Beyond the Blood River, Styx did not give the Heavenly Court's great supernatural beings any further chance to worry about Tongtian. Holding Tongtian in one hand, he headed straight for Taiyi, Yuanshi, and Zhenyuanzi with the other.
Once Taiyi is captured, the Zhou Tian Star Array, which has lost the Chaos Bell, will be completely broken. At that time, all the powerful figures of the Heavenly Court will become fish on a chopping board in front of the Styx River.
Of course, Lao Tzu couldn't let this happen. Seeing this, he waved his hand, and the Taiji diagram transformed into a white jade and golden bridge. Boundless Xuanhuang Qi descended from the Xuanhuang Pagoda, protecting Yuanshi, Taiyi, and Zhenyuanzi.
Nuwa stared at the scene before her, speechless and incredulous.
She had considered that the Styx River would be very strong, but she hadn't expected that the Zhou Tian Xing Dou Grand Formation, which was led by the array master Tongtian and composed of the other ten Quasi-Saints of the Heavenly Court, as well as numerous Daluo Golden Immortals and Taiyi Golden Immortals, would be defeated so easily.
He was utterly defeated by Styx alone.
Is that correct?
At this moment, Taiyi also retrieved the Chaos Bell and fully activated this innate treasure in an attempt to contend with the Styx River. However, without the support of the Zhou Tian Star Array, even with two innate treasures and one acquired merit treasure, they could not withstand the Styx River's attack.
Below the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, a cultivator might be able to challenge opponents of higher levels with the help of a unique spiritual treasure. However, at the Great Luo Golden Immortal, Quasi-Saint, Primordial Golden Immortal, and even Saint realms, while spiritual treasures still play a significant role, they are not enough to disregard the difference in cultivation level.
As the Primordial Measuring Ruler swept across, the white jade bridge transformed into yin and yang energies, eventually reverting to the Taiji diagram. The primordial energy of the Heaven and Earth Profound Yellow Exquisite Pagoda scattered, and the Chaos Bell flew back, sweeping away the defenses of the three supreme treasures. The horrified expressions of Taiyi, Yuanshi, and Zhenyuanzi fell into the eyes of the Styx River.
Styx raised his hand, and the boundless chaos, under the guidance of the Dao of Heaven and Earth, transformed into a small world, trapping the Chaos Bell within it. Then, with a flip of the universe in his palm, he also took Yuanshi, Zhenyuanzi, and Taiyi into his hand, sending them to find Tongtian to keep him company.
"Not good!" Laozi was shocked. Two of the Three Pure Ones had been captured by the Styx River. Most importantly, the two most important cores of the main formation, Tongtian and Taiyi, as well as the Chaos Bell, had been captured. The Zhou Tian Star Formation could no longer be maintained.
With the Zhou Tian Star Array broken, their cultivation level makes it impossible for them to contend with the Styx River.
The situation on the field was extremely dire for the Heavenly Court. The remaining Heavenly Emperor, Empress, and Great Emperor experienced the feeling of going from heaven to hell in an instant.
However, in this world, good fortune never comes in pairs, and misfortunes never come singly. When the Heavenly Court was thriving, all the great powers would naturally follow it loyally, like shadows, forever faithful to their master. But now that the Heavenly Court is in decline, many people have naturally started to have their own ideas.
Just like the Kunpeng that ran away with the Hetu and Luoshu at the end of the original Lich War.
At the end of the Lich War, the hatred and cohesion of the demon race towards the witch race, the karma between the great supernatural beings of the demon court and the demon court reached an extreme. Even so, some people still took risks. Although Kunpeng was such a person and his death was not a pity, can the newly established Heavenly Court, which suffered a great defeat, be stronger than the original demon court?
will not.
As the Zhou Tian Star Array gradually collapsed, many powerful figures from the Heavenly Court abandoned the Zhou Tian Star Banner and fled the battlefield. With the first person running away, more and more followed, until finally, even the remaining demon gods, though still holding fast to the Star Banner, were powerless without Tongtian...
With Taiyi and the Chaos Bell in power, the Zhou Tian Star Array could no longer be maintained.
The strange phenomenon in the boundless starry sky dissipated, and the entire Zhou Tian Star Array collapsed.
Laozi and Dijun tried to stop them, but it was no use. For all the beings of the Heavenly Court, they had to leave now, or it would be too late.
Who is Styx?
Of the three thousand guests of Zixiao, only he entered the Dao through killing. It is said that the Styx Ancestor even established a hell in the Netherworld Blood Sea, which is set up with all kinds of cruel tortures, specifically for torturing enemies. These powerful figures of the Heavenly Court are very suspicious that if they stay, the Styx Ancestor will kill them all.
Moreover, even after death, one will not find peace but will suffer all kinds of torment in hell, from which there is no escape.
Now that Styx's attention is on the remaining emperors, if they don't run now, when will they?
Waiting for what? Waiting for the Yuan Tu and Abi to chop off our heads?
"Everyone, come with me." Styx looked at the remaining few people. With the Zhou Tian Star Array broken, they no longer posed a threat. With a wave of his blood-red Daoist robe, he took the remaining Quasi-Saints of the Heavenly Court into his palm. No matter how the Quasi-Saints tried to fight back, they could not get rid of him.
"The Heavenly Emperors of the Heavenly Court are guilty, and I shall punish them to appease the world. They abused their power for personal gain and settling private scores. I shall capture them and bring them to the Purple Cloud Palace to be questioned."
"You all must return to the Thirty-Third Heaven immediately, and do not linger here." Styx looked at the remaining thousands of demons, and with a thought, his terrifying killing intent instantly overwhelmed all the demons before him, who were at least at the Golden Immortal realm and at most at the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, and they were all crushed to the ground.
Faced with Styx's coercion, the demons were helpless and had no choice but to follow Styx's orders and slink back to the Three Heavens.
The eleven Quasi-Saints of Heaven, held in the palm of Styx's hand, were all filled with shame and indignation. Being easily defeated by Styx despite their overwhelming numerical advantage was already a slap in the face enough. Now, to be taken to Zixiao Palace by Styx for questioning showed that Styx did not regard them as true opponents at all, but rather treated them like an old man disciplining a naughty child. How could this not make the Quasi-Saints of Heaven feel ashamed?
"Damn it, damn it!" Taiyi stood in the palm of Styx. No matter how he used his supernatural powers, he was still held in Styx's palm by his great power and could not break free.
The scene of being held in the palm of the Styx last time had been a recurring nightmare for him for many years. The Styx manipulated his Great Sun Golden Crow true form like a toy, which had even become a source of inner demons. He had originally hoped to avenge this humiliation with the Zhou Tian Star Array, but now—
It was precisely because he felt he could not fight the Styx alone that Taiyi chose to comprehend the Zhou Tian Xing Dou Great Array, hoping to use the power of the array to fight the Styx. But now, Taiyi's spirits have been somewhat dampened.
He could never defeat the Styx, no matter what.
This was a terrifying thought, because it arose in the mind of Taiyi, the supreme being of the demon race. From the moment this thought arose in his mind, he was no longer the confident Taiyi who could be invincible in the primordial world no matter what situation he encountered.
Similarly, the Three Pure Ones were also extremely ashamed and indignant. As the transformation of Pangu's primordial spirit, they were respected and loved by everyone throughout countless years. Even when the three innate races fought fiercely in the last great calamity, no one dared to be disrespectful to them. But now, being held in the palm of the Styx River was truly an extreme humiliation.
But Styx didn't care how much psychological harm his actions caused to the quasi-saints of Heaven.
