Sophistry's Trap

Above the Southern Region of the Azure Blue Realm, dark clouds churned, carrying a heart-pounding oppression. Chu Mo held the Chaos Sword, his eyes scanning the surroundings vigilantly. Having just gone through a fierce battle, his aura had not completely settled, his clothes were torn, and bloodstained.

"Chu Mo, things aren't good over at Mirror Abyss, we need to hurry!" Yun Che's anxious voice, that of his childhood sweetheart, rang in his ears. Her face was pale, her forehead covered in sweat, and her hair was damp with sweat, sticking to her cheeks.

Chu Mo's heart tightened. Without hesitation, he followed Yun Che and rushed towards Mirror Memory City. When they arrived at Mirror Memory City, it was already shrouded in an evil aura. The once peaceful city was now in ruins, shattered prisms scattered everywhere, emitting a faint yet eerie light.

Just then, the mysterious Saintess, Su Hanxue, appeared before them. Her white clothes flapped in the wind, but her face no longer held its usual coldness and holiness. Instead, there was a faint, almost imperceptible sinister smile.

"Chu Mo, you're finally here." Su Hanxue's voice carried a hint of mockery. "You certainly made me wait."

Chu Mo frowned tightly, staring at Su Hanxue vigilantly. "What do you mean by this? What exactly happened to Mirror Abyss?"

"Mirror Abyss? He's been completely controlled by the Demon God Remnant Thought. He's my puppet now." Su Hanxue chuckled lightly, a hint of ruthlessness flashing in her eyes.

"Impossible! You're lying!" Yun Che shouted angrily, her weapon trembling slightly in her hand.

"Believe it or not." Su Hanxue shrugged, then snapped her fingers.

Mirror Abyss's figure slowly walked out of the darkness. His eyes were vacant, and black mist emanated from his body. The mirrored weapon in his hand gleamed with a cold light.

"Mirror Abyss! Snap out of it!" Chu Mo shouted loudly, trying to awaken Mirror Abyss's consciousness.

Mirror Abyss showed no reaction. He attacked Chu Mo and Yun Che like a walking corpse. Chu Mo quickly swung his sword to block. The Chaos Sword collided with Mirror Abyss's mirrored weapon, emitting a harsh sound.

In the fierce battle, Chu Mo found that Mirror Abyss's attacks were becoming increasingly sharp, and his strength seemed to be constantly increasing. What made him even more desperate was that the Chaos Power within him had begun to become chaotic, unable to circulate smoothly.

"There's not much time left. We have to find a way to release Mirror Abyss's control within ten minutes, otherwise everything will be over." Chu Mo was extremely anxious, and large beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

Just then, Su Hanxue suddenly spoke. "Chu Mo, do you think you can defeat me and Mirror Abyss? Don't dream about it. Actually, I've been using you all along. Approaching you from the very beginning was to get your Chaos Sword and the Primordial Sword Art."

"You!" Chu Mo felt a surge of anger and shock. He never expected that the seemingly kind Su Hanxue had been the mastermind hidden behind everything.

"Now, hand over the Chaos Sword and the Primordial Sword Art, and I might consider sparing your lives." Su Hanxue said smugly.

Chu Mo gritted his teeth, secretly thinking of a countermeasure. I can't hand over the Chaos Sword, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable. But the current situation is too disadvantageous for us. What should I do?

At this critical moment, Mirror Abyss's body suddenly trembled, and a flicker of clarity flashed in his eyes. "Chu Mo, quickly... quickly use the reversal technique of the Primordial Sword Art, there might still be a glimmer of hope." Mirror Abyss's voice was weak and urgent.

Chu Mo's heart filled with joy. Without hesitation, he circulated the Primordial Sword Art, attempting to perform the reversal technique. But as soon as he circulated the technique, he felt a powerful resistance spreading within his body, as if an invisible hand was stopping him.

"Haha, do you think I'll let you perform the technique so easily? Don't waste your effort." Su Hanxue mocked.

Time passed by second by second, and Chu Mo's situation became increasingly dangerous. He watched as Mirror Abyss was gradually controlled by the Demon God Remnant Thought again, his heart filled with unwillingness and despair.

Is there really no way? Chu Mo cried out in his heart, the Chaos Sword in his hand also becoming heavier and heavier
