Since he had no other option, he refused to back down and said to Loki, "Trust me when I say that I am not bluffing. I will tell everyone I know about your secret, including the fact that you can assimilate Cave Heaven and law fragments of different kinds."
"I will hold nothing back. After all, I have nothing left to lose."
He isn’t actually sure that Loki can assimilate law fragments of various kinds. But he is suspicious of it because he didn’t recognize Loki as any swordsman of his sect or see any signs of the law fragments of the Sword Pathway on Loki. Yet, Loki was able to absorb the law fragments in his Cave Heaven without any adverse reaction.
This is something he saw at the beginning of their fight in his Cave Heaven. And if his suspicion were true, it would explain how Loki could create the trail of emptiness in the second heaven.
His thought process seems reasonable to him. He just doesn’t have concrete proof, which is why he is not sure of his accusation.
But being uncertain is not going to stop him from telling everyone what he knows. He will even embellish what he tells people in hopes that it will make a lot of people interested in Loki.
However, Loki still refused to budge. His voice came back nonchalant as he said, "Do whatever you want, crazy man."
The swordsman still didn’t want to die, so he said, "What if I give you the recipe to my Sword Storm Metac? You can use it to refine the Sword Storm Metac."
In response, Loki said, "And why would I want your Divine Metac? I am not a sword cultivator."
His reply was negative, but the swordsman was elated to hear what he said.
The swordsman screamed, saying, "Ah ha. I knew it. I knew you were not a swordsman. You’re not a swordsman, yet you absorbed the law fragments from my Cave Heaven."
He believed that he had Loki on the ropes, but Loki said with an unconcerned tone, "It seems the damage to your mind is more serious than I thought. You can’t even remember how I beat you."
This made the swordsman shout at him and say, "Curse you."
Then he stopped speaking with Loki.
Since it appeared that they wouldn’t be able to come to an agreement, he decided to go ahead with his threats. So he began sending messages about everything he knew about Loki to everyone he had ever met in the Blessed Heaven World.
On the other side, in the second heaven, Loki was still fighting. When messages stopped coming from the swordsman, Loki scoffed and said in annoyance, "Why can’t he just die in peace? This is the kind of useless stubbornness that robbed me of my loot. Now he wants to create trouble for me after his death?"
The swordsman had offered a deal not to cause trouble for him, but he didn’t even consider accepting it because it would be all the confirmation needed to prove that what the swordsman suspected was true.
As for why he is determined to continue spending more of his lifespan to kill the swordsman even though he won’t gain anything from it, it is all because he can afford to spend the lifespan to get rid of the swordsman.
Besides his need for vendetta, it wasn’t as if the swordsman wouldn’t try to threaten him with the suspicions just because he didn’t try to kill the swordsman.
If the swordsman was hale and hearty after their fight, the swordsman was still going to threaten to tell everyone what he knew about Loki. So Loki felt that it was a good idea to kill the swordsman.
After thinking about this for a while, he got back to the matter at hand. Right now, the divine beings of the Four Directions Sect were winning the fight for the three continents because they were more than cultivators of the other sects.
As he watched, the divine beings of the Four Directions Sect had banded together to get rid of the divine beings of the other sect. Loki found the whole process novel since it was the cultivators of the other sects that band together to beat the people of the Four Directions Sect.
This move caught many people off guard and gave the people of the Four Directions Sect an advantage in the struggle. Eventually, the divine beings of the other sects were defeated.
Once the cultivators of the other sects were forced to give up, the fighting stopped. The divine beings of the Four Directions Sect stopped fighting and decided to negotiate among themselves to determine who would get the three continents.
At that point, one of the money cultivators suggested that they bid for the three continents. The other pathways didn’t like this suggestion as it meant that the money cultivators would have an advantage.
Eventually, after some back and forth, the cultivators of the Money Pathway, Forging Pathway, and Enslavement Pathway supported the suggestion to bid. The other two pathways were poorer and were bound to lose in a bidding war, but they were outnumbered.
There was also the fact that the losers would gain some lifespan. In light of the fact that they had lost a lot of lifespan in the fight to secure the three continents, the cultivators of the Death Pathway and Mind Hunter Pathway decided to go along with the bidding.
While this peaceful competition was going on in the second heaven, the mortal realm had been thrown into turmoil because a Divine Position had become free.
This wouldn’t be the first time that a Divine Position had become free recently. Just over two years ago, one Divine Position became free. But that Divine Position was filled a few seconds after it became free.
But this Divine Position was different. No one seemed to have planned for it to be free, so it was right there for anyone to take. This caused another round of fighting to start among the mortals.
