People in Jiejiao, Plague God Lu Yue

Chapter 872 Becoming Brothers Within the Banner of Ten Thousand Souls

Stubborn!

Lu Yue looked at the Styx River as if he were looking at a demon god about to fall, feeling somewhat aggrieved. His foul mouth offended almost everyone present.

It's his fault!

It wasn't his fault!

Within the sea of ​​blood, countless powerful beings of the Primordial Golden Immortal realm whispered among themselves. Each of them had their own dark side, and their combined overwhelming will was something even he had to consider.

This is why Lü Yue's perception of the River Styx was so complex.

He was like a mentally ill person who could go insane at any moment, with multiple personalities within him—not just ten, but hundreds, thousands, even tens of thousands—and he had no ability to completely suppress them.

While those gods and demons were enhancing his strength, weren't they also eroding his primordial spirit and will? Although the old Taoist Hongjun was interested in the fact that his blood sea contained ten thousand Hunyuan Golden Immortals.

But it only remained at the level of being interested.

Make him do that?
He wouldn't believe it; how could the Dao Ancestor of the Xuanmen not see through it? What he really cared about was why the Styx River hadn't gone mad yet, and why those Primordial Golden Immortals hadn't devoured his primordial spirit.

And this is precisely where Styx's wisdom lies.

"war!"

Lu Yue remained calm and smiled, saying, "This humble Taoist welcomes the Styx Demon Ancestor's probing, but if you wish to escape, I'm afraid the people present will not allow it."

Styx was momentarily short of breath.

Helplessly, he turned his gaze to Hongjun, the old Daoist, and explained, "Since Dao Ancestor wants to know my secrets, I will naturally offer them up with both hands. I only hope that Dao Ancestor can spare my life."

The Styx River is positioned in a low position.

It resembled an old dog beside Hongjun.

"Fellow Daoist Styx, the real root of the problem lies in your Blood Sea Origin. You have designed a cage for yourself, isolating yourself from the intrusion of countless gods and demons."

However, when you absorb the magical power of many Primordial Golden Immortals, you inevitably absorb their dark side as well. Normally, you might not see anything?

"But when your life is threatened, you subconsciously accelerate the absorption of their magical power, eventually causing your behavior to become somewhat erratic. I wonder if what you're saying is correct?"

Styx was stunned, even somewhat frightened. In just a moment, Hongjun deciphered his Blood Sea Secret Technique, and Styx's face turned ashen, a sense of dejection appearing on his face.

"It was my carelessness."

Even if Styx didn't want to admit it, in front of Hongjun and the many powerful beings present, simply denying it would only make them look down on him even more.

"The River of Time, now revealed!"

With a wave of his hand, Styx's God-Slaying Spear tore through space and time. He took a step forward, his figure somewhat desolate, standing on the surging river of time, pointing at Lü Yue.

"war!"

Without hesitation, Lü Yue stepped out and entered the River of Time. His brow furrowed slightly, and the raging River of Time seemed to cleave the heavens and earth in two.

Being in the long river, one's image is projected across the myriad realms of the heavens.

No wonder they say, "To die in the river of time is true death. The river of time will project images onto all the heavens and myriad worlds. Even if they have avatars, they will still be traced back by the river of time."

Until complete extinction.

During the duel between Lü Yue and Styx, the God-Slaying Spear transformed into a series of afterimages, and a banner also appeared in Lü Yue's hand, which he had left to gather dust in a corner after advancing in rank.

After all, once you reach a certain level...

Everything in the universe can be turned into an army.

The ever-flowing river of time, during their battle, sometimes shattered into countless stars, and sometimes coalesced into a spear that pierced through the entire space-time continuum.

The long river of time flowing downstream.

All of Styx's clones were obliterated. Even if Styx wanted to escape, it would be impossible for it to stabilize itself in the endless river.

A flicker of struggle crossed Styx's eyes; he seemed inclined to bow his head and admit his mistake, but in the end, it turned into a silent sigh. Among the many powerful figures present, none would allow him to surrender.

In the end, he chose to put up a stubborn resistance.

He chuckled.

"Lu Yue, I cannot lose. Even if I die, I will drag you down with me." Styx's voice was full of determination and righteous indignation. "What I want is eternal power, to be above all living beings in the primordial world. Even Hongjun and Kunzu will be trampled under my feet. How could I possibly fall here?"

"impossible!"

Blood-red karmic flames instantly erupted from Styx's body, resembling a giant fireball that transformed into a vast galaxy and flew towards Lü Yue.

Lu Yue stood at the end of the river of time, his figure as upright as a pine tree, his eyes cold and stern, a hint of coldness on his lips: it was nothing more than a struggle before death.

"kill!"

He thrust the long banner in his hand straight toward the River Styx.

The banner bore two large, elegant characters: "Ten Thousand Souls!"

Stirring up the sea of ​​blood and burning with karmic fire, what was being burned was merely the myriad souls within the Styx River. At this moment, countless blood skeletons rushed toward the wedding banner in a frenzy.

He kept muttering curses under his breath.

"Styx, you're a bastard."

"Styx, you want to sacrifice all of us in exchange for your chance to escape."

Those demons would rather be brothers within the Banner of Ten Thousand Souls than become fuel for the River Styx to escape.

"you?"

Styx looked dejected as he gazed at the scene before him, finally letting out a helpless, bitter laugh.

"That's all."

As the black light burst forth from the Myriad Souls Banner, it instantly drained the source of the Blood Sea, leaving even Styx kneeling on the ground, barely alive.

Hongjun coldly observed everything before him, somewhat disdainful of Styx's strength; he hadn't even managed to probe Lü Yue's true abilities.

Ten Thousand Soul Banners!
The Blood Sea Avenue perfectly counters the Styx River.

He devours all spirits, but the Myriad Souls Banner is no different. Moreover, the Myriad Souls Banner is crafted using the Dao of Weapons, making it entirely an external object, and it is not afraid of backlash.

It's the Ten Thousand Souls Banner again.

It's alright! We'll be brothers within the Ten Thousand Souls Banner.

"Lu Yue, what other surprises do you have? Can you let this old Daoist see them clearly all at once?" Hongjun pondered for a moment, but in the end, he refrained from making a move.

after all!

At present, he has no fundamental conflict of interest with Lü Yue. As for the Western Lands, that is Luo Hou's stronghold. If it was eventually raided, it was due to his own incompetence.

Lü Yue flashed away.

They did not directly eliminate Styx.

Where are you going?

Styx was somewhat dazed, a line of bloody tears flowing down his face. The accumulation of billions of years had directly made Lü Yue who was known as one of the founders of the demonic path. In his view,

Lü Yue is the true and complete founder of the demonic path.

He is cunning and has countless trump cards up his sleeve.

Moreover, without a word, he absorbed all of his cultivation.

This has led to him now being completely degraded into a useless person.

pity!

Lu Yue was in a hurry to return to the West and had no time to waste with him. Deep in spacetime, he vaguely sensed that a powerful being was preparing to launch a sneak attack from the shadows.

Whether it's Styx's backup plan or some other powerful being trying to take advantage of the situation, it's not something he wants to see.

Ugh!
Deep in time and space.

Kunzu continued to sneer.

"He is indeed a man of the path of expediency." He only slightly leaked his aura, but it was noticed by Lü Yue and he slipped away directly from the river of time.
