Styx searched through the inheritances in his mind and found methods for Bloodline Refinement and strengthening the Primordial Spirit. With the fruits as an aid, he began refining them...
As time flowed on, another Eon passed in the blink of an eye. Old Ancestor Styx successfully refined two fruits and awakened from cultivation. Truly, there were no Years in the mountains—before he knew it, a thousand years had gone by...
In his past life, the time it took to refine a single fruit would have been enough for a civilization to rise and fall several times over! After his sigh, Old Ancestor Styx carefully examined himself. With the help of the two fruits, his physical realm had stabilized at the peak of Mid Heavenly Immortal; as long as heaven and earth's suppression loosened even slightly, he could break through. Even his bloodline Origin had quietly improved. It had to be said that although Old Ancestor Styx had removed all bloodlines from himself apart from Pangu bloodline, purifying it and eliminating the suppression tainted within it, this place had ultimately been formed from Great God Pangu's navel. The Pangu bloodline within Styx's own bloodline was merely a trace of navel blood from Great God Pangu. Never mind comparing it to an Ancestral Witch—even a Great Witch's bloodline might be purer than Old Ancestor Styx's.
Yet after this refinement, coupled with the aid of the Chaos Demon Gods' inheritances, Old Ancestor Styx's Bloodline Power had basically reached the level of a Great Witch. His future cultivation would gain yet another helping hand!
His Primordial Spirit had also undergone tremendous changes. It became more solid, and the range of his spiritual perception increased by more than Thirty Percent. Most crucially, Old Ancestor Styx could feel that his Primordial Spirit had become clearer and purer. Such purity was of immense benefit to cultivation. When meditating, it was easier to keep one's heart tranquil and one's mind at peace; one's understanding of the Dao would become clearer, and even one's comprehension ability seemed to improve somewhat!
Old Ancestor Styx was greatly satisfied with this improvement. Setting aside his thoughts, he harvested a batch of the matured spiritual treasures within the Formation Space. Then he stared at the formation and thought, Should I go out and take a look? See what the Primordial Heaven and Earth is like now!
But Styx promptly dismissed the idea. With his current Early Heavenly Immortal cultivation, never mind going to see the Primordial Heaven and Earth—he was afraid he could not even leave the Blood Sea. Though the Blood Sea, having nurtured him, would not actively harm Old Ancestor Styx, he had not forgotten that the Chaos Demon Gods Great God Pangu had slain at the beginning of creation, while their physical bodies had perished and their True Spirits had fallen silent, still had their Grievance Qi and Sha Qi filling the Primordial Heaven and Earth. If he carelessly ran into any of it, would he not be finished on the spot? Thus, Old Ancestor Styx decisively abandoned any thought of leaving!
Still, even if he was not going out, he could study this formation properly. His cultivation could not grow any further for the moment anyway, so he could study one of the hundred arts of cultivation and treat it as comprehending the Dao!
As Old Ancestor Styx's accompanying formation, the Blood Sea Creation Array held absolutely nothing back from him.
Thus, Old Ancestor Styx began studying the Blood Sea Creation Array against the knowledge of formations contained within those fragmented Chaos Demon God inheritances in his mind...
As he studied the formation, time silently slipped away. Old Ancestor Styx discovered that his accompanying formation was far from simple. Not only did it contain functions of concealment, defense, and purification, but it also contained a trace of the Power of Creation transformed into a nurturing force. Naturally—this formation was the place that had nurtured Styx, so possessing the Power of Creation was only normal! At the same time, Old Ancestor Styx sensed that this formation seemed to be merely one part of an even greater formation. But with his current shallow cultivation, he could not pursue it any further!
Through his research into the Blood Sea Creation Array, Styx found that his mastery of Array Dao was rapidly improving, and even his realm had reached Late True Immortal.
After all, formations were originally arranged by borrowing Heaven and Earth Great Momentum, so they could naturally help one comprehend heaven and earth. Old Ancestor Styx continued contemplating the formation until he felt that he could no longer improve in the short term. Only then did he end this period of secluded cultivation...
Based on his understanding of formations, Old Ancestor Styx also began organizing the spiritual treasures within the Formation Space, allowing them to strengthen the formation while growing better themselves.
After a thorough reorganization, the Blood Qi within the Formation Space quietly increased by Thirty Percent. Even the spiritual qi and the Power of Creation grew considerably, while the spiritual treasures themselves seemed more vibrant and full of life...
Old Ancestor Styx took out the Karmic Fire Red Lotus and placed it where the Styx Blood Fetus had originally been. He divided the Power of Creation produced by the Great Formation into four portions: the largest portion was used to nourish the Karmic Fire Red Lotus, while two equal portions nourished the Blood God Fruit Tree and the Ghost Soul Treasure Tree. The faint trace that overflowed was used to nourish the other spiritual treasures. At the same time, he made the Karmic Fire Red Lotus the new formation core. While enhancing the formation's power, it used Red Lotus Karmic Fire to purify some of the lingering Filth Qi within the formation!
As the Twelve-grade Karmic Fire Red Lotus had been nurtured from a Lotus Seed of the Chaos Green Lotus, it could be called both a Supreme Innate Spiritual Treasure and a Top-grade Innate Spiritual Root!
In many novels from his past life, the Merit Golden Lotus had countless Lotus Seeds. There was no reason the Karmic Fire Red Lotus could only be used as a spiritual treasure. Old Ancestor Styx searched the formation and found much Styx Blood Soil, a top-grade earth-element spiritual treasure. He also discovered Yellow Springs Blood Water, a top-grade water-element spiritual treasure, in a small stream.
These two spiritual treasures might be harmful rather than beneficial to other spiritual roots in the outside world, but to spiritual roots born within the Blood Sea, they were the greatest treasures.
Styx first made a Pool of Yellow Springs Blood Water around the Twelve-grade Karmic Fire Red Lotus, then covered its bottom with Styx Blood Soil. He plucked the twelve mature Lotus Seeds nurtured within the Karmic Fire Red Lotus and casually tossed them into the Pool. The Karmic Fire Red Lotus gently trembled up and down, expressing its delight...
