Chapter 17: Chaotic Celestial Order, the Emergence of the Nether Clan!
“……”
The Purple Heaven Palace suddenly grew profoundly quiet after tumult and excitement. You could hear a pin drop. Hongjun also fell into a momentary silence. In his calculations, Styx’s opportunity for enlightenment was not at this moment.
After the Three Discourses of the Purple Heaven Palace, spanning countless ages, starting with Nüwa’s ascension to divinity, the five great celestial sages achieved enlightenment one after another.
Later, many powerful beings discovered that Nüwa’s creation of humans brought great merit and fortune. They began to emulate her, creating their races.
Styx, who lived in the same era as Nüwa, was naturally discontent and joined the endeavor of “creating humans.” However, simply creating a race wouldn’t yield immeasurable merit.
Nüwa succeeded in her path to divinity and sanctification because the human race would play a crucial role in the future of the world. Others, including the later Asura clan, were considered outliers.
This left Styx without any results in his pursuit of enlightenment, and the proliferation of the bloodthirsty Asura clan tainted him with significant karma. However, Styx had created a new race and gained recognition from the Great Tao, which left Hongjun bewildered.
The vast cosmic boundaries radiated with a golden glow in the depths of the ancient starry sky. From the celestial dome, endless merits and fortunes shrouded the Netherworld’s Sea of Blood and fell upon Styx. Light flourished above the boundless sea of blood for a moment, engulfing the sky with starlight and moonlight, displaying traces of the Great Tao. Styx, after absorbing immeasurable merits, rapidly ascended in cultivation, reaching the peak of quasi-sainthood and becoming unmatched.
His power, derived from the Great Tao’s merit, was several times stronger than that of a Heavenly Tao quasi-sage. If it weren’t for the fact that the Patriarch Clan wouldn’t be the future world’s protagonists, Styx might have ascended to sainthood, transcending everything and breaking free from the constraints of the heavens. Even so, Styx’s breakthrough to the pinnacle of quasi-sainthood left him deeply content.
“This shouldn’t be happening…”
“Everything is in chaos. Destiny itself is disrupted!”
“Who could be behind this fate manipulation, causing Styx to proclaim his enlightenment hundreds of thousands of years earlier?”
Hongjun sat in the Purple Heaven Palace, feeling uneasy and anxious. His calculations couldn’t yield any answers.
As he pondered, Styx, wearing a radiant smile, full of vitality, approached a young man in an elegant white robe. He knelt down and exclaimed excitedly, “I am deeply grateful to you for guiding me on this path, allowing me to achieve quasi-sainthood successfully!”
And the person Styx bowed down to was not Ye Xiu… who else could it be?
Boom!
Until Hongjun’s Dharma Eye penetrated the endless void and saw Ye Xiu’s true face, his heart suddenly shook.
In his heart, he suddenly realized, “It’s really him… Taoist Ye Xiu!”
“This oddity! It was he who disrupted the order of the heavens!”
No need to say it. Ye Xiu was undoubtedly the person who guided Styx in creating the Nether Clan in the Sea of Blood. Furthermore, Styx’s ability to bypass the Celestial Order and directly pledge allegiance to the Great Dao was undoubtedly a result of Ye Xiu’s guidance.
After a moment of shock and horror, Hongjun gradually forced himself to regain his composure and quickly came up with a solution. After some time, Hongjun spoke again and continued to preach.
In the Purple Heaven Palace, the sacred dignity was gradually restored, and the three thousand beings from the mortal world slowly entered a state of profound enlightenment.
Regarding what happened in Honghuang just now, it was as if it had never happened…
Hongjun didn’t mention it, and they didn’t dare to ask!
In the Endless sea of blood, Styx was kneeling before Ye Xiu. But Ye Xiu’s gaze wasn’t fixed solely on Styx. It swept across the hundreds of thousands of Nether Clan beings before him. He nodded lightly and calmly remarked, “These Nether Clan beings, infused with the essence of primordial chaos, possess remarkably powerful primordial spirits, and bodies that are no less formidable than those of the Witch Clan. They are born warriors… River Styx nurtures this force well. In the future, they shall conquer the heavens, forge their path, and dominate the prehistoric chaos. It is only a matter of time!”
“Conquer the heavens…forge their path…dominate the prehistoric?!!”
“Hiss~”
After hearing Ye Xiu’s words, Patriarch Styx’s heart was suddenly shaken, and he didn’t dare to respond immediately, taking in deep breaths of cold air. However, he didn’t dare to question Ye Xiu’s words and firmly believed in them.
Upon introspection, these Nether Clan beings were the most potential presence in the prehistoric world, apart from innate gods, demons, and creatures.
Moreover, these creatures have received recognition from Ye Xiu, the ancient figure!
Styx naturally had unwavering faith in this!
