Breaking Free of the Cage
Styx felt increasingly bitter.
Is what you're collecting moral virtue?
That's the culmination of my countless years of accumulation. The larger the Netherworld Blood Sea, the heavier the bloody and filthy atmosphere within it. As a being born from within it, the Styx is naturally stronger!
Now, after being purified by Wu Tian.
He's become deaf...
There's a huge dreadnought!
But Styx felt a sense of emptiness, and his Daoist aura seemed unstable, as if he were about to fall from the Quasi-Saint realm.
Coupled with Wu Tian's casual attitude, this made Styx feel even more bitter. It felt like he was being completely disregarded...
"Well..."
"Forget it, the situation is against us!"
Styx felt increasingly regretful. He had known about Hongyun's relationship with the Witch Clan all along. Why did he provoke the Witch Clan in the first place?
He originally thought the Witch Clan couldn't do anything to him.
Who would have thought that the Twelfth Grade White Lotus of World Cleansing possessed such power? It's practically the nemesis of the Netherworld Blood Sea!
A surge of thoughts welled up in my mind.
With an extremely bitter expression, Styx looked up at the completely enveloped golden light above the Blood Sea!
A loud bang was heard.
Countless strange phenomena occurred...
The immense Heavenly Dao De descended, heading straight for Wu Tian and the Twelfth Grade White Lotus of World Cleansing. Golden light flew out in mid-air, and everyone present got a share of it!
Yes, if it weren't for them.
It's impossible for Wu Tian to purify so much of the Netherworld Blood Sea so easily...
Even Styx himself, as a participant in this treacherous act, received a little!
But he preferred not to have it.
Is this meant as consolation or mockery?
Styx took this portion of Heavenly Dao Virtue into his hands, thinking helplessly, then turned his hand and put it into his body, and looked up at Wu Tian again!
The vast Heavenly Dao Virtue was held in Wu Tian's hand, and golden halos emanated from it. Then, with a thought, the Twelfth Grade White Lotus of World Cleansing beneath his feet rapidly shrank, and Wu Tian's body also shrank rapidly.
A moment later.
Slowly walking from the Blood Sea to the shore of the Netherworld Blood Sea, he casually split the De in his hand into four parts, sending two of them flying out in front of Xuan Ming and Houtu respectively!
Two more portions fell into the Twelfth Grade White Lotus of World Cleansing to aid in its refinement; and one portion was left for the Hongmeng Measuring-Heaven Ruler...
The Ancestral Witch were used to it.
Wu Tian has been smitten with his older sister since he was a child!
There was absolutely no jealousy involved...
Xuan Ming and Houtu hesitated for a moment, then cast another glance at Wu Tian, nodded to him, and with a flash of light in their hands, put it away.
After doing all this.
Styx hurriedly controlled the waves beneath his feet and moved towards Wu Tian and the others. Then, from a distance, he stared at Wu Tian with a "dazed" look.
Now you can finally talk about it, right?
What do you really want to do?
But to his surprise, Wu Tian didn't even look at him. Instead, he turned his gaze to Kunpeng and said with a smile:
"Fellow Daoist Kunpeng..."
"Thanks to your help this time!"
Kunpeng quickly shook his head.
He smiled helplessly.
"Fellow Daoist, what are you saying? Hongyun is incredibly brave. Even without me, the outcome would have been the same..."
As he spoke, Kunpeng's expression changed slightly.
Incredibly brave...
It's a bit incongruous to use such a word on Hongyun... but Hongyun really is like that. Is it true that one is influenced by one's surroundings?
Wu Tian chuckled and shook his head.
That's not how it works...
Although he and Hongyun had planned this together, Kunpeng was able to find a way to tell him after learning about it, and even took the initiative to act as his inside man. That's true friendship!
Wu Tian would naturally keep it in mind.
He immediately smiled and said:
"Fellow Daoist, there's no need for such formalities. I am well aware of the sentiments involved..."
Styx Jian was about to go crazy.
Wu Tian Tianyi was hanging on him, it was like a knife was hanging over his head. It would be better to announce his punishment sooner... so that he could feel at ease sooner!
The more this happened, the more agitated the Styx became.
Especially Wu Tian exchanged pleasantries with Kunpeng, if you were to ask who Styx hated the most among these people, it would naturally be Kunpeng ... The resentment in Styx's heart was even deeper than towards Wu Tian:
Mingming is with the Witch Clan and Hongyun.
But you're deliberately leading me into a pit, aren't you?
That jerk...
Styx Plainsman's red face darkened even more, his emotions becoming increasingly complicated!
He glanced at the Styx out of the corner of his eye.
Wu Tian chuckled inwardly. He was deliberately keeping Styx in suspense. A rebellious fellow like Styx needed to be tempered like a hawk...
After all, it concerns the Six Paths of Reincarnation.
Wu Tian had no intention of killing Styx or completely purifying the Netherworld Blood Sea; with the Twelfth Grade White Lotus of World Cleansing in hand, he had the ability to do so.
But who knows what kind of impact it will have on the future of the Underworld?
Let's be cautious!
Therefore.
Wu Tian wanted to temper Styx's temperament and see if he could subdue him; in fact, after Styx was born in the Underworld, the Netherworld Blood Sea was incorporated into the Underworld, and Styx was also a member of the Six Paths of Asura Path, and was originally a subordinate of the Empress Pingxin!
Now, a little earlier than usual.
With this thought in mind, Wu Tian pretended not to notice the Styx River's reaction, and with a thought, he probed into his own primordial Origin Realm...
In the Origin Realm.
On the edge of the world, amidst the chaotic primordial energy, an enormous Enlightenment Tea Tree takes root in the Void, its massive canopy scattering countless Daoist Charm.
A gourd floats uncertainly beneath the tree...
The earthen-yellow light emanated, conjuring a faint, otherworldly aura above the gourd. A illusory Hongyun cloud-like body sat upon it, its undying True Spirit flickering within, as it closed its eyes in cultivation!
"Brother Hongyun!"
Wu Tian called out.
As this sound rang out, Hongyun slowly opened her eyes, her gaze becoming increasingly profound, lacking much of her former carefree spirit, and revealing an even deeper Daoist Charm...
Upon seeing Wu Tian, the manifestation of her thoughts before her, Hongyun finally showed a hint of surprise and quickly stood up!
"Brother Wu Tian!"
Then he quickly cupped his hands in greeting to Wu Tian.
Hongyun sighed and said:
"Thank you, Brother Wu Tian. Only after giving up all my cultivation today do I feel like I've finally broken free from my shackles... Just as you said!"
Hongyun felt extremely fortunate.
"Self-destruction" is something that ordinary people would never agree to casually. Once it is activated, countless years of magical power will dissipate in an instant, leaving only external cultivation!
Therefore, Hongyun agreed.
She was thinking that she had received so much kindness from Wu Tian, and unlike Zhen Yuanzi, he was not useful and could not repay the Witch Clan... She could only exchange all this kindness for trust in Wu Tian!
"Brother Wu Tian wouldn't harm me!"
Hongyun thought to herself.
However, after the self-destruction of the True Spirit, which was trapped in the Innate Earth Gourd, Hongyun was deeply moved. Under the Enlightenment Tea Tree, he gained a more profound understanding!
The Primordial Violet Qi is an opportunity.
Isn't it also a cage, a confinement?
After faking his death, the calamity suddenly vanished, leaving him with a feeling of boundless freedom and sudden enlightenment!
As soon as Wu Tian Tianyi appeared, Hongyun quickly cupped her hands in thanks, her heart filled with emotion.
Wu Tian also nodded with a light laugh:
"It seems Brother Hongyun has gained profound insights..."
"Congratulations!"
