When the teleportation array leading from the Soaring Cloud Sword Sect to the Grand Void Mystic Realm glowed with a faint blue light, Chu Mo held Yun Che's hand and stepped into it. As space violently twisted, he vaguely heard the Scripture Pavilion Elder's instructions: "The Grand Void Mystic Realm opens once every ten years and contains a fragment map of the Ancient Sword Domain. But that place... is also a battleground for forces from the Spirit Realm."
The light dissipated, and the two landed in a field of blood-colored stone pillars. The air was filled with decaying sword intent, and the scattered jade slips and broken blades on the ground told of the tragic fates of past explorers.
"Brother Chu Mo, I smell blood." Yun Che suddenly clutched the jade pendant at her waist. The warning from her Heaven Suppressing Bloodline caused her pupils to shrink slightly. Deep within the stone forest in the distance, three figures were walking through blood — the woman leading them wore silver scale armor, and nine bone swords floated behind her. It was clearly the Bone Sword Emissary from the Myriad Demon Palace in the Spirit Realm.
"Chaos Sword Body?" The woman's gaze was like a knife, and her bone swords emitted an eerie hum. "I didn't expect such a treasure to be hidden in this tiny place, the Southern Region. Hand over your Sword Body Origin, and I'll leave your bodies intact."
Chu Mo's broken sword was unsheathed, and the Primordial Chaos Sword Seal on the blade glowed faintly. He could feel that the Myriad Demon Palace woman's bone swords contained a unique Law of Death, which was excellent nourishment for breaking through the second level of the Chaos Sword Body.
"Primordial Sword Art, Fifth Form - Soul Devour!"
The moment the broken sword struck, the Chaos Sword Qi transformed into myriad ghostly shadows. The Bone Sword Emissary's nine bone swords actually trembled on their own, and the Law of Death was absorbed into his sword body like a tide. The woman was horrified to discover that her Life-Bound Bone Sword was disintegrating inch by inch, turning into black mist and merging into Chu Mo's Sword Domain.
"Impossible..." The woman spat out a mouthful of blood and turned to flee. But Chu Mo gave her no chance. His broken sword transformed into a streak of light, piercing through her brow. When the last wisp of the Law of Death was absorbed, a faint phantom of a bone sword appeared in his Sword Domain.
"Be careful!" Yun Che suddenly tackled Chu Mo to the ground. An ice cone grazed his scalp and exploded on the stone wall, sending ice crystals flying everywhere. In the distance, a group of cultivators in white robes slowly approached. The person leading them held a jade flute and was an old acquaintance from the Soaring Cloud Sword Sect — Xiao Yichen's senior brother, Murong Bai.
"Chu Mo, it's been a while." Murong Bai smiled and played his jade flute, the sound waves laced with corrosive sword intent. "The Mysterious Yellow Divine Dynasty has a bounty on the Chaos Sword Body. I'm just following orders."
Just as a battle was about to erupt, the ground suddenly shook violently. The core of the Grand Void Mystic Realm — the Chaos Sword Domain Fragment Map — appeared. A massive bronze gate emerged in the sky, covered in Chaos Runes, each one corresponding to the patterns on Chu Mo's sword.
"Sword Domain Resonance!" The Scripture Pavilion Elder's words echoed in Chu Mo's mind. He rushed towards the bronze gate without hesitation, his Chaos Sword Qi surging into the gaps between the runes. An ancient sword cry came from behind the gate, as if countless sword spirits were calling for their master.
"Stop him!" Murong Bai and the remaining forces of the Myriad Demon Palace attacked simultaneously. Seeing this, Yun Che bit her tongue and spat out essence blood. The Heaven Suppressing Seal transformed into a golden barrier, protecting Chu Mo. Her face instantly turned pale. The excessive use of her Heaven Suppressing Bloodline caused her meridians to burn.
"Yun Che!" Chu Mo looked back, his eyes filled with anxiety. Just then, the bronze gate burst open, and a suction force pulled everyone inside. When he opened his eyes again, he found himself in an ancient palace suspended in the void. On the stone platform in the center of the palace lay half of a jade pendant engraved with the characters "Primordial Chaos."
"That's..." Yun Che struggled to get up. The jade pendant at her waist suddenly glowed, resonating with the jade pendant on the stone platform. The two jade pendants merged in the air, transforming into a streak of light that entered Chu Mo's sea of consciousness.
In an instant, Chu Mo's sea of consciousness was illuminated. He saw his mother Chu Muxue's last memory: Back then, she obtained the complete Primordial Chaos Jade Pendant in the Grand Void Mystic Realm but was jointly besieged by the Mysterious Yellow Divine Dynasty, the Myriad Demon Palace, and the Blood Demon Sect. To protect her young son, she split the jade pendant in half and hid them separately in the Sword Tomb and the Heaven Suppressing Family.
"So that's how it is..." Chu Mo gripped his broken sword, and his Chaos Sword Qi surged. The clamor of countless cultivators came from outside the ancient palace. Clearly, various forces had been attracted by the appearance of the Sword Domain.
"Brother Chu Mo, we must leave before the power of the jade pendant dissipates." Yun Che struggled to stand, but the light of the Heaven Suppressing Seal grew weaker and weaker. She knew her bloodline power was close to exhaustion.
Just then, a black figure suddenly emerged from the shadows. The person held a blood-colored sickle and exuded a familiar Blood Demon Qi — it was the Protector Elder of the Blood Demon Sect.
"Chaos Sword Body, Heaven Suppressing Bloodline, and the complete Primordial Chaos Jade Pendant..." The Elder licked his lips. "With you, my Blood Demon Sect will dominate the myriad realms in no time!"
Chu Mo stood in front of Yun Che, his broken sword colliding with the blood-colored sickle. This time, he didn't rush to devour the opponent's power. Instead, he mobilized all the laws in his Sword Domain, condensing them into a seven-colored sword light.
"Primordial Chaos Sword Art, World Annihilation Scroll - Myriad Laws Return to Origin!"
The sword light flashed, and the Blood Demon Elder's body disintegrated inch by inch. But the aftermath of the battle also made the ancient palace precarious. Chu Mo hurriedly picked up Yun Che and rushed towards the direction of the teleportation array.
Behind them, the sounds of Murong Bai and others pursuing grew closer. And outside the Grand Void Mystic Realm, the Immortal Emperor of the Mysterious Yellow Divine Dynasty, Xiao Zhantian, was personally overseeing the situation. He looked towards the Mystic Realm, his eyes glinting with greed: "Chaos Sword Body, Heaven Suppressing Bloodline, and the Primordial Chaos Jade Pendant... This time, no one will escape my grasp."
The moment Chu Mo carried Yun Che into the teleportation array, he looked back at the gradually collapsing Chaos Sword Domain. He knew this was just the beginning. The conspiracy of the Mysterious Yellow Divine Dynasty, the pursuit by the Blood Demon Sect, and the revenge of the Myriad Demon Palace... But as long as Yun Che was by his side and he had the broken sword in his hand, he had the courage to face everything.
The light of the teleportation array dissipated, and the two returned to the Soaring Cloud Sword Sect. After settling Yun Che, Chu Mo stood alone in front of the Sword Tomb. His broken sword hummed softly, and the Primordial Chaos Sword Seal on the blade became clearer. He gripped the hilt, secretly vowing in his heart: "Mother, I will definitely uncover the truth of what happened back then and make everyone involved in the conspiracy pay with blood!"
The mountain wind howled past, and a faint sword cry came from the distance. The legend belonging to the Chaos Sword Master was unfolding a new chapter amidst the great changes in the Grand Void Mystic Realm.
