Primordial Era: Reborn as Taiyi, I Don't Need Brothers

Chapter 76: Even after becoming a saint, I still have to work to pay off my debts?

The idea of ​​first accumulating merit and then repaying the debt after becoming a saint shocked Styx immensely.

I've become a saint? And I still have to pay off debts? What's the point of my sainthood then? Wasn't the purpose of becoming a saint to roam freely throughout the world?

If becoming a saint is to pay off debts, then what's the point of me becoming a saint?

"I wonder if the Divine Ancestor has any other way to become a saint?" Styx asked after a slight hesitation. If he had a choice, he wouldn't want to choose this path. After all, becoming a saint would still require working, and he was unwilling to accept that from the bottom of his heart.

"There are methods, of course, but there are at most two that are suitable for you, fellow Daoist." Taiyi did not hold back. Styx was also one of his clients, and closing this deal would bring him great benefits.

"Please enlighten me, Divine Ancestor!" Upon hearing that there were still two paths, Styx asked with great joy.

"First, it's actually quite similar to the process of becoming a saint through a loan. If you don't want to take out a loan, you can consider selling things to earn merit! My Heavenly Court accepts everything—spiritual treasures, spiritual roots, pills, cultivation techniques, even cave dwellings or grotto heavens," Taiyi said, patiently persuading Styx.

Upon hearing this, Styx was somewhat stunned. Although he was a primordial being, he only possessed two magical treasures: the Yuan Tu Sword and the A Bi Sword, two killing swords, both top-grade primordial spiritual treasures!

"God Ancestor, look at these two swords of mine, are they enough?" Styx summoned two killing swords and asked.

Taiyi shook his head. "These two swords are good, but if two swords could buy the chance to become a saint, I think Tongtian is more qualified than you!"

"Please enlighten us, Ancestor, what else does the Styx possess that can be exchanged for sufficient merit? The Styx will answer without hesitation!" The Styx Ancestor looked at Taiyi and said earnestly.

"Fellow Daoist, is there another excellent place for cultivation, such as the Blood Sea?" Taiyi asked, looking at the Styx River.

Styx Ancestor was taken aback!

His expression immediately turned somewhat grim!

The Netherworld Blood Sea is his greatest trump card! As long as the Blood Sea doesn't dry up, the Styx River will never die! As long as the Blood Sea exists, the Styx Ancestor can be reborn infinitely.

This is Styx Ancestor's immortality in a different sense!

Now Taiyi was asking him to exchange the Blood Sea for the merit of becoming a saint! Styx hesitated. If he made the exchange and failed to become a saint, wouldn't he be a fool?

"My Heavenly Court guarantees you sainthood! If the merit you gain doesn't lead to sainthood, my Heavenly Court will return all ownership of your Blood Sea!" Taiyi saw through Styx's hesitation at a glance! This guy was clearly afraid of losing everything.

Therefore, a commitment was promptly made!

Give me the sea of ​​blood, and I guarantee you sainthood. Buy now, discuss later, cash on delivery. Understand?

Even so, Styx still hesitated!

The reason is simple: the Blood Sea is far too important to him.

"I wonder how much blood the Heavenly Court wants to give me enough merit?" Styx Ancestor asked Taiyi in a low voice.

"You have too much merit, and the Blood Sea is too small. I'm afraid you'll have to hand over all control of the Blood Sea before my Heavenly Court can give you enough merit!" Taiyi said with a smile. Giving half and keeping half was completely out of the question.

"I want them all!" Taiichi gave a utterly devastating smile.

Styx fell silent again. After a long silence, he spoke again, "I wonder what the other path the Ancestor of Gods spoke of is? I want to hear it before making a decision!"

Taiyi laughed. This Blood Sea is Styx's forbidden possession; as expected, he won't bring it out until the very end.

Even Styx might not be certain under what circumstances he would abandon the Sea of ​​Blood.

"The last method is actually quite simple. If you don't want to borrow, then you can only earn it yourself. My Heavenly Court is planning to launch a new business called the Karma Ranking. It will rank the top 10,000 beings in the primordial world who have the heaviest karma. Fellow Daoist should know the principle that cutting karma is not killing people, and killing is for the purpose of protecting life, right?" Taiyi looked at the Styx River and asked with a smile.

"I understand this matter perfectly well!" A glint appeared in Styx's eyes. He was born from a sea of ​​blood and wielded a killing sword. He was a veteran master of the path of slaughter!

However, although the River Styx kills, its own karma is not heavy! This is because the Sea of ​​Blood is the garbage disposal center of the primordial world, and those who come here are all evil cultivators who come to collect souls.

The Styx Ancestor attained enlightenment through killing, and this path perfectly aligned with his cultivation.

"I wonder when the Heavenly Court will release this list. I'm really looking forward to it!" Styx said with a smile.

"It'll be soon, it'll be soon, fellow Daoist, don't worry. The list will be released in ten years at most, and then this sect will be updated once every hundred years. Of course, there will also be a points list. Points can be exchanged for merit, spiritual treasures, spiritual roots, and so on. When the points reach a certain level, it is even allowed to exchange for Primordial Dao Fruits!" Taiyi said to Styx.

"The Primordial Dao Fruit?" Styx exclaimed in surprise!

However, Taiyi was unwilling to explain further to Styx. In fact, the so-called Karma Ranking and Points Ranking were prepared by Taiyi for the Heavenly Punishment Dao Fruit.

The Heavenly Court has no suitable successor to the Dao Fruit. Directly bestowing the Dao Fruit might not be so harmonious!

Taiyi decided to temporarily refrain from searching for a successor!

Let's just create a karma ranking list! The so-called karma ranking list is the list of those who should be punished by the primordial heavenly retribution.

This business helps the Heavenly Court deal with the corresponding evildoers, and at the same time selects hosts for the Heavenly Punishment Dao Fruit General!

Once enough karmic impurities have been cleared away, one will be qualified to exchange for the Primordial Dao Fruit. Of course, this qualification ultimately depends on Taiyi's assessment of him.

The Styx is gone!

They arrived in a panic, but left with anticipation on their faces!

He's very interested in the upcoming karma ranking! I just wonder if he'll still be able to laugh when he sees the top few on the karma ranking.

Because at the very top of the karma list are the Twelve Ancestral Witches!

The Wu tribe slaughtered countless creatures in the primordial world during the process of unification, and their heavy karma is foreseeable.

Not only the Ancestral Witches, but almost all the Great Witches were on the list!

The appearance of this list almost certainly triggers a hunt for the Wu Clan throughout the entire prehistoric world! After all, these are all acts of merit and spiritual treasures!

This can be seen as Taiyi's revenge against the Wu Clan.

As soon as Styx left, Tongtian, Jieyin, and Zhunti arrived at the gates of Heaven!

Taiyi naturally couldn't show favoritism!

Since the three of you are already here, let's all come in together!

The meeting of the three was naturally somewhat awkward!

But when it comes to embarrassment, Tongtian has to be the one!

After all, who are Jieyin and Zhunti? Auditors at the school, menial disciples under the teacher's tutelage, and who are the Three Pure Ones? They are the most beloved little disciples!

The three of them ended up together seeking guidance from the Heavenly Court on how to achieve sainthood. Who do you think is the most pathetic in this situation?

You're obviously a top student! After all, no matter how good your school is, you're now enrolled in the same classes as me, so what are you so arrogant about?

Tongtian walked into the Heavenly Court with a gloomy expression.

His eldest and second eldest brothers also plunged into the chaos in a flurry of activity!

But they discovered that Zixiao Palace was no longer just for them!
