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

Chapter 393 The Styx Appears, Red Lotus Karmic Fire

The crimson figure appeared, and Zhunti was taken aback at first. The next moment, his eyes narrowed sharply, and an indescribable, bone-deep sense of danger surged into his heart.

Danger! He actually sensed a long-lost aura of danger from the blood-red figure before him!

"Who goes there? Show yourself before me at once!"

Zhunti could sense an extremely familiar aura emanating from this figure.

But upon closer examination, one cannot discern who it is.

When the Dao Ancestor used the power of the Creation Jade Tablet to stabilize the primordial world and divide it into three realms, he had already sealed away the human realm.

Even if a saint like him were to intervene, there would be absolutely no way he could get in.

How did the person in front of me get in?

As they spoke, the crimson light surrounding the blood-red figure began to dissipate.

It dissipated extremely quickly, almost instantly revealing the Styx River.

"The sage is so forgetful; has he forgotten the days he listened to lectures three times in the Purple Cloud Palace?"

Styx looked at Zhunti with a smile, seemingly indifferent.

"The River Styx!"

Zhunti's pupils contracted slightly, his eyes revealing obvious shock.

It seems they never expected that the River Styx would appear here!

But immediately, Zhunti relaxed completely. If it was just Styx, a mere Quasi-Saint, then it was nothing to fear.

"Fellow Daoist Styx, what brings you to the mortal realm without warning? Have you forgotten the words left behind by the Dao Ancestor when the primordial world was shattered?"

Zhunti, looking down from his superior position, began to question him.

A smile suddenly appeared on Styx's lips.

"I've come this time, of course, for you, Sage!"

"Blood River Formation!"

Styx suddenly let out a soft shout, and behind him appeared an incredibly astonishing celestial image—a boundless sea of ​​blood.

The vast ocean of blood is composed of countless blood-red droplets.

Every drop of blood contains boundless malevolent energy, capable of polluting the heavens above and invading the earth below!

At this moment, the boundless bloodthirsty energy, under the control of the Styx River, transformed into intricate and profound runes.

Countless crimson runes shone brightly and flew out rapidly.

Almost instantly, it spread in all directions.

The sea of ​​blood boiled, and the murderous aura soared to the heavens, pressing down on the nine heavens for eternity, causing the sun, moon, and stars to dim.

It sends chills down your spine, makes you tremble all over, and makes your hair stand on end!

Zhunti glanced indifferently at the Blood River Formation, his eyes growing colder.

"There seems to be no conflict between the West and you, Fellow Daoist Styx. Why then do you choose to be an enemy of the West?"

Styx chuckled, "I naturally have no intention of being an enemy of the West. However, since my birth, my swords, Avici and Yuantu, have drunk the blood of all living beings in the world, yet I have never tasted the blood of a saint. Today, by chance, although you are not a true saint, you are still an incarnation of the saint's essence. Killing you will be a taste of saintly blood!"

Styx licked his lips, his murderous intent undisguised.

A pair of deep, cold eyes were fixed on Zhunti, filled with murderous intent.

"He's absolutely insane!"

Zhunti's expression suddenly changed, and he began to curse loudly!

The idea that all beings below the level of a sage are like ants has taken deep root in the hearts of all living beings in the primordial world.

Besides Styx, there's probably no one else who could have planned and carried out the massacre of a saint.

"Abi, Yuantu!"

But Styx had no intention of wasting words with Zhunti. What he had said before was just to buy time and set up the Blood River Formation.

Setting up the Blood River Formation is only the first step in slaying the Saint!

Two streaks of blood-red light flashed in the void, and two phantom swords had somehow flown behind the River Styx.

Then, it swiftly sliced ​​through the void, striking Zhunti from the left and right.

The two divine swords were originally top-grade innate spiritual treasures, and killing someone would not incur any karmic consequences.

At this moment, while stabbing towards Zhunti, it was also continuously absorbing the evil energy emanating from the Blood River Formation, and its power had risen to its peak.

Even if the opponent was a Quasi-Saint Great Perfection cultivator, he could not resist. In an instant, his body was tainted by the sword energy and he was seriously injured.

"They actually dared to make a move! How audacious and presumptuous!"

Zhunti's face was so gloomy it seemed like water could drip from it. As a saint, he should regard cultivators below the saint level as ants.

But now, he is repeatedly provoked by ants, how can he not be angry?

"boom!"

A surge of energy, like a tsunami, suddenly erupted from Zhunti's body.

Although not a saint, he is infinitely close to a saint, possessing the aura of a quasi-saint!

The aura of a near-saint was terrifying; the moment it erupted, it caused the two divine swords, Abi and Yuantu, in mid-air to pause abruptly.

"The Seven Wonderful Trees!"

With a soft shout, Zhunti unleashed a torrent of powerful magic at the Quasi-Saint level, which surged and gathered in mid-air.

Ultimately, it transformed into the Seven Wonderful Treasure Tree, the treasure through which Cundi attained enlightenment.

Although it was just a Seven Wonders Tree formed from magical power, its aura was in no way inferior to the real Seven Wonders Tree!

"go!"

With a sudden wave of his hand, Zhunti unleashed the Seven Wonders Tree, carrying unparalleled power, which hurtled towards Avici and Yuan Tu!

"boom!"

In mid-air, two indescribable Dao essences collided, stirring up gusts of earth, fire, water, and wind.

The sage is indeed a sage; even a mere wisp of his being possesses supreme power.

Under the powerful onslaught of the Seven Wonders Tree, Abi and Yuan Tu were swept away.

The light on the Seven Wonders Tree dimmed slightly as it swept away Abi, Yuantu, and the other creatures, before rushing towards the River Styx once more.

"As expected of a saint's avatar, truly formidable!"

All of this seemed to have been anticipated by Styx.

With a wave of his hand, the Twelve-Petaled Karmic Fire Lotus flew out, its surface ablaze with endless karmic fire—the very fire that burns away one's true spirit and primordial soul.

It is extremely terrifying. Even a Great Luo Golden Immortal would perish and be consumed by the karmic fire if he were to be tainted even slightly.

Moreover, in Styx's hands, the Twelve-Grade Karmic Fire Lotus absorbed the endless malevolent energy of the Blood Sea day and night, making its karmic fire even more ferocious.

In the blink of an eye, the Red Lotus Karmic Fire collided with the Seven Wonders Tree in mid-air.

The karmic fire burned on the Seven Wonderful Treasure Tree, making a sizzling sound, and the great magical power between them was in conflict.

After an unknown amount of time, the two reached a critical point and a terrifying explosion occurred!

"boom!"

The supreme Dao essence swept across the nine heavens and ten earths, causing the Blood River Formation to shake and make cracking sounds!

The impact of the Dao transcends the mortal realm, reaching the realm of earthly immortals and the netherworld, stirring up the earth, fire, water, and wind, causing endless chaos to tremble and billions of star rivers to shake!

Such a commotion almost instantly alarmed countless powerful beings in the Earthly Immortal Realm!

The Queen Mother of the West, Zhen Yuanzi, the great powers of the human race, and countless Great Luo Immortals all focused their attention on the Earthly Immortal Realm. When they saw the scene of Zhunti and Styx fighting, they all gasped and their faces showed undisguised shock!

"That's the River Styx! He's actually attacking a saint!"

"Styx, is he courting death? All beings below the level of a sage are but ants. How can an ant possibly contend with a sage!"

"Incredible! Absolutely audacious!"

This scene in the human realm is destined to be recorded in history, to be witnessed by all beings of the past, present, and future.
