The Battle in the Blood Sea

In the Heaven Realm, Donghua's angry attack stirred the hearts of countless people, who were all wondering what had happened to make Donghua suppress Chang Xi and Xing Tian.

But at this moment, Donghua didn't care what others thought. Instead, he was deep in thought, considering whether what Houtu said was true or false, and whether it would actually happen.

After all, having a child is no simple matter, especially given Donghua's current status and position.

The main problem is that Donghua isn't sure Houtu, that woman, will actually use the child to control him for the sake of the Witch Clan.

After much thought, it seemed impossible. Unless Houtu had planned all of this from the very beginning, it would be difficult for Houtu to succeed. After all, at their level, whether they could give birth to a child depended on timing; the fusion of the Great Dao did not guarantee the birth of a child.

But Donghua dared not gamble!

It wasn't that Donghua was truly afraid of this, but rather that it would complicate his simple relationship with Houtu and involve two opposing forces, especially the Witch Clan.

Thinking of this, Donghua shook his head helplessly and looked at Houyi, who was standing there in a daze.

At this moment Houyi's spirit dissipated, leaving only his physical body; in a sense, Houyi was already dead.

Because as long as Houyi's true form is destroyed, his account will be completely deleted from the Heavenly Dao's records, and the Heavenly Dao will arrange for Houyi to be reincarnated again. The specific time depends on the person's luck and merits.

However, bringing Houyi back to life is simple for him; all he needs to do is gather Houyi's scattered true spirit within the Heavenly Dao and reintroduce it into his body.

However, the price of resurrection is that Donghua must bear the karma of Houyi, that is, the karma between him and the Golden Crow and the demon race.

These causes and effects were indeed significant for Houyi, but insignificant to Donghua; they were like a drop in the ocean to him, barely perceptible.

Donghua waved his hand, summoning Houyi to his side. Then, with a flick of his finger, the Heavenly Dao Power pierced through time and space. Within the Great Dao, Donghua used Houyi's true form as a guide, gathering all of his scattered true spirit together.

True spirit is formed, primordial spirit manifests!

Donghua merged a wisp of his true spirit and primordial soul into Houyi's true body, and then used the Hunyuan Power to perfectly fuse the two with the physical body.

"Chang'e!"

Houyi had just woken up when he immediately sat up, calling out Chang'e's name.

After fully realizing what had happened, Donghua pointed a finger and transmitted the recent events to Houyi.

Houyi was stunned after receiving the memories. He hadn't expected that such a big thing had happened in the Primordial Wilderness during his slumber.

The Lich King was defeated and retreated. Donghua unified the prehistoric world, established the Supreme Heavenly Court, Attain Hunyuan Dao Primordial Wilderness, became the Heavenly Emperor, and the Five Saints returned to their positions.

After pondering for Houyi, Hou Yi respectfully bowed to Donghua and said, "Yi greets the Great Heavenly Venerate and thanks the Great Heavenly Venerate for saving my life!"

Donghua hummed in agreement and said, "Now I have accepted the karma on your body, but your hatred for the demon race still exists. You killed eight of the Ten Golden Crow, and the other one died because of you. So, how about changing your name?"

Houyi pondered Donghua's suggestion for a long time, then shook his head and slowly said, "Thank you for your kindness, Great Heavenly Venerate Venerable, but Houyi is Houyi, and I will not change because of these things. If the demon race comes seeking revenge, I will accept it all and fear no one."

Donghua said, "You can decide this yourself. I hope you can have a fresh start. If you don't want to return to the Witch Clan, you can stay in the Heavenly Court, and I will arrange a position for you."

At this point, Donghua paused, looked at Houyi teasingly, and said, "What are your thoughts on the matter between you and Chang Xi? Although she has regained her memories of her Previous Life, her feelings for you remain unchanged. After all, her personality is primarily focused on Chang'e."

When Chang'e was mentioned, Houyi seemed very uncomfortable. He had rushed to the Heaven Realm without considering the consequences, but now, upon reflection, he realized that their separation was the best outcome; otherwise, it would have only brought endless pain.

Houyi smiled bitterly and said, "I don't know, I don't know how to face her. Perhaps it was the best outcome for her to leave back then."

Hearing Houyi say this, Donghua frowned slightly. If you love someone, then love them! Be bold and be together! What's there to hesitate about?

Chang Xi has been in the Netherworld for so long, and the Witch Clan has accepted her existence. Yet you, Houyi, are hesitant and indecisive.

Donghua said nothing more, and with a wave of his hand, he directly slammed Houyi into the Moon Star, instantly sealing him inside, where he wouldn't be able to leave for some time.

"I'm soft-hearted, so I'll help you out!"

Blood Sea!

Inside the main hall, the banquet had entered its final stage, with representatives from various factions presenting their congratulatory gifts, Minghe had Brahma and the others accept one by one.

"Thank you all for coming from afar to celebrate with me, Minghe. Thank you all!" Minghe picked up the wine cup in front of him and drank it all in one gulp.

He then continued, "Since I began my cultivation, I have experienced various tribulations, and only now have I reached the pinnacle of my practice. Today, I am honored to share some of my cultivation insights with you all. If there are any shortcomings, I hope you fellow Daoists will point them out so that we can all progress together!"

After the greetings, Minghe began to preach, and the sound of the Great Dao echoed in the hall, never ceasing.

Various great principles, primarily based on the Slaughter Great Dao, including the Five Elements, Yin-Yang, Creation, Life and Death, and Reincarnation, lingered within the hall, eventually transforming into countless red lotuses that bloomed within the hall and then flew out, creating strange echoes of the Great Dao above the entire Blood Sea.

This scene lasted for eighty-one years, until it finally ended with a roar from the Minghe.

Just as everyone was still immersed in the Great Dao, two figures landed on the Blood Sea. They were Houtu and Xuan Ming, who came from the Netherworld.

As soon as Houtu arrived above the Blood Sea, the entire Blood Sea began to churn, as if cheering and jumping for joy to welcome its master.

Houtu released the Reincarnation Great Dao without any hesitation. The power of reincarnation covered the Blood Sea, and the endless Blood Sea surged and rolled. Countless remnant souls flocked to it, instinctively clinging to the Reincarnation Law.

At this moment, Minghe also sensed Houtu's arrival. His originally joyful mood instantly turned extremely gloomy. He still couldn't forget the oppressive feeling that Houtu had given him last time.

"Do you really think our ancestor is easy to bully?"

Minghe snorted coldly and flew straight out of the main hall, instantly arriving above the Blood Sea.

"Houtu, what are you doing here? The Blood Sea doesn't welcome you!"

Minghe's face was gloomy, the Twelve Grades Karma Red Lotus beneath his feet was blooming with karmic flames, and he carried the Abi Yuantu Sword and the Yuantu Sword on his back. His body was filled with sword energy, ready to make a move at any moment.

Houtu said disdainfully, "Minghe, look at this Blood Sea. From what aspect can you tell that it doesn't welcome me?"

Minghe was speechless. What could he say? He could only say that the Blood Sea was disappointing. It was clearly his territory and training ground, but it acted like a sycophant in front of Houtu.

"Houtu, enough nonsense! This is my Daoist temple. You are not welcome here. Please leave, or don't blame me for disregarding the hospitality of those who listen to the Dao at the Purple Sky Palace!"

Just as the two were talking, all the people who had come to congratulate Minghe on achieving his peak arrived above the Blood Sea, watching the scene before them with expressions of schadenfreude.

Houtu remained unperturbed by Minghe's aggressive advances, for she had come here specifically to cause trouble, and no matter what, she could not avoid Minghe; a battle was inevitable.

Seeing Houtu's mocking expression, Minghe was instantly enraged and immediately attacked.

But just as Minghe's Abi Yuantu and the Primordial Slaughter Sword took flight, Houtu on the opposite side launched her attack.

Her beautiful face was calm, but the fighting spirit around her was terrifying. Compared to the endless killing intent of the Minghe, Houtu's fighting spirit was pure and incomparably chilling.

Houtu clenched her right fist, gathering the power of reincarnation, but she didn't Ancestor Witch True Body; it was just an ordinary punch.

However, this punch perfectly embodies the Reincarnation Great Dao, with all things and all paths of reincarnation seemingly contained within this single punch.

The power of reincarnation transformed into a massive black hole above the Blood Sea, instantly striking out like the Minghe. The entire Blood Sea surged ceaselessly under the force of this single punch.

Minghe was shocked by what he saw. Although they were both at the Peak Quasi-Saint, he could feel that he was no match for Houtu. That punch was terrifying!

He immediately unleashed the Yuantu Abi Twin Swords, the Slaughter Great Dao carrying thousands of other Great Daos, which evolved into a sky full of sword energy. The powerful Slaughter Great Dao made the Blood Sea quiet down, as if it had been frozen.

The Minghe's attack stirred up Blood Sea, and towering waves appeared behind it, with sword intent and sword energy all merging into the giant waves of the Blood Sea.

Ten thousand sword energies pierced through, the Slaughter Great Dao combined with the Supreme Treasure of Slaughter, the power of the Innate Spiritual Treasure was brought to its extreme.

The surging Blood Sea of blood carried endless sword energy toward Houtu's attack, as Minghe wanted to break through Houtu's attack in one blow.

"Buzz!"

The moment Minghe's attack touched Houtu's Reincarnation Black Hole, it was instantly swallowed up; both the Blood Sea and the sword energy were completely reincarnated by the black hole.

Houtu smiled disdainfully, then leaped into the air, instantly transforming into her Ancestor Witch True Body.

Compared to the last time, Houtu's true form is much more powerful this time, because it is the most primordial God-Demon True Body.

The ultimate physical power caused fluctuations in the surrounding space, and the heavens and earth trembled.

Houtu waved her hands, and the black hole of reincarnation in the Sky Vault transformed into five black holes. Then, the infinite power of reincarnation evolved into a fist imprint and pressed down on the Minghe.

Meanwhile, Minghe was still in shock. Having experienced the last battle, he knew that Houtu had this skill, and he had even studied this divine power specifically, which was to combine sword energy with the power of the Blood Sea.

They thought they could break the black hole of Houtu around Houtu, but now it seems to have no effect whatsoever.

Minghe dared not think too much. Stepping on the Twelve Grades Karma Red Lotus, he lunged forward, brandishing his twin swords, and then charged towards Houtu.

With the Great Dao Power accompanying him, the Great Dao of slaughter, creation, Yin-Yang Five Elements, and the five elements converged, and the Yuantu and Abi Swords Bi swords displayed boundless sword energy, forming a Shura world.

The Twelve Grades Karma Red Lotus beneath its feet bloomed, releasing boundless karmic fire power, which, attached to the world of sword energy, charged towards Houtu.

Wherever it passed, it suppressed everything. Houtu's attack was also broken. The five reincarnation black holes were destroyed by the Minghe, and then it continued to attack Houtu.

"Houtu servant Houtu, retreat at once, or today this Blood Sea will be your final resting place!"

Houtu smiled disdainfully, ignoring Minghe. A longbow appeared in her hand, and she drew it to its fullest extent. The Great Dao Power locked onto Minghe, and then she shot an arrow.

The arrow formed from the power of reincarnation pierced across the Blood Sea, and with a single arrow, it seemed as if the heavens and the sky had been shattered.

Left hand: Earth; Right hand: Reincarnation!

Both Great Daos were fully enhanced upon the Divine Bow, followed by several other Great Daos, especially the Daos of Time and Space, which have now reached their peak in Houtu's hands.

He can draw his bow as full as the moon!

Arrows formed from the Great Dao Power shot towards the Minghe River.

Those watching could clearly see that Houtu's face turned pale after she fired those three arrows.

But the Minghe on the other side couldn't care less about any of that; he felt the threat of death from Houtu's three arrows.

You'll die!

You really can die!

The Minghe's immense magical power activated the Twelve Grades Karma Red Lotus, while the Great Dao Power permeated the Yuantu Abi Twin Swords, forming a world domain of power.

At the same time, three thousand figures of Minghe appeared simultaneously in the Blood Sea, each wielding a spiritual treasure and mobilizing the power of the sea of the Blood Sea to empower Minghe.

Houtu's first arrow and Minghe's Yuantu Abi Twin Swords collided above the Blood Sea, instantly stirring up boundless waves.

"Splash!"

The surging Blood Sea was split in two, and in that instant, countless lonely souls vanished.

"Boom!"

With a resounding echo of the Great Dao, the Minghe's Yuantu Abi Twin Swords, were blasted away by Houtu, and the world of sword slaughter dissipated.

At the same time, Houtu's second arrow attack arrived, heading straight for the Minghe.

Minghe immediately channeled his magic power, activating the Twelve Grades Karma Red Lotus. Karmic fire bloomed above the Blood Sea, its enormous form pulling Houtu's arrow attack directly into the lotus platform world, where it was then suppressed.

Upon seeing this, Minghe burst into laughter, exclaiming, "Red Lotus is truly amazing!"

But before Minghe could rejoice for long, Houtu's third arrow attack arrived.

This arrow is a deadly arrow of reincarnation!

Using the power of space and time, they traversed endless space and time to attack the Minghe, seemingly existing neither in this space nor in this time.

Minghe clearly felt the power of the arrow approaching, but he didn't know how to deal with it.

But his intuition told him he couldn't wait any longer, or he would surely be pierced by an arrow.

Although he didn't know how to deal with it, Minghe mobilized all his magical power and the Great Dao Power.

The power of the Blood Sea surged into the sky, gathering around the Minghe, but he still felt it was not safe, so he instantly burned his own true blood and magic power.

"Boundless in all directions!"

A vast Asura world emerged around the Minghe River, where sword energy surged and immortals and demons clashed.

"Boom!"

Houtu's third arrow finally reached Minghe. This arrow carried immense power; empowered by the power of time and space, the Arrow of Reincarnation transcended time and space, directly ignoring Minghe's outermost defenses.

An arrow struck the Asura World of the Minghe, instantly shattering all power and reversing the cycle of world power. The Minghe's defenses appeared very fragile in the face of this arrow.

"Puff!"

An arrow pierced his chest!

P. S.: I'm very sorry for the two-day hiatus.

I thought the Lunar New Year wouldn't have any impact, but I was really busy, and I even drank too much twice.
