Why did you provoke her? Even Heaven itself is afraid of her.

The Styx Ancestor denied it, saying, "Ling Yun, don't slander me in front of Lord Taishan. What does the Western Sands Blood Sea have to do with me?"

Ling Yun did not expose him.

"Are you coming with us?"

Styx countered Ling Yun's question: "What will happen if you fail to obtain the Star Sword?"

Ling Yun answered truthfully, "Of course. All three divine artifacts are indispensable. Otherwise, I would not be confident of victory against the Creator."

"Then what else is there to say? I'll go with you two. I'm not pretending anymore, I'm laying my cards on the table. The Blood Sea of ​​Xisha is indeed the territory of Ancestor Styx, only it used to be."

Ling Yun laughed and said, "Minghe, you said it yourself. I, your ancestor, have not slandered you!"

After the joke, Ling Yun and the other two headed to the Western Sacred City, the Blood Sea of ​​Xisha.

On the road.

Ling Yun asked the Styx Ancestor, "What do you want to tell me?"

The Styx Ancestor then handed the staff of the Limitless Celestial Venerable to Ling Yun.

"Look, what is this?"

Ling Yun asked, puzzled, "What is this?"

The Styx Ancestor explained, "Don't you recognize it? This is the walking stick that the Boundless Celestial Venerable is holding!"

Ling Yun shook his head.

"By all accounts, Wuji Tianzun is a nobody of my grandson's generation. I've never even met him. What, you've captured him?"

The Styx Ancestor responded, "Almost. Here's what happened: A few days ago, the Boundless Heavenly Venerable, representing the Creator, went to the Netherworld Blood Sea to persuade me to surrender, asking me to go to the God Realm to help the Heavenly Dao deal with you. After it's done, the Creator will teach me the laws of space and time, helping me to merge with the Dao and achieve the status of a Heavenly Dao Saint."

Ling Yun tentatively asked, "That's a good thing! So how did you respond to Wuji Tianzun?"

Ancestor Styx glanced at Ling Yun.

"What do you mean by talking like that? You don't doubt me, your ancestor, do you?"

Ling Yun said, "Of course not. What kind of relationship do we have? We're practically best friends. I want to know how you tricked Wuji Tianzun?"

Only then was the Styx Ancestor relieved.

"Of course I pretended to agree to him. Not only that, I also specifically inquired about the whereabouts of the Creator from him. Originally, I wanted to go to the Heavenly Realm to tell you this news as soon as possible, but I didn't expect that the Heavenly Dao would come to me at this time."

Ling Yun suddenly stopped upon hearing this.

She realized something was wrong.

"What does Heaven want with you? Tell me in detail."

The Styx Ancestor scoffed, "What could a traitor like him want from me? It's the same old story! The Heavenly Dao wants to take advantage of the Creator's incomplete injuries and use you to attack him, thus eliminating him completely."

He originally wanted to come to you in person and tell you the whereabouts of the Creator.

But remembering that he had lied to you before, and fearing you wouldn't believe him, he went through all that trouble to find me.

Ling Yun said coldly, "He's right to come looking for you. If it really is the Heavenly Dao coming in person, I, your ancestor, will only kill him."

The Styx Ancestor nodded.

"That's what I told him too. And I also asked him for something, guess what it was?"

Ling Yun said frankly, "It should be the Great Dao of Spacetime Law! When you first met me, I sensed the aura of the Great Dao of Spacetime Law within you."

On the surface, the Styx Ancestor appeared calm and collected, but inwardly he was secretly rejoicing.

Fortunately, everything he said was the truth and he did not deceive Ling Yun.

Otherwise, he would really have a hard time getting through this hurdle.

Subsequently.

The Styx Ancestor laughed heartily and said, "That's right, I obtained the Great Dao of Spacetime Laws from the Heavenly Dao without lifting a finger. Moreover, through the clues from those two, I have already determined the whereabouts of the Creator; he is right here..."

"Don't say it yet!"

Ling Yun stopped him.

"Such confidential matters should be discussed in my Ancestral Temple after we obtain the Star Sword."

"Alright, I'll listen to you on this matter, Ancestor. However, Lingyun, there's one more thing I need to confirm with you." Ancestor Styx pretended to be embarrassed.

Ling Yun punched him.

"Minghe, what's our relationship? Why are you being so polite with me, your ancestor? Just say what you need to say!"

“Ling Yun, I have never seen the Great Dao of Spacetime Laws, so I cannot be sure whether the Dao that Heaven passed on to me is real, or whether there has been any tampering with it. I would like you to help me investigate.”

Only then did the Styx Ancestor reveal his request.

Ling Yun said generously, "This matter is simple. However, you should think carefully. If I want to examine the Dao within you, I must examine your soul. Aren't you afraid that I might discover some unspeakable secrets within your soul?"

The Styx Ancestor said nonchalantly, "What could possibly be a secret between us? However, if you find out about my love life, don't tell anyone, it'll be too embarrassing!"

Ling Yun smiled calmly.

"You actually believed me? I was just kidding. I don't even need to examine your soul. You only need to send out a thought, and I can immediately determine whether it is the true Dao of the Time Law!"

The Styx Ancestor found it hard to believe.

"Really... just a thought? How is that possible? If that's the case, then your current cultivation level must have reached the point of destroying the world."

Ling Yun humbly replied, "You can't say that. However, after I comprehended the Great Dao of Spacetime, my cultivation has surpassed that of the Heavenly Dao Saints of yesteryear. Now, even if the Heavenly Dao stood before me, he would be no match for me. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to ascend to this Heavenly Realm at all!"

The Styx Ancestor understood this principle, which is why he chose to tell Ling Yun the truth.

Whether it's the will of Heaven or a Creator whose wounds haven't healed.

None of them are a match for the Human Ancestor Lingyun right now.

If Ling Yun were willing to help him verify the Great Dao of Spacetime and guide him to enlightenment, it wouldn't be impossible for him to follow Ling Yun to destroy the Heavenly Dao and the Creator.

"Alright, I'll send out a thought now, and you can help me sense it carefully!"

"Ancestor Styx, please don't be in a hurry. I can help you examine the laws of spacetime, but before that, you have to do me a small favor!"

"Tell me, Ancestor Lingyun, what do you need my help with? I will definitely do it for you!"

Ling Yun paused for a moment.

"Ancestor Styx, I want you to help me obtain the Star Sword. I know that the Rakshasa Blood Demon who now controls the Blood Sea of ​​Xisha is your former lover. If you go, we can avoid a great battle and save some time. You know, we ancient gods of the primordial era don't have much time left!"

The Styx Ancestor suddenly appeared very troubled.

“Ancestor Lingyun, it’s not that I don’t want to help you, but that Rakshasa Blood Demon hated me back then because of love, and has already fallen into the demonic path. It will probably not be easy to get her to hand over the Star Sword.”

Ling Yun reminded him, "Ancestor Styx, you know I absolutely must obtain this Star Sword. It's better for you to go than for me to go myself; at least your lover's life will be spared!"
