Wu Shattered Star River

The River of Bloodshed is located at the westernmost edge of the world, bordering the territory of the Demon Clan. Here, a massive, blood-colored river stretches from north to south, its end invisible at a single glance.

From afar, this river doesn't seem very large, but upon approaching, one discovers that it's tens of thousands of miles wide. Moreover, what you see on the outside is not all there is; the inside holds a different world entirely.

It would be more accurate to describe this place not as a river, but as a strange, great world.

"The space within the River of Bloodshed is different from the outside. Countless bloodstones float within, and these bloodstones are the dwelling places of the Bloodshed Clan. These bloodstones constantly drift within, moving at extreme speeds."

"The inner space also contains countless blood mists, making it very easy to be exposed, as there's nowhere to hide. Bloodstones constantly drift by, each containing countless members of the Bloodshed Clan."

Outside the long river, the Longevity Heavenly Emperor introduced the situation within the River of Bloodshed to Jiang Han.

They arrived here very quickly. The Longevity Heavenly Emperor and two Immortal Emperors, along with Jiang Han, used Star Flash Teleportation to travel, taking only seven or eight days.

Jiang Han used the Myriad Transformations spell, transforming into an ordinary Immortal Emperor. After listening to the Longevity Heavenly Emperor's words, he asked, "Are we just going to charge straight in like this?"

"We can't charge straight in!"

The Longevity Heavenly Emperor waved his hand, pointing to a section of the river in the distance and saying, "Go over there. The river's currents are very turbulent there, so that should be the entrance."

The Longevity Heavenly Emperor led Jiang Han and the two Immortal Emperors forward. It seemed like a short distance, but they flew for more than three hours.

The currents in this section of the river were very strong. As they approached the river, a fierce aura suddenly emanated from within, followed by more than a dozen figures shooting out from the river.

This was Jiang Han's first time seeing the Bloodshed Clan. This clan… was very ferocious!

This clan wasn't humanoid, nor did they walk upright. They were more like demi-humans.

Their bodies resembled reptiles, but their upper bodies were human, and they were gigantic. Their entire bodies were covered in blood-red scales, they had wings on their backs, and a blood-red tail.

The aura emanating from them was very similar to that of ferocious beasts, exceptionally fierce and with cold eyes.

They all held blood-colored steel tridents in their hands. Although they were just over a dozen ordinary soldiers, Jiang Han felt that they all possessed the battle prowess of Celestial Immortals.

One of the Bloodshed Clan members scanned the group, finally landing his gaze on the Longevity Heavenly Emperor. This Bloodshed Clan member seemed to sense the Longevity Heavenly Emperor's strength, so his tone wasn't too harsh.

He said, "This is the River of Bloodshed. Our clan does not welcome you humans. Leave immediately, or we will consider it an invasion!"

The Longevity Heavenly Emperor didn't speak. One of the Immortal Emperors flew forward a few steps, pointing at the Longevity Heavenly Emperor and saying, "This is the Longevity Heavenly Emperor of our Heavenly Court. We are here on the Jade Emperor's orders to pay a special visit to the Bloodshed Clan King!"

"Longevity Heavenly Emperor?"

The Bloodshed Clan member seemed to have heard of this name. He slightly cupped his fist towards the Longevity Heavenly Emperor and said, "Please wait a moment, I need to report this!"

The Longevity Heavenly Emperor didn't speak, waving his hand. The Bloodshed Clan member dove into the River of Bloodshed.

After waiting for about half an hour, he returned, cupping his fist and saying, "Longevity Heavenly Emperor, our clan king is in seclusion. King Rongtian will represent our clan king in receiving you. Please follow me!"

"Good!"

The Longevity Heavenly Emperor nodded, leading Jiang Han and the other four to follow the group of Bloodshed Clan members into the River of Bloodshed.

As soon as he stepped into the River of Bloodshed, Jiang Han felt a flash of red light before his eyes, and he arrived in a strange world.

He looked around and found himself in a blood-red world. Everywhere he looked, pinkish mist floated, and countless red boulders drifted rapidly in the void.

Not only were there blood-colored stones and blood mist, but there were also many blood-colored rivers. This place was indeed a different world entirely, not as small as it looked from the outside; the inside was a strange, great world.

"咻!"

A huge stone floated over. The dozen or so Bloodshed Clan members led the way towards the stone, and Jiang Han and the others followed behind.

This stone seemed to be only a thousand feet in diameter. The entire stone was wrapped in blood-colored mist. After the middle-aged Bloodshed Clan member approached the mist, something magical happened—everyone's bodies actually shrunk, feeling as if they had shrunk tens of thousands of times.

"This isn't a stone, but an interface!"

Jiang Han was secretly shocked. From afar, this was just a large stone, but upon approaching, he discovered that it was actually an interface inside.

The space here was indeed very peculiar. This was similar to a divine ability he had comprehended in the past; the space-time inside was different from the space-time outside.

However, this interface wasn't very large. After entering, Jiang Han discovered that this place was more like a large secret realm. There was only one main city, and the rest of the area was mountains. Many Bloodshed Clan members lived in caves.

When they saw Jiang Han and the other humans, many Bloodshed Clan members had extremely cold and disgusted expressions. It seemed that the Bloodshed Clan's xenophobia wasn't just talk.

After entering the main city, a Bloodshed Clan expert came to greet them. He seemed to possess the battle prowess of an Emperor-level expert.

These Bloodshed Clan members' attitudes weren't very good either, only bowing slightly to the Longevity Heavenly Emperor. They merely glanced at Jiang Han and the other two.

After entering a red castle, the Bloodshed Clan members didn't stop. Inside the castle, there was a huge vortex. The Bloodshed Clan Emperor-level expert led them into the vortex, teleporting them away.

After teleporting more than a dozen times in a row, the four were brought to a huge city. Jiang Han and the others didn't know exactly where they were, but they just followed along the way.

They met King Rongtian of the Bloodshed Clan in a luxurious castle.

Although it was said to be luxurious, it wasn't the same style as the Heavenly Court. The so-called luxury here meant that the castles were all built with a kind of blood-colored jade, which looked particularly eerie.

In this great hall, there wasn't only King Rongtian, but also seven or eight Emperor-level Bloodshed Clan members.

Because they were on all fours, they didn't sit on chairs, but knelt on prayer mats.

King Rongtian, who had two red horns on his head, turned his gaze to the Longevity Heavenly Emperor and said, "Longevity Heavenly Emperor, I have long admired your name. May I ask what brings you to my Bloodshed Clan?"

The Longevity Heavenly Emperor smiled and said, "King Rongtian, I have also long heard of your great name. I have come this time to discuss the matter of the Evil Clan. I wonder, King Rongtian, have you heard of the Evil Clan?"

"Of course!"

King Rongtian said indifferently, "My Bloodshed Clan has existed for millions of years. When the Evil Clan unified the Great Thousand World in the past, my Bloodshed Clan already existed."

"But… so what? The Evil Clan once attacked the River of Bloodshed, but failed to conquer it. Even if they were to return now, what can they do to me?"

"Uh…"

The Longevity Heavenly Emperor and Jiang Han exchanged a glance, both stunned.

They didn't expect that the Evil Clan had actually attacked the River of Bloodshed in the past, and hadn't even managed to conquer it.

No wonder the Jade Emperor had sent an envoy last time to invite the Bloodshed Clan to discuss the matter of the Evil Clan, but the Bloodshed Clan had simply ignored it. So, they weren't afraid of the Evil Clan at all.

Since the Bloodshed Clan had no intention of joining forces to resist the Evil Clan, the Longevity Heavenly Emperor didn't waste any more words. He cupped his fist and said, "King Rongtian, I have an impolite request this time."

"We lack several array stones and spiritual materials. It is said that the River of Bloodshed has them. Could you exchange a batch for us? This matter will be considered a favor owed to your Bloodshed Clan by this old man."

The Longevity Heavenly Emperor handed over a list, which not only contained the array stones needed by Heavenly Mystery Daoist Master for setting up arrays, but also the three spiritual materials needed by Jiang Han.

King Rongqin took it and looked at it, coldly smiling and saying, "There's no need to owe this favor. We have all of these things, but we won't… give them to you!"
