Honghuang: Creation of the Green Lotus, the beginning of the Three Pure Ones

Looking at the Immortal Slaughtering Formation before him, the Styx Ancestor was eventually dragged into it. However, he also did not return to the Netherworld Blood Sea.

"Taoist Duobao, you escaped this calamity today thanks to the Immortal Slaughtering Formation. I hope you will have the same luck next time, otherwise I will definitely avenge Mara."

After speaking, he transformed into a cloud of blood mist and headed directly towards Xiqi City. This marked a perfect end to the grand drama.

Indeed, the Styx Ancestor and Duobao Daoist were putting on an act. And the audience, of course, were the Six Sages of Heaven and Hongjun.

Back in the Netherworld Blood Sea, the Styx Ancestor became Chen Xuan's disciple, but no one knew this. Furthermore, the Styx Ancestor and Chen Xuan staged a ruse, even deceiving Hongjun.

Therefore, apart from Chen Xuan, only the Six Sages of Qinglian Island knew that the Styx Ancestor was a disciple of Qinglian Island.

As for Daoist Duobao, he was also acting on Tongtian's orders to cooperate with Ancestor Styx in this grand performance. Only then did he realize that Ancestor Styx was actually his martial uncle.

In order to deceive everyone in this grand scheme, the Styx Ancestor even sacrificed his own demon king, Mara.

Of course, the Styx Ancestor wouldn't sacrifice his subordinates for no reason. To put it bluntly, it was simply killing two birds with one stone, using the opportunity to eliminate the scum within the Asura race.

Western religions have eight classes of beings, one of which is the Asura. The Asuras, one of the eight classes, are descended from the Asura race.

Why would the Asura race, who were perfectly capable, choose to submit to the Western Paradise? The reason is that Mara and the Ghost Mother who died in Xiqi City were secretly plotting against them.

They constantly tempted the Asura race to join the Western Religion and become Asuras among the Eight Legions.

The Styx Ancestor was already aware of this, and even once wanted to annihilate the Ghost Mother and Mara. However, Houtu stopped him.

He also told Styx Ancestor that they could use the Demon King Bo Xun and his companion to send people to the Western Sect as inside agents.

The Styx Ancestor accepted Houtu's suggestion, and now it just so happens that a grand show needs to be staged, so the Ghost Mother and Mara are naturally being used.

However, neither the Demon Mother nor Mara knew why they died. They probably still thought that what they had done was flawless.

At this moment, both Hongjun and the Six Sages of Heavenly Dao witnessed this scene outside Lintong Pass.

Hongjun then said, "I never expected that this Daoist Duobao could actually fight Styx to a draw. Now, he has even forced Styx to retreat with the Immortal Slaughtering Formation."

"With the Daoist disciples' cultivation reaching such a level, I'm afraid the disciples of the three Xuanmen sects will be unable to cope. If all the Daoist disciples were to arrive in Xiqi, I'm afraid the Xuanmen disciples would be on the Investiture of the Gods list."

"No, we must quickly send someone to Xiqi from the Beast Emperor Shenni. Otherwise, by the time he finishes his business, humanity will have already fully awakened."

Throughout the entire ordeal, Hongjun never suspected that Styx and Daoist Duobao were putting on an act. The reason was that Daoist Duobao truly possessed the strength to fight Styx.

Furthermore, the two of them acted so convincingly that they even managed to involve the demon king Mara. Naturally, they successfully fooled everyone.

Therefore, Hongjun not only did not doubt the Styx Ancestor, but also headed directly into the depths of chaos to find the Beast Emperor Shenni and ask for some of his subordinates to help him.

At the same time, Yin Jiao had already been brought to Chaoge City by Yu Ding Zhenren.

Only after entering Chaoge City did Master Yuding finally feel relieved. After all, he had no idea that Ancestor Styx was his uncle.

As Yin Jiao entered Chaoge City, the Black Bird totem in the city appeared out of thin air, emitting loud bird calls. Immediately afterwards, the fortunes of the Great Shang Dynasty began to rise, and the final surge of fortune fell upon Yin Jiao.

As the power of destiny descended, Yin Jiao's injuries were completely healed at that moment. Even his cultivation level was completely stabilized at that instant.

Originally, Yin Jiao's cultivation level was forcibly raised to the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm by Guang Chengzi. To put it bluntly, he had the realm but no foundation, since Guang Chengzi had no intention of letting Yin Jiao inherit the Dao lineage, but rather intended for him to die.

Now, with the blessing of the human race's fortune, Yin Jiao's originally unstable Great Luo Golden Immortal cultivation has been completely stabilized at this moment, making him a true Great Luo Golden Immortal.

As the fortunes of the Shang Dynasty rose, the Black Bird totem cried out, naturally alarming Emperor Xin in the royal palace. He immediately dispatched people to investigate what had happened.

Soon, Di Xin learned that his eldest son had been rescued. An undisguised smile instantly spread across his face.

Thinking back to those days, he had escorted Yin Jiao and Yin Hong to the execution ground so that Guang Chengzi and Chi Jingzi could take his two sons away smoothly.

Their purpose was twofold: first, to have them raise their own sons; and second, to seduce the innate spiritual treasures held by Guang Chengzi and Chi Jingzi.

Now that Yin Jiao had finally returned, Emperor Xin naturally shed tears. He personally greeted him outside the palace and embraced Yin Jiao tightly in his arms.

The moment Yin Jiao saw Di Xin, all his long-buried memories returned instantly. He immediately spoke to Di Xin.

“Father, I have fulfilled my mission. I have brought back all the magical treasures from Guang Chengzi’s cave. Moreover, I have cultivated my cultivation to the level of a Great Luo Golden Immortal.”

Upon hearing this, Di Xin smiled with satisfaction. Then, he took Yin Jiao's hand and walked towards the palace.

On the way, he didn't forget to ask Yin Jiao if there was any news about Yin Hong. This made Yin Jiao feel a little helpless, because although the two brothers were both disciples of the Chan Sect, they had never met since they went up the mountain.

The only time Yin Jiao received news of Yin Hong was when he encountered the imposter on the battlefield. However, Yin Jiao was certain of one thing: Yin Hong was still alive and well.

So naturally, he comforted Di Xin, telling him not to worry about Yin Hong. He said that Yin Hong would return soon, just like himself.

Although Di Xin knew that Yin Jiao was trying to comfort him, he still smiled and nodded. Then he ordered a banquet to be prepared in the Longde Hall to welcome his son back.

He also expressed his gratitude to Yu Ding and other Taoist disciples, personally pouring wine for everyone at the banquet.

Meanwhile, in Xiqi City, Jiang Ziya was discussing military affairs with Ji Fa when he suddenly saw a drastic change in the celestial phenomena. He hurriedly made calculations and his face turned pale: "Oh no, Yin Jiao has returned to Chaoge."

He then went directly to the Taoist Ran Deng and told him about Yin Jiao's return to Chaoge.

The Taoist Ran Deng showed no surprise at this, and instead said to Jiang Ziya, "Ziya, this is the Lord of the Netherworld Blood Sea, the Master of the Asura Sect, Ancestor Styx."

Jiang Ziya hadn't expected that the person beside Daoist Ran Deng was actually the renowned Styx Ancestor. He hurriedly stepped forward to pay his respects, saying, "Jiang Ziya greets Styx Ancestor."

With a wave of his hand, the Old Ancestor of the Styx helped Jiang Ziya up and said to him, "If it weren't for Daoist Duobao's intervention, Yin Jiao would have already died at Lintong Pass."

"Now, not only has Yin Jiao returned to Chaoge City, but Bo Xun has also become a famous figure on the Investiture of the Gods." (End of this chapter)
