If I let you lie low and remain the Dragon King, would you have unified the primordial world?

Chapter 113 One Strike Annihilates a Great Luo

Snatching the Twelfth Grade Karmic Fire Lotus from the Styx Ancestor was clearly no easy task.

The strength of the Styx Ancestor is also not to be underestimated, and his combat power far exceeds that of ordinary Great Luo Golden Immortals of the same level.

As one of the most renowned beings in the primordial world, Ao Bai also harbored some fear towards the Styx Ancestor.

"Very well, now I'm even more eager to kill you and see what secrets you hold!"

The Styx Ancestor wasn't stupid; he sensed Ao Bai's difference immediately.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for a cultivator at the Golden Immortal realm to break through to the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm in an instant.

It was precisely because he understood this that the Styx Ancestor had enough confidence to destroy Ao Bai.

"boom!"

The next moment, the Styx Ancestor made his move again. The Yuan Tu and A Bi swords in his hands transformed into two black dragons, tearing at Ao Bai and giving him no chance to escape.

The twelve-petaled karmic fire lotus beneath the feet of the Styx Ancestor spun, and he approached Ao Bai at an extremely fast speed. At the same time, endless karmic fire swept across the sky, burning everything.

Ao Bai dared not be careless. Although he had a trump card, he knew that now was not the best time to eliminate his opponent.

The saying "The sea of ​​blood will never dry up, and the River Styx will never die" is no joke.

If Ao Bai fails to kill the Styx Ancestor, he will inevitably face the most insane revenge.

Therefore, Ao Bai was unwilling to reveal his hand easily until he was absolutely certain of success.

"Hahaha, old Styx, you're far too arrogant. You think you can kill me now? That's just wishful thinking!"

Ao Bai ignored him completely and used his supernatural powers to quickly disappear into the distance.

The Styx Ancestor was furious. He relentlessly pursued Ao Bai, determined to destroy him.

Whale Fall was terrified. His speed was far inferior to that of the three. If Ao Bai hadn't taken him into the Sea-Stabilizing Pearl beforehand, he probably wouldn't even have had a chance to escape now.

"Ao Bai, if you have the guts, stop running and fight me!"

The Styx Ancestor said grimly. He had been chasing Ao Bai all the way, but he couldn't close the distance. Even though his Blood God Escape speed was unparalleled, it was still a bit inferior to Ao Bai's.

Ao Bai is of dragon blood, and now he is in the ocean, giving him a perfect advantage.

Although the Styx Ancestor can be considered half a water spirit, his greatest ability is not water control, but killing, destruction and the way of blood.

Ao Bai is completely different. His bloodline is naturally close to water, and the techniques he cultivates are also compatible with water. Therefore, the ocean is his home turf.

With the addition of the [Soaring Dragon] technique, Ao Bai's speed had reached its limit, making it no problem for him to escape the entanglement of the Styx Ancestor.

"You can't even catch up with me, do you expect me to stop and wait for you? Hahaha!"

Ao Bai toyed with the Styx Ancestor and then fled far away.

However, the [Soaring Dragon] technique is ultimately time-limited. After Ao Bai accelerated his escape from the range of the Styx's primordial spirit's detection, he immediately stopped and quietly disappeared into the depths of the sea.

"Unfortunately, if I could keep using the [Soaring Dragon] technique, I might have been able to escape successfully."

Ao Bai hid deep in the sea, constantly descending to avoid the divine sense probing of the two from the Styx River, while completely concealing his aura.

The Western Sea is extremely barren, and the seabed below is in a terrible state, with terrifying cracks spreading in all directions.

If the seawater dries up, the land below will inevitably form large rift valleys.

"The Western lands were severely damaged during World War I."

Ao Bai sighed, realizing that he had been hiding deep within these rift valleys, evading the pursuit of the two from the Styx River.

The depths of the Western Sea are dark and devoid of life, where Ao Bai waits patiently, lying in wait.

The Styx Ancestor chased after him for hundreds of millions of miles, but unfortunately, he still couldn't find Ao Bai's shadow.

"Fellow Daoist Styx, Ao Bai has always been cunning; he has probably already escaped."

Blood River Daoist said bitterly, this was the best opportunity to kill Ao Bai, but unfortunately they couldn't catch up and could only watch helplessly as Ao Bai escaped.

"Hmph, that brat Ao Bai stole my opportunity; I'll definitely kill him another day!"

The Styx Ancestor's eyes were filled with murderous intent; the twelfth-grade world-destroying black lotus was the opportunity that had drawn him here.

This top-grade innate spiritual treasure and his twelfth-grade Karmic Fire Red Lotus share the same origin. If the Styx River can obtain it, his future destiny will surely undergo tremendous changes.

But now Ao Bai has intervened and taken away the twelfth-grade Black Lotus of Annihilation. How can the Styx Ancestor accept this?

"Fellow Daoist Styx, Ao Bai is only relying on Ao Feng and that lineage of aquatic beings. If we join forces, wiping them out will be no problem at all."

Blood River Taoist said that she had always wanted to kill Ao Feng and Ao Bai, and now that the opportunity of the Styx River had been taken away, she immediately began to persuade them.

Of course, the Styx Ancestor knew Ao Feng; during the trip to Zixiao Palace, Ao Feng had really stolen the show.

Back then, who didn't know who was the number one person in Zixiao Palace?

Currently, the Styx Ancestor is only an early-stage Grand Luo Golden Immortal cultivator, and he doesn't dare to challenge Ao Feng.

In addition, the powerful array surrounding Ao Feng made it even more formidable.

"This matter requires careful consideration. Let's return to the Blood Sea first, gather information about Ao Bai, and then deliver a decisive blow!"

The Styx Ancestor was determined to obtain the Twelfth-Grade World-Destroying Black Lotus, and he would not give it up easily.

Although Ao Bai is now missing, as long as they find Ao Bai and Ao Feng's hideout, they will be able to catch him sooner or later.

The monk may run away, but the temple cannot; Styx knew this very well.

However, he still needs to use some methods to deal with Ao Bai and Ao Feng.

Furthermore, the Mosquito Taoist in the Blood Sea has not yet been eliminated, which has always been a major concern for the Styx Ancestor.

Mosquito Taoist was also a creature born from the Sea of ​​Blood, and his strength was extraordinary. However, his origins and fortune were inferior to Styx's, and he did not possess any powerful companion spirit treasures. Therefore, he was suppressed by Styx in every way.

However, Mosquito Taoist's methods were unpredictable and varied, making it difficult for Styx Ancestor to kill him. He could only use methods to drive him out of the Blood Sea.

"Fellow Daoist is right. Let's go back and study this carefully, then find some like-minded people to wipe out Ao Feng and Ao Bai together!"

A glimmer of hope appeared in the eyes of the Blood River Taoist. They ceased their pursuit and turned back towards the boundless sea of ​​blood.

Deep in the ocean, Ao Bai lay in hiding, not even cultivating, all to avoid the pursuit of the Styx Ancestor.

This period of dormancy lasted for hundreds of years.

"Whale Fall, go out and check the situation."

Ao Bai was clever; he sent Whale Fall out to scout ahead while he remained hidden.

The whale fall and the River Styx never met, so the other party did not recognize him.

Whale Fall didn't want to go, but had no choice but to bite the bullet and leave.

The whale fell quickly, and he swam around in the sea, but found no trace of the River Styx.

Ao Bai possesses a wisp of Whale Fall's true spirit, so he can also sense the situation around Whale Fall.

"It seems Styx and the others have left, but that guy is cunning, so I'd better be careful."

After much deliberation, Ao Bai decided to take a detour back, preferring to travel a longer distance rather than give the Styx River an opportunity to ambush him.

He planned to retreat to the westernmost point first, then head south, and finally east to return to the South China Sea.

If we go through all this trouble and are still ambushed by the River Styx, then there's really nothing we can do.

Ao Bai called for Jingluo and they left from the rear.

They crossed the Western Sea and reached the more prestigious Western Regions.

"The Western Sage King oversees the troops; a powerful member of the White Tiger clan, guarding the Western Regions."

Ao Bai pondered inwardly, this was his first time approaching the Western Regions.

He was shocked by the extent of the damage; the ground was scarred and ruins were everywhere.

The land is barren, and desertification is severe.

There are very few places where vegetation and life can survive; endless black mist swirls and turbulent currents surge on those fractured lands.

These places are the cracks left by the great war back then, and even now, chaotic currents still rage in from here, continuing to disrupt the order of the primordial world.

"Sigh, with so many cracks, it's no wonder that the western land can't retain spiritual energy. I'm afraid the spiritual energy can't even keep up with the rate of leakage."

Ao Bai was helpless; his strength was too low to change anything.

The western earth veins have been completely destroyed, and the earth no longer produces spiritual energy. Most of the spiritual energy flowing from the eastern land has also been lost through the cracks.

As a result, the western lands will never be able to recover; they will only become more and more barren, and even the eastern lands will be affected, thus dragging down the entire prehistoric world.

"If I can repair these wounds, I should also receive a lot of merit rewards, which will further enhance my merit-based holy embryo."

Ao Bai was intrigued; this was indeed a good path, but repairing these cracks would require a certain level of strength.

Those chaotic currents were extremely powerful, exactly the same as the earth, water, fire, and wind forces within the chaos, and cultivators below the Great Luo Golden Immortal level dared not approach them.

Although Ao Bai now has some trump cards, he is unwilling to continue using the Merit Holy Embryo Fusion technique. This secret method should be used at crucial moments.

Just as Ao Bai left the Western Regions and headed south, a dark light suddenly appeared and attacked him.

"boom!"

The violent divine power shook the surroundings, and Ao Bai, sitting on the giant whale, quickly dodged away.

The whale was not so lucky; it was instantly severely injured, and most of its huge body was shattered.

"Who dares to ambush me from the shadows!"

Ao Bai roared and stored the whale fall inside the Sea-Stabilizing Pearl, while he used his divine sense to investigate.

Not far underground, shadowy figures appeared.

It was the demons who launched the sneak attack, but unfortunately they failed.

"Ao Bai!"

The other party clearly recognized Ao Bai and had been waiting here for a long time.

Ao Bai frowned slightly as he merged with the Holy Embryo of Merit.

He didn't recognize the other person. This Great Luo Golden Immortal was exceptionally powerful and should be considered a formidable figure among the demons today.

Who are you?

Ao Bai wasn't in a hurry and immediately inquired about the other party's identity.

The fact that they ambushed Ao Bai here clearly indicates some kind of grudge.

Previously, Ao Bai and Ao Feng had wiped out the demon race in the Eastern Pole. Many of the remaining demons escaped that time. In addition, Ao Bai later obtained the God-Slaying Spear and the Twelfth-Grade World-Destroying Black Lotus, which created a lot of karma between Ao Bai and the demon race.

"We demons have an irreconcilable hatred for you, and today I have come to annihilate you!"

The demonic blade glared menacingly at Ao Bai, showing no intention of engaging in conversation. Having missed its first attack, it launched another fierce strike.

"boom!"

This time, the Demon Blade transformed its attack into a long blade, with endless demonic energy surging in all directions, slashing straight at Ao Bai's head.

Ao Bai didn't waste any words. He was unwilling to fight to the death against the two from the Styx River, but he didn't take a mere Demon Clan Grand Luo Golden Immortal seriously.

"The demon is truly confident. Do you think you can kill me?"

Ao Bai scoffed and unleashed his own divine power, striking back.

The God-Slaying Spear was already in his hand at some point, and Ao Bai was clearly determined to kill him.

"The God-Slaying Spear!"

The Demon Blade exclaimed in surprise. He truly hadn't expected that this top-grade innate spiritual treasure would actually be in Ao Bai's hands.

The reason why the Demon Blade attacked Ao Bai before was because he learned about the Demon Cave in the Eastern Pole from his subordinates. Now that he has encountered Ao Bai, he secretly took action.

The karmic connection between the demons and Ao Bai is also at play in the unseen realm.

"Bang!"

The God-Slaying Spear flashed like lightning, and although the Demon Blade tried its best to dodge, it was already too late.

The spear struck like lightning, shattering the demonic blade's defenses in a single blow, and then instantly killing him.

The power of the God-Slaying Spear is something that even a Great Luo Golden Immortal cannot withstand.

This was the first time Ao Bai had used this top-grade innate spiritual treasure, and he hadn't expected it to be so powerful.

"Even a Great Luo Golden Immortal level being had no chance to resist under the God-Slaying Spear; it's truly formidable!"

Ao Bai sighed, this divine weapon was unparalleled, and few living beings could withstand its sharp attacks.

Without a supreme treasure in hand, the God-Slaying Spear can tear through any defense, leaving the enemy utterly defenseless.

This is precisely where the power of the God-Slaying Spear lies.

The greatest power of the God-Slaying Spear is its ability to harm even saints.

As for why this divine weapon is not a supreme innate treasure, Ao Bai has always been very puzzled.

If such divine weapons were to be promoted to the ranks of innate supreme treasures in the future, countless cultivators would probably tremble with fear.

After Ao Bai destroyed the Demon Blade, a stream of merit descended and was once again integrated into the Holy Embryo of Merit by Ao Bai.

"There's also a merit reward, not bad. It seems there must be another demon cave nearby. Why don't I wipe them all out and earn merit energy to further expand the power of my Merit Holy Embryo?"

Ao Bai used the Holy Embryo of Merit to do many things this time, and after tasting the benefits, he naturally hoped to further strengthen the Holy Embryo of Merit.

Now that the Holy Embryo of Merit is already a Great Luo Golden Immortal, as long as Ao Bai continues to collect merit energy, it will be no problem for it to advance to the middle stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm.

Furthermore, the Five Elements Spiritual Light, once obtained, will undoubtedly help the Holy Embryo of Merit to be greatly enhanced once again.

"First, I'll wipe out the demons and earn merit. I should get quite a few rewards for crossing the ocean this time."

Ao Bai pondered this in his mind and immediately began to use his divine sense to search around.

Hunting demons is a good way to earn merit and a shortcut to help improve one's merit-based spiritual embryo.

The fall of the demonic blade was immediately sensed by the demons, and the demons hidden in the shadows also sprang into action.

Ao Bai simply searched underground and immediately discovered a large number of demons.

Upon seeing those countless demonic beings, Ao Bai instantly became happy, for this was a massive amount of merit energy!
