Primordial Era: Starting as a junior disciple of the Chan Sect to attain the Primordial Chaos.

Two menacing swords suddenly appeared from the void.

One sword was as red as blood, and the other was as black as ink.

After the two swords rose from the void, they slashed directly at Hongyun.

Hongyun had been on the run for many years and was exhausted, so he couldn't avoid it and took the hit squarely.

Then it plunged into a sea of ​​blood.

Fortunately, although Hongyun was struck by a sword, his foundation was not damaged.

He quickly adjusted his posture and looked around warily.

At the same time, he also stuffed two innate spiritual fruits into his mouth to recover his magical power and injuries.

same.

The sudden appearance of these two menacing swords also surprised Kunpeng, who had been chasing after them.

Especially after seeing those two menacing swords clearly.

He instantly learned the identity of the owner of the murderous sword.

"Fellow Daoist Styx, since you've already used the Yuan Tu and A Bi swords, why hide your true intentions?"

After Kunpeng's voice faded.

A crimson lotus flower appeared out of thin air in the void deep within the earth.

The lotus flower is eerily blood-red, possessing an innate charm and surging karmic fire erupting from it.

This is a top-grade innate spiritual treasure, the Twelfth Grade Karmic Fire Red Lotus!

The two deadly swords from before instantly landed on either side of the lotus flower.

These two deadly swords are the superior-grade innate spiritual treasure Yuan Tu and the superior-grade innate spiritual treasure A Bi.

Three innate spiritual treasures!

And they're all of high quality!

Such a status would probably tempt even a quasi-saint to have wicked thoughts!

However, faced with these three magical treasures,

Neither Kunpeng nor Hongyun dared to make any rash moves.

This is because the owner of these three spiritual treasures is the Lord of the Netherworld Blood Sea, the Styx Ancestor!

After Pangu separated heaven and earth, he transformed into all things, giving birth to the primordial world.

The foul blood in Pangu's navel is the most filthy thing in the world.

After Pangu fell.

Its foul blood sank to the deepest part of the earth.

It eventually became the Netherworld Blood Sea, a realm of its own.

When the Netherworld was born in later generations, this world was incorporated into the Netherworld.

To become part of the underworld.

As for the River Styx.

He was originally a blood cocoon in the sea of ​​blood. After absorbing the boundless resentment and bloodthirsty power in the sea of ​​blood, he successfully transformed into human form and became the most outstanding innate demon god in the primordial world.

He also possessed three magical treasures.

These are the Yuan Tu Abi swords and the Twelve-Rank Karmic Fire Red Lotus.

Normally, Styx is a homebody, and you could even say he's timid and cautious.

But in reality, Styx is extremely powerful.

With these three innate spiritual treasures, he was virtually unmatched below the level of a sage.

The key is.

After Nuwa created humans and became a saint, the Styx River also wanted to follow suit.

They then created the Asura race within the sea of ​​blood.

Although he ultimately did not achieve sainthood.

However, he also received some genuine merit rewards, and with this, he advanced to the late stage of Quasi-Saint.

The current strength of the Styx River.

He would definitely rank among the top three below a sage.

And it's not necessarily the third.

It can be said that Styx might be no match for Donghuang Taiyi, who possesses the innate treasure Chaos Bell.

When facing other quasi-saints, they can generally hold their own in a head-on confrontation without being at a disadvantage.

So after the River Styx appeared.

That's why Kunpeng and Hongyun are so vigilant.

"Fellow Daoist Styx, I have no grudge against you. Do you intend to make things difficult for me?"

Faced with Hongyun's desperate questioning.

Styx remained indifferent.

"I am willing to pay any price as long as I can attain the Great Dao."

or……

Fellow Daoist, please hand over the Primordial Purple Qi to me directly.

I will now depart.

how?"

After saying this, before Hongyun could respond, Kunpeng beside him couldn't sit still any longer.

"Fellow Daoist, are you pretending I don't exist?"

Styx glanced at Kunpeng, put his hands behind his back, and snorted softly.

"You think you can stop me?"

Upon hearing this, Kunpeng's expression froze.

In a one-on-one fight, he would definitely be no match for Styx.

Even if he possesses a magical book of acquired merit containing three thousand demonic characters.

That was no match for Styx, who had absorbed merits to advance to the late Quasi-Saint stage and possessed three innate spiritual treasures.

the most important is.

This is the Sea of ​​Blood, the territory of the River Styx.

If Styx sets up the Blood Sea Formation here, he will have no chance of winning!

But he can't just give up like that, can he?

Just as Kunpeng was struggling with this dilemma.

In the Blood Sea World, the void suddenly rippled.

next moment.

Two figures stepped out from within.

It's the Demon Emperor Jun and Donghuang Taiyi!

These two men, one with the stride of a dragon and the gait of a tiger, exuded an aura of royalty.

Beside him were two top-grade innate spiritual treasures.

These are the Hetu and Luoshu, respectively.

This is Emperor Jun, the Demon Emperor, who is also the Heavenly Emperor of the Heavenly Court today.

The other person had a majestic and domineering appearance, with an arrogant and unruly expression.

His every move exudes an aura of invincibility, as if he were the only one worthy of respect.

The key is that beside it, there is a divine bell that seems capable of suppressing all ages.

This is the legendary innate treasure, the Chaos Bell, also known as the Eastern Emperor Bell.

This person was none other than Emperor Jun's younger brother, Donghuang Taiyi.

After appearing in the sea of ​​blood, the two stood beside Kunpeng.

Then, they spoke with a cold laugh.

"Fellow Daoist Styx, it's been a long time."

This moment.

Styx's face was extremely grim.

……

Inside the Jade Void Palace.

During this time, Jiang Chuan enjoyed cultivating freely amidst the innate spiritual energy of Yuxu.

This feeling is absolutely wonderful.

Because in such an environment, it's as if you're completely immersed in endless pure spiritual energy.

With each breath, one can feel the growth of their own cultivation.

With every move, the Great Dao seems within reach.

Therefore, Jiang Chuan stayed in Yuxu Palace for a short period of just over a hundred years.

His cultivation level had actually reached the critical point of breakthrough.

It is estimated that in a few decades at most, he will be able to advance to the mid-stage of Golden Immortal.

of course.

Jiang Chuan's progress is due not only to the superior cultivation environment here.

It was also related to his discussions with his fellow disciples, including the Antarctic Immortal.

After all, during that period he had identified and addressed all the shortcomings he had previously overlooked.

The key points of the subsequent realms were also sorted out by the senior brothers.

As a result, Jiang Chuan's cultivation progressed much faster.

but.

Just as Jiang Chuan was preparing to press on and continue accumulating his strength to break through to the mid-stage of the Golden Immortal realm.

Yuanshi, who was above the cliff, suddenly opened his eyes and then did some calculations with his fingers.

After a few breaths, he spoke softly.

"Hongyun has been robbed? So quickly."

And Di Jun and the others have also arrived?

I heard a sound.

Jiang Chuan immediately opened his eyes.

"Master is referring to Ancestor Hongyun?"

Upon hearing Jiang Chuan's question, Yuan Shi did not blame him, but instead offered an explanation.

"Indeed, in the past, your teacher and Hongyun once preached together in Zixiao Palace."

Later, Hongyun gave up his seat to Jieyin and even persuaded Kunpeng to give up his seat to Zhunti.

At the time, Kunpeng was unwilling, but in the end, it was his master who forced him to give up the last seat on the prayer mat, which was also the last holy position.

Hongyun is now being hunted down by Kunpeng.

"Speaking of this matter, it can be said that Hongyun bore the consequences for her master."

After hearing these words, Jiang Chuan nodded.

"Is Master going to intervene and save Senior Hongyun?"

Yuanshi pondered for a moment and then said.

"I will save him, but I'd like to wait a bit longer."

After all, saving a primordial demon god possessing primordial purple energy would create a huge karmic entanglement.

Moreover, as I just calculated, Hongyun's calamity is not accidental, but preordained.

Therefore, when necessary, I will protect a wisp of his soul so that he will not perish.

But to save them all is probably unrealistic.

After hearing Yuanshi's answer, Jiang Chuan suddenly spoke in a deep voice.

"If possible, this disciple would like to think that Master should try to preserve as much of Senior Hongyun's remnant soul as possible."
