"Zhurong, we must not be careless!" Dijiang immediately rebuked.
"The Zhou Tian Star Array is not simple, but the Heavenly Court cannot fully unleash its power at this moment. This time, we must eliminate this threat forever and eradicate it completely!" Zhu Jiuyin also spoke up. Having reviewed the timeline countless times, Zhu Jiuyin knew that the demon race was the great enemy of the witch race. In any case, in the end, there would be a battle between the witch and the demon race.
Now that the demon race is the core of the Heavenly Court, the strength of the Heavenly Court leads to the strength of the demon race. Therefore, this battle is a battle between the witch race and the Heavenly Court.
Now that the Heavenly Court has suffered a major defeat at the Netherworld Blood Sea, its fortune has been greatly damaged, and its morale is low, it is the perfect opportunity for them to launch a campaign against the Heavenly Court.
"Understood!" Zhu Rong could only reply, and then continued practicing the Twelve Capital Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation.
Time passed, and before long, the deadline set by the Dao Ancestor for ending the war had completely passed.
At this moment, the primordial world was incredibly calm, but beneath the calm lay unimaginable turbulent waves. At this moment, most of the great supernatural beings in the primordial world knew that another incredibly terrifying battle was about to begin.
The truce between the Witch Clan and the Demon Clan has ended. Given the strength of both sides, without the restraint of the Sage, another great war is inevitable.
The impending great battle brought an eerie silence to the primordial world, and most of the great supernatural beings among the three thousand guests of Zixiao also fell silent, awaiting the outcome of this battle.
In the eyes of most of the prehistoric beings who were unaware of the inside story and the true strength of the Wu and Yao races, the Wu race was undoubtedly inferior to the Heavenly Court at this moment. After all, although the Twelve Ancestral Witches had powerful physical bodies, they did not have primordial spirits and could not use spiritual treasures. So what if they had powerful physical bodies?
Although the Wu Clan won last time, it was because of their numerical advantage. But now the Heavenly Court has eleven Quasi-Saints, including Taiyi, Tongtian, and Laozi, who have a huge gap with other great supernatural beings. It can be said that even without the Zhou Tian Star Array, the Heavenly Court's Quasi-Saints, who are famous throughout the prehistoric world, will undoubtedly win.
As for the Eastern King Duke—he might not be able to exert his full strength against the powerful beings of the Heavenly Court.
However, the beings of the primordial world dared not assert that the Heavenly Court would achieve such a victory.
Because of the River Styx.
Defeating the Heavenly Court single-handedly, breaking the Zhou Tian Star Array, and forcing the Heavenly Emperor to issue a decree of self-reproach was something unimaginable for all living beings in the prehistoric world. After that battle, the Styx River became a powerful force in the prehistoric world. The Wu Clan's path of "Earth Immortals" originated from the Styx River, and the Styx River is still the "Wizard" of the Wu Clan.
What if Styx intervenes?
The powerful beings of Heaven were already unable to deal with the Styx River, so how could they possibly handle it when combined with the Witch Clan?
Is this the lineup of the Celestial Court?
At this moment, however, the malevolent energy of the entire prehistoric world began to rise and then headed straight for Mount Buzhou. Mount Buzhou was the spine of Pangu, and many of its earth veins were connected to the earth veins of the prehistoric world, so it could naturally transport and gather the malevolent energy of the entire prehistoric world.
As for who gathered this malevolent energy—it was naturally the Twelve Ancestral Witches, and only they could do such a thing.
In the Thirty-Three Heavens, a group of powerful beings gathered once again, numbering in the dozens. The six Heavenly Emperors, three Great Emperors, two Heavenly Empresses, and a host of demon gods—in short, almost all the powerful beings from the Heavenly Court who survived the last battle against Styx were present.
"Fellow Daoists, the primordial calamity is surging, it is truly a time of great turmoil, and another great battle is imminent." The Primordial Eye of Dharma pierced through time and space, looking at the boundless baleful aura rising from Mount Buzhou, and sighed.
It was a sigh, an uncontrollable anger, a doubt, and an imperceptible fear.
Yuanshi was naturally extremely intelligent. He had been pondering whether the Wu Clan would go to war with them, but now that the war was about to begin, Yuanshi had many doubts. The reason was simple: on paper, the Wu Clan was no match for their Heavenly Court, and the Celestial Court was no different. Yet the Twelve Ancestral Witches still came—why?
"Second brother, do you have any doubts?" Just then, Yuanshi heard Laozi transmit his voice.
As expected, nothing can be hidden from my elder brother. Yuan Shi sighed inwardly. He remained outwardly calm, and no one could see anything amiss, but his elder brother could see the doubt in his heart. He then transmitted his voice: "Do we have some flaws?"
Or has the Witch Clan found some trump card that guarantees their victory over us?
At this moment, Yuanshi was very worried that Styx would take advantage of the situation to attack the Heavenly Court in this battle. From their standpoint, this was inevitable. They and Styx were already sworn enemies. Last time, Styx did not kill them, probably because it was mindful of the Dao Ancestor and their merits in creating the world. But would Styx really let go of this opportunity to make the Heavenly Court lose face?
"It's alright, we'll meet force with force and water with earth." Laozi secretly reassured Yuanshi, "Even if the Styx River really wants to make a move, what can they do?"
Could they possibly abandon the Heavenly Court?
If that's the case, putting aside the karmic repercussions, how will the beings of the primordial world view them? The Styx River hasn't even made a move yet, and they're already fleeing in a panic. If the Styx River really does make a move, will they still have to turn against them and surrender with courtesy?
"Perfect, perfect."
Those people are filled with murderous intent; how could they be good people?
"Let it be used to sacrifice to the Heavenly Court's Zhou Tian Xing Dou Grand Array!" At this moment, Di Jun stepped forward and said to the crowd.
"At this moment, the Zhou Tian Star Array is no ordinary formation. If the twelve Ancestral Witches come together, they will only be courting death!" Taiyi said in the same way. After their defeat last time, they were spurred on by their shame and did their best to improve the Zhou Tian Star Array. Although many Heavenly Court beings fled, the entire prehistoric world is so vast, is it lacking in beings persecuted by the Witch Clan?
Those beings joined the demon race and the Heavenly Court because they had no other choice but to join under the oppressive rule of the witch race. In this era where only demons and witches were consumed by blood, they had nowhere else to go if they left the Heavenly Court!
"Such malevolent energy has been stirred up, causing chaos in the primordial world. This is truly unbearable. We should seek out the Twelve Ancestral Witches and ask them about it."
Zhen Yuanzi said.
The hatred for obstructing the path is irreconcilable. Why did the original Kunpeng hate Hongyun so much?
The reason is simple: he saw the glory of the saints, and in his heart, he should have been just as glorious. But all of this was caused by Hongyun's foolish kindness, and his advancement was ultimately in vain.
What's even more infuriating is that Hongyun himself obtained another wisp of Primordial Purple Qi, which Kunpeng could not tolerate.
But at this moment, Zhen Yuanzi felt the same way about Styx. Styx and the Wu Clan had both stolen his title as the Ancestor of Earthly Immortals. Having witnessed Styx's strength, and knowing full well that a large part of his strength came from his plunder, how could Zhen Yuanzi not hate him?
"Let's go together, let's go together, and see how the witch clan explains themselves!"
