Chapter 415: The Twenty-Fourth Facet of the World of Immortals (1/2)

Fear finally broke through the calm mask of the divine in Lu Yun’s grasp.

Toss him into the Blood Sea?

The last stretch of the Ingress Path arched right above the Blood Sea, which painted the sky with crimson. There was no telling what would happen if a cultivator fell in.

Many had noticed by now that they weren’t here with their real bodies, but as replicas that were identical to their true selves. Dying here would only get them eliminated. Nevertheless, they still deeply dreaded the Blood Sea.

The Ingress Path was incomparably wide, but all the cultivators clustered near the center and stayed far, far away from the crimson waters on the sides. The rippling waves and monsters’ roars were a constant assault on their nerves.

“No, you can’t do that...“ Mad struggles ensued as the divine sought to gain his freedom from Lu Yun’s hand.

“The successor of that sword has come as well, haven’t they?” Lu Yun transmitted suddenly.

Color drained from the divine’s face after a stunned pause.

Swoosh!

Lu Yun seized the opening and hurled his opponent toward the crimson sea.

Bam!

A tremor passed through the air as an invisible barrier shattered and the divine cultivator vanished into the vast sea of blood.

“There’s a barrier between the Blood Sea and Ingress Path!” exclaimed a monster spirit. “I tried to throw a human cultivator into the Blood Sea earlier, but I failed. How powerful is Qing Yu’s Sidekick to break the barrier??”

The speaker was an enormous gorilla more than forty meters tall with strong, thick arms. He could only be described as a towering behemoth.

Previously, a human cultivator had unwisely attempted to make it their mount and been hurled into the sea for their troubles. However, there existed a tremendous barrier between the sea and the path, and the cultivator had only broken every bone in their body instead of falling into the waters.

Yet Lu Yun had smashed the barrier from thousands of kilometers away and lobbed the divine into the sea.

……

Destiny City.

Within a great manor, a black-clad man’s eyes flew open, fear coursing through them. Crimson light then burst forth from his body, churning him to pieces.

However, none were the wiser since everyone’s attentions were on the images projected by the Sovereign Ranking.

……

“Those divines holding the longswords...” Qing Han gave Lu Yun a look of dread.

“That’s right, it’s him.” Lu Yun nodded gravely. “The sword has found its new master, and the two have emerged in the world.”

The Sword of Chaos embodied the will of the ancient divine court. It hadn’t emerged to protect the descendents of the ancient divine court, but to reestablish its rule!

That would… hardly be ideal.

The wielder of the Sword of Chaos had intervened twice at Dusk. First to sever the road the long-haired black monsters walked, then a second time to rescue Scarlet Ape from Lu Yun.

“No wonder the curse in the Skandha Extinction Tomb has never been able to fully destroy the divine race, and they’re able to revitalize themselves again and again. The Sword of Chaos has been guarding the last of their fortunes.

“Since the successor has come, however, I’ll find them...” Lu Yun narrowed his eyes.

He then took a step forward and threw a punch, blasting a black figure out from the air. This was the second divine who’d come to assassinate Qing Han. His goal was simple: Kill with a single move!
