Chapter 45 The Underworld's Heavenly Cabinet, the Netherworld's Blood Sea

Upon hearing Houtu's words, Fuxi knew that a great battle was imminent.

With a slightly serious expression, Fuxi's eyes lit up with bright red light and dark radiance. Five elements gathered in his chest, and life and death circulated in his palms. His own energy had been raised to its peak.

A century later, with the final shattering of space, Houtu, Fuxi, and Xuanming appeared in the northernmost part of the Netherworld.

What came into Fuxi's view was an extremely magnificent colossal wall that divided the heavens and earth on both sides, blocking all of Fuxi's vision. It was located in the far north, encompassing the endless ten directions above and below. This was the Yin World Heavenly Cabinet.

This Yin World Heavenly Cabinet was so magnificent and vast that even Fuxi's divine sense could not grasp its end. It was also entwined with a grand aura that surpassed everything, bearing a slight resemblance to the Zhou Mountain Heavenly Pillar of the primordial world.

This Yin World Heavenly Cabinet likely also bears the heavy responsibility of supporting the Netherworld and suppressing the spiritual energy of the earth's veins.

Below this Yin World Heavenly Cabinet lies a boundless sea of ​​blood, as vast and boundless as a real ocean.

A clear, bright blood-red light continuously rose from the sea of ​​blood, and countless blood lines spread from the sea of ​​blood toward the Underworld Cabinet, connecting in the lower left corner of the Underworld Cabinet to form a large, vibrant blood-red lotus.

"The Netherworld Blood Sea is formed from all the filth and turbidity of the Netherworld, and its essence is vast and boundless."

"This great formation is based on the Netherworld Blood Sea, involving seventy-two kinds of Netherworld Calamities, and formed by twelve earth vein spiritual mechanisms. Its essence is extremely high, and its sealing power is also impeccable."

"Even if I were sealed inside, without hundreds of thousands of years of research, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to break through this great formation."

Fuxi carefully examined the great formation that resembled a blood-red lotus and had to admit that the formation evolved by Houtu and the other two indeed possessed extremely powerful sealing power.

Even a Golden Immortal-level innate god or demon would have no chance of escape once trapped in this great formation. That Mingli might really be a Taiyi realm powerhouse from another world.

"The great formation has not yet been broken. With the combined strength of the three of us drawing upon the turbid blood energy in the Netherworld Blood Sea, we should be able to reinforce this great formation and seal the Netherworld Dragon again for a period of time."

Xuanming frowned as he looked at the blood-red lotus that had cracked open, and a chilling aura emanated from his body.

Houtu looked at the blood-red lotus and frowned deeply.

Houtu's cultivation is superior to Xuanming's. Judging from the current growth rate of the Netherworld Qi in the Crimson Lotus, this Netherworld Blood Sea Five Extremes Formation will probably only be able to seal the opponent for another thousand years at most before it breaks down.

Even if the three of them work together to repair and strengthen this great formation, the Netherworld Blood Sea Five Extremes Formation probably won't last much longer.

"The method of sealing is not a long-term solution. I suggest that we reverse this great formation, gather the power of the three of us, and detonate it to severely injure the opponent before he breaks the seal."

"Mingli was sealed away for hundreds of thousands of years, and then we severely injured it. In addition, due to the different laws of the world, it can still exert some of its strength."

Fuxi saw the flow of the I Ching and instantly deduced a more convenient method.

Mingli is an invader from another world and is already suppressed by the Primordial Heavenly Dao. Now, he has been sealed and severely injured by the explosion of the great formation. If the three of them still cannot defeat him, then the Primordial Heaven and Earth are destined to be destroyed.

Upon hearing this, Xuanming glanced at Fuxi, surprised by Fuxi's confidence.

Mingli is very likely a powerful being at the Taiyi realm. The gap between major realms is countless. Xuanming doesn't know why Fuxi is so confident, but Xuanming can sense that Fuxi has no respect whatsoever for Mingli, this powerful being at the Taiyi realm.

Throughout the entire process, she saw not a trace of worry or anxiety on Fuxi's face.

"Does Brother Dao think this method is feasible?"

Houtu looked at Fuxi and asked, her expression showing some interest.

Rather than leaving this hidden danger, Houtu naturally wanted to resolve it once and for all, and Fuxi's solution was exactly what she wanted.

However, whether or not the Mingli can be resolved is related to the safety of the underworld and even the primordial world, and Houtu must be cautious.

"You should know that my foundation is the Dao-based spiritual light source that I created. The key and foundation of this source is connecting heaven and earth. Do you know what it's called when a cultivator is perfectly connected with the Dao of Heaven?"

Houtu looked at Fuxi, and with just a turn of her primordial spirit, she understood the meaning of Fuxi's words. A look of shock flashed in her eyes.

Beside Houtu, Xuanming's pupils also contracted as she looked at Fuxi. At this moment, she finally understood why Fuxi had never worried about Mingli from beginning to end.

"In that case, let's use your method, brother, and finish the job in one fell swoop!"

Houtu smiled, and the power of the Netherworld Blood Sea began to boil under her will. The vast and boundless power of the blood sea poured into the Five Extreme Array of the Netherworld Blood Sea like rivers of blood.

Houtu's Earth Sphere axis drew upon the spiritual energy of the ten directions' earth veins, transforming it into a torrent that surged into the great formation.

Xuanming spread his right hand, and five gleaming white ice arrows, carrying a brilliant silver glow, pierced into the ever-expanding and vibrating crimson lotus.

"The power of this self-destruction is probably enough to annihilate a Taiyi realm expert. I hope you can hold on. An invader from another world is of immeasurable value. Don't just die in obscurity."

The Fish-Dragon Diagram appeared in Fuxi's hand, and a gray-white banner appeared. Fuxi waved the banner with his right hand, and a series of heaven-opening light blades that divided yin and yang, purity and turbidity, slashed into the blood-red lotus.

The Netherworld Blood Sea, the Earth's Spiritual Energy, the Mysterious Yin Flying Snow, and the Heaven-Opening Light Blade—four immense powers—mixed and surged within the crimson lotus. The originally stable Five Extremes Array of the Netherworld Blood Sea began to become frenzied and violent, and the essence of this great array had been greatly damaged.

"Let's begin."

As soon as Fuxi finished speaking, a fierce glint appeared in Houtu's eyes. The Five Extremes Formation of the Netherworld Blood Sea instantly reversed, and the infinite power within the formation was transformed into the ultimate destructive power.

A blinding crimson light erupted in an instant, and the five-colored radiance exploded with a deafening roar. A massive mushroom cloud shook the Yin World Heavenly Cabinet, and vast amounts of mountain rocks and earth energy burst forth, disrupting the flow of Yin energy within a radius of hundreds of thousands of miles.

Countless calamities of the underworld erupted, only to be annihilated by the immense power of the self-destruction of the Five Extreme Arrays of the Underworld Blood Sea. Under the overwhelmingly expanding destructive power, everything shrouded in the blood-red light was reduced to dust.

A huge pit appeared in the lower left corner of the Underworld Cabinet. Although it was extremely small compared to the Underworld Cabinet that suppressed the North Pole of the Netherworld, the pit was actually millions of miles in diameter, which was terrifying.

Amidst the chaotic dust and blood-red light, Fuxi, Houtu, and Xuanming stared intently at the spot where the blood-red lotus had originally stood.
