Transmigrating to a chat group: After heeding advice, I became the ruler of the primordial world.

Chapter 221 Winning over Zhenyuan Daxian! Persuading the Styx Ancestor!

Inside the Zixiao Palace, Hongjun's gaze remained fixed on Xi Kunlun.

Ever since Lu Yun and the Queen Mother of the West disappeared from sight, he had been feeling very anxious. He wanted to know the truth about Lu Yun's world, but he was also worried that new changes might occur on Lu Yun's side.

However, at this point, he could only be patient and wait quietly.

Just then, a thought suddenly struck him, and he realized that the human mountain in Shouyang City had finally completed its Golden Immortal Tribulation and reached the Golden Immortal level.

Hongjun quickly turned his gaze to the mountain, hoping that he could ascend the Rainbow Bridge of Refining the Heart and enter that mysterious world.

After successfully overcoming the tribulation, Da Shan was filled with joy.

He immediately felt the improvement in his strength and was filled with goodwill towards the spiritual treasure he had obtained during his tribulation. At the same time, he also realized the great benefits that the long-eared beast meat that Lu Yun had distributed earlier had brought him.

At this moment, he felt grateful to Lu Yun and was also looking forward to Lu Yun's upcoming war with the demon race.

In his view, as long as he followed Lu Yun, he would have the opportunity to become stronger, and even the opportunity to become a true top expert in the prehistoric world!

Now that he has reached the Golden Immortal level, he naturally has the qualifications to ascend the Rainbow Bridge of Refining the Heart.

So, without hesitation, Da Shan walked toward the Rainbow Bridge of Refining the Heart.

Hongjun, in Zixiao Palace, breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Dashan had finally begun to move.

He paid close attention to Dashan's every move, afraid of missing any detail.

Finally, Da Shan arrived at the Rainbow Bridge of Refining the Heart, took a deep breath, and then stepped onto the bridge.

Given Da Shan's loyalty to the human race, there was naturally no problem. He quickly crossed the Refining Heart Rainbow Bridge and stepped into the Mountain and River Map.

Subsequently, under Hongjun's close watch, Dashan successfully entered that mysterious world.

That's it!

A smile involuntarily appeared on Hongjun's face.

If all goes well, all we need to do next is wait for Dashan to come out of that world. He will bring the spiritual treasure he brought with him, and then he can bring Hongjun information about that world!

Hongjun was waiting to understand that world and then analyze how to deal with it.

But just then, Lu Yun and the Queen Mother of the West suddenly returned to Xikunlun together, and Hongjun quickly began to observe them.

He saw that after returning to her Yaochi Palace, the Queen Mother of the West seemed to be in a dazed state.

Nuwa then cast a probing glance at Lu Yun.

Lu Yun simply smiled slightly at Nuwa, and Nuwa immediately understood and smiled back.

Seeing this scene from afar, Hongjun's heart sank: it seems that the Queen Mother of the West has truly been won over by Lu Yun.

He was very curious about what method Lu Yun had used to persuade the Queen Mother of the West so quickly.

Unfortunately, neither Lu Yun nor the Queen Mother of the West mentioned this matter.

"Well then, Fellow Daoist Queen Mother of the West, we'll take our leave now."

Lu Yun soon bid farewell to the Queen Mother of the West with Nuwa, preparing to leave Xikunlun.

The Queen Mother of the West personally escorted them a long way before watching them leave, and then turned back to the Jade Pool Palace.

……

On Kunlun Mountain.

The Three Pure Ones have also been paying close attention to the Jade Pool Palace.

At this moment, seeing Nuwa and Lu Yun descend Kunlun Mountain together, they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

They could also see that Lu Yun seemed to have persuaded the Queen Mother of the West to join them.

They looked at each other, both feeling somewhat surprised.

Given the Queen Mother of the West's personality and previous attitude, she shouldn't have agreed to join the human race.

Yuan Shi frowned and asked, "How exactly did Lu Yun do that?"

Laozi, however, did not take it seriously, saying, "There's no need to worry. Even with the Queen Mother of the West joining the race, the human race is still far weaker than the demon race. It won't have much of an impact."

Yuanshi agreed with this point.

But just then, Tongtian suddenly said, "One Queen Mother of the West might not be enough, but what if we add Zhen Yuanzi as well?"

Laozi and Yuanshi were both taken aback, and then quickly looked towards Lu Yun and Nuwa, only to find that after leaving Xikunlun, Lu Yun and Nuwa were indeed heading towards the Wuzhuang Temple on Wanshou Mountain.

Judging from this, it's clear they're trying to win over Zhen Yuanzi!

Laozi and Yuanshi's expressions instantly turned serious.

Zhen Yuanzi is an extremely powerful quasi-saint in the primordial world, possessing the Earth Book, a top-grade innate spiritual treasure, and the Ginseng Fruit Tree, a spiritual root of heaven and earth. If he were to join the human race, the human race's strength would greatly increase, and it might even directly threaten the demon race.

They couldn't help but start to worry. If Zhen Yuanzi was really persuaded by Lu Yun, the war between the demon race and the human race would probably become more complicated and unpredictable.

Laozi couldn't help but look at Yuanshi and said, "Second brother, you and Zhen Yuanzi have always had a good relationship. Why don't you communicate with him beforehand and tell him not to join the human race?"

Yuan Shi pondered for a moment, then couldn't help but smile wryly, saying, "Brother, I'm afraid this won't work! You know how close Hong Yun and Zhen Yuanzi were back then! Hong Yun was forced to self-destruct by the demon race, which made Zhen Yuanzi hate the demon race from then on. Now that he has such an opportunity for revenge, he certainly won't miss it!"

Lao Tzu fell silent.

He sighed softly and said, "In that case, let's wait and see!"

……

Meanwhile, Lu Yun and Nuwa had already arrived outside Wuzhuang Temple.

Wuzhuang Temple stands atop Longevity Hill, surrounded by swirling clouds and mist, resembling a fairyland. Inside, ancient trees reach for the sky, and the halls are majestic, exuding an ancient and solemn atmosphere.

As Lu Yun and his companions gazed upon the ancient and solemn Taoist temple before them, their hearts were filled with anticipation.

The two then entered the Wuzhuang Temple together. The temple's layout was meticulous, with winding paths that exuded a mysterious and solemn atmosphere. The unique architectural style of Wuzhuang Temple blended the harmonious beauty of Taoism and nature, inspiring awe in all who beheld it.

Inside the Wuzhuang Temple, Zhen Yuanzi was in seclusion cultivating. Sensing the arrival of Lu Yun and Nuwa, he slowly opened his eyes.

When he saw Lu Yun and Nuwa, a ripple of emotion stirred within him.

Inevitably, like the Queen Mother of the West, he also suspected that Lu Yun had brought Nuwa to reclaim the Primordial Purple Qi. But upon further reflection, it didn't seem quite right.

After much deliberation, he finally left his secluded retreat.

"Greetings, Fellow Daoist Zhenyuan!"

"Greetings, Sage Nuwa, Fellow Daoist Lu Yun!"

Lu Yun and Nuwa entered Wuzhuang Temple, where Zhen Yuanzi personally greeted them. The three took their seats as host and guest. Zhen Yuanzi looked at Lu Yun and Nuwa, feeling a little curious. What could these two top experts from the prehistoric world possibly want from him?

Nuwa spoke first, smiling as she said, "Fellow Daoist Zhen Yuanzi, we have come here today with a request."

Zhen Yuanzi was slightly taken aback, then asked, "Oh? What could possibly warrant the presence of the Sage Nuwa in person?"

Lu Yun took over the conversation and solemnly said, "Fellow Daoist Zhen Yuanzi, our human race is about to go to war with the demon race, and we hope to have your support."

Upon hearing this, Zhen Yuanzi frowned slightly, but did not immediately express his opinion.

Lu Yun added, "Fellow Daoist Zhen Yuanzi, you and Fellow Daoist Hongyun have a deep friendship. Fellow Daoist Hongyun perished because of the demon race. Don't you feel even a trace of hatred in your heart? Now that you have the opportunity to avenge Fellow Daoist Hongyun, are you going to miss it? This is the best opportunity!"

Upon hearing this, Zhen Yuanzi's heart was filled with turbulent emotions.

The fall of Hongyun has always been a pain in his heart.

And now, just as Lu Yun said, this is indeed the best opportunity. If they miss it, dealing with the demon race in the future will likely become much more difficult.

He took a deep breath, a resolute glint in his eyes, and slowly said, "Very well, then Zhen Yuanzi will agree to join the human race and fight against the demon race together!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Yun was overjoyed and quickly thanked Zhen Yuanzi: "Thank you, Great Immortal Zhen Yuan! With a great immortal joining our human race, we are sure to achieve victory."

Zhen Yuanzi waved his hand and said, "No need for thanks. Eliminating the demon race is what this humble Taoist should do."

Afterwards, Lu Yun and Nuwa had a brief chat with Zhen Yuanzi before leaving Wuzhuang Temple to prepare for their next destination.

……

After leaving Wuzhuang Temple, Lu Yun and Nuwa continued on their way to their next destination—the Netherworld Blood Sea!

They were preparing to go and find the Styx Ancestor.

On her way to the Netherworld Blood Sea, Nuwa discussed the Styx Ancestor with Lu Yun.

She frowned slightly and said, "Ancestor Styx is a reclusive and eccentric person. Winning him over will not be an easy task."

Lu Yun smiled slightly, his eyes gleaming with confidence, and said, "Don't worry, Goddess Nuwa, I have my own way."

Seeing Lu Yun's confidence, Nuwa, though still harboring doubts, said nothing more, only indicating that she would wait and see.

The two flew for a long time and finally arrived above the Netherworld Blood Sea. The blood sea was churning, with towering waves of blood, exuding a dense aura of malevolence that sent chills down their spines.

Nuwa also frowned slightly, clearly not liking the environment here.

As soon as Lu Yun and Nuwa approached, a group of Asura cultivators rushed out of the sea of ​​blood and blocked their path. These Asura cultivators were armed with sharp blades and were clearly wary of Lu Yun and Nuwa.

The Asura race was created by the Styx River in imitation of Nuwa's creation of humans. This race is very unique; the men are ugly, while the women are incredibly beautiful.

Even the most beautiful woman in the Asura race paled in comparison to Nuwa. As for the Asura men, they naturally felt even more inferior in front of Lu Yun.

If they hadn't been unable to see through Lu Yun and Nuwa, they almost would have taken action.

Nuwa remained calm and indifferent, completely disregarding the Asura race.

Upon seeing this, Lu Yun smiled slightly, stepped forward, cupped his hands, and said, "Lu Yun of the human race has come to pay a visit to Ancestor Styx. Please inform him of my arrival."

Upon hearing this, the Asura cultivators exchanged glances, all somewhat surprised and uncertain.

Clearly, even though they were in the Netherworld Blood Sea, they had all heard of Lu Yun's name, so they dared not be negligent at all.

One of them said, "Please wait a moment, I will go and report to the Ancestor."

After saying this, the Asura cultivator turned and left, and soon met the Styx Ancestor.

The Styx Ancestor, who was in seclusion, was quite surprised to learn of Lu Yun's visit.

"Why did Lu Yun suddenly come to the Netherworld Blood Sea?"

He was naturally suspicious by nature, so he immediately thought that Lu Yun might be trying to take back the Primordial Purple Qi.

So, he waved for the Asura cultivators to leave, but instead of immediately going out to greet Lu Yun, he took out a magic mirror and examined the situation outside.

Upon seeing this, the Styx Ancestor's expression changed.

Because he then learned that the Asura clan member had reported that Lu Yun had brought a female cultivator with him, and that female cultivator was actually the saint Nuwa!

"A bunch of blind fools!"

The Styx Ancestor cursed inwardly, but at the same time, he didn't have time to think too much and quickly showed himself to welcome Lu Yun and Nuwa.

The Styx Ancestor was dressed in a black robe, his face was cold and stern, and his eyes gleamed with a deep light.

He approached Lu Yun and Nuwa, forcing a smile, and said, "Empress Nuwa, Fellow Daoist Lu Yun, it is an honor to have you here. I, Styx, have not been so welcoming. Please forgive me!"

The Asura cultivators around them were shocked to realize that the person next to Lu Yun was actually Nuwa.

Only then did they realize that they had almost lost their lives!

Nuwa smiled faintly upon seeing this and said nothing more. Lu Yun returned the greeting with a cupped hand and said, "Fellow Daoist Styx, you are too kind. We apologize for our intrusion in visiting you."

Ancestor Styx quickly waved his hand, saying, "Not at all, not at all. It is an honor for Styx that you two could come to the Netherworld Blood Sea. Please come in!"

With that, he led Lu Yun and Nuwa into a palace deep within the Netherworld Blood Sea. The palace was gloomy, but it was decorated very elegantly, clearly showing that the Styx Ancestor was also a person who knew how to enjoy life.

After the three were seated as host and guest, the Styx Ancestor eagerly asked, "May I ask what brings Goddess Nuwa and Fellow Daoist Lu Yun here today?"

Nuwa smiled slightly and said, "Styx, we have come here today to ask you for a favor."

Upon hearing this, the Styx Ancestor's heart tightened, and he thought to himself, "They really have come."

But he remained outwardly calm and said, "Oh? What could possibly make the Goddess Nuwa come to me personally to ask for your help?"

Lu Yun took over the conversation and solemnly said, "Fellow Daoist Styx, our human race is about to go to war with the demon race, and we hope to have your support."

Upon hearing this, the Styx Ancestor frowned slightly. He had long heard of the grudges between the human and demon races, but he always kept to himself and was unwilling to get involved in these conflicts.

He pondered for a moment and said, "Fellow Daoist Lu Yun, you should know my personality and style of doing things. I have never liked to get involved in the conflicts of the prehistoric world."

Lu Yun nodded and said, "I understand, but this battle concerns the future of the prehistoric world and the very survival of the human race. If Fellow Daoist Styx could join us, it would be of great help to the human race."

Now, the Styx Ancestor was in a bit of a dilemma.

He asked cautiously, "I wonder... what bad consequences would there be if Styx refused now?"

Lu Yun and Nuwa were both slightly taken aback, not expecting the Styx River to ask such a direct question.

Lu Yun chuckled and said, "If Fellow Daoist Styx truly doesn't want to participate, we naturally won't force you."

Ancestor Styx was overjoyed and was about to refuse again.

Unexpectedly, Lu Yun suddenly added, "However, Fellow Daoist Styx may be about to miss out on a tremendous opportunity because of this!"
