The Son of Heavens Three Swords hum turned sharper when it realized that Zhou Wen wasnt completely dead. The swords that filled the sky immediately struck down, hoping to dice Zhou Wens body to pieces.

On the other side, the ancient sword also realized that Zhou Wen wasnt dead. It flew over again. This time, its target wasnt his chest, but Zhou Wens head.

Zhou Wen wasnt Li Xuan. It was impossible for him to live with his head pierced.

He completely gave up on resistance. He had no intention of controlling the blood-colored avatar, but the blood-colored avatar began moving under the driving force of the sword intent in his body.

Sword Pill appeared and transformed into the vine sword. It was held in the blood-colored avatars hand as it fought the swords.

Zhou Wen had previously been the one gaming, but now, he felt like he was having a bot play for him. As he watched the blood-colored avatar automatically fight, the weapons that were killed would occasionally drop dimensional crystals or Companion Eggs.

Seeing a Mythical Companion Egg drop, Zhou Wen wanted to pick it up, but he couldnt. All he could do was watch.

The vine swords body had already turned to dust, but now, it was using Sword Pill as its new vessel. Sword Pills strength became stronger and stronger, as did its domain.

Many of the swords that approached Sword Pill fell to the ground uncontrollably. Only the especially powerful swords could reach the blood-colored avatar, but the power of the swords became limp as though they lacked strength.

The vine swords strength wasnt weaker than the ancient sword. It only had half its strength left previously to fight the ancient sword. Now, its strength was all inside Sword Pill, so it didnt appear as weak in battle as before.

However, as Sword Pills domain hadnt completely taken form, it was still difficult for it to fight the ancient sword head-on. Therefore, Sword Pill kept dodging and stalling for time while pulling Zhou Wens body along.

Once its strength perfectly fused with Sword Pill, allowing it to advance to the Calamity grade, it would truly have the capital to fight the ancient sword.

Dream on. How can it be as you wish?

?Zhou Wen sneered inwardly. It was finally time for him to put in the effort.

Previously, the vine sword was independent of his body, but it was different now. The vine swords sword intent had completely fused into Sword Pill. It no longer had a body that could be used as a foundation to exert strength, so it relied solely on its will to control Sword Pill.

Sword Pill belonged to Zhou Wen; it was condensed using Zhou Wens body as a foundation, making it easier for him to control it.

The vine sword believed that its sword intent was powerful enough that no one could withstand it. It believed that its sword intent could crush Zhou Wens will and easily obtain control of Sword Pill.

Under normal circ.u.mstances, it was indeed the case. The vine sword could easily shatter the three thousand sword intents. Such intent was indeed very strong, so strong that Zhou Wen found it unimaginable.

Zhou Wen was far from reaching that stage, but this didnt mean that he didnt have the ability to resist. Zhou Wens realm might be lacking, but in terms of willpower, he was invincible. Perhaps defeating the vine swords intent was difficult, but it was still possible to hold it back.

The vine sword intent controlled Sword Pill for the battle when it suddenly stopped. Sword Pill, which was supposed to slash right, paused for a moment, failing to block the ancient sword.

The ancient sword stabbed into the blood-colored avatars abdomen as a terrifying sword aura immediately surged in, wreaking havoc in Zhou Wens body.

The sword intent and sword aura in Sword Pill immediately surged over, hoping to withstand the sword aura that invaded his body. However, only the sword intent rushed over without the sword aura.

Zhou Wen was temporarily unable to control the sword intent brought about by the vine sword, but it wasnt that simple for the vine sword to borrow the sword aura in Sword Pill. It had to first suppress Zhou Wens willpower.

The ancient swords aura rapidly spread through Zhou Wens body as the sword intent retreated in defeat. Sword intent was only sword intent after all. Without the fusion with corporeal powers like sword aura, sword intent was far inferior to sword aura in terms of destructive power.

The Calamity Zone that it had painstakingly condensed quickly collapsed.

It should be ending soon, right?

?Zhou Wen felt that he was doomed this time. It was unlikely there would be a turnaround.

It was indeed as Zhou Wen had imagined. The sword aura constantly tore through the blood-colored avatars body, putting it on the brink of collapse. In at most twenty to thirty seconds, the body under the corrosion of the sword aura would completely lose its vitality.

Zhou Wen waited for death to arrive while admiring the hopelessness of the vine sword intent.

Why arent you showing your arrogance anymore? Where did the arrogance from before go??

Zhou Wen was somewhat smug, but on second thought, he was the one who wanted to use the power of the vine sword to advance to the Calamity grade. It didnt seem wrong for it to give him strength. It was just a little too a.s.sertive.

With this in mind, Zhou Wen immediately felt disinterested. This clearly couldnt be considered a victory. He just didnt like it and wanted to change the Calamity Zone.

Sorry, I cant do anything about it. Your strength is different from the power I want. I have no choice. Zhou Wen watched as the sword intent was constantly eliminated. As he watched, an idea suddenly flashed in his mind.

While the ancient swords sword aura destroyed Zhou Wens body, it also destroyed the resisting sword intent. During this process, Zhou Wen discovered an interesting phenomenon.

Sword auras and sword intents were actually two completely different things. Sword auras were corporeal, while sword intents were intangible.

Under normal circ.u.mstances, sword intent couldnt directly affect matter itself. It could only affect ones psyche. However, because of the potency of the vine swords sword intent, it affected tangible objects. Therefore, it could resist the sword aura.

The clash between tangible and intangible objects made Zhou Wen discover something very interesting.

Is an intangible object really formless and intangible??

Zhou Wen had thought so in the past, but after seeing the clash between the sword auras and sword intents, he realized that it wasnt that simple.

The sword intent affected his body. It was originally impossible for his body to resist such a terrifying sword aura, but under the effects of the intangible sword intent, his bodys strength was strengthened to the point of being able to withstand the sword aura slightly.

This enhancement was extremely shocking. It was clearly an illusion that was similar to a dream, but it could be used in reality.

Could it be that intangible objects can really be transformed into something corporeal??

Zhou Wens heart stirred as he released his control over Sword Pill. Then, he used his willpower to influence Sword Pill and stimulate its sword intent.

With the vine sword intent receiving help, it stabilized the crumbling situation, preventing Zhou Wen from immediately dying.

Zhou Wen naturally wasnt doing this to help the vine sword intent.. He just wanted to observe for a while and see what the secret between intangibility and corporeality was.
