Chapter 221 The Underworld!

However, Styx's actions were indeed the envy of many, after all, they were acts of merit.

But they didn't understand why the Asura race was able to gain merit by conforming to the earth's natural order, rather than by creating merit randomly.

The result was obvious: nothing was gained, and even the essence, spirit, and some precious spiritual materials were wasted, all for naught.

They didn't understand why they couldn't even obtain merit, while the Asura race created by the Styx could obtain merit.

Many powerful beings have realized that creating humans to become saints is not feasible. They were blinded by greed before. Nuwa became a saint with the help of primordial purple energy. If just anyone could create a race and become a saint, what would that be like?

However, this resulted in the emergence of many strange and unusual creatures on the prehistoric continent.

This adds another layer of humanity to our lives.

……

At this moment, Styx, the second person to create a race to take the plunge, fell to the edge of the sea of ​​blood.

Houtu, treading on the laws, strolled over from afar, majestic like a vast land, her aura ethereal and indistinct. Ever since Guiyuan guided her, they had been studying the laws of reincarnation together.

When she was trying to comprehend it, it seemed as if it were ordained by heaven. The legendary law of reincarnation, which was extremely difficult to comprehend, became as easy to her as eating and drinking.

The so-called Ancestral Witch's extreme difficulty in comprehending the boundaries of laws outside her own bloodline was not manifested in her, because the Ancestral Witch was unable to comprehend other laws, and was more concerned with the evil energy itself and did not cultivate the primordial spirit.

While they struggled to comprehend the other laws, Houtu's primordial spirit was stronger than that of the other ancestral witches, further enhanced by Guiyuan's guidance.

"The Way of the Earth... the Immortal of the Earth, the Way of the Earth Immortal..."

Houtu combined what Zhen Yuanzi and Gui Yuan had said, and the two merged together, making her understanding clearer. She looked around and when she arrived at the Netherworld Blood Sea, she sensed a familiar aura. So her Dao was indeed here?

"Greetings, Fellow Daoist Houtu!"

Clad in blood-red robes, with red lips and white teeth, Styx stood amidst the sea of ​​blood, his eyes bright, his feet resting on a red lotus, and two long swords emerging from behind him.

"Greetings, Fellow Daoist Styx!"

With a light step, Houtu seemed to traverse endless dimensions of time and space, arriving at the center of the Blood Sea from its edge.

She smiled and nodded to the Styx River in return, offering her greeting.

"I hope you will not take offense at my visit."

"Fellow Daoist, you flatter me. Your presence greatly honors my humble abode, Blood Sea. Please!"

Styx smiled and extended his right hand in an invitation.

Entering the passage, we arrived at the bottom of the sea of ​​blood.

A magnificent palace came into view, with innate blood jade as pillars, blood-red glass as tiles, and blood-red coral as embellishments, exuding a fierce and ancient aura.

The Styx River is by nature indifferent.

Although he cultivated the laws of killing and the laws of the soul, he was not warlike like many cultivators of the laws of killing. In fact, he was not very warlike, and his record in the prehistoric world was very small.

Because they rarely even show their faces.

Even in his own dojo, he was used to being alone and never accepted any disciples or children for enlightenment.

Enter the main hall.

It contains pure innate spiritual energy, as well as wisps of killing laws. This hall is made of blood crystals formed from countless drops of blood beneath the Blood Sea of ​​the Styx River.

The two sat facing each other, and Styx looked somewhat puzzled.

His Styx River had absolutely no connection with the Witch Clan.

"I wonder why the Ancestral Witch Houtu has come to find me?"

"Fellow Daoist, do you know why the Asura race you created can obtain merit, while some powerful beings who create races cannot?"

Houtu had already thought about it before she came.

The Asura race is in harmony with her earthly path, which is why the Asura race was bestowed with heavenly merits when it was created. That's because the earthly path hadn't yet emerged; otherwise, the Styx River would have received the earthly virtues.

If there is primordial blue energy.

Styx might even try to become a true saint.

Unfortunately, there is no such thing.

But it's not too late now.

Styx frowned. Over the years, there have indeed been many powerful beings who created life like him. After all, none of the four races of Asura he created have become saints, which makes him feel somewhat bitter.

Therefore, when other great beings create life, he will also use his supernatural powers to observe and see where he is lacking.

He discovered that these powerful beings were far more insignificant than he had imagined.

Creating living beings does not even bring any merit.

This made him wonder if the Asura race was somehow special.

But unexpectedly, Houtu directly pointed it out.

"Because the Asura race are beings of the earth, and the earth has not yet emerged. The merit you have gained is the merit of the heavenly path, and the path you cultivate is to sever the three corpses, which has already been established as the law of the heavenly path."

How did you attain enlightenment?

"Fellow Daoist, are you saying my Dao is in the 'Earthly Path'?" Styx was stunned.

These powerful beings all knew about the three paths of Heaven, Earth, and Man, but in the past they only knew a concept, that the three paths of Heaven, Earth, and Man might exist in the universe.

But what exactly the three paths of Heaven, Earth, and Man represent is unknown.

Only after the Dao Ancestor finished his three sermons did everyone realize that the so-called Heavenly Dao was responsible for determining the general trend of the primordial world.

Humanity is responsible for the evolution of all living beings.

The Heavenly Dao has already been established, and the Dao Ancestor Hongjun has been appointed as its spokesperson.

I'm currently reading the error-free version! This novel was first published on 6=9+Book_Bar.

Humanity has also emerged, and its emergence is earth-shattering. Nuwa created the human race and took charge of humanity, becoming the master of humanity, and even turned the tables on Hongjun.

He scattered the primordial purple energy throughout the vast wilderness, condensed it into divine positions, and used the power of humanity to influence the great trend of the Heavenly Dao.

As for the tunnels...

Everyone knows it exists, but no one knows how to make it appear, or what its purpose is.

Houtu suddenly spoke.

Is his Dao related to the Earth Dao?

"Yes, not only is your path in the Earthly Path, but mine is also in the Earthly Path. You were born in the Sea of ​​Blood, a place where the negative forces of heaven and earth converge, and you wield the Karmic Fire Red Lotus, which can burn away karma..."

As Houtu spoke, the Styx's expression became increasingly unpredictable.

Because he had deduced it himself, and it seemed to be true.

His mind was shaken even more, and he looked at Houtu and couldn't help but ask, "What should we do now?"

"The Heavenly Way has the Heavenly Court, and the Earthly Way naturally has a corresponding existence, which is the Underworld. We need to find the Underworld first."

Houtu spoke.

Styx was shaken to his core by these words from Houtu.

Needless to say, the underworld is very likely located beneath the sea of ​​blood.

"So, I haven't actually been to the very bottom of the Blood Sea, because the malevolent energy there is just too heavy. Even I find it a bit too much to handle."

However, now that Fellow Daoist Houtu has arrived, it is indeed worthwhile to go and take a look.

The Styx then took control of its own origin to protect him and Houtu, and traveled from the bottom of the Blood Sea to a deeper part of it.

We traveled back and forth.

An endless aura of bloodlust swept over us.

The subtle, oppressive aura caused both Styx and Houtu to feel a sense of unease.

The crimson color gradually faded, transforming into an extremely dense black aura that lingered around the area. This was a deeper layer of earthly evil energy than the blood sea aura.

Even creatures born from the River Styx, a sea of ​​blood, dare not touch it, for fear of polluting their primordial spirit.

But for Houtu, there was no harm at all; her aura enveloped her and the Styx River, plunging them deep into the earth.

"Buzz!"

I don't know how much time has passed.

The two saw a world devoid of color, blocked by an incredibly powerful 'world barrier,' radiating an aura of supreme, ancient grandeur and intimacy.

"Is this the real underworld?"

Styx was stunned. It turned out that Houtu was not joking, but that such a thing really existed. He couldn't help but look at Houtu, whose eyes were also filled with shock.

It turns out that what Guiyuan said was true.

There is a Heavenly Court in the heavens, and a Netherworld on earth.

The underworld is responsible for communicating with humanity, judging the karma, evil energy, and turbid energy of all spirits, absorbing their negative power and sending them into the cycle of reincarnation.
