Chapter 243: Hou Tu asks the soul whether it is suffering or not?
The two Teng Snakes held in front of Hou Tu Niangniang's chest opened their mouths and let out a vibrating hissing sound, like two ochre-colored divine whips, instantly hitting the Yuan Tu and Abi swords.
As the Teng Snake Whip was swung, one world of earth after another was born. They were thick and ancient, inexplicably heavy, and extraordinarily heavy. With the momentum of one man blocking the pass from ten thousand, they blocked the two rays of killing light.
However, the Yuantu and Abi swords are both top-grade innate killing spiritual treasures. The combined power of the two is enough to rival a leader-level innate spiritual treasure in terms of lethality. How could the two Teng snakes on Hou Tu Niangniang's body be able to easily block them?
No matter how many ochre-colored worlds continued to increase, wherever the two divine lights, one red and one black, passed, no matter how huge the world was, it would slowly wither and decay in the endless murderous intent.
The beautiful eyes of the Queen Mother Hou Tu trembled slightly, but facing the killing power of these two magical treasures, she had no good solution.
No matter how high her cultivation level was, she was ultimately limited by the fact that she had no primordial spirit.
If there is no primordial spirit, then there will be no possibility of resonance with the spiritual treasure. If there is no resonance with each other, how can the spiritual treasure recognize the Wu clan as its leader?
The Witch Clan obtained a lot of spiritual treasures, but in the end they either had to refine them by force using the blood refining method, or locked them in the warehouse as precious decorations.
As the ancestor of witches, Hou Tu Niangniang was naturally able to obtain several fine spiritual treasures, but she could not bear to see such treasures being destroyed by the blood refining method and turned into puppets, and in the end she had to fight the enemy with bare hands.
If it weren't for the fact that the Wu Clan was physically strong, fearless, and united, they would have lost their place in the wild.
The face of the ancestor of the Styx was solemn. He did not care that Hou Tu Niangniang seemed to be in a dilemma. It should be known that Hou Tu Niangniang was the most powerful among the Twelve Ancestral Witches. At this time, she was still pulling the filthy sea of blood back to the ground, which showed how strong her magic power was.
"Fellow Daoist Hou Tu, you are indeed extraordinary. If you and I met in the outside world, it would be hard to predict who would win or lose. However, this place is near the filthy sea of blood. It is unwise for you to come here and cause trouble for me."
The ancestor of the Styx sighed lightly, and hundreds of millions of dark blood spots appeared behind him. In each of the blood spots, there was a demon that looked very similar to the ancestor of the Styx. He had no expression on his face, but was full of murderous aura. In addition, there were blood waves surging and roaring in the sea of blood in the distance, and a bloody smell wafted out, which seemed particularly weird.
Seeing the demons in these blood spots, Queen Hou Tu suddenly had a bad feeling in her heart.
"Is this... a blood demon?"
Facing the question from Hou Tu Niangniang, the old ancestor of the Styx smiled and said, "This is a blood demon, but it is not a blood demon. I am the master of the filthy sea of blood. Who can surpass me in understanding blood? Even if it is the Demon Ancestor Luo Hou, I am confident that I can be on par with him in understanding blood. This is the magical power I have developed after years of research. It is called: 'Blood God Son'. Daoist friend Hou Tu is the first person to see it. Let's see my magical power."
As the old man of the Styx finished his words, a total of 480 million blood gods flew out and bit towards the endless world of earth.
Like a swarm of locusts passing through, any world passed by the Blood God's path became barren, and nearly 99% of the origin was devoured by it. The remaining origin was also infected by the filthy blood of the Blood God's body. The whole world began to fall continuously, and spots of blood appeared, and it was actually starting to change its nature.
Blood is the flow of life for all living things. Even the supreme god Pangu has blood.
The Blood God Son plunders the blood of heaven and earth, which means he plunders the life of heaven and earth. He uses blood as the appearance and swallowing as the inside. If you are knocked down by the Blood God Son, all the essence in your body will be plundered, and you will learn the true meaning of the devil.
As those earth worlds continued to degenerate, Queen Hou Tu could no longer continue to use the power of the primordial magnet to pull the filthy sea of blood downward, because without the protection of those worlds, the two supreme murderous intentions had already locked onto her.
The Yuantu and Abi swords, with unmatched momentum, viciously stabbed at the remaining soul in Hou Tu Niangniang's sea of consciousness and the beating heart in her real body.
The two swords were extremely powerful, and it was obvious that the killing in those earth worlds was not in vain, but was constantly accumulating momentum. Once the momentum reached the peak, each move would carry a deterrent force.
The 480 million Blood God Sons are also ready to go.
After devouring countless world origins, the Blood God Son, who was originally only the size of dust, had now expanded to dozens of feet high. Facing the murderous force of the Yuantu and Abi swords, 480 million Blood God Sons merged with each other and turned into a continuously flowing river of blood to follow them.
Hou Tu Niangniang did not dare to be careless. If she were somewhere else, she could still go to the bottom of the earth and use the prehistoric continent to resist the outside world's killing.
But this place is located near the filthy sea of blood, and it is unknown how many tens of thousands of years it has been managed by the Old Ancestor of the Styx. Entering the land at this moment is tantamount to walking into a trap. Instead, the Old Ancestor of the Styx will seize the opportunity and trap him in the sea of blood.
As soon as Hou Tu Niangniang had a thought, endless power of the earth suddenly emerged out of thin air and immediately weaved into a large ochre cover that was suspended upside down like a bowl. The primordial magnetic force was wandering outside the cover like a snake dragon.
The twin swords of Yuan Tu and Abi flew over first and slashed downward fiercely. The huge yellow canopy immediately trembled continuously, mud and rocks flew everywhere, and the earth's energy surged, but in the end the canopy was still not broken.
The long river of blood that followed was also in vain. The blood was foul-smelling and wore away by the force of the magnetic field, and instead killed many Blood God sons.
The ancestor of the Styx was not satisfied with this, and he once again pointed at the twelfth-grade red lotus of karma fire that was trapped by the magnetic force in the distance. He saw infinite red lotus karma fire explode, immediately burning all the magnetic force ashes. Finally, the red lotus spun around and immediately flew to the head of Queen Hou Tu, pouring karma fire on her.
The karmic fire uses karma as its fuel, so it is neither strong nor weak.
For those who have great merits, the fire of karma may be even less powerful than the light of a lamp; but for those who have committed serious sins, the fire of karma is more terrifying than divine punishment!
As long as there is a trace of karma in the body, the karmic fire will never stop. It will first burn the physical body, then the spirit, and eventually the soul and the avenue will all be buried together. Except for extinguishing it with merit, there is no other way to control the karmic fire.
Faced with the little flames, Queen Hou Tu's face finally changed drastically.
The witch clan is deeply sinful. Even with the blessing of 30% of the merits of creation left by Pangu, they can only suppress the loss of their luck. They cannot waste it to eliminate the karma, and can only hold it in temporarily.
It would have been fine in the past, as Queen Hou Tu could mobilize the power of merit to extinguish these karmic fires. However, at this moment, the slightest carelessness could lead to an attack from the ancestor of the Styx.
It should be noted that the old man of the Styx has only used three spiritual treasures and one magical power so far, while she has almost played all her cards. If she is entangled by this karma fire again, it will be really dangerous.
Just when Hou Tu Niangniang was getting anxious, a voice came from a distance: "Sister, don't panic, I'm coming!"
I saw a woman wearing green fairy clothes, with a flying fairy bun on her hair, and a tall and straight figure, as heavy as a mountain flying from afar. The woman held a seal as big as Mount Tai in her hand, and threw it in the direction of Hou Tu Niangniang. The seal spun in the sky, and finally suddenly rose up and turned into a small Mount Tai, which immediately blocked the layer of karmic fire.
The person who came was Bixia Yuanjun. Bixia Yuanjun had been practicing in seclusion for many years, so naturally she had no karma. As the head of the mountain gods, even if she had not taken any action for many years, she still had merits and virtues. Therefore, the karma fire that was extremely dangerous to Hou Tu Niangniang was as small as a lamp to her.
As the Taishan Seal is her natal spiritual treasure, it can naturally ignore the killing power of these karmic fires.
When the karmic fire burned to the small Mount Tai, it was like a breeze blowing on your face. The small Mount Tai did not change at all. Instead, it shook slightly and immediately dispersed the karmic fire.
Bixia Yuanjun flew to the side of Hou Tu Niangniang and said to her with a smile: "It seems that my sister has not come too late. It can be regarded as saving the crisis from dire straits."
The Queen Mother Hou Tu also breathed a sigh of relief and replied with a smile: "Sister, you came at a great time. If it weren't for your help, I'm afraid I would be in danger soon. I just don't know why you came here?"
Bixia Yuanjun said, "Not long after my sister left, I was so quiet that I wanted to move, so I followed her steps, but I was delayed a lot along the way. I didn't expect that when I just arrived here, I saw you fighting with the Styx Patriarch. I knew that my sister didn't have a magic treasure with her, so she would inevitably be stretched, so I came forward to help. I hope my sister won't blame me for being nosy."
The Queen Mother Hou Tu smiled faintly and said, "How could this be possible?" Then she said solemnly, "I just need my sister to help me push this filthy sea of blood into the bottom of the earth! We cannot let it stay on the earth for too long, otherwise there will be chaos!"
Bixia Yuanjun nodded and said seriously: "I am the chief of the mountain gods, this is natural."
Seeing that the two women were obviously planning to join forces, the Styx Patriarch laughed strangely and said, "Do you think you can suppress my sea of blood with just the two of you? Wishful thinking!"
The ancestor of the Styx stretched out his hand and a twelve-level karmic fire red lotus immediately flew under his body. The lotus blossomed and he uttered a deafening chant, chanting a strange scripture. Countless Asuras also poked their heads out of the sea of blood in the distance and also chanted the strange scriptures.
Although these Asuras have low cultivation bases, they can mobilize countless blood powers within the sea of blood. As soon as they chanted those scriptures, countless blood turned into strange blood-colored mists, spreading out in all directions, and instantly turned the land within a radius of thousands of miles that had already been slightly normal into a bloody demon realm again.
With the help of these Asuras in casting spells, the old man of the Styx felt a little more relaxed.
This is the advantage of having a race. You can leave some small and trivial matters to the race, and you only need to concentrate on practicing. Even if a powerful enemy comes, the race can still produce good results.
As the old man of the Styx continued to chant those scriptures, a faint fragrance emanated. This fragrance was like the scent of flowers, but also the scent of flesh and blood, evoking the deepest desires in the hearts of all things.
After hearing this, the two goddesses couldn't help but feel hungry in their stomachs. Looking at the sea of blood in the distance, they felt a sense of desire and wished they could get into it right now and swallow all the blood.
Afterwards, they immediately regained their composure, but Queen Hou Tu felt a little overwhelmed. After all, she was short of magical power and physically exhausted at the moment, so it was naturally more difficult for her to resist the pressure of this strange scripture.
"So tired... Even I feel tired. Do those sentient beings who died for no reason also feel tired?"
At this moment of pressure, this thought suddenly flashed through Hou Tu Niangniang's mind, and then she couldn't stop thinking about it, and she thought more and more about the appearance of those living beings before they died.
The Queen Mother Hou Tu lowered her eyebrows, and even the aura of yellow earth that she had been resisting outside began to fade away, and an aura of pity inexplicably emanated from her body.
The breath of mercy was continuously released, and all the souls enveloped by this breath no longer had their previous hideous and crazy appearance. Instead, they had smiling faces, golden glow on their bodies, and bowed to the Queen Mother Hou Tu from afar, expressing their gratitude to her for cleansing their evil spirits.
Bixia Yuanjun was also shocked by this. Seeing that Hou Tu Niangniang had fallen into a deep state of enlightenment, she knew that the plan had been accomplished. Suddenly, a voice came to her ear: "Junior Sister Bixia, continue to fight with Junior Brother Minghe. The day of your enlightenment is not far away. Don't let your efforts fail at the last moment."
Bixia Yuanjun recognized that this was Hengming's voice, and the voice of the Minghe Patriarch chanting scriptures opposite also paused slightly. The two looked at each other imperceptibly, knowing that the other had been inspired by Hengming.
Then they stopped hesitating and immediately started fighting. Before attacking, Bixia Yuanjun shouted, "Sister Hou Tu, you continue to gain enlightenment. I will stop him!"
Although she knew that Hou Tu could no longer hear any sound from the outside world, Bixia Yuanjun still had to do her best. Otherwise, everything would be ruined by just one sentence, and she would not be willing to accept that even if she died.
The momentum of the two burst out, and from time to time, the raging blood waves were pressed down by the sacred mountains, or the blood turned the sacred mountains into blood mountains. Overall, the blood still had the upper hand.
South China Sea, Yingzhou Island.
Ever since the Heavenly Dao allowed the Demon Realm to integrate into the prehistoric world, Heng Ming and his companions no longer stopped Tongtian Sect Master. Tongtian Sect Master was worried about Luohou's affairs, so naturally he didn't want to stay any longer. He left Yingzhou Island immediately, but did not return to Jinao Island. Instead, he went to Shouyang Mountain first.
It was obvious that he wanted to go to Taishang Laojun and Tongtian Jiaozhu to discuss something.
Seeing Jie Yin and Zhunti also leave the Primal Chaos, Heng Ming said: "The Demon Realm has been integrated into the Primal Chaos. The next step is to wait for Luo Hou to enter."
With the protection of human destiny, Luohou should be able to enter the prehistoric world quickly. However, the demon world has just been integrated into the prehistoric world, so this matter is not a big deal or a small one, not to mention that other saints are keeping an eye on Luohou's whereabouts at the moment. Therefore, this matter cannot be rushed, as mistakes are likely to occur if you rush.
If a conflict occurs at this moment, it will easily turn into a battle between saints, so we will naturally have to wait for some time.
They simply didn't care about this little bit of time, so they continued to wait for Luohou in Yuhua Palace.
At this moment, Hengming's mind moved, and Nuwa's face also changed. The two immediately knew that Houtu had gone to the Sea of Blood and had a conflict with the Styx.
Only Yang Mei was still talking idly with Cangtian, Qingtian and Huangtian. After all, he didn't care about external affairs, and he didn't even interfere too much in human affairs, so naturally he didn't care about these things.
Hengming immediately notified Bixia Yuanjun to go to the sea of blood and wait for the opportunity. Finally, seeing that Houtu was feeling the pain of the soul and had entered the deepest level of enlightenment, he immediately pinched his fingers to cast a spell, causing the fragment of the jade disc of creation on Houtu's body to vibrate.
That piece of the Jade Disc of Creation belongs to Hengming, so he will naturally obey Hengming's orders at this moment.
