Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire

Qin Wentian’s body sank into the blood sea. He could sense his body gradually disappearing, turning into the void. When he completely entered the blood sea, he could sense that his flesh no longer existed. Only his soul was left.

The blood sea is able to corrode one’s body but it would leave the soul untouched?” Qin Wentian mused to himself. As long as one’s soul remained, they could always reconstruct their body. If their souls don’t die, they wouldn’t die.

The white bone boat continued to sink into the endless depths of the blood sea. Qin Wentian’s soul sank as well while floating forward. Even though only his soul was left, he still wanted to traverse this blood sea.

The Heaven Vault was even able to provide enough attraction to cause heavenly deities to risk their lives. There would surely be some secrets within. However, it wouldn’t be so easy to come in contact with those secrets.

Up ahead in the blood sea, a black-colored stream of air flowed towards Qin Wentian’s ethereal soul. It was none other than the substance that corroded the defenses of everyone on the blood sea earlier. This black-colored air flow now actually transformed into the shape of a human. His eyes were black, filled with an intense evil like an evil spirit. After that, not only was there a single evil spirit, Qin Wentian saw that more strands of the black-colored air flow manifesting and becoming evil spirits before lunging at his soul together.

A bright light radiated from Qin Wentian’s soul, unleashed by his astral souls, wanting to block the evil energies from these evil spirits. However, when the evil spirits rushed over, they instantly devoured the astral light radiating from him. Countless black-colored evil spirits lunged towards his soul and at this moment, Qin Wentian only felt his soul being devoured bit by bit. Terror appeared in his heart. These evil spirits actually caused him to feel fear. His consciousness was growing dimmer by the second.

“Have I died?” Qin Wentian felt his consciousness blurring. After that, it felt like he had died but a remnant of his soul returned to Ancient Azure Mystic and was floating in the airspace there.

He saw Qing`er, Qingcheng, Ye Qianyu, Beiming Youhuang, Bai Qing. All of them were waiting for him, day after day, year after year. But ultimately, he didn’t return to them as he had already died.

It was like he could see Qing`er cutting off her white hair as her heart turned to ashes. He could see Qingcheng’s heart falling into utter despair.

His consciousness floated towards the Demon God Mountain. He saw his grandfather and Leier and after they learned of his death, Lei

er cried while his grandfather stared up at the sky and sighed. His uncle suffered the sorrow silently. Everything has concluded. No one would be able to take revenge for his parents. No one would take care of his wives. They had to remain in the world and endure endless suffering. Such terror caused him to feel despair, further weakening his will. He didn’t want to watch this any longer as he couldn’t stand the sights of his loved ones acting like this.

“Since I can see all of this, this indicated that my will still exists. I have not died completely.” Qin Wentian bolstered his weakening will and with a great force, he managed to pull himself back to the blood sea. Countless evil spirits were invading his soul but right now, Qin Wentian’s will was extremely tough. His soul continued to float forward, ignoring the negative emotions from the evil spirits, not bothered by them.

These evil spirits formed from the black-colored air flow weren’t true evil spirits that could destroy one’s soul and wipe one’s will. They were like spirit bodies formed from negative emotions, they were ethereal and would bring terror and despair to everyone, wanting the people in the blood sea to remain trapped here in their illusions forever.

Qin Wentian’s soul continued forward, more and more evil spirits lunged over at him. But because of his earlier experience, his will no longer wavered as he resolutely continued on his way.

Not only for Qin Wentian, everyone who entered the blood sea would encounter the attacks from these evil spirits.

Right now, Goddess Nichang was also surrounded by countless evil spirits. Her ethereal soul radiated a holy light, but there were tear stains from the eyes of her soul. She gritted her teeth and continued to resist while moving forward.

In the blood sea, Qin Wentian didn’t know how many people have chosen to enter here. In any case, he wasn’t able to help them either. He could only depend on his strong will to resist everything.

He believed that there would be a day where he walked out of the blood sea.

However, despite so, Qin Wentian’s resolute conviction still actually wavered after a period of time. As more time flowed by, he felt that he had already spent centuries traversing the blood sea. However, the blood sea seemed boundlessly vast, like there was no end to it. He would never be able to exit this place to reach the other shore.

The evil spirits formed from the black-colored air flow continuously tried to invade his soul, bringing with them all sorts of negative emotions. A day, two days; a year, two years... Qin Wentian felt that he had already been traversing the blood sea for a very very long time. However, there was no end to this at all. He kept telling himself to guard his original heart, not allowing his will to waver and he would be able to leave here sooner or later. Maybe, tomorrow would be the day where he reached the other shore. action

Hope rose up, only to turn into disappointment. After countless cycles, despair became steeped in his heart.

The blood sea was still the blood sea, it felt like he had never moved from his original location at all, like he kept pacing about in a fixed location. However, in reality, tens of years have already passed and he simply continued walking forward. Only he himself knew how much despair there was in his heart. Also, fear kept building up as well.

Such immense amounts of fear and despair was sufficient to cause one’s heart to completely collapse.

He involuntarily thought of Qing`er, Qingcheng, Ye Qianyu again. Everytime he felt close to giving up, he would think about them, drawing support from his memories of them as he continued on forward.

However, the despair seemed eternal. Despair was able to destroy one’s conviction bit by bit. Another unknown amount of years passed and he was still in the blood sea. If this continued on, even if one day he finally managed to exit the blood sea, how many years would have passed?

Qin Wentian was tired, he truly felt fatigued and wanted to give up, allowing himself to die here.

His will slowly dissipated, no longer able to persist. But at this moment, he suddenly shivered, feeling coldness in the depths of his soul. In an instant, all illusions seemed to vanish as he broke free from the depression. His soul was still currently being invaded by many evil spirits. Those hundred years of despair seemed to be nothing but a dream.

The evil spirits not only could bring terror, they could also bring despair. These evil spirits in the blood sea would cause negative emotions of their targets to magnify, causing their wills to collapse.

“Too terrifying.” Qin Wentian shuddered. Unknowingly, these evil spirits could cause one to sink into their nightmares, unable to extricate themselves. When you thought you broke free from the illusions and came back to reality, you discovered that the reality was still an illusion.

Qin Wentian continued ahead. After some time, he saw a flawlessly beautiful figure before him. It was none other than the soul of Goddess Nichang. She was currently struggling, it felt like she had also sank into the despair and terror which engulfed him earlier. Qin Wentian’s soul floated forward, he sent a strand of soul force into Goddess Nichang’s world of despair as their souls formed a connection.

“It’s you?” Goddess Nichang’s beautiful eyes stared at Qin Wentian.

“It’s me. The evil spirits within the blood sea have the power to bewilder the minds of people entering it. They can cause negative emotions and fill the hearts of people with despair and terror.” Qin Wentian spoke. “Don’t be affected by it.”

Goddess Nichang’s beautiful eyes flashed and after that, it seemed that she managed to break free from the despair. Her soul shuddered. After that, her beautiful eyes stared at Qin Wentian. “Thank you, let’s travel together from now on.”

“Sure.” Qin Wentian nodded as the two of them traveled together, continuing to traverse the blood sea. However, they still couldn’t reach the other end despite after a long time. During the journey, they met with many dangers and had to continuously resist the influences from the evil spirits.

“Will we be trapped here forever, unable to exit?” Goddess Nichang stared at Qin Wentian.

“I don’t think so.” Qin Wentian shook his head. At this moment, Goddess Nichang suddenly stretched out a dainty hand and pulled on Qin Wentian’s arm as she softly spoke. “I’m already very tired and wish to give up.”

Qin Wentian’s arm trembled a little. He stared at Goddess Nichang, “Even if this blood sea truly has no other shore, we will still be able to exit it.”

“I’m really tired. Can you stay here and accompany me?” Goddess Nichang moved closer to Qin Wentian, wanting to lean against him. Upon seeing this scene, Qin Wentian closed his eyes and sighed, “Ultimately, is this still an illusion? Can it be that the evil spirits are able to trap me in unending layers of illusion unceasingly?”

When he opened his eyes again, Goddess Nichang wasn’t here at all. Everything was false. Earlier, there was despair and terror. What is this now? Are these the lust and greed in his heart?

Goddess Nichang was the number one beauty of the Heaven Region and had a period of interaction with Qin Wentian before. If Qin Wentian said that he didn’t feel the slightest bit of lust towards her, that was absolutely impossible. In the depths of everyone’s heart, there would always be lust and greed. The only question was how intense are those emotions? Qin Wentian didn’t really have any nefarious intents towards Nichang but at the bottom of his heart, lust still existed however slight. The evil spirits actually found the lust and created that illusion earlier.

“Blood as the sea, bones as the boat.” Qin Wentian mumbled. He no longer wished to continue traveling ahead. There were a countless number of evil spirits. Now, he couldn’t even differentiate between reality and fantasy.

“Since this is the case, I shall use my soul as the boat, my will as the sea. The blood sea won’t be able to impede me.” Qin Wentian murmured. His soul was as though it transformed into the form of a boat. His powerful will integrated with the blood sea and protected the soul boat, guiding it forward, allowing the evil intents from the evil spirits to invade, ignoring them. He no longer used the blood sea as a medium to travel forward. He depended solely on his will.

And after a very very long time, Qin Wentian felt a gentle breeze blowing past him. He opened his eyes, feeling extremely comfortable. Right now, he has already reached the other shore. Stepping forward, as his foot touched the shoreline, he discovered that his soul was undamaged, his flesh was present as well. It was like everything he experienced earlier was just an illusion. Yet, the blood sea behind him still seemed so real.

But no matter what, he reached the other shore.

On the other shore, only a few people were there. It was a huge contrast compared to the starting shore of the blood sea.

Among these people, there were: Sword Monarch Jian Junlai, Reverend Seven Abstinences and Hua Taixu.

Hua Taixu actually also managed to traverse the blood sea with such a quick speed. What he cultivated was the laws of samsara. He could see through the cycle of reincarnation itself, all these illusions would never be able to obstruct him!

“Blood as the sea, bones as the boat. All the evil spirits manifesting the evil intents in the hearts of everyone. Could this Heaven Vault be...?” Reverend Seven Abstinences mumbled in a low voice, thinking of a possibility. After that, his heart couldn’t help but tremble violently, filled with great waves of shock!
