I’m Actually a Cultivation Bigshot

Chapter 457: I Can’t Afford To Miss This Battle!

“Caught me?”

Styx Laozu was not anxious. He smiled coldly at the crowd. “By you guys?”

If his formation was yet to be completed and if he was not waiting for them here willingly, nobody would catch him unless a Saint stepped in.

He had countless Blood Clones which were his clones. Who could catch him?

Styx Laozu glared at the crowd. He said calmly, “Jade Emperor, Empress, Yang Jing. Is this all you’ve got from the Heavenly Temple?”

The Jade Emperor and Empress were both late-Quasi Saints just like him. Yang Jing was an early-Quasi Saint while Mosquito Taoist was a mid-Quasi-Saint. If they fought, both parties would be equally as powerful.

The Jade Emperor said, “Of course not!”

With that said, Mosquito Taoist who was by Styx Laozu’s side jumped up abruptly. With a gesture, countless blood-red lights shot toward Styx Laozu.

Unfortunately, before the light could touch Styx Laozu, a bloody lotus appeared and blocked the lights out.

“How childish! With our current ranking, you tried to have a surprise attack?” Styx Laozu scoffed. He pointed his finger at Mosquito Taoist. Yuan Tu and Abi, the bloody swords, rose like two vipers. They lashed at Mosquito Taoist!

Mosquito Taoist had three golden lotuses floating by the side. She blocked out the two bloody swords and staggered backward.

“Well, very well!” Styx Laozu’s eyes were glinting with violence. “Mosquito! I can’t believe you cheated on me! Well, then! I didn’t intend to keep you anyway! Bloody Sea Formation…up!”

Styx Laozu laughed wildly and with a gesture, the ground below his feet lit up in a bloody glow. It formed a gigantic and unique picture. In the next moment, blood-red lights shot up to the sky and formed sky-high pillars.

Vroom!

Not only in this land, but the countless lands surrounding them had bloody pillars reaching upward. The bloody red glow filled the sky. If one looked from afar, this patch of sky looked as if it was covered in a layer of bloody mist. It was like a gigantic bloody egg!

“Since you’ve all gathered here, I don’t even have to look for you now! You shall all die!” Styx Laozu said coldly. With that said, the Bloody Sea rushed up from under his feet. The Bloody Sea came from the deepest abyss, from the bottom of hell. As they emerged, a strong scent of hatred and violence rushed toward the sky. The sky instantly changed color.

Whoosh!

The Bloody Sea rippled. At this moment, the bloody pillars thickened. On top of them, patterns appeared. The patterns looked like veins. They moved around the pillars, making the pillars appear as if they were alive. They became part of his body.

Whoosh!

The Bloody Sea was boundless. They came from the Underworld to the ordinary realm and then upward to the sky through the pillars. Following that, they leaked out from the pillars and then floated upward gradually.

The entire ordinary realm was messed up. If one looked up from the ground, the Bloody Sea was gradually reaching up as if…forming a Bloody River in the sky! A Bloody River!

It was like a curtain hanging in the sky, blinding the ordinary realm in blood.

The Jade Emperor’s face changed. He could feel something off of Styx Laozu’s body. He panicked and growled, “Styx, what have you done!?”

This was such a big movement! He could affect the expert!

“What have I done? Jade Emperor, you’ve been a book-boy of Dao Zu for countless years. Do you know what’s the realm above Daluo Golden Immortal?”

Styx Laozu smiled with satisfaction as he said, “It’s called the Chaos Daluo Golden Immortal! And now, I’m about to level up! You’re all in luck since you get to witness this miracle moment! Ha-ha-ha…”

Meanwhile, the Empress saw two figures in the Bloody Sea. Her pupils dilated and her organs shivered. She cried out, “That…that…that…”

“That’s the bodies of Saint Cundi and Saint Jie Yin!” The Jade Emperor’s voice was shivering as well. He could only feel his scalp go numb and his hair standing.

Saint Cundi and Saint Jie Yin. Those were the two big Saints of Buddhism. However, they were killed by Demon God Luohu. Their bodies were not rotten yet. Who would have thought that Styx Laozu would get a hold of them?

Furthermore… Styx Laozu was even trying to engulf the Saints with the Bloody Sea. This was too insane!

“Is this the feeling of becoming a Chaos Daluo Golden Immortal?”

Styx Laozu could feel the power rippling inside his body. His body was expanding. At this moment, it seemed as if he had blended in with the Bloody Sea. The Bloody Sea had become his body. Through the Bloody Sea, he could clearly feel everything the Bloody Sea was touching in the world.

At this moment, he became the sky. He embodied the Path!

So powerful! So fascinating!

“Everyone, attack!”

The Jade Emperor felt chills facing Styx Laozu. He dared not waste any more time. They attacked all at once, casting all kinds of spells at Styx Laozu.

“Ha-ha, with the power of ants, you’re all still trying to fight me?” Styx Laozu smiled coldly. Instantly, a gigantic bloody palm slapped the crowd.

All of the attacks vanished under this palm. The palm did not slow down. It sent them all flying away!

The Jade Emperor and the rest were surrounded by the bloody sea. Their protective armors were glowing as they defended themselves against the rippling Bloody Sea. In the surrounding area, the overwhelming Killing Qi pressed into them. If the ordinary Immortals or even a Daluo Golden Immortal were here, they would have been killed by this deadly Qi!

Luckily, the Jade Emperor and the rest had the Ultimate Protective Armor.

Daji’s face turned cold. With a gesture, the golden Eastern Bell appeared and rang on top of the Killing Qi. The bell let out a loud ring.

The Jade Emperor had a pagoda above his head while the Empress had the Painting around her. Fire Phoenix took out the Flaming Flag. With a wave, the countless flames became her shield.

Deified Dog took out his dog bowl and held it above his and Yang Jing’s head. “Master, don’t worry, I’ll protect you!”

Yang Jing did not look well. He was a new Quasi-Saint. He should be powerful but he did not have strong protective armor. He even needed protection from his dog!

“Styx, what do you mean? You want me dead, too?” Qiongqi flapped its wings, exuding its demonic power as it tried to withstand this boundless Killing Qi. It had many wounds on its body. It called out to Styx Laozu.

“Come one, you and I are both demons! It’s best if we become one to join forces!” Styx Laozu laughed out loud. The bloody water formed into a tentacle and like a long whip, it lashed out like lightning and stabbed Qiongqi!

When the crowd saw that Qiongqi was not going to make it, they called out, “Hurry! Protect the expert’s food! We must keep it fresh!”

Yang Jing had three swords and two knives. With a chop, he sliced the tentacle. The Jade Emperor quickly dragged the pagoda over to Qiongqi and placed him inside.

‘Me? Food?’

Qiongqi was weakened. It did not know whether to cry or smile.

Styx Laozu wanted to eat it, and the Jade Emperor and the rest were trying to save it because someone ordered it as food?

‘Why does everyone want to eat me?

‘I’m a Natural Beast! Since when did I become a dish? What’s wrong with this world?’

“What a bunch of fools! Up until now, all you care about is your food? You stand no chance! Die!” Styx Laozu said mockingly. The bloody ripples gathered into a gigantic palm that blocked the sunlight. It came from the sky and was about to land on the crowd.

Compared to the Bloody Sea, the crowd was too tiny. They were like small boats in a massive ocean. They could flip over at any time.

Whoosh!

In the sky, the waves of the Bloody Sea were smashing and splashing as if a demon was roaring.

In the ordinary realm, any ordinary person or cultivator that watched the sky felt helpless. Countless people were hiding in their homes. Some were hiding in the City God Temples or some other temples. They were all praying.

Some cultivators even bit their tongue and rushed into the Bloody Sea. They wanted to use their weakened power in hopes of minimizing the power of the Bloody Sea.

“Amitabha.”

Jiechi was looking solemn. With countless other monks, they exuded Buddhist Light with a golden glow behind their heads. They rushed into the Bloody Sea and gathered into a big Buddha. They tried to fight against it.

In the Underworld, Meng Po’s face jolted. She gathered the Onis in the Styx. They exuded all their powers and were prepared to repress the Bloody Sea from its source!

Meng Po had a look of shock in her eyes. She said in disbelief, “Styx is displaying…the power of a Saint!”

On the surface of the Eastern Sea.

There were sudden ripples all over with sounds of cracking. A gigantic dragon lashed out toward the Bloody Sea’s skyline. It was followed by limitless ocean water.

The ocean water formed a majestic sight of a dragon-sucking-water, formed in hopes of drowning out this bloody sky.

In the surroundings, Xiao Chengfeng and Ye Liuyun led many Heavenly Soldiers as they rushed into the bloody river. They killed all the Blood Clones and Asuras.

“Stay alert, everyone!”

Xiao Chengfeng drew his longsword and went into the battlefield. He killed all of the Blood Clones and growled out loud, “I cannot afford to miss this battle!”

Behind him, a bunch of Heavenly Soldiers cried out after him, “I cannot afford to miss this battle!”

“Ha-ha-ha, well! This is the right attitude! Follow me!” Xiao Chengfeng laughed as he raised his sword and rose to the sky!

Ye Liuyun was on the other side. This time, he did not talk back to Xiao Chengfeng. In fact, he cried out loud, “Brothers, we cannot afford to miss this battle!”

“We cannot afford to miss this battle!”

This was heard ringing from all directions like thunder. The words resonated in the air for a long while.

More and more people got involved. Their powers did not matter as they hated the bloody sky just as much. A boundless source of power gathered into a massive palm, pressing toward this bloody sky!

Yang Jing looked at Deified Dog who was holding up for him. He suddenly said, “Deified, I don’t need your protection yet.”

Deified Dog looked at Yang Jing worryingly. He said determinedly, “Master, don’t overthink. This dog bowl was given by the expert. He blessed it with Deluxe Merit twice. It’s strong, nothing can break it!”

“Well, then. Protect yourself with this!” Yang Jing said and with a flash, he blended with the Bloody Sea. The third eye on his forehead opened up and started to glow. He held his knife in hand and waved it around as he slashed at the Bloody Sea!

Deified Dog panicked. “Master!”

“You’re asking for death!” Styx Laozu’s eyes narrowed. He was full of Killing Qi. “The rebellious ants are so funny! Did the catastrophe that caused the Absolute Era not teach you a lesson?

“You shall melt in my Bloody Sea!”

Vroom!

The Bloody Sea between the sky and the ground roared like a wild beast. It was as if the sky was angered. Thunder roared in the sky as if it was ready to engulf everything.

Yang Jing was sent flying by a big wave. He spat out fresh blood. He was instantly beaten up.

The Protective Armors on the crowd were weakening as well. It seemed that they could vanish at any time.

“Ha-ha-ha, ha-ha-ha…”

Along with Styx Laozu’s wild laughter, his body was gradually blending with the Bloody Sea. As it rippled, it transformed into a gigantic bloody man.

The bloody man was as tall as the sky, exuding an extreme Killing Qi. It was so powerful and cruel, it dimmed out the rest of the world.

“The power of a Chaos Daluo Golden Immortal…”

Styx Laozu’s voice resounded and it was as if the sky was speaking. The world was shaking with his voice in everyone’s ears.

“I finally understand why the Heavenly Path repels demons. Once I kill everything in this world, my Killing Path will be complete! Ha-ha-ha, soon! Soon!”

…

In the four-part architecture.

Li Nianfan was sitting in his yard.

He looked up at the bloody sky. He felt unsettled and worried.

This was so overwhelming. He could even describe it as the end of the world! Daji and Fire Phoenix went ahead to take care of it. How could they take care of it?

They were not a match for this at all!

He pursed his lips and could not help saying, “Xiao Bai, based on this, do you think this Bloody Sea will calm down?”

Xiao Bai looked at the sky, its eyes glowing as if analyzing the Bloody Sea.

It then said, “If master would like it, Xiao Bai could purify this sky that has been tainted by blood.”

Bam!

Li Nianfan knocked Xiao Bai’s head. He could not help smiling and shaking his head. “What a stupid robot. Do you think this is some ordinary sewage water? Be careful, you might crash from purifying this!”

He took a deep breath and looked at the sky.

The sky had many lights rising up to it, shooting at the Bloody Sea. The powers were strong and they were like fireworks in the sky, short and bright.

In the air, he could vaguely hear some unwilling roaring from the sky.

These were the countless cultivators fighting against the sky. They were fighting against their fate!

Li Nianfan watched with excitement. He was moved. This was a majestic sight. He used to only watch and read about this at the endings of movies and novels. Now that he was in it, of course, he was emotional.

Unfortunately, there was nothing he could do. He could only wish them the best.

“Daji, get me some ink.”

As he spoke, he jolted. He shook his head bitterly and said, “Whatever, I’ll do it myself, then.”

He laid out the paper, prepared the ink, and picked up the brush.

Li Nianfan let out a long sigh. Then, his brush gradually landed…

This time, he wrote very slowly, very solemnly.

‘After one endures the storms and rains, one can see the clear skies and moon!’
