Chapter 1: Crossing the River Styx, but Obtaining a System That Reaches the Heavens?
Above the Netherworld Blood Sea, a powerful aura that swept across the primordial world startled the handsome, blood-robed Daoist who was sitting cross-legged on the Twelfth Grade Karmic Fire Red Lotus.
But then, all the laws of the primordial world condensed into golden patterns, the clouds in the nine heavens boiled like steam, three thousand lotus flowers bloomed in the void and slowly descended, and countless golden lotuses surged from the ground. As the universe resonated, holy might descended, pressing down on all the primordial beings and making them all bow their heads.
"I, Hongjun, have attained sainthood today. After the First Yuan Hui, I will preach in the Zixiao Palace of Chaos beyond the heavens. All those who are destined may come and listen."
Styx: ?
"What happened?" The Taoist rose from the Twelfth Grade Karmic Fire Red Lotus. Immediately, boundless memories flooded his mind, and in a moment, he understood everything.
He traveled to the prehistoric world and became the Styx Ancestor. At this time, Hongjun had just attained sainthood and was about to give a lecture at Zixiao Palace.
"Have I become Styx?" Styx's thoughts were complicated at this moment.
Transmigrating into the Styx River isn't bad. Compared to the Ancestral Witches who perished in the Great Tribulation long ago, as well as powerful figures like Hongyun, Dongwanggong, Dijun, and Taiyi, this person's future is indeed quite promising.
However, compared to Styx's innate advantages, this person's future is not so promising.
Its companion spiritual treasures include the Yuan Tu and A Bi, spiritual treasures for killing. Although these two swords are not as good as the God-Slaying Spear, they are still top-grade innate spiritual treasures. Killing people will not cause any karma. There is also the Twelve-Grade Karmic Fire Red Lotus, which can suppress fortune and is both offensive and defensive, with supreme power.
In the future, they will obtain the Northern Xuan Yuan Water Control Flag at the Treasure Sharing Cliff.
Moreover, it is backed by the Blood Sea and has 480 million Blood God Child clones. The Blood Sea will never dry up and the Styx River will never die. At the same time, the Netherworld Blood Sea is formed from Pangu's filthy blood. Although it is filthy blood, it is Pangu's filthy blood.
All of this not only gave Styx and Zhen Yuanzi a level of "moral blackmail," but also made Styx one of the few powerful beings with the closest relationship to Pangu, besides the Three Pure Ones and the Twelve Ancestral Witches.
Although I didn't have the merit of creating the world, I still had a bit of good fortune.
Compared to the vast majority of the Three Thousand Guests of Zixiao, especially some powerful beings who couldn't even produce a spiritual treasure capable of severing corpses, Styx seemed to have the script of a protagonist.
However, in the end, Styx's achievements were not very high. Although some people believe that he is the number one person below the sage, the value of this title is obviously not as high as that of Donghuang Taiyi. Moreover, in the Lich War, after Houtu transforms into reincarnation, she will inevitably weaken the Netherworld Blood Sea.
Although there is the Asura realm, one of the six realms of reincarnation, as compensation, even Styx feels a bit of a headache thinking about the future Buddha who vows not to become a Buddha until the Buddhist hell is emptied.
Moreover, Hongjun's lecture will begin soon, and it is unknown whether this sage will be able to discover the identity of the transmigrator. If he does, who knows what will happen.
[Ding! The Counterattack System has been activated.]
Styx: ?
On the eve of the Lich War, you, along with your eldest and second elder brothers, went to Zixiao Palace to listen to the sage preach. You, along with your eldest and second elder brothers, were accepted as disciples by the sage Hongjun...
Seeing this, Styx realized something was wrong. Eldest brother, second brother? Is this his system?
Are you sure it's not the system of the Tongtian Cult Master next door?
During the Lich War, you, along with your elder and second elder brothers, established a religion and became saints. The great religion you established was called "Intercept," meaning to intercept a glimmer of life for all living beings in the world. After the war ended, the prehistoric world officially entered the era of saints ruling the world. Although the Dao Ancestor Hongjun appointed his disciple to succeed him as the Heavenly Emperor, none of the saints took him seriously.
Under your patient and inclusive teaching, the Jie Sect has grown to the point where all immortals flock to pay homage. Although you lack a magical treasure capable of suppressing the fortune of a major sect, the Jie Sect's power remains unparalleled in the primordial world.
Later, the Heavenly Emperor complained to the Purple Cloud Palace, and the Investiture of the Gods was born. Many saints and sects used the change of dynasties in the human world as a game of chess, fighting endlessly. In the end, it evolved into a great war of saints. In the great war of the Investiture of the Gods, many of your important disciples died one after another, which made you heartbroken.
What you never expected was that your two elder brothers, who had been with you for countless years, would join forces with Zhunti and Jieyin to attack you.
With the combined power of the Four Sages, nothing in heaven or earth could be accomplished. You successively set up the Immortal Slaughtering Formation and the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation, attempting to change the course of events using spiritual treasures such as the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation and the Six Soul Banner. However, you ultimately failed one after another. In the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation, with the decline of the Dao of "Interception," the end of the friendship between the three, and the shattering of your Dao heart, the Qingping Sword in your hand was shattered by Zhunti with the Seven Treasures Tree.
Blinded by the aura of calamity and utterly despondent, you attempted to rebuild the earth, water, wind, and fire elements with your saintly cultivation, hoping to change the world. However, your teacher stopped you, and you, along with your eldest and second brothers, were each fed a "Saint-Fallen Pill" by your teacher. This pill was refined with immense magical power; when the poison took effect, even a saint would perish. From then on, you were "protected" in the Zixiao Palace and were never allowed to leave.
[From that time onward, for countless years, you quietly observed the primordial situation while repeatedly pondering why you, as a direct descendant of Pangu and one of the Three Pure Ones, had come to this point.]
"It really is the system of the Tongtian Sect Master, and it seems to be the Tongtian after the Investiture of the Gods. But I am not Tongtian, and this is not after the Investiture of the Gods!" Styx thought to himself. The timeline and the host are wrong. This system does not seem to be very intelligent.
However, the system did not offer any corrections, but only kept giving prompts.
[Host, do you still have the confidence and courage to re-establish the Great Dao of Interception and seize that glimmer of hope for all living beings in this primordial world?]
"Yes." Styx thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "Why not take this free cheat code?"
The primordial order is what it is. Without external help, he might end up having to argue with the younger generation of the Buddhist sect. Since he has the foundation of the Styx River, even if he doesn't fight for the power of the world, he should at least make himself feel less stifled!
[Congratulations, host! The Counterattack System has been successfully bound.]
[Host: Tongtian]
[Cultivation Level: Fourth Level of Grand Luo Golden Immortal (Sealed?)]
[Character Status: Has consumed the Fallen Saint Pill, cultivation level sealed below Quasi-Saint, imprisoned in Zixiao Palace.]
Main Quest 1: Restore the True Name of Pangu
【Task Introduction: As a great supernatural being transformed from the primordial spirit of Pangu into the Three Pure Ones, you are undoubtedly the true descendant of Pangu. However, with the collapse of Mount Buzhou during the Lich War and your attempt to re-establish earth, water, wind, and fire during the Investiture of the Gods, to this day, few beings in the primordial world still recognize your name as the true descendant of Pangu. Please reshape the name of the true descendant of Pangu.
As the beings of the primordial world come to recognize your status as the true descendant of Pangu, rewards will be distributed one by one.
Main Quest Two: Re-establishing the Great Religion
[The Great Dao is fifty, and the Heavenly Evolution is forty-nine. The one that has been lost is a glimmer of hope and an infinite possibility. As the leader of the Jie Sect, how can you watch such a great sect be wiped out?]
Please revitalize the Great Church; as the Great Church develops, the rewards will be distributed gradually.
