A thousand years later, in the boundless sea of blood, River Styx sat cross-legged on the Red Lotus of Hellfire. Endless blood and spiritual energy gushed into his body as if they were drawn into a whirlpool. Every inch of River Styx's flesh and bones were being tempered crazily. His body grew stronger day by day.
This situation had persisted for an entire thousand years. Previously, he had been engrossed in the cultivation of laws, causing his physical body cultivation to slacken. Now, he had reached a bottleneck in his cultivation of laws. This gave River Styx the time to properly cultivate his physical body, allowing the two to reach a balance.
River Styx's self-created "Celestial Demon Mystic Technique" imitated the Chaos Demon God's Law to refine one's body. However, due to the difference in body laws, the effects were naturally different as well. The Law of Slaughter was more destructive, so River Styx used it to refine his body. The Law of Soul was extremely mysterious, so by using it to refine his body, River Styx was able to rebirth from a single drop of blood.
The laws of the universe emphasized strength. By using the power of the universe to temper one's body, not only would it strengthen one's physical body, it would also increase one's physical strength. During the tempering process, the power of the universe would gradually merge with the body, causing every movement of the body to be imbued with the power of the universe.
As for the Law of Blood, in River Styx's eyes, it was more appropriate to call it the Law of Flesh. Using the Law of Blood to refine the boundless Blood Qi in the Blood Sea and transform it into the purest Blood Origin to supply the body. While strengthening the body, it would also allow the bloodline to evolve continuously. Through the continuous quantitative change, it would trigger the final qualitative change. River Styx was looking forward to it.
Currently, River Styx's blood energy was of the purest and purest Yang. Unlike the purest and purest Yang energy of the sun, his blood energy was not as strong as River Styx's blood energy. However, with the purest and purest Yang energy condensed into the Blood Energy Red Lotus, no ordinary spell could break through his defense, unless the spell was stronger than River Styx's blood energy.
"Hu!" River Styx gently exhaled a mouthful of foul Qi, and the Qi and blood vortex disappeared. After a thousand years of refining his body, he could be considered to have achieved success. He put away the Red Lotus of Fire and returned to the Sacred Island. Seeing Liu Er and Chixuan cultivating, he nodded to himself.
Both of them were extremely talented and diligent in their cultivation. River Styx had tempered his body for a thousand years. During this period, River Styx did not have the time to take care of them. However, both of them were extremely hardworking. Now, both of them had reached the peak of Taiyi Golden Immortal Realm, and the Daluo Dao Fruit was just around the corner.
Initially, he wanted to call the two over to test their cultivation bases. But suddenly, heavenly music drifted in the air, flowers bloomed, and beasts roared. An auspicious aura spread across the entire Great Desolation. Suddenly, numerous Great Daos appeared on the vast land of the Great Desolation. For a moment, all the plants, ordinary beasts, rare treasures, and countless spiritual creatures on the land of the Great Desolation had their intelligence enlightened. Some of them were even able to take human form and transcend mortality.
This was … River Styx's pupils shrank. Had Hongjun become a Sage? Perhaps only the birth of a Sage and the Great Desolation would have such a scene. What should come would come. But when it really came, River Styx was calm. He was not afraid, but full of excitement and expectation.
When the auspicious aura appeared, an incomparably huge pressure pressed down on the entire Great Desolation. All living creatures felt a sense of submission and bowed down devoutly on the ground. "Lying high on the Ninth Layer of Clouds, I understand the truth of Dao on the futon. Outside the Heaven and Earth, I am the Hierarch. Pangu gave birth to Tai Chi, Yin and Yang and Four Symbols. I am Hongjun. Today, I have become a Sage. I will preach the Great Dao in the Purple Cloud Palace outside the 33 Heavens. Those who are destined can come and listen. "The huge and majestic voice resounded throughout the entire Great Desolation.
River Styx waved his sleeves. The protective formation on the Sacred Island was immediately activated, isolating the Sage's aura outside. Liu Er and Chixuan, who were cultivating, were also awakened by such a commotion. They thought River Styx was powerful enough, but they did not expect him to be able to do such a thing just by his aura.
Liu Er and Chixuan walked to the side of River Styx. Liu Er asked doubtfully, "Master, who is this person? How can he have such an aura?" River Styx said with a dignified expression, "This person is the first Sage in the Great Desolation. You should know that everyone below the Sage is a nonentity. You two stay on the island. I'm going to the Purple Cloud Palace to listen to Dao."
After taking a few steps, River Styx suddenly turned back and said, "Liu Er, don't eavesdrop on the Sage's Dao preaching. Otherwise, the Karma between you and the Sage will not be a joke." Liu Er touched his head awkwardly. If River Styx had not said it, he would have done so.
After leaving the Sacred Island, River Styx went straight to Mount Buzhou. As for why he did not take Liu Er and Chixuan with him, it was because they had not even reached the realm of Zenith Heaven. It would be useless for them to go there. Anyway, they could listen to River Styx's Dao preaching in the future. It made no difference whether they went now or not.
… ….
In the Kunlun Mountains, the Taiqing Laozi, the Yuqing Primordial Lord, and the Shangqing Tongtian Lord were looking at the Thirty-Three Heavens. Although the momentum of Hongjun becoming a Saint was blocked by the three of them, they had also witnessed the strength of a Saint. The Heavenly Lord of the Origin's face was extremely ugly as he asked, "Brother, are we going to the Purple Cloud Palace to listen to the Dao?"
Sanqing was originally the incarnation of Pangu's Primordial Spirit. He had the right to be proud, especially Yuanshi, who regarded himself as the orthodox Pangu. Except for Lao Tzu, he did not put anyone in his eyes. However, he did not expect that someone had achieved Dao before them. How could he not be envious?
Lao Tzu said calmly, "The one who has achieved is the teacher. Let's go and see the Dao of the Sage." Since Lao Tzu made the decision, Yuanshi naturally did not say anything. The Tongtian also had no objection. The three of them left Mount Kunlun and flew directly to Mount Buzhou.
… ….
In the Pangu Palace, the Twelve Zu Wu gathered together. They did not pay much attention to Hong Jun becoming a Sage. The Twelve Zu Wu did not respect Heaven or Earth. They only respected Pangu. Moreover, they did not have Primordial Spirits. The Sage's Dao was not attractive to them at all.
… ….
Zu Wu was not interested, but there were many who were. Zhunti Summon of the West, Nüwa, Fuxi of Mount Buzhou, Di Jun, Donghuang Taichi, Zhen Yuanzi, Hongyun of Kunpeng, and so on. Countless powerful hermits came out and headed to Mount Buzhou one after another, fearing that they would miss the time to listen to the Dao.
The top of Mount Buzhou was the 33rd Heaven of the Great Desolation. At this time, the Celestial Court had not yet appeared. There were only countless Zhouxing and strong winds. If one was not careful, one could end up dead. Further up was the boundary between the Great Desolation and the Chaos, the World Membrane. Passing through the World Membrane, one could enter the Chaos.
However, the Chaos was limitless. Not to mention all kinds of unexpected situations, the Chaos Qi was not something that ordinary people could withstand. If one was protected by the Lingbao and a high level of cultivation, it would be difficult to enter the Chaos and find the Purple Cloud Palace. This was the first obstacle to listen to the Dao. It was enough to block the path of those who wanted to listen to the Dao.
Not long after, a large number of practitioners gathered in front of the World Membrane. The weakest among them was a Taiyi Golden Immortal. Most of them were Daluo Jinxian, but there were also some Quasi-saint experts hiding among them, but they were very few.
When River Styx arrived in front of the World Membrane, there were already many practitioners gathered here. River Styx observed for a while and found that there were Quasi-saint experts among them. It seemed that there were many people who practiced the Way of Law. These people must have a strong background.
River Styx was not in a hurry to enter the Chaos. Instead, he observed. There were dangers everywhere in the Chaos. Even a small Chaos Whirlpool could take one's life. Even a Quasi-saint would have to be extra careful if they wanted to walk in the Chaos.
Everyone stopped and watched, but there were some who were impatient. They urged the Lingbao and wanted to enter the Chaos. However, as soon as they entered, the Chaos Qi blew them away. Such a situation made everyone hesitate. After all, no one wanted to die.
Just as everyone was hesitating, three figures suddenly passed through the World Membrane and entered the Chaos. One of them had a Black and Yellow Pagoda above his head. Countless golden lights shone down, protecting the three of them. The Chaos Qi could not enter their bodies at all. They advanced towards the Chaos without any hindrance.
River Styx naturally recognized the three of them, especially the Black and Yellow Pagoda. It contained the Merit of Creation. River Styx also had half of the Merit of Creation, so he was familiar with it. It must be the Black and Yellow Pagoda of Creation. It was formed when the sky was opened, 30% of the Merit of Creation combined with the Black and Yellow Qi. It was a rare defensive treasure in the Great Desolation. Once it was used, it would be invincible.
