In ordinary confrontations, one must either make a decision and then act, or one can take action at the first glance.
However, due to the magic of fate, the long and thrilling battle between Gu Cheng and the mastermind behind the scenes continued to provoke the enemy into making moves.
So far, the two sides have not met, but they are constantly forcing each other's trump cards.
In the battle between Hongmeng and Xuanhuang, six powerful men attacked Hunyuan at the same time, Gu Cheng's body and soul were separated, and when he opened up the demon world, he had actually used up all his trump cards.
But after entering the demon world, Gu Cheng cultivated the power of his physical body, created the Nine Transformations of Gods and Demons, and briefly used the origin of Hongmeng to gain new trump cards.
On the other hand, the mastermind behind the scenes arranged a back-up plan in the demon world. The Styx Ancestor was suppressed, the Angel Legion was held back, the passage of time changed drastically, and a delaying strategy was adopted. Gu Cheng even began to refine the power of the Pangu Ax, and got a first glimpse of the path of destiny. .
With such pressure on each other step by step, the mastermind behind the scenes, Guizhou Donkey, has run out of skills.
It was still the lesser of two evils, and it had to play a new trump card.
God's evil comes with force
“Great opportunity has come”
Gu Cheng immediately felt that the pressure on Queen Mother Xi had been relieved a lot.
Don't underestimate this change, it can affect your life or death.
Attacking Hunyuan is an extremely dangerous thing. The mastermind behind the scenes, Pangu Ax himself, attacked many Hunyuan Taoist ancestors. The shadow of the ax was divided into six and slashed at the six attackers. It was equivalent to another howling cold wind blowing on the edge of a cliff. , heart-piercing and bone-piercing.
However, if this danger is used properly, it can also lead to death and survival.
The six Queen Mothers of the West are not as strong as Gu Cheng, and even the Great Master of Xuandu is less than half sure. Under normal circumstances, no more than three of them can succeed.
For example, the Queen Mother of the West and the Empress Houtu are likely to lose one of them.
But in the confrontation and tug-of-war with the divine power of Pangu Ax, they also had the opportunity to absorb part of the power to control their origin and achieve success.
Misfortunes are where blessings depend, and blessings are where misfortunes lie.
Of course, this is just an assumption. First of all, Pangu Ax must be weakened, otherwise nothing can be done.
Now, the mastermind behind the scenes turns his target to Gu Cheng and sends out the evil ones. This is the best time.
"This is the life born purely from the aura of the end of the law after the destruction of the world."
At this moment, Ancestor Styx stretched out his hand to grab it, but was unable to stop it. He could only watch the evil being fall into this world and disappear in an instant, his eyes flashing.
"Yes, the evil gods are orthodox creatures of the apocalypse. The original intention of the mastermind behind the scenes is to make you the leader of the evil gods, form an army, and destroy the last world of heavens."
Gu Cheng joked: "Chief thug, how do you feel?"
Although Patriarch Minghe is the weakest Hunyuan, he has unique characteristics. He was born from the Heavenly Dao of the Ending Law and the environment of the demon world. He can control the huge Qi of the Ending Law, just like the Hunyuan Dao Ancestor controls the origin.
That's why the mastermind behind the scenes planned to let Ancestor Styx control the gods. He is like a country's military general. Once he is in place, the king does not need to do everything personally.
"Should I be sent by him?"
Ancestor Styx snorted coldly.
Hunyuan Dao Ancestor has his own pride. Compared with Gu Cheng, Ancestor Ming He is certainly at a disadvantage, but after all, he is an opponent of the same level and will never surrender to other beings.
The confrontation during this period of time made Patriarch Styx extremely frightened by the power of Pangu Ax. As a result, he felt even more like a formidable enemy against the mastermind behind the deadly threat.
Fear is often the key to cooperation.
"The apocalyptic energy in your body and the evil spirits are of the same origin. These evil spirits seem to be here to invade the demon world, but in fact their ultimate target is you."
Gu Cheng shook his head: "Use your own spear to attack your own shield. These evil beings are specially selected by the mastermind behind the scenes. After possessing the creatures in this world, they are not only harmless, but also like the top treasures of heaven and earth, which can make them...
Your strength is improving by leaps and bounds, and you will soon reach the realm of ascension. At that time, your Styx will be accepted or not."
Ancestor Styx's expression changed.
In the realm of Hunyuan Dao, there are very few beings who can restrain them. However, the ancestor of Styx is too closely related to this world and is subject to checks and balances. If he refuses the ascended generation to integrate into Styx, then the Law-ending Heavenly Dao will not tolerate him.
Success is Xiao He, failure is Xiao He
Realizing this, Patriarch Styx asked: "What can you do?"
"There are two ways"
Gu Cheng pondered for a moment and said: "First, resist fate, control the evil, and let the mastermind behind the scenes lose his wife and soldiers."
Ancestor Minghe was startled and looked thoughtful.
Gu Chengdao: "In these days, you have suffered so many axes, and you have gained a lot of knowledge on how to resist fate. When the evil spirits enter the Styx, you accept them all, tame them, and become your subordinates."
"
Ancestor Styx weighed it for a moment, and finally sighed: "I can't do it."
After this period of confrontation, Ancestor Styx has long been self-aware.
His background and knowledge are far inferior to Gu Chenglai's, and Gu Cheng's understanding of the way of destiny is still superficial, so he is undoubtedly inferior.
With just this level of cultivation, if you want to compete with the mastermind behind the scenes and control the evil spirits, you will undoubtedly bring shame on yourself.
This didn't work, so Ancestor Styx asked: "What about the second method?"
Gu Cheng said eight words: "Abandon the Styx and reincarnate as a human being
Ancestor Styx's eyes were sharp, and his murderous intention was revealed in an instant. Abiyuan Tu floated on both sides, buzzing.
Gu Cheng looked at him calmly: "Unless you are willing to be bound to this world for the rest of your life, if you want to become a true Hunyuan and travel across the heavens, you must take this step sooner or later."
The two looked at each other for a moment. Ancestor Styx restrained his anger and concealed his swords: "Yes, but not now."
He knew that what Gu Cheng said was true.
Innate achievements, although the starting point is extremely high, are also subject to limitations. This is especially true for Patriarch Styx. If he can be reincarnated, his soul will still be in the realm of Hunyuan. If he succeeds in cultivation, he will be a genuine Hunyuan Taoist. He will continue to make progress until
Transcendent hope.
But that's in the long run. There are a few people who are willing to give up their current Hunyuan power and face unknown dangers.
After all, with the Styx in hand, he is immortal. Except for Pangu's ax, other means cannot kill him. At most, he can be suppressed.
But in the process of reincarnation, the risks are too great, and there is even a possibility that the soul will be refined and destroyed.
Let Gu Cheng protect him
It's a matter of life and death. Who dares not to believe it? Even the one who is most wary is Gu Cheng.
In view of this, the Styx Ancestor shook his head and said: "What's more, even if I leave the Styx and the gods enter, a new master will still be born. How can you stop it then?"
This is not entirely an excuse.
He pulled away and walked away, but the River Styx would not disappear. If it was possessed by a divine evil, the consequences would be even more serious.
"The evil god cannot occupy the Styx. After you leave, I will refine the Styx into an incarnation."
Fortunately, when Gu Cheng proposed this method, he had a comprehensive consideration and came up with a plan that had the best of both worlds, but was a desperate one: "If I inherit the Styx, I will not murder you, and I will resist the erosion of fate and control the evil of gods.
"Army"
"This is the first step in a formal counterattack. In and out of bounds, victory or defeat, all in one fell swoop."
