Three thousand years later, at the foot of Mount Buzhou, River Styx once again looked up at Pangu's legacy. Although he still looked like he was in his twenties, there was a hint of vicissitudes in his eyes. For three thousand years, River Styx had traveled all over the Wu people, the Yao race, the Dragon race, the East, the West, and the Four Seas.
Although the journey of cultivating the heart did not achieve the desired results, at least River Styx's state of mind had caught up with his cultivation. In the past three thousand years, River Styx's cultivation did not increase by much. Only his understanding of the Law of Heaven and Earth had caught up with the other three Laws.
One could become a teacher by reviewing the old and learning the new. Minghe took advantage of this period of time to reorganize and comprehend what he had learned. If Minghe's mastery of what he had learned in the past was one point, then now it was one point one. Even this one point one point was enough to increase Minghe's strength a little.
At the Quasi-saint realm, it was basically impossible to increase one's cultivation quickly, unless one was lucky enough to sever corpses or use merit to increase one's cultivation. This was a shortcut, but River Styx was not very interested in it. It was better to go slow and steady than to advance by leaps and bounds. The most important thing was to have a stable foundation.
River Styx's mount, Chixuan, was a good example. When he was still a Black Jade Kirin, he cultivated to the Golden Immortal realm with a cultivation method. Later, he absorbed the Baleful Blood Qi and ate the Blood Jade Ganoderma to become a Blood Jade Kirin. He also broke through to the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm, but his foundation was extremely unstable.
Originally, River Styx had taught him the Tendo legacy cultivation method that he had obtained when he was just born. However, Chixuan started to cultivate from the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm, causing his foundation to be unstable. River Styx only discovered this after he finished his travels and scolded Chixuan.
Based on Chi Xuan's current state, he would probably never be able to break through to Daluo Jinxian. River Styx forcefully dispersed all of Chi Xuan's cultivation and used pills to repair the damage to Chi Xuan's foundation. Then, he allowed Chi Xuan to start cultivating again.
After all, Chi Xuan was River Styx's mount. If his cultivation base was low, it would be embarrassing for him. River Styx happened to want to experience Pangu's power in Mount Buzhou and comprehend the Daoist Rhymes in it. At the same time, he could also teach Chi Xuan about Daoism. If Chi Xuan did not understand the cultivation method, River Styx would be able to answer it.
On this day, River Styx was teaching Chi Xuan about Daoism. Suddenly, he felt as if someone was spying on him. When he used his divine sense, he found that there were no living creatures nearby. This was strange. With his mid-stage Quasi-saint cultivation, no one should be able to get close to him without being discovered, unless it was a Saint.
River Styx also discovered a pattern. Every time he had this feeling, it was when he was teaching Chi Xuan about Daoism. Now, in the Great Desolation, the one with the highest cultivation base was probably Hongjun. However, Hongjun had not become a Saint yet, and he probably had no interest in eavesdropping on his lecture.
Who was it? River Styx pinched his fingers and calculated for a long time. Suddenly, he stopped and a smile appeared on his face. No wonder his divine sense could not find the person who was eavesdropping on him. It turned out that this person was millions of miles away and was using a supernatural power to eavesdrop on River Styx's lecture.
River Styx suddenly scolded lightly, "You wild monkey, how dare you eavesdrop on my lecture? How dare you! Get over here now!" After he scolded him, the feeling of being spied on disappeared. River Styx smiled and continued to teach Chi Xuan.
Several years later, a monkey carrying a huge stone jar walked to River Styx with difficulty. This monkey was really strange. Its cultivation base was only at the level of a True Immortal, but it could withstand the pressure of Mount Buzhou and walk to River Styx. The most impressive thing was that this monkey had six ears.
In the universe, there were five immortals, namely Heaven, Earth, God, Human, and Ghost. There were also five insects, namely Ao, Lin, Mao, Yu, and Kun. This monkey was not Heaven, Earth, God, Human, or Ghost. It was also not Ao, Lin, Mao, Yu, or Kun. There were also four monkeys. It was not one of the ten species.
Looking at the monkey in front of him, River Styx smiled. The Six-Eared Macaque was good at listening. It was able to see through everything and was born in the Wind position of Earth, Water, Fire, and Wind. In the legends, it had only appeared in the plot of the real and fake Monkey King in Journey to the West. It died under Sun Wukong's staff.
River Styx did not expect the Six-Eared Macaque to be born so early. However, it was possible. If the Six-Eared Macaque was born at the same time as Sun Wukong, it would be impossible for it to be on par with Sun Wukong.
If the Six-Eared Macaque was born at the same time as Sun Wukong and used its Mystique to eavesdrop on Grandmaster Bodhi's teachings to Sun Wukong, even if it learned the Somersault Cloud and the Disha 72 Transformations, its cultivation level would not be on par with Sun Wukong. Sun Wukong had secretly eaten many immortal peaches and elixirs in the Heavenly Palace. He also cultivated the Golden Gaze Fiery Eyes and the Invincible Vajra Body in the Furnace of Eight Trigrams. How could the Six-Eared Macaque be on par with Sun Wukong?
However, the Six-Eared Macaque was born too early. If there were no accidents, it would be at least a Daluo Jinxian by the time of the Journey to the West. Even if Sun Wukong was the Tribulation Taker, how could he fight against the Six-Eared Macaque? This was a mystery.
River Styx did not want to think too much about it. Since he had met the Six-Eared Macaque, he would not let go of such a good piece of jade. As long as he worked hard, the Six-Eared Macaque's future would be limitless. Then his fate would be changed. But the monkey was smart. It came and brought a gift for River Styx.
River Styx did not really scold the Six-Eared Macaque. He just wanted to give him a chance. If the Six-Eared Macaque did not come because he was afraid, then he would miss out on the opportunity that River Styx had given him. If the Tendo forced him to come, then the Journey to the West would be the time when the Six-Eared Macaque died.
The thing in the Six-Eared Macaque's stone jar was also very famous. It was monkey wine. It was the food that the monkeys had stored for the winter. It was made by fermenting hundreds of fruits. It was something that could only be found by chance. In the Great Desolation, the concept of wine did not exist. River Styx could taste it.
It was mellow and rich. It was the best wine in the world. After taking a sip, River Styx laughed and said, "You are a smart monkey. Since you are here, let me ask you. Are you willing to be my disciple?" The Six-Eared Macaque was overjoyed. He kowtowed excitedly and said, "Your disciple greets you, Master."
River Styx nodded and said, "My disciple, let me ask you. Do you have a name?" The Six-Eared Macaque said respectfully, "Master, your disciple was born with six ears, so I named myself Liu Er." Liu Er was a very practical name.
River Styx said, "That's good. Liu Er, I am the master of the Nether Blood Sea, Ancestor River Styx. From now on, you are my first disciple. This Ninth-Grade Red Lotus of Hellfire is my gift to you. When we return to the Blood Sea, I will teach you cultivation methods."
River Styx did not intend to accept too many disciples. This Red Lotus of Hellfire could be the symbol of his disciple. As Liu Er was River Styx's first disciple, the remaining Ninth-Grade Red Lotus of Hellfire was naturally given to him last time. As for weapons, River Styx would carefully refine one for him when they returned to the Blood Sea.
After Liu Er dripped his blood to make the Ninth-Grade Red Lotus of Hellfire recognize him as its master, he was both happy and grateful for River Styx's kindness. Although his cultivation was not high, he had heard about the preciousness of the Primordial Lingbao from others. Furthermore, River Styx's gift to him was an Upper Grade Primordial Lingbao with both offensive and defensive capabilities. It was even more precious. How could Liu Er not be excited?
Having accepted Liu Er as his first disciple, River Styx's trip could be considered a success. After putting Liu Er and Chi Xuan into the Map of the Universe, River Styx rode a cloud and flew towards the Blood Sea. In the time it took to burn an incense stick, River Styx had returned to the Sacred Island of the Blood Sea.
To be honest, River Styx did miss the Blood Sea and the Sacred Island of the Blood Sea since he had not returned for 3,000 years. After all, this was his home. No matter what the Blood Sea meant to other creatures of the Great Desolation, River Styx's familiarity with the Blood Sea was irreplaceable.
After returning to the Blood Sea, River Styx began to teach Liu Er the cultivation method. Ordinary cultivation methods could not fully develop Liu Er's potential. Therefore, River Styx taught Liu Er the Cultivation Method of Celestial Demons that he had cultivated.
The Cultivation Method of Celestial Demons was divided into Nine Turns. Nine Turns of Cultivation Method of Celestial Demons could make a Daluo Jinxian of the Origin. However, this was only River Styx's deduction. Eight Turns of Cultivation Method of Celestial Demons could definitely make a breakthrough to the Quasi-saint Realm. River Styx was now in the Eight Turns Realm. As for the Ninth Turn, it was still in the deduction of River Styx.
Liu Er was originally one of the Four Spiritual Monkeys with a strong body. Otherwise, he would not have been able to withstand the pressure of the periphery of Mount Buzhou with only the cultivation of Genuine Immortality. River Styx's Cultivation Method of Celestial Demons was definitely the best way to cultivate the body. If he had enough Fated Chance, he might be able to return to his origin and reconstruct the body of the Chaotic Demon God.
