Styx Awakens

While the entire Great Wilderness lay silent, beneath a crimson sea in the northeastern Great Wilderness, within a space shrouded by a Formation.

A Twelfth-Grade Red Lotus burned with raging Karmic Fire. At the heart of the flames stood a blood-colored figure, from whom faint crimson threads occasionally drifted out. Around the figure floated three thousand drops of Chaos-colored blood of varying sizes, like stars filling the sky as they encircled him!

Those crimson threads slowly merged into different drops of blood. The Great Wilderness kept no count of years, and no one knew how long this process continued.

Until one day, no new blood threads emerged from the figure. The figure and the three thousand drops of essence blood gradually became more condensed. Strands of black impurities were occasionally expelled from them, only to be burned away by the Red Lotus Karmic Fire, until no trace of impurity was expelled from either the figure or the essence blood...

At this moment, the figure and the drops of blood had become incomparably solid. Within them appeared a handsome man with bright, star-like eyes and sharp brows. His long blood-red hair moved despite the absence of wind.

Three thousand drops of blood circled his body like three thousand crimson gems, spinning around him and adding a sinister charm to the man!

Suddenly, the man opened his eyes. It was as though a streak of light had flashed through the blood-red space, and this deathly silent place seemed to come alive at that very instant...

How long had it been? the man murmured softly. After a brief daze, he gradually regained clarity. This figure was none other than Styx of the Blood Sea.

As Styx awakened, the fiercely burning Red Lotus Karmic Fire gradually died out until it completely returned to the Lotus Platform. Styx gently stroked the Karma Red Lotus. "You have truly worked hard all these years." The Karma Red Lotus bobbed up and down, as though responding to Styx...

Next, Styx sat cross-legged atop the Karma Red Lotus and carefully examined his condition. After awakening in the Great Wilderness and receiving his inherited memories, Styx had immediately begun refining himself for the sake of his path, without even having time to understand the current state of the Great Wilderness. Now that he had awakened again, he had laid a solid foundation for himself. It was time to properly experience this newborn world and the changes within himself...

After sensing carefully, Styx realized that so much time had already passed. When he had first awakened, it had been the early stage of the second Tribulation. Now, it was already the late stage of the second Tribulation. Truly, cultivators knew no years; in the blink of an eye, seas turned into mulberry fields.

Over nearly an entire Tribulation, Styx's efforts had not been wasted. Although the burning of the Red Lotus Karmic Fire and the stripping away of the origins of three thousand Chaos Demon Gods had left his existing origin incomparably depleted.

Even with nourishment from the Blood Sea Origin and Blood Qi, it was still like a drop in the ocean. Yet although his origin was depleted, his fundamental nature had been elevated without limit. Styx could now truly be called part of Pangu's Orthodox Lineage. Though that orthodoxy was somewhat tenuous, bloodlines could not lie. Styx possessed genuine Pangu bloodline.

When he examined the inheritances in his mind again, he found that the once chaotic and jumbled memories had seemingly been organized into volumes, becoming clear and orderly. Furthermore, a fragmented inheritance of the Nine Revolutions Profound Origin Technique had appeared in his mind. It contained only a rough outline and the inheritances of the first and second revolutions. Though incomplete, Styx was incomparably thrilled...

This was because the Nine Revolutions Profound Origin Technique was the cultivation method practiced by Great God Pangu. Great God Pangu had cultivated it to the level of Half-Step Great Dao, only one step away from attaining the Great Dao.

Although Styx did not possess the complete Nine Revolutions Profound Origin Technique, by combining its outline and incomplete method with the inheritances of the other Demon Gods in his mind, he could completely create a cultivation method suited to himself. After all, what suited him was best!

Beyond that were the three thousand drops of blood circling Styx, condensed from the Chaos Demon God Origin. Styx had originally intended to refine them all into pure origin Blood Qi to replenish his own origin. But upon further thought, these were the origins of three thousand Chaos Demon Gods. Though each contained only a trace, they might prove immensely useful in the future. Thus, he stored them all away and nurtured them within his acupoints!

After carefully comprehending everything, Styx began sorting through the inherited memories in his mind. He discovered that while these memories were numerous and contained something from nearly every Demon God, they were incomparably mixed and fragmented, with almost none being complete. Only the Law of Blood, Law of Avatar, Law of Slaughter, and Law of Soul were somewhat more abundant. This was likely why Styx of later generations chiefly cultivated slaughter and created 1.296 billion Blood God Sons...
