Chapter 108 Havoc in Heaven (Styx Version)
At that moment, an incomparably terrifying killing intent surged forth. In an instant, the stars shifted and the heavens shifted. Within the Thirty-Three Heavens, whether it was the great supernatural beings at the Quasi-Saint realm, the Great Luo Golden Immortals, or the various beings of the demon race, all felt as if they had fallen into an ice cave because of this terrifying killing intent, and even felt that they could not even muster the thought of resistance.
It was Styx, who, along with Zhunti and Jieyin, had already arrived at the top of the Thirty-Three Heavens, confronting the Three Pure Ones, Dijun, Taiyi, Fuxi, and Nuwa.
At that very moment, something that delighted the powerful beings of the demon race happened: Taiyi successfully severed his third corpse, becoming the first Quasi-Saint with three corpses in the prehistoric world besides Hongjun!
This unexpected turn of events brought great joy to the Heavenly Court, especially to Emperor Jun.
Styx watched this scene expressionlessly, but in his heart—he didn't really take this Quasi-Saint of the Three Corpses seriously.
If he wanted to, with his peak cultivation as a Primordial Golden Immortal, capturing and severing the Three Corpses would be a piece of cake, making him a Quasi-Saint of the Three Corpses. The reason he didn't do that was because he didn't want to use an innate spiritual treasure to sever the next corpse.
To use that spiritual treasure to sever the corpse, he really needed to make some preparations, after all, this was something that even Hongjun, the creator of the Three Corpses Dao, had not been able to do.
However, right now, the most important thing is to perform this play well, make the Three Pure Ones, Emperor Jun and others believe it to be true, and also push Zhunti and Jieyin to the opposite side of the Heavenly Court.
After all, given Zhunti and Jieyin's style of doing things and their goals, they are in great conflict with the strongest force in the East. However, they are always cautious and will not take action unless necessary. Therefore, Styx needs to give them a push.
"Fellow Daoist Di Jun, what is the meaning of this?" Styx looked at Di Jun in front of him and said in a cold tone.
Anyone could tell that Styx was "suppressing his anger" at that moment.
Zhunti and Jieyin both sighed inwardly; at this moment, they felt extremely uneasy.
They knew that Styx's intention to scheme against the Three Pure Ones while simultaneously helping them was genuine, but this time, it seemed Styx had lost.
This situation—where one second they were immersed in the joy of becoming the Heavenly Emperor, and the next they were jolted awake from their dream to find reality even worse than before—broke Zhunti and Jieyin's defenses.
Why is it worse than before? Because the Three Pure Ones saw that they were now standing with the River Styx!
Since the Three Pure Ones knew about Styx's scheme, and even turned the tables on Styx and established their own Heavenly Court, how could they not know why Zhunti and Jieyin had come here with Styx?
Now that they know, given the nature of the Three Pure Ones, how could they let them go? They only hate the Western beings, for their actions were caused by Zhunti...
He was implicated in this high-stakes gamble.
"Stop beating around the bush, Fellow Daoist Dijun has already told us all about your scheme!"
"Minghe, to avenge your personal grudge, you actually want to use the power of the Wu and Yao races, and even dragged Zhunti and Jieyin into it. Hmph, do you really think those two guys beside you can be of any use?" Yuanshi looked at Minghe in front of him and said angrily. The Samadhi True Fire burned in his Dharma Eye. His words, under the blessing of the two Quasi-Saints and the position of the Heavenly Emperor, pressed down on Minghe and the other two. This move already had a bit of the meaning of words becoming law.
Now that things have come to this, he can no longer be a fence-sitter for Di Jun, obediently let Minghe hold a grudge, and then charge into battle.
However, he didn't wrong Di Jun in this way; he was just stating what Di Jun had done.
Zhunti and Jieyin's expressions changed drastically, and Yuanshi was getting serious.
The attack, empowered by the power of the Primordial Lord, dissipated into the wind before it even reached Styx and the others, without causing a ripple. This made the eyes of the Primordial Lord and the others narrow down. Zhunti and Jieyin, having escaped death, gained a new understanding of Styx's methods.
The gap between a Quasi-Saint with two Corpses and a Quasi-Saint with one Corpse is also enormous. Yuan Shi's move just now not only contained the magic power and the Great Dao of a Quasi-Saint with two Corpses, but also the blessing of the Heavenly Emperor's position. Zhun Ti and Jie Yin really had no confidence in blocking it. Yet, such an attack was easily neutralized by Styx.
Even Zhunti and Jieyin couldn't see how the Styx River neutralized Yuanshi's attack.
"Di Jun didn't lie to me, he really is close to this realm." Yuan Shi knew best about his attack just now, and the Styx River was indeed a good technique.
"Di Jun, I was so sincere, but I never expected to receive such a reward. You really have some tricks up your sleeve."
"How will you explain this cause and effect to me?" Styx asked Dijun.
"Hmph, give us an explanation! Today you're the one who should give us an explanation!" Taiyi was furious upon hearing this. He had just severed his three corpses and reached a minor peak in his cultivation. He was at his most confident. Although Styx's killing intent was fierce, he was protected by the Chaos Bell and was not affected. Naturally, he did not take Styx seriously and his awe of Styx had diminished considerably.
You, Styx, are close to becoming a sage, while I, Taiyi, am a quasi-sage with three corpses, also close to the realm of a sage. Let's see whose approach to becoming a sage is more powerful.
"Arrogant!" Styx uttered two words calmly, and with a slight wave of his hand, the boundless chaos was drawn into the Thirty-Three Heavens, heading straight for Taiyi.
This chaos is not the disordered chaos within chaos, but a method empowered by the great magic of the Styx River. Its offensive power is unimaginable to the world. Upon seeing this, Taiyi hurriedly shook the Chaos Bell, trying to freeze time and space and block the Styx River's attack.
But within this chaos lies the immense power of the Styx River!
The standoff lasted only a moment, before the other Heavenly Court powers could react, space and time shattered, the Chaos Bell was overturned, and Styx grabbed Taiyi in his palm.
This attack even forced Taiyi back to his original form.
No matter how much Taiyi struggled, even using the divine power of the True Fire of the Sun, he could not do anything to Styx. Styx was able to control him with just his physical strength, and the True Fire of the Sun could not burn Styx even slightly.
After all, this physical body can absorb and control chaos.
Chaos was opened up into a realm by the Styx River using the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, trapping Taiyi. Then, the Styx River released its grip.
When Taiyi saw that Styx had loosened his grip, he didn't bother to restore his innate Dao body. Instead, he used the form of a three-legged golden crow and activated the Golden Crow Transformation Rainbow Technique, trying to break free from Styx's grasp and return to the Thirty-Three Heavens. However, in the end, he could only spin around in Styx's palm and could not escape Styx's grasp no matter what.
This move was made casually by Styx, and it was similar to how the Buddha used his palm to control Sun Wukong. Although Taiyi's cultivation was not comparable to that of the fledgling Sun Wukong, Styx was also much stronger than the Buddha.
Seeing Taiyi's pathetic state, struggling to break free no matter what, and being toyed with like a spirit toying with its mount or pet, Dijun couldn't help but react.
"Release Taiyi! Today is the first day of the Heavenly Court's establishment. The Heavenly Dao and the Dao Ancestor have both recognized it. Do you intend to commit violence at this moment?!"
