The Alien God can even establish contracts, which is indeed quite professional.

This kind of powerful spiritual contract locks the divine souls of both parties and actually has a strong binding force.

Of course, the binding power of the contract entirely comes from the Crimson Eye. There is no third party to arbitrate or witness.

As the dominant party, the Crimson Eye can unilaterally enforce or breach the contract. Gao Xuan has no capability to restrain the Crimson Eye.

The Crimson Eye establishes the contract not to gain Gao Xuan's trust, but to bind Gao Xuan with it.

Its immense spiritual power forcibly pulled the Hongyi Sword into the negative space, where it hovered in front of Gao Xuan.

The Hongyi Sword, which had already developed spirituality, trembled slightly in the negative space. The dense negative space source power here was greatly damaging to the sword's spirituality.

The Crimson Eye blinked, and a drop of transparent water flowed from the depths of its eye.

This drop of water was extremely pure, without any color but shining with a certain mystical luster, full of spirituality.

Gao Xuan knew that this was definitely not a tear from the Crimson Eye. As a lifeform shaped like an eyeball, it certainly wouldn't shed tears.

Moreover, this drop of water was exceptionally mystical and pure, completely different from the Crimson Eye's sinister aura.

"This is the Essence of Water Elemental Source Power that I collected from the Endless Void. As light as dust, as heavy as a mountain. The weight and reality can be transformed at will..."

For some reason, the Crimson Eye actually explained this to Gao Xuan.

With such a divine object, forging a sword wouldn't be difficult.

Even though the Crimson Eye wasn't proficient in sword forging, its spiritual power was extremely formidable, and it could forcibly integrate the Hongyi Sword with the Water Source Essence.

Gao Xuan couldn't achieve forming a stable structure on the source power level by merging the intangible Water Source Essence with the tangible Hongyi Sword.

Even the Golden Sword Saint would find it difficult to do so.

This requires not only spiritual power but also mastery over laws to defy the inherent laws of the Water Source Essence and merge with the physical Hongyi Sword.

For the Crimson Eye, this was clearly also very difficult.

Gao Xuan could sense that the other party had consumed at least ninety percent of its enormous spiritual power just to complete the reforging of the Hongyi Sword.

The Hongyi Sword, fused with the Water Source Essence, appeared almost unchanged on the surface. Only the blade looked more transparently clear, with more agile flowing water light.

However, this sword had completely changed. Even the physical material of the sword had been entirely transformed.

The source power level of the Hongyi Sword had undergone earth-shattering changes.

In terms of source power level, the Hongyi Sword now surpassed all the marvels on Gao Xuan's body.

This Alien God indeed has some skills!

Gao Xuan felt he had profited. The Godslaying Sword was certainly useful, but it wasn't convenient to use it at all times.

The Hongyi Sword, however, was just an ordinary sword artifact, far beneath his cultivation level, and it wasn't handy to use.

This modification, however, bestowed new life to the Hongyi Sword.

"The contract is complete. You should fulfill your part of the contract now."

The Crimson Eye looked at Gao Xuan, its enormous crimson pupil shining with an eerie light.

"Let me check it first."

Gao Xuan's divine soul floated to the front of the Hongyi Sword, his spiritual awareness immersing into it, quickly establishing a close connection with the sword.

The Crimson Eye did not stop him. Even with this sword, Gao Xuan posed no threat to it. This chapter is part of the collection on *.

Gao Xuan's spiritual awareness easily left a spiritual imprint on the core of the Hongyi Sword, confirming his absolute sovereignty over this sword.

Gao Xuan gently shook the Hongyi Sword, causing the Ming Che Sword Light to ripple heavily, even illuminating the deep void.

"Good sword."

Gao Xuan exclaimed, and then said, "But this is not a divine sword."

The Crimson Eye's red light surged in its eyes, "The sword I create is a divine sword!"

"Nonsense, I don't accept that."

Gao Xuan wielded the Hongyi Sword, releasing its sword intent, and said righteously, "Shoddy work is like a scam, big eyeball, you're overthinking it."

The Crimson Eye was suddenly furious. It really didn't expect Gao Xuan to dare to play tricks with it, and openly so right in front of it.

This insignificant creature really thought its contract was just for show!

The Crimson Eye locked onto Gao Xuan's divine soul through the previously established contract. Although it was not adept at manipulating divine souls, with the contract, it could easily strip away Gao Xuan's divine soul and reshape it according to its will.

To occupy Gao Xuan's body without being rejected by the rules of another world, it needed a layer of Gao Xuan's divine soul to disguise itself.

The Crimson Eye activated the contract, intending to forcibly take Gao Xuan's divine soul.

At that moment, however, the Crimson Eye suddenly sensed danger.

It was naturally endowed with extremely powerful strength, having killed countless lives in its long wandering through the void. Yet it had never encountered any danger.

As a result, it had no understanding of danger.

The Crimson Eye even hesitated for a moment, not quite comprehending what this uneasy feeling represented.

By the time it reacted, a trace of crimson sword light was already deeply imprinted in its pupil.

The Crimson Eye's enormous pupil instinctively contracted, and then its immense and unmatched spiritual power erupted violently.

That trace of bloody sword light was instantly annihilated, along with Gao Xuan's spiritual awareness.

The Alien God's immense and unmatched spiritual power was at least dozens or hundreds of times greater than Gao Xuan's.

In the negative space, the Crimson Eye's spiritual power was not restricted at all.

The spiritual impact released by its instinct snuffed out Gao Xuan's spiritual awareness in an instant.

The Crimson Eye immediately realized something was wrong, but Gao Xuan's divine soul had already dissipated and crumbled, it was too late for regret.

As for the Hongyi Sword floating in the void, it was not affected at all.

This impact of spiritual power was entirely on the spiritual plane.

The Crimson Eye was not too concerned about the Hongyi Sword either; in its form, it couldn't use a sword.

To it, the Hongyi Sword was too small. Too small to control.

The Essence of Water Elemental Source Power fused with the Hongyi Sword also changed the original Source Power state. Even if the Hongyi Sword was destroyed, the Water Source Essence could not be refined.

The Crimson Eye felt it was somewhat a pity; during its long wandering in the void, the Water Source Essence was the most precious treasure it had obtained.

And now, it was just wasted like that.

What made it most furious was being deceived by such a humble and tiny life. And it was even stabbed by the other party.

The Crimson Eye found it funny, did Gao Xuan actually intend to kill it? How ignorant could he be.

Given its divine lifeform, just staying still and letting Gao Xuan attack, he wouldn't be able to kill it.

The gap in their life levels was too vast.

As the Crimson Eye was pondering, it suddenly sensed familiar spiritual fluctuations inside the Blood Dragon Cave: Was that Gao Xuan?

The Crimson Eye was puzzled. Gao Xuan's spiritual consciousness had completely perished just now, how was he alive again?

Its enormous pupil kept contracting, peering into another world.

Inherent divine techniques allowed it to see through space barriers and see into another world.

Indeed, Gao Xuan in the Blood Dragon Cave was alive. That extremely humble and tiny life even opened his eyes to look at it.

Their gazes met in the void, the enormous Crimson Eye and the ant-like small Gao Xuan.

There was a huge gap in their life forms, yet the Crimson Eye saw disdain in Gao Xuan's small eyes.

"Able to die and be reborn, I underestimated you,"

The Crimson Eye's spiritual power pierced through the space passage, directly blasting Gao Xuan's spirit.

The spiritual power, constrained by Purple Dragon Star, was still very unfriendly to Gao Xuan.

It was like someone using a megaphone to yell in his ear, shaking him until he felt like bursting.

Gao Xuan replied, "Friend, don't shout, you're bleeding already. Don't you want to see a doctor?

"Or perhaps buy a sanitary pad?"

Only then did the Crimson Eye realize it was truly injured. At the bottom of its enormous eyeball, a small wound had been pierced by Gao Xuan's sword.

As a lifeform, the Crimson Eye did have blood. But living for so long, this was the first time it bled.

It was also the first time it saw its own blood, pure crimson, flickering like flames.

Under the eroding negative energy of the void, the blood as red as fire quickly dissipated.

The Crimson Eye felt a strange sensation; it seemed to feel like it was about to die.

It didn't know where this feeling came from, but from deep within its bloodline, its instincts told it this feeling was real.

It, the Crimson Eye, a unique and powerful life in this world, was about to die just like this?

The Crimson Eye felt a bit lost as it looked towards Gao Xuan in another world. Such a lowly and tiny life could hurt it? Even kill it?

Gao Xuan's golden eyes showed a trace of pity: "Indeed, you are about to die. Dying from ignorance and foolishness."

The Crimson Eye was indeed killed by the Godslaying Sword.

If it hadn't looked at its own blood, the wound would have quickly healed, and the blood would have rapidly evaporated without any harm to it.

However, having seen the blood cut by the Godslaying Sword, the Crimson Eye had to abide by the Godslaying Sword's law: seeing blood must die.

This law was the core law of the Godslaying Sword, also its most powerful aspect.

As an Alien God, the Crimson Eye's life level was very high. Its core law was also higher than the Godslaying Sword's level.

But as long as the Crimson Eye's core law didn't cover the Godslaying Sword, it couldn't be immune to the Godslaying Sword's law of "seeing blood must die."

For example, if the Crimson Eye's core law was to not die when seeing blood, or to be invulnerable to sword artifacts, or simply invincibility.

With two conflicting core laws, the Crimson Eye would be able to suppress the Godslaying Sword.

Evidently, the Crimson Eye's core law couldn't cover the Godslaying Sword.

This was the true reason the Godslaying Sword could kill gods.

Otherwise, in terms of level alone, how could a Golden Tier marvel have the right to kill a god?

Just like the powerful divine being, the Master of Blood, must have a core law protecting itself from inevitable death.

Similarly, Luojia, whose power couldn't compare to the Crimson Eye, but her special ability was the Seven Emotions Clone, where each clone was a real body, the Godslaying Sword couldn't kill her with one strike.

The Crimson Eye, this Alien God, lacked sufficient wisdom. Even with tremendous power, it had many flaws.

Like a ferocious tiger in the mountains and forests, ordinary hunters couldn't contend with it. The power difference was too vast.

The tiger thought itself invincible, but when it encountered a hunter with heavy firearms, it was killed with a single shot.

The Crimson Eye was like that, with great power, believing it could crush all humans. Yet it didn't know that in the cosmos, marvels like the Godslaying Sword existed.

After being stabbed by Gao Xuan with the Godslaying Sword, it could only wait obediently for death.

The gigantic eyeball of the Crimson Eye kept contracting and withering, and the red flame in its eyes quickly dimmed.

It was very unwilling, having an absolute advantage but still dying like this...
