Aspiring to the Immortal Path

Tang Jie grabbed the Immeasurable Sword and threw it at the last Soul Transformation avatar without a second glance. "Keep going."

The Blood River Lord almost threw up blood in rage.

But no matter how much of a hot potato the Immeasurable Sword was, only by refining it could he truly control the Treasure Paradise.

After taking the Immeasurable Sword, the last Soul Transformation avatar had no choice but to leave the battlefield.

This made the tables rapidly turn.

The behemoth was being held down by the original body, and the Blood River Lord had only ten Heart Demon avatars left, half of his original strength.

The representatives had also suffered heavy losses, losing nearly half their number, including Reverend Xuan Gui, and falling from thirty-some to less than twenty. These people weren't anything to be afraid of. The real problem was that Tang Jie's strength was still intact, and the bean soldiers were still around, and the Treasure Cosmos Formation was also exerting a huge pressure on the Blood River Lord.

Tang Jie had once more tipped the balance in his favor. The Blood River Lord yelled, "It's still not over!"

He waved a finger, and countless Blood Fiends suddenly changed directions and charged at the Blood River Behemoth.

The Blood River Behemoth saw all the Blood Fiends rushing at it and opened its mouth, sucking them all in like a black hole.

After eating its fill, the Blood River Behemoth grew stronger again, and with a frenzied roar, it stomped a foot down. As it fell upon the distant Drifting Peak, it flattened the entire mountain.

This terrifying strength made even the original body grimace, and then he saw the behemoth sweep its arm at him.

The axe of Mother Cloud Essence Metal hacked into the beast's arm, and as blood splashed, Tang Jie was sent flying.

The Blood River Behemoth's strength was so fierce that Tang Jie guessed that he was no match for it unless he reached greater attainment in the Diamond Body.

But this didn't mean he had no way to deal with it.

The distant avatar snorted and threw out several formation diagrams.

The first diagram fell on his original body, and there was a flash of red as his body surged with blood energy. The behemoth was swiping a claw at him when the four arms growing out of the original body's back suddenly flew out and caught the claw, stopping it cold. At the same time, the Mother Cloud Essence Metal axe and the Desolate Heavens Halberd slammed into the behemoth's chest, and this savage blow made the behemoth cry out in pain.

Furiously roaring, it swung a claw at the original body, seeking to tear open his stomach. At this time, the second formation diagram fell upon the original body, and his body flashed golden.

The sharp claws that could even tear through the fabric of space chafed against that light golden skin in a spray of sparks, but all it left was a shallow wound, startling the behemoth.

The original body chuckled. "Having a good time? It's about time I let you have a taste of my fist… Devil Crushing Fist!"

A massive, steely fist swung upward, striking the Blood River Behemoth in the chin.

Everyone saw that seemingly invincible Blood River Behemoth being struck by a fist and sent skyward.

It roared and flailed its limbs, but it couldn't stop itself from flying upward, and only when it struck the Treasure Paradise's domain barrier with an impressive shockwave did it finally start falling back down.

It was so massive that, even at this great distance, everyone could clearly see that its jaw had been smashed and half of its head had caved in.

This shocking sight left everyone dumbfounded.

Even so, this punch hadn't been able to kill this behemoth with its immense life force, though it did manage to thoroughly enrage it.

"Awooo!" It let out an enraged howl, its howl becoming a mighty gale that pushed even Tang Jie's original body back.

The Blood River Lord's eyes brightened. "That was his full-power attack. He has no more strength now. Kill him, quickly!"

The Blood River Lord's eyes were extremely sharp.

But alas, he was still wrong.

The third formation diagram fell upon the original body, engulfing him in a healing light.

Vitality pumped into his body, and the original body's energy rapidly recovered. He chuckled and said, "This is just the beginning!"

He immediately rushed up to the behemoth, taking on the beast's claw directly as he roared, "Open up!"

The Mother Cloud Essence Metal axe thunderously swung at the behemoth's head, while the original body took the behemoth's claw in return, and there was a series of bangs as the two traded blows.

Even though he was empowered by the formations, the original body still wasn't stronger than the behemoth. In terms of strength, only an eighty-meter-tall Diamond Body could contend against it.

Although Tang Jie was currently a towering figure, his real strength was that of a twenty-meter-tall giant, far from an eighty-meter-tall one. Without the Herding Yang Pearl and the formations, he would have never been able to fight back.

Even so, he still attacked for all he was worth, like a mad dog.

He didn't have the strength, but he had other tricks.

He had formation diagrams!

Another three formation diagrams came down, this time on the behemoth.

As each one came down, the behemoth's strength, vitality, and reaction speed weakened.

He had six arms!

He could return three punches for each claw.

He had weapons!

The damage dealt by the Mother Cloud Essence Metal axe and the Desolate Heavens Halberd could make up for his lack of strength.

He even had three heads, the left and right ones able to bite at the behemoth and return three bites for every one he received.

Through these various factors, he was able to shrink the gap, little by little. Blood gushed from both of them, and as they rolled about, mountain after mountain was flattened.

The behemoth wasn't able to win, so the Blood River Lord's situation instantly turned dire.

All of the representatives crazily attacked the Blood River Lord, everyone putting in everything they had, carpeting the sky in their strongest spell arts and art relics.

Tang Jie used another two formation diagrams.

One was a Frost Formation to freeze the Blood Sea and make it more difficult for the Blood River Lord to cast spell arts, and also make them weaker. The other was a Clear Skies Formation that would absorb the essence of the Blood Sea, working together with the Flesh Millstone to help him collect blood gems.

The Blood River Lord grew frantic.

A Blood River avatar suddenly charged at Tang Jie.

Tang Jie sharply sensed that something was wrong and shouted, "Retreat!"

He activated the Chaoswind Step and appeared on the other side.

At the same time, the Blood River avatar arrived where Tang Jie had been and exploded.

Heart Demon self-detonation!

The Blood River Lord had countless avatars and the undying attribute, so one of his strongest moves was actually avatar self-detonation.

This explosion was on par with Tang Jie's Earthfire Burst Formation, each drop of essence blood erupting into pure energy, sweeping through the area with supreme lethality.

Even though everyone was rather scattered about because they were battling in the air, the explosion's range was so vast that it still managed to catch eight representatives. Four of them died on the spot, and while Hei Yan, Qing Lian, Shui Yao, and Na Shan had been able to retreat a little thanks to Tang Jie's warning, they were still a little slow, though at least they hadn't been in the heart of the explosion. Even so, their wounds were rather serious, with Qing Lian's being the worst, this explosion almost depriving him of all his combat power. Na Shan was in the best condition, not because he was the farthest, but because he had the strongest constitution.

Besides that, two bean soldier units were caught up in the Blood Sea and pulverized in a vortex.

Tang Dou was so grief-stricken that he almost cried.

The remaining bean soldiers were also about to hit their limit, so Yiyi hastily took them back. She counted them up and found to her great sorrow that they had lost a third of the beans.

The Blood River Lord's self-detonation had killed four representatives, heavily injured one, and forced the bean soldiers to withdraw, so the tables turned again. But he knew that he couldn't use this move again, so he didn't use it again, instead using the opportunity to sacrifice another one of his Heart Demon avatars to the Immeasurable Sword.

The Blood River Lord now had eight avatars left.

But the Blood River Lord didn't care. He was at the final moments of refining the sword spirit, so no matter what, he had to endure. Failure was not acceptable!

The Immeasurable Sword tore open another spatial fissure.

The Blood River Lord opened another Blood River passage.

A Blood River passage opened with only one Heart Demon avatar naturally couldn't call over an existence like the Blood River Behemoth, but the Blood River Lord was very confident in his new reinforcements.

War drums began to thunder and horns began to blare, a somber and grim energy instantly filling the air.

The blood waves churned as soldiers wearing crimson armor and wielding spears emerged, much more majestic and impressive than the bean army.

Wave after wave of soldiers appeared, leaving everyone stunned.

Where had this army come from?

Na Shan paled in shock.

He stared at that army and cried out in anger and indignation, "Hemos! You refined my people into your soldiers!"

These soldiers had been refined from the corpses of Hemos!

The Blood River Lord laughed, "As I said, since you believe in me, you should offer your body and soul to me! I made these one hundred thousand Bloodguards while I was bored, and I didn't intend to use them for battle, only to enrich this Treasure Paradise a little once I made it my own. Since all of you are so stubborn and stupid, daring to oppose me, you can't blame me for using them as a vanguard to pacify you. Blood River General, come out! Lead my soldiers and exterminate them!"

As he yelled, the Blood Sea churned, and a general slowly emerged.

This general had a crimson battle robe, a suit of armor that had been through many battles, a red-tasseled helmet, and warboots decorated with cloud patterns. His head was concealed beneath his helmet, but one could see blood flowing through the openings in his armor, as if this armor didn't cover a person, but an ocean.

He held a spear made from the spine of a dragon, which writhed in his hand like a snake.

For some reason, Tang Jie found this Blood River General to be a little familiar.
