Blood-red light and divine lightning swirled, from which a blood-transforming divine blade flew out, carrying a cruelty and tyranny that disregarded all living beings and seized the life force of all things for its own use, slashing towards the myriad sword illusion array.
No matter how you change, I will still wield my sword across the sky.
The Thousand Swords Illusion Array trembled, its sword light scattered, as if it could be completely destroyed with just a little more force.
Lin Yi gritted his teeth and struggled to hold on.
The starry river within his dantian had dimmed, but a continuous stream of magical power flowed out from the "Gate to the Other Shore".
This was extracted from Granny Tai Xuan during the sealing process.
Although it was just water without a source and a tree without roots, it was enough to help Lin Yi stabilize his position.
The Myriad Swords Illusion Array, though scattered, remained unbroken. Under Granny Tai Xuan's relentless onslaught, it was like a small boat caught in a storm, constantly in danger of capsizing.
Do you regret it?
A sinister smile appeared on Lin Yi's face, and a trace of blood appeared at the corner of his mouth. Life offers few opportunities to take a gamble.
The pursuit of immortality is not about becoming a cowardly turtle, nor is it about becoming a stone devoid of desire.
What I seek is a carefree and unrestrained life, where I can do whatever I want.
With each confrontation, a strand of blood would appear at the corner of Lin Yi's mouth, and at the same time, the spiral galaxy in his dantian would shrink a little.
Was it great? Yes, it was great, absolutely great.
Lin Yi burst into laughter. Although his laughter did not travel far, Granny Tai Xuan outside the Myriad Swords Illusion Array seemed to sense it.
She could sense that the little thief in the sword formation was like a spiritual elixir in a furnace or the embryo in a cauldron, becoming more and more crystal clear and flawless with continuous tempering.
Finally, Granny Tai Xuan stopped attacking.
Lin Yi, pale-faced and looking as if he would collapse at the slightest breeze, stepped out of the sword formation, bowed to Granny Tai Xuan, and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Granny. I will remember your great kindness and repay you many times over in the future."
As soon as he finished speaking, he vanished without a trace.
A streak of blood appeared beside Granny Tai Xuan. Looking at the spot where Lin Yi had disappeared, Blood River Daoist said thoughtfully, "So it was him."
Grandma Taixuan asked, puzzled, "Have you two met before?"
The Blood River Taoist said, "I once sensed this faint fluctuation of magical power in the Blood River. However, I have never been able to confirm it."
Fundamentally, the blood river underground is the true form of the Blood River Daoist, while his nine avatars are merely external manifestations of his supernatural powers.
Lin Yi walked through the Blood River, comprehending the mysteries of the Blood River's true water, which was equivalent to comprehending the Dao within the body of the Blood River Daoist.
If the Eternal Light hadn't been so incredibly powerful, it would have been discovered by the Blood River Daoist long ago.
"By the time we meet again, this person should have already formed his Golden Core. I just wonder what grade he will achieve?" Blood River Daoist said casually.
Grandma Taixuan snorted coldly and said, "At least it can be made into a high-grade pill."
Having said that, he transformed into a streak of blood-red light and flew towards the Hundred Thousand Mountains in the north.
Blood River Taoist then followed.

Chapter 82 There are people living in Wanhua Mountain
With a "plop," Lin Yi fell into the central pool of water in the cavern of the Qiankun Cauldron.
With a flash of sword light, a myriad sword illusion array was set up on the water's surface, firmly protecting the pool.
His mind was immersed in the darkness deep within his sea of consciousness, as if he had returned to the womb, tranquil and peaceful.
After an unknown amount of time, Lin Yi, feeling refreshed and full of energy, broke through the darkness before him and arrived above the sea of consciousness.
Here, the "Star River True Scripture" and the Taiyi Heluo Grand Array intertwine, resembling both a painting and a scroll, with countless talismans and true texts appearing on it, evolving into dozens of grand arrays.
However, this artifact was always lacking something and could not be truly formed.
Lin Yi glanced at it briefly. If this artifact were to take shape, it would be a treasure of sacred virtue born from the Five Primordial Elements, the Hetu Luoshu, also known as the Heluo Heavenly Book.
"Almost there, almost there," Lin Yi murmured softly, then turned his attention to his dantian.
The spiral galaxy is almost shrinking into a single point; it seems that with just a little more effort, the Jade Elixir can be circulated nine times and the Dragon-Tiger Elixir can be formed.
Lin Yi put the whole thought aside. He hadn't adjusted to his best state yet, and he still had many ideas that needed to be verified.
Once the elixir is completed, there is no regret. But once you take this step, it's difficult to turn back.
The seven innate true waters and true fires circulate within the body, repairing damage and tempering the flesh, providing benefits at every moment.
Lin Yi was enjoying the leisure time after the great battle.
A while later, he took out the Six Yang God-Sealing Banner and the Yin-Yang Two Qi Bottle that he carried with him.
Inside the Yin-Yang Two Qi Bottle, the Heavenly Roc clone is striving to evolve into the Heavenly Roc true form. Furthermore, the spiritual energy accumulated in the Yin-Yang Creation Pool is enough to create more than ten more Yin-Yang Dao Soldiers.
On the Six Yang God-Sealing Banner, ever since Lin Yi gave the Cursed Spirit Avatar to Zhu Wan, only a lonely ball of Netherworld Fire Curse remained.
The growth of the Netherworld Fire Curse requires constantly devouring the essence and vital energy of others. To create a clone of the cursed spirit, it needs to use the soul of another as raw material.
With a thought, Lin Yi saw Yin-Yang Dao Soldiers emerge from the Yin-Yang Two Qi Bottles. The Netherworld Fire Curse pounced on them like a glutton seeing a delicious meal.
After all the Yin-Yang Dao Soldiers were devoured by the Netherworld Fire Curse, this Heart Demon Curse had been upgraded to the level equivalent to the sixth level of Qi Refining.
As for the grade of the elixir, since there is no specific reference standard, Lin Yi can only roughly judge it to be a middle grade three elixir.
