As the gathering place for all negative substances in the Great Wilderness World—filth, Blood Qi, Slayer Qi, evil qi, and the like—the Nether Blood Sea, coupled with the pull of the Sea of Blood Reincarnation Great Array, instinctively drew the True Spirits of all Great Wilderness Living Beings after death. The death qi, Grievance Qi, and Slayer Qi they carried were likewise drawn into the Blood Sea. After years of study, Old Ancestor Styx had basically grasped the operating principles of the Sea of Blood Reincarnation Great Array. At its core, the Formation channels of the Sea of Blood Reincarnation Great Array were connected to the Great Wilderness' Earth veins. Thus, the Blood Qi of Living Beings who perished in the Great Wilderness would also gather in the Blood Sea under the pull of the Earth veins. The Blood Sea would digest it and transform it into positive energy. Therefore, Old Ancestor Styx, who occupied the Nether Blood Sea, could accumulate quite a bit of Merit over time merely through the Blood Sea's instinctive pull. In the original history, Old Ancestor Styx had perhaps lost the ability to transform it because the Blood Sea became contaminated by the impure mixed qi—such as Grievance Qi and Slayer Qi—carried by Living Beings. That was why he eventually vanished from the public eye in the Great Wilderness!

Looking across the first batch of Innate Divine Beings—the likes of Sanqing and Zhen Yuanzi—they had all been born with innate missions. So long as they followed the proper course, they would all have had bright futures, just like Zhen Yuanzi becoming the Ancestor of Earth Immortals. Yet the Heavenly Dao was partial. It first played the Innate Divine Beings for fools, cutting off their possibility of Law Attainment Dao, then Old Ancestor Hongjun schemed against them and had them cultivate the incomplete Three Corpses Dao. In the end, every one of them fell short of greatness and could not settle for less!

As an Innate Divine Being born from the Nether Blood Sea, Old Ancestor Styx's innate mission was to operate the Blood Sea, cleanse the Great Wilderness of filthy mixed qi, and transform it into pure spiritual qi. But if the Blood Sea were allowed to remain polluted like this, that authority would eventually become impossible to maintain! Even the rank of the Nether Blood Sea would decline, leading it to be reduced to the point where Houtu could divide off half of it to establish the Underworld!

At this thought, Old Ancestor Styx decided to do something to avoid walking the path of the original Space-Time again! Looking at the few True Spirits struggling in the Blood Sea, his eyes suddenly lit up. He recalled a Magic Treasure that appeared in countless novels—so righteous it became sinister, its Purple Qi so dense it turned black, feared by countless people yet coveted by all: the "Human Emperor Banner."

"Hehe! As a transmigrator, how could I possibly lack what others have?" Old Ancestor Styx waved his hand and drew several True Spirits over, studying them carefully before returning to the Blood Sea Small World. First, he took nine branches each from the Blood God Fruit Tree, Ghost Soul Treasure Tree, Void Nether Treasure Tree, and World Tree, along with countless leaves, and began refining them. Old Ancestor Styx decided to first use the branches and materials from these Supreme Innate Spiritual Treasures to refine nine Main Banners, guarding the eight directions and center of the Nether Blood Sea! Then he would use the twigs and leaves of those Acquired Spiritual Roots or supreme Spiritual Roots to refine three hundred thousand Auxiliary Banners, assisting the nine Main Banners in absorbing the newly formed baleful resentment and evil qi, as well as fragmented True Spirits, surging in from the Great Wilderness!

By utilizing the Blood God Fruit Tree's ability to absorb Baleful Resentment Aura and transform it into pure Blood Qi, the Ghost Soul Treasure Tree's ability to absorb and nurture True Spirits, the Void Nether Treasure Tree's spatial transmission ability, and the World Tree's ability to open up Small Worlds, he optimized them all. Taking advantage of the exceptional materials, he successfully refined nine Human Emperor Main Banners of Houtian Supreme Treasure grade. Each banner contained a Small World. Using the Blood God Fruit Tree's power to transform Blood Qi and the Ghost Soul Treasure Tree's power to nurture souls, combining the complementary abilities of the two treasure trees, they transformed an aura suitable for True Spirits to survive in. Together with the Small Worlds opened by the World Tree's branches and leaves, they successfully established nine Ghost Soul Small Worlds! After testing the functions of these nine Main Banners, Old Ancestor Styx felt that they should not be called Human Emperor Banners. They needed a different name!

First, humanity had not yet appeared, and Old Ancestor Styx did not wish to become entangled in Karma for no reason. Second, the abilities of these nine Main Banners were not something ordinary Human Emperor Banners could compare to. They could use the Void Nether Treasure Tree's spatial power to automatically draw fragmented True Spirits across space. They could also process the blood fiendish Grievance Qi in the Blood Sea, supply the Living Beings absorbed into the banners, nurture their souls, and repair fragmented souls. Under the nourishment of Blood Qi and soul qi, these True Spirits could even slowly grow!

Thus, Old Ancestor Styx decided to discard the name Human Emperor Banner and instead name them Spirit Nurturing Banners after the characteristics of the Main Banners!
