Chapter 196: Minghe Enters the Consciousness Space

Minghe took a step forward, and immediately saw rolling waves of blood surging.

Appearing before him was, unexpectedly, an endless Sea of Blood.

After calming his mind slightly, Minghe's eyes suddenly brightened.

Consciousness Space; this was the internal Consciousness Space of the Sea of Blood.

Except for the lack of the Asura Clan, it was no different from the Sea of Blood in the Netherworld.

With just a single thought in his mind, he could instantly return to the original Sea of Blood.

Before Minghe could even examine his surroundings in detail, he felt a familiar fluctuation in the distance.

That aura was one he had felt deep within the Netherworld before; he had not expected it to be related to this place as well.

"It truly is a great opportunity for me!" Minghe leaped up and sped toward the direction from which the fluctuation came.

As he drew closer, a thick aura of Reincarnation rushed toward him.

"The Six Paths Reincarnation Disk!" With a loud shout, Minghe landed steadily amidst a pile of ruins.

Amidst the collapsed wreckage, a broken disk lay tilted in the void, emitting faint yin and yang energy.

Minghe approached, extended his right hand, and a faint will emerged from it, wrapping around the Six Paths Reincarnation Disk before him.

The moment the two energies collided, Minghe's entire body shook, and his eyes were filled with astonishment.

"The Earthly Dao!"

Minghe shouted, then couldn't help but mutter in a low voice: "So I am not some Heavenly Dao Saint after all; the Earthly Dao is my true belonging!"

Yet, after saying this, a sense of bewilderment rose in Minghe's heart.

When he first became a Saint, he had sworn an oath to the Heavenly Dao, and the merit he received also came from the Heavenly Dao.

Minghe was very clear that he had achieved sainthood entirely because of the Heavenly Dao, yet now he had a faint resonance with the Six Paths of Reincarnation.

With a dark expression, Minghe looked up at the firmament; his path to sainthood seemed to contain many secrets.

Originally just a casual glance, Minghe's figure suddenly paused, and he looked up in shock.

Through the dim firmament, one could vaguely see a towering divine mountain standing tall, radiating a vast and ancient aura.

This unexpected discovery left Minghe feeling quite surprised.

After glancing at the Six Paths Reincarnation Disk on the side, Minghe rose and fled toward the majestic divine mountain.

He intended to explore this space first, and then return to study the Six Paths Reincarnation Disk later.

Before long, Minghe saw a rolling river of blood lying ahead, with a mysterious stone bridge spanning the void above it.

"The Wangchuan River?" A look of surprise appeared on Minghe's face.

Just as he approached, he saw blood waves surging in the river, and hissing, roaring sounds came from it.

In his astonished gaze, a massive figure emerged from the trickling blood water.

"Fierce Beast Hou?" Minghe was stunned, looking in shock at the creature before him that was emitting thick Malevolent Qi.

The Hou was not originally famous in the Primordial World, but after following the Stone Man of Buzhou Mountain, it became known to everyone in the Primordial World overnight.

This fellow was Tian Yuan's pet; how was it now in the Sea of Blood Consciousness Space?

Minghe looked at the towering divine mountain in the distance, and a thought flashed through his mind: the mysterious space at Mount Buzhou.

By coming through the Sea of Blood, it had actually connected to that space; Minghe's eyes immediately lit up.

The Hou, having crawled out of the Wangchuan River, also looked at the approaching Minghe in astonishment.

It was one thing for one of the few people in the Primordial World to have achieved sainthood to appear in the Consciousness Space, but it was quite strange that the other party had clearly come from the Netherworld. Although the Hou was confident in its own strength, Minghe was now a Saint, and it was not arrogant enough to act recklessly to that extent.

Without the slightest hesitation, it dove straight into the Wangchuan River and disappeared.

Minghe was just about to make a move, not expecting the Hou to be so fast. He swept his Divine Sense out wildly, but the other party's trail was already gone.

He tried to track the Hou's lingering aura, only to find that the Wangchuan River before him was corroding his Divine Sense.

Minghe's expression shifted repeatedly; he then withdrew his Divine Sense, suppressed his aura, and zipped toward the space above.

Since hearing of Tian Yuan's reputation, he had only had one encounter with the other party, which was the first battle in the Primordial World after he became a Saint, yet he had been easily crushed by that Stone Man.

Minghe guessed in his heart that the great secret shrouding Tian Yuan might be related to this space; if he could steal it... As he thought this, Minghe felt a surge of excitement, but having alerted the Fierce Beast Hou, he didn't have much time left; Tian Yuan might appear at any moment.

"Hmm?" Tian Yuan, who was meditating on Mount Buzhou, opened his eyes faintly, his face showing astonishment.

A faint will rose, and Tian Yuan's figure disappeared, arriving in the Buzhou Mountain Consciousness Space.

"It really is this fellow Minghe." This was his home turf, and Tian Yuan easily discovered the cautious Minghe.

With the Earth Veins being cleared one after another, plus the revival of Humanity and the Earthly Dao, the will of Mount Buzhou already covered a vast area; Minghe had nowhere to hide.

If he hadn't been in seclusion, calming his mind to cultivate the laws, he would have sensed the other party the moment they appeared.

Will surged from Mount Buzhou, and Tian Yuan easily sensed the changes in the Netherworld.

The Sea of Blood; it turned out the Nether Blood Sea had completely manifested, and Minghe had used this to enter the Consciousness Space.

With such a great opportunity, many thoughts raced through Tian Yuan's mind.

Tian Yuan knew very well how difficult it was to capture a Saint in the Primordial World, especially since the other party was the Ancestor Minghe.

But in the Buzhou Mountain Consciousness Space, it was different.

Not only was this his home turf, but the key was that for Minghe to appear here, it meant the vast majority of his will was here.

The Sea of Blood played a major role in the Primordial World, and Minghe had a close relationship with it; perhaps he could suppress Minghe here and use this to help Houtu seize more authority over the Earthly Dao.

The Nether Blood Sea had already manifested, and Minghe had come to this space, but Tian Yuan did not feel the revival of the Earthly Dao accelerating.

This meant that the Earthly Dao being revived through the Sea of Blood was not under Houtu's control; the one in Purple Heaven Palace was secretly competing for authority over the Earthly Dao.

Thinking this, Tian Yuan flicked his right hand in the void, and suddenly a figure stood before him.

"Dao Brother!" Houtu, who had appeared, looked at Tian Yuan in confusion.

Tian Yuan had preached on Mount Buzhou, and Houtu had also benefited greatly. She had been meditating and gaining insights on Mount Buzhou, not expecting to be summoned by Tian Yuan in an instant.

But before Tian Yuan could reply, Houtu suddenly turned her head to look in the direction of the Netherworld.

"The Sea of Blood has manifested, Minghe is here!" Houtu exclaimed loudly, her delicate face filled with shock and suspicion.

While on the Great Primordial land, she could not sense it clearly, but the moment she arrived in the Consciousness Space, Houtu perceived the anomaly in the Netherworld immediately.

The complete manifestation of the Sea of Blood was within their expectations, but that Minghe could actually use this to reach the Consciousness Space truly left Houtu somewhat shocked.

After all, the dojo of the Three Pure Ones, Kunlun Mountain, had manifested long ago, yet the Three Pure Ones had not been seen appearing for such a long time.

"Correct! This is a prime opportunity to suppress Minghe!" Tian Yuan nodded, his eyes gleaming with light.

He could naturally take down Minghe easily by himself, but the Sea of Blood had already manifested, and Minghe was related to the Earthly Dao, so calling upon Houtu would ensure a greater chance of success; moreover, suppressing Minghe was also for Houtu's sake.

Houtu instantly grasped the key to this, and naturally, she nodded repeatedly.

"Let's go!"

Tian Yuan did not hesitate, and taking Houtu with him, he strode toward a certain space.
