Shocking the Nine Heavens With My Sword

Chapter 637: Chapter 614: Broken Rune (3/3)

Hum!

Zhou Heng only felt his vision blur as he entered a blood-red world.

This was not his physical body entering this realm, but his consciousness. This was the interior of the Blood River Heavenly Scripture, and where the mysteries of the Blood River Heavenly Scripture were concealed.

With no distinction of east, west, north, or south, and devoid of up, down, left, or right, it was a blood-colored world, an empty expanse with nothing but endless blood-red.

Zhou Heng was not in a hurry; his physical body held the Blood River Heavenly Scripture as he quickly positioned his consciousness. With a slight smile, he flew off in one direction.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Bloody qi transformed into long waterfalls, rushing towards Zhou Heng to strike him.

Zhou Heng executed the Swift Cloud Radiant Step, navigating freely amongst the bloody waterfalls. But the further he advanced, the faster the waterfalls surged until even Zhou Heng was somewhat at a loss.

“You little brat, you’re too early to pry into the secrets of heaven and earth!” a bloody waterfall suddenly transformed into a face, a child no more than four or five years old, speaking very haughtily to Zhou Heng.

Zhou Heng’s eyes narrowed; this was the Artifact Spirit of the Blood River Heavenly Scripture!

“Don’t be so stingy, what’s the harm in letting me have a look?” he said with a laugh.

“Hmph, you think you’re coaxing a child!” The child disappeared from that waterfall and emerged from another, ruling this Inner World with its consciousness as the king.

Zhou Heng inwardly sighed; judging from the sensations of his physical body outside, he was still nine-tenths away from the center of the Blood River Heavenly Scripture! Yet the pressure here was already so great that he was forced to stop. If he couldn’t persuade the Artifact Spirit, he had no chance of glimpsing the mysteries of this scripture.

Heavenly Scriptures, being cultivation techniques nurtured by heaven and earth, were naturally not something one could learn simply by wishing to.
