Conferred Gods: Start with a Phoenix clone

Chapter 1742 Blood God

After discussing it, Styx and his four disciples decided to cooperate in staging a grand show to deliver the double to Zhao Gongming. The specific arrangements would be discussed among the four disciples themselves.

"Teacher, we disciples take our leave."

"Yes, go ahead. There are no mercy on the battlefield, so be careful."

"I will keep my teacher's instructions in mind."

After discussing the details, Danzhu led the three of them away.

In less than the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Danzhu quietly returned.

"Teacher, why did you contact me using your divine sense before?"

Styx said earnestly, "Danzhu, you are destined to be an emperor and are my most valued disciple. I have a secret to tell you. Some of your junior brothers and sisters are colluding with those Jie Sect immortals and trying to betray me."

Danzhu was initially furious, but then said resolutely, "Please tell me the name of the traitor, and I will definitely clean house for you!"

Styx waved his hand: "I'm getting old and don't want to do these fighting things anymore. You know that. What's real is fake, and fake is real. I've prepared a backup plan long ago."

As he finished speaking, another double, identical to Styx, stepped out.

Danzhu's eyes widened. He had already arranged for the previous substitute to be placed in the Blood God Palace to formally receive the worship of the Asuras. How come another one has appeared here? Does this mysterious and unpredictable supernatural power come without any cost?

After a cup of tea, Danzhu took away another substitute. Minghe said that the first substitute was to test the disciple's loyalty, but this second one was the key. He told Danzhu to give the substitute to Zhao Gongming at the crucial moment.

A quarter of an hour later, Fly Taoist arrived at Styx as agreed, also as "my most valued disciple," and also took away a substitute.

Fifteen minutes later, Xiang Liu arrived. He repeated the same thing over and over, and this man also took a stand-in with him.

Finally, Uncle Tu arrived, repeating the same old story in a different guise, and in the end, he also took away a stand-in.

Styx stood at the highest point of the palace and looked out. In fact, he didn't know which of the four disciples was trustworthy and which was not. It didn't matter. He had made arrangements for them all. Surely not all four of them would be problematic?

He prepared many stand-ins. Initially, it was Ashura who was 70-80% similar to him. Later, he could also use someone who was 50-60% similar. He was self-taught and had mastered plastic surgery techniques. As long as the height, weight and body were not too different, they could basically be made into his stand-ins.

Very few primordial immortals have truly seen the true face of the Styx River. It's enough if it looks similar; the key is the blood essence belonging to the Blood God Child.

He muttered to himself, "I hope everything goes well. I really don't like fighting with you youngsters."

Without alerting anyone, he transformed into a streak of blood-red light and vanished into the horizon.

When he reappeared, he had arrived in a deep underground cave.

The blood here is not the traditional bright red, but indigo blue. It has a fragrant aroma that is intoxicating. If one's willpower is not strong enough, one might even remain intoxicated for a thousand years.

Styx has an extremely strong resistance to blood, completely ignoring the temptation of blue blood, and walks lightly into the depths of the cave as if on flat ground.

After walking for most of the day, he arrived at a dazzling stone pillar. Upon closer inspection, he discovered that the pillar was entirely composed of indigo blood essence, having undergone countless transformations over time, changing from liquid to solid. Styx spoke, "Senior Blood God, the Primordial Heavenly Dao must have already noticed your existence, otherwise it wouldn't have dispatched a large army to the Blood Sea."

The Blood God inside the stone pillar was neither male nor female, and his voice was ethereal, like singing: "I was killed by Pangu and have been wandering in this primordial world for countless years. Since the primordial world cannot tolerate me, then let it turn the world upside down. Styx."

"The disciple is here."

"I want blood, I want more blood!"

"Disciple, obey."

The four disciples all knew there was a traitor in the group, and they all knew they were the traitors themselves. At the same time, they also had a substitute for the Styx Ancestor. How could they maximize their benefits? Naturally, they would sell the substitute to the allied forces as the real one.

Having already fallen into a sea of ​​blood, they naturally wouldn't be morally upright gentlemen. In any case, since they couldn't tell the truth from the River Styx, they would have an excuse even if things were exposed.

They each contacted their former superiors. Don't be fooled by their disguises as monks and Taoists; they are not actually spies. It's not difficult to guess their true identities.

Unable to find Duobao, the Fly Taoist, in her madness and without much restraint, randomly found two disciples of the Jie Sect and simply said, "I have important clues about the Styx Ancestor's seclusion. Do you want to make a contribution?"
The fact that Fairy Caiyun dared to attack Yuanshi Tianzun is an isolated case within the Jie Sect and is not worthy of widespread discussion. The remaining disciples of the Jie Sect are generally quite cautious.

What is my strength? What is the strength of the Styx Ancestor? Can I fight the Styx Ancestor?

This kind of problem doesn't need to be considered at all, but the information is indeed very important. Several disciples of the Jie Sect prepared to contact experts for help and then attack after confirming the location.

Tu Bo lost Luo Xuan's channel, and he was quite foolish to directly send his ghost soldiers to Fengdu Mountain to report the news. After receiving the news, San Yisheng also sent ghost generals to contact the experts in the allied forces. Anyway, it was a matter of taking a chance, and what if it was true?

In short, the four of them forcibly contacted their superiors and each sold their Styx Ancestor for a good price.

“Uncle-Master Huanglong, we have confirmed that the Styx Demon was seriously injured while suppressing an Asura rebellion and is currently in seclusion to recuperate.”

Several disciples of the Jie Sect found Huanglong Zhenren.

This guy is easy to talk to, strong, and well-known for his poverty, making him the perfect candidate to be a henchman.

Upon hearing this, Huang Long exclaimed, "Is this really a good thing?"
By capturing the Styx Ancestor and then publicly executing him, he would undoubtedly gain both fame and fortune.

Yu Xu commented on the current Styx Ancestor.

The Styx River is much weaker than outsiders expected. Yu Xu believes that the first generation Styx River went to Zixiao Palace to listen to the Dao, and that one was the strongest. The second generation Styx River was converted and became Minghe River, taking away most of its magic power. The current third generation Styx River is an outstanding one who fought his way out of the consciousness of many Blood God Sons. He is considered strong at the level of Blood God Sons, but at the greater level of the Primordial World, he is only of average level.

Guangchengzi and Chijingzi also agreed with this view.

For Huanglong, the Styx River was nothing to fear. Wasn't it said that he was seriously injured and in seclusion? A weakened Styx River, seriously injured, how could he not defeat him? Even if he really couldn't defeat him, he could still escape. He was confident of that.

"Alright, my fellow disciples, lead the way! I'll go with you."
