After Styx sorted out his current situation, he couldn't help but sigh. Old Ancestor Styx's origin was actually quite impressive; aside from Great Dao Merit, he was basically on par with the Sanqing, who were formed from Pangu Primordial Spirit, and he even came with three Supreme Innate Spiritual Treasures.

However, he was nurtured within Pangu's navel and was tainted by the residual essence blood of the three thousand Chaos Demon Gods, which led to his birth. This made his own bloodline appear rather chaotic and impure. Furthermore, because he was stained by the lingering grievances of the Chaos Demon Gods before their deaths, his personality became somewhat bloodthirsty and cruel.

He was clearly born in the Sea of Blood, a place that contained a trace of blood from almost every Chaos Demon God, yet he ended up walking the Path of Slaughter. One must know that to achieve the Dao through the Path of Slaughter, one must kill people, kill the Heaven, kill the Earth, and kill all living beings. At the very least, one had to slay a Saint to obtain the Primordial Chaos Dao Fruit.

Yet, Styx chose Hongjun's method of Severing Three Corpses. One must ask, how could a Quasi-Saint possibly kill a Saint? Later, he followed Nuwa's example by creating the Asura Clan, and then followed the Six Saints by establishing the Asura Sect. It could be said that his determination to seek the Dao was extremely firm. It was just that he had chosen the wrong path from the very beginning, and in the end, he could only rely on the phrase, "The Sea of Blood will never dry, Styx will never die!" to survive within the Sea of Blood.

Thinking of this, Styx couldn't help but sigh. The difficulty of seeking the Dao is far greater than ascending to the Azure Heaven! Since I have been brought into this world and possess such unique and advantageous conditions, it would be a sign of my incompetence if I didn't fight for the path of the Primordial Chaos!

We are currently at the beginning of the second Kalpa. The Primordial World is still under the supervision of the Great Dao, and the nascent Heavenly Dao is still being nurtured. It will likely not finish its gestation until the end of the seventh Kalpa, and it won't be able to fully take over the Primordial World until the middle of the ninth Kalpa. If I can attain the Primordial Chaos before then, I will have fewer constraints later on! Styx thought to himself.

However, the world has only been opened for one Kalpa. The Great Dao suppresses everything, and since I have not yet finished my own gestation, I cannot cultivate yet. I must wait for the Great Dao to slowly lift its seal. So, what should I do during this time?

I have it! Although my bloodline was nurtured by a trace of blood from each of the three thousand Chaos Demon Gods, the origin within it is too sparse, making it appear too chaotic and impure. In later generations, let alone inheriting the powerful physical body of the Chaos Demon Gods, I wouldn't even be able to compare to the Witch Clan or even some of the powerful Demon Race physical bodies.

I could only rely on "The Sea of Blood will never dry, Styx will never die" to contend with the great powers, and I had no notable achievements to speak of! Since that is the case, why don't I take advantage of the fact that my bloodline has not yet finished its gestation to directly strip away those impure bloodlines, leaving only the Pangu bloodline, which has the strongest affinity with the Primordial World?

The thought was there, but how to execute it was a major problem. After all, Styx was currently just a placenta and could not make any significant movements.

Fortunately! Heaven does not cut off all paths. In the end, Styx found a way. It was also fortunate that he had three companion Supreme Innate Spiritual Treasures. Companion Spiritual Treasures are born alongside an Innate Demon God and are almost one with the Innate Demon God itself, allowing them to be controlled quite easily with a thought.

The method Styx thought of was to use the Karma Red Lotus, an Innate Spiritual Treasure formed from a seed of the Chaos Green Lotus, to help himself strip away those impure bloodlines!

No sooner said than done. Styx first controlled the Sea of Blood Creation Great Array to continuously extract Blood Qi from the Sea of Blood to replenish himself. He then connected with the Red Lotus Karmic Fire within the Karma Red Lotus to burn the Styx Blood Fetus. At the same time, he used the trace of the Law of Blood he had inherited to assist the burning of the Red Lotus Karmic Fire, slowly stripping away his impure bloodlines!

It was fortunate that the Karma Red Lotus was Styx's companion spiritual treasure and was innately close to him. Furthermore, Styx had only just awakened his consciousness and had not yet incurred any causal karma. Otherwise, if someone else had tried to play around like this, they would likely have been burned to ashes by the Red Lotus Karmic Fire the very first moment!

Just like that, as time passed, strands of essence blood origin were slowly stripped from the Styx Blood Fetus, forming three thousand points of light around Styx. These were the very strands of blood from the three thousand Demon Gods that made up Styx's origin.

In this process, the Styx Blood Fetus also changed from its original chaotic and impure state, slowly becoming crystal clear. The appearance of the Styx Blood Fetus also gradually began to move closer to the Innate Dao Fetus among the Forty-Nine Dharma Forms of Pangu.

After all, Styx had only just awakened his consciousness, and his instincts were still closer to the human form from his previous life! Styx's consciousness also gradually sank into the insights brought about by the purification of his bloodline!

Time flies like an arrow, and the years pass by~ The long river of time continued to surge. While Styx was refining his bloodline, the evolution of the Primordial World was also constantly progressing. In the midst of this stillness, time slipped away quietly without anyone noticing...
