Primordial Salted Fish: Starting from Refusing to Join the Demon Clan

The Netherworld Blood Sea is a primordial, extremely yin and filthy place.

This place was formed from the filthy blood that emerged from Pangu's navel when he created the world. It is located in the far north of the Nine Netherworlds, forming its own world. It belongs neither to heaven nor earth, nor is it subject to reincarnation. It is the most forbidden place in the primordial world.

A vast sea of ​​blood stretches for billions of miles, boundless and deep into the core of the earth's veins. The sun, moon, and stars are never seen; only an eternal, blood-red darkness and a suffocating, boundless silence pervade the air.

The viscous blood surged and rolled, exuding a corrosive, sweet stench and endless resentment. Ordinary creatures would turn to dust and their souls would be annihilated upon contact with it.

At the core of this filthy and desolate place, a terrifying being was born—the Styx Ancestor.

He was a primordial god-demon born from the interaction of the original will of the Blood Sea and the essence of Pangu's filthy blood, accompanied by two supreme killing treasures, the "Yuantu" and "Abi" swords, as well as the primordial supreme spiritual treasures "Karmic Fire Red Lotus" and "Mysterious Origin Water Control Flag".

From the moment of its birth, the Styx River has been one with the Sea of ​​Blood; as long as the Sea of ​​Blood dries up, the Styx River will never die. It is perverse in nature, suspicious and jealous, and deeply understands the way of "survival".

In the future, after Nuwa gained immense merit and became a saint by creating humans, he chose to imitate Nuwa and created the "Asura Clan" to accumulate merit. He himself used the Blood Sea as a foundation to cultivate 480 million Blood God Child clones, making him a veritable incarnation of the Blood Sea.

At this moment, Styx sat upright in the "Blood God Palace," formed from the essence of endless filthy blood, deep within the Blood Sea. Blood light swirled around him, with the Yuan Tu and A Bi swords hovering beside him. The Karmic Fire Red Lotus slowly rotated beneath him, releasing the Karmic Fire that burned away karma and kept the filth and malevolence of the Blood Sea at bay.

His cultivation had reached the early stage of Quasi-Saint (early stage of Primordial Golden Immortal) after severing one of his evil corpses. In this Blood Sea home arena, even a mid-stage Quasi-Saint would find it difficult to guarantee victory.

suddenly!

A pure and chilling killing intent, capable of freezing the soul, emerged from the Netherworld Blood Sea. Without warning, it pierced through the thick, filthy barrier surrounding the Blood Sea, like a drop of ice water falling into boiling oil, instantly shattering the lifeless balance that the Blood Sea had maintained for millions of years!

"Huh?!" In the Blood God Palace, the Styx Ancestor suddenly opened his eyes, a hint of surprise and violence flashing in his scarlet pupils.

As the Lord of the Blood Sea, he possessed an uncanny sensitivity to this world. This aura... was unfamiliar, powerful, and filled with destructive killing intent; it was definitely not from any creature of the Blood Sea, nor even resembled any Daoist charm commonly found in the primordial world!

What alarmed him even more was that the other party was able to penetrate the natural barrier of the Blood Sea so easily and descend into the core area, and... he couldn't even see through the origins of the newcomer for a moment!

All one could feel was a terrifying pressure, seemingly formed from the very act of killing itself, devoid of any life force.

Above the sea of ​​blood, space silently cracked open. A figure stepped out and stood firmly on the churning waves of blood.

It is the killing avatar of Kunpeng!

Its entire body was shrouded in a layer of condensed, almost tangible, scarlet aura. Its face was indistinct, except for a pair of eyes that gleamed with a murderous light deeper and colder than a sea of ​​blood, as if they could freeze time and space and pierce through the soul.

In his hand, he tightly gripped a long, narrow, blood-red demonic blade—the Blade of Slaughter!

The blade was dark red, as if it had been forged from the blood of countless gods and demons. The blood droplets dripping from the tip of the blade caused the surrounding rolling blood waves to freeze and retreat, emitting a ferocious power of a half-step innate supreme treasure that even made the Styx River tremble!

Its aura was clearly that of a mid-stage Quasi-Saint (mid-stage Primordial Golden Immortal)!

The moment the killing avatar appeared, its icy gaze pierced through the layers of blood waves, precisely locking onto the Blood God Palace at the deepest part of the Blood Sea, or more precisely, onto the Styx Ancestor guarded by the Karmic Fire Red Lotus within the palace.

There was no emotion in his gaze, only an absolute focus as he locked onto his prey.

The figure of the Styx Ancestor instantly appeared on the top of the blood wave not far in front of the Slaughter Avatar, confronting the Slaughter Avatar from a distance.

His body surged with blood-red light, and the two swords, Yuan Tu and A Bi, emitted buzzing sword sounds. The phantom of the karmic lotus floated above his head, and the karmic lotus flames burned fiercely, incinerating the surrounding filthy blood waves into nothingness.

He stared intently at the killing avatar, his voice hoarse and sinister, carrying the viscous quality unique to the Blood Sea: "Who are you? How dare you trespass into my forbidden Blood Sea! State your name!"

He was filled with doubt and unease. When did such a strange being emerge in the primordial world, who had achieved the mid-stage of Quasi-Saint through pure killing?

Why have I never heard of this before?

The Killing Avatar speaks no nonsense; its existence seems solely for killing and targeting.

A cold, mechanical voice, yet imbued with an undeniable will, pierced through the many barriers of the Blood Sea and resounded within the soul of the Styx River: "Karmic Fire Red Lotus."

These four simple words are like four invisible blades of slaughter, piercing straight into the mind of the Styx River!

The Styx Ancestor was stunned for a moment, and then a huge rage mixed with the extreme humiliation of being offended erupted!

Karmic Fire Red Lotus!

The other party had actually come for the innate top-grade spiritual treasure that accompanied him!

This is not just about stealing treasure, but also a blatant trampling on the dignity of the Styx Ancestor and the Lord of the Blood Sea!

Styx, enraged, laughed, his laughter causing the Blood Sea to surge with towering waves. "Fine! How dare you! I have guarded the Blood Sea for countless eons, and this is the first time I have seen such an arrogant fool! You want my Karmic Fire Lotus?"

The smile on his face instantly turned into a ferocious grin, his eyes blazed with bloodlust, and his entire body surged with killing intent, causing the entire sea of ​​blood to roar: "Fine! You can trade your life for it!"

"If you fail to take the Crimson Lotus today, then you shall be eternally condemned to the depths of this sea of ​​blood, becoming nourishment for my Blood God Child!"

Before he could finish speaking, Styx had already made his move!

He knew that his opponent was of a higher level than him and had come to seize the treasure, so there was no possibility of an amicable outcome. He had to seize the initiative and take advantage of his home field!

"A sea of ​​blood surges to the heavens! All spirits devour souls!"

Styx pressed down with both hands, and the boundless sea of ​​blood beneath his feet instantly erupted into chaos!

The viscous blood waves transformed into billions of ferocious blood-red beasts, vengeful spirits, and malevolent souls, emitting piercing screams that shook the very soul, and swept towards the killing avatar like a tidal wave!

Every drop of blood contains the terrifying power to taint magical treasures, erode the primordial spirit, and dissolve magical power, and is also mixed with the impact of the Styx River on the primordial spirit driven by the blood sea's origin!

Faced with this terrifying wave of blood that could engulf a vast world, the cold eyes of the Slaughtering Avatar remained completely unmoved.

It simply raised the killing blade in its hand slowly.

"kill."

A cold word was uttered.

There was no earth-shattering momentum, only a killing intent refined to the extreme, a dark red blade light that seemed capable of slicing through chaos, silently slashing out from the blade of slaughter!

Wherever the blade's edge passed, space was neatly sliced ​​open like fragile cloth, leaving behind dark cracks that could not heal for a long time.

The surging waves of blood and countless ferocious souls that rushed towards them were not shattered the moment they touched the blade's edge, but were directly... erased by that pure, all-annihilating killing intent!

But it's not over yet.
