"What a Buddha Qing Ming. Styx is actually at a disadvantage?"
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva rode on the Truth Listener Spirit Beast and was watching the battle between Ye Xuan and the Nether River from the eighteenth level of hell. When he saw Patriarch Nether River being beaten back by Ye Xuan, a shocked voice came from his mouth.
…
On the Bridge of Helplessness!
Meng Po held an ancient mottled bowl in her hand as she scooped up Meng Po's soup to send the souls of the dead to reincarnate. Her pale and withered hair covered her face, but through her hair, she seemed to be staring at Ye Xuan, who was fighting with Patriarch Nether River.
"Why would such a person appear in the world?" Meng Po muttered to herself in a hoarse voice and shook her head slowly.
"He's beyond the Sage-to-be, but not a saint. He's between a saint and a Sage-to-be. Could his appearance be my calamity this time?" Meng Po muttered to herself in a hoarse voice and let out a long sigh. She continued to send the souls on the Bridge of Helplessness to reincarnate.
…
The Six Paths of Reincarnation.
A black, stalwart figure sat cross-legged in the void. The Six Paths of Reincarnation rotated behind him. His figure was so illusory that no one could see what he looked like.
"The great calamity of heaven and earth and the collapse of reincarnation. I was born with the Six Paths of Reincarnation and control the power of the Six Paths of Law, but I can't see through his true form. Could it be that when the Red Spider Lily blooms, my body and Dao will vanish?" The black figure sighed.
…
The Nether Blood Sea.
Ye Xuan's palm suppressed the world and slapped Styx Patriarch thirty thousand miles away. He had the upper hand and thousands of Buddhist lights appeared and swept toward Styx Patriarch.
"Kid, you've gone too far."
Styx Patriarch's eyes were bloodshot. The Yuan Tu and Avici Swords protected his body. Tongtian's blood light surged like a tide and blasted toward Ye Xuan violently. However, it couldn't cause any harm to Ye Xuan.
"Styx Patriarch, you're too weak. Hand over the Primordial Violet Vapor."
Ye Xuan's voice was calm. His Buddhist palms suppressed the Nether Blood Sea. The Buddhist might rumbled and rolled, causing Styx Patriarch to grit his teeth.
"Stinking brat, even though I'm not your match, you're dreaming if you think you can suppress me."
Although it was extremely embarrassing for the Nether River Patriarch to flee when he could not win, there was no other way. Moreover, it would not do him any good to keep tangling with Ye Xuan.
Boom!
Patriarch Nether River transformed into a beam of bloody light and fell into the Nether Blood Sea. Ye Xuan smiled. He transformed into a golden cloud and also entered the Nether Blood Sea. Clearly, he had no intention of letting Patriarch Nether River go.
Swoosh!
The Nether River Patriarch moved extremely quickly as if he had become one with the Nether Blood Sea, diving towards the bottom of the Blood Sea at an unimaginable speed.
On the other hand, Ye Xuan's body was shrouded in golden light as he followed behind the Nether River Patriarch. Six hours later, the two appeared at the bottom of the Nether Blood Sea.
"Speak, who are you?"
Suddenly, the Nether River Patriarch's figure appeared. There was no longer any anger on his face. Instead, he looked back at Ye Xuan with a puzzled expression.
"Nether River, it seems like you've guessed it." Ye Xuan smiled.
"It really is you?"
The Nether River Patriarch exclaimed in shock. His eyes froze slightly as he looked at Ye Xuan with a complicated expression.
Buzz!
The Buddhist light receded. Ye Xuan's appearance gradually changed. After three breaths, he returned to his original appearance. He then smiled at the Nether River Patriarch.
"Nether River, it's been many years since we last met. You're still as scheming as ever."
"It really is you. I knew you wouldn't die so easily!"
When Ye Xuan revealed his true appearance, the Nether River Patriarch laughed sinisterly as he strode towards Ye Xuan. He studied Ye Xuan from top to bottom as he clicked his tongue.
"I knew it. The Western Sect has never heard of any Buddha Qing Ming. Yet, that Daoist Cundi came to me to ask for the Primordial Violet Vapor. I knew you weren't dead yet." The Nether River Patriarch laughed sinisterly.
"Nether River, I was right about you. Your acting skills have deceived many people." Ye Xuan smiled and nodded. So from the beginning to the end, the battle between him and Patriarch Nether River had only been an act.
"How can my tricks compare to yours? You escaped from the hands of the Two Sages of the Western Sect and turned into the Buddha of Spirited Mountain. If I wasn't meticulous enough to notice that you didn't really fight with me, I wouldn't have thought that you were Ye Xuan." The Nether River Patriarch sighed.
"The Sages are spying on us. Naturally, we have to be careful. I told the Two Sages of the Western Sect that the Primordial Violet Vapor was in your hands to buy time for myself." Ye Xuan said in a deep voice.
"Ye Xuan, don't blame me for what happened back then. Even if I led the Asura Clan to stay and help you in the Celestial Court, the end result would still be the same." The Nether River Patriarch was slightly ashamed.
"There's no need to explain. I naturally understand the situation back then. I'm here today to take back the Primordial Violet Vapor and to cooperate with you on some matters." Ye Xuan said bluntly.
The Nether River Patriarch looked hesitant when he mentioned the Primordial Violet Vapor. However, when he saw Ye Xuan's calm eyes, his heart suddenly skipped a beat. He then forced a smile and said, "Ye Tiandi, you're really good. You lent me the Primordial Violet Vapor, but I couldn't comprehend its mystery. Instead, I was dragged into your trap."
"Nether River, after tens of thousands of years, you should have thought it through. If you could comprehend the Primordial Violet Vapor, you would have found the way to become a Saint. However, you're still a Sage-to-be. This also proves that you're not destined to become a Saint. Why don't you follow me and open up a path to become a Tongtian?" Ye Xuan said softly.
"Humph, you're too crafty. I'll return the Primordial Violet Vapor to you. I don't want to owe you any more karma. As for you wanting me to cooperate with you, don't even think about it if there are no benefits." The Nether River Patriarch flipped his palm and threw the Primordial Violet Vapor directly at Ye Xuan. It was also taken into Ye Xuan's Sumeru Space.
It was no wonder that the Nether River Patriarch had such an attitude. The Primordial Violet Vapor had been in his hands for tens of thousands of years. However, it was useless to him. He couldn't even comprehend the Primordial Violet Vapor's mystery, let alone become a Saint.
Moreover, he had helped Ye Xuan in the battle against the Ancient Demon Court. This had also caused him to offend two Saints. Moreover, his Nether Blood Sea lineage was labeled as Ye Xuan.
It could be said that Nether River didn't get any benefits. Instead, he got into trouble.
However, the Nether River Patriarch admired Ye Xuan very much. He believed that Ye Xuan could become a Saint. This was also the reason why the Nether River Patriarch didn't turn hostile even though he was used by Ye Xuan.
"When the Red Spider Lily blooms, the flowers and leaves grow together. Do you know this?" Ye Xuan said calmly.
"What?"
The Nether River Patriarch exclaimed in shock when he heard Ye Xuan's words. He suddenly looked at Ye Xuan as if he couldn't believe his ears.
The Nether River Patriarch paced anxiously and asked Ye Xuan with a serious expression, "Impossible … Absolutely impossible … How can there be a Red Spider Lily in this world? Are you sure this is true?"
Looking at the Nether River Patriarch's serious expression, Ye Xuan narrowed his eyes and said in a low voice, "It seems that you know a lot about the Red Spider Lily."
