Chapter 16: Styx Creates a New Race, the Great Way Authentication!
The Nether Blood Sea, with its tumultuous waves of blood, devoid of fish and shrimp, and absent of birds and insects, presents a desolate and lonely landscape.
In the present underworld of the Netherworld, the Witch Clan’s Hades has not yet been established, and within the endless Sea of Blood, there is only one living being, the River Styx.
In this vast world, solitude prevails. Ye Xiu came here with the intention of witnessing a grand prehistoric event. Before this, he entrusted the land of chaos to Styx, allowing him to establish his power.
Ye Xiu felt that Styx’s opportunity to reach quasi-sainthood was imminent. Upon his arrival, Ye Xiu effortlessly traversed billions of miles across the vast Sea of Blood. Throughout his journey, he encountered no signs of life.
The entire Sea of Blood remained eerily silent, filled with hostility and a pervasive aura of violence. In such a hostile environment, the emergence of life seemed impossible.
In the depths of the Sea of Blood, Ye Xiu noticed Styx sitting atop the twelfth-grade fire-red lotus, diligently refining the boundless Sea of Blood and absorbing its malevolent energy to enhance his cultivation. After countless eons, Styx had finally refined most of the Nether Blood Sea, becoming its ruler and mastering a portion of this world.
“Styx, if you don’t attain quasi-sainthood now, when will you?” Ye Xiu suddenly spoke, offering a reminder to Styx.
His words resonated magnificently, akin to the solemn notes of a bell. They carried a profound and mystical message that reached Styx’s ears. In an instant, the twelfth-grade karma lotus trembled, and Styx’s eyes snapped open as if he had achieved enlightenment.
He felt a connection to the world’s essence, and in response, he scattered a piece of dark, chaotic soil into the air. Simultaneously, he stirred the essence of the heavens and the earth, generating boundless creation, and assumed the form of a god of creation. With this transformation, he wielded supreme power.
Then, Styx exclaimed, “Heaven and earth possess spirits, and creation is limitless. Today, I, Styx, shall combine the chaotic soil with the essence of the Nether Blood Sea to create the mightiest races!”
Styx waved his hand as he spoke, causing the Sea of Blood to surge with vitality. Crystal-clear blood beads separated from the sea, suspended in the air, resembling countless stars in the sky. These blood beads contained the essence of the Sea of Blood. Styx then fused each of these blood beads with the chaotic soil. In doing so, he merged a strand of his soul, creating three thousand primordial deities and using them to bring forth life.
In an instant, the scene transformed. The surroundings became glorious and magnificent, with blood-red clouds obscuring the sky.
Rainbows rolled and filled the air, creating a grand and imposing spectacle. Above the Sea of Blood, the essence of the sea, mixed with the chaotic soil and the three thousand blood god offspring, condensed into blood cocoons.
Within these blood cocoons, life teemed with vitality. Even when Ye Xiu witnessed the scene before him, his eyes couldn’t help but shine, witnessing the first batch of creatures born in the Nether Blood Sea!
Under the vast mana irrigation of the Styx River, those blood cocoons began to give birth, and their life force became increasingly robust.
In no time, they gave birth to acquired creatures that had never appeared in the prehistoric world. These beings, whether male or female, resembled the humans of later eras, possessing noses, eyes, hands, and feet.
The women were stunningly beautiful, while the men were robust and imposing. Regardless of gender, they were born warriors, exuding a powerful fighting spirit and a surging malevolent aura.
Compared to the human race of later generations, these creatures had even more potent bloodlines, robust bodies, and resilient vitality.
They were stronger than the Asura clan created by Styx in later times!
Upon seeing this scene, the River Styx’s blood boiled, and he laughed heartily, shouting, “Today, I, the River Styx, establish the Blood Sea lineage and the Nether Clan. I am willing to open up the territory for the underworld and suppress the fate of the Netherworld!”
“Look, learn from the great way!” He exclaimed.
Styx’s voice, full of his vast cultivation, resounded like thunder, spreading throughout the prehistoric world. The Great Dao sensed it, and between heaven and earth, the sound of the Dao echoed, filling the universe with the supreme path rhyme.
It seemed as if the Dao itself was responding to Styx!
In an instant, as Styx established the Nether Clan in the Sea of Blood and announced it to the prehistoric world, the Dao bore witness. This instantly drew the attention of many creatures from the prehistoric world.
One after another, they were stunned by this unexpected news. In the Purple Heaven Palace, Hongjun was in the midst of delivering his sermon when he was suddenly interrupted by this commotion.
The creatures in the Purple Heaven Palace all had their faces change dramatically!
“What on earth has happened?!”
“Who has triggered the Voice of the Great Dao?!!”
…
The place was in an uproar. The once solemn and quiet hall had suddenly become noisy and chaotic. Hongjun, though his face remained calm, had a turbulent sea within him, and his mind was in a daze.
As far as he knew, it wasn’t time for Styx to create a race?!!
Why now…
This is an anomaly, truly an anomaly!!
“What is Styx planning?!!”
Gradually, a barely perceptible shade of darkness flashed in Hongjun’s eyes. He gritted his teeth and spoke in a deep voice.
