After an unknown period of time, the Chaos returned to its usual calmness. River Styx retracted his terrifying aura. Opening his eyes, River Styx could feel the surging power within himself and the three corpses. He could not help but reveal a gratified smile. After spending so much effort and effort, the harvest did not disappoint him.
This was especially so for Qiankun Taoist. He had devoured the World of Five Elements in one fell swoop, and the Qiankun World had once again begun its rapid growth. This time, due to the fusion of the World of Five Elements, the Qiankun World did not show any signs of instability due to its rapid growth. This was also what River Styx wanted. If the Qiankun World had any hidden dangers, it would be better to temporarily not allow it to continue growing.
The foundation of a world was the key to its growth. Now that the Qiankun World had devoured the World of Five Elements in one fell swoop, its growth was naturally astonishing. However, under Qiankun Taoist's intentional restriction, its growth was slowed down by a lot. As a world grew, everything needed to be perfected. It would probably take a very long time to completely digest the harvest this time.
This was also what River Styx wanted. During this period of time, River Styx's strength had been growing too rapidly. It was time for him to slow down a little and concentrate on cultivating for a period of time. Moreover, with his strength at River Styx's level, it was difficult for him to reach the heavens in a single bound. It was better for him to focus on studying the refinement of the Chaos Lingbao. Although the Lingbao was an external object, it could still greatly increase his strength.
Thinking of the Chaos Lingbao, River Styx could not help but think of Hongjun, who was also in the Chaos. In terms of refining the Chaos Lingbao, Hongjun was clearly much more advanced than River Styx. Now that they were both in the Chaos, River Styx did not know how Hongjun's strength would increase. Would his Purple Cloud Palace be promoted to the Chaos Lingbao? All of this was still unknown.
Since he could not predict Hongjun's growth, River Styx could only strengthen himself. Although he and Hongjun might not necessarily be enemies, and there was even a possibility of cooperation, cooperation had to be based on the condition that they were of equal strength. Otherwise, he would only be at a disadvantage and be controlled by others. This was not what River Styx wanted, so he could only choose to continuously strengthen himself.
Since he wanted to go into seclusion, he naturally had to choose a suitable place. Minghe had already come to a conclusion that this place was definitely an excellent place for seclusion. Moreover, it was also very suitable for comprehending the laws. It was also an excellent place to increase one's control over the laws. Although it was a little dangerous, it was still a good place for seclusion.
… ….
In this world, a huge palace stood above the Ninth Heaven. A plaque hung on the gate of the palace, with the words' Purple Cloud Palace 'written on it. Inside the main hall, Hongjun sat on a futon. The aura around him was looming and mysterious. However, this strange aura was full of dangerous aura, which made people feel intimidated at first glance.
… ….
In the chaos, a Taoist in a gray robe held a cyan sword. With a slash of his sword, thousands of Sword Qi were produced. Wherever the Sword Qi passed, the chaos was stirred up, and the Fierce Beasts of Chaos in front of him were all killed by the Sword Qi. After the Taoist put away the corpses of the Fierce Beasts of Chaos and the Origin of Chaos, his sharp aura dissipated. He became an ordinary Taoist again and continued to move forward in the chaos.
… ….
In the Great Desolation, the departure of River Styx, Hongjun, and the Tongtian Hierarch one after another did not have much impact on the Great Desolation. Now, neither the Sages nor the Origin experts could fight in the Great Desolation. In the Great Desolation, it had become the world of Quasi-saint. Various forces had risen. Although the Great Desolation had not recovered to the point where there were hundreds of races, it was still divided.
Although the Great Desolation had become a little turbulent, the Sages turned a blind eye to it, as if they had given up the fight for the fate of the Great Desolation. They had been in closed-door training and had not appeared in front of the sentient beings of the Great Desolation for a long time. But it was like the calm before the storm. One moment it was sunny, and the next moment it was stormy.
On that day, the world suddenly changed, and all sentient beings of the Great Desolation were shocked. They thought that something big had happened, but they did not expect that it was really a shocking change. At the same time, all the Sages appeared in the Great Desolation. As if they had discussed it beforehand, they all abandoned their status as Sages. Between heaven and earth, sad songs sounded everywhere, as if they were lamenting the disappearance of the Sages.
But there were pros and cons to everything. The Sages who had lost their positions as Saints had become Origin experts like the Tongtian Hierarch. Their cultivation was naturally damaged, and they did not have a rare treasure like the Source of Chaos. They could only cultivate in closed-door training and disappear in front of the sentient beings of the Great Desolation again. When their cultivation was fully recovered, they would quietly go to the Chaos to search for their own opportunities.
Although Lao Tzu and the others did not know what was in the Chaos, there must be something in the Chaos that attracted River Styx and Hongjun to go there. The Tongtian had also gone there before them, which showed that the Tongtian must have received some information from River Styx. Therefore, they had to go there. Since they were already behind others, they could not fall behind. They had to catch up.
The departure of Lao Tzu and the others did not have much impact on the Great Desolation. Everything in the Great Desolation went on as usual. All the forces were constantly accumulating strength. Although there were no major conflicts for the time being, they could only protect themselves if they had enough strength. Otherwise, once the Great Desolation descended into chaos, they would only be at the mercy of others. This was something that no one wanted to see.
In the era where the Sages and Origin did not appear, the Great Desolation could be said to be a rise of heroes. First of all, the Celestial Court was presided over by two Quasi-saint masters, Haotian and Yaoji. With the List of Deification in hand and the righteous existence of supervising the Great Desolation, it naturally developed very smoothly. Its strength grew day by day. Most of the Individual Practitioners in the Great Desolation joined the Celestial Court to seek a place to settle down.
At that time, although the Celestial Court was controlled by Daozu and Hongjun, Hongjun had already integrated with the Tao and represented Tendo. Even though Hongjun had left, Haotian and Yaochi still had a righteous reputation. Now, the Celestial Court was powerful and Haotian had the betrothal gift from Liu Er when he married Yaoji. It was not difficult to strengthen the Celestial Court.
However, although the Celestial Court was powerful, there were several overlords that were not under the jurisdiction of the Celestial Court. One of them was the Human Tribe. To be exact, it was the Holy Land of the Human Tribe. Although the Holy Land of the Human Tribe was reclusive, it was one of the most powerful forces in the Great Desolation. It was already very powerful in the past, and now it had been reclusive for so long that no one dared to provoke it.
The second one was the Blood Sea. Lao Tzu and others had left, but Liu Er had not. Although he could not fight, the existence of a Chaotic Demon God was a great deterrent. Moreover, even without Liu Er, the strength of the Blood Sea was enough to deter all forces in the Great Desolation and make them not dare to cross the line.
The third one was the Wu people. Although Houtu had traveled far away in the Chaos, there were still 11 Wu people in the Wu people. Each of them had the cultivation of a Quasi-saint. Of course, except for Xuan Ming Zu Wu, who was in his prime, the other Zu Wu were not very powerful because of their resurrection. Moreover, their resurrected bodies were not as good as before. No one knew how long it would take for them to fully recover.
The fourth one was the Demon Tribe. Under the deterrence of River Styx, the Demon Tribe was united again and Lu Ya succeeded in becoming the Demon Emperor. Although he could not completely deter Bai Ze and Kunpeng for the time being, he was more than enough to rule the Demon Tribe in the world. Moreover, Lu Ya was very smart. He knew to delegate power to draw Bai Ze and Kunpeng to his side. The Demon Tribe began to slowly recover its pneuma lost in the Great War of Witch-Demon.
The fifth one was the Earth Immortal's Mansion. Although only Zhen Yuanzi was there, it was enough. A Half-step Origin was enough to deter all. However, there was also a disadvantage. Once Zhen Yuanzi became the Origin, the Earth Immortal's Mansion would be in an awkward position. Now, the strongest in the Earth Immortal's Mansion was only the peak of Daluo Jinxian. At that time, without the deterrence of a Quasi-saint, the status of the Earth Immortal's Mansion would not be as good as before.
The rest were the four sects of the Great Desolation. The Ren Sect lived in seclusion on Mount Shouyang, and the Jie Sect lived in seclusion on the East Sea. Only the Chan Sect still had some activities in the Nine Regions of the Human Tribe. As for the Western Buddhism, after breaking away from the Xuanmen, it developed rapidly. However, for the time being, there was no sign of competition. Even if they wanted to compete, it would be useless if they only had the Pharmacist, a Quasi-saint.
Of course, there was another force that was in an awkward position. That was the Dragon Tribe. Although they had Yinglong, a Quasi-saint, they were weak. Although dragons were divine beasts, they were also demons. If the Demon Tribe could take the Dragon Tribe under their command, the strength of the Demon Tribe would certainly increase greatly. However, the Dragon Tribe was unwilling to do so. They could only rely on the Celestial Court for peace.
However, this kind of peace obviously did not last long. Zhen Yuanzi and Cangjie successively became Hunyuan. For a time, the Great Desolation was in an uproar. Later, during the Warring States Period of the Human Tribe, Kong Xuan established Confucianism in the Nine Regions of the Great Desolation. He established Confucianism with the Earth Star in the Spirit Space to comprehend the Confucian Way. He also killed the Corpse of the Five Elements and became Hunyuan with the Confucian Way and the Way of the Five Elements, which shocked all parties of the Great Desolation.
In the following days, the Great Desolation seemed to have entered a golden age. From time to time, there were people who became Quasi-saints. The old Quasi-saint masters also made great progress in their cultivation. Haotian, Fuxi, the Three Ancestors of the Human Tribe, the Black Tortoise, the Burning Lamp, Kunpeng, Xuan Ming and others all became Half-Step Hunyuan. In this way, the Great Desolation seemed to have entered a golden age.
Not only that, the people of the Great Desolation also found that although the Great Desolation had experienced the crisis of the shattering last time, which led to serious injuries, they were surprised to find that the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth in the Great Desolation had begun to recover. All these changes naturally came from the Tendo. Unconsciously, the Great Desolation Tendo had become stronger again.
