The people of the primordial era ruled the heavens and earth.

With a thought, the Lord of the Styx unleashed the two divine swords, Yuan Tu and A Bi, that he carried on his back, which flew out and pierced towards Haotian and Yaochi respectively.

The Yuan Tu and A Bi are top-grade innate spiritual treasures, and rare killing spiritual treasures in the primordial world. Their grade is no lower than that of the Eastern Azure Lotus Treasure Banner.

Not to mention, it was Styx, a great sage, who took action.

With a mournful cry, the Azure Lotus Banner fell from the sky to the ground, visibly dimming.

However, it could not withstand the power of Yuan Tu and A Bi's two swords, and its spirituality was damaged.

Yaochi, its master, was also seriously injured. Its primordial spirit was struck as if by lightning, and it spat out a mouthful of blood, its body swaying precariously.

Haotian wanted to help, but the next second, he became just like Yaochi.

No, it should be said that it's even worse.

After Yuan Tu and A Bi broke through the Azure Lotus Banner, they did not stop. Under the will of the Styx Master, they continued to stab at the Haotian Mirror.

The Haotian Mirror is a supreme innate spiritual treasure created by Haotian's life and spirit, and it was further refined by the Dao Ancestor who removed all the innate restrictions within it.

But he still couldn't escape. He was destined to be shot down by the Yuan Tu and Abi.

With a thud, it fell to the ground.

Haotian felt a tearing pain in his primordial spirit, and with a "poof," he spat out a mouthful of blood, fell backward to the ground, and his body convulsed.

Seeing the two spiritual treasures lying on the ground, their spiritual light dimmed, Huang Tian's mind stirred, and he looked at the Master of the Styx River and said:

"Teacher, could you please remove the primordial spirit imprints from these two spiritual treasures for me?"

"I quite like these two treasures."

Styx rolled his eyes, wanting to say, "What are you pretending for?"

You didn't actually die.

Only the physical body is no longer viable, but the power of the primordial spirit remains.

But seeing Houtu's murderous gaze, the Styx Master dared not be negligent.

These two are not to be trifled with.

With a thought, the Lord of the Styx stretched out his hand, intending to take the Azure Lotus Banner and the Haotian Mirror from afar.

But little did they know that these magical treasures possessed spirits, and when they were being refined, they became extremely resistant to being touched by others.

It actually gave the Styx Lord a hard time. Its originally dim body burst out with divine light and flew up from the ground, autonomously resisting the Styx Lord's magic power.

"You don't know what's good for you." The Styx Cult Leader's face showed anger: "Following my disciple is no better than following these two pieces of trash."

As the flowers fell, the Lord of the Styx, disregarding whether it would damage the Azure Lotus Banner or the spirituality of the Haotian Mirror, directly increased his magical output and forcibly took the two treasures.

Then he wanted to erase the Yaochi and Haotian's primordial spirit imprint within it.

"Master of the Styx, how dare you!"

"This treasure was personally bestowed by the Dao Ancestor to protect me and my senior brother."

"If you take it away today, my fellow disciples and I will never let you get away with it."

"Haha." The Lord of the Styx laughed loudly, then coldly shouted, "Stop spouting nonsense. You two attacked my disciple first."

"I'll take two of your treasures to compensate my disciple, so what!"

Without hesitation, the Lord of the Styx waved his hand, and the powerful killing intent surged into the Haotian Mirror and the Azure Lotus Banner, instantly shattering the primordial spirit imprints of Haotian and Yaochi.

Then, he tossed it to Huang Tian.

Haotian was already severely injured because of the attack from the Styx River, which caused his primordial spirit to rebound.

At this moment, the Styx Master erased his primordial spirit imprint, which made matters worse. Before he could even finish spitting out a mouthful of blood, he fainted.

Yaochi was also in a bad state. She could no longer hold on and fell to the ground, looking at the Styx Master, Huangtian, and Houtu with resentment.

Huang Tian was never an indecisive person, seeing Yaochi's appearance.

He knew that once the other person recovered, they would definitely cause him trouble again.

Although he was not afraid, Yaochi's strength was not bad, and she was undoubtedly a potential threat to the human race.

With a thought, Huang Tian looked at Styx and said, "Teacher, keeping this person around is also a disaster."

"I might as well go all the way and have her."

The Lord of the Styx glanced at Huang Tian in surprise, and couldn't help but send him a telepathic message: "Hey, are you serious?!"

"Yaochi has quite a background; she and Haotian have been by Hongjun's side for many years."

"In the past, when Hongjun of Zixiao Palace was expounding the Great Dao, it was these two who guarded the gate there."

"Take care of her, it's a small matter."

"But if we provoke Hongjun, then things will get serious."

Qin Tian smiled and said, "Don't worry, they're just children. As long as they don't go too far, Haotian will be fine."

The Lord of the Styx was even more puzzled: "What kind of operation is this now?"

"Kill Yaochi, spare Haotian."

"Then what was the point of killing Yaochi?"

"Intuition." Huang Tian smiled slightly: "That woman Yaochi practically has the words 'I want revenge on me' written all over her face."

"But Haotian is different. He won't do anything unwise unless he's driven to the brink."

Styx nodded, asked no further questions, raised his hand and pointed, the Law of Slaughter condensed into a beam of light, shooting towards Yaochi.

Yaochi looked flustered and hurriedly retreated. She never expected that the Lord of the Styx would actually dare to kill her.

However, the light arrived in the blink of an eye, just as Yaochi closed her eyes in despair.

Suddenly, a sword aura flashed by, shattering the killing beam shot out by the Styx Master.

"Fellow Daoist Styx, please show mercy."

Looking at the Primordial Celestial Venerable before him, dressed in a magnificent Taoist robe and wearing a crown, the Styx Master chuckled softly:

"Fellow Daoist Yuanshi has been watching the show for so long, why don't you watch it a little longer?"

"Why bother coming out to plead for a dying man?"

"A cause and effect has been created out of nowhere."

Upon hearing this, Yuanshi realized something was amiss, as he had witnessed Yaochi's performance earlier.

It can be said that if Yaochi hadn't acted recklessly, the Styx Cult Leader would never have intended to kill her.

At this moment, the Lord of the Styx made his intentions clear.

Yaochi will definitely have a hurdle in her heart. She thought that her rescue at this time would not only fail to please him, but might even sow the seeds of a bad cause.

Indeed, the fox didn't get any food, but instead got into a lot of trouble.

Thinking of this, Yuanshi wanted to leave and no longer concern himself with the matter.

But then he thought that Hongjun wanted him to take care of Haotian and Yaochi.

He could only swallow this bitter pill and pretend to be nonchalant, saying, "Fellow Daoist Styx, this request is not of my own volition, but of my teacher's."

"I hope you understand, fellow Daoist." With that, Yuanshi Tianzun looked up.

The Lord of the Styx understood, knowing that the Primordial Celestial Venerable was alluding to Hongjun.

But he didn't care and replied calmly, "I understand what Fellow Daoist Yuanshi means."

"But, Fellow Daoist Yuanshi, I have already made preparations before I take action."

"Please do not make a mistake for yourself, fellow Daoist."

Although Yuanshi Tianzun wished that the Styx Lord would kill Yaochi, he was very displeased with the Styx Lord's threatening words.

His expression turned cold, and he said somewhat angrily, "Fellow Daoist Styx, since that's the case, there's no point in saying more."

"Let's have a battle from beyond the heavens!"
