Bloodline Fusion!
Ye Xuan began using the Mad Demon Bloodline to bolster the Undying Bloodline, but he quickly realised it was no easy task!
The Mad Demon Bloodline had grown far stronger than the Undying Bloodline by now—so much so that it refused to fuse with it, or worse, it tried to outright devour it!
This left him in a bit of an awkward spot!
But Ye Xuan wasn’t one to give up!
After all, he was the master here!
Under his careful control, the Mad Demon Bloodline and Undying Bloodline gradually began to merge, of course, not entirely—he only used a tiny fraction of the Mad Demon Bloodline to fuse with the Undying Bloodline!
Even so, the effect was downright terrifying!
The Undying Bloodline’s aura started surging wildly!
Meanwhile, he kept the Mad Demon Bloodline suppressed, if he didn’t, the Undying Bloodline wouldn’t even have a chance to activate!
Though both were his bloodline powers, the Mad Demon Bloodline was incredibly domineering.
If he hadn’t been suppressing it all this time, the Undying Bloodline would’ve long been swallowed whole!
The fact that the Undying Bloodline could even coexist in his body had been ticking off the Mad Demon Bloodline for ages!
And so, time ticked by bit by bit!
Several months later, a terrifying bloodline aura suddenly erupted from Ye Xuan as he sat cross-legged!
*Boom!*
As this bloodline aura emerged, the space within the small tower began to tremble.
After a long while, a red glow enveloped Ye Xuan’s body.
The Undying Bloodline!
At that moment, Ye Xuan’s eyes snapped open, the blood-red hue fading from them.
Xuwang suddenly appeared before him, and a slight smirk tugged at Ye Xuan’s lips.
Xuwang asked, “Did it improve?”
Ye Xuan nodded, opening his palm and gently pressing down, with that gesture, his body returned to normal.
The Undying Bloodline!
Ye Xuan chuckled lightly, “With this boost to the Undying Bloodline, my body’s healing speed is going to skyrocket from now on!”
Xuwang said, “Congratulations!”
Ye Xuan laughed heartily, truth be told, he was now curious about the Undying Emperor Clan, with his Undying Bloodline breaking through, he wondered if theirs had changed too!
He’d have to swing by and check sometime!
As if struck by a thought, Ye Xuan opened his palm, and two storage rings appeared—they were the ones he’d taken from Wandao Ming and Fan Tian!
Ye Xuan glanced inside, the two rings combined held less than 200,000 Infinite Divine Crystals!
Less than 200,000 total!
Ye Xuan frowned slightly, were they really that poor?
Besides that, there were some divine items, but they weren’t much use to him, after all, he had the Qingxuan Sword, which could attack and defend—what divine item could compare?
Ye Xuan handed one of the rings to Xuwang, “This one’s got 100,000 Infinite Divine Crystals, spend it wisely, alright?”
Xuwang didn’t refuse, taking the ring, then looked at Ye Xuan, “Want to spar?”
Ye Xuan grinned, “I was just thinking the same!”
The two left the small tower and arrived in an unknown, mysterious stretch of space-time.
Xuwang eyed Ye Xuan, “No Qingxuan Sword!”
Ye Xuan laughed, “Of course!”
He opened his palm, and an ordinary sword appeared, with a light tap of his toes, he vanished from his spot!
*Slash!*
A wisp of sword light flashed toward Xuwang’s brow.
Xuwang’s form suddenly turned illusory, Ye Xuan’s eyes narrowed, and he spun around, slashing downward.
*Boom!*
A burst of sword light shattered, and both of them stumbled back!
As they retreated, countless flying swords erupted from all directions, in an instant, the mysterious space-time was crisscrossed with flying blades, impossible to tell whose was whose.
The field echoed with dense tearing sounds!
Flying swords!
Both were unleashing flying swords, each blade tearing through everything in its path!
Far from dwindling, the number of swords multiplied, in no time, the space was filled with at least hundreds of thousands of them!
Each controlled at least 200,000 flying swords!
No doubt about it, this was a massive drain on their mental energy! And every sword was lethal— one slip, and their bodies could be shredded!
It was a game of heart-pounding stakes!
Just then, both stopped at the same time, exchanged a glance, and in an instant, all the flying swords vanished!
Neither side’s swords could overpower the other!
At that moment, Xuwang closed her eyes, charging forward, her body froze mid-step, and in the next instant, her soul left her flesh, turning into a sword light slashing toward Ye Xuan.
Ye Xuan stepped forward, and a wave of sword light enveloped the space before him!
Fangcun Sword Domain!
As Xuwang’s soul rushed into the Fangcun Sword Domain, the entire domain turned illusory, then began disintegrating inch by inch!
Soon, Ye Xuan’s Fangcun Sword Domain shattered, and a sword streaked toward his brow like thunder.
Blindingly fast!
Ye Xuan reacted swiftly, the moment the domain broke, he sidestepped, dodging by a hair’s breadth, but just then, Xuwang swept her sword horizontally.
*Slash!*
A burst of sword light aimed straight for Ye Xuan’s throat!
If this hit, his head would be gone!
But as the sword reached his throat, another blade blocked it!
*Boom!*
A burst of sword light shattered, and Ye Xuan was knocked back hundreds of zhang, before he could stop, another sword thrust came!
Ye Xuan’s expression remained calm, this time, he didn’t retreat—instead, he thrust his sword forward.
Needle versus needle!
*Boom!*
The moment the swords clashed, the surrounding space-time annihilated, countless sword qi spraying outward, each streak capable of tearing this cosmic space apart!
Just then, both their forms turned illusory, and in an instant, two streaks of sword light erupted like fireworks in the field!
In a flash, space-time within hundreds of thousands of li was wiped out!
When Ye Xuan stopped, Xuwang appeared above him, a sword light slashing straight down.
*Sword Draw Determines Life and Death*!
As this sword descended, Ye Xuan’s expression grew serious!
He’d always used *Sword Draw Determines Life and Death* on others, never facing its power head-on like this, and now he realised—his old man really had some chops!
This sword was pretty damn impressive!
Ye Xuan didn’t overthink it, he advanced instead of retreating, drawing his own sword in a slash.
Also *Sword Draw Determines Life and Death*!
As the two swords met, space-time within millions of li turned pitch black!
The field fell silent!
After about a quarter-hour, Ye Xuan and Xuwang left that space, both bearing sword wounds, especially Xuwang, her body covered in cuts, some exposing more than intended.
Xuwang noticed and grew visibly awkward.
Ye Xuan suddenly laughed, “Your master’s a gentleman, I won’t look at what I shouldn’t, haha!”
Xuwang: “…”
Then, Ye Xuan stepped forward, draping a coat over Xuwang, “You should’ve gained a lot from that fight, take some time to cultivate in the tower, if you need anything, just let me know!”
Xuwang nodded, “Alright!”
With that, she returned to the tower.
Ye Xuan turned to look nearby, where space-time split open, and Adaoling appeared.
Adaoling glanced around, then smiled, “Sparring with someone just now?”
Ye Xuan nodded.
Adaoling gave him a deep look—clearly, Ye Xuan had another Limitless Realm ally by his side!
Ye Xuan suddenly grinned, “Sister Ling, I got Fan Tian and Wandao Ming’s storage rings earlier, but they only had 200,000 Infinite Divine Crystals total… why so little?”
Adaoling said gravely, “You think 200,000 Infinite Divine Crystals is *little*?”
Ye Xuan frowned, “Isn’t it?”
Adaoling rolled her eyes, “Of course it’s a lot! Do you know my life savings barely amount to a few tens of thousands…”
She paused, as if remembering something, then added, “When I gave you 10,000 Infinite Divine Crystals before, did you think I was being stingy?”
Ye Xuan gave an awkward smile, “A little, yeah!”
Adaoling shook her head with a laugh, “You ungrateful brat! Let me tell you, Infinite Divine Crystals are insanely rare, even we have to risk our lives to get them!”
Ye Xuan grew curious, “Even Limitless Realm powerhouses have to risk their lives for them?”
Adaoling nodded, “Remember when I asked for your help earlier?”
Ye Xuan nodded, “Because of the Infinite Divine Crystals?”
Adaoling smiled, “Yep! This time, I’m taking you somewhere—an otherworld taboo zone, a place even we might die in!”
Ye Xuan’s curiosity piqued, “Where?”
Adaoling said softly, “The Heavenly Tomb!”
Ye Xuan frowned, “The Heavenly Tomb? What’s that?”
Adaoling grinned, “A weird place, the only spot where Infinite Divine Crystals can be found! They say Shepherd God vanished from there back in the day, not sure if it’s true, but I think it is! It’s the one place in the otherworld we haven’t fully explored!”
She paused, then continued, “The Heavenly Tomb used to churn out tons of Infinite Divine Crystals every year, but lately, for some reason, they’re drying up… if this keeps up, us Limitless Realm folks will hit an awkward wall—no way to keep cultivating! You probably know, after reaching the Limitless Realm, regular mystic energy’s useless to us, only stuff like Infinite Divine Crystals can push us further! So, I’ve teamed up with some other Limitless Realm powerhouses—we’re grouping up to check out this place, see what secrets it’s hiding!”
Ye Xuan got it!
The Heavenly Tomb!
He hesitated, then said, “I’m not really keen on going yet!”
Adaoling blinked, “Why not?”
Ye Xuan said seriously, “I just got invincible—I don’t want to lose that feeling so soon!”
Adaoling’s expression froze, “…”
