Chapter 413: Chapter 233: Forced onto Jiushan, Demon Ancestor Descends onto the World_2

At this moment, even if they were to strike with full force, they probably wouldn’t be able to kill the Blood River Ancestor—after all, no matter how powerful the Mountain and River Seal is, it cannot compare to the Sun and Moon Clock in the Jiushan Realm.

Since that is the case, it would be an even greater loss to let Zhang continue and possibly get injured.

…

Zheng Fa and the others frowned as they looked at the Blood River Ancestor.

A cold sneer still hung on the face of the Blood River Ancestor.

“How about we go and summon from the Western Heaven… Oh, Master Cheng Kong?”

Seeing him smiling so smugly, Zheng Fa spoke up.

As expected, the smile on the Blood River Ancestor’s face stiffened slightly.

There seemed to be some fear.

“I’ll go and summon him!”

If anyone wanted to kill the Blood River Ancestor most, aside from Zheng whom Fa did not know, it would definitely be Master Pang in the Jiushan Realm now!

Hearing him say this, the Blood River Ancestor’s face turned even angrier, staring at Master Pang as if committing his appearance to memory.

It was clear—he truly dreaded Master Cheng Kong, and now even seemed to be in a state of panicked rage.

“Wait!”

As Master Pang was about to send a Communication Talisman, Zheng Fa suddenly raised his hand, stopping Master Pang’s motion.

Master Pang turned his head, looking at Zheng Fa with a puzzled expression.

“Do you… really wish for Jiang Chengkong to come?”

Zheng Fa suddenly asked the Blood River Ancestor.

Everyone looked at each other, puzzled by Zheng Fa’s question.

But the Blood River Ancestor’s face had become slightly stiff.

“What are you talking about?”

He finally spoke, seemingly unable to understand Zheng Fa’s words.

Zheng Fa nodded affirmatively, “So, this flying sword… is it your prison? The one who fought against us just now, was it not you, but the spiritual wisdom of this flying sword?”

“…”

Zhang and the others were startled, their gazes towards the Blood River Ancestor became doubtful.

They thought about it and then understood—

Whether or not the Blood River Ancestor truly feared Jiang Chengkong, such an obvious change in expression was indeed too deliberate.

After all, the Blood River Ancestor was a Divinity Transformation cultivator, having lived for over ten thousand years.

Such impatience…

Really shouldn’t be the case.

But this was not to say that Zhang and the others couldn’t see through the oddity… It was just, who could have thought that the Blood River Ancestor’s Lifebound Flying Sword had developed such a grudge against him, and had become his own prison?

If this wasn’t said by Zheng Fa, they would never believe it.

But looking at the Blood River Ancestor’s mix of shock, anger, and confused gaze, they had no choice but to believe that Zheng Fa was indeed right.

“How… did you find out?”

Zheng Fa did not explain. When he cast the Positive and Negative Five Elements Divine Light just now, he felt something unprecedented; this Lifebound Flying Sword seemed to have its own will…

It’s expected for a Spiritual Treasure to have a will.

But the will of this Lifebound Flying Sword was different from that of the Blood River Ancestor, and even seemed to be opposing each other.

This insight, if not for Zheng Fa having the Positive and Negative Five Elements Divine Light, would not be comprehended by anyone below the Divinity Transformation.

The Blood River Ancestor looked at Zheng Fa, his expression fluctuating.

Zheng Fa’s thoughts raced like lightning in his mind.

He recalled many things…

Previously, they knew that the Lifebound Spiritual Treasure of a cultivator is, to some extent, an artificial intelligence constructed from the circuit of Spiritual Energy.

Through Zhang’s research on the Jiushan Ancestor, they could say this theory was confirmed.

But conversely—this is Tianhe Method.

Whether Demon Sect’s Skills are the same still remains a question.

Moreover, the Blood River Ancestor has lost another flying sword; is his Spiritual Energy circuit still intact?

Artificial intelligence might even risk becoming artificially foolish…

Zhang’s eyebrows furrowed, and her Void Spirit Eye lit up as she looked towards the flying sword.

After a while, she gave Zheng Fa a nod, clearly, this flying sword and their calculations were similar—that is, it had a rich Spiritual Energy circuit capable of forming intelligence.

The Blood River Ancestor’s expression also recovered from the shock, looking at Zheng Fa with an affirmative tone: “I’ve always wondered why the Great Freedom Demon Ancestor decreed to lure you into our ranks…”

“Now I understand.”

In his tone, there was not a trace of fear, rather he was evaluating Zheng Fa, seeming to look down from above.

The Great Freedom Demon Ancestor cares about himself?

This guy is on a path to his own demise!

Although Zheng Fa also did not know why the Great Freedom Demon Ancestor valued him, he would avoid even the more reputable Supreme Dao, let alone the Great Freedom Demon Ancestor, whom he wanted nothing to do with.

Then they heard the Blood River Ancestor speak:

“Now that you’ve seen through… what can you do to me now?”

The expressions on Master Pang and others became very ugly.

Now it was clear.

Not only did the Blood River Ancestor not fear death, he might even be eager for it…

“So, you enter this flying sword with your Divine Sense involuntarily…”

Zheng Fa realized.

“Heh, if it wasn’t for the Quiet Bamboo wearing down my Rebirth Sword, would I have fallen into this trap?”

Clearly, the Blood River Ancestor truly did not want to inhabit this flying sword.

Nor did he wish to stay in the Jiushan Realm…

“…So if this flying sword is damaged, you can escape the bind?”

Zheng Fa asked again.

The Blood River Ancestor didn’t respond.

But it was almost equivalent to an admission.

Zheng Fa nodded, “So you think we have no way with you, and if Master Cheng Kong destroys this flying sword, you would be able to escape our control…”

The Blood River Ancestor looked at Zheng Fa, his eyes calm but mixed with a hint of mockery.

The expressions on Master Pang and the others were very ugly.

Now, it was problematic whether they killed this scoundrel or not.

Truly a hot potato.

“Blood River Master,” Zheng Fa’s tone suddenly became very polite, “Actually, I am quite curious about something. Does the Divinity Transformation method of the Great Freedom Demon Sect follow the Dharma Body lineage?”

“You have some insight.”

The expression on the Blood River Ancestor relaxed, even carrying a hint of a smile.

“Yes, according to my understanding of the Great Freedom Demon Sect, even after reaching Divinity Transformation, you cannot escape the control of the Demon Ancestor… right.”
