The glorious deeds of Ye Xiu were widely spread in the chaos era, hailed as something divine.

At that time, outside the thirty-three days, within the Purple Cloud Palace, Hongjun stood surrounded by celestial clouds, brimming with profound Dao rhythms. He opened up countless doors to wonders and was using the Butterfly of Creation to calculate seven or eight tenths of the events of the current era.

Following the original trajectory, there should only be one sage in this era of chaos - him.

But now that Ye Xiu had awakened and returned, he naturally gave rise to endless possibilities.

Hongjun looked around the chaos with his eyes, observing the world with his gaze, concentrating his unfathomable power to try and glimpse a trace of destiny.

In that blurry scene, he could only see a tall and straight figure standing between heaven and earth, but nothing else was clear.

After much calculation, Hongjun's forehead was covered in drops of sweat, and his brow remained furrowed. He had expended a tremendous amount of effort, but still, he had no results. Even though he had already achieved sainthood, he couldn't see the whole picture of destiny!

Now, Hongjun was worried.

He had an inexplicable sense of an unprecedented crisis!

...

Meanwhile, on Mount Bu Zhou, a figure dressed in white robes with flowing sleeves and cascading black hair stood on the mountaintop.

Mount Bu Zhou towered over the world, connecting the ancient starry sky, stretching billions of miles through countless galaxies. From a distance, Ye Xiu appeared to be surrounded by countless stars, like a high and mighty god.

By his side, Minghe, the old ancestor of the Nether River, lowered his head and held a sword box, looking up at the towering figure before him with a shocked expression, full of reverence.

After a long while, Ye Xiu slowly opened his eyes, his expression changing constantly, feeling a little emotional in his heart.

After a period of contemplation, he searched through the long river of endless years, gaining insight into the past and learning many things.

Among them, his former mount, the once-fierce Beast Emperor Shen Ni, had perished in the Great Tribulation. Even the once-dominant Savage Beast Dynasty had been destroyed in a single dynasty!

And behind the scenes, countless innate gods and demons had been pushing and manipulating things. Naturally, Hongjun was among them...

After that, the Three Primordial Races rose to prominence and dominated the era of chaos.

But the good times didn't last. Hongjun and other primordial gods and demons, in order to comply with the will of heaven, once again plotted against the three primordial tribes, unleashing a calamity that buried billions of lives.

They even blamed all their crimes on Luo Hou, publicly condemning the demon race.

In that battle, the spiritual veins of the Western Continent were destroyed, Mount Sumeru collapsed, and billions of demon lives perished.

Since the beginning of time, the chaos of the world has experienced three calamities, with countless lives lost, blood flowing like rivers, and corpses everywhere. The heavens and earth mourned.

Most of the primordial gods and demons also perished one by one...

Hongjun, on the other hand, became the biggest winner and ascended to become the first saint of the chaos.

In order to attain the Dao, he even transformed into the Ancestor of the Dao and imparted his teachings at the Purple Heaven Palace three times, each lasting three thousand years, adding up to the extreme number of nine, in accordance with the will of heaven.

"The once inconspicuous Hongjun... to be able to attain sainthood in such a short time and possess the supreme power to move the fate of all living beings, is truly not simple," Ye Xiu exclaimed, his eyes shining with brilliance, able to make the sun, moon, and stars disappear with a single glance.

All living beings have their own fate, and for all the past events... Ye Xiu didn't bother to delve into them.

After all, he had secluded himself for countless years in order to comprehend the Dao.

However!

Now that he has awakened...

Whether it's Hongjun or the will of heaven, they should hand over the control of this world to him, and let him dominate the rise and fall!

As his thoughts churned, Ye Xiu turned to look at the River of Styx, lightly brushing his sleeve and sending a handful of dark soil to the surface of the river.

This piece of black soil exuded a strange chaotic aura, rising with the wind and emitting a black glow that lit up the ancient starry sky, causing even the River of Styx to widen its eyes in amazement.

"This is the Chaos Qi Soil, born in the ancient chaos. Compared to the Nine Heavens Qi Soil of the chaos, it has infinite uses. It can shape living beings and create your own forces in the Blood Sea, waiting for me to arrange things in the chaos and send you to execute them," Ye Xiu explained in just a few words, revealing his grand plan and directing the River of Styx to establish the Asura clan!

You should know that in the future, until Nuwa created humans and achieved enlightenment, Minghe was the first to create the Asura clan, attempting to achieve enlightenment through this means.

Although he ultimately failed to achieve enlightenment, the Asura clan still became a significant force under Minghe's leadership!

Now, Ye Xiu wants to plan for the chaos and seize control of heaven and earth from Hongjun's hands. He can't do everything himself, so he needs a force to deploy.

After a moment of absent-mindedness, Minghe suddenly realized something, and his eyes burst with excitement. He gratefully received the chaos breath earth and fell to the ground, kowtowing repeatedly in joy: "Thank you, Master, for giving me the opportunity to create something. I know what to do now!"

"Go then..."

Ye Xiu's lips curled slightly, and he spoke calmly.

"Yes, Master!"

After speaking, Minghe rode a bloody rainbow and flew back to the endless sea of blood.

Watching Minghe's figure disappear into the distance, Ye Xiu's smile grew more intense.

He believed that Minghe had the chaos breath earth and would soon create a powerful force that was no less formidable than the future Asura clan!

Ye Xiu knew that after Hongjun's three teachings, he would take on six disciples and establish the Xuanmen tradition. He would truly swallow up the entire chaos, using the lives of billions of beings as chess pieces to manipulate all destinies!

And Ye Xiu's existence was to restrain Hongjun's development and take over the heavens and earth in place of the heavenly path.

...

Collecting his thoughts, Ye Xiu subconsciously looked down at Mount Buzhou and locked his gaze on a figure, his face showing a hint of amusement: "Taking disciples...I will do that too."
