After leaving the Blood Sea, River Styx rode a cloud and strolled around leisurely. He had been in the Great Desolation for a long time, but he had never seen the great rivers and mountains of the Great Desolation. At most, he had seen a corner of the Great Desolation when the Blood God's Son came out of the Blood Sea to collect experimental materials.
After leaving the Blood Sea for a few days, the scenery River Styx saw became better and better. After all, he was getting further and further away from the Blood Sea. In his previous life, he often heard that Guilin's mountains and rivers were the best in the world, but compared to the Great Desolation, it was like a Magus meeting a Grand Wizard.
The continuous mountain range, the peaks towering into the clouds, the strange mountains and rocks, the clear water and white sand, everywhere was like a paradise of immortals. This was only a corner of the Great Desolation. River Styx really could not imagine what a real paradise of immortals would look like. Not to mention Mount Buzhou, which was formed by Pangu's spine.
After leaving the Blood Sea, River Styx saw more and more creatures of the Great Desolation. They were all strange and of different races, but they all lived in their original forms and fought with their bare hands.
It was no wonder. In the Great Desolation, those who could inherit the Tendo's techniques were basically innate demon gods like River Styx. The other postnatal creatures could only rely on their instincts to absorb spiritual energy to cultivate, and did not have any systematic techniques.
Along the way, huge strange beasts could be seen everywhere, which was naturally accompanied by fights. Spiritual roots, spiritual fruits, spiritual herbs, and places rich in spiritual energy were all reasons for fighting. The strong preyed on the weak, and the survival of the fittest. This was the most primitive law of survival.
Training the heart in the mortal world, seeing all kinds of things in the world, experiencing life, old age, sickness, death, happiness, anger, sorrow, and joy. Many of these were things that Minghe had not experienced in his previous life. While traveling, Minghe was also used to killing and death. He understood the fragility of life, and also planted the seed of the heart of the strong in his heart.
Along the way, River Styx had witnessed all kinds of conflicts between the Hundred Tribes during the Great Desolation. Death could be seen almost everywhere. Why? It was a sin to be weak. River Styx was now a member of the Great Desolation. Thinking about the dangers of each future Cultivation Tribulation, River Styx knew that there were only two paths before him.
The first path was to stand aloof from worldly affairs and rely on his identity as the master of the Blood Sea and the future master of the Asura Dao in the Six Dao of Reincarnation to hide in a corner. He could be a carefree immortal who lived as long as the heavens and earth, but would that be true carefree? River Styx did not know.
The other path was to rely on one's own foresight to defy the heavens and seek the path of the Tongtian. However, this path was extremely dangerous, especially when one might have to face those sages in the future. It was completely a path of no return. Once one stepped on it, there was no turning back.
After all, River Styx still had the thoughts of the future. With the two paths in front of him, he did not know how to choose. According to the character of an otaku in the past, the first path was definitely the best choice, which was to be a carefree immortal.
However, he was used to hearing those myths in his previous life, especially when he was young, he was especially fascinated by "Journey to the West" and Sun Wukong. But now, those myths were very likely to become real events that happened around him. He had an indescribable and inexplicable feeling in his heart.
For a moment, River Styx did not have the mood to tour the great rivers and mountains. He rode the cloud and went wherever he wanted. After an unknown period of time and an unknown place, a loud noise woke up River Styx from his thoughts. River Styx descended from the cloud and landed on a tree tip to look at the source of the noise.
It turned out that it was a fight between two tribes. River Styx figured out the reason after a brief calculation. The two tribes were fighting over territory. The weaker tribe occupied the smaller territory, and the stronger tribe was obviously unwilling to do so. Naturally, a fight was inevitable.
Such things happened everywhere in the Great Desolation, but River Styx did not really care about it before. Standing on the tree tip, River Styx watched for a few days until the fight came to an end. River Styx then rode the cloud back to the sky with a serious expression on his face.
The world bustled about for profit, and all fights were for profit. Being aloof from worldly affairs did not mean that one could really live in peace. Thinking about the invasions of China in the future, could there really be peace without fighting? Of course not. Only with great strength could one live a good life.
What were the most precious things in the Great Desolation? Luck, merit, Lingbao. River Styx had all of these. Even if he wanted to be aloof from worldly affairs, was it possible? As long as the Sage did not die, the bandits would not stop. Thinking about the appearance of the Sage in the future, River Styx would be targeted sooner or later.
Since he could not avoid it, he might as well not think too much about it. After all, he had already died once. Moreover, River Styx's starting point was not worse than others. Just these few Lingbao alone were something that others might not be able to obtain in their lifetime. Thinking of this, River Styx's heart was immediately at ease.
With a clear mind, River Styx's cultivation began to grow rapidly. It only stopped when he reached the late stage of Taiyi Golden Immortal. What made River Styx even happier was that his Primordial Spirit had actually broken through to the peak stage of Taiyi Golden Immortal. This was a pleasant surprise. As long as he had a little more enlightenment, he could expect to become Daluo Jinxian.
After the knot in his heart was untied, River Styx's spirits were immediately lifted. He went on a scenic tour and collected Spiritual Roots, Spiritual Herbs, Lingbao, and so on. Anyway, as long as it was something that he fancied, he would do anything to get it. For this purpose, he had specially refined a high-grade Houtian Lingbao Hundred Spirits Diagram to store Spiritual Roots and Spiritual Herbs.
This time, River Styx's destination was Mount Buzhou. Firstly, he wanted to pay homage to the majesty of the Great Pangu. Secondly, he wanted to search for treasures. In the novels that he had read in his previous life, the protagonists would always gain something from Mount Buzhou. Naturally, River Styx would not miss this opportunity.
Moreover, River Styx had also gained a lot along the way. He had collected a lot of Spiritual Roots and Spiritual Herbs. Although many of them were very ordinary, they would be good to bring back and plant on his Sacred Island. However, there were also some good things that could catch River Styx's eye.
Among the Spiritual Roots that River Styx had collected, there were only two that were good enough. The first was the Heaven and Earth Tea Tree. This tree was a middle-grade Primordial Spiritual Root. The tea leaves on this tree had a special effect of calming the mind. It was effective for anyone below Quasi-saint.
The second was also a Primordial Spiritual Root. Moreover, it was a high-grade Primordial Spiritual Root. It was a Path-Understanding Fruit Tree. It bloomed once every thousand years, bore fruit once every thousand years, and ripened once every thousand years. Each time, it would only bear nine Path-Understanding Fruits. Anyone below Quasi-saint would have the opportunity to enter a rare state of epiphany. Unfortunately, each person could only consume three Path-Understanding Fruits in their lifetime.
(The Great Desolation Magic Treasures were divided into Chaos Lingbao, Primordial Treasure, Primordial Lingbao, Acquired Primordial Treasure, and Acquired Lingbao. Each level was further divided into Supreme-Grade, High-grade, Middle-grade, and Low-grade. Spiritual Roots were only divided into Primordial and Acquired, but they were also further divided into Supreme-Grade, High-grade, Middle-grade, and Low-grade.)
In addition to these two Primordial Spiritual Roots, River Styx also found three Primordial Lingbao. However, two of them gave him a strange feeling. These two Primordial Lingbao were Supreme-Grade, and they were a set. They would be famous in the future, but they did not seem to belong to him.
The Book of Life and Death, a Supreme-Grade Primordial Lingbao. It was the Book of Man, one of the Three Books of Heaven, Earth, and Man. It recorded the birth, time of death, lifespan, and other information of all living things in this world. Even Daluo Jinxian's name was on the list. Only Quasi-saint could jump out of it.
The Judge's Pen, a Supreme-Grade Primordial Lingbao. Its attack power was average. The tip of the pen was sharp, and its attack carried the Qi of Death. However, it had a special ability, which was to modify the Book of Life and Death. This ability alone was enough to tempt the Immortals of the Great Desolation. Perhaps even the Sages were no exception.
But now that the Six Paths of Reincarnation had not appeared, the Book of Life and Death and the Judge's Pen were basically useless. At most, one could only borrow the Qi of Death to attack. However, once one came into contact with the Qi of Death, it would not be a small matter. It would not be easy to get rid of the Qi of Death.
River Styx had a lot of Lingbao, and they were both offensive and defensive. Although these two Lingbao were useless now, it was not a bad thing to use them to comprehend the Path of Reincarnation. Moreover, it would be a good tool to obtain merits in the future.
The third Primordial Lingbao was called Zhen Yue. It was a Supreme-Grade Lingbao. It looked a little like a mountain model, but it could mobilize the power of three mountains and five mountains. In simple terms, it was similar to a brick. However, this brick was a little heavy, and it would not be a small matter if it was hit.
Of course, other than searching for treasures, River Styx was not idle along the way. He had been deducing all kinds of techniques and Divine Abilities. Although they were not high-level techniques, and could only be cultivated to the True Immortal Realm at most, the amount of Divine Abilities he deduced was huge!
Now, the hundred races of the Great Desolation did not know the Path of Cultivation. At most, some of the leaders of the hundred races might have the Tendo Inheritance. However, they would not necessarily publicize it. At most, they would pass it on to a few people close to them. However, most living beings could only rely on their instincts to cultivate.
This was a good opportunity to obtain merits. The first time Kai Tian preached the Dao, even if he only talked about some superficial Dao techniques, he could obtain a lot of merits. In order to obtain more merits, River Styx even refined 3,600 Enlightenment Tablets.
These Enlightenment Tablets recorded some simple techniques, Divine Abilities, Array Formations, and so on that River Styx had deduced. Although they were not very profound, they were a huge fortune for the ordinary living beings of the Great Desolation who had not stepped onto the Path of Immortality.
However, River Styx did not expect that although his intentions were good, to lead the living beings of the Great Desolation onto the Path of Cultivation, these 3,600 Enlightenment Tablets would also accelerate the war between the hundred races of the Great Desolation. It was hard to say whether this was good or bad.
A hundred years later, all 3,600 Enlightenment Tablets were refined. There were thousands of different techniques recorded on them, as well as countless minor Divine Abilities and simple Array Formations. River Styx was very gratified when he saw the fruits of his laborious labor. It was as if he had returned to the time when he was an otaku and forgot to eat or sleep for a single matter.
At this time, River Styx had arrived at his destination. He felt his insignificance for the first time when he looked at Mount Buzhou in front of him. River Styx's blood boiled at the sight of the majestic mountain. Although millions of years had passed, Mount Buzhou still exuded Pangu's powerful presence.
It was precisely because of this that no living beings lived near Mount Buzhou. Under such pressure, ordinary living beings couldn't even cultivate. Perhaps only connate demon gods could cultivate in a place like this. As a result, Mount Buzhou became a paradise without conflict.
