Chapter 93 The Army
"Having fused together the essence of the demonic path and the origin of the Karmic Fire Red Lotus, if this Heavenly Demon Blood Embryo were used to refine an avatar, I fear I could obtain an avatar at the Taiyi realm within a hundred years."
Fuxi looked at the Heavenly Demon Blood Embryo in his palm, which was shimmering with wisps of demonic energy and blood light, and shook his head: "Unfortunately, I have no intention of creating any incarnations."
Although Fuxi did not intend to use the Heavenly Demon Blood Embryo to create an incarnation, the essence of the Heavenly Demon Blood Embryo was extremely pure, making it a top-tier material for both alchemy and weapon crafting.
Fuxi absorbed the Heavenly Demon Blood Embryo into his Purple Mansion, and the Dongjun Sword once again unleashed thousands of bright red sword lights, sweeping back and forth in the Styx's Purple Mansion, annihilating all the wisps of demonic energy and strands of demonic seeds hidden deep within the Styx's soul consciousness.
The crimson tide engulfed everything, and Fuxi forcibly twisted the Purple Palace of the Styx into a furnace, using the seven emotions and six desires as fire and the karma of the mortal world as fuel to continuously burn and simmer it.
A full century later, after confirming that there were no demonic thoughts in the River Styx's Purple Palace, Fuxi withdrew from it.
In the blood-red world outside, the Styx River in front of Fuxi regained some light in its eyes, but its expression remained somewhat blank.
Fuxi grasped the Seven Emotions and Six Desires Blade, which was embedded between the eyebrows of the Styx River, with his right hand. With a squeeze of his five fingers, the magnificent long blade shattered instantly.
As the seven emotions and six desires arose, and the various affairs of the mortal world surged, the Styx's stiff face instantly became lively.
As he exhaled a breath of turbid air, memories of the great battle between Fuxi and the Demon Lord of Ten Thousand Kingdoms in his Purple Mansion surfaced in Styx's mind, and a hint of lingering fear flashed in his eyes.
Styx rose and bowed to Fuxi again: "Brother Dao, I will never forget your great kindness and virtue. In the future, I will obey your every command."
"I'll remember that."
Fuxi smiled and reached out to help the Styx River up.
As one of the three great powers of the underworld, Styx's destiny is naturally connected to the underworld's blood sea. Fuxi can confirm that Styx's future is limitless, and befriending Styx would be entirely beneficial to Fuxi.
On the Shura Isle, atop the shattered Demon Palace, the twelve layers of crimson lotuses of karmic fire trembled slowly, their wisps of demonic energy constantly being repelled and crushed by the clear, blood-red light.
Above the blood lotus, Styx looked at Chi Xie and the other two, who were riding the blood light and attacking Fuxi, and a cold glint flashed in his eyes.
The twelve-layered blood lotus slowly rotated, and the blood mist surging over the entire Shura Isle was instantly drained by the karmic fire red lotus. Without the surrounding blood mist, the auras of Chi Xie and the other two weakened to varying degrees.
With a thought, Styx unleashed a blinding burst of blood-red light from the bodies of Chi Xie and the other two. Their faces turned pale as Styx destroyed the blood demon foundations that had been forged over millions of years.
As the master of the Blood Sea Demon Palace, Styx holds the power of life and death over all the disciples of the Blood Sea Demon Palace. Even if Chi Xie's cultivation reaches the Taiyi realm, he cannot escape Styx's control over their own cultivation system and the Blood Sea Demon Qi within their bodies.
In fact, if Fuxi hadn't destroyed the demonic seed and demonic nature within Styx's body, Styx's life and death would have been affected by Rahu.
Even though the Twelve-Grade Karmic Fire Red Lotus protected a portion of the Styx's origin, Rahu could still directly annihilate a portion of the origin he controlled, severely damaging the Styx.
Three streaks of crimson gold fireflies fell, and amidst countless sparks, Fuxi extinguished the last vestiges of life for Chi Xie and his companions.
As Fuxi approached the Styx River, he expanded his divine sense and saw all the Blood Sea Demon Palace disciples on Blood River Island lying on the ground in agony, their faces flushed red, uttering agonizing howls.
"You've broken free from Rahu's demonic influence. The leaders of the other four demonic palaces should have received Rahu's orders by now. Are you keeping these Blood Sea Demonic Palace disciples alive to fight the other four demonic palaces to the death?"
Fuxi looked at the cold-faced Styx and shook his head: "You should know that with your strength, you are only the leader of the Blood Sea Demon Palace. The leaders of the other four demon palaces must have similar cultivation and combat power to you."
"Among these four, there might even be a demonic incarnation of Rahu. You have no chance against those four demonic palaces."
"Moreover, the Western Sea has been cultivated by the demonic path for countless years. Even you, the leader of the Blood Sea Demon Palace, probably don't know what kind of resources it has."
"Even with the Azure Dragon Army I brought, it is very likely that we would not be able to defeat these four Demon Palaces if we rashly start a war against them."
"My suggestion is that you lead these Blood Sea Demon Palace disciples to hide for the time being and continue to strengthen the Blood Sea Demon Palace's power."
"I will expand the Azure Dragon lineage in the Western Sea to attract the attention of the four great demon palaces. When the time is right, you and I will work together, one in the open and one in the shadows, to eliminate all four great demon palaces one by one."
Styx frowned as he looked at Fuxi, a hint of hesitation flashing in his eyes. Having been corrupted by Rahu for millions of years, Styx was filled with an uncontrollable rage, and he couldn't wait to take revenge on Rahu and the demonic path.
However, Styx knew that Fuxi's words were correct. After hesitating for a moment, Styx looked at Fuxi, sighed, and nodded: "Brother, your words are very wise."
"It's good that you understand. We are innate gods and demons with endless lifespans. There's no need to rush to settle our karmic grievances. Of course, if there's an opportunity, it's best to settle them immediately."
Fuxi looked at the stunned Styx and smiled. The Twelfth Grade Karmic Fire Red Lotus expanded into an island, and all the disciples of the Blood Sea Demon Palace were swallowed into the cave world within the Blood Lotus, and followed Styx into the abyss of the Western Sea.
With the Twelve-Petaled Karmic Fire Red Lotus suppressing the heavens, the Styx River need not worry about being found by the demonic forces. Even if Rahu brings the Great Millstone of Chaos and Return to Nothingness to the Western Sea, he may not be able to break through the heavenly secrets obscured by the Karmic Fire Red Lotus, one of the Four Great Lotus Platforms.
"The Styx River can be used as a hidden pawn, which will be a great help when dealing with the remaining four Demon Palaces. However, the Styx River alone is not enough, and my opponents in the Western Sea are not only the Demonic Path."
A complex look flashed in his eyes, and Fuxi transformed into a beam of light, flying towards the temporary base of the Azure Dragon lineage.
In the rugged and winding western sea, the Azure Dragon's million-strong army formed a battle formation to confront the opposing army of 2.6 million Horseshoe Crab Clan.
While the Azure Dragon Army is far outnumbered by the Horseshoe Crab Army, the Azure Dragon Army's cultivators possess greater academic strength and combat power than the individual cultivators of the Horseshoe Crab Army. Therefore, with one million against two million six hundred thousand, the Azure Dragon Army is not at all at a disadvantage.
The grand formation was complete, and the million-strong Azure Dragon army unleashed countless azure lightning bolts, bombarding the Horseshoe Crab army. A faint, mysterious light emanated from the armor, and layers of thick, sturdy armor were stacked above the Horseshoe Crab army, blocking all the raging lightning and electricity.
As the armies clashed, the roars and howls of dragons echoed endlessly. From within the Azure Dragon army, towering Thunder Towers rose, unleashing thousands upon thousands of divine thunderbolts that tore large swathes of the Horseshoe Crab army to shreds.
