Chapter 137 The Great Dao Has No Bounds
What is the ultimate state of the Primordial Golden Immortal?
Is it Rahu, whose cultivation level is close to that of a Grand Luo Golden Immortal, who absorbed the calamity energy generated by the battle between the three innate races and the many races under his command in the previous great calamity?
It was Hongjun, who was at the peak of the Hunyuan Golden Immortal realm, who had severed his three corpses, and whose spiritual treasures for severing his three corpses were all of extremely high quality, capable of rivaling Luo.
Or is it the rumor that even Hongjun couldn't do anything to Yangmei?
In the Purple Cloud Palace, sitting upright on a futon, Styx was enlightened.
The strongest Hunyuan Jin—that's me!
Within the Styx Primordial Spirit, inside the Chaos Pearl, boundless chaos boiled and surged, and the Three Thousand Great Daos manifested, but only for a moment. Yet, that moment was enough.
"Slay!" Styx spat out chaos, using the Chaos Pearl to sever another corpse.
The corpse severed at this moment is called the "corpse-holding," which also confirms the deepest obsession in Styx's heart: cultivation.
As the Styx River severed another corpse, the surrounding chaos gathered here, eventually coalescing into a figure whose entire body was shrouded in chaos, making it impossible to see its face.
The aura of the corpse-bearer far surpasses that of the benevolent corpse in the River Styx.
As Styx severed another corpse with the help of the Chaos Pearl and received some of the blessing of the three thousand Great Daos within the Chaos Pearl, his cultivation level rapidly improved to a realm that Styx himself could not have imagined before.
The method of severing the three corpses involves entrusting one's own three corpses to an innate spiritual treasure, thereby comprehending the Great Dao within the innate, indestructible spiritual light of the treasure. Styx used the Chaos Pearl to sever his corpses, so he could naturally comprehend the power of the laws within the Chaos Pearl. However, the power of the laws within the Chaos Pearl was simply too strong, making it difficult for Styx to grasp all the power of the laws within the spiritual treasure and comprehend them one by one as easily as he could with the Qiankun Cauldron.
"Congratulations, fellow Daoist, on reaching the Half-Saint realm." The figure formed from chaos looked at the Styx River and bowed.
"A demigod?" Styx murmured to himself.
"In the eyes of all living beings in the primordial world, your abilities are now no different from those of a saint. However, you have not yet attained the Dao Fruit of the Primordial Golden Immortal, so you are not a saint. Let's just call you a 'half-saint'," said the Corpse-Holder with a smile.
"Very well, the road ahead is long and arduous, but I will persevere in my search."
"Congratulations! Congratulations! Let us both inquire about the Great Dao." Styx returned the greeting to the figure before him. This corpse was extraordinary, unlike the previous benevolent corpse, and should not be underestimated.
"I shall call you Daoist Master," how about that? Styx looked at the corpse before him and gave his corpse a name with a double meaning.
"Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful, what a 'Daoist Master'!" The Daoist Master transformed into boundless chaos and returned to the Styx River's body.
"How is the Primordial World now?" Styx got up and slowly paced around the Zixiao Palace, while calculating with his fingers. However, he felt that the secrets of heaven were somewhat obscure. After calculating more carefully, he discovered that the calamity aura of the Primordial World had risen to an unimaginable level.
Because of the rising calamity, the secrets of heaven were not revealed and it was difficult to calculate. However, by forcibly calculating with his cultivation, Styx finally understood what had happened in the prehistoric world.
"Fellow Daoist Zhunti, your methods are indeed impressive, but I never imagined that you are skilled in strategizing but clumsy in self-preservation," Styx sighed as he comprehended the Great Dao within the Chaos Pearl.
"The Zhou Tian Star Array has been created, and the great calamity is probably about to begin. It's time to return to the Blood Sea," Styx pondered.
When the great calamity begins, the blood and souls of countless beings will gather in the Netherworld Blood Sea. At that time, it will not be good if no one is in charge of the overall situation in the Blood Sea.
At the same time, Styx also felt a sense of urgency. At the latest, during the Investiture of the Gods, Hongjun would completely eliminate the threat of the creation merits on the Three Pure Ones. At that time, who would be the most threatening to Hongjun in the entire prehistoric world?
You're loyal to the Dao Ancestor, aren't you? Well, here's a Saint-Destroying Pill for you to take and prove your loyalty. Will you prove it or not?
No matter how much he relied on "human relationships" to gain Hongjun's trust, Minghe always firmly believed in his heart that only by possessing cultivation that no one could touch could he ensure his own safety; no one else had it as well as him.
Hongjun's momentary goodwill is insignificant compared to the overall situation of the prehistoric world.
Just then, Haotian and Yaochi returned to Zixiao Palace. Upon seeing this, Minghe smiled slightly.
"Fellow Daoist Haotian, Fellow Daoist Yaochi, have you witnessed the scenery along the way in the prehistoric world?" Styx greeted Haotian and Yaochi with a smile, but he noticed that Haotian and Yaochi looked unpleasant, which puzzled him.
These two are Dao Ancestor's attendants, how dare anyone mistreat them?
Upon hearing this, Haotian and Yaochi's expressions became even more unpleasant.
There are actually people who dare to make them angry.
As for the two attendants of the Dao Ancestor, because they had sided with the Styx River between the Three Pure Ones and the Styx River, Yuanshi always looked down on Haotian and others, and even felt disgusted by them.
As luck would have it, Haotian and Yaochi had just begun their journey through the primordial starry sky and were having a great time. They were preparing to visit the primordial land when they were run into several Heavenly Emperors of the Heavenly Court who were currently subduing many stars in the primordial world for the Zhou Tian Xing Dou Grand Array.
Yuanshi already disliked the two attendants, and he expressed great dissatisfaction with Haotian and Yaochi for leaving Zixiao Palace without permission. In particular, the lotus platform formed by the twelve-petaled karmic fire lotus seeds under their feet made several Heavenly Emperors of the Heavenly Court change their expressions. For Yuanshi and Taiyi, who had been severely injured by the Styx River and whose original forms had been exposed, this move was tantamount to a direct attack.
Yuanshi immediately reprimanded Haotian and Yaochi in public for abandoning their posts, severely humiliating them, before sending them back to Zixiao Palace.
This would seem absurd to others, but it makes perfect sense to Yuanshi. The reason is simple: Yuanshi only respects etiquette and law and doesn't care about human feelings. Moreover, the Zhou Tian Star Array is about to be completed. In Yuanshi's mind, who is unaware of the Twelve Capital Heavenly Gods and Demons Array, the Heavenly Court is not far from sweeping across the prehistoric world.
At that time, with the combined merit of pacifying the prehistoric world and the fortune of the entire prehistoric world, they may well become saints. At this moment, they are disciples of the Dao Ancestor, and he himself is the Heavenly Emperor of the Heavenly Court, the future supreme ruler of the prehistoric world. Not to mention Haotian and Yaochi, who are even lower than Zhunti and Jieyin according to etiquette, even if Zhunti and Jieyin fall into his hands, he will have all sorts of methods to deal with them.
What? You say you're the Dao Ancestor's attendant?
Excuse me, but we Three Pure Ones are not only disciples of the Dao Ancestor, but we also possess the merits of the creation of the world!
Seeing Yuanshi's overwhelming power, Haotian and Yaochi had no choice but to return to Zixiao Palace. However, just as they were enjoying their travels, they were reprimanded in this way.
It would be strange if the two, who were so disdainful and disappointed, didn't look grim.
"Only now do I realize the extraordinary power of Fellow Daoist Styx, who resides peacefully in the primordial world," Haotian said, looking at Styx, who was still adhering to the agreement and gazing at Zixiao Palace.
"Could it be that someone dares to make things difficult for you two? Please speak freely, and I will avenge you!" Styx looked at Haotian and Yaochi in front of him and said with a smile. Even if Haotian and Yaochi didn't say, he knew who it was. After all, in the entire prehistoric world, there were very few who were qualified to make trouble for the Dao Ancestor's disciple, and even fewer who dared to do so.
