Honghuang: The Golden Crow Emperor, starts by robbing the Three Pure Ones

Chapter 870 The Trace of Time

Chaos reigned, and order vanished.

The Chaos Sea is a chaotic collection containing countless possibilities, where time and space intertwine in a disordered manner.

Perhaps taking just one step will allow you to witness a vast world, or perhaps it will remain an endless void!
To traverse the chaos, one must possess considerable cultivation and have one's own Great Dao as guidance.

At this moment, a figure was riding the waves in the chaotic sea.

The figure was dressed in black, carrying a bamboo basket on his back, holding a pen engraved with ancient runes in his left hand, and a mysterious painting in his right.

The painting depicts a blood-red world, devoid of any life, with countless mountains of corpses and seas of blood, filled with an atmosphere of deathly silence, eeriness, madness, and utter despair.

This is the Eternal Demon God, one of the three thousand gods and demons.

He was an anomaly; even Shen Ni, who was in the same camp, was unwilling to associate with him much.

After all, among the chaotic gods and demons, there are good ones and evil ones, but the truly insane ones are few and far between.

The Eternal God and Demon is a madman.

At this moment, he stood on the chaotic sea, holding a scroll in his hand, but he did not pick up a brush; instead, he was searching for something.

"Strange, so many tens of thousands of years have passed, why would I want to add a few more strokes to this painting?"

Each painting he created represented a bizarre world, a future he had envisioned. After finishing each painting, the Eternal Demon rarely added anything more, for the end of tragedy is nothingness, and after nothingness comes stillness.

But today, he inexplicably felt that something was missing from the painting, and even went into the Chaos Sea to search for it.

"Perhaps this is some kind of premonition," the Eternal Demon God chuckled, unconcerned.

Among the three thousand demon gods, he was unique not only in his personality but also in the Dao he represented—the Eternal Dao, immortal through countless eons. It was precisely because of the existence of the Eternal Law that beings could achieve immortality after cultivating to a certain point. It was also because of this uniqueness that he escaped the great calamity of creation.

Just as he was pondering this, a crimson flash seemed to appear deep within the chaotic sea.

"I've got it! You're there!" The Eternal Demon God's eyes suddenly lit up. He raised his hand and grabbed, and in an instant, the Chaos Sea began to boil. At that moment, it was as if a paintbrush had fallen, time was fixed, space was locked, and the boundless chaos was frozen into a painting.

Amidst this vast chaos, a striking red stood out.

"I knew I had that idea! It's because we're lacking dye!"

Seeing the red, the Eternal Demon God seemed particularly pleased, chuckling as he said, "It's been so many years since I last saw them, why are they in such a sorry state now?"

The painting of the chaotic sea trembled, and a large mass of blood-red color was ejected.

The next moment, the crimson color rapidly condensed, transforming into a sinister-looking man with deep-set features, a gloomy expression, and a blood-red robe—the Blood Demon God.

After escaping Kong Xuan's pursuit, he fled into the Chaos Sea, only to unexpectedly run into the Eternal Demon God.

"It has indeed been a long time." The Blood Demon God's expression was extremely grim. If he had encountered other demon gods, he could at least have a conversation, but he knew that the Eternal Demon God was a madman.

Perhaps after countless years of evolution, that madness has become even more intense.

"What are you doing here? I heard from Life and Death that you were sealed by Time." The Eternal Demon God put down his pen and asked with interest.

"Hmph, do you even know what the primordial era is?"

"So you ran into them, that explains it." The Eternal Demon God suddenly burst into laughter, his laughter seemingly tinged with sarcasm.

"If I hadn't been sealed off by that bastard Shichen, how could I not have escaped?" The Blood Demon God sneered, then said, "Now that I'm in your hands, do with me as you please."

"Hahaha, you old codger, you've got quite the grand air about you." The Eternal Demon God still wore a smile as he said, "Who doesn't know you old bastard are the most cunning of all?" "What I've captured now is probably your largest Blood God's clone. Even if I kill you, your true consciousness will transfer, won't it?"

The Blood Demon God's expression froze, but he didn't respond immediately. Clearly, it was indeed the truth. Having suffered such severe injuries, how could he entrust his life to a single body?

"Interested in making a bet?"

"What do you mean?" the Blood Demon God asked coldly.

"Hehe, my painting is still missing a touch of the finest blood color. If you're willing to help, that would be wonderful." The Eternal Demon God shook the scroll and said with a smile, "You provide me with dye for three thousand years, and I'll help you restore it, how about it?"

"What?" The Blood Demon God was taken aback upon hearing this.

"Is this true?"

“Really?” the Eternal Demon God replied with a smile.

"As dye?" The Blood Demon God's expression was somewhat stunned. It wasn't that he was unwilling to be dye. After all, his greatest desire at the moment was to survive and return to his prime. Let alone being dye, he would be willing to become a beast.

“I can’t trust you.” The Blood Demon God nodded slightly, then said, “However, I want to make a deal with you, which you might be interested in.”

"What kind of deal?" the Eternal Demon God asked with great interest.

"Do you want to know the traces of the time?"

"Him?" When this terrifying demon god, who could rival even the gods, was mentioned, even the eternally insane Eternal's expression suddenly became much more solemn.

"Do you know where he is?"

"Of course, but I've been with him for countless millennia!" The Blood Demon God gritted his teeth as he mentioned the time.

"Tell me."

"This is a deal; you have to offer something extra."

"Oh dear, you're still as greedy as ever." The Eternal Demon God raised his hand and flipped it, directly taking the Blood Demon God into the scroll.

"what are you up to?"

"I'll take you to see Shen Ni, and he'll pay me." The Eternal Demon God chuckled and, following the previously agreed-upon covenant, headed towards the void world where Shen Ni was currently located.

Before long, they arrived at a desolate world. All living beings and even the laws of nature had been destroyed; this was the territory of Shenni.

"Eternity, what do you intend to do by stepping into my territory?" A cold voice echoed from the depths of the world the moment he entered.

"It wasn't me; someone else wants to see you." The Eternal Demon God stepped in and came before Shen Ni.

At this moment, compared to the time of the Great War of the Primordial Era, the aura of this former strongest being seems to have increased even further.

"You've become even stronger."

“That’s natural,” Shen Ni replied matter-of-factly, then saw the scroll in Yongheng’s hand and the splash of blood.

"Oh, is it you who wants to see me?"

"Yes."

As soon as he finished speaking, the Blood Demon God stepped out of the painting.
