Yes.
In any case, they cannot remain silent or even refuse entry to a powerful being of Styx's caliber who comes to visit.
Before anyone else could become a saint before Styx, in this era where the Dao Ancestor has already merged with the Dao, Styx is actually the number one person in the primordial world.
Even disregarding the opponent's important identities as the Primordial Ancestor, the Ancestor of Ghost Immortals, and the Ancestor of Earth Immortals, and considering their cunning and scheming—which is so profound that one dares not contemplate it too closely, for contemplation would shatter one's Dao heart—
Okay, it can't be excluded.
As everyone was discussing, suddenly, a terrifying pressure swept over them, causing all the powerful demons in the Thirty-Three Heavens to change their expressions. The pressure was not particularly strong, unlike the malevolent aura of the Witch Clan that seemed to devour people completely; it was much gentler, but it made them feel like mayflies on a high mountain, unable to muster the slightest thought of resistance.
Boundless chaos swept into the Thirty-Three Heavens, where the chaotic and disordered elements of earth, water, wind, and fire overflowed, causing many Great Luo Golden Immortals to involuntarily take a few steps back.
They could go anywhere in the chaos, but the chaos that had now been swept up in the Thirty-Three Heavens gave them a very strange feeling, as if their lives would be in danger if they touched it.
No, the Thirty-Three Heavens is a blessed land evolved from the primordial world. Without the intervention of a great supernatural being, how could Chaos have been drawn into it?
Suddenly, various colored lights flickered in the chaos.
There was a Taoist priest standing on a twelve-petaled red lotus of karmic fire. Karmic fire burned fiercely around the lotus platform, making the red lotus look beautiful. Chaos mist arose all over his Taoist robe, making him seem as if he was covered in chaos, making it impossible to see his face. Chaos, which all living beings in the primordial world would avoid, now submitted to him.
Auspicious clouds gradually enveloped this world, and five-colored radiance illuminated the heavens. On the golden wheel of Daoist inscriptions, thousands of Daoist inscriptions evolved, resounding throughout the universe along with the eight-tone celestial music. Furthermore, boundless merits shone brightly alongside the golden wheel of Daoist inscriptions, even obscuring the light of the sun.
Within the chaos, the Thirty-Six Heavens surrounded the newcomer. Under the influence of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, worlds were born and destroyed. The endless earth, water, wind, and fire were organized by the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth into small worlds, which then suddenly vanished, endlessly repeating the cycle.
Such a grand display inspires awe and reverence.
Seeing the figure of Styx emerging from the void, Di Jun, Tai Yi, Fu Xi, and Nuwa were all filled with mixed feelings.
Without a doubt, they were all of the same generation as Styx, but at this moment, Styx gave them the feeling that they could not catch up with him and could only look up at him from afar until the day when he could no longer be seen.
At this moment, although Styx's entourage was grand, it was different from that of the Three Pure Ones. Even the most arrogant Taiyi had no temper with it, because the other party's grand scene was truly supported by his earth-shattering magical power!
Whether it is the thirty-six heavens in the chaos, or the heavenly auspicious clouds, the golden wheel of Dao text, the golden light of merit, or the countless small worlds that are born and die in the chaos, they are all symbols of his magic power, cultivation, and supernatural abilities. At this moment, Di Jun looked at the Styx River in front of him. This supreme being with the heart of a supreme being looked at the Styx River in front of him and asked himself, but he did not know what he was thinking.
Jealousy? With his magnanimity and composure, he wouldn't stoop to that level.
To be honest, Styx at this moment is more deserving of the title of "quasi-saint" than him. This is the kind of demeanor and cultivation that a great supernatural being who is close to a saint should have.
No need for a host of immortals to follow him, one person can hold the fort!
This is what he wants to become. Although Styx has not yet shown any desire for or ambition for power in the primordial world, the Heavenly Emperor in his mind should at least have such majesty!
"If I had such cultivation, I wouldn't have been humiliated by the Ancestral Witches." The battle in the Thirty-Three Heavens where he was besieged by the Ancestral Witches was a lifelong disgrace for Taiyi. He was born with the Chaos Bell in his arms and took form on the Sun Star. In the countless years before, he had always had the heart of an invincible person. However, he was helpless against the combined attack of Dijiang and Zhujiuyin. How could such a proud being as Taiyi tolerate this?
Fuxi looked at Nuwa, hoping to find the answer he wanted in his sister's eyes, but Nuwa was also confused at the moment.
What puzzled her was not why the River Styx was so powerful, but that she seemed to see no hope of surpassing it.
As a disciple of the Dao Ancestor and a great supernatural being possessing the Primordial Purple Qi, Nuwa, who was determined to attain sainthood, constantly comprehended the method of severing the three corpses. It can be said that Nuwa had an expectation of how strong she would be after severing the three corpses. After all, she had already become a quasi-saint with two corpses by establishing the merit of the demon race.
However—even if she were to sever another corpse and break through to the realm of Quasi-Saint of the Three Corpses, she would still find it difficult to match Styx's current cultivation level.
If one were to become a saint in the future, this small difference would naturally not matter, but—
Is the gap at this moment really so easy to close?
It's not easy.
If she can become a saint, then the Styx River can also become a saint.
The idea that becoming a saint would allow one to surpass the Styx River was something even Nuwa herself couldn't believe. As one of the most powerful beings in the primordial world, she knew that cultivation was a snowballing process; differences in early accumulation would lead to ever-widening gaps in later stages.
But----
Both are Great Luo Golden Immortals, and both listened to the Dao in Zixiao Palace, so why was Styx able to do it?
"Fellow Daoists, are you all well?" Seeing that all the powerful demons in front of him were staring at him blankly, Styx in the Chaos spoke first.
"Thanks to Fellow Daoist Styx, all is well." Di Jun stepped forward, looked at Styx, and said in a calm tone.
Upon closer examination, Di Jun's words seemed fine on the surface, but they carried a hint of sarcasm. After all, the Witch Clan owes its current status entirely to the Styx River.
If the Styx River hadn't given the Witch Clan such a huge boost, even if they lost, they wouldn't have lost so badly.
Of course, Styx was unaware of Dijun and the others' thoughts. If he had known, he would have only laughed at Dijun's naiveté.
Once the Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation is activated, the defeat will only be worse than today.
"Fellow Daoist, you must already understand my selfless intentions, which greatly pleases me," Styx said with a smile, seemingly oblivious to the hidden meaning in Di Jun's words, causing Di Jun and the others to change their expressions.
A selfless act?
Thinking back to how many people had died in the siege by the Wu Clan, Di Jun couldn't take it anymore.
Isn't this just making sarcastic remarks?
Seeing that they had suffered a crushing defeat and had their demon immortal path abolished by the Dao Ancestor, he came specifically to mock them.
Can this really be called public-spiritedness?
Are there any selfish people in this primordial world?
If it weren't for the fact that fighting the Styx River at this moment would mean certain death, and if there were even the slightest chance of winning, Di Jun would have already taken Taiyi and gone to fight.
But before Di Jun could come up with a retort to Minghe, he heard Minghe speak.
"Fellow Daoist Di Jun, I have come here specifically to offer you all a fortuitous opportunity."
