Chapter 166 Blood Sea and Styx
Just as Ling Yunxiao was about to say something to persuade him to stay, the sea of blood above the void suddenly fell.
“You ugly creatures dare to bully the descendants of my old friend. Even if I have to suppress my disgust, I absolutely cannot let you live.”
The moment the Styx River's icy voice rang out, an endless sea of blood appeared outside Shenlong Pass, engulfing all the strange creatures of the Ke type that were charging towards Shenlong Pass into the sea of blood.
Then, tall figures emerged from the sea of blood. Upon closer inspection, these figures were tall and mighty, the men handsome and strong, and the women beautiful and alluring.
"The Asura race? It's clear that Ancestor Styx doesn't even want to use the Blood God Child!"
Ling Yunxiao sighed softly, but upon seeing the appearance of the Asura race created by Styx, he realized how much he disliked these strange creatures of the K-type; they were so ugly that they crossed Styx's bottom line.
The Asura race appeared in the sea of blood, carrying knives, forks, and longswords. As they floated and sank in the sea of blood, they easily shattered one after another of the monsters that countered their element.
"Don't let these monstrous things defile the Blood Sea of the Cult Leader. If future Asura clansmen turn out like this, I'd rather grind millstones in the eighteenth level of hell than return to the Blood Sea!"
"Exactly, after you kill this thing, be careful and throw it directly into the sea eye! Anyway, it's in the empty space below the sea eye."
"Demon General, this is a phantom of the Blood Sea, where did the sea eye and the void come from?"
"Uh... then grind them to ashes, that should do, right?"
"..."
It's clear that even the Asura race shares the same attitude towards the Styx's strange and oppressive nature. Disgust and revulsion are clearly visible on every Asura's face.
Ling Yunxiao flipped through the Book of Life and Death and found that a large amount of reincarnation power was entering his account every minute. He then looked up at the void above and solemnly bowed to the Styx River.
"Thank you for your help, Ancestor..."
After saying this, he took out his judge's pen and began to write: one by one, the characters for "heal" and "dispel" appeared under his pen.
Inside Chenlong Pass, those who were either on the verge of death or seriously injured and unconscious have all recovered and are now healthy. When they look up and see Ling Yunxiao on the city wall, they are somewhat surprised, and then they look outside Chenlong Pass.
What came into view was an endless sea of blood, and within it, countless handsome men and beautiful women, armed with knives and forks, were swiftly and cleanly seizing up the strange and monstrous creatures of the Kelvin type, dismembering them, setting them ablaze with karmic fire, and reducing their bones to ashes...
"Yunxiao, you're back..."
Wu Tongxuan stood up and ran excitedly to Ling Yunxiao. After greeting Ling Yunxiao, he looked at the sea of blood in front of him, and there was a sense of déjà vu about it.
"This little guy is interesting..."
The Styx River's voice rang out leisurely, and the next second, Wu Tongxuan appeared in front of the Styx River, who looked Wu Tongxuan up and down with a slightly cold gaze.
“I have no avatar in this world. You learned the Blood God Child's supernatural powers from here, and you even survived the tempering of the Karmic Fire Red Lotus? That’s very abnormal!”
"Uh... it was a powerful figure invited by Yunxiao who said I was suitable for this forbidden realm and gave me a drop of blood to learn it."
Wu Tongxuan dared not reveal Shen Tu's identity directly, but he also dared not conceal it from the person in front of him.
"Tsk tsk... This is even more unacceptable. The Blood God Children I sent out were all left behind to harm people. Let alone learning supernatural powers, even if a saint wanted to refine them, they would be defiled..."
"Ahem... Since we are destined to meet, and you have by chance obtained the Blood God's inheritance, why not come with me! This world is not conducive to your cultivation."
"I'm sorry, young man, I know you are a great power from the upper realm, but as you have seen, my country, my home, my relatives and friends are resisting foreign enemies and enduring suffering."
Therefore, even if becoming your disciple is an unparalleled opportunity, I can only blame my own lack of fortune and virtue, and I am unworthy of your favor.
Wu Tongxuan knelt and bowed respectfully to the Styx River. He used to greatly admire Leng Xuan. However, when it came to his own turn, he realized that rather than giving up everything here to become a disciple of a powerful figure, he would rather stay and fight alongside his teammates, even if it meant dying in battle.
"You are quite good, but someone as pure as you is indeed not suitable for my path. I still need to take back the Blood God Child within you."
As Styx spoke, his expression changed. Ling Yunxiao was about to take a step forward when he received a smiling look from Styx. Ling Yunxiao immediately stopped, a smile involuntarily creeping onto his lips. He thought to himself, "Old Wu is a cunning man, more shrewd than a ghost. He'll definitely pass the test!"
Sure enough, after hearing Styx's words, Wu Tongxuan raised his eyes and smiled slightly.
"You misunderstand. I didn't steal your skills. However, you don't need to lift a finger; I can return the Blood God Child to you."
As soon as Wu Tongxuan finished speaking, his aura and power underwent a dramatic transformation. The aura that had previously resembled that of the Styx River had vanished completely. He stood there smiling and cheerful, like an ordinary mortal who had nothing but lived a peaceful and contented life.
[Formless] can transform into [Myriad Manifestations] through the Blood God Child, and naturally, he can also relinquish this ability and revert to [Formless]. At this moment, having not absorbed any divine abilities, he appears as an ordinary mortal.
"Hahaha... I take back what I just said. It's not that you're not suited for my path, it's that you're extremely suited for it. Your trick of stealing the sky and changing the sun is indeed quite impressive!"
Since you are unwilling to leave with me and have become entangled in my karma, why don't you build the River Styx in this world? Here you go…”
Styx laughed loudly and made a move. With a wave of his hand, a stream of water gushed out from the sea of blood and landed in front of Wu Tongxuan.
"..."
Wu Tongxuan not only didn't accept it, but also subconsciously took two steps back.
"Uh... Ancestor Styx, you just said that none of the things you sent out were given with good intentions..."
Ling Yunxiao stood on the city wall of Chenlong Pass and spoke weakly.
"Noisy!"
Styx sneered, and the sea of blood landed on Wu Tongxuan without warning. Wu Tongxuan immediately sat cross-legged and began to cultivate the Dao of the Blood Sea. He had already discovered that this was not a copy of the Divine Ruins by [Formless], but a true path of cultivation, just like Leng Xuan's [Five Emperors Technique].
Seeing that Wu Tongxuan had indeed mastered the basics, Styx nodded in satisfaction and waved his hand again in the sea of blood. The phantoms of Yuan Tu and Abi Sword separated into two identical swords, which landed between Wu Tongxuan's eyebrows and disappeared directly into his body.
"These two sword shadows will become your natal spiritual treasures. Remember, the greatest advantage of these two swords is that they can kill without incurring karmic consequences, meaning there will be no issue of retribution. Wielding these swords, you will be able to slay the heavens, slay the earth, and slay all living beings..."
