When the seal on Ancestor Styx is not triggered, it is a chain of mysterious rules locked on his body.
But when the extremely killing sword light fell on the seal, the divine chains of order suddenly changed, trembling crazily and making clattering sounds.
Dots of golden light rippled and condensed into a huge golden lotus in mid-air, and on top of the golden lotus, sat a golden Buddha.
The lotus platform and the Buddha are immovable, firmly suppressing the body of Patriarch Styx, exuding an eternal aura of immortality.
Not moving, not moving, never moving!
This is the supreme supernatural power realized by the two sages of the West after enlightenment to Mount Buzhou. They turned Mount Buzhou into an ancient Buddha and have great power to suppress all things in the world, past and present, and the future.
With such magical power, even if the Hunyuan Da Luo Jinxian arrives, he will still be unable to break it.
But at this moment, under the extreme sword light, even the chaos will turn into nothingness. Although the eternal Buddha is powerful, it is not true eternity after all.
In just an instant, he was swallowed up by the bloody sword light. The golden light on his body was dim at first, and then gradually disappeared into nothingness.
The seal is broken!
Then the seal used by the Second Saint of the West to suppress the Styx Ancestor was broken so easily? As soon as Jiang Chen saw it, he destroyed the seal and released the Styx Ancestor who had been suppressed for millions of years.
"Ancestor, don't resist, just let me go!"
After breaking the seal, Jiang Chen did not dare to hesitate and called Ancestor Minghe not to resist. Then he sacrificed the Dao Jian that he had prepared for a long time and took him with him to move the void and go to the outer chaos.
Just as Jiang Chen and Ancestor Minghe walked away, they heard an angry roar from the distance:
"you wanna die!"
As soon as the sound fell, a bright colorful ray of light and a cyan innate divine light were seen falling from the chaos outside the sky at the same time, blasting towards the place where the ancestor of Styx was originally sealed.
But it was the two saints Jie Yin and Zhunti who took action. When they broke the seal, they couldn't notice it because the cause and effect and heavenly secrets were cut off.
But now that the seal has been broken, how could they, as the ones who imposed the seal, not sense it?
Therefore, after learning that the seal left by them had been broken and the ancestor of Styx had been rescued, the two saints who were far away in the chaos immediately became furious and took action at the same time to intercept the escaping Styx. Ancestor.
That colorful ray of light is the treasure of Saint Zhunti's enlightenment, the top-grade spiritual treasure Seven Treasures Tree transformed from his own branches.
And that green innate divine light is the Eastern Blue Lotus Flag, the ultimate spiritual treasure of merit and virtue.
As for the Golden Lotus of Merit, although this treasure is the most precious treasure of Buddhism, it was injured by Taoist Mosquito during the tribulation period. So far, the two saints no longer dared to sacrifice this treasure when fighting with others, for fear of being injured. Adding insult to injury has shaken the foundation of the West.
The two saints took action with hatred, and the power can be imagined. It is estimated that even the master who has just entered Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian will be seriously injured on the spot.
It can be said that if this blow is carried out, as long as Patriarch Styx remains where he is, given his cultivation level, he will definitely be beaten to the point of death, physically and mentally.
However, the place where the ancestor of the Styx was sealed was the former site of the Blood Sea. The current source of the Styx is one of the foundations of the Netherworld. If this place is destroyed, even if it can be repaired afterwards, the Netherworld will be affected.
Empress Houtu is still here, how can she sit back and watch this scene happen?
"Jie Ying Zhunti, are you crazy?"
"For personal grudges, you actually want to destroy the Netherworld?"
In the deepest part of the netherworld, the place of reincarnation, the angry voice of Empress Houtu rang out. Immediately, the Six Paths of Reincarnation Disk, the first treasure in the world, vibrated, and a powerful force of reincarnation swept out.
Like the breeze blowing by, the angry blows of the two saints disappeared into nothingness, as if they had never appeared.
In the Netherworld, Houtu Empress is an invincible existence, and the power she can exert is even higher than that of Hunyuan. Even if Dao Ancestor comes in person, she may not be her opponent.
The two saints of Jie Yin and Zhunti may be able to compete with Empress Houtu in the outside world, but in the underworld, the two of them combined are not a match for her.
"Mother Houtu, please calm down. It's my brothers and sisters who are responsible for Meng Lang. I hope you can forgive me."
The next moment, the incarnations of the two saints, Jie Yin and Zhunti, appeared in the Netherworld at the same time, and said to the Empress Dowager Tu apologetically.
"snort!"
Empress Houtu snorted coldly, ignored the two of them, and then disappeared.
In the final analysis, the Netherworld did not really suffer any loss. It was destroyed by the two saints. Even if Empress Houtu wanted to have a seizure, she could not use this as an excuse.
As long as it doesn't create an established fact, it doesn't matter. As a saint, you still have this privilege.
"It's too late, people have already left."
While apologizing to Empress Houtu, the incarnation of the Second Saint of the West had already looked at the place where Patriarch Styx was originally sealed, inside and out, several times.
I saw that since the seal was broken and the Styx Ancestor left, the previously dry river channel was now filled with pools of dark red blood from nowhere, gradually filling the river channel, and it kept filling up. Spread outward.
Now that the seal has been broken, there is no suppression, and the blood sea that has disappeared for millions of years also begins to reappear at this moment.
And above the sea of blood, strands of dark red sword energy kept raging, extremely fierce, containing the supreme killing intention, shattering the void, and destroying all things.
The incarnations of the two saints, Jie Yin Zhunti, just touched this place, and were killed by the tyrannical sword intent that remained here.
"The person who rescued Styx is very strong. The purity of his sword intention is extremely powerful. Even fellow Daoist Shangqing is slightly less powerful."
After a long silence, the saint said with a look of sorrow on his face.
When they came here, they were already prepared to fail to catch the Ancestor Styx, and the reason why they were in such a hurry now was simply to find clues to the person who rescued the Ancestor Styx from the remaining aura at the scene.
These two saints really want to know who is so brave and dares to release the ancestor of Styx, knowing that they will offend the two saints.
There is no doubt that if this person dares to do this, he definitely has a grudge against the two of them. Otherwise, he would not dare to offend them like this.
And if a powerful enemy is hidden in the dark, even a saint will have trouble sleeping and feel like a light is hanging on his back.
"Speaking of fellow Daoist Shangqing, this sword intention does have a bit of the Immortal Killing Sword Intention."
"However, it's not like we haven't seen the Four Swords of Zhuxian before. Their sword intent is far from that powerful."
Saint Zhunti thought that during the Conferring God War, his two brothers had joined forces with Saint Yuanshi Tianzun Taiqing, a total of four saints, to defeat the Immortal Killing Sword Formation.
It was precisely because of that incident that they came into contact with the Four Swords of Zhu Xian and memorized the chilling meaning of the swords.
"Not only does it have the aura of the Four Swords of Killing Immortals, but also Yuantu Abi of Styx. In addition, there is also the Chunyang Sword of Dong Wanggong."
"Well, there are three more sword intentions, which are not weaker than the first six sword intentions, but they are a bit unfamiliar. I don't know where they come from."
A saint is a saint. Even though the aura remaining at the scene has long been unrecognizable, they can still distinguish the nine ultimate sword intentions.
"Nine types of sword intent? More than that, senior brother, I seem to feel the aura of Tao Ancestor. The person coming here must be a direct descendant of Xuan Sect."
"No, in addition to the aura of Dao Ancestor, there is also demonic aura here. This demonic aura is so deep and dark that even the Demon Lord Yuanshi Tian is slightly inferior. It is like the demonic intention that exists deep in Mount Sumeru."
"This is the power of Demon Ancestor!"
Suddenly, Saint Zhunti changed his color and felt the aura of the Demon Ancestor from it, which brought back his bad memories.
The entanglement between Buddhism and Demonic Sect is so deep that it is even greater than Xuanmen, the mortal enemy of Demonic Sect. The actual reason is that the two religions share the same ancestral court. If there is no relationship between the two religions, no one would believe it.
It has been rumored since ancient times that Buddhism was born out of the demonic path, and the two paths are one and the same. It is just that the demonic path is used for evil, and the Buddhist path is used for good. This creates the difference between the two paths, one is good and the other is evil.
"No need to guess. The person who rescued Ancestor Styx is the Star Master, but even if we know it is him, there is no point. Can we still question him face to face?"
"Forget it, just as Star Lord wishes, let out the news that the one who rescued Styx is none other than the Demon Lord of Yuanshi."
Saint Jieyin sighed and told Saint Zhunti not to guess anymore. He had already guessed who the person who made the move was, without a doubt, Jiang Chen.
No evidence is needed, he thinks Jiang Chen is, then Jiang Chen is the one. It's just so idealistic and makes no sense.
"Although the Four Swords of Zhuxian are the treasures of Taoist friends from the Shangqing Dynasty, they were indeed refined by the Demon Ancestor. The sword marks left on Mount Xumi are proof."
"The Demon Lord Yuanshi was at odds with the Star Lord. In order to take revenge on the Star Lord, he pretended to be the Star Lord and rescued Styx in order to sow discord between the Star Lord and us."
Saint Zhunti also said silently, even if they guessed that Jiang Chen was responsible for this matter, they would not be able to confront him face to face. That's meaningless, and Jiang Chen won't admit it.
Even if all the great supernatural beings in the world knew that this was done by Jiang Chen, no one would take the initiative to speak out. Instead, they all agreed that this was done by the Demon Lord Yuanshi Tian.
There are already so many scapegoats for Demon Lord Yuanshi Tian, and this one is no less important. It is precisely because there are so many scapegoats that no one dares to delve deeper.
If you really want to dig deeper, it will be troublesome if you find something that shouldn't be found. Even a saint can't stand the dark history of many great supernatural powers being revealed at once.
"The Star Master seems to be expressing his dissatisfaction with us through this matter." Saint Jieyin vaguely understood something and said to Saint Zhunti beside him.
"Senior brother, it is normal for the Star Master to be dissatisfied with us. After all, we have been indifferent to him since he became the master of Buddhism, and we have never even supported him."
"Looking back at Tathagata, we have never stopped supporting him since he became the Lord of Buddhism. In contrast to the two, it is normal for the Star Lord to be dissatisfied."
Saint Zhunti nodded beside him, agreeing with what Saint Zhunti said.
After Jiang Chen rescued Ancestor Styx, not only were they not angry, but they were self-examination. It sounded outrageous, but that was the fact.
This is the change brought about by increasing strength!
If before, when Jiang Chen had just become the master of Buddhism, if he dared to release Ancestor Styx, the Second Saint of the West would have been furious and tried every means to target Jiang Chen.
But now, Jiang Chen is the Star Master, and his status is even higher than that of a saint. Such a person entered Buddhism and became the master of Buddhism, working for the two of them, but did not get the respect he deserved. The dissatisfaction is understandable.
Because he was dissatisfied, he chose to release Ancestor Styx to create trouble for the two of them.
If they were Jiang Chen, they would do the same thing. The Second Saint thought about it for a moment and understood everything.
Of course, being able to put the two saints in their shoes is in itself a reflection of Jiang Chen's strength.
Otherwise, do you think anyone can make a saint think in his shoes? Let a saint put you in your situation and look at the problem. Who do you think you are? The way of heaven?
"Styx, just let it go."
"Who told us not to help him? Then he would have to find help on his own. Moreover, after having imprisoned Styx for so long, it is time to let him out."
I don't know what I thought of, but the eyes that greeted the saint became blurry for a moment.
"Let Styx go, this..."
"Senior brother, when we suppressed Styx, we thought that the sea of blood was just a cover. The real purpose was to avenge fellow Taoist Hongyun and weaken the influence of the cause and effect of sanctification."
"If we let him out now, I'm afraid that the cause and effect of sanctification, which has finally subsided, will jump out and affect us again."
Sage Zhunti heard what Sage Jieyin said, and when he thought about the consequences of this matter, his tone became even more anxious.
"The cause and effect of Zixiao Palace's abdication has been dragged on for so many years, and it should come to an end. Otherwise, you and I will never be able to transcend."
"I have calculated that our Buddhist sect will prosper in the future, and the Hunyuan Golden Immortal will be born. You and I can leave this position to Hongyun to repay the cause and effect of becoming a saint that year."
The saint said with a complicated expression, being entangled in cause and effect is not a good thing, especially when it comes to the cause and effect of sanctification.
Over the years, although they have tried their best to minimize the impact of this cause and effect, they have not been able to completely get rid of its influence. As a result, they often cannot go as they wish when practicing, and they have to spend 120% of their energy to achieve success. It has 10% of the effect of others.
And for this cause and effect, do they really think they don’t want to pay it back? It’s not that I don’t want to, it’s that I can’t afford it. Even though they are saints, their own family members know their own affairs, and their holy status is not stable at all.
If you want to repay Hongyun's karma, you must either give him an innate treasure or give him a holy status. The two sages of the West also wanted this innate treasure, but they really couldn't find it.
As for the holy throne, they wanted to give it to him, but Heaven did not agree.
Their holy throne is different from that of Sanqing Nuwa. It is itself the result of debt from heaven. Before the debt is paid off, where is the chance to escape?
Is it so easy to transfer debt?
Therefore, this matter has been postponed again and again, and it is only now that Saint Jieying has the hope of repaying the karma.
As long as Buddhism can prosper in the future, with the blessing of the surging luck, it will be enough for Hongyun to become the Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal, thereby repaying the cause and effect of the past.
