Chaotic Sword God

The warfare in the Peace region lasted for half a year. Without the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King, the Scarlet Blood Domain struggled to hold off the Jade Centre Domain and the Grand Heaven Domain.

But despite that, the Scarlet Blood Domain did not retreat from the Peace region so easily either. In the end, they began to withdraw their forces, concentrating all of their strength on defending a single city, engaging the Grand Heaven Domain and the Jade Centre Domain in a lengthy stalemate through the defences of formations.

In short, after half a year of fighting, it finally came to a close. Everything gradually settled down.

Life Emperor city had now become the Scarlet Blood Domain's final stronghold in the Peace region.

The Life Emperor was already dead, having been slain by the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King, while the entire Life Emperor city had fallen under the control of the Scarlet Blood Domain.

Over Life Emperor city was a blood-red barrier, encasing the entire place.

This was an extremely powerful formation from the Scarlet Blood Domain. Under the combined efforts from all their experts, the formation's might was pushed to the limit, stopping all the experts from the Jade Centre Domain and the Grand Heaven Domain.

Several divine halls hovered outside Life Emperor city, surrounding the place. Many experts from the Jade Centre Domain and Grand Heaven Domain gathered in each divine hall. There were even some experts from the Peace region forcefully enlisted to participate.

At this moment, over thirty Primordial realm experts gathered in an imposing hall in Life Emperor city. Their strength varied, where the weakest were only First Heavenly Layer Infinite Primes, while the strongest was at the Ninth Heavenly Layer.

However, more than half of them possessed disorderly presences with their faces a sickly white. Clearly, they were all injured.

Half of these Primordial realm experts originated from the Scarlet Blood Domain, while the remaining half belonged to the imperial cities of the Peace region.

The Peace region also possessed some Infinite Primes. Apart from the nine imperial cities and the three merchant unions, there were many powerful organisations with Primordial realm experts.

"Why hasn't the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King appeared yet? If he still doesn't appear, then our operation this time will end in complete failure," a Primordial realm expert from the Scarlet Blood Domain said sternly. His expression was ugly as he looked towards the leading old man, a Ninth Heavenly Layer Infinite Prime.

At this moment, the Ninth Heavenly Layer old man's face was sunken. He said sternly, "I've contacted the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King numerous times, but I haven't received any reply. I don't know where he is right now either."

"Hmph. The three rulers are currently all out at sea. The strength in the mainland is suffering from a severe vacuum. We've only become the strongest because of the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King. This was all planned by the Blood Slaughter ruler. It would be a perfect opportunity for us to conquer the Peace region. But now, because of the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King, all of our efforts have almost gone to waste. The Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King has ruined the ruler's plans," said an elder of the Scarlet Blood Domain below grimly. His eyes were filled with undisguised fury.

The strongest Primordial realm expert seated there snorted coldly. "Regardless, this is all the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King's fault. Because of him, not only has the ruler's plan failed, but we've even suffered heavy losses too. Once the ruler returns, he'll get his punishment."

"But what do we do now, demonic elder?" one of the local Infinite Primes looked towards the old man and asked with worry.

"What else can we do? We hold on! We hold on until the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King appears or until the ruler returns. Since our Scarlet Blood Domain has already taken this step, we can't withdraw from here so easily."

……

…

At this moment, in an extremely remote and ancient mountain range within the Scarlet Blood Domain, a middle-aged man sat on a colossal boulder with his eyes shut. The power of laws circulated around him as he used the special characteristics of his laws to heal.

The middle-aged man was one of the nine heavenly kings, the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King.

But right now, he had lost all of his previous might. Not only were his clothes dyed red, who knew where the crown on his head had gone too. His long hair draped down on his shoulders messily.

Spurt! Suddenly, the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King who was tending to his injuries shuddered and blood sprayed from his mouth. His face was pale and extremely haggard.

"What powerful Laws of the Sword. Just the wisp of sword Qi lingering in my body is so powerful, such that I can't destroy it in a short amount of time." The Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King opened his eyes slowly. He seemed extremely feeble, but he was grim.

In a daze, he seemed to think of something as deep fear appeared in his eyes. "I never thought that the Wood Spirits World would produce a fourth ruler. But who exactly is he? Why do I know nothing about him at all? It's as if he appeared out of nowhere."

"It's just absolutely horrible that he's actually taken my ancestral imprint. That's an ancestral imprint. Without the ancestral imprint, how am I any different from a regular Ninth Heavenly Layer Infinite Prime?"

As soon as he thought of his lost ancestral imprint, the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King's face became rather twisted. He refused to accept this.

Even though he had escaped with his life, he did not dare to appear before anyone right now. His injuries were very heavy, so heavy that he struggled to hide it. It was very easy for people to tell at first glance.

Once others learned that he had lost his ancestral imprint, he would lose the honour and status that came with being a heavenly king.

"No, I have to retrieve my ancestral imprint. I can't afford to lose my ancestral imprint, much less be chased off my throne as a heavenly king." Suddenly, the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King made a decision. He gave up on healing and left the Scarlet Blood Domain, erasing his presence and making his way towards Sword Emperor city silently.

In the Xia Merchant Union's courtyard within Sword Emperor city, the firmly-shut door to the secret room slowly opened up. Jian Chen drifted out from there in white clothes.

He did indeed drift out of there. His legs had turned to stone, so he was stuck in a seated position. He was no longer able to walk like a regular person. If he wanted to move around, he had to use the power of laws.

But fortunately, he possessed great mastery over the Laws of Space. He only needed to adjust the space around him slightly to go wherever he wanted.

"Around half of the cracks in my soul have been healed. Two strands of Profound Sword Qi have appeared too. However, I can feel that these cracks will become more difficult to heal as I go." Jian Chen sighed inside. Now, he had basically gathered half of all the Lifesoul Flowers in the entire Wood Spirits World, but at this rate, even if he obtained the remaining half, they probably would not be enough for him to completely recover.

The healing process became more difficult the further he progressed. Not only did the Lifesoul Flowers he require multiply, but it would take even longer time too.

"Senior, you've emerged?" Bai Yurou stood outside the secret room waiting the entire time. As soon as she saw Jian Chen, she immediately bowed towards him politely.

"Yurou, you don't have to spend all your time waiting here. Go do what you need to do." Jian Chen smiled faintly towards Bai Yurou.

"I am unable to pay back senior's great kindness. Senior also happens to be lacking some people around you, so let me serve you," Bai Yurou said politely. Her voice was filled with sincerity.

From Death Valley to White Emperor city, Jian Chen had saved them numerous times, which filled Bai Yurou with gratitude towards Jian Chen.

"Please don't turn me down, senior, or I won't be able to find any peace with myself." Bai Yurou bowed deeply towards Jian Chen.

After a short moment of hesitation, Jian Chen ended up sighing and saying, "Since you insist, then so be it. Go and find me a wheelchair."

Very soon, Bai Yurou returned with a wheelchair. Jian Chen stopped levitating in the air with the Laws of Space. He directly sat down on the wheelchair and allowed Bai Yurou to push him.

Very soon, Bai Yurou pushed the wheelchair over to the side of a small lake. Jian Chen sat on the wheelchair and stared at the fish in the water in a daze.

"Your White Emperor clan has also been drawn into this conflict. Haven't you considered helping out the clan you once belonged to?" Jian Chen suddenly asked.

Bai Yurou's expression became mixed. She said softly, "Great-grandfather is already dead. He died to one of our own. Even we almost died to one of our own. I've completely given up on this clan already."

"Only ancestor Yan and ancestor Zong's factions remain in White Emperor city. The fate of their factions no longer have anything to do with our White Emperor's faction."

"It's very easy for you to reach the Primordial realm with your talent, so you can actually take charge of White Emperor city again," said Jian Chen.

"In senior's eyes, the shackles holding back a Godking from reaching the Primordial realm is obviously nothing, but to me, breaking through them is anything but easy." Bai Yurou sighed gently.

"You've already helped me enough, senior. You've even provided our White Emperor's faction with a safe place in this chaotic world. Our faction is incapable of paying you back, so I would never trouble senior any further, much less propose any other requests."

"It's fate that we met, and you helped me out in the past too. I didn't need your help, but this sentiment is still present, so what's wrong with me helping you out today? It's nothing to me anyway," said Jian Chen.

Bai Yurou showed no joy. She seemed to think of something. Her face was filled with worry as she said sternly, "Senior, the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King isn't that easy to handle. The Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King won't spare me. You can't completely offend the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King because of me."

Even now, Bai Yurou could not forget about Jian Chen's clash with the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King. She failed to make out many of the precise details due to her limited cultivation, but she did know that the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King had managed to escape unscathed in the end.

However, Jian Chen had suffered extremely heavy injuries.

As a result, it seemed like Jian Chen could hold his ground against the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King, but he definitely was not the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King's opponent in actual battle.
