Chapter 165 is just damn unlucky.
"Hey hey hey hey..."
Ling Yunxiao felt he had struck it rich, and even considered going to the moon to challenge someone to a duel. He sat on the light boat, letting out bursts of silly laughter.
Leng Xuan and Si Xiaonan, who were in control of the light boat, couldn't help but glance back at Ling Yunxiao, then turned to look at Wang Mian. Wang Mian helplessly pursed his lips and sighed.
"Didn't I tell you before that Yunxiao might have Alzheimer's disease? You didn't believe me, but now you do!"
"Uh-huh……"
"He looks quite sick..."
The three looked at Ling Yunxiao with pity, then sped up again and headed towards Daxia.
A day later, while the group was still traveling through the fog, Nezha's figure reappeared before them.
"Come up, quick! A vast and terrifying monster has appeared out of nowhere and is now in front of Chenlong Pass. The Twelve Golden Immortals, Yang Jian, and Qi Ye are all seriously injured, and Han Shaoyun and Lao Wu are also half dead."
"Right now, the Great Celestial Venerable is leading the Five Emperors in resisting, but they can't hold out for much longer. Those monsters from the Outer Gods of the Kernel System have a corrupting effect; they're truly disgusting."
As Nezha spoke, he landed beside Ling Yunxiao, grabbed Ling Yunxiao's arm, and was about to leave without saying a word.
"Nezha..."
As soon as Wang Mian spoke, he saw Ling Yunxiao's reassuring smile and then fell silent, looking at Ling Yunxiao with eyes full of worry.
"Do not worry……"
Ling Yunxiao smiled at the three people on the light boat, then grabbed Nezha's wrist tightly, urging him to hurry on his way.
An hour later, Ling Yunxiao saw an endless and terrifying presence. Outside the Great Xia Shenlong Pass, there were no mountains or oceans to be seen, and even the mist had mostly dissipated.
However, what came into view were indescribable, terrifying, bizarre, and mysterious things. At the very front of this group of mysterious and bizarre creatures, fighting against the True Martial Emperor was a huge humanoid black shadow. Its face was twisted and terrifying, like a human face that had been pulled and deformed, full of pain. It also often appeared in the gale, its withered long hair swaying in the wind like a ghost along with its body. You could vaguely see a pair of bright red eyes on its face.
Ling Yunxiao frowned slightly, barely recognizing the terrifying and bizarre origin of it.
"Itaqua! It seems that Shub Nicholas is the one attacking Great Xia this time!"
He whispered softly as he landed on the city wall of Chenlong Pass. Looking at the wounded crowd on the wall, Ling Yunxiao suppressed the urge to heal them, took out the Judge's Pen and the Book of Life and Death, and quickly wrote down a line of words.
"Fellow Daoist, please wait."
After writing a line of text, everything around seemed unchanged.
Ling Yunxiao was taken aback for a moment, then looked at the Heavenly Court members who were still fighting outside Chenlong Pass.
"Everyone, please step back!"
Ling Yunxiao shouted loudly, and all the gods outside Chenlong Pass heard him. Zhou Ping spat out a mouthful of blood, but was the first to retreat. Zhenwu Emperor roared and slapped Itakya away in front of him. He also staggered and took a few steps back. Then he was supported by Fengdu Emperor. All the gods of Daxia returned to Chenlong Pass as quickly as possible.
"Roar……"
Excited roars erupted from the strange horde. In their eyes, they had once again repelled their attackers, and soon they would be able to break through the barrier and enter the Great Xia, where they could enjoy more fresh blood and faith.
"Hahahahaha..."
"Hiss..."
Just as the monsters were excitedly screaming and rushing towards Shenlong Pass, everything around them finally changed.
A drop of blood fell from the void and struck Itakya squarely between the eyebrows. It looked up in astonishment, and then its eyes were filled with endless crimson.
Drops of blood appeared instantly from the void, landing among the strange creatures before hovering back in mid-air. They then quickly coalesced into a small stream.
In the blink of an eye, the stream became a river, the river became a lake, and the lake gradually became boundless, transforming into a blood-red ocean.
Within the crimson sea, a phantom of a karmic fire lotus, familiar to Ling Yunxiao, gradually emerged. As the phantom solidified, two longswords, imbued with an aura of slaughter and carnage, suddenly appeared from the sea of blood. Then, the figure of a middle-aged man, dressed in a black Taoist robe with a clean-shaven hairstyle and a face as smooth as jade, slowly appeared atop the karmic fire lotus.
His gaze swept calmly over Shenlong Pass, and he was momentarily taken aback when he saw the Three Pure Ones and the Six Emperors. The combat power of this small world was a bit low! Then, his gaze fell on Ling Yunxiao.
"The Book of Humans in charge? You are indeed a descendant of an old friend. I, the humble Daoist Minghe, have come here to see who dares to deceive the Netherworld into having no one to rely on?"
"Ling Yunxiao, a descendant of the Ancestral God Houtu, greets Ancestor Styx..."
When Ling Yunxiao saw this person appear, he knew that the situation was under control. He bowed respectfully and pointed to the countless strange creatures that filled the sky and the ground outside Chenlong Pass.
Ling Yunxiao was already praying in his heart that Shub Nicholas's true form was also present. He wanted to see whether Shub Nicholas had more offspring or whether there were more Blood God Children in the Sea of Blood.
Following Ling Yunxiao's sharp, hawk-like gaze, Minghe's eyes slowly passed over the towering walls of Chenlong Pass, landing on the scene outside the pass. What came into view were bizarre, grotesque, and terrifying monsters.
These monsters came in all shapes and sizes: some were enormous, covered in countless tentacles that lashed out in the air like octopus tentacles, each gleaming with a chilling light; others had a dozen or so thin, twisted tentacles, like willow branches swaying in the wind, but these tentacles exuded an aura of evil and danger, sending shivers down one's spine; still others resembled the legendary spider demons, but were far more hideous, utterly repulsive. Their bodies were covered in bumpy growths and dark green markings, emitting a pungent, fishy stench.
"Tsk tsk tsk..."
Styx strode out of Chenlong Pass, and in the wind, one could faintly hear his soft muttering:
"It's really unlucky. I was just curious whose descendant could summon me, so I came to take a look."
I'm just a bit of a homebody, but nobody told me that the outside world is developing in such a bizarre and unconventional way.
This pile of hideous, inhumanly grotesque, and utterly pathetic things—does it even deserve my attention? It would sully the very foundations of the Yuan Tu Abi sect; I wouldn't even have a place to wash it clean! If I were to take this out and someone saw it, what would become of my reputation…?
Styx's figure gradually disappeared into the sea of blood, leaving the crowd bewildered and confused in the wind.
Yuanshi Tianzun winked at Ling Yunxiao, whose eyes widened like copper bells. He had considered a million possibilities for the moment the powerful being who appeared in "Fellow Daoist, please stay" would make a move, but he never imagined that the powerful being would feel unlucky and turn around and leave!
