Jackie Chan Adventures: I have everything I need now.

Chapter 296: The Primordial Grand Luo Confronts the Sage, Finally Leaving with a Sigh

At this moment, within the Palace of Ten Thousand Spirits, the Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin clans all extended olive branches.

The fact that Styx, a peak Quasi-Saint, is a powerful figure, allows them to widen the gap between themselves and other forces.

The Styx Ancestor's perpetually icy face shifted in various ways, as if he were deep in thought.

The ancestor needs to carefully consider the offers from these three clans. If he agrees now, wouldn't he be living under someone else's thumb?

Although his method of slaying saints to prove his path to enlightenment is something that probably only the Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin clans have the courage to protect him.

But then I thought, what kind of person is he, the Styx Ancestor?

The Netherworld Blood Sea never dries up, the Styx River never dies; they possess their own proud spirit.

He cultivated himself through countless eons, seeking transcendence and freedom, not to jump from one fire pit to another and be shackled again.

He has always been shrewd, and naturally he would carefully consider such a deal.

By joining the Dragon Clan, one receives the protection of the Ancestral Dragon and is unafraid of threats from saints.

The same applies to joining the Phoenix Clan and the Qilin Clan.

The problem is, that's not the most important thing. Right now, the threat from the sage can only be a possibility.

It's not certain. He, Styx, possesses an immortal body. At worst, he can test whether the Heavenly Saint will truly attack him.

If they really took action, he agreed to join the three clans.

Moreover, good things in this world always come with a price tag.

He joined the Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin clans and received their protection, but the price he paid was still unknown, so he needed to be cautious.

Thinking of this, the Styx Ancestor had already made up his mind.

He cupped his hands in greeting to Ao Guang, Kong Xuan, and the Four-Faced Beast, and said in a hoarse voice, "I appreciate the kindness of the three fellow Daoists!"

"However, Ancestor still needs to consider this matter, as it is not something that can be decided overnight!"

Upon seeing this, Ao Guang's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he exchanged a glance with Kong Xuan and the four-legged creature.

They understood what the Styx Ancestor meant.

But before long, or perhaps immediately, this Styx will be crying and begging to join one of their clans.

After all, killing a saint to prove one's Dao is unacceptable to a saint.

Ao Guang smiled slightly, calm and composed, showing no trace of the dragon race's domineering nature.

In the past, when the Dragon Clan was in decline, he concealed his brilliance. Now that the Dragon Clan is prosperous and revived, his domineering nature is not directed at someone like Styx, a quasi-saint at the peak, or even a powerful figure who might join their Dragon Clan.

He smiled and then said, "I understand what Fellow Daoist Styx means!"

"No matter when, my Dragon Clan will always open its doors to Fellow Daoist Styx!"

After saying that, he glanced at the outside of the Palace of Ten Thousand Spirits without making a sound, and with a slight movement of his fingertips, a mysterious rune quietly disappeared into the void.

He wanted to tell his Ancestral Dragon Emperor to prepare himself, for the Heavenly Dao Saint of the Primordial World was about to unleash his fury.

The method of attaining enlightenment through the Styx River was revealed in the Palace of Ten Thousand Spirits. Normally, the outside world would not have known this until those of you present left the Palace of Ten Thousand Spirits.

However, at this moment, the Palace of Ten Thousand Spirits contains disciples of the Chan Sect and the Human Sect.

Although they were members of Hongjun's faction, their master had not said that they were not allowed to go to Wanling Palace to listen to the Dao.

In this way, the method by which the Styx Ancestor attained sainthood was revealed to their master.

At this moment, Kong Xuan also nodded, his phoenix eyes gleaming with multicolored divine light, and said, "It is normal for Fellow Daoist Styx to consider such an important matter. Our Phoenix Clan will always wait!"

"As long as Fellow Daoist Styx speaks in the primordial world, my mother will immediately protect you!"

The Qilin scratched its head and said in a deep voice, "Fellow Daoist Styx, my Qilin clan is the same."

The actions of Ao Guang, Kong Xuan, and the four unlike creatures were observed by the other powerful figures present.

They were all taken aback. These three clans—Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin—truly did not take the Sage seriously, and even dared to protect the Styx River.

It looks like a good show is about to begin.

At this moment, the god remembered everything. His sermon was over, and the Palace of Ten Thousand Spirits would probably be abandoned in the future, but that had nothing to do with him.

After all, this was just a palace he used for preaching, so it was only natural that it would be abandoned if he didn't preach.

Then, Shendu gently raised his hand, his voice carrying a hint of majesty, and said to everyone: "My sermon is finished. You may all leave now."

Upon hearing this, the Wanling Palace fell silent instantly.

All living beings were startled, knowing that this opportunity had come to an end, and dared not linger any longer.

They all rose to their feet, bowed respectfully to the gods, and then transformed into streaks of light, filing out one after another.

In an instant, outside the Palace of Ten Thousand Spirits, celestial light shone brightly and auspicious clouds stretched in thousands.

Countless powerful beings and primordial creatures, carrying the insights gained from their sermons, hurriedly returned to their caves to meditate and digest them, attempting to break through their own bottlenecks.

Only after witnessing everyone's departure did the Styx Ancestor slowly rise.

His primordial spirit trembled with fear, and the thought of what would happen after he stepped out of the gates of the Palace of Ten Thousand Spirits made him want to faint.

Then, he took a deep breath, and the bloodthirsty aura condensed around him, instantly forming a Blood God Child avatar. He commanded, "You go out first!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Blood God's clone nodded in response.

As these words fell, the clone walked step by step towards the outside of the Palace of Ten Thousand Spirits.

The moment the Blood God's toes left the Palace of Ten Thousand Spirits and arrived in the primordial starry sky.

"Om-!"

A deafening roar that shook the primordial world, accompanied by an indescribable pressure, instantly enveloped the entire chaos.

High above the heavens, a dazzling Tai Chi diagram appeared out of nowhere, with the Yin and Yang energies circulating and evolving into all things. Carrying a terrifying power that could suppress all heavens, it crashed straight toward the Blood God's clone.

Immediately following, an ancient and massive banner tore through the chaos, and the Pangu Banner appeared in the world!

On the banner, chaotic energy surged, and the power to create the world erupted instantly.

Strands of chaotic sword energy ripped through the void, carrying a sharpness that could cut through anything, and pointed directly at the Blood God's clone!

Wherever the sword energy passed, stars shattered and space tore apart.

The Western Sages, Amitabha and Cundi, also acted simultaneously.

A blessed scepter descended from the sky, radiating boundless Buddhist light and carrying the supreme vow to liberate all sentient beings.

The six senses are purified, and bitter bamboo also follows.

Countless bamboo leaves transformed into sharp blades, sealing off the six senses of the Blood God's clone, rendering it unable to resist.

At that moment, the four Heavenly Saints joined forces with remarkable coordination to launch a thunderous attack on the Styx Ancestor!

Upon learning of the Styx Ancestor's method of attaining enlightenment, they were filled with dread. They had been waiting for this moment for a long time, ready to completely annihilate the Styx Ancestor as soon as he appeared, to prevent future troubles!

Such power is enough to make the primordial world tremble and make the heavens and earth lose their color!

Outside the Palace of Ten Thousand Spirits, the powerful beings and ordinary people who had just left were all horrified.

They stopped and looked up at the starry sky in horror.

The saint's power was so overwhelming that they could hardly breathe.

"The sage... actually took action directly!"

"My God! Is this going to completely kill the Styx Ancestor?!"

"Who can withstand such power?!"

Countless beings were shocked. They had thought that the Styx Ancestor's method of attaining enlightenment might attract the siege of saints, but they did not expect it to happen so quickly.

However, just as the Tai Chi diagram, the Pangu banner, the blessing scepter, and the Six Pure Bamboo were about to fall upon the Blood God Child—

"Roar--!"

A deafening dragon roar erupted from the depths of the East Sea, echoing through the heavens! A golden dragon, hundreds of millions of miles long, carrying boundless majesty and domineering power, pierced through the void.

He stood between heaven and earth, the First Dragon was born!

With a wave of its claws, a water curtain, imbued with the Great Dao of Water, both gentle and strong, directly blocked the attack of Taiqing Laozi Yuanshi Tianzun.

At the same time, deep within the Undying Volcano, a blazing phoenix fire transformed into a pillar of light, soaring into the sky and illuminating the entire primordial world.

"Wow—!"

A clear and majestic phoenix cry rang out, and the phoenix soared into the sky!

She was draped in a rainbow of light, and with a flap of her wings, endless phoenix flames burned forth, directly suppressing and repelling the empowered scepter.

Not only that, but a profound and majestic aura also soared into the sky from the primordial land!

"Moo-!"

A deep, powerful roar.

A giant Qilin, riding on auspicious clouds, emerged from the ground.

Unsurprisingly, he was the lord of the Qilin clan, the First Qilin.

He was enveloped in an endless breath of earth energy, which transformed into an indestructible curtain of light.

With a spit, a stream of primordial energy containing the essence of the earth surged forth, heading towards the starry sky and blocking the Six Pure Bitter Bamboos.

At this moment, the three progenitors of the Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin appeared out of nowhere with the force of thunder, confronting the four Heavenly Saints.

They came only for the River Styx.

The void was instantly torn apart, only to be mended by the primordial origin.

The power of the Heavenly Saint and the power of the Primordial Golden Immortal clashed.

The impact caused the primordial world to tremble, but there was no tearing apart.

This is because the current primordial world can withstand the actions of a saint-level being.

But the great war will inevitably have some impact on the primordial world itself.

On the vast and desolate land, countless creatures stared in disbelief, utterly shocked.
