Legend of Swordsman

Chapter 6366: Bewitching

He couldnʼt help but feel a surge of excitement welling up from deep within.

At that moment, Wei Jiuxian responded with a single word.

”Agreed!”

The cooperation was accepted.

Zhen Xian was even more thrilled. Immediately, he pulled his junior sister over to stand beside Wei Jiuxian, speaking righteously, ”Jiu Chen, the things youʼve done with Li Miao are utterly despicable. Today, we, the righteous cultivators, will offer you as a sacrifice for the sake of all beings under the heavens!”

”Hahaha!!!”

Jiu Chen, upon hearing this, couldnʼt contain his laughter.

He laughed at the otherʼs hypocrisy and at his ignorance.

”A cultivator from the Upper Realm, here in the Crimson Eyes Realm, ridding it of demons and upholding the Dao? If the common folk knew, theyʼd probably hang a plaque for you and offer their prayers, wouldnʼt they?”

Zhen Xian didnʼt flinch, sneering coldly, ”That would still be better than being a filthy scoundrel like you!”

Both of them, in truth, knew exactly what kind of people they were dealing with.

But winning was not merely a matter of virtue.

In fact, in terms of virtue, Jiu Chen might even have had a slight edge over Zhen Xian. ”You lot just want the ancient demonʼs body. Iʼve inherited the Godʼs Eye, and I know what youʼre planning. Stop putting on a show in front of me!” Wei Jiuxian said indifferently.

But his words were a sharp slap in Zhen Xianʼs face.

Fortunately, Zhen Xianʼs skin was thick enough. If his real name had been known, someone would surely have been pointing at him, cursing.

Jiu Chen shrugged, his expression cold as he said, ”Itʼs good that you know. Iʼm going to use the ancient demonʼs body to help Li Miao refine a second one. If any of you have a problem with that, feel free to attack me at any time. Iʼll take you all on!”

He had already convinced himself of his invincibility.

Zhen Xian gritted his teeth in fury. They wanted to take everything for themselves-what were they supposed to do?

It was sheer greed.

”To be honest, Iʼm not interested in ascending, nor am I interested in the ancient demonʼs body. If you want to take it, then take it!” Wei Jiuxian moved aside, pointing at the ancient demonʼs corpse, and continued, ”However, after you take it, you must leave the Crimson Eyes Realm and swear never to return, never to disturb these mortals again!”

In truth, whether they swore or not didnʼt matter. Without treasures, who would even want to come to the mortal realm?

So Wei Jiuxian wasnʼt worried about them going back on their word. He just wanted them gone.

Either die by his hand or leave voluntarily.

”Wei, my brother, you may not know the full significance of the ancient demonʼs body. It is...” Zhen Xian hurriedly tried to persuade him.

He didnʼt want Wei Jiuxian to step back now. Just a moment ago, they had agreed to cooperate -why stop the fight now?

If Wei Jiuxian withdrew, it would be impossible for him to split anything with Jiu Chen peacefully.

At this point, Jiu Chenʼs life level was already five thousand times that of an ordinary Special Life Form. How could Zhen Xian stand a chance?

He had to drag Wei Jiuxian into the fight.

Seeing that Wei Jiuxian remained unmoved, Zhen Xian realized this fool truly didnʼt care about the ancient demonʼs body. So, he attempted to lure him in with the Crimson Eyes Realm:

”Wei, my brother, think carefully. Once Jiu Chen and I start fighting, Iʼll surely perish. Afterward, it will be just you. Do you really believe Jiu Chen will keep his promise then?”

Jiu Chen glanced briefly at Mangshan County City in the distance, where the Ghost Emperor had already successfully formed. Thanks to Li Miao using the Empressʼs Pure Body, all impurities had been cleansed from the Ghost Emperor, allowing for a swift fusion.

The Blood Condensation Array had also entered its second phase.

He calmly spoke up, ”Wei Jiuxian, Iʼll admit, I have some respect for you. So, Iʼll give you this opportunity. I promise that once I help Li Miao refine his body, I will ascend immediately. After that, I wonʼt interfere with anything you do in this world!”

Initially, the plan was to kill these people; there was no need to keep them around.

However, the Ghost Emperor had condensed too quickly, so there was no need for their souls anymore.

Another reason was to leave a mark for Li Miao, motivating him to strive for greatness. Wei Jiuxian was, after all, Li Miaoʼs inner demon.

When the critical moment arrived, allowing Li Miao to descend might yield unexpected results.

Immortal Jiu Chen, known for his strategic prowess, took one step, considering nine.

At this moment, his words were intended to provoke Zhen Xian and see him lose his

composure.

A powerful figure from the upper realm, descending to the lower realm, being schemed against by a group of mortals-whether soft or hard approaches-was unable to defeat them.

This was the truly amusing part.

When Wei Jiuxian heard Jiu Chenʼs words, he paid no attention to Zhen Xian and only replied

with a single word, ”Fine!”

This left Zhen Xian in an awkward position.

Anger, unwillingness, humiliation!

He stood there, afraid to move, afraid to think.

Because he couldnʼt defeat Jiu Chen.

But he was a strong figure from the upper realm, at the pinnacle of the Yuan Spirit stage.

Now, he was being ridiculed by a group of mortals.

”Good, very good!” Zhen Xian laughed in embarrassment. He pointed at Wei Jiuxian and Jiu Chen, enunciating each word, ”You two are ruthless. Since youʼve forced me into this, then we shall all perish together!”

As he finished speaking, he took out a dark green token. A powerful surge of thought power emanated from it, though the material was quite special. Zhen Xian gently squeezed, and the token shattered instantly.

The powerful surge of thought power dispersed along with it.

Buzz!

In the next moment, the Red Eyes Realm began to tremble.

Space quaked constantly, and even the heavenly laws of this world began to shudder. A

powerful pressure forced the heavenly laws to bow.

At that moment, the strength of Zhen Xian and Fu Qing surged dramatically.

Even Jiu Chenʼs aura was rising.

His life force was five thousand times stronger, and if not for the suppression of the heavenly

laws, he would have already broken through to the Yuan Spirit stage.

Now, with the suppression lifted, he instantly reached the pinnacle of the Yuan Spirit stage.

His aura was even stronger than that of Zhen Xian and Fu Qing.

Only Wei Jiuxianʼs aura remained unchanged.

”Is this your trump card?” Wei Jiuxian observed everything, seemingly having anticipated it,

and said indifferently, ”Lifting the suppression of the heavenly laws to restore your

cultivation?”

Zhen Xian let out a cold chuckle, though a bitter smile lingered on his face.

”I donʼt need to make a move. Youʼll soon understand!”

The heavens and earth trembled.

In the shattered sky, a massive crack appeared.

An overwhelming aura of invincibility radiated from within, making it impossible for anyone

to breathe.

”Haha, Iʼve been waiting for you!” Jiu Chen was excited.

He had long known about Zhen Xianʼs backup plan, which was nothing more than summoning

a powerful figure from the upper realm.

Those transcendent beings in the Great Perfection stage were not afraid of this small realmʼs

heavenly laws.

Therefore, their cultivation would not be suppressed.

This gave Jiu Chen the opportunity to capture a Great Perfection cultivator alive.

He immediately flew back to Mangshan City, retrieved the blood-red altar, and shouted,

”Come forth, Temple of Divine Fire!”

...

”Hmm?”

Everyone stared at him like he was a fool.

The Temple of Divine Fire did not appear.

The blood-red altar also shattered in that moment.

”How could this be?” Jiu Chen was shocked!

The altar crumbled, and its final essence of blood had been absorbed by the Blood Condensing

Formation.

Nothing was left, not even the aura of his true body.

At this moment, he was utterly bewildered.

In the void.

Jian Wushuang grasped Jiu Chenʼs true body, observing everything with a faint smile.

After watching for so long, he had finally understood their plans.

Unfortunately, they had encountered him.

Otherwise, Jiu Chen and Li Miao could indeed have achieved great things.

In the Red Eyes Realm, they were truly being stifled.

Right now, Jian Wushuang didnʼt plan to reveal himself because the being in the crack had yet

to emerge.

True powerhouses were always the last to take the stage.

Revealing himself too early wouldnʼt have the desired effect.

Besides, the Blood Condensing Formation had not yet finished forming a physical body.

Once the physical body had condensed, it wouldnʼt be too late to swoop in and take the spoils.
