Chapter 17 The Ghost Immortal's Path Emerges, Trembling Throughout the Primordial World
After taking the gourd vine, along with the soil and divine water beneath it, the Styx River did not hesitate any longer and headed straight for the Netherworld Blood Sea.
Not long after Styx left, Nuwa and Fuxi realized something was wrong and felt that there was still an opportunity they hadn't taken. They returned together.
At that time, the attention of all the great supernatural beings was focused on the top-grade innate spiritual treasures they had already obtained, as well as the gourd that had been taken away by the Sage Hongjun. Even Nuwa was distracted by this and did not have time to notice the gourd vine, the Breath Soil, and the Three Lights Divine Water.
Nuwa and Fuxi stared in disbelief at the now empty mountain stream, where nothing remained.
Who is this?
Poor crazy?
Why not just take the land along with it?
"Don't rush, let me cast a divination for you, brother." Fuxi unfolded the Eight Trigrams of the Primordial Era and was about to begin his deduction. As long as he knew who had obtained the Primordial Gourd Vine, the Breath Soil, and the Three Lights Divine Water, he could simply pay a small price to get them back.
"Enough." Nuwa shook her head, stopping Fuxi's deduction.
What is destined to happen will happen eventually. Moreover, Nuwa clearly noticed that the last person to leave was Styx. Deep down, she didn't really want to deal with this great supernatural being who cultivated the Great Dao of Killing.
At this moment, Nuwa had no idea how much opportunity a withered innate gourd vine, a piece of life soil, and a little bit of the Three Lights Divine Water could contain.
For Nuwa and Fuxi, the most important thing now is to go back and sort out what they have learned from this sermon, refine the newly acquired top-grade innate spiritual treasure, and prepare for the Dao Ancestor's next sermon.
……
More than a thousand years later, a beam of blood-red light fell upon the sea of blood; it was the River Styx.
Styx raised his hand and summoned the Twelve-Petaled Karmic Fire Red Lotus. Boundless karmic fire swept across the area. Sitting cross-legged on the lotus platform, Styx looked at the sea of blood before him and began to deduce.
At this moment, the sea of blood is filled with rampant zombies, while the Asura race lives in their own territory.
"The reproduction rate is a bit slow." Styx looked at the Asuras. Since he left the Blood Sea to listen to the Dao at Zixiao Palace and went to Buzhou Mountain to retrieve the Primordial Gourd Vine, the number of Asuras has hardly increased in thousands of years. Is that right?
Compared to other creatures in the primordial world, the Asura race's reproduction rate is far too slow. Could it be even faster than the Witch race?
However, Styx soon discovered the reason.
In fact, compared to the Wu tribe, the Asura tribe reproduced quite quickly. However, the Asuras were naturally warlike, and many Asuras perished in internal strife.
"That won't do. The Asuras are the backbone of the Blood Sea's future." Styx frowned as he looked at the Asuras. As the main source of his fortune, it was unacceptable for the Asura population to remain stagnant.
We can't keep relying on him to build things, what kind of situation would that be?
He is a powerful being, yet he cannot act as a babysitter for the Asuras.
With a wave of his hand, Styx summoned the four Asura Kings, the four Asura Generals, and a series of other high-ranking Asuras he had previously appointed to his position before him.
"Greetings, Ancestor!" The Asura high-ranking members bowed respectfully to Styx.
"Issue the order: from this day forward, the Asura race shall not kill each other. Anyone who disobeys shall be killed without exception." Styx looked at the Asura race before him and issued his own "decree." His majestic voice, amplified by the Great Dao of Slaughter, instantly resounded throughout the Blood Sea. Styx's killing intent instantly overwhelmed all beings on the Blood Sea.
The Asura race, along with a host of zombies and the wronged souls drowning in the sea of blood, were all forced to kneel on the ground by this terrifying pressure, daring not to show the slightest disrespect.
"We will obey the Ancestor's decree!" the Asura clan members replied tremblingly.
"Too weak." The Styx Primordial Spirit swept across the entire sea of blood. The strongest among the Asura race were only the Four Asura Kings.
Hongjun divided cultivators' cultivation levels into nine realms from low to high according to the Dao of Immortality: Earth Immortal, Heavenly Immortal, True Immortal, Mysterious Immortal, Golden Immortal, Taiyi Golden Immortal, Daluo Golden Immortal, Quasi-Saint (Hunyuan Golden Immortal), and Saint (Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal). According to this standard, the four strongest Asura Kings of the Asura race were only at the Heavenly Immortal realm.
In the primordial era, such a small tribe would have had virtually no presence.
"Is it because I was only a Great Luo Golden Immortal when I created the Asura race?" Styx wondered to himself. This was the first time he had seriously examined his creations.
Even if he, Styx, had no intention of dominating the primordial world, and did not rely on these Asuras, the strength of the Asuras could still bring him some fortune, while these Asuras... seemed a bit too weak.
"A hundred years from now, I will preach to the Asura race for a hundred years. Go back and prepare yourselves well." Styx waved his sleeve and led the Asura race's high-ranking members back to the Asura race.
"Thank you for your kindness, Ancestor." After returning to their clan, the Asuras all knelt down and bowed in the direction of Styx upon learning that Styx was about to preach. In the primordial world, who could refuse the preaching of a great master?
In particular, Styx, as the creator of the Asura race and the one who mainly cultivates the Great Way of Killing, must have a teaching that is most suitable for the Asura race.
After that, Styx stopped paying attention to the Asuras. For the Asuras now, it was enough to send out an avatar or a Blood God Child to preach the Dao. There was no need for his main body to take action. Having many avatars was an advantage.
After that, Styx began to concentrate on studying his Great Dao of the Soul. More precisely, Styx wanted to combine the Great Dao of the Soul he obtained from the system with the Immortal Dao he learned from Hongjun's sermons to create a cultivation path suitable for the ghosts of the primordial world.
After all, so far, there is no path to ghost immortals in the primordial world, and it would be a waste to leave so many wronged souls and various kinds of yin energy on the Blood Sea like this.
Once he achieves the path of the Ghost Immortal, he will be the "Ancestor of Ghost Immortals," and in terms of rank, he will be no less than Zhen Yuanzi, the "Ancestor of Earth Immortals."
At that time, he will definitely offer the words "Heaven and Earth" above the sea of blood to show off his status as the ancestor of ghost immortals and a great supernatural being!
This act not only perfected the primordial world but also perfected the mainstream path of the primordial world in the future—the Immortal Path. While gaining a massive amount of merit, as the Ghost Immortal Path grows stronger in the primordial world, his fortune as the ancestor of Ghost Immortals will also grow stronger.
It is a great act of merit that should not be missed.
"Hmm, we need to ensure that all the ghosts that the myriad spirits of the primordial world turn into after death can cultivate this path. At the same time, when the ghost immortals cultivate, they can also absorb some of the yin energy between heaven and earth to purify the primordial world..." Styx summoned some wronged souls that had sunk on the sea of blood and began to study them carefully.
