Hiss! The sword spirit’s manifestation screeched, still struggling while surrounded by blood energy. But no matter how much it struggled, it couldn’t break free of the blood energy. All it could do was constantly fire off beam after beam of sword energy.

Any one of these beams of sword energy could slice open the earth, but it was all useless before the limitations imposed by the Immeasurable Sword.

But the sword spirit clearly wasn’t planning on giving up.

It threw its head back and howled.

Its howl penetrated through the clouds, and in response, a buzzing rose up from the Treasure Paradise.

Countless motes of sword energy rose up, rustling like leaves in the wind amid the buzzing.

“This is…” Everyone was stunned, and even the Blood River Lord grimaced. “The other sword spirits? How!?”

After the Yin Yang Division Sword fused with the Treasure Paradise, its sword spirit was shattered into countless remnant souls, which was why its power could be used throughout the Treasure Paradise. The Blood River Lord understood this.

But he didn’t care, for what he had imprisoned was none other than the core sword spirit of the Yin Yang Division Sword, the largest and most important one. So long as he controlled this sword spirit, the others would have to obey.

After all, the sword spirits had once been of one body and were mentally linked, just like Tang Jie and his avatar and the Blood River Lord and his avatars. No matter how many avatars there were, their minds were always linked. So long as he controlled the primary soul, the others would naturally be under his control as well.

But he hadn’t expected this kind of development.

Those scattered sword spirit souls hadn’t been affected by the primary sword spirit being imprisoned, were still able to move and act on their own, and now, they had answered the call of the primary sword spirit and gathered together, charging out with a murderous aura.

This was truly a big surprise.

Tang Jie perhaps wouldn’t have been that surprised. This was because Tang Jie had found through his study that the splintered sword spirits had, over such a long period, developed their own wills, making them a special lifeform that existed somewhere between a hivemind and individuals.

They were linked together like a hivemind, but they could think on their own like individuals.

When the primary sword spirit was in danger, their independent wills made them unaffected. On the contrary, they came together and went crazy.

All of this was beyond the Blood River Lord’s expectations, catching him off guard.

But he was still an ancient powerhouse who had lived ten thousand years. As those thousands of splintered sword spirits attacked, the Blood River Lord laughed and said, “Fine! If that’s what you want, I’ll use you to open the seal and break the domain barrier!”

He grabbed the Immeasurable Sword and swung it at the air in front of him, cutting open a fissure.

A spatial fissure!

Even more shocking was that within the spatial fissure wasn’t the infinite void, but a crimson wall of flesh. As the fissure opened, blobs of meat began to sprout from the flesh wall, swiftly repairing the crack.

The domain barrier!

When Reverend Celestial Hook made the Qian Kun Bag into its own world, he used a special method to embed the Qian Kun Bag into the domain barrier of the Blood River Domain, making it immovable and well-hidden.

Even when the Flame Celestial Sovereign found the Treasure Paradise, this item had already fused with the Blood River Domain and couldn’t be removed, so it couldn’t be like the Mountain River State Diagram and be an independent world that could be carried around. Thus, it was wrong to say that the Flame Celestial Sovereign didn’t know the value of the Treasure Paradise. He just wasn’t capable of obtaining it.

If the Blood River Lord wanted the Treasure Paradise, he also needed to deal with the domain barrier.

But the Blood River Lord had an advantage over the Flame Celestial Sovereign: he could control the divine sword’s power.

With the power of the divine sword, he could dig the Qian Kun Bag out of the domain barrier and take it with him.

He was originally planning to wait until he had completely subdued the divine sword for this, but since all these sword spirits were attacking him, he didn’t mind borrowing their power for his own purpose. As an Immortal Platform Titan, he had experienced countless things and was exceptionally shrewd. While this was an unexpected development, he was able to pick the correct countermeasure almost immediately, showing nothing of the recklessness he had when it came to Tang Jie. In the end, Tang Jie had just been an excuse to trick the Flame Celestial Sovereign.

The Blood River Lord swung the Immeasurable Sword several times, each time opening a fissure. The crimson domain barrier erupted with flesh that reached through the fissures, those buds of meat quickly thickening into pillars, appearing like tentacles of blood.

These tentacles weren’t something to be taken lightly. A representative accidentally touched one, and that tentacle instantly seized the representative and dragged him through the fissure, merging with the domain barrier. That representative ended up being squeezed into a ball of flesh, and his entire body was consumed by the flesh wall, becoming a part of it. It was somewhat similar to Tang Jie’s Flesh Millstone.

A representative had been devoured without even getting the chance to counterattack. Everyone was stunned by the sight.

But the Blood River Lord continued to swing the sword, and outcrops of flesh continued to emerge from the fissures and flail about, clashing with the sword light.

The meat pillars were severed, and the sword lights were pulverized, but both sides kept refilling their ranks.

The Blood River Lord laughed and continued to swing the Immeasurable Sword, cutting through space.

The sword spirit was still resisting, but the power of the Immeasurable Sword alone was enough to cleave open the fabric of space.

As flesh clashed with sword and the Blood River Lord madly laughed, the Treasure Paradise started to loosen!

At that moment, the Blood River Lord felt like nothing could stop him.

At this moment, a sword light sliced at the Blood River Lord.

The Blood River Lord instinctively cut open a fissure, and a flesh tentacle emerged from the fissure to block the sword light.

But as they were about to collide, the sword light suddenly made a turn, moving around the fissure to directly attack the Blood River Lord.

The Blood River Lord hadn’t expected this sudden swerve, and he yelped as he attempted to retreat. But it was too late. Such was the power of the Yin Yang Division Sword that this one strike cut his body in half.

The Blood River Lord roared, and the severed part of his body instantly turned into blood and flew back to him, and his body was restored. Even so, the formidable power imbued in that strike made his complexion whiten, and disbelief appeared in his eyes. “How could it be?”

Since when could the sword spirits make feints?

But a moment later, another two sword lights cut at him.

The Blood River Lord was just about to dodge when those two sword lights disappeared. At the same time, a leaf was drifting through the air, floating past the sword energy and flesh tentacles to fall on the Blood River Lord’s neck.

Whoosh!

Sword light exploded.

The Blood River Lord’s head went flying from his body.

He howled, and his head turned to blood and returned. But as he was doing this, more than a hundred sword lights rushed out from nearby, instantly mincing up his Soul Transformation avatar.

“No!” the Blood River Lord frantically cried out.

His shattered body could turn back into blood and reform, and his undying trait allowed him to endure even the spirits of the divine sword, but the Immeasurable Sword fell from his grip and down among the representatives.

A representative flew over and grabbed the sword, saying in delight, “It’s mine!”

And then a crimson wave coiled around him, and though that representative yelled and roared, he couldn’t break free. His body was eaten away, and the Blood River Lord reformed.

The divine sword had consumed a significant amount of his blood energy, but consuming this representative had restored some.

But this infuriated the other representatives.

They were already sick of him because of his casual disregard for the rules and his abrupt entry, but his strength meant that nobody was willing to step forward and oppose him. When the Blood River Lord had been taking treasure, some people had already started to attack him, but everyone had been too focused on the treasures to concentrate on him. But now, the Blood River Lord had thrown everything into disarray, even tearing open spatial fissures and battling with the Blood River Domain’s barrier, and then consumed a representative to restore himself. Everyone was now completely enraged.

As they stared at the Blood River Lord, somebody shouted, “Kill him!”

Countless treasures and spell arts flew out, forming a raging torrent aimed at the Blood River Lord.

“Seeking death!” The Blood River Lord snorted, and his remaining avatars flew up to do battle with them.

It wasn’t that he was so arrogant as to challenge all the representatives while also taking on the divine sword’s attack. Rather, these representatives were both a source of trouble and a source of energy.

Compared to the representatives, the divine sword was ultimately more threatening, and he desperately needed more blood and flesh to heal himself. Since they had already attacked, he would just help himself. Originally, he had planned to leave some survivors out of respect for the Celestial Flame Pagoda, but since he was going to take the Treasure Paradise, he really didn’t care about explaining himself to the Celestial Flame Pagoda anymore.

His mind set on killing, he began to wave around the sword. The Blood Sea Divine Connection was unleashed, and with several dozen avatars using it, it truly became a raging Blood Sea.

One Soul Transformation avatar floated above the Blood Sea, howling, “All of you must die!”

A sword light attacked, and the Blood River Lord swung a sword to block it.

But to his surprise, this was another feint, and it curved around and struck him in the back, slicing him in two once more.

“Bastard!” the Blood River Lord angrily cursed. As he recovered, he began to wonder when these dumb sword spirits had suddenly become so cunning. As he was thinking this, a little black dot fell on his left shoulder.

It was so small that it was extremely hard to make out.

And as this black dot fell, at least thirteen sword lights followed it.

He was about to block them when that black dot suddenly moved downward, upon which those thirteen sword lights also moved down a little.

Whoosh! The Blood River Lord was cut up into more than a dozen pieces.

The black dot disappeared, and the Blood River Lord sensed a familiar energy.

“Tang Jie!” the Blood River Lord screeched.

He finally understood what was going on.

Tang Jie was in the Hall of Three Immortals!

He had been in the Hall of Three Immortals the entire time!
