Chapter 91 The Great Heavenly Demon's Influence
Chant!
A clear stream bloomed in the boundless darkness, ethereal and bright, crystal clear, surpassing everything. The supreme and noble sword intent slowly rippled out, tearing open the giant maw of the Blood Sea Crocodile.
With a flick of his wrist, Fuxi unleashed a clear sword light that tore through the surrounding darkness in an instant.
A large amount of blood-red light poured down, and the Blood Sea Giant Crocodile outside let out a painful roar. A sliver of clear light bloomed from the center of the Blood Sea Giant Crocodile's head.
With a flash of sword light, the head of the Blood Sea Giant Crocodile was cleaved in two from the inside out by Fuxi's sword.
Endless crimson light surged down from both sides of Fuxi, and the cleaved body of the Blood Sea Giant Crocodile collapsed into countless streams of blood that surged along the cuts, like two blood-red waterfalls facing each other.
Fuxi stood between the two blood-red waterfalls, the Dongjun Sword in his palm already returned to its sheath.
Click!
The metallic sound of the sword hilt and scabbard closing rang out, and the blood-red world surrounding Fuxi began to collapse continuously, gradually revealing the fourth layer of the grotto-heaven world.
One after another, the grotto-heavens of the worlds appeared. Fuxi drew his sword, the Eastern Lord Sword, and destroyed each grotto-heaven with a single strike.
Compared to the Chaos Four Symbols Divine Restriction, the Dongjun Sword, which carries Fuxi's own sword intent and the five major sword techniques, is much more powerful in terms of killing force.
Each cave world was revealed for no more than a hundred breaths before Fuxi shattered the sea of blood within them with absolute power, destroying endless spacetime foundations and obliterating the entire cave world.
Blood God Cave Heaven, Karmic Fire Cave Heaven, Slaughter Cave Heaven, Formless Cave Heaven, Blood Lotus Cave Heaven...
One by one, the grotto-heavens were shattered by Fuxi. The first few grotto-heavens were not too difficult for Fuxi, but the last three grotto-heavens contained beings whose combat power was comparable to the peak of the Taiyi realm.
It took Fuxi considerable effort to defeat the innate killing demon god, the karmic fire demon king, and the billions of blood god children in these three grotto heavens.
The twelve layers of grotto-heavens were all destroyed and shattered. The Blood God Grotto-heaven where Fuxi stood slowly dissipated. A wisp of blood light flew out from the body of the last Blood God Child who died and landed in Fuxi's hand.
A look of understanding flashed in Fuxi's eyes as he read the information within the blood-red light, his expression remaining calm.
"Just as I thought."
What Fuxi saw when the Twelve Heavens shattered was not the passage to leave the world of the Twelve Heavens, but rather the Styx, dressed in a blood-red cloak with an excited expression on his face.
"Thank you for your trouble, fellow Daoist."
"I am a good friend of Houtu, how could I sit idly by and watch you be corrupted by Rahu? It is only right that I take action."
Fuxi lifted Styx with his palm, allowing him to stand up. The Netherworld Token was revealed in his palm, putting Styx at ease.
Looking at the twelve-tiered karmic fire lotus at the foot of the River Styx, Fuxi said, "Your idea of using the twelve-tiered karmic fire lotus to evolve into twelve layers of grotto heavens to resist Rahu's demonic influence on you is correct."
"Your own strength is far from enough to resist Rahu's Great Field Demonic Dye, but the Karmic Fire Red Lotus is of extremely high quality. Even Rahu cannot dye this high-quality twelfth-grade red lotus in a short time."
"Brother Dao's realm is indeed profound. I only have the Twelfth Grade Karmic Fire Red Lotus to offer some resistance against Rahu's demonic influence."
A hint of regret crept into Styx's voice as he looked at the red lotus beneath his feet, a pang of heartache flashing in his eyes.
"My extraction of the essence of the Twelfth Grade Karmic Fire Red Lotus to evolve the Twelve Heavenly Caves was a last resort. If the situation hadn't been so critical at the time, I wouldn't have been willing to damage the essence of the Karmic Fire Red Lotus."
"Brother Dao should have sensed it as well. The twelve layers of grotto-heavens I created have not completely severed Rahu's demonic influence on you. Apart from the last three layers of grotto-heavens, the previous nine layers have already been corrupted by Rahu's demonic influence."
"In this Nine Heavens world, the Blood Sea Path and the Demonic Path are in conflict, which is why you didn't encounter any major obstacles in the previous Nine Heavens worlds."
"Over the years, I have been unable to shake off Rahu's demonic influence. Even the Karmic Fire Red Lotus has lost most of its original restrictions to Rahu. I beg you, fellow Daoist, to help me sever the demonic seed in my heart."
Styx bowed deeply to Fuxi, his tone sincere, a hint of nervousness on his face.
Fuxi possessed the Netherworld Token, which meant he must have a good relationship with Houtu. However, the extent of their relationship remained unclear even to the Styx River.
Styx wondered if Fuxi would be willing to offend Rahu, the Demon Ancestor, who had a fearsome reputation throughout the entire prehistoric world, for the sake of Houtu.
"There's no need for such a grand gesture. Putting aside the fact that Houtu and I are good friends, I also have some grudges with Rahu. I will naturally help you resolve the demonic corruption within you."
Fuxi helped Styx up, looked at the joyful Styx before him, and chuckled: "But don't be happy yet, Rahu's demonic influence is not so easy to eradicate."
"Luo Hou's Great Heavenly Demonic Dye can be said to be one of the most bizarre and unpredictable divine abilities in the primordial world. This divine ability uses desire to manipulate the mind and soul, thereby controlling the other party's consciousness."
"Even though I am skilled in the ways of desire and soul, I am not absolutely certain that I can eliminate the demonic seed within you."
A bright red light shone in Fuxi's eyes, and amidst the fluctuations of his seven emotions and six desires, a billowing demonic aura, like smoke, suddenly emanated from the Styx River before Fuxi.
A celestial demon, draped in a dark cloak, wearing a black lotus jade crown, and with a blood-red silk belt, appeared behind Styx, coldly staring at Fuxi and Styx.
"The Great Demon King?"
"The Lord of Ten Thousand Demons!"
Fuxi and Styx exchanged glances and each uttered the name of this celestial demon.
The Great Heavenly Demon King, the Lord of Ten Thousand Demon Kingdoms, the Daoless Demon Lord—these are all titles for this Great Heavenly Demon. The essence of this Heavenly Demon is completely different from other Heavenly Demons in the demonic path.
Ordinary celestial demons are formed by the combination of desire and yin turbid demonic energy. Although these celestial demons are not weak in essence, Fuxi's understanding of the way of desire far surpasses that of Rahu.
As long as this point remains unchanged, no matter how many celestial demons Rahu evolves, it will only be to strengthen the five desires under Fuxi's control.
However, this Lord of Ten Thousand Demons is different. In the past, when Rahu founded the demonic path, seven supreme heavenly demons were born in response to the demonic path's fortune, thus splitting the demonic path's fortune.
However, since Rahu had finally established the demonic path, how could he tolerate the birth of these seven celestial demons to rule the demonic path with him?
Therefore, Rahu, who was not yet a primordial god or demon at the time, forcibly contained these seven celestial demons in his own physical body and fought them for 100,000 years within his body.
Ten thousand years later, Rahu devoured the origins of the seven supreme demons, thus touching upon a part of the essence of the Way of Desire.
Later, Rahu transformed into a primordial god-demon and shed his remaining body.
This remnant body, which had incorporated parts of the essence of the seven great demons, was fused by Rahu and the 120,000 great demons, and shaped into Rahu's strongest incarnation, which is the Lord of Ten Thousand Demons before Fuxi and Styx.
