Primordial Era: A God-Level Choice, Possessing Zhao Gongming at the Start.

Chapter 122 Styx Makes a Move, Tongtian Appears!

Although Dao Ancestor Hongjun only had four direct disciples—the Three Pure Ones and Nuwa—and two nominal disciples—Zhunti and Jieyin.

However, among the three thousand guests in Zixiao Palace, Styx was also present, and he had a master-disciple relationship with Hongjun.

It's not excessive for Zhao Gongming to address him as "Uncle-Master".

Styx sat atop the Twelve-Petaled Red Lotus of Karmic Fire, his eyes calm as he swept over Zhao Gongming and Mosquito Daoist.

An immense crisis loomed over everyone.

Liu Er, who had always fought against heaven and earth and never yielded, was now trembling. It wasn't that Liu Er was afraid, but that he was being suppressed on a life level.

As for the Golden-Winged Roc, it was even less likely to be mentioned; it had long been so frightened that it hid behind Zhao Gongming, not daring to utter a sound.

Styx, the progenitor of the path of slaughter, whose swords have killed countless people.

He has more than ten Quasi-Saints and Great Cultivators, making him a complete and utter god of slaughter, feared by everyone in the primordial world.

Meanwhile, in the Shangqing Palace on Kunlun Mountain, Tongtian's thoughts trembled slightly, as if he had sensed something. He opened his eyes and began to calculate with his fingers.

A moment later, his eyes narrowed, fixed on the direction of the sea of ​​blood, "The Blood Sea and the Styx!"

On a whim, he left Shangqing Palace.

Nine heavens above, amidst a vast sea of ​​clouds, Styx glanced indifferently at Zhao Gongming, "Release the Four Demon Kings."

"Yes, Uncle-Master."

Zhao Gongming acted swiftly and decisively, activating the Hunyuan Golden Cauldron to release the four members of the Zizaitian Bo Xun group.

The four of them felt dizzy and disoriented, and then they saw Zhao Gongming and his group.

Brahma roared, "Zhao Gongming, how dare you! Do you think you can defy my Blood Sea just because you have two magic treasures?"

Just as Brahma was rubbing his hands together, ready to make a move, a cold, sharp voice suddenly rang in his ears.

"Four Great Luo Perfection cultivators couldn't even catch a mosquito! Useless trash, step down!"

"Ancestor?"

The four demon kings quickly turned around, respectfully obeyed, and stepped aside.

Zhao Gongming laughed and said, "Uncle-Master Styx, the Four Demon Kings have been released. May I leave now?"

Styx is eccentric and unscrupulous; he doesn't want to have anything to do with him.

Styx remained expressionless and said calmly, "Hand over Mosquito Daoist as well, and I will let you go out of respect for your status as one of the Three Pure Ones."

"Uncle Styx, Mosquito Daoist has already made a Great Dao Oath and voluntarily serves me as his master."

With a flick of his wrist, Zhao Gongming produced a miniature mosquito in his palm, its soul imprint aura identical to that of the Mosquito Daoist.

"The oath of the Great Dao?"

Styx's pupils contracted slightly, then his eyes darkened as he began to ponder.

Mosquito Taoist also played a huge role for him. First, the Blood Sea Origin actually gave birth to two beings.

First, it's him; second, it's Mosquito Taoist.

However, he took the initiative to transform and devoured half of the Mosquito Taoist's essence.

This is why the transformation of the mosquito into human form was delayed by billions of years.

If he could devour the remaining half of Mosquito Taoist's essence, his cultivation would surely increase once again.

But this Mosquito Taoist had made a solemn vow to uphold the Great Dao, and Zhao Gongming was a disciple of the Three Pure Ones. If he were truly killed, it would cause trouble.

Styx pondered for a moment, then his expression returned to calm.

"The Mosquito Daoist is a creature of my Blood Sea. Since you have taken it, you shall exchange it for something else."

"What is it?"

"That spatial magic item in your hand."

The spatial-type spiritual treasure naturally refers to the Hunyuan Golden Cauldron.

Zhao Gongming laughed and said, "Then, Uncle Styx, how are you going to explain the Four Demon Kings' attack on me?"

"The Four Demon Kings have attacked you?"

Styx shook his head, glancing indifferently at Mara and the others, "You attacked him?"

"No!"

The four demon kings said in unison.

Styx smiled faintly at Zhao Gongming, "Hand over that treasure in three breaths, or even if you are a disciple of the Three Pure Ones, this old ancestor will not show any mercy."

Zhao Gongming smiled slightly and took out the jade talisman that Tongtian had given him long ago. "Uncle-Master Styx, take a look at this."

As early as when Zhao Gongming subdued Mosquito Taoist, he had used a jade talisman to remind Tongtian that his master should already be on his way.

"The Heaven-Reaching Sword Talisman?"

A cold smile flashed across Styx's face. "Even if Tongtian himself comes, I will not fear. What is a mere magic jade talisman?"

After Styx finished speaking, his five fingers formed a hook shape, and then he slowly reached out to grab Zhao Gongming.

It appeared to be just a simple claw strike, but it carried boundless power of laws, like a world itself, as it crushed towards Zhao Gongming.

"The Apricot Yellow Flag of the Wuji Era!"

"Mysterious Origin Water Control Flag!"

"The Primordial Golden Cauldron!"

In an instant, Zhao Gongming activated three top-grade innate spiritual treasures, which he placed in front of him to block the way.

"boom!"

A tremendous roar resounded, and in an instant, the Wuji Apricot Yellow Flag was knocked away by the Styx River.

Then, the Xuan Yuan Water Control Flag and the Hun Yuan Golden Bucket, which lasted for about a moment, were also knocked away.

The endless bloodline killing laws surged towards Zhao Gongming like a tidal wave.

Just as they were about to suppress Zhao Gongming and seize the Hunyuan Golden Bucket.

A soft hum echoed through the sea of ​​clouds, overturning countless cloud clusters.

"Styx, how dare you lay a hand on my disciple!"

The next moment, a towering sword light ripped through space, dazzling beyond description, and met the endless blood-slaughtering laws.

"boom!"

A tremendous roar resounded, and earth-shattering ripples of Daoist essence swept across the sea of ​​clouds, slicing the massive cloud mass into countless tiny particles.

The sword light and the supreme bloodline killing law both dissipated into nothingness.

The next moment, the vast space seemed to turn into a blank sheet of paper and was divided in two.

Tongtian stood with his hands behind his back and slowly stepped out. The supreme sword aura flowed around him, and an incomparably sharp aura seemed to be able to split the sky in two!

"Are you alright?"

Tongtian looked at Zhao Gongming and asked softly.

"Reporting to Master, your disciple is unharmed."

Zhao Gongming patted his chest, thankful that his master had arrived in time; otherwise, given Styx's methods, he might have really taken away his Hunyuan Golden Cauldron.

"You go outside first, leave this place to me."

Tongtian gave Zhao Gongming a reassuring look.

"Yes, Master."

Zhao Gongming did not try to be brave. He directly used the Golden Light of Leaping Earth to escape into the distance with Mosquito Taoist, Golden Wings, and Six Ears.

Judging from the situation, it seems that my master is going to have a battle with Uncle Styx.

Both were top-tier quasi-saint cultivators. One was transformed from the primordial spirit of Pangu, possessing unique advantages, and could shatter eternity with a single sword strike.

One is the overlord of the Blood Sea, who has killed more than ten quasi-saints under his command.

If the two sides clash, and he is caught in the crossfire, even if he has the Wuji Apricot Yellow Banner and the Xuan Yuan Water Control Banner protecting him, he will not escape the fate of death and annihilation.

Above the endless clouds, Tongtian stood with his hands behind his back, facing the Styx River.

"Tongtian, your disciples have abducted my Blood Sea beings. How will you explain this to the Ancestor?"

Tongtian snorted lightly, "What's so special about kidnapping a mosquito? I haven't even investigated the matter of your four demon kings attacking my disciple yet."

Styx's face darkened. "How arrogant! This ancestor would like to see just how capable the Three Pure Ones of Kunlun really are!"

"Splash!"

Suddenly, a vast sea of ​​blood appeared above the Styx River!

Fish and shrimp do not thrive, and even floating insects do not float. Amidst the churning of the blood-red sea, towering waves are unleashed!

As the sea of ​​blood appeared, an unparalleled pressure filled the heavens, instantly alarming countless cultivators in the primordial world.

"Such a powerful aura! This is the Blood Sea Styx Ancestor!"

"Another aura... such pure swordsmanship... could it be the Celestial Venerable Lingbao?"

"Among those who cultivate the sword path in the primordial world, besides the Celestial Venerable Lingbao, who else could stand against the Ancestor of the Styx River!"
