Primordial Era: Starting with Self-Created Mythical Great Luo Law
Chapter 104 Imprinted Deep Within the Soul
"I see this as a pretext to carry out your invasion. Your witch clan has indeed set its sights on my Blood Sea!"
"Very well! The Dao Ancestor Hongjun forbade you from fighting the demon race again, so you turned your attention to me?"
"Hmph! Don't think that just because your witch clan is powerful and dominates the prehistoric world, no one will dare to say a word against you."
"To tell you the truth, others fear your Witch Clan, but I, the Ancestor of the Styx, fear none!"
"This sea of blood is the source of my origin, the foundation of my Daoist practice, and I never lend it out. Today's plan will not succeed. As for the land of reincarnation—it is absolutely impossible to build it."
Houtu frowned slightly upon hearing his words.
She was well aware of the Styx Ancestor's strength and understood that it would be unwise to antagonize him at this time.
The current enemy of the Wu tribe is the demon tribe. If they were to seek strong allies, they would undoubtedly be trapping themselves in a predicament.
Moreover, Styx is not only a powerful being, but also has the Asura clan as his backing, making his combat strength not to be underestimated.
If a real conflict breaks out and the other side sides with the demon race, the witch race's situation will become even worse.
However, the Styx Ancestor ignored him, his eyes surging with fighting spirit, and he spoke coldly, his voice as cold as ice and iron.
"Houtu, you can still leave now. If you retreat now, I will pretend that what just happened never occurred; but if you insist on occupying my Blood Sea territory and refuse to leave, then don't blame me for being merciless."
As soon as he finished speaking, the Styx Ancestor immediately manifested the spiritual treasure he possessed.
He held a sharp longsword in each hand, its cold light gleaming, and his killing intent emanated like wisps of silk.
A crimson lotus platform appeared beneath his feet, while a small banner floated above his head.
Those two swords are named Yuan Tu and A Bi, which are top-grade innate spiritual treasures and supreme sacred weapons of the way of killing. They can kill enemies without leaving any karma, and their power can reach the heavens and the earth.
The lotus platform beneath his feet is called the Twelve-Petaled Karmic Fire Red Lotus, one of the four great innate lotus platforms. It is a top-grade innate spiritual treasure, capable of releasing red lotus karmic fire to burn the enemy's soul and also refining one's own karmic obstacles.
The small flag atop its head is the Northern Xuan Yuan Water Control Flag, one of the Five Flags of Heaven and Earth. It is also among the top-grade innate spiritual treasures, holding the power over all waters under heaven and controlling floods invisibly.
Such a collection of treasures in one person is enough to make millions of cultivators envious and covetous.
However, Chen Yu remained calm and composed despite witnessing this scene.
In his eyes, spiritual treasures were nothing more than external possessions; whether he had them or not, they were not worth his attention.
When Houtu saw that the Styx Ancestor had revealed all his abilities, her brows furrowed even more deeply.
After a moment of contemplation, he finally sighed softly and turned to look at Chen Yu beside him.
"Fellow Daoist Chen Yu, I humbly request your assistance; the place of reincarnation must be opened."
"This is the destiny I bear—when the Father God Pangu created the primordial world, he did not establish the cycle of reincarnation. As his bloodline descendant, I should make up for this deficiency."
"If all living beings in the primordial world have no place to reincarnate, their true spirits will have nothing to rely on and will only drift between heaven and earth until they eventually disintegrate and perish."
"I hope Fellow Daoist Chen Yu will grant my request and help me establish the foundation for reincarnation today."
Upon hearing this, the Styx Ancestor turned his gaze to Chen Yu, his heart filled with doubt. The truth of this matter was hard to discern, and the Blood Sea was its very foundation, allowing no room for error.
However, if Chen Yu were to give his verdict, he would not dare to disbelieve it.
After all, this person's strength is unfathomable and his status is extremely esteemed. He is an existence that can stand on equal footing with Hongjun Daozu. How could he lie to deceive him?
Moreover, if Chen Yu really decides to help Houtu, how will he resist?
Let alone resist, they would probably be completely suppressed in a single move.
As for the Blood Sea itself, it will also be completely destroyed at that time—even if the Blood God Child can be reborn by borrowing a body, if the foundation is destroyed, how can it return to the human world?
After listening to Houtu's words, Chen Yu pondered for a moment and then nodded slightly.
He looked at the Styx Ancestor, his tone calm as water, yet every word was as firm as iron.
"Nether River, the opening of reincarnation is ordained by the Heavenly Dao, and you cannot defy it. If you are worried about the Witch Clan seizing the land, you can rest assured."
"I hereby promise: the Witch Clan will never lay a finger on your Blood Sea territory."
"If any member of the Witch Clan dares to invade, I will personally protect your Blood Sea."
"As for your concern that the Asura clan will have no successors... there is no need to worry about it."
"After the cycle of reincarnation is opened, a special passage will be set up for the Asura race to reincarnate, so that their lineage can continue uninterrupted."
After speaking, Chen Yu glanced at them indifferently.
When the Styx Ancestor met that gaze, his heart tightened immediately, and he dared not be reckless any longer. He quickly retrieved all his spiritual treasures.
If they don't recognize the opportune moment in this situation, they might not even have a chance to resist when Chen Yu takes action personally.
After putting away all the magical treasures, he looked at Houtu Ancestral Witch, his voice low and slow, with a hint of helplessness.
"Houtu, since Senior Chen Yu has made it so clear, I dare not obstruct you any further. You may open up the land of reincarnation as you see fit."
These words, spoken with utter helplessness, reveal a powerlessness. Outmatched in strength and with no hope of struggle, the only recourse is to bow down and submit.
After hearing what the Styx Ancestor said, Houtu Ancestral Witch raised the corners of her lips slightly, revealing a faint smile.
She slowly turned around, looked at Chen Yu, and her eyes revealed sincere gratitude.
"Fellow Daoist Chen Yu, Houtu will forever remember your kindness. Without your support, I don't know when the path of reincarnation would have been opened."
Upon hearing this, Chen Yu simply chuckled and shook his head, indicating that there was no need to worry about it.
Since we first met Houtu, we have walked hand in hand for a thousand years. It is only natural that we should help her again. There is no need to express our gratitude.
The mirage dragon stood to one side, silently watching the scene before it. The Styx Ancestor, who had been so domineering and arrogant just moments before, was now bowing his head and submitting after just a few words from his master. The dragon couldn't help but find it amusing.
But he ultimately dared not be presumptuous—the Styx River was a great supernatural being, and even though he was a Taiyi Golden Immortal, he dared not be disrespectful in front of him. He could only suppress his laughter and hold his breath.
A moment later, Houtu Ancestral Witch rose up and hovered in the void, her gaze sweeping over Chen Yu, Shenlong and Styx Ancestor, her voice clear and solemn.
"Fellow Daoist Chen Yu, Fellow Daoist Styx, I will immediately open up the place of reincarnation, create an opportunity for all living beings in the primordial world to be reborn, and protect all living beings from extinction."
After speaking, she looked up at the sky with a solemn expression and began her prayer with reverence.
"The Great Dao is above, and I am the descendant of Pangu and Houtu. I now observe that there is no cycle of reincarnation in the universe, and that the souls of all living beings have nowhere to go after they perish. I am willing to offer myself as a sacrifice, to become the foundation of the six realms of reincarnation, to protect all spirits, and to ensure that they are born and reincarnated without end."
As soon as the words fell, all was silent above the sea of blood, as if even the wind had stopped flowing. Hundreds of millions of living beings held their breath, waiting for the Great Dao to respond.
Soon, a pair of giant eyes appeared across the primordial sky, gazing at the sea of blood with cold indifference and without a trace of emotion.
Wherever that gaze fell, whether mortal beings or high-ranking saints, a chill rose from their spines, their hearts trembled, as if they were standing on the edge of an abyss.
As Chen Yu gazed into those eyes, he understood—this was the response from the Great Dao in response to Houtu's oath.
Those eyes stared indifferently at Houtu for a long time, and finally a deep voice resounded throughout the heavens and earth, containing only one word: "Approved."
The single word resonated throughout the eight directions, reaching the ears of every living being and being imprinted deep within their souls.
