couldn’t learn it in its entirety, because there’s surely some mystery in it.

Take its essence, discard its dregs.

Simply put, it’s learning by observation.

The ”Emotion Cutting” profound meaning taught by ”Patriarch Dugu” echoed in Mo Hua’s ears:

”Empty the heart, sever the self; integrate Human Dao and unify with the Law of ’Elimination’, use the body as a Sword, the soul as a Sword, unmatched sharpness, there’s nothing in this world that can’t be cut!”

This sounds very strong, it can be learned.

But ”cut off all worldly emotions, achieve a state of emotionless and desireless, selfless and Thoughtless, free from imagination and attachment...”

This phrase is a bit peculiar, can be learned by observation.

Mo Hua then tried to cultivate the ”Supreme Emotion Cutting Dao” based on these spell points.

He began to cut away his emotions.

No thoughts, no imagination; no attachment, no Thought; no heart, no ego...

Cutting emotions...

His expression gradually changed from gentle to indifferent, even containing a hint of icy ferocity.

It seemed that everything in this world was a hindrance to his pursuit of Dao, and everyone had to be cut.

He himself, his relatives, his friends, his mentors, the one he loved, all had to be cut and killed...

Only by cutting and killing everything could he attain Dao.

Mo Hua couldn’t help but murmur softly:

”Only by cutting and killing everything... can I attain Dao...”

”Cutting and killing everything...”

”Cut...”

Mo Hua’s mind blanked, his expression twisted momentarily, then began to blur, his features dissolving like makeup being washed away...

”No!”

Moments later, Mo Hua suddenly awoke.

He covered his face, cutting off all Thoughts, and forcibly stabilized his mind with Meditation Technique.

It took a full 30 minutes to recover from the mindset of ”Emotion Cutting comprehend Dao”.

Mo Hua felt lingering fear.

”This thing is powerful, but also terrifying...”

He almost really cut away all his emotions.

Mo Hua furrowed his brow.

Once emotions are cut, self-perishes, and Divine Thought loses control, he dared not imagine what he would become.

”Emotion-Cutting...”

Mo Hua pondered deeply.

Emotions can be cut a little, but not entirely.

”Emotion Cutting” is for comprehending Dao, not truly for cutting emotions.

If truly all are cut, and one doesn’t remain a person, the problem would definitely be greater.

He grasped this understanding during the fusion of Divine Marrow, Divine Sense Sublimation, integrating Divinity and humanity.

Since Divinity and humanity can be integrated, the ”Emotion Cutting” Dao should also be integrable.

”Can’t cut everything, some emotions must be kept...”

”Remember the nurturing grace of parents...”

”Never forget the teaching grace of the mentor...”

”The uncles and aunts in Tongxian City and friends met along the way, the senior brothers and sisters and Junior Brother of Taixu Gate, Sect Elders, Elder Master Xun and Heaven Void Ancestor...”

”And Aunt Wan, Yu Er, Uncle Gu...”

After considering all this, Mo Hua realized there truly were many people he needed to remember...

Interacting with people, generating affection, these are also the foundation of a person’s emotional existence.

If forsaken, one would sooner or later lose their original heart, becoming hollow and numb.

”Need to find an anchor point...”

But, along this way, there are too many people he needs to remember, Mo Hua couldn’t quite find an ”anchor point” to determine the extent of ”Emotion-Cutting”.

The bonds with parents and mentors are too deep.

Because the ties are too deep, even if emotions are cut, they would be the last ”cut”, not so easily forgotten.
